There has been many times that when I needed the car to accelerate it wouldn't, nearly causing an accident several times. What usually happens is I will come up to a corner to make a turn and instead of stopping I accelerate to avoid oncoming traffic only to have the car hesitate. Sometimes I have had to push the accelerator peddle to the floor and even then it takes some time for the car to move faster. Also I have found that in traffic I will need to accelerate to avoid a collision only to find the car does not downshift and seemingly hesitating. Now not every time does this happen, but it happens sporadically. This dangerous, and I asked the dealer to check out the transmission, which they did but they found nothing. It was on July 19, 2017 that I took the car to the dealer, lombard Toyota customer #103445, invoice #382304.

Manual transmission shudder. Clutch and flywheel was changed at 535 miles. 20 miles later same issues but only at first from a dead stop. Now at 2100 miles the car has the shudder in 5/6 gears as well between 59mph to 72. Also manual gear lever started to develop 1/4 inch play side to side. Its hard to put in first/second at times due to play.
