| Description of the problem | When driving there is a delayed throttle response which has led to a sudden acceleration when not expecting it. This happened on different occasions intermittently almost leading to an accident. I called my toyota dealer on august 22/07, sept 2007 and then called toyota on november 1, 2007. I was advised that this sudden delayed acceleration was normal for toyota as it was because the computer system sends a delayed message and i had to adjust my driving to accommodate it. It has not happened nearly as often as the first few months but does occasionally. It is sudden and frightening when it happens. |
