When coming out of a stop (red light, stop sign, etc.,) the car will not accelerate. I have to pull off to side and shut the car off, wait a minute, and start it again. Only then will it drive. It does not do this all the time. However, when it does, it does it multiple times in a short time frame. It has done this occasionally since I got the car in 2017. My sister also owns a 2014 chevrolet spark and hers does this as well.

For the second time in a couple months, while turning left across traffic the vehicle lost the ability to accelerate. I was able to get off the road and cut the car off and restarted it and the problem went away. I have researched the subject online and it appears a lot of people have a similar issue with this vehicle and no one seems to know a solution. After the first time it happened we took the vehicle to the dealer and they could not find an issue.
