Acceleration Delay when accelerating from stop

I was almost T-boned by another vehicle while visiting my daughter in San Jose, CA a couple of months ago due to the terrible lag time when trying to accelerate from a full stop. The vehicle that almost hit me was probably going to fast but never the less it would not have been a problem with any other vehicle I have owned to accelerate out of the path of this vehicle. In order to avoid a collision the driver evaded my vehicle but crashed into a tree and was injured and did massive damage to his vehicle. My question is has anyone initiated a lawsuit against FCA for allowing this dangerous problem to go unfixed? If GDE can provide a solution by re-flashing the ECU why can't FCA? I cannot but think there are Eco diesel owners out there who have been in accidents due to this dangerous performance issue.
