I have a 2010 toyota camry with automatic transmission, driving in a ramp, the car will slide back down to the bottom if I release my foot from the brake. Many times, in a stop and go situation, I almost hit the car behind me.
2010 Toyota Camry transmission complaints

I bought a 2010 toyota camry that has the new six speed automatic transmission. When I was coasting to slow down the transmission seemed to disengage and did not hold back anymore. I came within a foot of running into the rear of the car in front of me which was stopped at a red light. This had happened many times before but never this close to an accident. When the car reaches around 20mph the transmission doesn't hold back any longer and you have to put your foot on the brake hard. It is not a good feeling. On may 22, 2009 I called the salesman and he told me to come in and drive another 2010 camry to see if that transmission acted the same since this was the first year for the new six speed automatic. I took it in on the 22nd and the salesman and I took a new 2010 camry out for a drive and it acted the same way. So the conclusion was that all the 2010 camrys were the same and I would have to live with it. My wife is very leary about driving this car and afraid she will run into someone. We haven't had a problem with the accelerator, but the transmission seems to be a problem.we are very concerned now that the other problems have arisen about the camry.
Since the time I bought my new 2010 toyota camry, I saw issues with the way the car transmission worked at speeds from 0-50mph. Starting from the first week of my using the car, I went to the dealership a total of 4 times, only to be sent back after a "test drive" saying nothing is wrong. In my own language, I had been explaining the issue which now looks exactly similar to the 'sticking gas pedal" recall recently informed by toyota. My car was still accelerating while braking, or would start braking when my foot is off the accelerator. I also used to feel a jerk when the car moved between speeds of 0-50mph. I commute 70 miles daily to work and I have noticed this daily to the point that I have started ignoring out of deep frustration. The dealer test drives and causes embarrassment saying they cannot recreate my issue. I logged an incident with toyota (091214-000053). It LED to my fourth visit to the dealer with the same answer. Toyota's response from a case manager was that if they cannot recreate they will not do anything. I almost feel this is a hopeless case as I don't think neither toyota nor the dealership were truly serious about assisting me. They could have at least informed me that there are some potential issues with their vehicles that they are working on. I reopened a new case (100130-000604). So far I have received no recall notice from toyota. I don't think they are handling this the right way. I haven't had any major incidents, but I don't think I can wait for that to happen to get the attention of toyota or its dealer. This is not a smart way of solving an issue. I feel disappointed, angry and helpless.

I pulled into sheetz in bedford at about 515am on 01/13/10. I pressed the on/off button on the dash at which time the lights went out. I exited the car and ensured that the key fob was in my coat pocket. I spent approx 5 minutes in the sheetz store. On my way out, an unidentified sheetz customer came into the store and asked who's white camery was in the parking lot. That was my rental. We exited the store and approached the car, which was now stopped at the bottom of the slopped parking lot and near a gray f-250. Noticed damage to the hood; front bumper and driver-side headlight. The customer began to tell me he had seen me approach the store from the car and then he saw the car roll away a few minutes later. He hadn't noticed I wasn't in the car. He said he ran to the car to check on me and realized I wasn't in the car. When I looked into the car I noticed that the car was in park and shut off. I asked the customer if he had touched the car and he advised no he hadn't. The car was off and in park when he got to it. There were no warning or beeping sounds as I left the car. This was a hertz rental car and they are now wanting me to pay for damages. The car is a 2010 toyota hybrid. I spoke with the local toyota dealership and they advised there is no reason for the rollaway if car is off and in park. I feel this is a toyota problem. Please advise.
I bought a brand new 2010 toyota camry and when I was on my 30degrees inclined driveway with the engine running on drive and I took my legs from the accelerator and brakes when the car started to roll down the driveway as if it was on neutral and not on d. This is happening again and again but sometimes it does not happen. The date was 9/5/2010 not 9/5/2009.
