This car hesitates. I push the accelerator all the way down and nothing happens. I just roll. When I make a left turn - I have cars behind me honking at me to get moving, but nothing works. Then, suddenly the car shoots forward. This doesn't happen all the time and not only on left turns, but they are the worst. Before making a left turn, everyone makes sure there is no car approaching. But, every left turn is a real issue for me, because I never know if the car is going to move. I have taken my car to the dealer twice, only to be told it was fine when they tested it and bring it back when it doesn't work right. I was even told that the brake and gas pedals are close together and maybe I was pushing both of them at the same time. So, it was a woman's crazy problem she was creating herself. I don't know what else to do.

Was driving on South on hwy 86 in California..I came up on the back of a truck and slowed down... I went to pass truck and felt like the clutch was slipping. Then the clutch pedal went all the way to the floor. I pulled over and I pulled the pedal out and let go and it shot back to the floor it felt like there was a large spring pulling on the pedal. I looked under the hood and saw oil splatters that appeared to be coming from the slave cylinder. The dealership is telling us that it is abuse however this vehicle has been driven on open highways without it being necessary to shift for 95% of its short 4400 miles life !

Delayed acceleration and delayed deceleration. Throttle always reacts half-second behind pedal movements, causing difficulty pulling out from a stop, and shifting gears, in car with manual transmission. This causes car to stall regularly when pulling out in first gear, risking traffic accident!this abuses the clutch and well make it where incorrectly and will require clutch replacement longer sooner then expected lifetime.
