| Description of the problem | Vehicle does not accelerate properly. If you slow down for a light which then turns green, when you go to accelerate the vehicle hesitates for several seconds. Also does it when pulling out from a complete stop. We have had several near rear end collisions because of this. Vehicle was purchased in missouri and taken to the shop several times for this issue and each time the either said they found no issue or they flashed the computer. We are living in utah now and the issue continues to the point my wife is afraid to even drive it. This is a daily issue when i go to work i have to enter a two lane highway with a speed limit of 65 mph and the vehicle will not accelerate. |
