2018 Toyota Camry

COLLISION DETECTION ENGAGES WHEN NO ONE CLOSE TO FRONT OF VEHICLE AT HIGH SPEED. OUR 2018 CAMRY ENGAGED THE COLLISION DETECTION AT ABOUT 65 MPH ON I-85 IN ATLANTA AND ABOUT WRECKED US. NO ONE WAS EVEN CLOSE TO THE FRONT THE VEHICLE OR STOPPING OR STOPPED AND IT LOCKED THE BRAKES UP SOLID FOR LIKE 5-10 SECONDS. THE VEHICLES BEHIND US ALMOST REAR ENDED US FROM IT ENGAGING WITHOUT WARNING. IT SCARED THE LIVING PISS OUT MY WIFE AND I. WE WONT EVEN DRIVE IT ON THE INTERSTATE ANY MORE OR CLOSELY FOLLOW SOMEONE. THE VEHICLE NEEDS FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED IN IT. I'M JUST REPORTING IT NOW BECAUSE I BEEN GIVEN THIS WEBSITE BY A LAWYER.

4-CYLINDER XSE HAS SIGNIFICANT ACCELERATION DELAY AFTER DEPRESSING THE PEDAL; THIS IS ESPECIALLY APPARENT WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A ROLLING STOP AT APPROXIMATELY 15-25 MPH. OCCASIONALLY, THE GEAR WILL ALSO SHIFT ABRUPTLY WHEN ACCELERATING FROM 15-25 MPH, CAUSING THE CAR TO LURCH FORWARD SUDDENLY. THIS IS DANGEROUS; IF THERE IS A CAR IN FRONT OF YOU, THERE IS A HIGH CHANCE OF CAUSING A REAR END ACCIDENT.

THE CAR HAS ACCELERATION/SPEED PROBLEMS. IT TAKES TOO LONG TO ACCELERATE WHEN CHANGING LANES, PASSING OTHER VEHICLE, OR ENTERING FREEWAY. THIS ISSUE IS GOING ON ALL AND EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. I PURCHASED THE CAR ONE MONTH AGO. THIS IS MY 5TH CAMRY AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. CAR IS UNSAFE AND IM SCARED TO DRIVE. TOYOTA, DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE DIES!!!!!!!!!!. I ALMOST GOT REAR-ENDED COUPLE OF TIMES

2018 CAMRY 8 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS DOWNSHIFTING PROBLEMS. THIS INVOLVES A DELAY IN DOWNSHIFTING THAT I HAVE FOUND ON 3 OCCASIONS COULD HAVE BEEN DANGEROUS. UPON COMPLETING A TURN AND REAPPLYING GAS PEDAL THE CAR APPEARED TO BE IN NEUTRAL OR STUCK BETWEEN GEARS. I HAD A DEAD GAS PEDAL FOR 3 OR 4 SECONDS. ON 1 OCCASION I COULD HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN A REAR END COLLISION IF THE OTHER DRIVER HADN'T REALIZED SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND SWERVED TO AVOID MY CAR. I CURRENTLY HAVE LEMON LAW COMPLAINT FILED WITH THE STATE ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE INVOLVING THIS CAR AND IT'S TRANSMISSION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, AN ABNORMAL THUMPING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. ANOTHER MOTORIST ALERTED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING FUEL. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST ONTO THE SHOULDER AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO CENTRAL TOYOTA (11020 SOUTH ORANGE BLOSSOM TRAIL, ORLANDO, FL 32837). THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK PLASTIC SHIELD AND THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK FRACTURED, WHICH CAUSED THE FUEL TO LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

I OVERALL LOVE MY NEW CAMRY XSE EXCEPT FOR TWO THINGS: 1-THE FEEDBACK ON THE HANDS FREE PHONE IS SO BAD NO ONE WILL TALK TO ME HANDS FREE EXCEPT MY FAMILY. THERE IS A HORRIBLE ECHO THAT MAKES IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT FOR THE PERSON CALLING ME TO HEAR ME. THEY STATE ALL THEY CAN HEAR PRIMARILY IS THE ECHO OF THEIR OWN VOICE. WHEN AN ISSUE IS SO BAD THAT THE HANDS FREE SYSTEM-WHICH IS MEANT TO IMPROVE SAFETY WHILE DRIVING-THAT YOU NEVER USE IT, IT SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. I SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FROM ALMOST EVERYONE REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE. 2-ABOUT 1 OUT OF 20 TIMES I GET A CALL, IT COMES THROUGH WITH A VERY STRANGE RINGING SOUND THAT WILL NOT STOP UNTIL I STOP THE CAR & TURN IT OFF THEN ON AGAIN. I HAVE VIDEO OF THIS HAPPENING (I DON'T BELIEVE I CAN ATTACH A VIDEO HERE BUT I DO HAVE IT) AND I ALSO CANNOT ANSWER THE CALL AT ALL-IT WILL RING NONSTOP FOR OVER 30 MINUTES IF I DON'T PULL OVER AND STOP/RESTART MY CAR. BOTH OF THESE ISSUES ARE EXTREMELY ANNOYING CONSIDERING THE MONEY I PAID FOR THE CAR, I DIDN'T EXCEPT THESE TYPES OF ISSUES.

TOYOTA CAMRY XLE V6 HAS TRANSMISSION ISSUES. FIRST 5000 MI SERVICE HAS ALREADY BEEN COMPLETED. CAR CURRENTLY HAS ~8K MILES AND HAS NOT IMPROVED. (1) FIRST GEAR DOES NOT SHIFT SMOOTHLY TO SECOND. CAR JOLTS DURING THIS SHIFT. ISSUE IS WORSE WHEN THE CAR IS COLD, BUT CAN BE REPRODUCED EVEN WHEN IT IS WARMED UP. (2) TRANSMISSION TAKES A LONG TIME TO DOWNSHIFT AFTER ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED. SEEMS TO BE VERY CONFUSED IN PICKING THE RIGHT GEAR. (3) TRANSMISSION IS TOO EAGER TO DOWNSHIFT WHEN ACCELERATOR IS NOT PRESSED AND CAR IS SLOWING DOWN. THIS RESULTS IN ROUGH JOLTS AS THE CAR IS SLOWING DOWN OR BRAKING.

NEW 2018 CAMRY SE WITH 458 MILES, 4 CYLINDER/8 SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. CAR HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND CANNOT SEEM TO FIND THE CORRECT GEAR. MOST NOTICEABLE BETWEEN 1ST AND 3RD GEARS. ALSO, DYNAMIC BRAKING SUPPORT PUT ME IN A DEAD STOP AS I WAS TRYING TO DEPART THE LANE TO AVOID A FRONT AND REAR END COLLISION. I HAD ALREADY APPLIED ENOUGH MANUAL BRAKE BUT WANTED TO QUICKLY ACCELERATE OUT OF THE LANE TO CREATE SPACE. THIS AUTOMATIC DEAD STOP DUE TO THE DYNAMIC BRAKING SYSTEM WAS A SCARY SURPRISE THAT NEARLY CAUSED A PILE UP. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE THESE ISSUES.
