| Description of the problem | Suv has a electrical problem causing the car to lose acceleration when pulling out into heavy traffic areas that require fast acceleration. The car also has random electronic messages that flash on the dash and the blind spot system goes off at various unnecessary times. The acceleration issue is very dangerous and i have had it to the dealer 4 times with no resolve!!! This could pose to be a serious issue if traffic is heavy and we are trying to merge into lanes or pull out into traffic lanes!!!! Happens when pulling away from a dead stop, car starts in motion and then just looses momentum and slowly rolls forward and after seconds pass it will start to reaccelerate again. This has happened 8 to 10 times over the first year of ownership. The last time being yesterday nov 20th 2017 |
