Description of the problem | When stopped on an uphill in drive, car rolls backward when i step off the brake before i can step on the gas. On a steep hill, requires coordinating keeping one foot on brake while stepping on gas to move forward. Tested on an empty hill, car rolled back all the way down until i braked. Test drove with dealer's technician, he said this was normal operation "feature" of this transmission. If so, is this what i tell the car behind me on the hill when i roll into it.. Or the child who scoots behind me to catch the school bus? Definitely a safety issue!! |
