2019 Toyota Camry complaints

1. ABS TRACTION control on, PCS system activated, Secondary brake collision activated and will be available upon inspection. 2. happened mid street with cars in traffic and my daughter in the back seat 3. They are stating transmission but do not want to check ABS system faults. Car was new off the lot unsure why this problem got triggered. I went to Toyota Alhambra and Longo Toyota they do not want to address C codes this is a safety defect that needs to be brought up 4. Will be filing with corporate but wanted to address this issue as this is not the only Toyota with this issue. 5.UKNOWN from my acknowledgement there were no warnings before this happened. Toyota is assuming it is transmission refuses to check ABS system and address C codes

Issue: loud whining coming from transmission during acceleration, rough shifting, transmissions slips. Rough shifting noticed shortly after 25k warranty. More details: I had purchase my vehicle new at Dublin Toyota and have serviced my vehicle regularly recommended by Toyota dealer. Took into dealer for 90k service which included transmission fluid change. After the service I noticed that the bill didn’t include transmission fluid on the materials list. I called the service advisor and asked if it had been changed. The service advisor said he couldn’t prove it as it was not listed so he asked that I bring it back in and he will make sure it is changed. I brought the car back in.. The service team never mentioned any concerns with transmission. Whining started a couple weeks after. I took my car to transmission shop, who inspected a found black burnt transmission fluid with metal pieces. I informed them that I brought my car in for service which was supposed to include a transmission fluid change. They said it didn’t look like it was changed, and if it was, the the service tech would have noticed the black fluid and should have advised of transmission concerns. I was advised that the transmission is damaged beyond being rebuild and needs to be replaced. This failure is a known and acknowledged issue with Toyota UA80F/E transmissions.

Jerking shifting hard stalled in traffic

My 2019 Toyota Camry has 75,000 miles and is experiencing a premature and progressive transmission failure that creates serious safety risks. Symptoms include hesitation and loss of power during acceleration, harsh and delayed shifting, RPMs increasing without vehicle movement, failure to properly engage gears (including reverse), and loud whining/grinding noises. These issues make the vehicle unsafe to drive, especially when merging, crossing intersections, or accelerating from a stop. Toyota and the dealership have confirmed the transmission is failing, yet Toyota has stated that no new or used replacement transmission is available and no repair timeline exists. The vehicle was returned to me despite being unsafe. Toyota has provided no transportation assistance, no repair ETA, and no remedy, leaving me with an undrivable vehicle and ongoing financial obligations. I am aware of numerous similar consumer complaints and ongoing litigation involving Toyota’s 8-speed automatic transmissions exhibiting the same symptoms. This appears to be a systemic defect that poses a safety risk to drivers and the public. I am requesting NHTSA review and investigation.

I am reporting a safety-related transmission failure in my 2019 Toyota. The vehicle suddenly lost the ability to drive forward without any warning. There were no check engine lights, warning lights, or alerts before or during the failure. The vehicle would only go in reverse and became completely undrivable. At the time of the failure, my children and my elderly mother were in the vehicle, creating a serious safety risk. Had this occurred in traffic or at an intersection, it could have resulted in an accident. After the failure, I contacted over 30 transmission shops and mechanics, and none are willing to rebuild or repair the transmission due to known and recurring issues with this Toyota transmission model. I contacted Toyota directly and was provided a repair estimate of approximately $8,000, which is unreasonable for a 2019 vehicle and makes repair financially impossible. The vehicle was towed and remains undrivable. I am currently paying $30 per day for a rental vehicle, causing financial hardship. I am submitting this complaint so this issue is documented as a potential safety defect

The transmission started slipping in December 2025. It is been in the repair shop since approximately December 22, 2025. The shop can’t find replacement parts or a used transmission. The list for a new transmission is over a 1,000 nationwide.

Transmission issues when shifting from park to drive, reverse to drive, and randomly when driving. Numerous times when pulling out in traffic from dead stop after shifting from park to drive car didn’t accelerate leaving car drifting into oncoming traffic until gear engaged which is very dangerous to the point I wouldn’t let my wife drive the car. Warning light has came on a handful of times and had been dismissed as not an issue until this past time of putting it in the shop. Car was in shop for this issue 4 times starting in 5/25 and is currently in shop now. My visit in June I expressed same concerns and service center told me my transmission was fine. This current visit at service center they told me I’m going to need a new transmission. Vehicle has 70k miles and transmission is already failing due to a faulty product. Toyota needs to be held responsible for this as it is a major safety concern and they advertise as a reliable car maker but with these transmission issues that numerous people are also dealing with that can’t be true and is false advertising

Toyota camry began shifting rough and jerking when accelerating between 2nd and 3rd gear. Next there was an audible whine and rumble while the car was driving. This occured for approximately 1 week with no indicator lights. On January 1st, there was a total transmission failure and failure of automatic break system and the camry lost power when accelerating. The vehicle only had 64,000 miles and was outside of warranty.

The panoramic sun roof is stuck open and will not shut dealer wanted almost 10k to replace

My car would not go passed 10mph at times. When going up hill it would barely move. At the time I had to drive up hill to leave home on a main road & this put myself & others in danger. I took my car to the dealership where they told me I needed a new transmission. At this time the car had less that 100k miles on it. There were no warning lights on the vehicle. I called the the manufacturer who said it could only be covered if it fit the TSB 0152-19 which the dealer claimed it didn't. I ended up having to pay out of pocket.

The shut off valve coolant hose leaked into my engine and caused it to over heat, stopping in the street while driving and almost caused an accident. There was no warning until after it over heated. The vehcile was towed to a shop for inspection and I had to replace the engine. Due to the damage the coolant leak cause.

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that during the cold season, the vehicle would need to warm up to function as intended. The contact stated that while driving while the vehicle had not warmed up, the transmission slipped and slowly shift gears. In addition, the contact noticed an abnormal sound coming from the transmission. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the transmission had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was taken to a transmission specialist, where it was confirmed that the transmission had failed, metal shavings were found in the transmission fluid, and the transmission fluid looked burnt. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000.

There is a very widely known issue with Toyota Camrys 2018 to 2024 due to the 8 speed automatic transmission. My safety reason for reporting is without warning I was accelerating to pull out at a intersection and it just started reving up to a high rpms and would not hardly move . This is gonna get some one killed this is very dangerous. Toyota already has 2 class action lawsuits due to these transmissions and just in the usa alone from speaking to Toyota dealership in California and in North Carolina that they have over 100 on national backorder. This is a serious safety hazard. Time will show I am right.

When driving the car, the power steering system lost functionality. It can still be driven with many efforts and extra forces. The dealer checked it and confirmed that it was the power steering malfunction.

The transmission in my 2019 Toyota Camry went from normal, expected operation to complete transmission failure in less than 2 weeks! There was no advanced notice of the issue until the transmission issues became so pervasive that I was already taking it in to be looked at. That was when the dashboard lit up with notifications of pre-collision system malfunction, drive-start control malfunction and secondary collision brake system malfunction followed by a notification to take it to the dealer (where I was headed when this occurred). I pulled the vehicle off the highway and had it towed to the dealer as the vehicle was not drive-able and would not stay in gear. The reason for going to the dealer was the day before, I went to a mechanic and on the way the CEL came on. The mechanic noted the scanner did not have any codes and suggested I take it to the dealer... where I was going when the above happened. I use this car to transport my children to school and the 2 days prior to the complete malfunction of the car's transmission the failure to find a gear while accelerating resulted in multiple instances where vehicles behind me came exceptionally close to a rear end collision. On one instance, I was crossing an intersection and the transmission didn't find a gear and I narrowly avoided being struck broadside by another vehicle. The service department at the Toyota dealership advised the transmission suffered complete internal failure (providing numerous codes regarding the soleno

My 2019 Toyota Camry experienced a progressive transmission failure that created a safety concern. The issue began with intermittent loss of shifting on cold starts, where the vehicle became stuck in 3rd gear. Engine RPM would increase but the vehicle would not accelerate normally. Shifting into Park and back into Drive would temporarily restore operation. Over time, the condition worsened and the transmission became stuck in a higher gear (5th gear) and would no longer reset, even after parking and restarting the vehicle. Manual shift mode did not function. This caused delayed acceleration and unsafe driving conditions in traffic. A Toyota dealership diagnosed the vehicle and reported internal transmission failure, including pressure control solenoid faults and metal found in the transmission fluid, and recommended full transmission replacement. There were no warning lights when the issue first occurred, and the failure progressed over time. I believe this represents a potential safety-related defect in transmission durability.

The vehicle has experienced ongoing engine misfire issues while driving. The check engine light illuminated, and diagnostic testing identified a cylinder misfire (P0302). The vehicle shakes, runs rough, and has reduced power, especially during acceleration. These symptoms create a safety concern, as the loss of power and engine instability could affect the ability to safely merge, accelerate, or maintain speed in traffic. The issue has been confirmed by diagnostic scans performed by an independent service center. The problem appears to be persistent and not consistent with normal wear for a vehicle of this age and mileage. No collision has occurred, but the condition poses an ongoing safety risk while operating the vehicle. The issue has not yet been resolved by the manufacturer.

Vehicle only has 58,983 miles and already has a failing transmission. Dealership recommends full transmission replacement costing $8,000.00. I am not even done with the monthly payments and I am currently in financial burden. PLEASE HELP ME

On multiple occasions, when I accelerate — even lightly — the transmission of my 2019 Toyota Camry emits a persistent whining noise. The noise appears as I press the accelerator and increases in pitch and volume as I continue accelerating. As soon as I ease off the accelerator, the whining stops immediately. This behavior happens during normal driving — not under extreme conditions or aggressive driving — and regardless of speed (both city and highway conditions). This whining noise is not a normal transmission behavior for a properly functioning vehicle. I believe this indicates a possible defect or problem with the transmission (or transmission-related components) rather than wear-and-tear due to high mileage or neglect, because: •The vehicle has been regularly maintained (oil changes, scheduled maintenance, etc.). •I have not abused the transmission, used it for towing, nor driven in severe off-road conditions. •The noise occurs under normal acceleration and is reproducible. I am concerned for my safety and the safety of others, because a failing transmission — or a transmission with design/manufacturing defect — could lead to unexpected shifting issues, loss of power, or other mechanical failure while driving. According to a safety-watchdog summary of NHTSA data, there are 338 complaints submitted to NHTSA for 2019 Toyota Camry models.

My fuel line came out while I was driving and almost cause my car to catch fire. Which caused my check engine light and other sensors to come on. After further inspections my vehicle indicated my fuel line/hose caused my engine to enter into limp mode explaining on my dash board as Reduce Engine Power.

My transmission is going out. I bought this car brand new back in 2019. I am at 80k miles. It is available for inspection upon request. No light has came on, but there has been a loud whining noise whenever I press on the accelerator. I took it into a shop and they said my transmission is going to go out any time now.. My safety could have been put at risk because no light has came on with a warning. It's only been seen by the shop I took it to.

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving 25-30 MPH, the transmission slipped out of gear. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the failure progressively worsened. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle failed to accelerate properly or exceed 15 MPH, and the vehicle stalled in the middle of the highway. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after several attempts. The contact pulled over to the side of the road and turned off the vehicle. The contact restarted the vehicle after an extended period. The contact resumed driving, but the failure recurred. The contact was able to push the vehicle to the nearby residence with assistance. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with transmission failure. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000. The VIN was unavailable.

Total Transmission failed putting our safety at risk on a busy highway. Problem has been taken care of by an Independant Service Center. The car would not switch gears on acceleration to merge with traffic on the interstate and made a horrible noise and Check Engine light came on. $6000 later and week without a car, it is fixed. Our previous Toyotas NEVER gave us as many problems as this model. We are so disappointed and regret our purchase. Friends say " Buy a Toyota...they last forever...NOT !!" This is one of the worst models ever. A 5 yr old car with low mileage should not have a transmission blow. Transmission specialist told us many are putting in complaints of the same situation with same model but not enough yet to cause a Recall...IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. Makes me reconsider ever purchasing a Toyota again.

Transmission problems. Transmission makes whining noises and jerks. The car only has 56k miles on it. After doing research, a lot of people are having this issue and Toyota is not doing any types of recalls on this. I paid for a "reliable" car, but this car is far from it, not safe to drive. Dealer quoted around $10K to change transmission. What a disappoitment from Toyota.

On my vehicle equipped with the UA80F (AWD) and UA80E (FWD) 8-speed automatic transmission got failure without any check engine lights on the panel.

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the message indicating that the engine had overheated was displayed. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the water pump had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered under an Extended Warranty coverage related to the water pump failure. The failure mileage was 53,537.

Subject: Vehicle Safety & Emissions Complaint – Toyota Camry (VIN [XXX] ice of Defects Investigation, I am reporting a safety and emissions defect with my 2019 Toyota Camry XSE (VIN [XXX] ). • [XXX] Techstream confirmed DTC P26CB71 – Engine Coolant Pump Actuator Stuck. • This fault risks overheating, sudden engine failure, and emissions non-compliance. • Covered under CSP 24TE04 and Federal Emissions Warranty, but Seminole Toyota and AutoNation Toyota Winter Park refused repairs and demanded $1,616.46. • Toyota corporate ignored my formal demand and deadline. I request NHTSA investigate, as this issue impacts safety and emissions compliance and could warrant recall action. Attached: diagnostics, CSP letter, invoices, photos, correspondence. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION RE [XXX] T TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Been having an issue for months now and the dealership was absolutely no help.

Component/System failed: The electronic control module (ECM) and related wiring were compromised by a dealer-installed Lojack anti-theft system. The device was spliced into wiring near the airbag system and ECM, causing repeated faults. The component remains in the vehicle and is available for inspection. Safety risks: 1. Wiring near airbags may interfere with deployment. 2. ECM faults risk stalling, loss of power, or emissions failure. 3. Hidden wiring increases short-circuit risk, especially near coolant areas. 4. These conditions place driver and passenger safety at risk. Problem confirmation & inspections: The issue has been reproduced in multiple dealer visits. One Toyota dealer identified the improper Lojack installation as the likely root cause. Service records are available. Warning lamps: Yes. Check engine lights and warning messages appeared within months of purchase and continue intermittently. Summary: The car was sold as a Toyota Gold Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicle, advertised as thoroughly inspected and protected. In reality, it contained an undisclosed modification that created hidden defects, repeated ECM errors, and safety concerns. Concern: The ECM is covered by the 8-year/80,000-mile federal emissions warranty and the 7-year/100,000-mile Gold CPO warranty. Yet Toyota denied my arbitration claim as “ineligible.” If such cases are refused, it means dealers can install aftermarket systems, charge buyers, and avoid accountability. In that situation, the Toyo

I have a code on my car that states " malfunction in the electronic control of the engine, throttle or automatic transmission has been detected". The car stalled while crossing Hwy 231 in Pike County, Alabama and left me powerless in oncoming traffic that was moving at 80+ miles per hour. It finally grabbed some power to let me finish crossing but it was a very close call. I had to have the tires replaced, since that time the tire pressure sensors no longer work. Which to me is unbelievable. The cost for that is $360.00 or probably more from the dealer.

Odometer Fraud. The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. The contact purchased the vehicle from a private seller. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for service for a door latch replacement. The contact was informed of additional repairs that were needed to be performed on the vehicle. The contact later went back to the dealer and inquired about trading the vehicle. The dealer provided the Carfax report to the contact. The contact stated that according to the Carfax report, the latest odometer reading was reported at 297,742. The contact stated that when the vehicle was purchased, the advertisement indicated that the mileage was 112,000. The contact reviewed the Title of the vehicle and noticed that the odometer mileage reading on the Title was 197,742. The seller was not made aware of the issue. The contact attempted to contact the seller, but there was no response.

The contact owns a 2019 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormal humming sound coming from the engine. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was determined that an unknown part inside the transmission had oxidized. The contact was informed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The contact was advised that the engine mounting insulator sub-assembly and the hardware machine rotor for the braking system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The contact stated that in June 2023, the transmission was replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 109,000.

It started happening in the past month. We stopped at a gas station to get gas and after filling up the car doesn't want to start. It does start eventually after 4-5 tries. Then it's ok for a while. On 8/17 it did the same thing except once we put it in park the light engine came on. I cleared the codes and drove it again about 200 miles stopped to get gas and it happened again. I took it to the dealer and they said it might be the battery. I put a new battery and it seemed to be fine until the next day, 8/21. I stopped to get gas and after I filled up it would not start again, except this time the light engine did not turn on. The dealer is not sure what it is. From doing research there was a fuel pump recall for 2018-2020 camrys although my car was not included in it, from looking at the symptoms I have come to the conclusion that it might be a faulty fuel pump.

Car was on freeway on an on ramp going 50 accelerating to 75 when suddenly car’s power converter gave out and car had no power. Prior to this the car worked fine and no issues or warning lights ever appeared related to the problem. This not only puts the driver and their passengers at danger but also the traffic around them. The dealership I took the car to confirmed the torque converter but was unable to pull codes from the odb2, however multiple smaller shops further confirmed that was the issue as well. They also further provided error codes where the official Toyota dealer wasn’t able to

SRS (Supplemental Inflatable Restraint System) (2) DTC Description B1922 Short in Rear Pretensioner Squib (RH) Circuit (to Ground)

I had just gotten off work and turned on my car. I put my seatbelt on and that's when a message popped up on my dash saying "SRS Airbag System Malfunction. Visit Your Dealer". I was a bit concerned and worried and so when I started driving home, it still displayed that message and it started to beep as I drove more. It also makes it seem like my seat belt isn't buckled even when it was. I had gotten it checked out at a mechanic and they say it has to do with the driver seat belt buckle.

2019 Camry se would not accelerate and rpm’s would escalate without making car move. Car has had complete maintenance on a regular basis. There have been no prior lights on or alerts until my son’s car stalled in traffic almost leading to side collision. Once it was plugged up to computer shows faulty transmission (complete transmission failure) and engine coolant bypass valve which I know has a TBS report on yet my local dealership refuses to do anything with it unless they charge me to hook up to their computer first and deny any issues with this car. I have read hundred of others with the same complaint and numerous lawsuits yet Toyota refuses to recall and fix the faulty transmissions in these vehicles. Something needs to be done before someone is killed, as my son could have been when his car stalled in middle of traffic and transmission failed with no prior warnings.

The vehicle is experiencing multiple active safety system failures, severely impacting driver control and passenger protection. The most critical issue is a persistent SRS airbag malfunction warning, along with the system failing to detect that the seatbelt is buckled, even when properly latched. This disables key safety systems such as airbags and seatbelt pretensioners. The vehicle also suffers from delayed or weak braking response, despite having adequate brake pad wear. This is especially dangerous in stop-and-go traffic or emergency braking scenarios. In addition, the adaptive cruise control system intermittently disengages or fails to maintain distance, and the brake hold feature does not reliably hold the vehicle when stopped, causing rollback or unintended movement. These issues are consistent with known failure conditions already documented in the following recalls: – NHTSA Recall 21V-890 – Brake booster vacuum pump failure – NHTSA Recall 19V567000 – Occupant Classification System calibration error However, Toyota has refused to acknowledge these defects in this case because the vehicle does not fall under the original recall VIN ranges. This creates a serious safety concern, as the same defective behavior exists outside the recalled population, and is being left unaddressed. This not only places me at risk of airbag and braking failure, but puts other drivers and pedestrians at great danger due to the potential for system failure during high-risk moments such as hig

The wiper doesn’t operate fast enough in the fastest setting to move the rain from the drivers view in heavy rain. Driver is forced to reduce speed to 40 mph which is dangerous on an interstate. Also, the passenger side wiper pushes the water from 3/4 of the windshield into the drivers view. This is widely discussed on Toyota forums but no motor upgrade is offered that make the wipers move faster. Florida storms require faster settings to see vehicles and the roadway.

Whining noise started a week ago. Whenever I press the gas peddle a whining noise starts and increases as I accelerate. Took it to a Toyota dealer and they are suggesting a total transmission replacement. I have 90000 miles

Driving down the highway fine with cruise control on. Out of nowhere, I saw smoke and I lost power so I started to coast to the side of the road (luckily other drivers hit their brakes when they saw the smoke). After getting the car stopped, I noticed a fluid trail on the road. I had the car towed to a shop where they found that transmission fluid had leaked out and onto the exhaust. They said that is what caused the smoke and could have caused a fire if I didn't shut it down quickly. They also said that's why I lost power, because the transmission didn't have adequate fluid in it anymore. I immediately looked online and see that these transmissions apparently are failing left and right in a bunch of cars, even with way less miles than mine has.

At 55,000 miles - 6 years and 6 months, the check engine light came on and car temp jumped to "off the chart high". The water pump had failed and head gasket had blown.

At 130k miles my transmission went out. A known issue with the 8 speed automatic in the newer Camrys. I brought the car to transmission shop and they told me transmission replacement for my car is on back order and can’t get it for months. This is a known issue with Toyota and no recalls or anything. No check engine light or anything in advance, just simply gave up while on the highway and went into limp mode.

P268115 engine coolant bypass valve I know my daughter received a letter from toyota to her 2018 camry to fix the same issue. But I checked and to my 2019. I have the same issue P268115 in my toyota camry 2019.

Two weeks prior, car began rough idling at stop-lights, intermittently. Then one morning, after refueling, the car sputtered and failed to start. The MIL light came on, with display warnings: “Charging System Malfunction” and Steering Power Low”. Car eventually started and barely made it to Carlsbad (CA) Toyota. DTC code pulled was P0171: “System Too Lean Bank 1”. It was diagnosed with low or leaking high-pressure reading for the high-pressure fuel rail. They replaced all four high-pressure direct injectors. However, idle roughness persisted until they replaced the canister purge valve. Car has only used Costco top-tier fuel. Injectors should not have failed at 47,000 miles; likely defective. Fuel pump was replaced years ago under recall, and I was told that fuel pump pressure was fine.

2019 Toyota Camry VIN: [XXX] Issue: Blown head gasket and required engine replacement Mileage at failure: 116,598 approximately Mileage I am filing this complaint due to a sudden and significant engine failure in my 2019 Toyota Camry. Despite regular service at certified Toyota dealerships only things wasn’t serviced at the dealership was my brakes and tires, and a transmission flush in September 27, 2024. Other than that my recent visit to Bulter Toyota was March 21st 2025 which included a $334.17 maintenance visit in March 2025 and my car was good at the time I was told. Now a month later [XXX] my vehicle experienced a blown head gasket with no prior warning or indication of trouble just a check engine light one day [XXX] it never overheated. The issue was diagnosed on April 21, 2025 at Bulter Toyota. Currently renting a car from Bulter Toyota for $42.00 a day my car has been there for 9days The dealership has stated that the engine must be replaced at a cost of $5,335. Additionally, the technician made a concerning statement suggesting my car “looked like it had been in an accident,” even though the vehicle has never been in any collision. This further raised questions about internal defects or manufacturing issues. Toyota Corporate has been contacted, is currently conducting an internal investigation into this matter. However, I am submitting this complaint to NHTSA to ensure it is formally documented outside of Toyota’s internal review process. This is especially importa

When I accelerate anywhere between 0-55 there is a whining noise that kind of sounds like a jet engine starting up that progressively raises in pitch the faster I go. This noise is only made while my foot is at any position on the gas. Even just the lightest pushing of the throttle will cause this whining to start. The second I take my foot off it’s completely silent. Many people also Toyota technician reports that it is an ongoing transmission issue with the 8th gen Toyota Camrys.

Check engine light went on and the car’s temperature gage started going up rapidly. Pulled to the side of the road and turned the car off. The problem was the electric water pump and Thermostat which I bought at Toyota parts, the car only has 29,090 miles on it.
