This problem may be covered under warranty. Ask your Toyota dealer.
Transmission shifts hard at slow speeds - when accelerating car jerks, this is dangerous when pulling ahead in traffic (getting worse). Each time I have it serviced, am told "that's just the way it is, every Camry has that problem and there's nothing they can do about it". Can't believe there's nothing dealer can do about it!

This has been an on going issue from early on. I now have nearly 50,000 miles on this car and just pray if something goes really wrong it is before the extended warranty is up.

From the get-go transmission shifted hard at slow speeds and when accelerating hard to ramp up on the freeway. Toyota told me it was because the accelerator was no longer a throttle cable but was digital and that is just the way it is. Now have 15,000 mi. Seems to be getting worse. Anyone else have the problem?

Due to the fact (according to the dealer) that the throttle is computer controlled (should update the software by now), the vehicle shifts hard, usually a downshift, at slower speeds. Definitely annoying but difficult to get across to the service folks that there is something wrong.
