 Description of the problemI have a 2012 toyota camry that i purchased new from the military car sales in ansbach, germany. I first experienced the problem in august 2012 when the car would shift it would shudder. At first i thought it to be a fuel problem but it was not. After a few months it got worse. I was in traffic driving off from a stop light and the car shuddered and did not gain speed and i was almost rear ended until i put the car in the "s" gear setting and manually downshifted toe 2nd for more power. That was the temporary solution while driving in the city. Winter days present more issues. I can't drive the car right now because its getting worse. My problem is that i have presented this problem to my dealer, their management, toyota germany in my local area but no one can seem to figure out the funding issue for the 60/60 warranty (power train). I tried to get it settled before i hit the 60000 mile mark but i needed the car daily for work. I have since arranged for public transportation use and i have parked the car as of today for good. I was told it would cost me $6000 to repair. I have chased this since i took it to toyota ramstein, germany for the initial look. They said they had no idea what the problem was and perhaps it was the trans mission which would cost at least 3500 euros which is about $6000. The issue almost caused me an accident in traffic twice! I found through the army air force exchange car care center. I took the car when i experienced more issues and the tech bulletin is the exact problem i am experiencing. It says in the bulletin that it is covered by the power train warranty 60 months or 60000 miles. I even produced the tech bulletin to the dealer and the mechanics! I have gone to the dealer but to no avail they are not able to help me. They tried but i have not heard from them in over a month. I need a car!!!
