Problems with 2004 Toyota Camry Solara ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING

On thursday october 9,2008 i was driving home on i-95 when my 2004 toyota camry solara suddenly began to surge in speed, as i was able to cautiously get over in the median lane when it then shut off, i was able to crank it back up with no problem but as soon as i accelerated it slowed down and i then turned it off, waited a few minutes an turned it back on with no problem. since i was close to my exit and lipton toyotas dealership was right there i took the car in to get checked out, well much to my surprise i am in need of a throttle body a $931.17 part and $13.?? gasket along with $85.00 per hour service fee. now even though my factory warranty ended on the 4 of this month, this viable component is not covered under the extended warranty that i purchased when i bought the car. i have about 42,500 miles on my car and i don't drive it everyday. i am very angry that i have to replace a part that is so costly in such a short period of time, toyota is supposed to be one of the best cars on the road but at this point i feel like i will never purchase another. this is not my first one it is my 3rd one purchased brand new, and my concern is this is the first time ever having a problem like this. so i want to ask you to please look in to this as a defective part issue because when i called toyotas corporate office i spoke with someone who seemed as if she had an attitude like i have some nerve to call and complain about their top notch vehicles. i was reading some blogs about "04 camry throttle body failure" on www.topix.com/forum/autos/toyota-camry/tm6gc5t4dhvfs52cs i think that you will see alot of complaints on this same issue, please check the site. i don't think anyone knows much about your site and that they should file a complaint with you and atleast get the matter at hand looked in to. i am not the only one who has had this problem and i am deeply concerned that others may and just not know what to do except pay for it, if the can afford it. *tr

Charcoal canister failed at 13058 miles. parts and labor under warranty, however, out of warranty cost would have been at about $500. known issue for toyota as service bulletin issued. dealer recommended to purchase extended service plan to cover component after original warranty expires. parts and labor should be covered for this component after original warranty expires as issue is known to toyota and has failed in enough new cars to issue a service bulletin. faulty charcoal canister will cause a no pass on smog check for california and will pollute the environment until replaced. thank you.

2004 toyota solara experiencing stalling or long hesitation when the vehicle's speed is below 25 mph and the consumer attempts to accelerate.*mr this often happens when entering fast moving traffic from entrance ramp onto the expressway. the manufacturer stated that this was a characteristic of the engine and transmission and cannot be corrected. *bf *nm
