NHTSA Complaint #10184416 — 2006 TOYOTA TACOMA

I WANTED TO WRITE YOU TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE A '06 TACOMA DOUBLE CAB AND I AM EXPERIENCING THE "LURCH" PROBLEM. I HAVE AROUND 2000 MILES ON MY TRUCK. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME BEING PICKY, BUT IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE IT DOESN'T WANT TO STOP AT TIMES. I HAVE NOTICED THAT WITH THE AC OR HEAT ON, IF I ARE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, AND DON'T HAVE MY FOOT FIRMLY, I MEAN FIRMLY PLANTED ON THE BRAKE, IT WANTS TO JUMP FORWARD. IT WILL DO THIS A COUPLE OF TIMES IF THE LIGHT IS RED FOR A WHILE. ALSO, IF I AM DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AT SLOW SPEEDS, IT TENDS TO "LURCH" FORWARDS AT TIMES, THUS CAUSING ME TO "PLAY" WITH THE BRAKE AND GAS. NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED OR NOT, BUT ALSO, IF I AM RIDING AT ABOUT 34-45 MPH AND THEN RELEASE THE GAS, THE ENGINE FEELS LIKE IT STALLS, BUT IT DOESN'T. THE RPMS DROP, THEN LEVEL OFF AGAIN AS IT COAST. *JB
