| Description of the problem | When test driving vehicle felt like transmission was not shifting properly but not being a mechanic thought it was just my imagination. They would not put a defective car on the lot for sale right? Wrong!!!! When i drove it after got it home it was obvious there was a big problem. Every time i stopped at a light then took foot off of brake to accelerate car would lurch, shake, shudder before i even got my foot on accelerator. Thought is was going to die. Would hesitate when trying to accelerate when put it in park to turn off engine same lurch shake shudder and sounds like engine died. Car has 61 miles on it. Was defective when shipped from factory took it back to dealer, said there are tons of complaints about this same issue. Toyota aware but has no fix in place. Dealer claims nothing they can do but wait on toyota. So now i have a brand new car that i have to continue making payments on while toyota continues business as usual and my car sits in the garage, afraid to drive it. |
