"Very nice car, but many problems"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Dysfunctional fuel gauge, which I was told was because of an after-market amp and speakers I had installed, ha!

Completely shut down twice while driving down the road.

Hesitation when the gas is pushed to the floor, it will not go like it used to.

Erratic shifting.

General comments?

My IS300 also hesitates when the accelerator is pushed. Furthermore, I have had 5 blow-outs and 4 damaged rims in less than 16,000 miles. I would not recommend this car with 17" rims or larger to anyone in the greater NY area! Purchase an SUV!

Turn off the traction control and it won't hesitate. If you want more power, then turn the Power mode ON (Power button).

It is the best car I ever had. I am going to get me another IS250/350. Although the BMW 3 series drives the best, but it is a over-rated car with all sorts of electrical problems and computer failures.
