The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while accelerating, the vehicle jerked and stalled with the RPM fluctuating. The cause of the failure was not determined. East coast Toyota located at 181 broad St, carlstadt, NJ 07072, (201)438-5659, was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 42,000.
Hesitation and major jerk when accelerating at low mph from a rolling stop. Tsb #T-sb-0152-19_rev should be applied to practically every Camry from 2018 & 2019. Unfortunately I can not have this done to my car because my VIN is not supported in this bulletin, I have no idea why it wouldn't be but it definitely should be because this is a major problem with my car every single day. It's getting extremely frustrating and it feels like my engine/transmission are going to fail soon and my car only has 34000 miles on it. Totally unacceptable. I have never experienced this in any other car that I have owned. Please apply this bulletin to more Camry vins!
Today I noticed during my car parked at start up there was a ticking sound towards the front end of the engine. After maybe about a min or two it quieted down a lil but it is still noticeable when your standing in front of car. I can't seem to figure out if there is a problem with the fuel pump or if the transmission is slipping as to my previous comment on acceleration delay from a stop.
I bought a new Toyota Camry 2018 le nearly 2 years ago. I bought a new car for work although since my son gave me his car I started using his and left mine to use for the gym. As now I am using my 2018 Camry now more frequently I have started to notice when I apply acceleration hard from stop there is a delay before car picks up speed. Also when I am in motion and accelerate I believe the Camry is deciding between gears and jerks when it selects the gear it wants.
When accelerating from dead stop in a right hand turn up-hill car is slow to move forward requiring more pressure on gas pedal, then transmission seems to be hunting for right gear causing a jerky motion.

My first problem happened I got my gas my car stopped and check engine lights on then all warning lights on my car. Second time happened right after I got my gas again my car stopped and I pumping my brakes paddle consistently then engine started again... I went my dealer they charging higher amount of money I couldn't fix it... if I drive over 60 mph my car shaking
My steering has become very stiff. Like it is hesitating when I make turns as if my power steering fluid is low but it is electrical. My car also stalls when I accelerate the gas. Mentioned it to dealer when first got the vehicle in 2018 and they said it was just because of the type of engine that was in it. Steering happens when taking off, slowing down, and making any kind of turn or lane change. Engine hesitates when I accelerate. Taking to the dealership to have issue checked out.
For got check off the last two questions at the end of questionnaire. I would not like my information shared and a so not receive emails about recall alerts
Vehicle was purchased in October 2017, within the first week the became noticeably louder. Initially we thought that the vehicle needed to be warned up. However the vehicle remains in high idle mode for long period of time as though the throttle is sticking. When vehicle is not in use, if restarted within 5-10 minutes the responds the same as before very high idling and sounds as though it has no oil getting to the engine(valvetrain). Car takes several moments to accelerate while the pedal is very stiff and the RPM's does not match the acceleration time. Feels like the brakes stick when you come to a complete stop. Driving on highway car tends to pickup on power itself while within the next few minutes losing power again. When exiting the highway to start city speed limits after taking off from a stop the RPM's increase however car doesn't move at desired speed(drags). Engine sounds like there is metal running through it as well as the sounds it makes while idling. Ticking.shaking, knocking all at once. I have a video of the engine noise and the way it shakes but your attachment only allows for 5mb and the video has more than 5mb. The car was taken to the dealership several times regarding this specific issue however the response was always we couldn't find anything and vehicle either needs a light on or needs to be currently showing the problem right then. They even compared it to other Camry's to make sure they said but the car was still doing the same symptoms while we were there and as we left. The vehicle is sounding far worse than it was from November 2017- to this current day and doesn't seem to be driving any better and it's beginning to feel unsafe. Also the video I have will not attach to your formats. It's only allowing photos.

My 2018 Toyota Camry skips constantly when driving. It does not happen at a certain speed, I may be just taking off or been at a constant speed for a while and it skips multiple times. I have reported this to the Toyota service department when I take my car in for service, they said they would make a note of the concern. This is very frustrating to deal with on a car that has low miles and is only 2 years old.
I just bought my car and the transmission jerks and is really bad. Dealer said he's aware buy Toyota isnt doing anything about it and it passes the software tests. I read online and there's hundreds of people complaining of the same issue. My car is a week old... I really hope you can investigate this and make.Toyota fix their transmissions. The issue happens when first starting; when driving on the highway and really any time I press the gas.
I have a 2018 Toyota Camry and on my first week after buying it, I noticed that there's a major acceleration delay that I couldn't bear anymore. It's making a weird sound and is definitely something noticeable. Toyota seriously needs to take care of this as this may cause accidents especially on merging on the freeway. I tried to take it to 2 different Toyota service centers and both just told me that my car was driving fine. I looked up some complaints for this car online and it seems like a lot of people are actually complaining about this same as with 2019 models. I hope Toyota will fix this because it's making us consumers very frustrated.
The vehicle does a weird clocking noise when acceleration and as I break or go at a lower speed or higher speed the sound is less or more. This starts at a surten speed. Also when the car is on it does the noise like a clicking sounds ive read about the recalls on this models and im concern due to the same info the car are being called for recalls. Mines doing the same noise and problem never had this problem before when going on the freeway or highway now I notice it getting worse recall number -18V200000 also theres a light that indicates the front camara is of and it goes of and on on its own sometimes
The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. While driving 80 mph at night, the vehicle suddenly decelerated to 50 mph. The failure occurred twice and nearly caused a crash the second time. The contact believed the forward collision avoidance feature suddenly activated. The manufacturer took the black box information after the vehicle was taken to green's Toyota of lexington (630 E new circle rd, lexington, ky 40505, (859) 254-5751). In addition, the brake rotors failed and the transmission suddenly downshifted while driving 35 mph. The contact felt the manufacturer was not going to assist. The manufacturer was still researching the information obtained from the vehicle's black box. The vehicle was purchased brand new and had been to the dealer between 10 to 15 times. The failure mileage was 20,000.
When one starts the car by pushing the start bottom, the car will start to shake and soon a very load cracking and rattling noise will began coming from the engine. Engine light will come on while driving in the city and then turns off causing the driver to be aware of some issue. Once the concerning noise goes away the car continues to shake but eventually stops after a while. This could make the car to stall and causing a potential crash. The vehicle left blind side detector does not respond 100%, it only works about 60% of the time. This causes the driver to think he/she are clear to turn to the left lane in the city and highway and it can cause the driver to hit another car and potentially crashing. The screen panel glitches from time to time while driving in the highway causing the driver to not be able to see and locate radio stations or manipulate the panel.
Car seems like the emergency brake is on but its not. When I drive off it pulls back and hesitates. The seatbelt doesnt always send the signal that iam wearing it which makes the car seat alarm go off. The car wont turn off when I press the button mulitiple times the ac cooling is loud along with the engine sound being also loud
The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. After attempting to pull into a parking space, the vehicle suddenly accelerated into the street and up a hill where it came to a stop. The vehicle was restarted and driven home. The vehicle was taken to steven Toyota (2970 S main St, harrisonburg, va 22801, (540) 434-1400) where it was kept for over a week, but no failure were identified. A week later, the contact parked in front of a house where it accelerated again on its own and crashed into the house at 60 mph. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer and they referred the contact to call the manufacturer. The contact wanted the manufacturer to buy back the vehicle. The contact was assigned to two case managers to find a solution for the failures. The failure mileage was 13,000.
When driving my vehicle I get a stalled response when pressing on the gas and then it jerks forward. This can be very dangerous when driving on the streets because there is a lot if stop and go movements. It usually happens when I come to a complete stop at a stop light or stop sign, even when stopping to turn down a street. I'm not sure why the vehicle does this, I just bought it so it should still be in very good shape. I'm reporting this because it can be a potential hazard for a car crash. Please have Toyota fix this problem in their 2018 Toyota Camry SE.
There are two issues with my 2018 Toyota Camry with 10,250 miles and under warranty. (1) one is a knocking sound that a Toyota dealer I took it to said is an engine problem and they have pulled the engine but they have not figured out what the problem is yet. This problem was missed when I took it to another Toyota dealer for the 10,000 oil change on July 30th, and expressed concern about a noise I thought could be a muffler noise.. this engine could have failed and only lucky for me it didn't while I was driving. This vehicle should be on the recall list for this engine problem and for the (2) transmission powertrain problem. When I pull out into major streets from a side street, I have to do it very gradually and cannot accelerate quickly because it will miss gears. This also could be dangerous when trying to pass other traffic on busy highways of one lane in each direction. Consumer stated she does not wish the investigator to make contact with the automaker at this time of the investigation.
