Your check engine light is turning on and off, and your car stutters and jerks when accelerating—though the problem doesn't always show up when mechanics check it. You've experienced the car bogging down on the highway at 50 mph, which felt unsafe. You're also aware of a recall for transmission problems and paint chipping on your model year. Diagnosing the stuttering and jerking will likely involve scanning for engine codes, checking fuel delivery components, and inspecting transmission performance.
