problem #2

Oct 162007

RAV4 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 5,000 miles
Details: The vehicle has frequent problems with acceleration when cold. Car has no power when trying to enter traffic. I will step on the gas, begin moving, then the engine will bog down and I will have no acceleration at all. I have taken this up to my dealer, and their explanation is that nothing is wrong. However, this problem can occur when ever it is cold.
