| Description of the problem | Dangerous! Intermittent delay of 4 to 6 seconds typically pulling out into traffic from a complete stop. Other cars slamming on brakes to prevent wreck, swerving to miss my stalled car. My wife and grand-kids have been on passenger side when this occurs where they are most vulnerable since most incidences occur when turning left. This car is likely to kill or mangle someone if this is not resolved. The ol 'we can't create it' is getting really stale from the dealer when lives are at risk. I'm assuming it's going to take a few deaths before a recall occurs. I would love to raise the money to put a full page in usa today to get this dangerous condition some attention if nobody else is going to. |
