I called the dealer the next day because they were closed after i picked up the car, and told them what was going on. they said, its ok the tranny just has to settle in. on saturday, while driving around i noticed a hard bang noise while moving about 2-5mph.. i could feel the bang all the way through the brake paddle. this happend about 3 times that day, 3 time the next and 4 times today. So i decided to call toyota service center. all they did is take down what is going on, nothing else. so then i started calling around other dealer to see what they suggest. some said, well if you would have bought the car from us we would have just swaped it for you. others said they would have to do a trade in, in that case i would end up loosing a lot of money. on wendnday i am taking the car in so that a toyota tech rep can take a look at it. also so they can figure out what the hell is going on with the bang noise. does anyone have any advice for me. oh and the lemon law prosses will take months.

what sucks even more is that this car is a Tuscany edition. and the jbl sterio. and i would hate to loose all that.

Not to mention that the lemon law applies only to cars purchased new.
