WHEN STARTED (USUALLY THE SECOND TIME OF THE DAY AFTER BEING DRIVEN TO WORK AND THEN HAVING SAT ALL DAY) THE VEHICLE COUGHS AND RUNS ROUGH FOR A SECOND. THEN THE THROTTLE DOES NOT RESPOND TO INPUT FOR A VARIABLE PERIOD OF TIME. WHEN IT DOES RESPOND IT MAY RESPOND TO PREVIOUS INPUT CAUSING UNANTICIPATED ACCELERATION. I HAVE HAD TO USE BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE TO AVOID A CRASH. THROWS NO CODES. DEALER SAYS THEY CANNOT DIAGNOSE IT ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE REPRODUCED IT. IN ADDITION, AN INDEPENDENT SHOP SAYS THAT ON START/RESTART THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE IN THE STARTER/TRANSMISSION (THE ELECTRIC MOTOR IN THE TRANSMISSION IS USED AS A STARTER). DEALER DENIES HEARING THIS ALTHOUGH THE INDEPENDENT SAYS IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME. *TR
