The check engine light on my manual-transmission 2007 toyota yaris will intermittently come on for a period of several hours up to several days before shutting off. This has been occurring for several months now. Sometimes when the light is on, the car accelerates on its own. It also may stall, or the engine will rev really high without the gas pedal being touched. I brought it to a mechanic that replaced one of the sensors, however the problem persists.

Recurrent accelerator pedal failure (drive by wire) with check engine light warning. Occasionally, when accelerating, the check engine light comes on and the pedal depressing action initially has no effect for several depressions and then it works minimally. This may last for a while or for just a short period. It has happened several times. I did a search online and other people are having the same problem.

This vehicle with an automatic transmission, by design, as I have been told by a toyota technician, will not upshift until the vehicle has warmed completely. This is not only a hazard in traffic and is torture on the engine, but it is a hazard when one needs to use this vehicle in an emergency situation. For instance some one needs to be transported to the hospital immediately. With this vehicle you are required to wait until it warms up before one is able to transport. There are many other situations which could be presented, but I am sure that anyone who reads this document wi8ll understand the issue. Toyota needs to recall and design the vehicle to change gears if the computer determines that the driver is determined to drive the vehicle contrary to its programmed drive pattern. I notice that the document cl-10283172-6703 has proclaimed the same problem. As reported there, the colder the temperature the longer it takes for the vehicle to warm up. This warm up period is much longer than the average warming time for a vehicle. This is a critical issue for this vehicle and any others that have the same warming requirements. If one was required to drive the vehicle in a manner inconsistent with its prescribed procedures, it appears that a blown engine would probably be the result. This is not good because toyota would not warranty the problem although they caused. Thank you for you consideration of this issue

Every morning winter or summer, I have to wait for my car to warm up in order to drive it up the road if I want to go more than 25 MPH. The transmission does not want to go out of first gear until the car is at a certain temp. I can't go up a road that is 35-45 MPH if I just started my car, otherwise there would be alot of upset people behind me because I can't go fast until the car warms up. The dealer tells me that is common for any toyota car as they make them that way to ensure they last as long as they do. You should never just get in your car and go. It needs to warm up and get fluids to the proper temperature. Is this a crock because I see other complaints and no one has mentioned that the dealer says this car should act this way and this is normal?

The vehicle does not shift correctly when going from 10 to 45 MPH. The automatic transmission will not shift correctly to the next gear. It seems to happen more when it is just starting off in the morning rather than after it warms up.
