 I'm having the same problem with my solara. it hesitates all the time going around corners, highway acceleration is terrible. i talked to toyota about this issue and they are no help. they have posted a bulletin to kind of fix the same issue with the v6 solara, and the camry. they have nothing for the 4 cyl. they keep telling me that the cars transmission is responding the way it should be. something needs to be done about this. i keep taking it back to the dealership for them to reset the transmission back to the factory settings, but that only lasts for a week or two then its back to the hesitating. *jb

 I recently bought a brand new toyota solara 2007 in april 2007. since then i have brought my car to the toyota dealer for more then 5 times in 3 months for the same defect. but they cannot repair it. i realized that the vehicle hesitate on acceleration on all occasion. whenever i make a turn (let or right turn) the car will pause and lost in power, lost of transmission for seconds. the car simply retarded and simply roll on the road without transmission control...whenever i need to step on gas to escape from a situation on the freeway, the car again will pause and hesitate, i regard that the car is retarded. it simply lost in transmission during that short pause, i felt so dangerous on the road with such defaulted vehicle. i read on the compliant from nhtsa and surprise to find that there are so many of the camry owner are facing the same problem. the toyota solara is also a camry breed, hence i think these amount of complaints shoud warrant the government to act against the toyota manufacturer to do a recall and repair. i am very disappointed with toyota, i hope i will not be disappointed with nhtsa to start doing something good for us the consumer with all these complaints. sincerely. *tr
