Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS PROBLEMS ACCELERATING. IT WILL HESITATE TO ACCELERATE WHEN NORMALLY PRESSING THE GAS PEDDLE. I HAVE TO FLOOR IT HEADING INTO FREEWAY ENTRANCES, UP HILLS OR PICKING UP SPEED OVER 40MPH. ONCE IT RESPONDS AFTER A COUPLE OF SECONDS IT OVER ACCELERATES JERKS AND BUCKLES THEN STRUGGLES TO KEEPS A STEADY SPEED. IT'S A DAILY SAFETY HAZARD MERGING INTO FREEWAYS COUSING OTHER DRIVERS TO SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN OR HAVE TO CHANGE LANES BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.
