| Description of the problem | Upon doing research, i've noticed there are several complaints concerning the transmission on this vehicle. When my wife and i first bought the vehicle, i noticed the the vehicle would hesitate when shifting gears. Sometimes when i would drive the vehicle, it would rev up very quickly before it changed out. Just recently, it begun to rev up more often before it shifted gears. It did that for a few days before it wouldn't shift gears at all after 40mph. Then ultimately, it wouldn't change gears at all. My vehicle has under 134,000 miles on it and it appears the transmission has burned out on it. After analyzing the reviews concerning this issue,i feel it is fair to say that toyota has sold its consumer an inferior product. I, as a consumer, really wish toyota would consider this issue because this is a major expense at the hands of the consumer. I, being a lower class working man, really went through a lot to obtain the money to cover this expense. You probably can tell because i'm taking the time to fill out this form. That's only because i really feel this is an unfair situation to the consumer. My wife and i paid a decent penny for our 2011 toyota camry. It is less than six years old and already has a major mechanical issue. I really hope toyota considers some form of reimbursement for the consumer. I pray my words won't fall on deaf ears. Thanks. |
