I have already reported to the dealership of problems with decreasing speed, acceleration and cruise control of the daewoo nubira. i have a standard shift vehicle with five gears. when i get the car up to 60 mph or more and let up on the gas, the car jerks forward and back!! i had the dealership take a look at this problem. they compared my car versus a newer model (with an automatic transmission) and they found the same problems that i faced. they used the cruise control and found that the car has a jerking action while trying to maintain its cruising speed. they informed me that they filled out a "tech report" and that in future models they will work on the problem. i really do like my car, but i cannot stand the jerking action. i don't know if others have reported this problem or if it is just a couple of nubiras that experience these problems. either way, i consider this a defect in the cruise control and acceleration/decrease of speed. thank you for taking this request and, if possible, could you inform me if there has been any other problems such as this reported. thank you. - brian p. blythin
