    The idle speed for the vehicle is too low. With the engine warmed up, you can step on the brake (as is typical at a red light) and the car will vibrate a lot and the driver will feel an uncomfortable vibration. At times, it seems like the engine might shut off. When the brake pedal is released and the engine rpm increase a little bit, the vibration stops. A quick search on the internet will reveal that this is a…

The rpm's drop, sometimes as low as 550 which causes a vibration as if the vehicle is about to stall. The lower the rpm's, the worse the vibration. On at least two occasions i have had to put the car in neutral at a stop light because the rpms dropped so…

    Shortly after purchasing this vehicle we noticed that it has an extreme vibration problem. For us, the problem is most pronounced when the car is warmed up, and it is idling. Under particular electrical load conditions the car will shake violently. The vibration is the worst when the car is idling in the 500-600 rpm range. Several people have ridden in the car and asked us if something is wrong, and why is the car…

I took his word for it and have unfortunately become accustom to it but in the last month it has gotten much worse. Now it is shaking violently enough to where if you were driving…
