2006 Toyota CAMRY Power Train Automatic Transmission Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	741158
Internal NHTSA #	10285795
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	CAMRY
Model Year	2006
File date	01/09/09
Component	POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	4 cylinder automatic transmission console shifter mechanism is supposed to lock when placed into park. Safety lock should not release shifter from park unless the key is in the ignition, and the brake pedal and release button on shifter are both depressed. On my car, the shifter will come out of park just by moving it, whether or not the key is in the ignition, and whether or not the brake pedal and/or the release button are depressed. I pulled off the trim cover over the mechanism and found that the white plastic part that rotates over the lock pin had over-rotated so that the lock pin missed its entry into the slot. I returned it to its original position and the mechanism appeared to function properly again. However, about a week later the problem has re-occurred so i think it will require new parts. Obvious safety issue: transmission can be knocked out of park at any time.
