 Description of the problemWhen accelerating (either from a stop or a rolling stop) and then braking and then accelerating again, the engine will hesitate. Some call this "dead pedal" but i feel it's dangerous because it leaves vulnerable in traffic to a collision. It's happened to me numerous times and again today. I was at a 4 way stop and proceeded to accelerate when it was my turn, about 1/3 way into the intersection, a vehicle traffic ignored the stop sign and attempted to cross my line of travel. I had to break and then immediately accelerate and the truck hesitated which left me in the intersection. If the other vehicle had been traveling at a faster rate, it would have t-boned me. As it was, the other driver was able to maneuver his vehicle around me. To me, this isn't a delay in which the turbo spools up to help deliver power. It almost feels like the throttle is dead however the truck is still running. The hesitation can last about a second or so but in that time, i feel the truck is unsafe.
