| Description of the problem | First time i had a problem was may 24, 2015. Since then it has happened numerous times. The car hesitates when accelerating. It happens randomly; but have noticed since it has gotten hotter, it has been happening almost every day. It happens when trying to accelerate to get on the freeway, or after stopping and accelerating. It doesn't want to go when i step on the gas. It hesitates and it is a little frightening. It was recalled by the dealer one time, but whatever they did, it didn't fix this problem. The car only has 15,000 miles. I am concerned that as it gets older, the problem may get worse. I had a 2005 camry for 9 years and never had this problem. I had read that numerous other camry owners are having the same problem. Toyota needs to look into this problem as it is a safety concern--especially while driving on the freeway or driving through an intersection. I've always loved my camry and it disappoints me to have this accelerating problem. It is a danger to me and other drivers. This happens both after being stopped at a light and also when driving about 40 mph on a city street or highway and freeway. |
