I was leaving a driveway and was unable to accelerate, putting me at risk of being hit from behind. This…

I turned it off and on twice and then it seemed to operate normally. I took it into the dealership the next day and i was first told there was no issue, then it happened again, this time it would also do a violent jerk as if i'd been rear-ended. The service…
