I've had that happen to me a few times. I'm not entirely sure what the cause of it is. But since it rarely (maybe 2 or 3 times since I've owned the car) ever happens to me...at least for me I assume I just got some bad gas.

Have a read through there. It may be of some help. Others have the same problem. Some seem to be worse then others.

Are fuel cleaners good or bad for a new car. Should I try that.

Whenever mine has done it...this is what it does. You step on the gas....and it sounds like its trying to suck air in but its not getting any air, so it starts to bog real bad. It almost stalls out, then all of a sudden it gets air again and it basically lunges forward, starts pulling really hard. If I had to guess more specifically then gas problem...maybe some type of issue with the throttle body?
