Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: No failure, accidents or injuries. the problem is a lag in acceleration at throttle tip in. the lag can cause dangerous situations when pulling in front of traffic and the car fails to accelerate in a timely manner. it has caused us to become hesitant when driving the vehicle and we lack confidence when pulling into an intersection from a stop. it is considered normal operation by the manufacturer. we have taken it to two different dealers who both agreed there was a lag and both told us there is no resolution to the problem. we feel the lag is bad enough to constitute a safety issue. *nm
