Consumer Description

THE CAR SPUTTERS AND LURCHES BETWEEN 30-40 MPH OR SO. IT CAN'T MAINTAIN SPEED. YOU HAVE TO SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY FOR IT TO STOP. IT'S RIDICULOUS AND ANNOYING THAT A 45-50,000 DOLLAR CAR WOULD DO THIS. THE CAR HAS BEEN DOING IT SINCE THE DAY WE BOUGHT IT. ALSO NEEDED TO MENTION THE AUDIBLE TICKING THE ENGINE MAKES WHEN IDLING. WHY HASN'T SOMETHING BEEN DONE ABOUT THIS CONSIDERING MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED OF THIS ISSUE????
