| Description of the problem | Since i bought the car new, when at intersections or stop signs, car hesitates and stumbles on acceleration when requiring instant acceleration to avoid collision with on coming traffic.

Vehicle does this intermittently but scares the hell out of me not knowing if the car is going to accelerate or not and get hit by on coming traffic |
