I have a new 2010 Camry. Toyota has a recall also on the floor mat/gas pedal issue. Toyota took a grinder to my gas pedal as their fix per corporate instructions Toyota should do is give it's customers new gas pedals not grind down their current gas pedals. It appears that Toyota just is trying to save money.

I had called Toyota at performance Toyota and told them that out 2010 Toyota Camry was making a strange noise when accelerating. They said they would come to my home and pick up the car on Monday the 8th. No one came. I called oksana my saleslady on the 10th and left her a message on her machine and she did not call back. . On the 14th we we're going to church and as we we're pulling into the parking space my husband had his foot on the brake but the car accelerated over 2 concrete parking curbs and ended up in the upper parking lot about 10 feet up the hill. My husband had to keep both feet on the brake but the engine still kept on speeding until it got caught on both concrete barriers. 2 people in the parking lot witnessed this.

Toyota Camry xle 2010 with 11500 miles is accelerating on its own and it is taking noticeable longer to slow down. Check engine light is on and (esc) light is on. However this is not the first time this has happened. The car was taken to the dealer. The first time they said there was debris in the engine however it took them over 30 days to fix it and they did not seem confident they fixed the problem. It is not a consistent problem as it happens unexpectedly. This is not caused by a driver mistake as it can be clearly seen when foot is off the brake and car is in drive that the rpm is higher. Sometimes the opposite happens and the car acts as if it is going to stall and shakes very hard. The approx incident date is the last time it was noticed and the car is no longer being driven. * I wonder if there is a possibility that my cell phone that causes interference with my tv and radio causes an interference with the etc system?.

We bought our 2010 Toyota Camry on 12/31/2010 unaware of the recall that was about to hit. When we started hearing about the recalls, we got on the Toyota web site. Our vehicle that we purchased 2 weeks prior was now on a recall list. When we contacted our local dealer, they said to do nothing, Toyota was sending out a letter the following week with all recall cars listed and when to bring them in. We never received a letter from the company nor the local dealership. When calling to demand this issue be fixed on Monday 3/8/2010, they took my name and number, said someone would call me back, and never did. My car has depreciated, I can't even get out from under it and am scared to death to drive it. I am appalled at the lack of response or concern from this company. I want out of this contract !!!.

This is about the Toyota recall. I own a 2010 Camry. I just had the recall done last week. Since the work has been done I have had nothing but problems with the idle and the engine. Before the recall was done I never had a problem. Something needs to be done before more people are killed.

Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6) [xxx] 1) at red light, turned green, pressed down on accelerator, car sped backwards instead of ahead. Braked, stopped, confirmed car in drive gear 2) gas pedal cut as part of recall, foot has gotten caught under pedal 3 times.

Driving my 2010 Toyota Camry on busy secondary highway. Driving 20-25 mph when vehicle engine suddenly "roared"- like the gas pedal had been pushed to the maximum. I put the brakes on hard. The car stopped, and the vehicle behind me rear-ended me.

Toyota Camry (rented from hertz ann arbor sheraton). Delayed response when removing foot form accelerator pedal. Vehicle maintains speed for a very noticeable 1 or 2 seconds. 100% repeatable while driving at highway speed. The vehicle actually remains under power even though the driver has removed the input command. I observed the same delay each time I removed my foot from the accelerator pedal. Even being aware of this situation I was caught off guard when a truck changed lanes in front of me. I removed my foot expecting to slow down only to realize that the vehicle continued at speed closing the gap between me and the truck while the truck decelerated. When I removed my foot from pedal and shift into neutral to remove the load, I witnessed the rpm will increase 400-1000 rpm depending on terrain and amount the throttle was depressed to maintain vehicle speed. This rpm spike is brief in duration (1 second or less). I repeated this an estimated 30 times under various grade conditions. (ohio turnpike, I-475, us 23 northbound michigan). The worst case being driving up a slight grade maintaining 2100 rpm. I fully removed my foot from the accelerator pedal, shifted into neutral ,and observed a blip to 3100 rpm.

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry. The contact was driving approximately 45 mph on a dry road surface. An increase of acceleration occurred without warning. The vehicle was able to slow down. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer and repaired. The identical failure continued after the service repair. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer on a separate occasion. However, there were no repairs performed to correct the problem. The manufacturer was notified and recommended that the vehicle be taken to the dealer for further inspection. The failure mileage was 6,000.

I have a Toyota 2010 Camry, bought July 2009, this car is not slow down properly, it always run for 2 to 5 seconds then I can feel it start to slow down,then take 5 more seconds drop about 2-3 mile, it compared with my other two cars, it is really show something wrong in this car. Then I heard Toyota announce the recall all 2010 - 2007 Camry for gas pedal problem, so I back to Toyota sunnyvale,CA dealer to do the recalled fixes. However, my Camry still has same problem like before. So I back to my dealer to compliant about it, there is service engineer did a test drive and wrote a report said it works as design. I told them my other two cars didn't happen like this way, all the car should be decelerated when foot is removed from the accelerator right way, Toyota engineer just don't feel 2010 Camry has anything wrong. But I don't feel this car is safe to drive like other cars. I think it could have potential trouble for driver safety. Please notify Toyota to fix this problem soon.

2010 Toyota Camry. Gas pedal is too sensitive; the car lurches forward when you place the slightest/lightest touch on the pedal. I brought the car to the Toyota dealer and was told that others are reporting the same problem, but this is "normal" for the 2010 and there is no known fix. The dealer said they would report it.

I have a new 2010 Camry with 2,000 miles on it. I read that Toyota "has agreed" to a brake over-ride on new vehicles - but mine is "only" to get the pedal fix. Don't let them pull the wool over your eyes. This new vehicle I'm driving "needs" the brake over-ride. Let's not let them get out of this fix. It will only lead to more law suits and lost lives. This needs to be pushed at all the upcoming hearings and they need to agree to the fix. Not "just" new productions. This car I have is a "new" 2010 with 2,000 miles. Yes, there was a crash, but not with mine "yet".

Car: 2010 Camry le. Twice since purchasing the car in November the car has accelerated on its own. When accelerating to pass, the gas pedal travels to the floor, when it was not pushed that far. Both times I reacted by quickly putting the car in neutral and the pedal immediately returned to its neutral position. No damage, no injuries in either event.

On February 2, 2010 I was entering my garage and slowly drove in, I then placed my foot on the brake to stop, I then opened the drivers side door slightly as I was about to place the vehicle in park a short revving of the engine began, right before I placed the shifter into park the vehicle jumped into reverse and began to accelerate backwards,causing damage to the drivers side door which flew open due to the reverse acceleration, the wall in my garage ,the garage railing , the side panel of the garage were all damaged as a result. I then slammed on the brakes and the parking brakes, placed the shifter in neutral and then turned off the engine, I then called the Toyota corporation and explained the event to them. Their process was slow and not considerate to my needs as a consumer. After several days and numerous phone calls Toyota finally responded and I was told that I was going to have to wait another 4 days for someone else from their regional department to get in touch with me. I finally decided to let my insurance company handle the vehicles damage because I only have one car. After a week in the shop I then took the vehicle a Toyota dealer for them to repair the recall issues. Toyota explained to me that they fixed the recall problems and returned the vehicle back to me.

I experienced a runaway acceleration while driving my 2010 Camry le v6 (made in japan). While leaving the parking lot of my work place I was trying to pull away from a stop sign and the engine revved out of control. As I tried to pull away from the stop sign the tires slipped because it had just snowed. I gave it a bit more gas to get over the snow when the car started to pull away from the stop sign the engine revved out of control. I pressed and held down on the brake, the car continued to pull forward, I put the car in neutral and the engine was at redline for about 10 more seconds then returned to normal. At no time did I floor the accelerator, it was not stuck. I stepped down on the gas just a bit to clear the snow patch and the engine just revved out of control. I am lucky this didn't happen in traffic, and I knew enough to hold down firm on the brake, or there could have been an accident.

I just bought a 2010 Toyota Camry and they did not tell me that there were 3 million in recalls on the vehicle. That is very dishonest. I also took my car to the service center and they said they did not know about the recall. That is lying. Toyota did not look at my floormats or accelerator. They did nothing to secure my safety or evaluate my floormat or accelerator when I went in there.

I have a Toyota Camry 2010, leased on August 23,2009. We started to notice an intermittent problem that has occurred since Jan. 2010, where the car surges forward. My daughter has been driving the car and it was not until I drove it that we discussed the problem. This March. She just thought it was her imagination. It is a slight set of surges. It does not appear to be any particular time of circumstances, it just does it. We took the car in to have the mats and gas pedal checked and were told everything was okay. This was February 4, 2010 and had the oil changed at the same time. This was before I drove the car and we compared notes. (we do not feel safe in the car) I want to turn in the car!! this is my first Toyota and will be my last.

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry. He received a recall letter and took the vehicle in for recall repairs (NHTSA campaign id number: 09v388000, vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal). Afterward, while traveling at speeds of 55 mph the vehicle began to make a loud revving noise and would start to jerk. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where they made unknown repairs. Within 24 hours, the vehicle continued to exhibit the exact same failure. The dealer was contacted where they refused additional repairs to the vehicle. The failure mileage was 1,000 and the current was 5,000.

The contact leased a 2010 Toyota Camry on December, 29 2009. The contact has not experienced the acceleration failure; however, she requested the dealer to purchase the vehicle back and they stated that they were not interested. The contact is concerned about the safety risk and has refused to drive the vehicle. She has also notified her state attorney general who informed her that they were unable to offer her any assistance. The contact also called the Toyota hotline several times and they did not allow her to file a complaint. The VIN was not available. There are no failures at this time.

The day after purchasing my 2010 Camry, the car seemed to ride funny. I felt uneasy but initially thought it may be that it was my first completely new car. This went on for the next few weeks, I. E. The car seeming to jerk or heave, regardless of the speed. I was worried that there was something wrong with the engine and then the lights on the aircondition/heating board stopped working so I thought it was an electrical problem instead. I took it in. The mechanic explained everything away, explained the 'electrical problem', and stated that the heaving feeling I was sensing was that the car was computerized and that it took time for the accelerator to catch up with the signal the computer was giving it, or something like that. He ran an engine check and everything was fine. On my service sheet he simply stated that I had complained about the accelerator hesitating (which I did not), but did not document that I brought the car in complaining that it had electrical problems. A week later there was the recall. When I later called about the recall and continued to complain about the accelerator problem, the serviceman ( a different one) told me that I would feel no change in the way the way the car drove so he would have someone ride with me to try to figure out what I was talking about. The day before taking the car in for the fix, the car slightly accelerated when I was trying to come to a stop. After the fix, a Toyota representative rode with me (I let him drive), but the car did appear to ride better after the fix. The car does still feel better than when I first bought it but seems to be gradually getting worse since the fix, e. G. The car occasionally slightly accelerates when I am coming to a stop.

I have a 2010 Toyota Camry. Abs light and vsc light illuminates insistently on dashboard when pressing on brake. This is happening for 4 months.

Vehicle purchase Nov 2009. 2010 Toyota le Camry. Noticed within first 200 miles that vehicle accelerated and down shifted during turns. Voiced compliant. No action. Recall announced, told had to wait for letter for repair. Brought vehicle back same problem. Then fixed. Vehicle at 1700 miles driving like stick shift car jumps as changing gears. May jump as breaking causing an incomplete timely stop. Currently at 2200 miles driving rough on road and shifting self as driving so power will immediately increase then decrease. Scared to drive new vehicle. Dealership treating me as crazy and that should wait for additional recalls before bringing vehicle in. This has all taken place before initial payment was even made. Very disappointed in quality.

My wife was driving our newly purchased Toyota Camry se when she notice that it was accelerating out control. When she tld me about it,I dismissed it as a result of her high heels and the cold temperatures of upstate NY. About a month later same happen to me and I ended up in a pole. Afew days later same problem occur. Just when I was going to blame the low temperatures. . Enter the massive recall of Toyota know defected product.

I purchased a new 2010 Toyota Camry in oct-2009 and I realized after 2-3 weeks that there is something wrong in there. The rpm goes high (and tries to stay there) when down-shifting even without the leg is off the gas paddle. While I understand that downshifting may increase rpm but then I feel like it wants to stay there by means of some un-intended acceleration. When I realized that there is something wrong, I just ignored the issue because I did not want to take the car to the dealer and let them mess it up further. I thought this is happening because it is a new car. After few miles driven, the issue will go away. But when I learned about the un-intended acceleration in January 2010, I realized that the issue is more serious and I should not ignore any more. I went to dealer but as I expected, they did not take it seriously and told me that the car runs as per design. I went for the recall too but it did not make any difference. Being an engineer, I myself have established few simple test cases where one can prove that there is definately something wrong in the car. And if the car runs as per design, then there is something wrong in the design itself. I knew in advance that taking the car to the dealership was not going to work. I purchased a new vehicle so that I can keep on driving it nicely for years to come but I neve expect it to be going to garage for such a serious issue in less than 3 months! I have not received any satisfactory answer/solution to my problem so far.

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry. When lightly applying pressure to the accelerator pedal at a stop light, the vehicle accelerated 40 mph past the intended speed. The failure occurred on three separate occasions. The vehicle has not been taken to the dealer, nor has the manufacturer been notified. The failure mileage was 920.

Since the time I bought my new 2010 Toyota Camry, I saw issues with the way the car transmission worked at speeds from 0-50mph. Starting from the first week of my using the car, I went to the dealership a total of 4 times, only to be sent back after a "test drive" saying nothing is wrong. In my own language, I had been explaining the issue which now looks exactly similar to the 'sticking gas pedal" recall recently informed by Toyota. My car was still accelerating while braking, or would start braking when my foot is off the accelerator. I also used to feel a jerk when the car moved between speeds of 0-50mph. I commute 70 miles daily to work and I have noticed this daily to the point that I have started ignoring out of deep frustration. The dealer test drives and causes embarrassment saying they cannot recreate my issue. I logged an incident with Toyota (091214-000053). It led to my fourth visit to the dealer with the same answer. Toyota's response from a case manager was that if they cannot recreate they will not do anything. I almost feel this is a hopeless case as I don't think neither Toyota nor the dealership were truly serious about assisting me. They could have at least informed me that there are some potential issues with their vehicles that they are working on. I reopened a new case (100130-000604). So far I have received no recall notice from Toyota. I don't think they are handling this the right way. I haven't had any major incidents, but I don't think I can wait for that to happen to get the attention of Toyota or its dealer. This is not a Smart way of solving an issue. I feel disappointed, angry and helpless.

The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry hybrid. The manufacturer was contacted shortly after purchasing the vehicle when it accelerated and lunged forward. The contact stated that the dealer told her that it was perfectly normal for hybrid vehicles. The contact stated that she had previously had the recall repair done for the accelerator pedal; however, she continued to experience the failure. The contact has driven hybrid vehicles before and they did not accelerate. The failure mileage was 15 and the current mileage was 4,000. Updated 06/03/bf the consumer stated the vehicle continues to surge and it has been in the repair shop numerous times. Updated 06/07/jb updated 11/11/10 the consumer stated there have been times when the vehicle jumped several inches while in reverse and the vehicle would jerk forward when in park and the gas engine would activate. Updated 111/17/10.

I am the owner of a 2010 Toyota Camry which has the defects now under investigation involving out-of-control acceleration of the car. This car presents a serious potential hazard to myself and to others and I will not continue to drive it. Toyota needs to be severely dealt with for putting the almighty dollar ahead of providing a safe car that their customers could trust - and for their deception in attempting to hide, cover up, dismiss the problems and not deal with legitimate complaints well before this time. Toyota's actions and lack of action has put millions of people at risk to the point of causing multiple deaths and injuries on our highways and roads. A once trusted automobile company has abandoned the principles they must adhere to in building an automobile - first and foremost, providing an automobile that is safe to drive. They have thus abandoned the customer, causing not only death but immense distress among millions of car owners who can no longer trust the car they purchased - at great expense - and now see its value sinking rapidly. My Camry has less than 1000 miles on it. I expect and deserve fair compensation for the trust and money that I put into this company for a car that is unsafe to drive. I want my money back! now.

I approached the main intersection in my 2010 Camry from a side street at a stop sign. When I put my foot on the brake the car continued to accelerate into the main intersection. I collided with an oncoming car causing approx. $3400. There were no injuries and the damage to the front of the car was repaired. Only the body damage was corrected on the vehicle. No internal repairs have been made as of yet.
