| Description of the problem | Engine/transmission is very jerky and on again off again with acceleration and deceleration. This has almost caused me to have several accidents, and i am considering getting rid of the car. It seems that toyota has known about this problem with highlander for some period of time. And i feel that they should honor the hard working citizens that buy their vehicles and provide a recall to repair the afore mentioned problems. |
