Toyota Camry transmission problems

POWER TRAIN: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION-I HAVE OWNED THIS TOYOTA CAMRY FOR APPROXIMATELY FIVE MONTHS. THE TRANSMISSION HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN. OCCASIONALLY IT SLIPS INTO THE WRONG GEAR. THE WORSE PROBLEM I ENCOUNTERED WAS FIVE WEEKS AGO WHEN I PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE AND THE VEHICLE WANTED TO GO FORWARD. I NEARLY HIT THE CAR PARKED IN FRONT OF ME. I AM GLAD NOBODY WAS WALKING IN FRONT OF THE CAR WHEN I PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO THE REVERSE GEAR. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND IF I COULD I WOULD RETURN IT BACK TO THE DEALER. SUSPENSION-WHEN IS RAINING THE CAR IS DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER ABOVE 50MPH. THE REAR OF THE CAR WANT TO GO RIGHT MAKING THE FRONT OF THE CAR GO LEFT. THE SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR HITS BUMPS ON THE ROAD. AGAIN, THE CAR IS UNSAFE AND SHOULD BE TAKEN OFF THE ROAD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 5 MPH WHEN A WATER BOTTLE THAT WAS ON THE CONSOLE HIT THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO REVERSE. THE VEHICLE NEVER MOVED BACKWARD BUT EXHIBITED A VERY LOUD, ABNORMAL SOUND. THE CONTACT APPLIED THE BRAKES AND ATTEMPTED TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NEITHER DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 6,999.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2000 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FAILED WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE GEAR AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE FORWARD WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE THEY REBUILT THE TRANSMISSION AT HIS EXPENSE. HE LATER CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS NOT VALID AND OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. COMPLAINT 1010212163 WAS FILED WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 30 MPH WHEN THE SHE NOTICED THAT HER GLASSES WERE FOGGING ABNORMALLY. THE CONTACT MOVED OFF THE ROADWAY AND AS SHE SHIFTED INTO PARK, SHE IMMEDIATELY NOTICED FLAMES COMING FROM UNDER THE SHIFTER. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CONTACTED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO A GARAGE LOT. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FIRE. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER TOOK OPENED AN INVESTIGATION TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF FAILURE. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS NO DEFECT PRESENT AND THAT THE FIRE STARTED FROM THE CUP HOLDER. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 35000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH WHEN SHE BEGAN TO HEAR A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE DID NOT RECUR. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 80,558.

I OWN A 2009 CAMRY...ONE THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED AND WILL BE ADDRESSED THROUGH MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER. HOWEVER, ON THREE OR FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS, AS I WAS BACKING OUT FROM A PARKING SPACE AND/OR MY GARAGE, AS I APPLIED MY BRAKES, THERE WOULD BE A SIMULTANEOUS ACCELERATION. I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS RELATED TO THE CURRENT ACCELERATION/FLOOR MAT ISSUE NOR MY STEPPING ON THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR AT THE SAME TIME BUT I JUST WANTED TO BRING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION IN THE EVENT THAT OTHERS HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME CONCERN. THANKS. *TR

I HAVE LATE TOYOTA CAMRY V6 WITH THE SIMILAR TO CASE #10348638 PROBLEMS - A SLUGGISH ACCELERATOR RESPONSE THOUGH NOT RELATED TO STOPS. I NOTICED IS ON THE SECOND DAY AFTER I BOUGHT A NEW CAR, BROUGHT IT TO A DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT, WAS TOLD THAT "A COMPUTER NEEDS TO ADJUST TO MY WAY OF DRIVING". BROUGHT IT AGAIN AFTER A COUPLE OF YEARS, NO PROBLEM FOUND. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT ALMOST EVERY DAY. I FOUND IT VERY ANNOYING AND DANGEROUS WHEN IT HAPPENS. *TR
