Description of the problem | There is an extreme delay when pressing the accelerator and actual acceleration of the vehicle. There seems to be no correlation between how far the accelerator is pressed and vehicle acceleration. When merging into traffic and especially when pulling out into traffic, this delay is a severe safety problem. There are times that a 2-3 second delay is experienced between pressing the accelerator and the vehicle actually moving. |
