Has a hesitation when you press the gas pedal almost like too much fuel at one time and then all of the sudden it will launch forward. When this happens while turning it will cause you to redirect your steering quickly or you will end up on someone else's side of the road.and when pulling out from stop signs or signal lights is very scary and is a safety concern for me.not having power when needed is very unsafe for me and the other surrounding drivers.

Car shudders/shakes when I start to drive after a stoplight. Usually happens after the car has been on for a while and the engine is hot. Took car for an oil change and noticed a lot of oil dripping from underneath the car later that day (2 inch diameter spots). Took the car to a mechanic, and they said the shuddering/shaking is caused by an issue with the clutch. I just bought this car new, and did not expect to have an issue already. This is a manufacturer defect.

Clunk noise shifting from 1st to 2nd gear... I have experienced this from the day I picked up the car from the dealer on 9/29/16 (45 miles on car then).. I thought at first I imagined it or just needed to get used to this car since I had just turned in a 2014 lease car back to Toyota so big difference in these 2 cars..
