Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS THE "HESITATION ON ACCELERATING" OR "THROTTLE LAG" PROBLEM WHICH IS DOCUMENTED ON MANY MODELS OF BOTH TOYOTA AND LEXUS VEHICLES. VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING FROM STOP LIGHT, SLOWING TO MAKE A TURN, OR IN TRAFFIC WHEN SLOWING AND THEN ACCELERATING. IT IS UNRESPONSIVE FOR 1-2 SECONDS THEN ACCELERATES FAST. THIS IS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN CROSSING A BUSY UNCONTROLLED INTERSECTION. OCCURS ROUTINELY WHEN DRIVING EVERYDAY. THIS HESITATION IS DANGEROUS,NOT NORMAL, AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS ADDRESSING BY THE MANUFACTURER.
