 Description of the problemI purchased my 4 cyl 2007 toy. Camry le in 8/06. I felt this was an investment much like my other 2. However, by the 1st oil change i discovered the problem of hesitation and stalling when accelerating from a stopped position. After a complaint to the service department, i was told they could "recalibrate" the transmission and fix the issue. I allowed the adj. To be performed. The issue was improved for a couple of weeks but much to my dismay returned within a couple of weeks. Once again, i complained to my dealer and was told that "it was just the way the new camry was made to achieve better gas mileage and that if i wanted more power, i should have bought a 6 cyl." the salesman that sold me the car, offered the solution of me purchasing a turbo booster for the car. The cost estimated in the thousands. This was not an option. The problem worsened in the winter months, causing me many instances of close calls. On one occasion i made a legal right turn on red when it appeared the path was clear, a driver suddenly changed their mind to come straight into my lane behind me. I looked in my rearview mirror, saw the oncoming car, pressed the gas and the car went no where, simply coasted down the on ramp. I pressed the gas pedal to the floor and after a few seconds the car kicked into gear, redlined in rpms and finally took off allowing me to get out of the other driver's way. There have been too many other instances to discuss in this forum, however, this was the worst and most scary. I implore your organization to make toyota take responsibility for the problem and fix it. The calibration is not a viable solution b/c it does not cure the problem, merely stops the complaint for a few weeks. I have had this car for 1 year now and felt that i had no recourse on the issue any longer until the news reports came out. I have a renewed hope that your concerns will prompt further investigation and acceptable solution to this potentially deadly issue. *jb
