NHTSA Complaint #10864858 — 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY

A DRIVEABILITY CONCERN WHERE THE OPERATOR INTENTIONALLY APPLIES THE THROTTLE PEDAL, IN EXPECTATION THAT THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE, AND THEN EXPERIENCES A DELAY OR HESITATION IN VEHICLE RESPONSE. I REPORTED THE HESITATION THE NEXT DAY AFTER PURCHASING THE TOYOTA AND THE SALES PERSON SAID IT JUST NEEDED SOME ITEM TO WARM UP. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE READ ANYONE ELSE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH HESITATION. MOST PEOPLE SAY THE CAR TAKES OFF FAST ON IT'S OWN. MINE ALMOST GOT MY FAMILY KILLED SEVERAL TIMES NOT GETTING ON THE FWY WHEN NEEDED AND CAUSED ANGRY MORTOREST BECAUSE THEY ALMOST RAN INTO US. I OR MY HUSBAND WOULD STEP ON THE GAS TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR GET ON THE FWY IN CA. WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2005, JUST READ THE OTHER PERSONS COMMENT AND DECIDED TO REPORT IT ALSO. JUST MY WORD NO RECORDS SHOWING IT BUT MAYBE YOU CAN DRIVE IT AND SEE FOR YOURSELF. HAPPENS ANYTIME, SOMETIMES, NOT ALL THE TIME. HAS BEEN HAPPENING OFF AND ON SINCE 2005 TO 2016
