| Description of the problem | Vehicle continues to hesitate and misfire upon startup. Obd code p303 for cylinder #3 misfire. After a few minutes, the problem goes away. Doesn't happen every time, and in no particular weather conditions or temperatures. May be dangerous if pulling out of a parking area or some other location onto a street, as vehicle will buck and refuse to accelerate for a few moments. My research has found that this appears to be a common problem, and recalls were issued in older models but not this particular year so far. |
