Consumer Description

THIS VEHICLE HAS A GENERIC PROBLEM WITH ACCELERATION: UNDER SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, ESPECIALLY AT LOW SPEED WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PUSHED HARD FOR RAPID ACCELERATION, THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE, BUT HESITATE, FOR ALMOST 2 SECONDS, BEFORE FINALLY ACCELERATING. IN SOME CIRCUMSTANCES, THIS CAN BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE: MERGING INTO (RAPIDLY MOVING) TRAFFIC, SEEKING TO CROSS AN INTERSECTION, STRIVING TO AVOID INATTENTIVE OR CARELESS DRIVERS, ETC. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS REPEATEDLY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAY IT IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE, BUT THEY ADMIT IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE. YET NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I REGARD THIS AS SO SERIOUS THAT I AM READY TO SELL THE VEHICLE (THO WE LIKE IT IN EVERY OTHER RESPECT): AN ONCOMING TRAIN, OR ANY OTHER VEHICLE TRAVELING 60 MPH, TRAVELS 176 FEET IN 2 SECONDS, WHILE WE ARE SITTING IN THE CAR GOING NOWHERE. !
