Description of the problem	After purchasing the vehicle new, immediately noticed hard and delayed shifting. Shifting between 1-4 gears was very hard. At times transmission seemed to be confused and would either pick the wrong gear or would take 2-3 seconds to finally engage into gear. On one particular occurrence while driving in a parking lot at about 15 mph i approached a stop sign and let off the accelerator. As soon as i let off the pedal the car dropped into gear so abruptly that it made the car lunge forward about a foot or two. On another occurrence i was driving on a residential street going around a traffic circle once again at approx 15mph i let off the accelerator for a moment as i went around the circle. Just as i was exiting the circle i depressed the accelerator to move quickly away since i saw another vehicle entering the circle. At this point the rpm's went above 3500 and the car did not shift and did not move. It appeared that the car was in neutral. It took about 1-2 seconds before the transmission was able to "find" a gear at which point it lunged forward abruptly. Both situation i did not have control of the vehicle because of the transmission. Both situations i was unable to control the vehicle in a safe manor. I have also at times needed to accelerate quickly into a merge lane and when "stomping" on the gas nothing would happen for 2-3 seconds.
