2016 Lancer ES Sport Auto
Hi i have purchased a new 2016 Lancer Es Sport Auto and iam having a flat spot issue for example when slowing down to under 15kph or just before i come to a complete stop it probably happens once ever 100 times when i start to accelerate the car just does not respond from 1 sec or even up to 3 secs very annoying especially turning at a set of lights or roundabouts.
I have taken my car and naturally was not faulting at the time it was tested and left the car at the dealers for 2 days with no issues registered on the computer.
I have done the following:
2 tanks of 95 octane petrol thinking it could be a petrol issue
Charged the battery with my battery charger just incase
I was just wondering if anyone has experienced an issue with a new car as i feel a bit unsafe especially with a 3sec gap when my car is not responding at roundabouts or turning at the lights.
Just to note it never has happened when my car is at a complete stop or at speeds above 20kph.
If anyone has advice or if it has happened to you could i please know the outcome.
I dont have an issue with the dealer as no fault codes are shown but very frustrating.
Thx Eddie

There was a recall where the dealer just re-flashed my cars computer and seems like it was fixed. Try that.
