| 2009 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | I HAVE CAMRY 2009. IT CURRENTLY HAS 34400 MILES. ACCORDING TO TOYOTA DEALER - AFTER A TECHNICIAN TESTS DRIVE THE VEHICLE - THE ISSUE IS DESCRIBED "DOWNSHIFT ISSUE UNDER HEAVY BRAKE". BELOW IS DETAILS OF THE PROBLEM. AFTER I APPLY BRAKE AT STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED BUT THEN VEHICLE IS STILL JUMPING UP - MOVING UP JUST RIGHT AFTER IT STOPS. BELOW IS HOW TOYOTA RESPONDS ON THE ISSUE. ON AUGUST 5TH, 2011, I BRING THE CAR TO TOYOTA DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN IS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND OPEN A CASE NUMBER REPORTING TO GST (GULF STATE TOYOTA). I HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN APPOINTMENT WITH GST AND TOYOTA DEALER UNTIL 8/30/2011. ON AUGUST 31ST, I BROUGHT THE CAR IN 2ND TIME SO THAT THE DEALER CAN COLLECT MORE INFORMATION AND SEND TO GST (ACCORDING TO THE DEALER). THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE LAST TIME. BUT THEY WILL NEED TO RE-PROGRAM (SOFTWARE) ON THE COMPUTER SYSTEM SO THAT THE COMPUTER SYSTEM CAN RE-LEARN THE SHIFTING PATTERN OF THE TRANSMISSION. HERE IS MY OPINIONS. I AM NOT CONVINCED AT ALL THIS WILL RE-SOLVE THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE MIGHT APPEAR AGAIN ANY TIME. HERE ARE SOME MORE FACTS. DURING THE WAITING TIME - 3 WEEKS - I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE AT ALL. THE DEALER CERTAINLY DOES NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE LONG ENOUGH BEFORE THEY CAN SEE THE ISSUE AGAIN. WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON THE 2ND TIME, I SEE IT HAPPENS TWICE. THIS KIND OF ISSUE ABSOLUTELY MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS WHEN I HAVE TO APPLY BRAKING. I HOPE TOYOTA CAN ROOT CAUSE THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. WHO KNOWS THIS ISSUE CAN BE WORST AND TOTALLY OUT OF CONTROLS ONE DAY. *TR |
