 Description of the problemTemporary loss of power. On a trip from san francisco to cypress, ca on the i-5 freeway cruising at 70 mph a sudden temporary loss of power occurred at least 30 times (this with odometer in 6,000 mile range). I had reported this problem to my toyota dealer at approximately 3000 miles. They said their technician could not find any problem. Around 1/3/2020 i took it to dealer and said i would leave it there until they repaired it. I purchased an 8 year extended warranty in oct., 2014. After. 4 days dealer called for me to pick it up. Was told there was no problem, their computer read my car computer and found that while right foot was on gas and left foot either near or on the brake pedal when it occurred. Since my left foot was resting on mat without any movement why didn't the loss of power happen constantly! They said it was a safety feature. I say it is a danger.. I have had it happen making right or left turns & starting when signal turns green. On line i have seen same complaints. One mechanic suggested it could be a mass air flow circuit malfunction. Another said it could be air fuel ratio sensor intermittently failing which could test ok. Notice we only have around 6,000 miles on car we bought in oct. 2014 because problem cannot be predicted.
