When trying to accelerate, the vehicle will make a sort of stuttering, or have a delay in acceleration. Sometimes I notice the rpms increasing without reason, almost as if it skips shifting maybe or has a delayed shift? I have not tried in "sport" mode to see if manually shifting solves the problem. I also have not been able to identify any other common things, such as a certain fuel level, internal or external temperature, or rate of intended acceleration, though I would not rule out anything. I have noticed this happening both in town driving and highway driving, the delay in acceleration or stuttering. There is also a distinct shudder that happens occasionally. I am not sure if it is an issue with fuel (flooding maybe? or a delay in fuel injection?) or an issue with the power train (any issue in the transmission with shifting?) or maybe an issue in speed control (a missed connection between the accelerator pedal or throttle control cables and the next step in the chain?). I just know that sometimes I need to accelerate to get in a spot in a line of traffic and when the car doesn't 'go' when I need it to and it shudders or has a stutter or delay, it causes the car I was getting in front of to have to brake and if they don't, then my children in the back seat are put at risk. This has happened multiple times, not just the date indicated.
