    In september 2012 i experienced a flattening out of the acceleration. Turning at a very low speed the car did not accelerate (this still occurs off and on). It is quite dangerous because there is no warning to the car behind me that i am no longer moving forward. It is like a stalling out which last around 5 seconds or so. Very unnerving but only seems to happen when i am going slow and turning the wheel. *tr

    On acceleration the gas cuts out, lasting around 3 to 10 seconds. I cannot duplicate this condition, it just happens sporadically. It is very dangerous because the car behind me has no indication that i am in limbo and could easily rear-end me. This usually occurs when i am turning at a low speed, but has happened when driving straight. *tr

    I enter into a parking lot behind a cluster of homes, a car was behind me and the driver indicated that i was going at less than 3-5 miles per hour. I park the car and all of the sudden the car accelerated, went over the parking bump and over a wood safety wall, over some bushes and landed 2 feet down, damaging the homes and a couple of heating units. I pressed the brake but the car kept on accelerating. This car…
