Consumer Description

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR ON THE CITY STREET (OR ANYWHERE), IT JERKS VIOLENTLY AS IT SHIFTS FROM FIRST GEAR INTO SECOND GEAR. ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT REQUIRES A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT WAS RELEASED BACK IN 2006. BUT OF COURSE, NO RECALL WAS ISSUED AND I WAS NEVER MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BY THE MANUFACTURER OR THE DEALERSHIP (EVEN THOUGHT I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR 11 YEARS).
