Engine light on two different times. Repaired 2nd time on warranty for $1500 for catalytic conv, 4 egr sensors etc. I fear I will pay next time out of warranty. Bought new. Well maintained, by the book.

I am experiencing a 5 to 10 second dead spot in the acceleration of my new Rav4 several times a week. Based on internet web page forum postings, I have found other new Rav4 owners that have the same problem. I have been told by the dealer that sluggish accleration is the result of a new emmisions control computer. This is beyond sluggish, the car barely moves. Pulling into traffic, accross streets and intersections, I am at risk and never know if the car is going to move or not. A new emmisions control computer has been installed in ravs since 4/01 so this problem appears to be new. I'm not getting anywhere with Toyota on this, and neither are the other owners that have this problem.
