The transmission started shifting roughly and slipping. Next thing you know the trans doesn't shift and stays in 1 gear and apparently the whole fluid leaked out of the transfer case I think, and now I need a new trans.

Took Camry in with noise after the clutch let off and was told the transmission has serious problems. They are to tear it down or put in used transmission. It. was $1000 less to tear it down and diagnose. I was told it was broken internal seals. I called Toyota to report this problem in a 2011 car and so disappointed in the multiple repairs that have had to be done on this car. They would offer no assistance or help with this car. I am a brand loyalty 5 car Toyota owner and this did not set well with me.

My light came on and I had 10 minutes to get it to the dealer. First I was told it was the computer system and it would be $1200.00 to fix. On Monday it became the transmission and it would cost $5000.00 to fix. The car was purchased new and had not gone out of the 60,000 mile power train warranty. The local dealer mechanic and technician said it was not covered and I would have to pay for it all. The battery was leaking into the transmission since i purchased the car and that was the problem and they were the ones who serviced the vehicle for the 4 years and 11 months I had the car and they should have caught that issue. They seem to be all the scam and get over business and I will say this "do not believe the hype" about a "brand". None are better than the other. This is proof.

MY 2011 camry 8000 miles....Transmission went out!!!!! At first the car did not want to go into reverse...next day I was driving at appr 35-40 miles per hour and it was just as though you had put it in neutral ,RPMS jumped up, car was still running but would not move, had traffic behind me which was real scary as the car behind me almost hit me. I waved the traffic on around, put car in park and then back into drive. I drove another mile to mile and a half and it did the same thing. I then took the car into the dealership...they kept it all afternoon testing it. One of the mechanics drove it on the interstate and almost got hit by a big truck doing the same thing. Transmission is out... NO a happy person right now. My purpose of buying a new car was to not worry about car problems and breaking down. WIll I ever feel safe in this car? NO!!!!

I bought my 2011 Toyota Camry brand new. I already put on car complaints just adding to my issue. I am now on my third transmission no thanks to Toyota. If I hadn't had a loan on this car i would have had this car crushed for good. Just letting everyone know Toyota doesn't have your back. Buy another brand. My mileage is now 115000. I hope this will be the last transmission i have to replace in this car due to their trash parts they are buying.
