Toyota RAV4 acceleration hesitation from a stop when turning into traffic on Toyota RAV4

Some Toyota RAV4 owners report experiencing acceleration hesitation, particularly when turning into traffic, especially in 2019 model year vehicles. This hesitation can occur from a slow roll or rolling stop, particularly under conditions such as immediately following a downshift with less than 40% accelerator pedal application. Although the Engine Control Module (ECM) logic has been modified to mitigate this issue, some drivers still report instances where the vehicle does not accelerate for a couple of seconds after making a turn or changing lanes. Additionally, there have been reports of intermittent total loss or delay of acceleration power when pressing the gas from a stop, which contributes to the slow response when transitioning from a stop to acceleration. It is advisable for owners experiencing these issues to have their vehicles inspected by a qualified technician or dealership to address any underlying performance concerns.
