Consumer Description

FROM STOP (AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, MERGING, ETC), PRESS ON GAS PEDAL FOR ACCELERATION AND VEHICLE DOES NOT GO, HESITATES, THEN DOES ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, INTERMITTENTLY, AND HAS BEEN REPORTED TO TITUS WILL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. SINCE THEY HAVE NOT DUPLICATED IT, PROBLEM CONTINUES INTERMITTENTLY. NEVER KNOW WHEN THIS WILL OCCUR. IT IS VERY DISCONCERTING AND DANGEROUS. THIS VEHICLE HAS A LOT OF "COMPUTER" GLITCHES WITH GPS MAPPING, BLUETOOTH, AUTO LIGHTS, ETC. MAYBE RELATED?
