I WAS TAKEN TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM WHERE I SUFFERED A SPINAL CORD INJURY AND A HUGE HEMATOMA ON MY LEFT LEG. *TR |
| 2013 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | THERE IS AN ACCELERATION LAG ON PARTIAL THROTTLE. THIS MAINLY OCCURS WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE OR WHEN ACCELERATING AFTER A TURN. WHEN NO ACCELERATION IS FELT, THE THROTTLE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED FURTHER AND, AFTER A DELAY, THE VEHICLE TAKES OFF LIKE A ROCKET. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE USING THE MANUAL SHIFT MODE, IT OPERATES WITHOUT AN ACCELERATION DELAY. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY LOOKED AT THE VEHICLE AND STATED IT DRIVES LIKE ALL OF THE OTHER 1.6 LITER ESCAPE VEHICLES ON THEIR LOT. THE DELAY IN ACCELERATION HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. A SIDE ISSUE IS WITH SYNC. THE CLOCK LOSES TIME, IT'S VERY SLOW TO RESPOND, IT ISN'T ALWAYS ABLE TO SYNC PHONES, UNDERSTAND VOICE COMMANDS, AND IT'S LOCKED UP...REQUIRING A MASTER RESET. THERE'S ALSO TOO MUCH ROAD NOISE TRANSMITTED TO THOSE ON THE OTHER END...CONSEQUENTLY, IT'S DIFFICULT FOR THEM TO HEAR THE CONVERSATION. *TR |
