My 2013 toyota camry will not accelerate when i first try to drive the car in the morning or in the evening when i get off work. It has also stopped accelerating as i was trying to make a left turn onto a busy street. Thankfully, the car behind me did not run into me. It seems as though the car has to 'warm up' before it will drive normally. I have had this car for 5 years and it only started doing this in september…

My car shudders from 20-45 miles an hour have taken in to a car shop and they say it is the torque converter, or transmission in this car. My car is only 5 years old and should not be having these problems. After it gets up to 50 it starts to run smoothly. The vehicle is in motion. I see from complaints that a lot of people have had their torque converters replaced by the dealership.

This vehicle hesitates for 4 seconds when transmission switches gears. Car was taken back to dealer and after 2 software updates and a new torque converter they said the car couldnt be fixed. This car is dangerous and will most definitely cause an accident rear end collision.

Purchased car in april with 14,000 miles. Vehicle hesitates at random times - this is especially dangerous when making a left turn at a busy intersection. One time i was the 3rd car back at busy intersection with no left turn arrow. When it was my turn to go the car would barely move. I was fortunate that all the cars in the other direction waited until i cleared the intersection before going. When the traffic light…

I was drove the car for shopping 25 miles away from home at 9:00 am. At 11:50 am, on the way back, the back shook slightly and made small noises that were unfamiliar. I checked to see if the shift gear was set correctly and windows were closed, which they were. There was no unusual blinking of driver panel light indicating any type of warning. When i arrived at the drive way at 12:30pm, turning into the front of the…
