Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	While stopped at a red light on an incline, vehicle did not move when gas pedal was pressed. It felt like the car had stalled out but the rpm's were still between 1 and 2. When i pressed harder on the gas the car lurched forward. This has happened several times and is now happening more often, not always on an incline or when temperature or engine is cold. Taking to dealer for repair but told if they can't duplicate they can't do anything about it. I have only owned this car 4 months and want to get rid of it because i'm afraid to drive it now. Not sure if its a problem with the transmission or fuel system but something is definitely not right. Hope it happens for the dealer so it can be fixed.
