Car spit oil for miles and all cars like mine have this exact same problem. It is very disappointing that toyota knows about this but refuse to fix it. I had to fix this problem out of pocket and seeing the history with so many problems, i had no choice but to sale the car. *tr

I bought this car brand new in 2007 and have been having issues with it since 2009 with the car burning oil. I took it to the toyota dealership ( not the one i bought the car from) on several occasions and they had no explanation for it. I would get my scheduled oil changes and before it was due to get the next, the oil light would come on signaling the oil was low. When i would go to check my oil, sure enough,…

Engine revs up on its own and the car suddenly accelerates once reaching 95mph w/o my foot being on the gas. The brakes do not respond at first and when they do the car begins to shake violently; it takes about 3 to 4 min to get the car to slow down. Pulling the hand brake does nothing. Thus far this has happened four times. The first time once i got down to 15mph i just turned off the motor. The other times the car…

The engine often hesitates for several seconds when i step on the gas. This often happens when i am rapidly accelerating to enter a freewayor simply pulling away from a stop light. This is a dangerous situation as i need the car to accelerate to enter fast moving traffic but i cannot count on the engine to rapidly speed up. After several seconds of hesitation, the car then accelerates too rapidly. I have had an…

Going through a car wash caused the cabin filter to fill with water. Air could not pass through vents. Vehicle smells foul inside. Dealer says using car wash is not recommended and should avoid driving in hard rain. No attempt to repair was made. My camry is not weather-proof! *tr

Own a 2005 toyota camry le-v6. Poor acceleration!!! Dealer played it off as it's a computer throttle so it takes time for throttle and engine to communicate!!?? So in other words live with it. Very fearful on highways as the car doesn't accelerate to keep up with passing or merging vehicles. Hard to take off from complete stop without hesitation. Very unsafe. No recalls at this time. Hopefully there will be since i…
