Description of the problem	I received your response to my letter of complaint dated feb 24, 2011. It did not address my concern with the delayed response between the depressed accelerator and a delayed engine response. Rather i was informed by a form letter that ny complaint would be satisfied with a "floor mat adjustment". I was additionally notified that a 2nd letter from toyota would arrive by early may 2011 when "parts are ready and preparations are complete. I have not received this notification as of this date. I repeat; my accelerator does not stick". Sometimes there is a one or two second delay when the accelerator is depressed and the engine responds causing a fast "lurch forward" rather than a gradual increase form the current speed or sometimes from a complete stop it will happen. The delayed engine response to a depressed accelerator is a serious problem with potentially dangerous consequences. Sincerely,
