Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 2013 SRX USED IN JANUARY OF 2017 AND ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TODAY BEING THE LATEST, AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT 4-WAY INTERSECTIONS, WHEN I TRY TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND MOVE INTO THE INTERSECTION THE CAR COASTS WITHOUT POWER AND LEAVES ME STRANDED FOR A FEW SECONDS. WITH THE GAS PEDAL PRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR THE VEHICLE ALL OF A SUDDEN BOLTS FORWARD CAUSING THE VEHICLE "PEEL OUT". BEING STRANDED IN THE INTERSECTION IS SCARY AND I AM AFRAID I WILL BE HIT. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, BUT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ON A CONSISTENT BASIS FOR THE DEALERSHIP TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM. I SEE ON THE INTERNET SEVERAL OTHER CONCERNS THAT SOUND VERY SIMILAR TO THIS.
