| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: My 2002 lexus 300 has a dangerous and significant hesitation and shifting problem. acceleration is sluggish and then surges forward suddenly causing the vehicle to move forward unexpectedly. in addition, there is a repeated shifting problem at low speeds wherein the vehicle continuously shifts in and out of overdrive, again with unexpected and uncontrollable results. the dealer indicated this was the way these cars were engineered and did an firmware upgrade. however, the problem persists in much the same way. *jb |
