Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The vehicle's collision prevention assistant plus option often displays during driving. This causes the car to lose acceleration and prevents you from accelerating regardless of how hard you press the gas pedal. This happens for no apparent reason and occurs while in the midst of driving, usually within a busy intersection and has also happened to me several times while driving on the highway. I am very afraid to drive this vehicle. The only way to correct this when it occurs is to pull off the road, shut the car down, and restart the engine after a few minutes. My car was serviced on 1/13/18 and when tested, no evidence of this was found. Since then, this malfunction happened on 1/14 and again today 1/15. This malfunction has the potential to be catastrophic. I've advised the dealer this needs to be serviced and fixed, otherwise we will be asking for a new vehicle for the remainder of the lease. I am very fearful to drive the car, especially with our two young children.
