Description of the problem	On this day i had driven 100 miles on the highway. I proceeded to exit a ramp and my 2006 solara convertible lost drive. I was unable to park and the car wouldn't go although the vehicle was still in drive. I tried reverse and i was able to park by backing up. After several tries of driving without being able to get into drive i made several phone calls to aaa. After 30 minutes of not using the car it started up and drive was working. I proceeded on my trip. Afterthe car sat for several hours i began the trip home. I made it as far as the exit where the hotel was i was to stay at that night. Upon exiting the ramp i again had no drive. It was dark and no lights at the exit. I was frightened i would be hit from behind so i was able to backup onto a grassy area next to the exit ramp. Again i had no drive. I waited for 20 minutes hoping this was again a temporary problem. I tried again and the car began to move slowly with the engine sounding like i was going very fast. The car was barely moving and i now smelled something burning. I called aaa and had the car towed to falmouth toyota. (100 miles but close to home.) the car has been there a week and they can't find anything wrong with it. I am told they have tested all that they can. A mechanic has driven it several times with the diagnositc equipment on it but nothing has gone wrong. I pleaded with them to drive it in excess of 60 miles to try and duplicate the problem but they state they can't justify that. I'm told i must take back the car without knowing if this will happen again. Is this the reliability i should expect from toyota?
