| Description of the problem | I own a 2007 toyota camry se and for the past several months i have been having issues with my car not starting if it is on unlevel ground. I assumed it was something in the gas i had recently purchased but that does not seem to be the case. If my car is parked on unlevel ground, i now have to place the gear in neutral and push the car to a level ground in order for it to start. I recently had it checked out by a mechanic and he told me that it had to be a sensor in the fuel pump causing my car to respond in one of two ways: 1) there was no gas in the tank or 2) the antitheft sensor was on and the car doesn't start if the vehicle has been stolen. I had a full tank at the time so option 1 was definitely not the case. This issue is continuous, is anyone else having this issue where your car won't start if you are on unlevel ground??? ...
