Consumer Description

VEHICLE HESITATES ON ACCELERATION. TAKES 1-2 SECONDS FOR DRIVETRAIN TO RESPOND TO ACCELERATION AND THEN VEHICLE TAKES OFF MUCH QUICKER THAN ANTICIPATED. HAPPENS FROM A STOP OR WHILE MOVING, IF VEH IS HOT OR COLD AND IF IT IS DRY OR WET OUT. I FEEL THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS VEH LURCHES FORWARD WHEN PROCEEDING FROM A STOP AND COULD CAUSE A COLLISION WITH THE VEH IN FRONT OR WITH A PEDESTRIAN.
