Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The vehicle exhibits an unexpected delay in acceleration from a stop. This delay seems to be unpredictable and not due to any particular pedal movement. At times, when moving from a stop at an intersection, after moving into a lane of traffic, the delay can suddenly happen, and can be as much as 3 to 4 seconds. At this point, the vehicle is dead in the water so to speak. The engine is at idle and will not accelerate, and the vehicle will not move. Hence, the vehicle cannot be moved out of the way of oncoming traffic until the delay period is over. …”
