Fuel Injection Problems of Toyota Avalon

I have filed a complaint with Toyota regarding the hesitation and erratic shifting of our 2005 Avalon. I was told that it was due to the way the computer controls the new 5 speed transmission in conjunction with their electronic fuel injection control. In researching this problem,I have read where many other Avalon owners have also experienced this. On sun. ,03/12/06,I had just exited route 80 eastbound (exit 27) in n. J. And proceeded to merge with traffic on route 206 and had to immediately make a left turn. As I pressed on accelerator,the vehicle simply did not respond (hesitation) and, when it did engage after a second or two,lunged forward. This startled all in the car (myself and 2 passengers) and was a very unsafe occurrence as traffic was heavy and moving fast. The vehicle has approx. 7500 miles on it and will be a year old in June,2006. I have an appointment for service with my dealership on tues. ,03/21. They are to go over the car and check to see if there are any tech. Service bulletins. I have been checking on existence of TSB since shortly after buying the vehicle. I am not optimistic. This is a serious problem and Toyota should be doing something about it! thank you.

My air bag light comes on 1 or 2 times a month, while driving. It stays on for 15-30 seconds. My next problem is that my engine check light came on when I started my car in 11/99. I took it to the shop and it was a faulty fuel injector. This was repaired but I don't feel this should have happen to a new car at such an early age. Also around 16,000 miles they had to replace my rotors. This also should not have happen at this early age.
