Reported on Aug 02, 2012
| DURING COASTING/DECELERATION FROM 35 DOWN TO 20 MPH, THE CAR WILL PROVIDE A SUDDEN JERK AT 25 MPH WHILE THE A/C IS ON MAX. THIS DEVOLVED INTO TIRE SKIDDING AFTER A COUPLE WEEKS WHILE THE DEALERSHIP WAS TEST DRIVING IT FOR REPLICATION DURING THE WEEK OF 8/20/12. THE REPLACEMENT CAR THAT I RECEIVED ON 8/28/12 STARTED SHOWING THE SAME SYMPTOMS AT 800 MILES ON 9/7/12. CURRENT DIAGNOSIS OF THE MANUFACTURER OF THE ORIGINAL CAR INDICATED THE CAR REQUIRED A NEW CVT. AT THE TIME, THE ETA FOR REPLACING THE CVT (ON THE ORIGINAL CAR) WAS AT LEAST 3 WEEKS. *TR | |
