Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The "design" of how the vehicle is to operate and driving performance issues. poor acceleration, hesitation, automatic shifting of the transmission when driving. gas mileage is not as manufacturer stated. front tires wore out at 15k miles. per the dealership no front end problems found and do not know why the tires wore out so quick while the back tires are still good. constant pulling of the vehicle. if i hit a bump the car and steering wheel jerks to one side or the other. acceleration and hesitation is a safety issue. speed overshoot after hesitation. transmission seems to stop working when trying to accelerate. the dealership states this is how the vehicle is designed to run. i was not informed of the bulletin issued in sept 2006 regarding a download of new computer software or of the fact toyota was aware of all the issues mentioned. to my understanding it did not help any of the issues. overall the vehicle is hard to drive for fear of wrecking. i am checking into lemon law. the dealerships do not know how to fix these manufacturing problems. i have had these problems since the purchase of the vehicle and still are on going. |
