Consumer Description

WHEN PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL, IT SHAKES AND HESITATES AND JUMPS/SHUTTERS FOR SEVERAL SECONDS UNTIL IT GETS UP TO A CERTAIN SPEED. THIS HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY AND BASICALLY EVERYWHERE I AM STARTING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. IT HAS ALSO STARTED HESITATING WHEN PUT INTO GEAR. MY SON DRIVES THIS CAR SOMETIMES AND I'M AFRAID FOR HIS SAFETY BECAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW IF IT'S GOING TO GO OR NOT WHEN YOU PULL OFF FROM A STOP.
