Consumer Description

Very often the transmission does not kick in when the accelerator is pushed and gas is applied. I.e when crossing an intersection, when passing, when moving forward from a complete stop, when changing lanes, and when on busy freeways. This has been reported to Dealer many times beginning in 2017. This has occurred when I have had passengers in vehicle as well as when other drivers have been behind the wheel. I again reported incidents in September of 2023 but could not get an appt with dealer scheduled until November 6, 2023. Since most recent report to dealer, I have experienced at least 4 more incidents that could very well have been life threatening.
