| Description of the problem | Upon pressing the gas peddle for acceleration, my car hesitates and jerks when i need to increase my speed quickly, but as soon as i let off of the gas it immediately stops. It does this in any gear upon shifting if i am in need to quickly increase my speed. For instance when i need to get on to an interstate (which i drive everyday) i have to wait for the traffic to be clear before i can get on the interstate because it wont go quick enough with traffic to merge. If i am out for an easy drive it drives just fine. (just like the recall for the other renegade listed. This has not fixed itself. It is still constantly doing this. |
