| Description of the problem | After coming to a stop and then attempting to accelerate the vehicle hesitates and will not respond even if you press the accelerator pedal further, then it will bang into gear and lurch forward. The safety issue is that you can not time pulling into traffic properly because you can not predict if you will have power available or not and then the bang can move you into oncoming traffic unexpectedly. |
