| Description of the problem | This is an intermittent problem with acceleration we have had with our toyota highlander since we purchased the vehicle. When accelerating, the vehicle will periodically over-rev before the automatic transmission shifts into the appropriate gear. This results in a momentary lack of acceleration. Again this is an intermittent problem. When taken to the toyota dealer, they say they cannot recreate the problem and that there is nothing that they can see that is wrong with the vehicle. |
