Toyota Camry transmission problems

MY 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HAD PROBLEMS FROM THE DAY THAT I PURCHASED IT. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND ALSO CONTACTED TOYOTA MOTOR SALES U.S.A. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE NATIONAL CENTER FOR DISPUTE SETTLEMENT WAS CALLED BY THE TOYOTA MOTOR SALES U.S.A. AND THEY ALSO DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR. THE CAR RACES UNEXPECTEDLY AND LURCHES FORWARD IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. I AM AFRAID THAT THE CAR IS GOING TO CRASH INTO SOMETHING OR SOMEONE. I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS TO THE ABOVE SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THE DEALER KEPT MY CAR FOR 8 DAYS ON ONE OF MY VISITS TO THEIR REPAIR SHOP AND TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. NOW THAT THE TOYOTA PROBLEM HAS BEEN MADE PUBLIC, I HOPE THAT MY COMPLAINT WILL NOT BE DISMISSED AS BEFORE. I TRIED TO ASK TOYOTA TO BUY BACK MY CAR, I NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR ONLY HAD 16 MILES ON IT. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP? I KEPT ALL OF THE COMMUNICATIONS BETWEEN THE TOYOTA AND THE NCDS SINCE THE TIME I FIRST FILED MY COMPLAINTS WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

MY 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY ROLLS BACK WHILE IN DRIVE ON A LESS THAN 10% INCLINE. IT BEHAVES LIKE A STICK SHIFT EXCEPT YOU CAN NOT CONTROL THE ROLL WITH A CLUTCH OTHER THAN PUTTING YOUR LEFT FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING BACK. I COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA NATIONAL AND NO ONE RESPONDED. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME IT'S NORMAL. CLEARLY IT IS NOT. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 CAMRY. THE CAR STARTED OFF FINE AND WITHIN A MINUTE IT DID NOT ACCELERATE EVEN WITH THE GAS PEDAL DOWN ALL THE WAY. THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT WAS ON AND I LET IT IDLE FOR 10 MINS. IT STARTED RUNNING FINE AND THERE WAS NO LONGER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. NOW THE CAR WAS ABLE TO ACCELERATE. 4 DAYS LATER, I STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND MADE A TURN TO THE LEFT AND THE CAR SLOWED DOWN AND DID NOT ACCELERATE THEREAFTER. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY BETWEEN 40-55 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BEGAN TO STICK. THERE WAS AN APPLICATION OF EXCESSIVE FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL WITH BOTH FEET. THE VEHICLE SKIDDED AND LOSS CONTROL AND SUDDENLY, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL RELEASED. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL AND RESUME TO NORMAL OPERATION. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY AT LEAST THREE TIMES A WEEK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON NINE SEPARATE OCCASIONS FOR THE IDENTICAL FAILURES. THERE WERE REPLACEMENTS OF THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE (TCM) AND TRANSMISSION. THE FAILURES CONTINUED WHICH THERE WERE NO RESOLUTIONS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

MY 2010 CAMRY WAS PURCHASED IN SEPT. 09. IN NOVEMBER I NOTICED A PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS ON A SLIGHT INCLINE, FOOT ON THE BREAK AND YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BREAK THE CAR ROLLS BACKWARDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES, WHEN IN JANUARY I FINALLY TOOK IT TO THE DEALER & WAS TOLD ALL 10 CAMRY'S DO THIS BECAUSE OF THE NEW 6 SPEED TRANSMISSION. THE SERVICE MGR. & I TOOK THE CAR FOR A TEST DRIVE, AND WE REPLICATED THE PROBLEM. I TOLD HIM I DIDN'T THINK THIS WAS NORMAL, THAT I THOUGHT IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE IF SOMEONE WAS BEHIND ME IN ANOTHER VEHICLE AND WANTED IT REPORTED TO TOYOTA - HE SAID HE WOULD AND WOULD CALL ME BACK. TO DATE I HAVE HEARD NOTHING. *TR

I OWN A 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY AND SINCE I BOUGHT IT FROM THE DEALER IT HAD BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SYSTEM AND THE ACCELERATOR . FOR EXAMPLE WHEN I STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE THE CAR TAKES TO LONG TO SHIFT TO THE NEXT GEAR AND WHILE THIS TIME ELAPSES FOR ABOUT 2 TO 4 SECONDS THE CAR KEEPS ACCELERATING WITH NO GEAR AT ALL, THIS ALMOST MAKE ME CRASH THE OTHER DAY TRYING TO AVOID A COLLISION WITH AN AGGRESSIVE DRIVER THAT GOT IN MY WAY AND I COULD NOT ADVANCE WITH THE CAR AT THAT CRUCIAL MOMENT AND GET OUT OF THE WAY OF THE SITUATION SINCE THE GEAR WAS NOT READY FOR ME TO ACCELERATE AND ADVANCE . ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT I HAVE BEEN NOTICING IS THAT WHILE AT LOW TO MEDIUM SPEEDS THE ABS BRAKING SYSTEM FAILS TO BRAKE THE CAR AFTER IT GETS OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD; SEVERAL TIMES IT HAD HAPPENED TO ME THAT AFTER I GET A BUMP I HAVE TO APPLY THE BRAKES 2 TO 3 TIMES IN A RAPID SUCCESSION TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. ALSO SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS WITH LOW RPMS THE CAR STALLS WITHOUT WARNING AND THE WHEEL GETS VERY HARD TO MANEUVER ,I EVEN HAVE TO STOP THE CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TO START THE ENGINE AGAIN AND CONTINUE WITH MY TRIP. ALL THIS COMPLAINT WAS GIVEN TO TOYOTA IN PRIORS CALLS I MADE TO THEM BUT THE DEALERS THEY SEND ME TO SEE SAID THAT WAS NORMAL OPERATION OF THE CAR ,THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. *TR

THE NEW 2007 CAMRY HAS ALWAYS HAD AN UNEVEN ACCELERATION AND SLOWING. IT IS AS THOUGH THE TRANSMISSION IS ALWAYS "SEARCHING" FOR THE CORRECT GEAR. AS A RESULT, THE ENGINE IS ALWAYS CHANGING SPEEDS. DURING THE INITIAL REPAIR, THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT THEY HAVE "A LOT" OF THESE TYPES OF COMPLAINTS AND SAID THE SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED. ON SUBSEQUENT REPAIRS I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING AND THAT TOYOTA COULD NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM THAT THE 2007 CAMRYS HAD. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE TRANSMISSION OR ACCIDENTS I WAS TOLD THAT I HAVE A WARRANTY. I E-MAILED TOYOTA BUT DID NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE AND AM UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. *TR
