Consumer Description

INTERMITTENTLY, UPON HEAVY ACCELERATION EXHAUST EMITS A HYDROGEN SULFIDE TYPE (ROTTEN EGG) ODOR. TOOK TO DELIVERY DEALER AND TECH COULD NOT DUPLICATE &. TOOK CAR TO ANOTHER DEALER. BOTH DEALERS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF PROBLEM. BOTH STATED THAT TOYOTA HAD REPLACED/REPAIRED EXHAUST OR CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. HOWEVER SUBSEQUENT TO 2003 MODELS TOYOTA WOULD NO LONGER OFFER REPAIR OR SOLUTION FOR MY 2007 MODEL. SERVICE TECH SUGGESTED USING HIGHER GRADE GASOLINE. I HAVE USED MID AND PREMIUM GRADE GAS WITH NO CHANGE IN RESULT. *TR
