| Description of the problem | Acceleration problem. Some times turning left either from a complete stop or a slow turn when i press on the gas it takes off and then hesitate for few seconds and then takes of. It is so scary when you have traffic coming towards you. Now it is starting to do it more and now its doing it when i turn right. Have read several complaints with the same problem and can not believe nothing is being done about this. As usual someone has to get killed before this is taken serious. |
