While slowly driving into a parking lot with a slight downward slope, you gently applied the brakes as you approached a parking block, but the brake pedal sank and didn't hold the car. Your vehicle lurched forward, jumped over the parking block, and stopped at the curb. After shifting to reverse and repositioning the car, everything appeared normal and no damage was visible, though the undercarriage may have been affected. Additionally, since your last service visit for an oil change, a persistent "Maintenance Required" warning message appears each time you start the engine, which the technician did not clear or recalibrate. This may indicate the brake issue or other system problems weren't properly diagnosed or the warning system wasn't reset after service.

Your car is making a grinding noise from the front end when you accelerate, and the dealership has confirmed the transmission is the source. The transmission needs to be replaced, and there are known recalls for this issue on 2021 Camry models. Your dealership is waiting for a remanufactured transmission to arrive on backorder, won't provide a loaner vehicle until then, and won't restart your warranty from zero miles even though you're getting a replacement transmission.
