On more than one occasion I was going between 5-10 miles an hour and the car sputtered and felt like it was going to shut off. I told the dealership when I took the car in for regular service and the told me the computer did not find anything wrong and they could not replicate the problem when driving it. Also when accelerating the car will make a clunking sound. Again the dealership denied a problem. These issues have happened multiple times
Will driving the car decelerated and would not go pass 20mph. Break, engine, ect. Lights turned on. The car has only 1345 miles. So far it has happened twice. Second time going to the dealership.
Engine abnormal shift downward while driving regularly. I feel the shift is not smooth even feels like a defect in the engine shift system 17,000 miles mostly happens regularly driving on city streets and a bit less happens on the parkway but does happen. The shifts are hard to ignore I remember the very time I felt it on 10,000 miles and it would able occasionally and now it's happening even more frequently than I can possibly say this is an ongoing defect and growing to be a problem even more so.
