| Description of the problem | Purchased new , march '14. In for periodic service 2-22-16 reported occasional hesitation of 1 to 2 seconds after a stop or slow forward motion. The dealer put the car on diagnostic machines. "no problem." revisited the dealer explicitly for the same problem on 3-7-16. But now, in addition to the momentary lags, there had been a couple incidents of longer lags of 5 to 10 seconds. Again, the service report was written up with "no problem". Now i'm making a 3rd appointment because the hesitation is happening more frequently and i've had the long count lags (10 secs or longer) happen twice in the last 2 weeks. The problem has now moved from being an irritant to being life threatening. Incidents happen on streets and highways when entering and crossing traffic. Very unsafe, and nerve rattling. Please refer to nhtsa incident # 10836613 & 1082431 |
