New 2007 toyota camry 4cyl , 5 spd a/t , excessive lag time with the accelerator. Very unresponsive . I have had many close calls while changing lanes and making left turns because you hit the gas and nothing happens for seconds. You have to gun the pedal in the hopes it moves quickly to get out of the way. It happens at any speed or rpm. Dealer says ,it's designed that way. Unnacceptable. *nm

My 2007 camry has a serious hesitation effect. When the accelerator is pressed, it takes a few seconds to engage, thus sometimes causing a dangerous delay in moving the car. The dealership told me this was the way the 2007 camry's were made to operate, and thus could not be "fixed." *jb

Had i known that this newer model was going to be scary to drive i would have never purchased it. Like so many others, i was told by the dealer that…

Toyotas latest recall should not be a floor mat or stuck accelerator problem. My 2007 camry has experienced this scenerio at least several times a year (even though i know it exists). The problem is the design of the brake pedal and accelerator pedal. The brake pedal (when braking) is closer to the floor than the height of the un-depressed accelerator pedel. If the driver has big feet or is not precise when placing…
