    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…

    2006 camry xle i-4 transmission fluid changed at 30k miles came out black!! This means the fluid is being burned. Car not abused. Driven in 3rd & 2nd on two days 25 days apart down road to yosemite brake used to keep speed down. Only time i can think of that added stress to transmission. Another time i had to step/floor accelerator on freeway on-ramp up grade to keep fast moving semi-truck from running me over. This…

    4 cylinder automatic transmission console shifter mechanism is supposed to lock when placed into park. Safety lock should not release shifter from park unless the key is in the ignition, and the brake pedal and release button on shifter are both depressed. On my car, the shifter will come out of park just by moving it, whether or not the key is in the ignition, and whether or not the brake pedal and/or the release…

    I have a 2006 toyota camery v6 and it has major transmission problems. The transmission doesn't properly change gears. The car drives slower than a car with a v4 engine. It seems to stall for a few seconds when attempting to change gears. I've taken it the dealer 4 times. Currently this car only has 12,000 miles and the dealer changed the transmission once. When i came back again and again with the same complaint…

    06/07 camry v6 and 07 avalon have a 1 second delay or longer on acceleration. I feel this delay is very dangerous. This occurs at any speed and is dangerous because you press on accelerator farther down than required because of the delay and the car lurches forward after the delay. My dealer says all 5 speed auto transmission cars for toyota have this delay and they cannot fix it. My dealer is not disclosing this to…
