Consumer Description

DEALER HAS RUN CHECK TWICE AND CANNOT FIND SOURCE OF HESITATION - DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERYDAY AND IS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH ANY CERTAIN WEATHER CONDITIONS, LENGTH OF WARM-UP TIME, ETC. USUALLY OCCURS WITHIN FIRST 200 FEET AFTER PUTTING VEHICLE INTO DRIVE - WITH FOOT ON GAS PEDAL, CAR ACTS AS IF IT'S GOING TO STALL AND THEN KICKS BACK INTO GEAR - HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN OCT. 1999. THE CAR ALSO ROLLS BACKWARDS ON INCLINES UNLESS FOOT IS ON BRAKE OR GAS PEDAL - ROLLS BACK EVEN DURING THE TIME IT TAKES TO MOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE TO THE GAS (NEED TO DRIVE WITH TWO FEET ON HILLS THAT YOU STOP ON) - HAVE NOT NOTIFIED DEALER OF THIS PROBLEM YET - DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS A PROBLEM UNTIL I SAW THE OTHER COMPLAINTS - WILL NOTIFY DEALER ON NEXT VISIT.*AK
