| Description of the problem | Leaving a parking lot getting ready to turn onto a divided 4 lane highway at a traffic light, as the light turned green the care did not go wile i pressed the accelerator down and i did it again and still nothing. Before i realized something was wrong the car drifted into the middle of the intersection with no power except the engine was running at idle speed and in gear but still no acceleration so i left the car drift to the other side of the road and the car started to go just before the light changed back. The start-stop was turned off and the engine never stopped the dealer said they could not find anything wrong and they could not do anything, but they would not guarantee the car was safe to drive. This happened 6 or 7 times in about 4 months but this was the most serious. |
