NHTSA Complaint #11653862 — 2024 LEXUS TX

Starting from a stop in a residential neighborhood, stepped on the gas to go and turn left and the vehicle hesitated and lacked power. It almost felt like it was trying to start from a stop in too high of a gear, but this is a 6 speed automatic vehicle. After panicking a little, backing off the accelerator pedal and stepping on it again, power came back so I could complete the turn. If there were other cars coming straight through the intersection, I would have been hit. Informed my local dealer about it and that the Toyota Grand Highlander Hybrid has a service bulletin (T-SB-0017-24) to address this very issue I encountered and that the Lexus TX500h has a similar drivetrain set up, but was told Lexus has no such service bulletin to address this issue. There were no warning lamps or indications from the vehicle that anything was wrong and it has only happened once so far, a few days ago, since I purchased the vehicle new at the beginning of December 2024.
