My 2007 camry has had acceleration (deceleration) problems since i purchased the vehicle. After i release the accelerator, many times, the car fails to slow down for a few seconds (both in speed and rpm). I therefore have to press on the brake far more severely and urgently than i would if the car slowed down when i released the accelerator.

Only one driver so clearly has had time to "adjust" to the driver. Frequency appears to be increasing. Have almost been rearended…
