I BEEN EXPERIENCING UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ON THE HIGHWAY MAYBE ABOUT 3 TO 5 HOURS INTO DRIVING. THE CAR JERKS AND PICKS UP SPEED A FEW MILES PER HOUR. AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE ATTACHED PHOTO. I HAVE MANY ATTEMPTS WITH THE DEALER TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT BUT THE PROBLEM HASN'T BEEN DUPLICATED. THE CAR ALSO HAS A SLUGGISH TAKE OFF INTERMITTENTLY AND YOU CAN HEAR THE TRANSMISSION DRAGGING AT TIMES. I ALSO HAVE VIDEO FOOTAGE AND MORE PHOTOS. THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD ALSO GIVES INCORRECT SPEED RATINGS.

AT 4500 MILES THE NORMAL INDICATORS OF "NEED MAINTENANCE SOON" APPEARED ON THE ALERT SCREEN. SOON THEREAFTER I HAD A "CHECK BRAKING SYSTEM" LIGHT COME ON WHILE I WAS IN REVERSE MODE CAUSING THE PARKING BRAKE SIGN TO REMAIN ILLUMINATED EVEN THOUGH I LET GO OF THE FOOT BRAKE. DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ERRONEOUS ALARM. I WAS ALSO ASKED IF I SPENT TIME DRIVING THE CAR WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND ON THE ACCELERATOR SIMULTANEOUSLY (WHICH OF COURSE I DID NOT). THE VERY NEXT DAY AFTER DRIVING 20 MILES AND IN PARK, THE ALERT SYSTEM SHOWED "CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM". THE MANUAL STATES THIS IS A SERIOUS ALERT AND DRIVING THE CAR WITH THIS ON COULD CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOWED THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP ONLY TO TELL ME AFTER A THOROUGH INSPECTION THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG AND TO ONLY WORRY IF THE ALERT CAME ON WHILE I WAS DRIVING THE CAR. I HAVE NOT YET BEEN GIVEN AN EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THESE ALARMS ARE CONTINUING TO COME ON. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT ALL THESE ALARMS HAVE BEEN REMOVED BY THE DEALERSHIP BUT I HAVE TO TAKE THEM SERIOUSLY AT ALL TIMES.
