| Description of the problem | I bought my wife a new 2008 camry in sept 07, it was doing great, the current mileage is 7,100 miles since 2,898 miles the transmission has been hesitating it seems it doesn"t want to switch gears when it should this is an automatic, it appears to happen between 40-50 mph, i have reported the problem more then once to diehl toyota in york, pa where i purchased it, but was told problem could not be found or its not doing it now. Or we have received little complaints about this type of problem. I feel toyota is giving the consumer a run around about a problem that has exited for at least 07/08 camry's someone needs to make them take care of this issue. By the way its bad enough to have the problem when your finanacing, but in my case i paid cash for this vehicle and feel cheapened. |
