We have a 2006 Lexus RX330 SUV. It has a very significant hesitation when trying to accelerate to change lanes or enter highway etc. We have a 3 year old and we are very scared most of the time driving on the highway with this kind of hesitation of the transmission. I have taken the SUV to the Lexus dealer and they have told me that this is a normal operation of these SUV's. we have no where to go except NHTSA to take action against Lexus like recalling these cars before this situation causes the loss of lives. Thank you. Raif caglar
