WHILE ACCELERATING ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP FOR CENTRAL EXPRESSWAY, HWY 75, IT BECAME VERY SLUGGISH, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN HAD NO PICK UP. I NEARLY GOT REAR ENDED BY A FAST TRUCK! SINCE APRIL OF 2011 I NOTICED THAT IT HAD NO PICK UP. THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO GO AWAY, WHEN I LEARNED TO NOT ACCELERATE TOO MUCH TO ENTER THE HIGHWAY, JUST GRADUALLY VS IN A HURRY. THEN TODAY, SEPT 2011, WHILE DRIVING AT APPRX 45 MPH ON A BUSY ROAD, THE CAR SEEMED TO PULL BACK, AND THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON, AND BEEPS AT ME. IT WAS A SUNNY, DRY DAY. I PULL OVER IN A PARKING LOT, TURN OFF THE ENGINE, TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF MY TRUNK, AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN - AND, NO, THE OVERRIDE BUTTON WAS NOT ON. WEIRD. I START THE CAR, AND THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY, AND I DRIVE SAFELY BACK TO MY DESTINATION. WHY DOES THE PROBLEM ALWAYS EXIST WHEN I AM BY MYSELF, AND WATCH, WHEN I TAKE THE TIME OFF TO BRING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP, EVERYTHING WILL BE JUST FINE. I PRAY THAT I MAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSE SOME SORT OF DEFECT AND FIX IT BECAUSE IT STILL IS UNDER WARRANTY. I CANNOT BEAR THE WORSE CASE SCENARIO OF ANYTHING HAPPEN TO MY FAMILY. *TR
