NHTSA complaint: 2015 LEXUS RX350 — POWER TRAIN
type: Event
additional type: https://schema.org/AccidentReport
start date: 2016-07-29
description: TRANSMISSION UPSHIFT AND DOWNSHIFT TIMING IS WEIRD. PRESS ACCELERATOR TO GET MORE POWER TO PASS ANY VEHICLE ON THE ROAD AND TRANSMISSION VERY UNTIMELY UPSHIFT INTO HIGHER GEAR REDUCING THE POWER TO WHEELS. CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE LACK OF POWER REQUIRES PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR EVEN HARDER. ENGINE REACTS BY DOWNSHIFTING BUT POWER COMES TO WHEELS FEW SECONDS LATER AND OTHER CARS ON ROAD ALREADY CLOSE IN AND START HONKING.
