Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had this car in the shop 3 times for this same problem and because no codes are showing, the shop cannot detect what the problem is. when sitting in traffic and the engine speed in creases to 3,000 rpm's, i'm having to apply the brakes as hard as i can to stop the car from lurching forward. believe me, if i were to take my foot off the brake, i would literally be driven into the rear of the car in front of me. it seems to me this is a recurring problem with this vehicle from reading the other customer complaints. this problem is pretty scarey and needs to be addressed. someone needs to advise me what i need to do to get this problem taken care of before someone gets hurt.
