| Description of the problem | Tl*the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry. While driving at any speed, the accelerator intermittently hesitates. The failure usually occurs when attempting to accelerate from a stop, when making a turn, and on major streets. The vehicle would not accelerate when the accelerator pedal was depressed. She has taken the vehicle to the dealer a couple of times and was informed that the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was also taken to the dealer a couple of times because the gears would shift as if the transmission were manual, but it is an automatic. The contact informed the dealer that there was a service bulletin that described her failures exactly. The dealer recalibrated her computer and there was a slight improvement with both the vehicle hesitating and the gears shifting as though they were manual. Both failures continue to occur. She was informed that nothing could be done. The vin was unknown. The current mileage was 12,100 and failure mileage was 10,550. The consumer stated the vehicle would not accelerate from a stop. The transmission felt like a manual transmission. Updated 11/26/07. *jb |
