hesitation problems

ok so for the last few weeks i have noticed a slight hesitation problem when letting of the gas around 2k rpms as the rpms keep going down the car feels like its going to dye on me, giving me a slight jolt. now the only things i have done to her is air box mod and i run 89 in it all the time i only have 2,500 miles on the car so far, its a auto 2.2 2008. dose anyone have any ideas what the hell is going on. Or is it very common with all the 2.2's and nothing to worrie about.

If its only got 2500 miles on it take it in for warranty and let them figure it out.

it's actually a pretty common problem. I know they've got a tsb and a reflash up for it, but I don't think there's an actual fix for it.

not positive. But personally I think it's a problem with the way the icm funtions. Our icms are more or less just dummies and the actual ignition settings are in the pcm. I think there's some idle control setting or something that conflicts with it.
