Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The vehicle has a hesitation during acceleration making it difficult to determine if i can safely merge into traffic. i took the vehicle to the dealer ,and they said that they had to clear the onboard computer's memory, and the problem should be cleared up. nothing was said on how or why this would fix the problem but it did not. the day after the clearing of the memory the vehicle did this again. i was told to bring it into the dealer again for another clearing of memory. what measures can i take to resolve this issue? i cannot be expected to bring this in every week. *ak
