transmission problem

- TSB # 0330-17 - Toyota has recognized the transmission problem and issued a technical service bulletin (TSB) in response. The article (TSB #T-SB-0330-17) points to a problem with the car’s main computer, the powertrain control module (PCM). Dealers have been instructed to reprogram the PCM to remedy the concern. Just had mine done and car drives tons better.

My first ever new car was a 2018 Camry. GREAT looking car and looked awesome in white. After driving off the lot, a month later I was back to the dealership because it was shifting roughly. It happened a lot during slower speeds. It was annoying enough that passengers asked me what was wrong.
Dealership stated there was a fix but my car was actually already installed with the software update. Same thing kept happening and I kept on asking the dealership if they were sure it had been updated. Sadly, they had no solution and the transmission kept shifting roughly. They also stated that the car was just learning how I drive (which is like a grandma).
Someone recently rear ended me on the freeway and totaled my car 4 years later after ownership. I was slightly glad so I wouldn''t have to deal with the transmission problems. I was looking into a 2019 Rav4, but thankfully this site told me it was one of the worst cars. Back to Honda?? Maybe, we'll see.
