It happens after a long period of driving and when I'm coming up to a stop sign and going to accelerate again after doing research online and taking it to my dealership they will not do anything because they cannot figure out the problem I found a recall on the NHTSA website for my vehicle with my VIN number included in the range of in numbers experiencing this exact…
I have noticed an issue with my cars acceleration from a 0 mile per hour starting point to a 30 MPH. It is very sudden and random. It has occurred several times from a stop at a traffic light or a stop sign. There is a second to as long as 4 second hesitation in acceleration. Accelerator pedal is pressed and the car takes off for a brief second or 2 before the few second hesitation occurs. It can be dangerous if this occurs when pulling out on a busy highway with traffic coming.
