| Description of the problem | Have experienced acceleration hesitation problem on 2004 toyota highlander. Have taken the car to toyota who insist that the car if fine and performing to their specs. Also contacted their regional office and was told to periodically check with the dealership to see if a technical service bulletin may have been issues, but as of now nothing was being worked on. Toyota did issues a tsb on a different 2004 model. As my wife drives this car usually with children i am very concerned about this hesitation. *jb |
