Attn: defects investigations office. 2007 Toyota Camry with 38721 miles that is owned by and used as an undercover police vehicle accelerated without explanation on March 10, 2010. The operator, who is a sworn officer, advises that his foot was not on the accelerator and the vehicle increased in speed and engine revolutions without explanation. The event occurred over the course of approximately 1/10th of a mile reaching speeds just over 60 mph. The acceleration event corrected itself. There was no injury or crash associated with the event. The vehicle in question had completed a Toyota recall service program # ssc90l to address acceleration issues with this model vehicle on March 2, 2010. The vehicle was returned to the henrico police on March 3, 2010. The extremely short period of time between the recall service and this sudden unanticipated acceleration event gives reason to believe that the recall service was not effective in correcting the acceleration issues associated with Toyota brand vehicles. The vehicle was parked shortly after the event and is currently secured by the henrico police. The vehicle has not been driven or examined by any parties since the occurrence of this acceleration event. In light of the fact that this vehicle had recently completed the required acceleration recall service and has been secured since the date of the occurrence, this agency believes that this vehicle is an ideal candidate for examination by the office of defects investigations to determine the origin of this unanticipated acceleration event. The vehicle in question is outfitted with Toyota brand floor mats which are tethered to anchors in the floorboard of the vehicle.

Toyota Camry 2007 - sudden acceleration in reverse. When I am backing up the car at slow speeds (such as backing out of my garage) the car often suddenly accelerates backwards. When backing up out of my garage I must keep my foot on the brake at all times and be ready to step hard on the brake to stop the sudden backwards acceleration. When driving forward, the engine often hesitates for several seconds when I step on the gas. This often happens when I am rapidly accelerating to enter a freeway. This is a dangerous situation as I need the car to accelerate to enter fast moving traffic but I cannot count on the engine to rapidly speed up. After several seconds of hesitation, the car then accelerates too rapidly. My Toyota dealer claims to have fixed the rapid acceleration when driving backwards, but the problem was not fixed. As for the acceleration hesitation, the Toyota dealer claimed that the problem I described did not exist.

2007 Camry xle v6, this is my second car (lemon law replaced first Camry at 300 miles new) and 4th transmission, all covered by Toyota. Last week all oil drained from vehicle while driving. . Oil spewed from underneath vehicle for miles. My girlfriend called me at work, asked me to check my car as she saw my trail of oil for 1/4 mile. . Took car to my mechanic, found a rubber hose, a clamp on each end about 6 inches long, the clamps and hose had to be replaced, because oil spewed out of this part. If my girlfriend hadn't called me, my engine would have seized. As when I checked it at work a puddle of oil was under vehicle, and the dip stick showed no oil in vehicle. What if I was on vacation or traveling out of state, my car engine would have been destroyed. Engine would have seized due to no oil in engine. Big problem. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

On April 22, 2009, an oil line part #15707-31030 ruptured on our 2007 Toyota Camry VIN very rapidly pumping oil from the engine and requiring immediate repair. Since April 2009, while investigating reimbursement for repair costs, several Toyota service representatives from local dealerships stated that Toyota has identified this model engine in avalon vehicles as having this same ruptured oil line defect as occurred on my vehicle. Since July 2009 while seeking reimbursement for engine repairs with Toyota customer service, I requested that this issue be pursued internal to identify this defect through technical bulletin or recall for Camry vehicles. On January 6, 2010, I spoke to miguel lopez, supervisor, Toyota customer experience, department wc10, Toyota motor sales, u. S. A. , reference this issue and he stated very clearly that "no action or follow-up" phone calls or other communication would be taken by his office to investigate this safety issue with Camry?s.

The us federal trade commission has determined in its 2006 & 2007 reports that the Toyota Camry was the highest listed vehicle to be arbitrated. The failure I encountered was that the vehicle failed to move or react when you applied the gas pedal, this is due to a serious gap in response time due to the Toyota "drive by wire" process, software flash updates per the TSB-ecm are not solving the problem, which led to my accident, this problem may have the potential for causing serious injury or death as a result of not being able to accelerate out of harms way. I encourage Toyota Camry owners to return their vehicles per their states respective lemon laws or the federal magnuson-moss act. 2006 Toyota has the highest complaint rating, 286 complaints, totaling 83. 9% of the complaints.

We have a 2007 Camry xle and the car surges when the cruise control is on and going up a hill. If the cruise is set for 67mph the car has a about 2300 rpm. Going up a moderate hill, the car downshifts and goes to 3400 rpm. It then surges to 4700 rpm which puts the drivers head into the head rest. The issue has been going on since we bought the car in may of 2007. We called our local dealer(topsham, maine lee Toyota), and they said it was what the computer was programmed to do. I asked again the 1st time I had it in for service and received the same response. It does only happen with the cruise control on, so we have learned to shut off the cruise control going up any hills. We have a 2nd issue with our 2007 Camry which Toyota refuses to fix. If the rear defrost is turned on while the radio is on, the radio goes dead. The radio antenna and defrost wires are in the same window, and one is shorting out the other. I was told that since no fire occurs to turn off the radio while the rear defrost is on. I have read many similar issues on the internet and told Toyota such.

Throttle and transmission hesitation when starting out from stop, and when attempting to increase speed, hazard avoidance, followed by speed overshoot. Cruise control over reacted to slight grade increase, such as an overpass, by down shifting the transmission 1 to 2 gears and accelerating past set speed by 7 to 10 mph. Car will slow to set speed and repeat the down shifting and acceleration until the cruise control was turned off or the road was leveled. During long up hill driving the cruise control has to be turned off completely as it presented a great possibility of causing an accident. The dealer maintaied s that the engine, transmission, and cruise control operated normally.

I have a 2007 Camry xle with 13,000 miles. From the first day I purchased the car, it has had a severe hesitation when attempting to accelerate both from a stop and at highway speeds (passing, merging into traffic). In addition, the automatic transmission seems to slip between 2nd and 3rd gear (approximately 20 to 25 mph) before it locks into gear and begins to accelerate. This is most noticeable when the engine is cold. I told the Toyota service department about the problems at my last oil change. They hooked it up to the computer and test drove and were not able to replicate the transmission slippage problem. I was also told that the acceleration delay was due to the computer needing to communicate with the engine, and this was a normal delay and that I would "just have to get used to it". On several occasions this delay in acceleration has almost caused me to be in an accident.

Complete loss of acceleration (up to 5 seconds or so) while making turns after having either slowed down, or completely stopped. Two of those times have almost resulted in accidents from oncoming vehicles. Complaint made at a Toyota dealership. They claim no recall information, but have indicated that it wasn't the first time they've heard of it. No solution given other than the 800# to call Toyota directly to make a complaint. Nice.

2007 Toyota Camry: vehicle fails to accelerate from a stop or at low speeds creating a potentially unsafe situation. Toyota has been notified of this issue and has attempted to resolve it. Each attempt resulted in an "unable to duplicate". A TSB has been performed on the vehicle and this has not corrected to issue. This is a safety hazard! this very same problem can be found on several message forums. Someone is going to get hurt or killed if this is not corrected immediately. Please look into this ASAP.

I have a problem with my 2007 Camry accelerating from a stopped or "low speed" position. I also have had to have the air conditioner condenser replaced due to a rock coming through the grill of the car and "puncturing the condenser. I took the car to a Toyota dealer in slidell, la as I was out of town. The dealer replaced the condenser for $625. 00 at my expense. I was told there were no "screens" or any type of materials that could keep this from occurring again. There is however a TSB for the same thing on the 2007 corolla. I feel that Toyota has a flaw in the grill of the 2007 Camry and it should be remedied. On the issue of acceleration, I live in a congested traffic area in FL and do not feel that I can safely "pull out" into traffic unless I have a great deal of clearance. I feel that this is a severe safety issue that needs to be addressed by Toyota. I am an avid fan of Toyota products. This is my 3rd Camry and I owned a scion tc as well so this is not about downing a Toyota product. I believe in Toyota. I just think now is the time to recognize a problem and remedy that for the consumer. I would hate for someone to get killed before they address this issue.
