Consumer Description

SPORADICALLY WHEN YOU STEP ON GAS TO ACCELERATE, IT WILL JUST "BOG DOWN" AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES BOTH AT AROUND 20 MPH OR AROUND 55 MPH. IT WILL NOT RECOVER UNLESS YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR COMPLETELY AND WAIT FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I TRIED ONCE WHEN IT DID THIS, TO JUST KEEP THE ACCELERATOR DOWN TO SEE IF IT WOULD RECOVER. IT DID NOT, IT JUST SLOWED DOWN TILL IT STOPPED.
