| Description of the problem | There is a lag in the accelerator when moving from very slow or from a stop. When moving into cross traffic it is hazardous as you lose significant speed or acceleration creating an unreasonable risk that the cross traffic will collide with your vehicle. This is not a one time occurrence as it happens on a continuous basis. The dealer takes no responsibility and is ducking the issue. I am afraid it is just a matter of time before they may be serious incidents as other owners have said the same thing to me. |
