The contact called germain toyota of columbus at (614) 686-0300 (located at 5711 scarborough blvd, columbus, oh 43232) and was informed that the vehicle was out of warranty; therefore, the contact would be charged a diagnostic fee.

Update to the federal safety agency id - 10937419 my 2016 toyota camry se has since been back in and out of the shop with the same since the original complaint my car has been at the dealership 5 times. Each time was simply told "normal operation" or "could not duplicate"...it is intermittent had received a call from my service advisor that they pulled codes showing the following; p1604 - startability malfunction p2610 - ECM/PCM internal engine off timer performance b1507 - vehicle speed control and idle control related he informed me it was likely a bad ECM and was waiting on toyota to approve the repair. Shortly after I was informed toyota denied the repair stating driver error... And the service invoice says no codes? I have report showing otherwise!!! In april, my car accelerated pulling into a driveway and ran into the back of truck at approximately 5 MPH causing damage to the hood, grill and bumper of my vehicle. I reported this incident and toyota took my vehicle in for 20 days for an investigation and brought in a "3rd party" to pull the edr box info. When the 3rd party sent me their readings...all codes including freeze codes were non-existent? However I demanded the diagnostic report from daytona toyota and have that to prove they were indeed there to begin with. Where did they go? I spoke with wendy olsen the victim and witness coordinator of the us attorneys office southern district of new york regarding this matter. Honorable william h. Pauley iii us district judge for the southern district of new york arranged a deferred prosecution of fraud charges on toyota for this same issue in 2014 and upon completion of monitoring for several years the case was to be nullified, however that was changed and was not...there must be a reason why!!! I have attached documents to show service records with obvious personal information blocked for privacy reasons!
I am writing to report a defect and safety concern about my 2016 toyota camry. Last july I bought a 2016 toyota camry (VIN:[xxx]) from toyota of sarasota (7435 s tamiami trail sarasota, fl 34231). Last november, when I was driving this car on i75, the engine shut off suddenly and the dashboard was dead as well . I was so scared and pulled the car over to the shoulder of the road. When I calmed down , I tried to restart the engine, and it worked again. I thought it was just because it was a new car and did not report this to the dealer immediately. When my first scheduled service visit on january this year, I told the dealer what happened in november and asked them to check the car carefully and thoroughly. They told me they did not hear of the thing I told them ever happened on camry before and agree to take a look. They found nothing wrong with my car. But two weeks later, the engine shut off again when I driving the car on highway i75. The same thing happened again. I called toyota though the number 800‑331‑4331, and they said they did not have the similar case reported and suggested me to check my car at the dealer. I stopped by the dealer and they drove my car on the highway trying to duplicate the problem but failed. They also check the car thoroughly and found nothing unnormal. Yesterday(7/2/2017), I went the dealer for my second scheduled service visit and everything was good for my car. But when I was driving home on i75, the engine stopped working again. I restarted the car and drove back to the dealer reporting them the problem. They check the car again and found nothing wrong again. Enclosed please find the pictures I took yesterday when I pulled over my car on the shoulder of the road. The dashboard was dead and the key was still at the on position. Please help me to fix this problem, which is a serious safety concern. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
At stop signs or traffic lights, the engine would rev considerably & then stop. As we approached our driveway, the car lurched forward, then stopped. We got to our garage-entry control box & the car lurched forward on our parking deck, going less than 5 MPH, & we hit a brick wall. We then put the car in reverse & it lurched backwards so we stopped the car, turned it off & called the police. My husband, who was driving, sustained chest injuries (black & blue, injured sternum, mark on his collarbone from the seat belt not restraining him sufficiently, difficulty breathing/standing/dressing/walking - general pain & suffering) which weren't visible to the emts at the time & he didn't need to go to the hospital although his regular doctor advised him to see another at an emergency care center. I refused him moving it elsewhere as I didn't want to do further damage to the car or another vehicle while we waited for the police. I, as the passenger, was not affected at all physically. The car was towed to our dealership's service center where it's been sitting since 3/21/17 awaiting a toyota inspection on april 21st - why it should take so long is inconceivable as it's our only car!
In july 2016 I was cresting the top of a hill when another vehicle pulled out in front of me causing me to hit my brakes. Upon braking and deceleration, I felt the car momentarily try accelerating through the brakes. This freaked me out and I pulled over to try and figure out what had happened. Checked my floor mat and everything was locked in place as it should be. So I started my car back up, with it in park gave it a little rev. That is when I noticed that when the motor is coming back down on the RPM's, it is actually hanging up, and sometimes actually jumping at or around 1500 rpms. It does it every single time. I have had the vehicle into two dealerships now to be told nothing we can do. I don't believe this is a single vehicle issue...I am the only one lucky enough to have had my car momentarily accelerate through the brakes and said anything so far! I have sat in numerous brand new toyotas with the 2.5l like the camry and rav4 and every new toyota does this weird RPM jump on their own and all the dealers said to me was "if the others are doing it on the lot....it is obviously normal" this is not normal and is an obvious flaw in the design of something in toyota's 2.5l engine. I have been trying since july to work with toyota and have now decided to escalate it through the federal safety agency because I feel this is a huge concern and needs to be addressed!!!!!! I have taken a video and uploaded it to youtube. The link is as follows below. Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9jutpqv2u8&t=11s
