The car will periodically stall for a second or two on occassions when starting out and then accelerate with a jolt. When in traffic this is unacceptable. I understand this may be common with cvt transmissions. If that is the case I question why they are allowed on the road. I wll not purchase another Subaru or any other car with a cvt.
