Description of the problem | When stopped at idle engine speed, my 2007 toyota tacoma dbl cab prerunner v6 will surge / lunge suddenly. Although i have the brakes firmly applied, the truck will still move a little bit. I've damaged personal property because of it. No injuries (yet), but it'll sure get your attention when it happens. Also, the truck will sometimes accelerate a bit when you have taken your foot off of the gas. Nothing drastic, but it shouldn't do this. This is a major concern with me; enough that i won't let anyone else drive my vehicle for fear it may startle them and they may lose contrrol of it. This happens very frequently. |
