Consumer Description

STARTING APPROXIMATELY TWO WEEKS AGO MY CAR WOULD HESITATE WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP AND EITHER LURCH WHILE GOING INTO GEAR OR WOULD CUT THE ENGINE. THIS WOULD HAPPEN EVERY DAY AND I WOULD LOSE THE ENGINE BETWEEN 1 AND 10 TIMES PER DAY. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON TUESDAY, OCT 4, AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE CAM ACTUATOR SOLENOID THAT WASN'T WORKING. I KNOW THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE YEAR, MAKE L, AND MODEL FOR MY CAR BUT THE VIN ISN'T COVERED.
