Hesitation and jerking when holding a steady throttle causing popping to come from the exhaust. May cause me to crash due to inconsistent power and control. I reported it to the dealer. They didn't inspect it and only called the tech line. They reported back to me that its a normal operation.

Reading this record

NHTSA has issued a do-not-drive warning for a recall on this vehicle.

Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.

Recall repairs are free for as long as the recall stands. Check whether a specific car still has open work at NHTSA's VIN lookup.
