    While on the street as i was backing my car into a parking space adjacent to the street curb the car suddenly accelerated in reverse at high speed, crashing over the curb and sidewalk, rear end first. My stepping on the brakes in an attempt to stop the car was unsuccessful; the car did not come to a stop until it crashed into an iron fence which bordered the yard causing damage to the fence and the car. A similar…

    Often during acceleration, my car seems to sputter or misfire. When taking off there seems to be, as the only way i can describe it, an air bubble in the fuel line. Kinda like fuel isn't constantly being fed to the engine. There are gaps. While driving at a constant speed, this does not happen. Also, sometimes when accelerating from a stopped position, my car accelerates slowly and then all of a sudden, takes off as…

    I previously made a complaint about my 2015 toyota camry. I attached a copy of my complaint to this complaint. I am now experiencing loss of power while i drive from the torque converter shudder issue i am having. Car is shaking rather than a vibration now between speed of 40mph to 50mph. This is unsafe

    When car was completely stopped at a stop sign, car made a loud noise and started shaking. Then car accelerated on its own. Brakes locked. Car wouldn't stop in neutral or in park gear. It caused an accident by rear ending the car in front of me. Car accelerated very quickly and steering wheel locked as well. Passenger in car heard the noise too. The car accelerated abruptly on its own.

    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…

    While being driven down the road (with the driver's foot on the accelerator pedal) the vehicle intermittently loses acceleration (begins to decelerate) despite continued pressure on the accelerator pedal. The driver must release their foot from the pedal and then press it again. The car accelerates (sometimes with hesitancy) and sometimes the car will jerk as the engine revs. This has happened over 20 times. No…

The contact stated that the brake pedal was depressed to the floorboard as the rpms revved excessively. The contact stated that the front passenger side wheel struck the curb. The contact stated that the accelerator pedal was not depressed when the engine revved up for…
