What owners wrote
I am not sure what the component is but I am driving and as I accelerate the gas my car will lose power to increase speed. If I am at the stop sign or stop light and I proceed to go the car will stall and not get going once I place my foot on the gas. I have reached out to the dealer by phone and when I have obtained service I am being advised that it's nothing. But I have experienced it on multiple occasions and even had an accident and nothing is being done to resolve the issue.
This is the third time that when I was trying to park my car after completely stopped the car (braked while the car is in the drive) then move my stick shift to reverse and the stick shift is fully in reverse but car moves forward.
