2007 Toyota Camry Solara

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A BRAND NEW TOYOTA SOLARA 2007 IN APRIL 2007. SINCE THEN I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER FOR MORE THEN 5 TIMES IN 3 MONTHS FOR THE SAME DEFECT. BUT THEY CANNOT REPAIR IT. I REALIZED THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATE ON ACCELERATION ON ALL OCCASION. WHENEVER I MAKE A TURN (LET OR RIGHT TURN) THE CAR WILL "PAUSE" AND LOST IN POWER, LOST OF TRANSMISSION FOR SECONDS. THE CAR SIMPLY "RETARDED" AND SIMPLY ROLL ON THE ROAD WITHOUT TRANSMISSION CONTROL...WHENEVER I NEED TO STEP ON GAS TO ESCAPE FROM A SITUATION ON THE FREEWAY, THE CAR AGAIN WILL "PAUSE" AND HESITATE, I REGARD THAT THE CAR IS "RETARDED". IT SIMPLY LOST IN TRANSMISSION DURING THAT SHORT PAUSE, I FELT SO DANGEROUS ON THE ROAD WITH SUCH DEFAULTED VEHICLE. I READ ON THE COMPLIANT FROM NHTSA AND SURPRISE TO FIND THAT THERE ARE SO MANY OF THE CAMRY OWNER ARE FACING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE TOYOTA SOLARA IS ALSO A CAMRY BREED, HENCE I THINK THESE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS SHOUD WARRANT THE GOVERNMENT TO ACT AGAINST THE TOYOTA MANUFACTURER TO DO A RECALL AND REPAIR. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED WITH TOYOTA, I HOPE I WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED WITH NHTSA TO START DOING SOMETHING GOOD FOR US THE CONSUMER WITH ALL THESE COMPLAINTS. SINCERELY. *TR

THERE IS A MAJOR DELAY AT TIMES WHEN THE CAR IS ASKED TO ACCELERATE- IF GOING APPROX 20 MPH AND WANT TO ACCELERATE INTO FAST LANE YOU NEVER KNOW HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE THE CAR TO RESPOND TO THE DEPRESSED GAS PEDDLE. THE CAR ALSO APPEARS TO DROP A GEAR OCC WHEN SLOWING DOWN. TOYOTA STATES THIS IS BECAUSE THE CAR HAS LEARNED THE WAY YOU LIKE TO DRIVE AND RESPONDS THAT WAY. WON'T ALLOW ANYONE ELSE TO DRIVE THE CAR DUE TO THIS DANGER AND UNPREDICTABILITY HAS ALWAYS ACTED THIS WAY. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA SOLARA. ACCORDING TO THE CONTACT, THE OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THAT THERE IS A SEAT BELT WARNING CHIME FOR THE SEAT BELTS. HE STATED THAT HIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE THAT FEATURE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT HIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE THAT SAFETY FEATURE. HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER VERIFIED HIS VIN AND CONFIRMED THAT THE VEHICLE DOES HAVE THAT FEATURE. HE CONTACTED THE DEALER AGAIN AND THEY REPEATED THEIR PREVIOUS STATEMENT. THE TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST THAT INDICATED THE FEATURE WAS NOT ON THE VEHICLE AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THIS IS MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 2,500 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I AM AN OWNER OF A 2007 TOYOTA SOLARA WITH WHAT I BELIEVE TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE CONCERNING THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS. WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT THE LIGHTS CAST A DISTINCTIVE SHADOW AND LINE WITH DARKNESS AT TOP AND LIGHT AT THE BOTTOM. AND DEPENDING ON THE CONTOUR OF THE ROAD AT TIMES IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE AND PRESENTS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DRIVING HAZARD. AMD OFTEN ON COMING TRAFFIC THINK I HAVE MY HIGH BEAMS ON AND THEY PUT THEIR HIGH BEAMS ON BLINDING ME TO ROAD AHEAD. AFTER ARBITRATION WITH A TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE THE SITUATION HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED TO MY SATISFACTION. *NM
