Leaving home in my 2009 Toyota Camry; while pulling out of my driveway (forward, not reverse) the accelerator stuck in a high RPM mode; the car bolted across the street, hit a ditch and caused major damage to my car including air bag deployment; all this happened while I was trying to brake, but the stuck accelerator was at too high an RPM for the car to stop.

On April 22, 2009, an oil line part #15707-31030 ruptured on our 2007 Toyota Camry VIN very rapidly pumping oil from the engine and requiring immediate repair. Since April 2009, while investigating reimbursement for repair costs, several Toyota service representatives from local dealerships stated that Toyota has identified this model engine in avalon vehicles as having this same ruptured oil line defect as occurred on my vehicle. Since July 2009 while seeking reimbursement for engine repairs with Toyota customer service, I requested that this issue be pursued internal to identify this defect through technical bulletin or recall for Camry vehicles. On January 6, 2010, I spoke to miguel lopez, supervisor, Toyota customer experience, department WC10, Toyota motor sales, U.S.a., reference this issue and he stated very clearly that "no action or follow-up" phone calls or other communication would be taken by his office to investigate this safety issue with Camry?S. he stated that safety concerns would have to be taken through a local dealership. Mr. Lopez stated he was the senior supervisor and he would not connect me to any other supervisor or point of contact within Toyota.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. After purchasing the vehicle on October 31, 2006, the contact noticed that there was a lack of acceleration in the vehicle. While attempting to accelerate from a complete stop, the vehicle hesitated. The accelerator pedal was depressed to the floor, but the vehicle still hesitated to pick up speed and then suddenly sped off. The dealer found no failures; however, they later asked her to bring the vehicle back for repairs. After the repairs, the vehicle continued to lack acceleration. The contact returned to the dealer and repaired again. The vehicle was serviced a total of seven times and the dealer stated that they "updated" the vehicle; however, the failure persists. The failure mileage was 3,000 and current mileage was 26,500.

2007 Camry-transmissions hesitates-was in 3 + times to correct...not corrected. The vehicle is dangerous and very unsafe. Was recalibrated twice, problem still exists. Have had numerous near miss accidents due to this hesitation in the transmission. Went through Toyota arbitration, was denied. There is a real design defect with this vehicle and should be considered very unsafe to operate.

Intermittently, the vehicle will not respond to the throttle. The problem happens frequently, particularly when I brake and decelerate from above 30mph, then make a turn, such as exiting an off ramp, at about 5-20 mph, I press the accelerator to accelerate out of the turn, and the throttle does not respond for about 3 to 15 seconds. I consider this a serious safety issue where I cannot depend on the vehicle responding to the throttle allowing me to control the vehicle. This problem happens under other circumstances, and is completely unpredictable, but the above scenario is the most consistent. I took the vehicle to Toyota for this issue for the second time and was told: '..that is the way it is..' and "..this is how the fly-by-wire system works in the Camry.." by the service tech of power Toyota irvine on Tuesday Apr 29. He acknowledged that it is a safety issue and encouraged me to speak with the tech robert who knows how to work around the issue by manipulating the throttle and recommended that I complain directly to Toyota. He also mentioned that if I bug Toyota, they will be motivated to '.. fix the software, put a new computer in it, or take care of you some other way..'

2007 Toyota Camry would free wheel when foot is taken off the throttle. Consumer's vehicle does not free wheel in traffic and states people behind him have to suddenly hit their brakes to avoid hitting him. The consumer also stated when making a turn after slowing down to a few miles per hour and then applying pressure to the gas pedal, the vehicle would hardly accelerate for several seconds and then suddenly take off. The dealer corrected the problem slightly with recalibration.

I have a 2007 Camry le and experience a delay in acceleration from a stop to 25 mph. It does not occur all the time but I've experience it 4 times in the last 5 months. The car hesitate for about 3 seconds before starting to move. One time an SUV had to steer to avoid me as I was making a left turn. This seems to be common base on the complains I've seen on this website.
