| Description of the problem | This vehicle has a major delay/hesitation when hitting the gas to accelerate. When i am attempting to accelerate or pass another vehicle, it takes 3-5 seconds before the engine reacts. It is dangerous when attempting to pass another vehicle in multiple lane traffic - the chances of being rear ended because of the hesitation are high. I have addressed this issue with a dealer and they continue to tell me that the vehicle doesn't have the issue that i am experiencing - it most certainly does! I am fed up with the lack of action to remedy this dangerous flaw. |
