8 speed transmission the transmission performs poorly, regularly stalling between shifts, causing a lag in acceleration. It can't seem to pick a gear, leaving the vehicle stalled briefly, while the accelerator is depressed. Once, at a large intersection, in a high traffic area, from a stop, I attempted a right turn. The car stalled, while I depressed the accelerator, causing a mild panic, as I was confronted with an 18 wheeler attempting to turn into my lane. The car eventually accelerated, getting me out of the way, in a harried and frustrated huff at the poor performance of this new car. The transmission does not mis-perform upon every single shift of the gears, but there will be mis-performance occurring on every single trip taken in the car.
2018 Toyota Camry fuel system complaints

I have had constant problems with my 2018 camry since purchasing may 2018. My car is always jerking as I accelerate and when I'm driving in town, feels like I'm getting rear-ended and hesitating on highway when I have to accelerate into traiffic which is very dangerous when the car won't get up and go. I have had it to the dealer several times. They reset the computer because it can save settings from previous drivers. That didn't help. They told me that it's a different transmission and it takes few seconds for the computer to communicate back to transmission. This is a very unsafe feature. The car is super loud and rough feeling with the tires. I feel like I'm driving an old vehicle from the 80's. The entune app has constant issues of not loading or recognizing my phone. Tire pressure light comes on all the time and pressure tests fine at dealer. Maintenance light comes on every 5000 miles for tire check and oil only needs changed 10000. Maintenance light should be separate from oil change so you know which one needs done.
Hesitation when accelerating when starting from a stop.
(hybrid mod) while traveling on an interstate in may , the rt rear tire blew out(odo 7,000). Seemed to be no reason, it just blew out. Then in july, again on an interstate, the lt rear tire blew(odo 12,000). Once again, no reason, just blew out. We we're told by firestone that the tires on my vehicle have been discontinued & I can not do a warranty claim because I did not purchase the tires from them, toyota did so toyota has to do the claim. Toyota tells me they do not warranty tires, firestone does & I have to go through firsetone for warranty claim. No one seems to want to address the fact that there are still 2 more tires (on the front) that could still blow out & cause me to have an accident. Dealer told me they couldn't help because I didn't keep the tires to show they were defective. The brakes have always been overly sensitive. The car then started braking (the collision safety feature) when there are no other vehicles, people, animals,etc in sight. It has happened on highways, city streets, straight roads, in curves,sunny days, rainy days,etc. The vehicle randomly decides to engage the braking safety system when it should not. All the dealer where I purchased the vehicle could offer as a suggestion was to turn that feature off! As if all that wasn't enough, while backing up & coming to a complete stop (but still in reverse) the car lunged back another foot or better causing me to collide with a basketball pole in my driveway. After that, when I pump fuel niw I have to hold the handle so it doesn't touch or lean against the bottom part of the neck hole. Otherwise, any fuel you try to put in it will flow right back out & run down the car to the ground. I have repeatedly asked dealer to deal with these issues & told them I don't feel like ithe vehicle is safe at this point. After months of run around & not returning my calls, dealer referred me to toyota today.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota camry. While driving 70 MPH, an abnormal thumping noise was heard from underneath the vehicle. Another motorist alerted the contact that the vehicle was leaking fuel. The contact was able to coast onto the shoulder and had the vehicle towed to central toyota (11020 south orange blossom trail, orlando, fl 32837). The dealer diagnosed that the fuel tank plastic shield and the plastic fuel tank fractured, which caused the fuel to leak. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted.
