Consumer Description

THE REACTION OF THE VEHICLE TO THE GAS PEDAL IS EXTREMELY TOUCHY AT LOW SPEEDS. IT IS SO TOUCHY, THAT IF YOU HIT A POT HOLE OR BUMP IN THE ROAD, IT IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP YOUR LEG STILL ENOUGH TO NOT FLUCTUATE THE GAS PEDAL AND SEND THE CAR LUNGING FORWARD.. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN WHEN DRIVING IN PARKING LOTS OR AREAS WHERE THERE ARE PEDESTRIANS, AS THE VEHICLE WILL LUNGE FORWARD AT THE SMALLEST MOVEMENT OF THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE THE DAY OF PURCHASE. STILL AN ISSUE AT 2,000 MILES.
