In stop and go traffic, traveling at slow speeds with ac on in the middle of summer, if changing to a faster lane, having the gas floored, the car wouldn't accelerate/down shift that lasted about 5-10 seconds before it accelerated. One time, a car that was two cars in front of me pulled out and he was gone, while I was still sitting there with no acceleration and another car quickly approaching from the rear! I was told that others were complaining about these issues, they felt the problem but it is normal operations for the 4 cyl Camry's, that the transmission is computer controlled, and there wasn't anything they could do until Toyota put out a mod for the computer. They said Toyota should have something out soon with all the complaints, but it has been almost a year and no repair available.

Transmission hesitates when shifting under partial and full throttle. Transmission shifts up to too high of a gear in the economy mode.

- Ames, IA, USA

Vehicle often has extreme hesitation when applying gas. Car often lags. Does not accelerate consistently as it should. Primarily occurs after car is moving slowly.

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

The car sometimes stalls on acceleration during a stop, like at a red light or stop sign. City street driving.

My 2019 Camry SE has a jerky transmission. The problem occurs at low speed and seems more systematic when reaccelerating from a rolling stop. After slowing down to under 15 mph or so and attempting to regain speed (before reaching a full stop), the car typically takes a second or two to respond to throttle input then lurches forward in an aggressive and potentially dangerous way. This is not a minor inconvenience that one gets used to or can learn to live with. I believe it has the potential to cause harm to me and others in busy traffic.

- Statesboro, GA, USA

Hesitation on acceleration from a slow roll or rolling stop. Car exhibit a hesitation on acceleration from a slow roll or rolling stop under the following conditions.  6 mph or below  immediately following a 3 ' 1 downshift  less than 40% accelerator pedal application

- Atlanta, GA, USA

About a 1 second delay in acceleration especially after coasting or a rolling stop.

The transmission starting from a complete stop doesn't seem to be proper. It revs up a lot before shifting gear. Transmission is also jerky/hesistant when doing a sudden down-press on the gas-pedal

- Foothill Ranch, CA, USA

The new car has does not accelerate for sometime at stop and go and no matter how much U press the gas pedal, and when you press harder for a while a jerky quick gear change happens with unintended accelaration rates. This became particularly of concern on freeway/tollway when I tried changing lanes as the traffic started clearing, putting me at risk with fast moving traffic. The above experience of gear shift or accelaration issue is consistent behavior since I owned this car for past 2 weeks

While driving up a hill, the Camry would not accelerate with the gas pedal fully pressed. At the top of the hill, the Camry with the transmission in drive began rolling backward down the hill at what was approximately 25-30 mph. The brake would not stop the movement of the car. Eventually, the emergency brake was also put in place. The Camry rolled down the entire hill and stopped when the back tire hit the curb. The car was still on and in drive mode. We did not collide with any other cars because most were off the street. It was extremely dangerous. Fortunately, we could have been severely injured or worse. This took place on a city street. The hill is very walkable. The fact that the car would not accelerate with the gas pedal fully depressed is alarming for a new car with less than 4 months of use. The brakes would not stop the car from rolling backward while the transmission was in drive. Once the car stopped, it showed a car failure notice. The car was towed to Toyota and remains with the dealership today..

The transmission on this car does not shift the way it should. When accelerating from a stop the transmission seems to have trouble deciding what gear it should be in and the shift points are too high especially when shifting into 3rd or 4th gear. There is some serious hesitation that should not be present. Also, when downshifting it feels like someone tapped the brake pedal because it slows down significantly. If a car brakes in front of me and I have to slow down and then get back on the gas to speed back up it takes too long for the car to get up to speed to keep up with traffic. This has all happened on side streets as I have not taken the car on the highway yet.

- Niles, IL, USA

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. While driving 5 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed to the floorboard, but the vehicle failed to accelerate. The contact had just had the vehicle serviced at modesto Toyota (located at 4513 mchenry ave, modesto, ca 95356, (209) 529-2933) where the transmission was replaced. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, but the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 9,617.

The car in highway speed when the last speed engage the car starts to shake for few seconds you can feel more on hills and when press the gas to pass a car I feel like something is no right and when you make a stop and press the gas to go forward sometimes the transmission feels like is no pair with the engine I really feel worried for my wife if this car can be in neutral or no power on the highway the car doesn't feels right, this problem starts to happen a week ago the car only have 6000 miles

- Port Saint Lucie, FL, USA

I just got the car about a month and a 1/2 ago everything seemed fine until 2 weeks later after I purchased the vehicle I notice some lagging and hard jerking in the transmission when I barely push the accelerator I notice from 1st to 2nd gear it had a hard time wanting to know when to shift and when to wanna go smooth then a week and a 1/2 later the lane departure light turns on and the crash control I turned them off but it still turned on even know I went into the vehicle settings to turn them off a week following the lights started coming on more progressive except this time it deactivates all the cameras front and back I went 3 times and the main mechanic said not exaggerating like a phone it needs to learn how to work itself over time it will get better the only way we can fix it is when you brake down and get towed* all know is, is that the vehicle doesn't seem to know when to want to shift correctly there is a lag when pushing the pedal, when yielding and go it jerks hard when slowing down I feel it downshifting hard eith little thuds and my sensor lights come on and deactivate my cameras

The transmission is very clunky thru the gears. I have an automatic, sometimes its delayed when I'm trying to accelerate, itll hesitate before taking off. Iv found if you pulse the gas peddle and let up right as it starts to hesitate then back down again itll kinda avoid it but I'm not always such an active driver. Even down shifting itll be clunky and take a sec to fully do it. Like if you pull into a driveway that's slanted up you first of all have to slow down to enter and when doing that it's all slow at down shifting then U gotta hit the gas some to go up the driveway and it's all delayed at accelerating so the whole process is just clunky and does not feel right. Makes me feel the transmission is gonna burn out early. They say the 2018 models and up use some computerized transmission...I just want to it respond accordingly and to not be so sluggish about it. Sometimes I'm scared to pull out in front of traffic because it wont respond right away and I'll be at a crawling speed till it responds unless I floor it fast and let up before it revs past 3 on the RPM then tap it again. It's like it wakes it up or something I dont understand.

- Vancouver, WA, USA

Purchased my 2019 Toyota Camry xle couple of weeks back with 5 miles on it. Noticed the vehicle had issues with acceleration. When resuming to drive from a red light or stopped position, the car seem to have a major delay in acceleration and makes a loud engine noise when pressing the gas pedal. Even pressing down a bit more on the gas pedal during this initial acceleration, the car does not react much and barely picks up speed. There is a major delay, one that can be dangerous when merging onto a highway where quick acceleration is needed to avoid being a hazard to other motorists. Have not taken vehicle back to Toyota service dealer but did text my salesman and described the issue and he said to setup an appointment. I have a feeling the service department will come back saying it's nothing is wrong and functioning normally. To me this is a major design flaw that has safety concerns tied to it. Please help in any way you can. Need Toyota to do a recall on this vehicle in order to fix this issue.

The car has an issue with shifting from 1st to 2nd. When pressing gas pedal the car briefly accelerates and then the RPM drops and the car almost decelerates. When pressing the gas pedal again the car starts to jerk back and forth until the gas pedal is released. The problem is very reproducible and my sales managers at Toyota sunnyvale were trying to convince me that this is normal. They even claimed to have driven a number of other similar cars and told me that all of them have this "normal" behavior (which confirms that a lot of cars should have this problem). They also said the car is "learning", which is totally bogus. After approaching them with service bulletin T-sb-0330-17 which describes the exact same problem but for 2018 model, they claimed my car can't have this problem since bulletin is for 2018, but the cars have exact same transmissions.

- Mountain View, CA, USA

Reaccelaration shock, transmission lag, especially upon re-acceleration from coasting or when trying to overtake someone on the highway, dangerous. Lugging and shift shock on downshifting and upshifting, feels like you get rear ended sometimes. When on a complete stop and step on the gas pedal the car feels like it's stuck in neutral and then it jerks into gear.

- Atlanta, GA, USA

Transmission seem very unresponsive when pressing accelerator. Revs up to 2500 before transmission engages. Almost was hit when making a left turn.
