When cold, after putting in drive, vehicle will feel like it stalls suddenly then "catches up" and very quickly accelerates. This only happens when the engine is cold and has been sitting for 6-8 hours or more. Concerned about pulling in to traffic especially in the mornings as I live on a busy road.

Sudden Acceleration Issue. Leaving a parking lot at low acceleration my 2022 VW Tiguan SEL R-line suddenly accelerated. I was able to stomp on the brake pedal to remedy the situation. This happened twice in a 12 hour period. I have not yet taken it to the dealer as this is a rare incident at this time. All seemed like normal operation at the time the issue happened.
