While driving my Tacoma truck it has gone into "limp mode" (looses power and you can get but about 25mph) when I have pulled out into traffic 5 times over the last 3 years. I took it to a Toyota dealership on 4/28/2023 for evaluation but no codes where found to indicate a problem. When the truck goes into limp mode I pull over and cut the engine off. I immediately turn the engine back on and the truck operates normally. I know this is a protective system but if you are pulling out into traffic and the truck goes into limp mode for no good reason, it could result in an accident. In addition, the trucks computer system is not registering the event. I haven't noticed any warning lamps, messages prior to the failure. I did notice that the truck shuck prior to going into limp mode.

2020 Toyota Tacoma trd sport, transmission lurks from reverse into drive you have to press the brake pedal a little harder than normal to keep from lurking. Sometimes the vehicle seems to loose power when down shifting while accelerating (going around a corner). The truck also seems like its hunting for a gear around the 35mph or 43 mph, on flat surface, going down hill, or going up hill. This also happens on the interstate while going 65-70mph, which would be cause for concern. This feels like its a transmission issue but also could be an engine misfire of a spark plug or something. This happens on a daily basis, purchase date of 9.11.2020.

With the truck warmed up: Pushing the gas pedal almost to the floor to enter traffic the truck just sat there and did not move this happened twice. The only way the truck would move was to push the gas pedal slow and enter the flow of traffic at reduced speed. With the truck warmed up: Putting the truck in reverse and pushing on the gas pedal the truck did nothing. Taking my foot off the gas pedal while still in reverse the truck lunged backwards. I had to stop the truck with my foot on the brake. The truck lunged backwards in reverse twice while giving it gas. With the truck warmed up: Stopped at a red light with my foot on the brake, I lifted my foot off the brake to move forward and the engine revved up and lunged forward I had to stop the truck with my foot on the brake because it was moving so fast and I was not pushing the gas pedal.

2020 Toyota Tacoma trd off road has severe hesitation issues during warm startup. Truck cranks over fine but drags for an extended period of time before firing. There is a noticeable smell of gasoline when this happens. Sometimes the starter seems to stick and makes a loud grinding noise. Other times there is an audible single click/pop noise immediately after pushing the start button but the truck still starts. After the truck is started it will occasionally idle rough and the tachometer will dip low and the truck will shake slightly as if the truck is going to stall. Toyota continues to deny anything is amiss despite me providing video evidence and duplicating the issue in front of them myself. They continue to refuse to do any reasonable amount of work to fix my vehicle under warranty. Here is a link to videos of the issue for reference of the severity: Https://youtu.be/Z-w-fd8gziu

Vehicle struggles to start with normal starting procedures. Vehicle's ignition delays normal starting procedures sometimes allowing the key to be held systematically for an abnormal period of time before vehicle starting. If vehicle fails to start in the first try within 3-5 seconds vehicle would crank but would not start. Then a second attempt would have to be made. This is not common for a gas engine vehicle. Was taken to dealer for further inspection and service advisor said this is normal for most late model Tacoma.
