| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I am reporting the same stagnation issue that many others reported on 2007 toyota camry. i bought this car in march 2006 and started noticing this issue within a month of driving. so far i had at least 12 instances of this. it happens when i try to accelerate suddenly to a higher speed. the car stalls for 20-40 seconds before it speed up. many time it pulled me into risk while at merging to a main road traffic and at intersections dealer has replaced a transmission control component but this is still happening. the email i got from toyota for my query says that "...the electronic throttle control monitors the everyday driving habits of the operator and then tailors itself to make the most efficient gearshifts. on rare occasions when the operator fully depresses the pedal or depresses the pedal in an aggressive manner, the system may experience a delay in determining how to make the optimal gearshift. at this time toyota has no plans to make changes to the shift characteristics of the transmission. to minimize this condition, we recommend trying a firm yet gradual application of the accelerator..." i am using the car for more than 18 months and the 'electronic throttle control monitor' has not succeeded in finding my normal driving habit and do the normal transmission shift yet as every driver expects. since toyota has no plan to do any action on this i urge you to do something for us. *tr |
