| Description of the problem | I have a 2007 toyota tundra with 4. 7l that doesn't like to start all the time. While this isn't a safety issue i believe you are looking into the possibility of an electrical/electronics problem associated with the sudden acceleration. As a former mechanic/current electrician/as in electrical engineering i believe my problem is definitely electrical in nature. I'm not sure if it is related but i figured i would send a message and give you a heads up. Also this is not an isolated case as another gentleman in town here has the same year make and model with the same problem. We have both been to the dealer 3 times and they still won't do anything about the problem. Today i am sending my paperwork to a law firm who specializes in the pa lemon law. Let me know if i can be of any assistance. They just did the recall on my truck last week and i'm going on a long trip tomorrow so wish me luck! Lol thanks! |
