| Description of the problem | The issues that i have with the power train is that when the car slows down & has to accelerate quickly or when you come to a complete stop & take off the car hesitates to go. It somewhat stalls & is very dangerous especially in city traffic trying to cross a busy street & then you stall with oncoming traffic coming towards you!! You can sometimes press the gas pedal to the floor & it still won't take off like it should & then when it catches the car jerks & then accelerates. Crazy huh? I don't like it. I have taken my car back to the dealership 3 times & every time they say it's the way the new transmission is made in the 2018 models & it's nothing they can do. But it happens everyday at some point of my driving trip. This is a very dangerous issue & toyota needs to fix the problem & take this serious before someone really gets hurt. With the visibility or wipers, when it rains really hard the visibility is terrible... Wipers on high & defrost on it's still just terrible!! Toyota we can do better than this now!! |
