2020 Corolla SE sputters at low speed

270 Views 2 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  invader
My car will struggle or “sputter” when I try to accelerate at a low speed. It reminds me of a manual transmission sputter because I didn’t give it enough gas. If I accelerate fast right away, I don’t notice it. My cars computer screen told me there was an issue with this and to bring it to the dealer. I take it in today and they tell me there is NOT a recall or issue. Welp then I guess the computer is crazy and so am I. Any ideas ?

What is the ambient temperature where you are?
These engines seem to not like 87 octane sometimes when its really hot. Maybe try putting 89 or 91 in it and see if that helps.
Or it could be the fuel pump recall issue but the dealer should tell you if it had that recall.

What was the displayed issue? Did the dealer mention a trouble code?
