| Description of the problem | I purchased my 2018 rav4 in november 2019. I had the car for about 3 months when i drove to work, the car acted sluggish, was pressing on the gas pedal but wasn't going faster. Then i had to go to bank, my car wouldn't move the rpms went up to 5 but car didnt move, finally car jumped so i pressed on gas an it tried to stall so i let off, then car acted like it had power again the car did this all the way to bank. It sat ideal while i was at the bank i noticed the car smelled gassy, then it did the same all the way back to work. When i got back to work i call the dealership in enid where i got it and he even said i may be my fuel pump. Later that day my car seemed fine. Now it feels like it will jump, sluggish, or stalls like it doesn't get gas when i have a full tank. I had great gas mileage now it takes 20 buck for 20 miles no joke. I called the toyota dealership in amarillo tx 4 days ago about changing my pump, so shows i had issues long before i got sent the recall message from a friend. I call toyota dealership in enid ok where i got the car and have plans to take it in on the 19th to be looked at. |
