Default Toyotas perfect? Nope. Another recall

Toyota Recalling Camry

The newest edition of the Toyota Camry is being recalled for a problem with the transmission. The problem, Toyota says, involved only a half-percent of Camrys built thus far for the 2007 model year. The new six-speed automatic transmission could lose second and sixth gear during operation. Toyota told Reuters the vehicle still will operate even if the gears are lost, and that the problem usually happens within the first 500 miles of use.<ul><li><a href="http://www.cheersandgears.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7890&amp;st=0">cheers and gears</a></li></ul>
