My car is hard to steer when I go around curves on the street of the mountains where I live. It feels as if I could drive right off of the mountain if I don't quickly correct the steering. It is as though it is slipping and accelerating as if I am losing control of the car. It is a frightening feeling as if it is pulling against what I am trying to do, such as turning the steering wheel to make it around curves safely.

Transmission slipping by model year
What owners say
1995 4 cylinder camry that has a thumping noise when the driver and passenger window buttons pressed to lower the windows.**cc upon acceleration, the pedal seemed to go about 1/2 to 1 inch before the transmission engaged. The transmission slipped at lower speeds when accelerating or trying to maneuver in a parking lot. The consumer stated it happens sporadically when making a right or left turn.
Accelerator stuck after pvc valve replaced caused by clamp on pvc valve. While driving about 35 MPH in traffic, noticed brakes did not stop car. Tried to pump accelerator hard to release but it did not work. Rpm's reached 6000. Tried putting car in park but it stopped at reverse. Car screeched to halt and squealed into reverse in lunch hour traffic. Immediately put back in drive. Again screach and squeal and going forward. After two attempts to get car out of gear, finally got car into neutral and pulled to shoulder of road. Whew! Turned key off. Called aaa. Aaa mechanic 'supervisor' on tow truck found accelerator stuck on clamp from pcv valve. Aaa 'supervisor' turned clamp and said accelerator would not stick on it again. Pvc valve had been replace at last oil change. Now transmission is slipping in 3rd and reverse. While on a downward hill with car in reverse, rolled forward. Car jerks around 45mph. Estimated cost to repair $1800-3200 (rebuilt vs. New). Now notice that steering column cover rattles while driving?
When braking there is a loud cluncking sound. My husband took the car to a toyota repair shop and was told that the brakes were slipping and that there wasn't anything they could do because this was the brake deign. I'm concerned that the constant slipping will eventually ruin the brakes. Thus, endangering anyone in the car.
Transmission shift lever slips into neutral while driving at all speeds.
