What owners wrote

I had been having on-going issues with engine surging, stalling and gear "skipping" since I first purchased the vehicle in december 2010, which I had reported to the dealership and about which I was in the midst of lemon law proceedings under ga lemon law. They are best described as similar in nature to those reported in the NHTSA investigation here: [link removed] at times, the engine would cut out at high speeds and I'd be stuck in "limp mode".

November 2012 CrashInjury
