| Description of the problem | I have had to take in my vehicle to our dealership twice within 2 months on the same issue. The car has been sputtering at idle and also when accelerating. When the car is traveling in between 25-30mph the transmission gets a hard kick, it almost feels as if you are getting hit from behind. They have replaced the throttle body, ignition coil, spark plug wires, and spark plugs. The vehicle is under 32,000 miles and is mostly driven in town, i feel it is unsafe to drive out of town because it shakes violently when traveling at 65mph or higher. |
