File date	11/09/19
Component	ENGINE
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Previously entered complaint regarding cold throttle/turbo lag of 3-5 seconds which is dangerous for pulling into traffic and almost causing accidents but this is not limited to cold vehicles. The lag is shorter but evident when warm. I have had several incidents of hitting the lag while trying to turn in an intersection and there is a "flat spot" lag of 2 -3 seconds. Pressing the gas pedal in stop and go traffic can cause a lag then surge forward. I have almost hit the car in front of me several times and had difficulty switching lanes because i get the nose of the vehicle turned into another lane then it does not move causing near collusions then surges forward. This is extremely dangerous and i am beginning to be frightened of driving this vehicle for even the shortest of times.
