    I am reporting the same stagnation issue that many others reported on 2007 toyota camry. I bought this car in march 2006 and started noticing this issue within a month of driving. So far i had at least 12 instances of this. It happens when i try to accelerate suddenly to a higher speed. The car stalls for 20-40 seconds before it speed up. Many time it pulled me into risk while at merging to a main road traffic and…

    I'm writing to detail my issues with my 07 toyota camry v6. I have had it one year and the hesitation upon accelerating is still there even after a supposed 'fix' by my selling dealer. The tranny sometimes hesitates as much as 2-3 seconds b4 actually moving forward as intended. I also have extreme frustration with the interior plastics. The dash rattles more than my old 97 pontiac. The other major issue is the…

    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…

    In september 2006 i traded a perfectly performing 4 cyl 2006 camry for a 2007 4 cyl camry because i liked the new design. I still like the new design but have been quite annoyed and concerned about the car's failure to accelerate when needed. From a complete stop or near stop when a quick take-off is needed the initial response is at times zilch/zero/0. I have taken the car back to the dealer who had the computer…

    The accelerator of my toyota camry 2007 (purchased in april of 2007) has the "hesitation issue". The car doesn't proceed at all or gain enough speed to proceed immediately after my stepping on the gas pedal from a full-stopped position. I had an accident on 10/02/07 partially due to the issue because i couldn't avoid fast enough a vehicle making a reckless left-turn. There was no injury among riders in my car…

    I purchased a 2007 camry 4 cylinder in sept 2006. This is the 6th toyota i have owned and is by far the worst reforming. I have 8000 miles on the car and have had problems with the transmission since the initial purchase. The car is not safe to drive as it presently performs. It significantly hesitates when accelerating such as when entering a highway or changing lanes on the interstate. There is a noticeable 1-2…

    When starting out, if it is necessary to accelerate quickly, my 2007 toyota camry practically stalls before finally picking up speed. It does not happen every time, but when it does it is unnerving, to say the least! It is quite dangerous, and i have come close to being hit several times. Now i just make sure i have an excess of space before i pull out of a side street or parking area.*jb

    The car slows suddenly while slowing down at around 40 mph and you will feel like some one holding the car from moving forward. And suddenly accelerates at around 25 mph even if you are not pushing the gas pedal. That day there was a traffic congestion on a highway and the traffic was moving around 40 mph. I was about to hit another car in front of me because of this problem, but i managed by braking the car with…
