Hesitation and delays in acceleration when driving from 0 - 30 MPH. Originally it started with the rpms dropping way down before catching. Brought the car in for service and they replaced a brake sensor. The problem became much worse. When reaching 30 MPH the transmission felt like it went into neutral and had a problem catching. Rpms jumped way up to 4 and revved 3 times before catching. Leaving me unable to have control over the car. Very scary.
