 Description of the problemI own a 2007 toyota rav4 sport. Since it was new we have had this problem. Toyota says it's normal and is the nature of the beast. Upon accelerating from a stop or accelerating to pass another auto, the throttle does not respond until it suddenly will accelerate hard. Leaving a stop it can be very frightening as we just don't know how hard it will accelerate when it does. Passing is equally frightening, if not more so. When we pull out to pass and step on the accelerator the car does not respond according to pressure on the gas pedal. We've come very close to head-on a couple of times. I kind of gave up on the issue after being turned away by the toyota dealership where we bought the car until hearing about other toyotas having accelerator problems. Our 2007 is a throttle by wire setup also. I have spoken to other rav4 owners who have experienced this problem. This can be pretty scary, especially for my wife. The incidents have been ongoing since the rig was new so i don't have a definitive date. I'll put in todays date for record. I would really appreciate a response to this problem. I know you're probably pretty tied up with toyota problems.
