Hesitation and Jerk

[buzzcii]

5k on my 2016. While slowing down for a red light at about 15-20 mph, light turns green, press on gas pedal and there is 1-2 second hesitation, then car jerks forward when the engine finally responds.

Is this normal?

Thanks in advance

i had a similar problem on my 01 volvo, it was a POS though. Might be normal not sure, but i did see it on my 2015 mustang and it reminded me of the volvo, but i got a tune/headers and haven't noticed it anymore, but not everyone wants to go that route. it happened around 15-20 mph for me as well.

Thank you Jon.

I'll be doing a tune soon and some pipes too in the future. Hopefully, that'll solve it.

Very common. The only way I got rid of it was with an e85 tune. My 93 and flexfuel tunes did the same thing.

That's the "keep high school kids from hitting walls" safety feature.
