I have a 2013 toyota camry xle. That smells like rotten eggs when you press gas paddle. The smell comes out the exhaust pipe. Vehicles that drive behind the car smell it, to the point they back off as far as they can get. There are any warning lights coming on the dash indicating somethings wrong. I've taken the car to the toyota dealership three times and 2-toyota automotive shops. Everyone states that because the check engine light isn't on they can't tell where the smell or problem is coming from. I've switched gas from regular to midgrade & from midgrade to premium. I've had an fuel injection & fuel induction, radiators flush and nothing helped. This is my 4th camry and will be the last. I don't know if its the eco or because it's and xle. But its terrible. 😢

I was parking on my church parking lot, pulling up to the building and barely moving. Suddenly the car accelerated and slammed into the church building. I then put it in reverse to see the damage, and it shot backwards into a car and the church van.

Car seems to have slight fuel feed problem - you can feel the car slightly hesitating sometimes when just driving down the road. Every once in a while, when pulling out onto busy boulevard, after you have pulled half way out in the road, the car will not go, even tho you are stepping on the gas. This is very scary, because the other cars are coming at you, and they are expecting you to move on out of the way. The problem is intermittent: it seems to happen mostly after the car has been driven a little bit, like going to the store, then car sits for awhile, then you get back in and drive, and that is when it happens.

When I am driving while using my cruise control I've notice the car would speed up or slow down on it"s own. It happens very often. So I just quit using my cruise control for fear of something worse happening.this has been going on ever since I purchased the vehicle.

The dates above are approximate as my car is back at the dealership. The car would vibrate at 20, 40 and 60 MPH it would also lose power when taking off from a stop. I got the run around I bought new tires had an aligned changed the fuel being used. Finally they said it was my tranmission. They replaced the tranmission and did a software update. I am now at 100,000 and having the exact same problem. I am convinced this is a known issue from what I see online I have no idea why toyota hasn't officially ordered a recall! I believe I have a lemon and they should replace my car! My 16 year old daughter was driving she took off from a stop sign and was almost hit from the side the car was vibrating and wouldn't accelerate. This is a very dangerous issue. My car is currently back at pat lobb toyota waiting on their diagnosis once again!

Sometimes when starting fro a red light, or making a turn, and stepping on the gas lightly, the car will get up 12 to 15 miles perhour and there will be a complete hesitation and and lag and then suddenly the car will take off and speed up. The speed is then controllable and the brakes do work, when this happens, this causes cars behind me to slam on their brakes to avoid hitting me and when my auto speeds up, tol try to contol my car so I do not hit the cars ahead of me. This does not always happen, but when it does, it is a dangerous and scary situation. When I brought the car into the dealer, my assigned toyota service adviser screamed at me and said " do you know how many drivers come in and tell me the same story"?. One hour later he came back to me said " the service tech did not find anything wrong with the car, do you expect us to keep it here and see if it happens again"? Ma 10/14 updated 12/12/2017

I was traveling approximately 26mph into an intersection and my car started slowing down for no reason. As I entered the intersection, I started pushing down on the accelerator to get out of the way of the other ma 10/22/2015 cars trying to get through the intersection. As I kept pumping on the accelerator my transmission apparently down shifted into a lower gear and the car took off in a giant leap forward, almost broad siding the car that was passing in front of me. My car has continually stalled many times since then. I reported the problem to toyota where I bought the car, they said they had never heard of such a thing before. I'm not sure what to do now?

New vehicle after a cold start refused to accelerate. It had 2/3 tank of fuel, brakes released,and no interference with the gas peddle. Vehicle would not accelerate past 15 MPH and would hesitate and stumble to the point of engine stall when pressure on gas peddle increased. Engine warning lights did not indicate a problem. Restarted engine several times on the way to dealer service shop. About two miles from the dealer, the problem seemed to resolve itself. Dealer service could not replicate problem as of this writing and will remain with them over this weekend in the hope that the source of the problem is found and resolved. Thankfully the lack of engine response developed while driving my subdivision streets and did not contribute to and accident. It is noted that there are similar complaints for this problem on 2013 camry,s listed by owners on the internet with no noted resolution.

I was driving on m-80 across illinois, for about 2 hours on cruise control, set at 69 MPH. I suddenly realized that the car seemed to be going too fast, as I passed a couple cars rather quickly. I glanced at the speedometer and saw it, in about one second, go from 85 MPH to 87 MPH and I immediately braked, thereby stopping the cruise control (?) from continuing to accelerate the car. When this happened, I did not have my foot on the gas pedal or my hand near the cruise control mechanism. The car just simply accelerated quickly on it's own. I tried to continue to use cruise control to drive back to michigan, however shortly thereafter, it began to rain/snow so I didn't use the cruise control after that. This is a new car that I just bought in september.
