In 2007 we leased a new camry along with another new toyota product on the same day. My wife has had the accelerator stick on her and she had to use the emergency brake to stop the car and ran off the road. She narrowly avoided having a terrible accident in the car while my four year old daughter was in the car with her. The dealership picked up the car and attempted to fix it. The first time my wife drove the car…

There is a few seconds delay when depressing the accelerator pedal on my '07 camry se. I have mentioned this problem with the car from the very beginning to others who say they also have that issue with their camry. Any delay in acceleration is a safety hazard on the highway. Now with all the defects that toyota seems to have been denying with the acceleration system i realize it is even more grave. *tr

Intermittently, the vehicle will not respond to the throttle. The problem happens frequently, particularly when i brake and decelerate from above 30mph, then make a turn, such as exiting an off ramp, at about 5-20 mph, i press the accelerator to accelerate out of the turn, and the throttle does not respond for about 3 to 15 seconds. I consider this a serious safety issue where i cannot depend on the vehicle…

3-4 second delay in response time when making a fast lane change - enough time to cause a serious accident. This happened once in heavy city traffic and once in the evening when there was little traffic. The dealership performed an ecm calibration enhancement to correct another problem of hesitation with the acceleration & then a quick surge forward. This was performed after the first incident; however, it did not…

The slip, buck and when you take your foot off of the gas pedal around 40 miles an hour, the car continues to go forward." why didn't you people do something years ago????????????? *tr

Car will hesitate for nearly 3 seconds when pressing the accelerator hard to enter a freeway from 30-40mph on the entrance ramp. Does not repeat itself as the car has to be under a certain load, throttle position, and speed. The randomness of the issue will leave you startled and cringing in fear of a near miss. Engine seems to stall then transmission will finally drop down one gear which is not enough to bring the…

Car, since new, has an issue where it seems to stall while accelerating moderately to wot from a speed range beginning around 30-35mph to around 50mph based on certain conditions. Mostly happens when accelerating to enter a highway or to make a lane change/pass. The power output of the engine seems to be pulled back by the ecm (like toyota's traction control) as it does not seem to lug like a manual in too high a…

I bought 07 camry from local toyota dealership in 2007. From the start i've noticed the car was consuming oil. There is no trace of leak anywhere but was taking oil. Without much thought, i would add oil as needed. As the mileage start to rack up, the problem is too obvious and it is getting worse. At the beginning, i did not know how much oil was being consumed. Then i stared to use ticker oil hoping the problem…

2007 camry-transmissions hesitates-was in 3 + times to correct...not corrected. The vehicle is dangerous and very unsafe. Was recalibrated twice, problem still exists. Have had numerous near miss accidents due to this hesitation in the transmission. Went through toyota arbitration, was denied. There is a real design defect with this vehicle and should be considered very unsafe to operate. *tr

I have a 2007 camry le and experience a delay in acceleration from a stop to 25 mph. It does not occur all the time but i've experience it 4 times in the last 5 months. The car hesitate for about 3 seconds before starting to move. One time an suv had to steer to avoid me as i was making a left turn. This seems to be common base on the complains i've seen on this website. *nm
