The car has acceleration/speed problems. It takes too long to accelerate when changing lanes, passing other vehicle, or entering freeway. This issue is going on all and every time I drive it. I purchased the car one month ago. This is my 5th Camry and I never had this problem. Car is unsafe and im scared to drive. Toyota, do something before someone dies!!!!!!!!!!. I almost got rear-ended couple of times
When the car in the low speed around 20 miles/hour and the engine around 2000rpm, the transmission is wired trying to find specified gear, make the car speed increased and decreased, it like jerk the car. Another problem is when you trying to speed up catch up cars speed from lower speed on highway, press the gas pedal, the car just like thinking the life philosophy the RPM reach 4000 the car suddenly speed up.
The 2018 Toyota Camry is having a problem shifting and allowing the car to increase speed. The car constantly jerks when you try to move and sometimes when you're sitting it still jerks. It's like the transmission is missing a shift or something.
Car is hesitating/sluggish when accelerating from a stop/rolling stop. Takes forever to get to highway speeds, which is extremely dangerous. When there is traffic on a highway, changing lanes into a lane in which traffic is going faster is extremely hard due to fear being rear-ended. Car struggles to get from 0-45 and will only do so when the accelerator is stepped down all the way. Transmission shifts are very jerky. Seems like the transmission doesn't know what gear to be in 90% of the time. All these symptoms appear to be in only the 4 cylinder model of the 2018 Camry.
The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. Upon starting the vehicle, the traction and check engine warning indicators illuminated. Also, when the accelerator pedal was depressed, the vehicle started shaking. The vehicle was taken to darcars 355 Toyota rockville (15625 frederick rd, rockville, md 20855 (301) 340-0900) where it was diagnosed that rodents chewed through the insulation and wiring, which needed replacement. The vehicle was repaired. The contact researched the failure online and found that a soy-based product was used in making the insulation and wiring, which could attract rodents. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and did not assist. The failure mileage was 700.
