Potentially this was a very dangerous fault as there was intermittently a loss of power for what seemed like several seconds - though in fact it was probably less - under hard acceleration, ie when overtaking. The vehicle was reprogrammed twice, it is possible that this problem was linked with the faulty valve in the transmission that is reported as a separate complaint a few weeks later.

failure to shift up under hard acceleration
Dealer was helpful and provided a Enterprise rental car for the two days that it took to fix the problem.

The vehicle is jumping with a sudden kick when slowing down and braking. This jerking happens at slower speed, especially after I have initially driven at high speeds on the interstate.
Dealer charged me 2100 to replace control module inside the transmission. However, this did not fix the problem. The repair has a 1 year warranty. I am afraid they will say it has another problem when I return it.
