My Camry has received two professional transmission services as per the manufacturer recommendation, within suggested timeframes as it is now 176k. The transmission ( surely this is not something new to hear) has failed. No prior sign or code. This vehicle died while driving on the highway! it stopped automatically shifting and would not accelerate. There have been other owners of this same car, year ect. That have lost transmission while driving!!!! want to get to the bottom? how many 18camrys make it to 300k or even 200k without a new transmission. Most die 65k !! lemon come on. Toyota mechanics, youtube, Toyota nation, dealerships, it is a well known fact that the 18 Camrys being that they cheaper out on so many parts, and added this new transmission, they’re known for failure! young. This company is screwing peopel. With jobs, kids, and now you’ve got to fork out minimum 6k and wait for 3-6 months to have car back??? how many people have been homeless due to this? ?? I had a job and a home, boss wouldn’t let me work from home! I’ve rode a bicycle to work, in florida to the next town over. Even with a loan, I’m out a car for months, so how many loans offer a no pay for 6 months? I’m hungry. Most people trans died in the 65k this is a rip off. The car can give back its safety award. The brakes gave out on me. The oil pan the brakes the trans the fuel pump. And the notorious front bumpers. They come un snapped in every newer body style carolla and Camry. Wing out beside fenders. And collision syste I’ve had people beside me in the same model car take a pic of my quick release snaps that I used to safely secure the bumper. This car is a lemon! mine is a unicorn with trans failure despite the maintained by a local aamco owner (transmission specialist) trans dying at 178k “wow that is impressive!” are you guys going to do anything? or has Toyota paid you off? no one gives a heck about consumers. We’re the modern day native americans .

While operating the vehicle, the automatic transmission failed to respond and jerked the vehicle at low speed upshifting from 1st to 2nd gear initially. After engaging 2nd gear, vehicle demonstrated loss of power while in motion until system provide engine light warning and other safety messages which had been disabled such as automatic braking system disabled as well as lane departure warning disabled. The vehicle began to limit drivable speed during highway operation which prompt exiting to service or frontage road at which point when the vehicle came to a complete stop, the vehicle would not advance or reverse and was towed from road to a safe location.

Transmission gave out with no lights and prior indications that there was a problem with it. On my way to work one morning my car stopped at a light at a busy intersection and then would not accelerate any further. I got all of my regular maintenance done and never had any accidents or issues other than this. My car only has 115k miles and is a 2018. I just paid this car off last year after buying it brand new.

There is a progressing whine sound when accelerating, it's a common sign of a transmission failing, others online have described the same issue and they had to replace their transmission, I'd be worried about my transmission failing mid drive and not being able to control the car.

Driving normal about 60mph. Car seems to go into limp mode with no acceleration response. Toyota confirms the clutch actuator is failing causing the vehicle to not have acceleration pressure and that the transmission needs to be replaced. There are no indications or lights showing a malfunction and acceleration from a stop can be unresponsive. Turning the vehicle off and on will temporarily reset the car without issue. This problem is intermittent but increasing in frequency.

Replaced car battery , vehicle constantly jerking pressing the accelerator. It took almost a month to stop with harsh jerking . Going on 3 months and still transmission slips or jerks when entering traffic or accelerating sporadically. Feels as car either loses power or can’t find gears while driving. Very dangerous.

Constant transmission issues.

Transmission suddenly began slipping, whining leading to a loss of power, which resulted in being stuck in a busy intersection.

The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while the transmission was shifting from 1st to 2nd gear and while accelerating from a stop, the vehicle jolted forward. The vehicle was taken to the dealer however, the dealer was unable to duplicate the failure. The contact stated the failure recurred one and a half week later while driving at an undisclosed speed and engine revved but the vehicle failed to respond. The contact had to maintain the rpm between 3,000 and 4,000 while driving uphill. The contact stated that the failure persisted, and the vehicle became inoperable. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and was diagnosed with transmission failure. The vehicle was not repaired due to the part being on backorder. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case. The failure mileage was 66,000.

I purchased my Toyota Camry in 2020 with only 4995 miles on it from the Toyota dealership. It is now 2024 and I only have 69,000 miles on it and the transmission is bad. I took it Toyota and they revealed it is an inner transmission issue and I would need a completely new transmission. This is insane considering that Toyota makes money off of saying they have reliable cars. I have gotten maintenance on my car and mainly only drive it to and from work. There was no warning signs on my dashboard about this and I drive with my 3 year old son in it. I started to hear a winding noise in car when accelerating and occasionally some kick back. Now car is stuck at a dealership with no idea of when a new transmission will be placed because Toyota said it is on a nationwide back order. After doing some research I found that many other customers owning a 2019 Toyota are having the same problem with there transmissions clocking out between 65,000-85,000 miles. My safety was put at risk along with my child’s because there was not even a light on the dashboard that showed something was wrong with the car.

The sealed transmission went completely out and we were on the side of a road in a driveway, so we had to try to cross the road on a hill. Fortunately we did not get hit. The vehicle is in another state as I was travelling for christmas eve celebration with my family. The car is at a Toyota dealership in roanoke , virginia. We did not get any warning until it completely lost all power and then the engine light came on. We had no idea anything was wrong with the transmission until it started making a loud noise after stopping at a grocery store and we started moving again. The car only has 81,00 miles and certainly should not have gone out that early. I do not have an extended warranty, so this is costing me a little over $9,000. 00. This model does have a sealed transmission, so there's no way to check the fluid.

I am writing to express a serious safety concern regarding my Toyota Camry. Recently, my daugther experienced a potentially dangerous situation while driving to a doctor’s appointment that I believe requires immediate attention. She was traveling on the highway in the leftmost lane, the fastest lane, when the car unexpectedly began to slow down. Despite pressing the gas pedal to accelerate, the engine revved louder, but the car did not respond or gain any speed. It became clear that the vehicle was losing power, and she was unable to maintain speed, causing a significant slowdown in traffic. As the situation became more alarming, she turned on the emergency lights to alert surrounding drivers, realizing that the car was decelerating despite her efforts. At this point, she was stuck in a very precarious position, with traffic merging from another highway to her right, and she remained in the middle of the road in one of the busiest and fastest lanes. Fortunately, after 15 minutes or so of this uncertainty, a kind passenger helped to push the car to the shoulder, allowing her to get out of the flow of traffic and avoid a potential accident or worse. What is most concerning about this incident is that there were no warning signs or indicators on the dashboard. No engine lights, warning signals, or unusual noises alerted her to any potential issue before or during the power loss. The car simply stopped responding while the engine continued to rev, leaving her stranded in a highly dangerous situation without any forewarning. I rely on my Toyota Camry for daily transportation, and this sudden and unexpected malfunction has shaken both our confidences and others around me about the vehicle’s safety. I request a thorough investigation into this incident to determine the cause of the malfunction, as well as any necessary repairs or inspections to ensure that this does not happen again. Toyota dealer has advised me there is no recall and there is nothing they can do.

I have a 2018 Toyota Camry se in which the transmission has completely failed. If I drive the car without having it completely replaced it hesitates when trying to excel. I was almost hit several times while trying to pull out into traffic where the car wouldn't shift and accelerate when it needed to move quickly.

The vehicle has a shudder problem related to the transmission. This problem was fixed back in 2015 and has persisted since I have owned the vehicle. During acceleration of 1200-1800 rpms, the transmission begins to shudder. I have asked the dealership to fix it due to the current recall but have stated that the transmission was already fixed.

Car would shutter when shifting. Toyota called this an "extended warranty" issue. I believe it should have been called a "recall". I did not recieve any notification of Toyota's extended warranty notice.

When car is shifting, it shutters. I was informed it was my torque converter. Toyota called this an "extended warranty" issue. I believe it should have been called a "recall". I did not recieve any notification of Toyota's extended warranty notice.

Check engine light came on one day. Ignored it. The next morning was driving on the highway and noticed the car had some trouble accelerating, tried to switch lanes at ~40-60mph (don’t remember) and the car started to kick back and almost felt like it was coming to a complete stop. I was so scared the car would just stop in the middle of the highway because I couldn’t even change lanes without it kicking back/not accelerating enough. There was not a lot of traffic around so I was lucky enough to get the car into the far right lane and coast. An alert came on, almost immediately after, on the dash and was told to pull over due to the engine overheating. Looked at the heat gauge and noticed it was all the way to hot. Got off the highway and tried to take local roads back home, the car started to kick back almost like it was about to come to a complete stop but was able to keep going local roads, didn’t pull over (was close enough to home that I didn’t want to leave my car on the side of the road if it didn’t start back up again) and the engine eventually cooled down. Got back home to put in more coolant (there was zero coolant, never noticed a leak) car ran fine for about a week, then check engine light came back on. Took it to autozone for a scan, code came out as p26cb. Took it to Toyota for diagnostic and repair, the code they found was p26cb71. Was told by the service advisor that the car should’ve turned off automatically and I shouldn’t have been able to drive it so far with the engine over heating like that. Also was told that the engine was very close to “blowing up”.

I am writing this to complain about the 8 speed automatic transmission! my car’s tranny went out at 68,500 miles 4 months ago. To this day, it’s still drivable but I worry any day now it will give out. I have been quoted staggering prices from 5. 5k to 9k! no warning lights which was also surprising. The problem first started when I heard gear grinding sound coming front underneath the front end when decelerating. I am very upset as these seems like an issue where thousands of customers are experiencing transmission issues ranging from jerks to slipping. And the worst part is Toyota won’t do anything about it! it’s clear as day that there should be a recall for the first year models for the 8 speed automatic transmission.

Abs light flashes randomly at me when driving and at a stop car shakes aggressively.

The transmission on this vehicle has a delayed shifting between 1st and 2nd gears when accelerating. I am concerned that there is a transmission issue happening.

Transmission when shifting at lower gears.

The car is speed surging and then loosing power. It will get up to 35 mph and then no power, I can get it up to 50 mph it will jerk, surge and loose power.

Transmission has not been right since purchase, complaints were left unaddressed until the complete failure of the transmission, of course out of warranty. This is a safety hazard, as well as Toyota offering no type of assistance.
