| Description of the problem | I slowed down the car at the end of an interstate exit ramp to check for traffic and thinking i had enough time to cross the intersection i gave it gas and got very little acceleration. When i pushed the gas to the floor i still got no more acceleration. I wrote the toyota service department to make an appointment to bring it in and received the response that they were aware of the problem, but at this time there was no solution so do not bring the car in. If there had been more traffic in that situation it would have caused a wreck. Acceleration is also very erratic when using cruise control, going up a slight hill will cause the motor to race. Also, it requires quite a lot of force to stop the car. |
