What owners wrote
A rotten egg smell comes through the A/C vents when accelerating to merge or when going up a steel hill that requires accelerating. When driving on long trip this problem has caused the consumer to suffer from severe headaches. *nlm
At stop and starting to accelerate vehicle hesitates while trying to go into intersection. Stalls for a few seconds vsc light comes on and once system gains control it lets me actually accelerate and proceed. Dangerous due to oncoming traffic and the hesitation time of not knowing how long until I regain control.
