Consumer Description

THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT DELAY IN THROTTLE RESPONSE ON THE 1500 ECO-DIESEL. THERE ARE NUMEROUS SITUATIONS AND SCENARIOS WHERE YOU PUSH THE THROTTLE DOWN AND THE CAR DELAYS FOR A FEW SECONDS BEFORE THE ENGINE INCREASES POWER. I COULD BE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC SOMETIMES AND SOMETIMES I ACCELERATE NORMAL AND SOMETIMES WHEN I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR DELAYS AND I AM STUCK WITHOUT ANY ACCELERATION FOR A FEW SECONDS. YOU COULD ATTEMPT TO SPEED UP TO PASS ON THE HIGHWAY SOMETIMES AND AGAIN SOMETIMES IT DOES ACCELERATE AND SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT ACCELERATE AT ALL.
