I got my 2012 honda accord it had 8 miles on it. I have had several incidents while driving that the acceleration delays about five seconds it feels just like the car is not getting gas and then it kicks in. This usually occurs when I have slowed down or am taking off from a light turning. I have had that delay happen when ever I drive.
