Doesn't happen all the time. Took it into dealer and they can't find anything wrong. Starting to notice some other issues as well. Any info??

She said that she pushes it and nothing happens, then she would let off of it, when she applied the accelerator again, the vehicle would take off and stutter a little. We just got the vehicle back from the dealer which told us that this is normal operation for a hybrid as the vehicle is working as designed. Today I experienced this issue in where I pressed the accelerator and it would start to take off and hesitate then it would move. I noticed that the RPM's were at 2000 and we weren't even at 10 mph yet. I stopped again and when I pressed the accelerator again the rpm's jumped to 2000 immediately and we began to move. It didn't seem like a slipping clutch pack or anything that you would assume in a run of the mill automatic. I plan on calling the service manager tomorrow to talk to him, but would like some more information from others that may have dealt with an issue like this in the past. I also have a bone to pick with them anyway as the leather is cracking on the drivers and passengers seat. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

( they want me to buy another car to fix the problem. Lol, like they are so cheap. )
