I HAVE NOTICED SIGNIFICANT HESITATION WHEN I LAUNCH THE CAR FROM A STOP. WHEN THE CAR IS COMPLETELY STOPPED, AND I STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL, A LAG OF 1-3 SECONDS IS OBSERVED. WITHIN THIS TIME RANGE, THE CAR JUST IDLES AS-IS WITHOUT MOVING FORWARD. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENS WHEN I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE FROM 10-30. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD FOR MYSELF AND OTHER PEOPLE ON THE ROAD.*AK - May 1, 2001 · 1,000 milesPower train
