Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My volkswagen touareg has a "hesitation" when accelerating affectionately known in vw circles as "death lag". many times when attempting to accellerate the vehicle will just sit there for 3-10 seconds even if the accellerator pedal is depressed all the way. this has nearly caused numerous accidents with some avoided only by oncoming traffic swerving and skidding to a stop while my vehicle sits still in traffic.
