Owner Narrative

DURING LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE SURGES!. WITHOUT HOLDING THE BRAKE DOWN HARD THIS WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND IN SOME CASES OTHERS. THIS OCCURS SOMETIMES AT A COMPLETE STOP LIKE IN LINE AT A RESTAURANT OR EVEN IN A PARKING SPOT. THIS OBVIOUSLY ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN GEAR (DRIVE). THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES AND USUALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS WARMED UP. IT HAS ALSO DIED AFTER THE SURGE. *TR
