| Description of the problem | I purchased the car not even 4 months in and i started hearing a "knocking sound" in the engine. I took videos of it. I noticed the the knocking sound comes on when i drive it for a while. I took the car the dealership and showed them the video. The service tech drove it and said he didn't hear anything. They ran tests on it and they said nothing is wrong with the car. The service rep said he drove the car for 5 mins on the street. But i told him the sounds starts after i drive the car for a while and in the freeway. They sent me home and said nothing is wrong. I drove the car again on the freeway and the sound came back on. I also have felt what other camry users are saying about the lack of acceleration when driving the car. It does take time to pick up speed and it can be dangerous when merging onto freeways and lanes. Need to get this fix or they need to make a recall on this model. |
