    Brand new vehicle (1600 miles) hesitates when i go from a complete stop and start to accelerate at low speeds. Mainly notice it when taking a corner. It seems as if it has trouble selecting the gear and once it does, it lurches forward. Dangerous when pulling out into traffic as the hesitation puts you in the middle of the road just a little too long for comfort. Also, my traction control light will come on around…

    When depressing the accelerator at speeds less than about 10mph, the vehicle has a very significant hesitation - about 2 seconds when the vehicle is completely non-responsive. Happens every time at low speed turns, and is dangerous with vehicles behind.

Others have indicated a similar problem as well in the santa fe online…
