Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AWAY GOING UP A SLIGHT HILL ON THE HWY EXCELLING AND PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL WHEN THE POWER SUDDENLY DROPPED AND WENT DOWN TO 20 MPH WHILE I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL EVEN MORE THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS REVVING BUT THE SPEED STAYED AT 20 MPH OR LESS.- THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VSC & TRAC LIGHTS ALL CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND DECIDED TO TURN AROUND AND NOT CONTINUE UP THE HILL. WHILE DRIVING ON THE STRAIGHT AWAY (STILL ON THE HWY) THE VEHICLE'S SPEED IMPROVED A LITTLE BUT ONLY IN SPURTS- GOING UPWARDS TO 40 MPH THEN FALLING AGAIN TO 20 MPH AT LEAST 3 TIMES IN THE 20 MINUTE DRIVE HOME. THE VEHICLE SOUNDED AND FELT LIKE IT WAS STRAINING FOR POWER. ALL OF THE FLUIDS, OILS ETC.. WAS FILLED AND IN GOOD STANDINGS- THIS VEHICLE IS ONLY 6 MONTHS OLD AND HAS 4434 MILES ON IT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE TOYOTA DEALER THE VERY NEXT DAY AND THEY FOUND THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. THE CODES P2445 AND P2441 WAS FOUND FAULTY AND WAS REPLACED- IN THE REPORT IT WAS STATED THAT THE CAR IS DOWN, CONSIDERED UNSAFE TO DRIVE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE MAY GO INTO LIMP MODE FOR THIS CONDITION WHILE DRIVING. I AM SUBMITTING A PORTION OF THE REPORT WITH MY PERSONAL INFORMATION COVERED.
