Acceleration pedal problem. Car fails to respond to acceleration pedal sometimes while in motion. Car can stop moving in traffic or during turns (especially left turns). This is very dangerous and life threatening. Although pedal sensor was changed given the error code, the car still show the same issue. Lexus must take responsibility for dangerous design as it lacks a fail safe mechanism to their drive by wire. Failure in acceleration is as dangerous as failure in braking.
