What is your question?
The problem just started a couple hours ago. The dash is showing drive start control malfunction, a secondary collision brake system malfunction, a pre-collision system malfunction, and check engine light. The car would not accelerate properly when at a stop light. Sometimes won’t accelerate at all/ moves backwards

Hi, I'm one of the auto experts on RepairPal's Car Genius team! Thanks for the detailed description. Those warnings together with the symptoms you described must have be scary and it is definitely concerning. This is usually sign of electronic or drive system issue, possibly involving the engine or transmission control units. This could be caused by something as simple as a low or failing 12V battery (common on modern vehicles and can trigger multiple system errors) or something more complex like a malfunctioning sensor, drive-by-wire system issue, or a major problem with the powertrain. Given everything you have described, I strongly recommend having your Camry towed to a qualified repair shop rather than risk driving it. The car’s onboard diagnostics will have stored valuable trouble codes that a professional can read to pinpoint the issue quickly and get you safely back on the road. If you need any further advice or would like help finding a trusted RepairPal shop in your area or even getting an appointment booked, please feel free to call us at 877-913-1554
