Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I was braking for a stoplight. after coming to a complete stop the engine began to race with the rpms rising above 4000 before i turned off the ignition. i had to press down on the brake pedal as hard as i could and was barely able to hold the car at the intersection. this was the second time this had happened. the first time occurred approximately 2 months earlier. during that incident, the engine raced to over 6,000 rpms before i shut off the ignition. after both incidents, i took the car to lithia toyota in redding, ca. both times they said that no error codes were set and since the car engine did not race during the test drives, there was nothing wrong with it. they stated tha they had never heard of any other toyota vehicles behaving in this manner, yet i found 25 similar complaints regarding the 2004 camry on this website, and 21 such complaints for 2002 through 2005 model year corollas.
