What owners wrote
The SUV seems to miss or hesitate when slowing to make a turn. It feels like it sputters or sticks at times when accelerating or slowing down. It usually rides smooth when driving at a constant speed, but sort of jerks when acceleration changes. I wanted to know if there were any recalls because I want to be sure the problem won't create a driving hazard.
During initial acceleration from a standstill, or when accelerating again after either constant speed operation or coasting the transmission will delay in the vehicle accelerating. While at 60-65 MPH the vehicle will fluctuate in RPM and try to accelerate on its own. The service transmission light came on and the check engine light has been going off and on since the vehicle was purchased in october 2017. When bringing it in for service dealer says there is nothing wrong.
