| Almost every time i have started the vehicle and placed in drive from reversing out of my driveway, the vehicle jolts and seems that transmission is lagging or changing gears abruptly. the service engine light went on and i had made an appointment. when i took it in for inspection, the dealer said they could not recreate what i was talking describing. in addition, when i drive the power steering has had some issues. it has never drove in a straight line after two alignments. and it can be tough to turn the wheel. when i contacted the dealer about how i hear a clunking sound when driving over bumps, he test drove it and was confirmed that he agrees that there is clunking noise, but said he cant pinpoint it and it will have to get worse before he could tell. *tr | |||

| When i accelerate and every time the gear changes, the car would jolt as if i went over a speed bump. it's really uncomfortable when the car jolts while i accelerate, but the real problem is when i'm applying the brakes. the car would jolt and the speed would increase which nearly caused several accidents. i currently have about 13,000 miles and purchased this vehicle about 1.5 years ago. within that time, the ignition wouldn't start. i would ignite the car and the car would eventually die on me. people said it might be the spark plugs, transmission or even the battery. however, it didn't make sense because the car was purchased only a couple of months before that incident. i never even wasted my battery in any way either. what if the car decides to turn off while i'm on the freeway? i can't afford that to happen. *tr | |||
