Consumer Description

TAKATA RECALL - I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING JERKING AND STUTTERING WITH MY VEHICLE SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN 2014. MY VEHICLE WILL STUTTER AND JERK UPON PRESSING THE GAS FROM A STANDSTILL IN TRAFFIC, ON A HIGHWAY AND IT IS EVEN WORSE GOING UPHILL. IT IS SLOW TO PICK UP SPEED NO MATTER HOW MUCH PRESSURE I PUT ON THE GAS PEDAL. NOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH SOMETHING REVVING UNDER THE HOOD AND ALSO WITH THE VEHICLE OVERHEATING. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL NEAR ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE VEHICLES JERKING AND STUTTERING WHEN MOVING FROM A STOPPED POSITION TO A FORWARD MORTION IN TRAFFIC. THESE INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPENED OVER THE COURSE OF FIVE YEARS OF ME PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW. THE STUTTERING AND JERKING HAPPENS DAILY.
