Tl* the contact owns a 2011 dodge avenger. The contact stated that while parked, the horn actuated independently and the instrument cluster flickered on and off. The vehicle was driven to the residence and there was an abnormal smoke odor in the cabin in the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to daytona dodge chrysler jeep ram & fiat located at 1450 n tomoka farms rd suite a, daytona beach, fl 32124, 1450 n tomoka farms rd suite a, daytona beach, fl 32124, to be diagnosed.
The car has a tremendous delay when you press the gas pedal from any speed. This has almost caused me a few accidents already when crossing intersections that have no traffic signals. The vehicle finally reacts after a second or two of having pressed the gas pedal but the pedal is pressed so far by me already that it ends up accelerating incredibly abruptly that is also dangerous.
