It seems that the transmission is not working right. . . The car can't decide when to accelerate and keeps jumping through. . . This happens from a stop or while you're driving. . I tried to accelerate and car was "deciding" to move forward or not. . . It can happen in motion, stationary, turning. . . . I don't feel safe at all driving my 7 months 2018 Toyota Camry. . . . Dealer solution=none. . . They just say the computer is not showing anything while I have to be worried about the car. . .
This happened to the vehicle repeatedly and under 1000 miles on the odometer. Upon acceleration the car hesitates and after a few seconds if will finally go with a jerking to the passengers. It also has a problem accelerating on the highway, it seems to lack the power to pass anyone when in traffic. At approximately 75 miles per hour the car began to shake also. When moving into different gears the car would also feel as if it were jerking into gears. Seems to be worse on cold starts but was definitely still a problem after driving and having time to warm up.
When the vehicle is in motion, and the radar speed control is set on, and a leading vehicle is engaged by the radar speed control, if the leading vehicle turns off the road to the right the radar speed control suddenly disengages and the vehicle brakes. This is a serious safety concern with the possibility of being rear-ended when there are following vehicles. Happens under all road conditions and in all weather.
4-cylinder xse has significant acceleration delay after depressing the pedal; this is especially apparent when accelerating from a rolling stop at approximately 15-25 mph. Occasionally, the gear will also shift abruptly when accelerating from 15-25 mph, causing the car to lurch forward suddenly. This is dangerous; if there is a car in front of you, there is a high chance of causing a rear end accident.
"takata recall" . I bought brand new Toyota Camry se 2018 from the Toyota dealer for taxi in new york city. I drive in new york city and sometime go to out of town up to 150 miles. On my first 10000 miles maintenance , I told the dealer that when I drive, car jerking/breaking the speed or say hesitation after drive few miles. I feel suddenly the speed start is jerking/breaking the speed for few seconds and then come back in regular speed. Even my leg is at the accelerate continues. On my complaint, the dealer technic drove the car and he reported that at present time he did not find any problem. I think, he lied. I did reported to Toyota and they open the case. They going to check on my next maintenance. Because of jerking/breaking or say hesitation, I feel might car suddenly stop in highway or any where. I drove over 1500 different cars in last over 33 years in my life and never see this kind of problem in past. I do see Toyota Camry 2018 have lot of new feature and use new technique but somehow this jerking/breaking or say hesitations during driving in any speed not good. Need to investigate and found why this happened.
The car has acceleration/speed problems. It takes too long to accelerate when changing lanes, passing other vehicle, or entering freeway. This issue is going on all and every time I drive it. I purchased the car one month ago. This is my 5th Camry and I never had this problem. Car is unsafe and im scared to drive. Toyota, do something before someone dies!!!!!!!!!!. I almost got rear-ended couple of times.
Tl-the contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving approximately 25 mph, the vehicle started to shift gears very hard. Then came to a complete stop, when the gas pedal was depressed, the vehicle did not accelerate, then few seconds later it surged forward. The contact also stated that the failure occurred everyday since the vehicle was purchased three months ago. The vehicle was taken to the dealer daytona Toyota 451 n nova road daytona beach florida 32114 twice and they could not replicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 2,000. Bp.
Transmission is feeling very jerky after 5000 miles. Holding on to low gears way too long. I'm doing 40 mph and the rpm is over 3500. The transmission seems to keep missing gears. Constantly downshifting. Mileage has surprisingly gone down. Even on the highway when im doing 65+ its struggling to find gears and keeps downshifting.
The 2018 Toyota Camry is having a problem shifting and allowing the car to increase speed. The car constantly jerks when you try to move and sometimes when you're sitting it still jerks. It's like the transmission is missing a shift or something.
Transmission fails to shift quickly from starting, slow moving or trying to accelerate quickly when on highway while merging or changing lanes.
I purchased my Toyota 2018 Camry se with 4 miles on it. Almost immediately I noticed that the car has major problems accelerating. While resuming driving ,from a stop sign or red light and merging on to a highway, when I press the gas pedal the car has a major delay in acceleration. It makes a loud revving noise like a sports car when I put my foot on the gas, and the car does not take off when pressing the gas pedal . It is a major delay . Its very slow, and you barely move while the car is making a tremendous and embarrassing amount of loud noise. In order to try and avoid being hit by oncoming traffic, I press the gas pedal to the floor, and at this time I don't know what will happen. Its totally random . I could take off out of sync with pressing the gas too quickly , or barely move at all. This is hazardous. I have complained to the service department twice at the Toyota dealership, that I purchased my car with no resolution. The dealership said both times, that they test drove my car and said nothing was wrong with the car. Please do a recall on this car for our own safety.
The car keeps jumping forward, it can't decide when it wants to shift up. When starting from a stop, or driving and trying to accelerate, the car takes over 5 seconds to really �take� and realize you are pushing on the gas. All it does is rev, a lot.
The car has acceleration/speed problems. The car has only 200 miles, took it in te highway and takes too long to reach highway speed. It rarely reaches and stays at lower speed. Like others it seems this Camry will have a lot rear-end accidents due to the lack of speed performance. I feel scare to drive this car, too difficult to change lanes, too difficult to keep up with traffic. If cars are approaching at highway speed and you are changing lines you more than likely will end up rear- end. It took me two and a half hours to complete a 1 hour trip due to lack of speed, car not responding and fear of getting rear-end by other cars who were hurning because car wouldn't speed up. Car is too unsafe. I don't know what happened to Toyota. Worst car ever.
I have a 2018 Toyota Camry and on my first week after buying it, I noticed that there's a major acceleration delay that I couldn't bear anymore. It's making a weird sound and is definitely something noticeable. Toyota seriously needs to take care of this as this may cause accidents especially on merging on the freeway. I tried to take it to 2 different Toyota service centers and both just told me that my car was driving fine. I looked up some complaints for this car online and it seems like a lot of people are actually complaining about this same as with 2019 models. I hope Toyota will fix this because it's making us consumers very frustrated.
When the car in the low speed around 20 miles/hour and the engine around 2000rpm, the transmission is wired trying to find specified gear, make the car speed increased and decreased, it like jerk the car. Another problem is when you trying to speed up catch up cars speed from lower speed on highway, press the gas pedal, the car just like thinking the life philosophy the rpm reach 4000 the car suddenly speed up.
Tl the contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. While driving approximately 5 mph, the vehicle surged forward and accelerated independently without depressing the accelerator pedal. The vehicle then decelerated and the contact depressed the brake pedal to bring the vehicle to a complete stop. In addition, the vehicle stalled as the motor revved. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to Toyota of grand rapids (2555 28th st se, grand rapids, mi 49512, (877) 703-5930) where it was diagnosed that a new software program update was needed. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and did not assist. The approximate failure mileage was 275.
I've had this vehicle for about 4 months now. The first month I noticed there is something wrong with the way this new vehicle accelerates. When stopped and starting movement again the vehicle suddenly jerks and does not speed up right away. The jerking part is my main safety concern. I have previously owned other Toyota models and no other model has done this. I'm afraid someone will rear end my due to the sudden jerking and then delayed response of the vehicle to accelerate. It is especially distressing at intersection lights, off ramps, and stop signs. Anywhere required to stop or slow movement and then need to accelerate even at a moderate pace. Something just is not right.
Vehicle gas throttle response would hesitate would be a lag of few seconds for vehicle to pick up speed slow throttle response, also I totaled my vehicle due brakes malfunction also vehicle brake assyst did not assyst me in any way or prevented me from accident I was travling 35 to 55mph in traffic stop and go slow lane.
When I'm taking off it takes a fews seconds before it catches speed. Even if I'm pushing down pretty much on the way down on the gas pedal it takes a while before it catches speed. Cars behind me start passing me. Also, my biggest concern is when I'm merging into the freeway and I'm trying to catch speed it wont speed up until a few seconds so I get never that I'm too far in and a car behind me might hit me because it doesn't catch speed right away and once it catches speed it goes extremely fast because I'm pushing so far down on the pedal because it doesn't catch it right away. I've gotten scared of few times. I really think something defected with this car. As much as I love the body of the car, the speed control is a real problem. I really hope someone looks into this. It's when I'm stopped and on the freeway.
I tried to cross a busy highway and the car hesitated for 2 or 3 seconds before beginning a very sluggish acceleration that put me in danger of being hit by oncoming high speed traffic. It has done this twice, and the second time I pushed the accelerator to the floor for several seconds with no response. In both instances the car was going about 3 mph when I attempted to accelerate. The internet is loaded with hundreds of complaints about this problem.
