Vehicle will not go into drive after it sits for a while. Vehicle will start up, but once it goes in drive engine will rev, but no movement. Problem seems to be intermittent. Dealer couldn't find anything wrong with vehicle. Consumer is considering getting a second opinion. When hitting bumps and applying the brakes, there is a noise. Accelerator pedal sticks, dealer replaced the throtle body. Plastic bezel at tailgate handle came off, delaer reinstalled.
