I have a 2012 toyota camry. While making a turn the car loses acceleration. If the turn is long, as in a cloverleaf exit, the vehicle will almost stop. Pressing the gas has no effect. The vehicle will lag until it almost stops or until you come out of the turn. From what i find on the internet, this is a common problem with 2012 and later toyota camrys but dealers stonewall about it. I hope you get enough complaints…

This problem is from a dead stop as well as from slow speed while turning and leaving an intersection.this camery was purchased in 2015, and the dealership has refused to acknowledge this problem since first reported, which was in 2015. Over 300 toyota customers have…

While driving on any road between 20 and 40 mph, 3rd and 4th speed, the transmission shudders and while pressing the gas, the vehicle hesitates. Sometimes it is somewhat clear to accelerate, other times it feels like you are fighting a wall that will not move. I believe from what i have read that it has to do with the ecu and a possible faulty torque converter. This should be looked into by the nhtsa proactively,…

The fuel pump.ofnthe car stopped working while the car was on the highway. Fortunately was in the rightmost lane so was able to manoeuvr to the shoulder, but the car immediately stalled and had to be towed. The toyota dealership was clueless and took couple days to.figure out that the fuel pump blew up, while the car was in motion. They replaced the fuel and the car worked fine. It is likely that the current problem…

Bought this car used just over a month ago. Made a 1 hour trip yesterday with our 2 children. Sudden unexpected acceleration caused me to almost wreck twice as i was entering the city we were visiting. One would've been serious due to location. Both times occurred when i was decelerating to go around sharp turns by letting off the gas, but not using break. Prior to entering town, the cruise had been set, but was…

Rodents have discovered the soy compound used to insulate the wires. My daughter has had to replace wiring twice in the last month. The damage to the wiring results in engine and transmission issues including stalling. This is as dangerous as the issues affecting gm cobalts. *tr

Have worked with a local toyota dealer past ten months regarding the following issue: when coming to a stop sign or stop light then you accelerate the car then loses power for 4 seconds. Met with the toyota field technical specialist recently who had me drive. We couldn't duplicate the issue. However, he noticed i placed my left foot on the brake once. He had me look down at my foot and said that was the problem.…

This complaint is similar to complaint #10545567. The camry experiences spurious or intermittent acceleration hesitation and sometimes stalls when acceleration is needed. This is a potentially dangerous condition especially in when entering a highway or accelerating onto an interstate. Dealer has been notified several times about the situation, but because this is an intermittent condition, the dealer doesn't see it…

When easing out from a near stop and apply the gas the car stalls. It doesn't matter how much gas you give it, the car just stalls. You have to let up on the gas pedal and it tries to catch up with greater speed than you need. I have taken this problem to 2 toyota dealers several times since the first problem and they have not corrected the problem. The first time the dealer rep said it was suppose to do this. The…

The car is becoming undriveable. I took it to the dealership to get checked out, and they said there's nothing wrong with it. On their report they stated "the vehicle's operating as designed." since i bought this car it's been performing progressively worse. Every time i drive the car it seems to lose power. The ride is choppy, burdened, and labored. The entire car seems to be struggling with itself. I get into the…

In september 2012 i experienced a flattening out of the acceleration. Turning at a very low speed the car did not accelerate (this still occurs off and on). It is quite dangerous because there is no warning to the car behind me that i am no longer moving forward. It is like a stalling out which last around 5 seconds or so. Very unnerving but only seems to happen when i am going slow and turning the wheel. *tr

I brought it in to the dealer almost immediately and they found nothing. It happened several times after that and i brought it to the dealer again and nothing was found. I brought it to the dealer only last week for an oil change and 10000 mile check up(only have 3700miles on car) and…

On acceleration the gas cuts out, lasting around 3 to 10 seconds. I cannot duplicate this condition, it just happens sporadically. It is very dangerous because the car behind me has no indication that i am in limbo and could easily rear-end me. This usually occurs when i am turning at a low speed, but has happened when driving straight. *tr
