When accelerating the car does not respond at first, and then when it does finally accelerate it switches gears so hard the whole car lunges forward, I took the car into the dealership three times. Each time they said they needed to do software upgrade. This never fixed the problem. The car still continues to do this. The first time I took the car to the dealership the car was at 55,000 miles, my car is currently at 65,000 miles. It is a real safety concern because if you press the pedal to turn, there is such a delay that it may not be safe to turn anymore but the car then accelerates.
