2014 Toyota Camry

The vehicle has a shudder at accelerating that will prevent proper acceleration. I had a few incidents where I needed to get out of a traffic situation that out me in danger and the vehicle almost stalled. I read about this shudder, Toyota das a warranty engagement notification-ZE5. However it was for 8 years and under 150000 miles. I am well under 150000 but just over 8 years.

When accelerating from a stop the vehicle will sometimes move about 10 feet and then hesitate for about 1 to 2 seconds. It will then accelerate normally. One time the vehicle accelerated to about 20 mph and then the engine rpm returned to idle. The accelerator was pushed to the floor and the rpm remained at idle. The accelerator was released and pushed down again. The vehicle accelerated normally. This happened only one time. The intermittent hesitation is very dangerous when trying to cross a busy intersection when the cross traffic is uncontrolled. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for the problem. The technician could not duplicate the condition. The U760E torque converter shudder recall upgrade was performed. This did not fix the problem. The service advisor said that the technician said that some transmission hesitation was normal. The service advisor also said there had been other complaints about this condition. This condition is dangerous and not normal.

I have experienced issues with my vehicle when shifting since 2017 withal minor “shudder” after shifting into a higher gear. Now, my vehicle has begun to have trouble shifting from first gear to second. When shifting, the vehicle will abruptly stop before catching in second gear and continuing. It has become a concern as I am not confident to pull out onto busy roads.

I HAD MY BREAKS CHANGED BACK IN JULY, BEFORE I LEFT ON MILITARY ORDERS. WHEN I CAME BACK HOME, I NOTICED MY CAR WASN'T WORKING PROPERLY. I WOULD HAVE TO PRESS REALLY HARD FOR THEM TO WORK. OR THEY WOULD STILL BE ENGAGED LIKE, MAKING IT HARDER FOR ME TO DRIVE. AS WELL MY CAR WOULD REV UP, IN PARK MODE. OR WHILE I'M WAITING AT A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. I'VE NOTICED A POPPING SOUND ON LEFT SIDE OF MY CAR AS WELL. MY ELECTRIC SYSTEM WILL SOMETIMES CUT OFF EVERYTHING IN MY CAR. I WILL HAVE TO TURN CAR OFF WAIT A FEW MINS AND TURN IT BACK ON. I HAVE HAD CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON, I TOOK IT TO BODY SHOP. THEY RAN A TEST ON IT. AND STATED EVERYTHING WAS FINE, AND REST CODES. I USE THIS CAR TO AND FROM WORK. I GET FREQUENTLY MAINTENANCE CHECKS. THE ONLY THING I'VE HAD DONE TO CARE WAS REPLACEMENT OF HEAD LIGHT FROM A DEER HITTING ME. I'VE NOTICED MALFUNCTION PRIOR TO DEER HITTING ME. I WAS TOLD BY BODY SHOP TO REPORT ISSUES.

WE PURCHASED A CERTIFIED USED 2014.5 TOYOTA CAMRY FROM BAXTER TOYOTA IN APRIL 2014. THE ENGINE HAS ALWAYS RUN A BIT ROUGH AND WE HAD IT CHECKED BY BAXTERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT SEVERAL TIMES AND WERE TOLD THAT "THAT WAS NORMAL FOR THAT PARTICULAR YEAR, HOWEVER, WITH THE 2020 RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP ISSUE IT SOUNDS LIKE WE MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND WOULD APPRECIATE IF WE COULD AT LEAST HAVE OUR FUEL PUMP CHECK OUT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RECALL.

WHEN CAR WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, CAR MADE A LOUD NOISE AND STARTED SHAKING. THEN CAR ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. BRAKES LOCKED. CAR WOULDN'T STOP IN NEUTRAL OR IN PARK GEAR. IT CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BY REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. CAR ACCELERATED VERY QUICKLY AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AS WELL. PASSENGER IN CAR HEARD THE NOISE TOO. THE CAR ACCELERATED ABRUPTLY ON ITS OWN.
