Filed: Sep 2016

Your instrument panel becomes too dark to read on sunny days, forcing you to use a flashlight to see the gauges while driving. The dealer says Toyota uses dimmer LED bulbs in the SR5 model compared to the Premier model and cannot fix this issue. This visibility problem while driving is a safety concern.

While driving at 55 mph, you adjusted your driver's seat using the electronic controls, and your vehicle suddenly lurched forward and backward on its own without you pressing the accelerator. The cause of this unintended acceleration isn't clear. Toyota recommended taking your vehicle to a dealer to diagnose what triggered the sudden acceleration when you moved the seat.
