| Description of the problem | While in motion the vehicle either brakes or backfires. The jerking motion is so hard that i thought i was hit by another car. The car continues to drive but acceleration rate slows drastically causing near misses as well. The traction control and downhill shifting lights come on and stay on until you turn the engine off and back on. So far this has happened four times in both normal and economy drive modes while traveling on the interstate/highway at speeds between 50 and 70 mph. |
