| Description of the problem | Severe hesitation in throttle and transmission of the 2007 camry causing near t-bone accidents when you give it gas and go nowhere. Also when traveling, when you give it gas to get into another lane, you go nowhere for a delayed period then all of a sudden you launch forward after its too late almost running into cars in front of you. Appears as if the transmission is confused. Many near accidents because of this. Contacted toyota who agreed to "flash" the computer or reset it. This reset helped at first, at take off only, however now is back to what it was doing before. Contacted toyota again and was told that there is nothing they can do. This is very dangerous... |
