ASK THE AUTO DOCTOR: Find source of jerk with a scan tool
August 29, 2008
Dear Doctor: I own a 2005 Saturn Ion with 28,500 miles. Under light acceleration I notice a slight jerk. I went back to the dealer and they could not find the jerk sensation. I have a 5-year/50,000-mile warranty. Do you have any suggestions? Bob
