4T1BE46K27U5962052007 TOYOTA Camry

Vehicle runs low of engine oil quickly. I've gotten oil changes by dealer and always explain i have to purchase oil every 3 weeks to top off. Was told its a leak but I never see oil on the ground where I park.Its been like this since I've purchased the vehicle. The headlights are not bright no matter if i change the bulb or the actual headlight

My 2007 Toyota Camry has a severely melted and sticky dashboard, a known manufacturing defect (Program ZE6). The surface has become highly reflective, creating a blinding sun glare on the windshield that significantly obstructs my visibility while driving, posing an immediate safety hazard. Additionally, the melting material releases pungent chemical fumes (VOCs) in the cabin, causing respiratory discomfort and health concerns. Despite being a documented safety defect, Toyota refused a goodwill repair because the initial warranty program has expired. A safety defect that impairs driver vision should not have an expiration date.

Driver seat belt gets stuck sometimes or sometimes does not want to click not often but pretty randomly. The driver window control panel also started to smoke for 5 minutes the smoke started coming out the whole driver panel door and caused excessive heat. Seems that something burnt it was smelling like burnt plastic .

Twice: once in August and most importantly 09/07/2024 was slowing down to stop at a dry cleaners when the car reved up and accelerated forward. I continued to apply brakes all the way to the floor and couldn’t get it to stop, so ran into the businesses’s van. USAA paidfor repairs to both, but due to fears for my safety and life and those of others, I have not driven it since. I have had it towed for repairs and to be checked by an engineer sent by Toyota.and have had to rent or borrow or pay for rides up until now. The USAA sebt engineer came to check the car but decide the car was fine and Toyota would not offer help with replacement

I purchased my 2007 Toyota Camry brand new. Since early ownership, the vehicle has suffered from excessive engine oil consumption. Toyota acknowledged this issue and performed major engine repairs at a Toyota dealership, including replacing pistons and piston rings under their oil consumption program, but the defect continued. The vehicle continues to consume approximately 1.5 quarts of oil every 1–2 months. This defect affects engine reliability and long-term safety. Despite these repairs, the oil consumption problem was never resolved. I was instructed by Toyota to track the amount of oil I was forced to purchase and was told I would be reimbursed. I complied, but Toyota never reimbursed me. I have an extensive repair history with Toyota. A Toyota dealership technician informed me that my repair history is unusually extensive and described it as a “book” in Toyota’s system. The vehicle continues to consume excessive oil, requiring frequent top-offs that pose a risk of engine failure if not constantly monitored. Toyota has failed to permanently correct a known defect despite repeated repair attempts. I believe this is a widespread defect affecting 2007 Toyota Camry vehicles equipped with the 2AZ-FE engine and request NHTSA review this matter.

The airbag warning light comes on at times constantly and occasionally intermittently. The connection under both front seats has been checked and found secured.

See attached document for complaint.

When I purchased this vehicle there were no problems, no lights on my dash, the trim all matched and was the color blue. Then after having a falling out with some family members I started noticing problems with my HVAC system. It started with antifreeze leaks then id fix it and the next week the radiator hose would be leaking again. I started really keeping track of everything about my car after that. Next I started noticing parts changed and parts missing. My VSC fuse block in the engine bay is completely missing now. Next I started noticing while driving my seat would move without me doing anything. The family member that I had a falling out with is in the HVAC union also. While driving I hear some type of switch click on and a gas smell starting coming out of my vents. Also I noticed after getting an aliment done that someone had adjusted the aliment bolts over night it's very noticable. You can clearly see where someone ran new electric wires for something. I went to the police 3 the mea about the issue but no investigation. Please help.

Contacted TMC and was told a recall WAS performed on my car in 2010 for excessive acceleration. However, after further investigation, I learned there was not ONE but TWO different recalls for SIMILAR circumstances(acceleration) and was not informed whether BOTH were completed. I have had vehicle for approx. 5 years and have intermittently experienced the SAME problem. The last few weeks, it has happened more frequently and is becoming dangerous to drive! Also, I was told, since the ONE recall was completed, TMC declined to address the recent problem. Is there a possibility the FIRST recall was not COMPLETELY SUFFICIENT for both. I hope I can get an answer, as I have run out of options. I don't believe I should have to PAY for something that was supposedly FIXED even 10 years ago! I would, again appreciate any help. Thank you.

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact discovered a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 144,000. It was later discovered that the mileage on the Title was 291,510.

Heard a pop while driving and the side airbag cover doesn’t properly stay in place

ABS and VSC lights on the dash have been flashing on and off for the last few years. They always went off after flashing. 2 weeks ago they both flashed on and the warning message "Check VSC System" came on with a loud buzzing whine. Now they will not go off. The brake pedal pulses back when applied and felt very hard. It took the car a long time to stop which is a safety danger. Took it to an independent mechanic and he diagnosed that the ABS system has failed. He also mentioned that Toyota issued several Customer Support Notices to repair or replace the unit but I did not get them even though I am the only owner and still resides at the same address. He gave me the notices and I went to a Toyota dealer but it refuse to provide any warranty work and wanted to charge me for another diagnosis, stating the notices had long expired.

ALL OF A SUDDEN, ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON INCLUDING: BRAKE LIGHT, CHECK VCS SYSTEM, ABS, ALL OF THE EXCLAMATION LIGHTS, ETC.. IVE BEEN VERY DILIGENT ABOUT THE MAINTENACE ON Y VEHICLE AND HAD THE CODES READ AND RESET, BUT THEY KEEP COMING BACK ON. THE MAJOR ISSUES ARE THE ABS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER EROR CODE & THE ABS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO BREAK. IVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THE MECHANICS ARE SAYING THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. ALSO, THE MIRROR VISOR ON DRIVER SIDE STOPPED WORKING & CONSTANTLY FALLS DOWN BLOCKING MY VIEW. ITS VERY DANGEROUS! PLEASE ADVISE TOYOTA OF THESE ISSUES. IVE ALREADY HAD THE HYBRID BATTERY COMPLETELY REPLACED AND BREAKS & ROUTERS, BUT THE CODES SHOWING ARE: •P0420 and •P1423, •C1391, - Ask about a recall •B1241, •B2784, •B2281, •C2124 THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Engine—was told by dealership that we needed a new motor because of lack of oil in engine - had not seen oil drips or any smoking out of muffler. No lights on dashboard. Only been serviced by dealership. Told us; we needed to keep check and add oil as needed until we decided on a new motor or trade. Either is not a good option because of expense. We are probably going to bite the bullet and have to trade with not being able to get much out of trade because of this. The car is in very good condition, no wrecks and had hoped we were to get more mileage. We keep check and add oil. Know this is just a complaint, but am sure others had same problem.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact had received notification of the Toyota Warranty Enhancement Program – ZE6. The contact stated that gradually over time the dashboard had started peeling and cracking. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact was advised to be patient for the parts to become available. A dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

Excessive engine oil consumption. Penske Toyota of Downey would Not fix my car when I took it in. I received a letter from Corporate Toyota. I also received a letter on the sticky dash board. They replaced the dash board but, they would Not fixed my engine problem. I took their word for it and now I have to check my oil often and keep oil in my trunk. I never get an oil warning light. I just have to make sure by checking it often. Penske refused to fix my car, they told me it was normal for my car to lose oil. I was made aware of both problems back to back by Corporate Toyota but Penske said no. No problem here according to them. So… the problem just got worst and worst over time.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the check engine warning light remained illuminated and there was black exhaust smoke coming from the exhaust pipes. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle had experienced excessive oil consumption. The vehicle was taken to the local mechanic who was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The local dealer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 105,000.

Because of the sticky dash’s glare on the driver side windshield, I could not see the car ahead of me at all. I almost hit a car that was in front of me not because he had braked because we were both still in motion but the glare was directly in my line of vision. I just happened to put my hand up over the glare and saw there was actually a silver car in front of me and I was way to close to it. No accident occurred but it almost did and certainly could have injured me and/or my passengers. This has to be fixed! That scared me to death! I truly had no idea there was a car in front of me as I could NOT see it from the dash’s glare off the windshield.

The problem that I have is the same as the one I years ago. There was a recall on 2007 Toyota Camrys for oil consumption. At the time I waws never getting the maintenance indicator because the engine would run low on oil before I needed an oil change. I am having the same problem again. The car is not leaking oil. It's consuming oil. I now must drive around with extra oil in the trunk in case the oil is low. I have been a Toyota owner since 1986. I have always thought of Toyota as being one of the most reliable cars on the road. I have taken the car to the dealer near me (Toyota South Morrow, GA). Of course they do not want to further investigate this problem further. But I am sure is the problem. My mechanic also agrees that this is likely the problem.? What component failed? Engine / Oil How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The car could stop at any time with engine failure, blown gaskets, etc. The problem is easily reproduce every oil change. Toyota Dealership has reviewed the problem. Now the consumption is so bad I have to check the oil every 2 weeks. The low oil indicator does not come on. Is there another recall possible if this first recall doesn't fix the problem permanently.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the dashboard was fractured and was previously replaced under Toyota Campaign Number: ZE6. The contact stated that the new dashboard was sticky and melting, causing a reflection on the windshield, which reduced the driver's ability to see the roadway. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was not covered under warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 154,000.

I have been in an accident on [XXX] at this location [XXX] . I was driving the Toyota Camry 2007 model car. So my car got with another car. From the accident my front of the car got damaged heavily, even though the airbags didn't deployed. So my chest got hit with steering and had a neck injury INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Hi, In my car VSC light is always on, I got it scan as well but it doesn't show any code for VSC and ABS systems. Toyota dealership also don't give any information about the codes. It's kind of very dangerous to drive with all the lights on the cluster. Thank You

Vehicles dash board is melting. Produces a high shine effect that reflects sunlight into the front glass, effectively blinding the driver. Toyota has acknowledged this in a “warranty enhancement program” but will no longer repair the dashboard as the recall has “expired”. The warranty program had expired prior to me taking ownership of the vehicle. Engine burns oil due to piston assembly manufacturing errors. Toyota has acknowledged this in T-SB-0158-14 but will no longer repair the engine as the recall has “expired”. The recall had expired prior to me taking ownership of the vehicle.

1)BODY- The body of the vehicle (paint) seems to be chipping and/or rusting at an increasingly rapid rate with no known causes. This rusting is causing the value of the car to plummet as I am trying to sell the vehicle. It first appeared in about 2019 and has been getting steadily worse without any way to stop it. 2) SUSPENSION- On every single Toyota I’ve owned (4) the struts wore very quickly and are NOT a cheap fix. I had to at one point, fix them more than once in the same vehicle. I was told by the repair tech that it is a common issue seen in Toyotas. If a strut goes while driving it can cause major safety issues for the driver. 3)WHEELS- The hubcaps more specifically speaking, on every Toyota I’ve owned, have also had an issue maintaining its hubcaps. One rolled off on the highway and nearly caused me to crash as it hit the side of my car and slid under the rear tires and made me slide all over the snowy highway. Luckily there weren’t many vehicles on the road or it could’ve been catastrophic. I also notice that the light for the tire pressure never turns off either. I can fill the tires, empty the tires, it does not matter, the light will never go off.

The dashboard is melting causing a glare in the windshield.

Whenever I start my car I can see a red triangle symbol I think it’s SRS warning light. Then I check my owner’s manual then I find out that it’s SRS warning lights. I don’t know what to do. Please let me know what should I do?

Instrument panel (dashboard) is sticky. Safety issue is sticky dashboard is throwing a glare up on windshield, making it harder to see thru windshield clearly. This happens at any time of daylight. This is a recognized Toyota manufacturing defect. Issue has been confirmed by local Toyota dealer and also Toyota customer service. No other inspection has been done. Problem began about 2018.

i

UNKNOWN The engine simply started cluttering one day and gave in. The car has relatively low mileage. Toyota engines are expected to last > 200,000 miles

The instrument panel goes black while driving in daylight. Seems to be a non issue at night. You can not tell what speed you are traveling, if the car is running hot or how much gas is in the tank. Appears to be a major problem by searching for solutions. Many solutions have already been tried but seems to not fix the issue. Could be dangerous not knowing how fast / slow you are traveling. If you search this issue on [XXX] , you will see many owners have this same issue. I just purchased this car so do not know how long it has been an issue. Previous owner did not disclose this issue to me. I reached out to him but he has not contacted me back. I did buy it as is so there's that.

The Dash is melting causing a glare on the windshield which blocks my vision and is very dangerous.

I was driving my car when suddenly the speedometer started going from 0-60 back and forth, the rpms was all over the place, the brake light came on and stayed on and the lights was going from bright to dim, there was a couple more lights aluminized on my dash. After googling the problem that nearly caused me and my children to crash, there is so many people affected by this same problem in the 2007 toyota camry. Why hasn't this been recalled or class auctioned. Also my dash board is sticky like tar.

My dash board is sticky and uncleanable, making it very hard to see out the windshield at all hours day or night, which could potentially cause a crash. I have also noticed tons of people online with the same problem. This needs to be recalled or class action lawsuit.

My visors exploded in my face on two occasions while I was driving. My dash board is sticky and has a glare that makes visibility harder. An engine oil issue. All these recalls are expired through toyota and they are refusing to replace any of them.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the driver's side sun visor had separated and detached. The contact stated that a new sun visor was purchased online however, the contact was unable to install the part due to a significant amount of dried glue. The contact attempted to scrape off the glue but was unable to remove the glue. The vehicle was taken to an unknown dealer, who made the same assessment and informed the contact that the new sun visor could not be installed. The contact stated that the vision of the roadway and the traffic lights were significantly reduced or impaired while driving on a sunny day due to the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Error code C1391 Multiple warning lights like VSC, brakes, check engine, hybrid system failure. Vehicle has been repaired at Dublin Toyota dealership under recall several years ago and the vehicle has failed again with the same fault.

The ABS brake actuator, part 44510-30270, initially failed in January of 2021 while traveling on the highway from Los Angeles to San Francisco. The VSC (vehicle stability control system) message appeared accompanied by multiple warning lights, followed by severely limited braking ability which endangered my family during high speed traffic on the 5 freeway. I purchased a used actuator on eBay immediately, it lasted not quite 2 years (it's 2023), it has now failed. I recently purchased a new used actuator pump again, and it has failed immediately. There is obviously a design flaw with this part, yet YOU (NHTSA) and Toyota refuse to address it properly. There is no reason why this device has not been recalled other than negligence. You need to reopen this case, and force Toyota to recall this part before someone is injured or worse!

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the dashboard had started melting due to high humidity. The defect had caused a glare and obstructed the view of the driver while driving. Additionally, the surface of the dashboard was sticky to the touch. The contact called the dealer and was informed of an Extended Warranty program related to the failure. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and opened a case regarding the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 147,000.

My ABS isn’t working properly prohibiting me to drive safely. The ABS module had a recall but it had yet to be repaired and replaced. I need help. Thank you!

I was driving along and without warning the speedometer became erratic and then went to zero. As I was moving on a main road (limited access) I could not safely stop right away. Several other items on the instrument panel began to operate erratically. (These other items would not be considered safety items) Before reaching an exit or other safe place the speedometer began to operate again. I got off on a general main street and all seemed OK In a few minutes the problem returned and the speedometer went to zero again after becoming erratic first. I CAN NOT TRUST THE SPEED READING On a regular road or any road I may be driving to fast for some limiting condition or posting and not realize it. i AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THAT OF OTHERS. This has happened several times and then goes away but I can not trust the reading

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed with the accelerator pedal depressed, the vehicle unintendedly accelerated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic; however, the mechanic was not able to determine the cause of the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000.

I'm in love with Toyota. In Brazil I always had cars of this brand, but newer in manufacture. I recently purchased a 2007 Toyota Camry from a third party and at the time of purchase I did not realize the size of the problem. The car as always is excellent. But to my surprise your panel is simply melting. Just tap it and it dissolves in your hand. As it is sticky and sticky in the hot sun, its reflection almost completely covers the front windshield. I need to drive with dark glasses to get visibility. When researching the subject, I realized that this problem is widespread. That all Camry's have this defect. Imagine the danger of those countless drivers driving in poor visibility. It really is a disappointment with Toyota, and I hope they have a solution not only for me, but for everyone, as I consider this a matter of public safety.

The contact had a 2007 Toyota Camry loaner vehicle from the dealer. The contact stated that after the vehicle was stopped at a red light, the contact drove the vehicle at an undisclosed speed when the vehicle experienced unintended acceleration. The brakes seized and failed to stop the vehicle immediately while the brake pedal was depressed. The vehicle drove through an intersection and crashed into another vehicle coming from the opposite direction. The air bags were deployed. The vehicle then crashed into two parked vehicles at another dealer, Appleton Motorcars Sales & Service (1221 W Wisconsin Ave, Appleton, WI 54914), and came to a complete stop. Appleton Motorcars Sales & Service contacted the police, and a police report was filed. The fire department arrived on the scene and helped the contact exit the vehicle. The contact was unaware if a fire department report had been filed. The contact sustained contusions on her chest, right leg, and right hand, as well as severe headaches. The contact later received medical attention. The contact's passenger sustained chest pain and was transported by ambulance to the hospital. The vehicle was towed to an unknown location. The dealer was made aware of the failure and provided the contact with their insurance information. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

The power strip on drivers door to roll up and roll down windows, lock and unlock car is broken. I know there was a recall but I never got that replaced. Toyota of Poway said it’s fine then it broke a year later.

I was driving on a residential street and my brake pedal got stiff and then got soft and I couldn't stop. I pushed the pedal hard and almost hit the car in front of me and then I felt a hard clack and it felt like I was hit or like I hit something. A loud high pitched beep continuously sounded until I turned off the car. All of my dashboard lights came on. And a continuous winding sound is coming from the abs pump.

I recently purchased a used car for my son who is a new driver. He complained to me that there is a bad glare coming from the dashboard that impairs his visibility of the road in front of him. I took the attached picture of the situation and clearly the glare significantly impacts visibility as I can barely distinguish the car just ahead of us. In researching the issue online, I found there was an opportunity for the previous owner to have the dashboard replaced but they did not or were not aware of it and now that timeframe is over. Considering the potential safety issue here, why isn't this a recall item? Is there an opportunity to extend or re-open the replacement window or other action by your agency to address this issue before a serious or even deadly accident were to occur?

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the dashboard was significantly sticky and shiny. The contact stated that the shiny portion of the dashboard was reflecting onto the windshield, impairing the visibility of the roadway, which nearly caused a crash. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist as the Extended Warranty had expired. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

In 2019, one of the Value Springs broke in the engine of 2007 Toyota Camry XLE with 3.5L V6 engine which required the engine to be replaced. The engine had just over 100k miles on it. I am reporting this because I found out that there was a recall on 2005-2008 Lexus vehicle with 3.5L V6 engines.

ABS Brake Actuator failed, this malfunction came out of nowhere, making me unable to stop my car and putting my life at risk. I have not seen any official recall on this from Toyota, but I’ve seen many people have this same specific issues on Toyota forums. The ABS, brake, and slip light came on all at once while my car made a continuous beeping sound. This all happened as my brakes went out.

The dashboard on the car has melted and caused reflection on the windshield impacting the visibility. I was unable to see the road due to the reflection caused by the melting and sticky dashboard on the windshield. My safety is at risk while driving due to the reflection and glare on the windshield. The smell from melting dashboard is also a concern for myself and family including the infant. The car is available for inspection and the concern can be reproduced.

ABS Module failure. This system keeps crashing despite having replaced the issue before. Please force Toyota to do a recall

Had the vehicle progressively speed up at a high rate of speed was not due to the floor mats as that had been fixed along time ago on a recall before . I had to throw the car in neutral and then push the brake and power button for the vehicle to slow down safely ( happened twice ) . Both times not back to back on occasions months in between . Then one day had issues with the brakes and the vehicle not wanting to stop had the issue looked at by certified mechanic said my physical brakes on all sides front and back were visible sound and nothing to be causing the issue I was having . Just the other day started the vehicle as normal it warmed up went thru my day and then my radio still visible but sayin INSERT MAPS DVD ( that’s the only thing it would say or do ) then the vehicle after turning it off says CHECK VSC SYSTEM ( had certified mechanic ) come to home to inspect vehicle for issues ( car no longer showed this on dash) started as normal then next day while driving no brakes red triangle of death came up said CHECK VSC again and brakes failed and I nearly rear ended someone thank god avoided the accident car then shut off ( car restarted then triangle once more immediately shut off ) car starts high idle brakes hard to push on Mechanic says it’s a faulty issue with harness or abs pump and ECM components which may be causing the battery failure I’ve had multiple times and that the vehicle isn’t safe to drive due to this issue .

The dash is very sticky and is putting a glare when driving toward the sun it is so bad you can’t see pedestrians walking on the road.

In June 9, 2016 (NHTSA ID Number: 10111320) Toyota did a Warranty Enhancement Program to extend the warranty coverage for repairs related to cracked and/or sticky/melting Dashboards (Instrument Panels) as a result of heat or humidity. My 2009 Toyota Camry was taken to a Toyota dealership in September of 2016 and the malfunctioning dashboard was replaced. However, the dashboard is still melting. It was replaced with the same defective material.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry equipped with Michelin Tires, Tire Line: Cross Climate 2, Tire Size: 215/60/R16, DOT Number: 1AP4909CX2022. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 MPH, he switched lanes to avoid crashing into another vehicle in front that had stopped abruptly. The contact nearly lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle inadvertently swerved, and the contact felt as if the vehicle was going to flip over. Upon inspection, the contact related the failure to the design of the tires. The contact stated that the tires had no ribs, borders, or lateral grooves; the tires only had a V-shaped design along the tread. The tire store was made aware of the failure; however, the tires were not replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The tire failure mileage was approximately 25. The vehicle failure mileage was approximately 224,000.

I bought my 2007 Toyota Camry in May 2020 with approx. 77,000 mi. On or about 98,775 mi. all of a sudden my car started burning an extremely amount of oil. I would get my oil changed every 6 mo. like clockwork and after oil change just driving between every 900 & 1,200 mi. I am having to add nearly a full quart of oil, thank God I am the type person that checks my fluids periodically or I would have blown my engine! What is the point in me paying nearly $100. an oil change if I have to continuously be buying quarts of oil to be putting in my car every 1,000. miles? Someone told me that 2007 Camrys burn oil due to some kind of issue and that there was a recall around 2015, that all I need to do is take my car to dealership and that they mark something with a red marker or something to this effect and after driving 1,000. mi. that I take the car back to dealership & they check it again, if my car burns slot of o than they suppose to fix the problem! Well, I am tired of paying extreme amounts of money every 6 mo. for oil change and still have to be spending more money for more oil to have to be checking & adding more oil or I will eventually blow my entire engine if I don't! I took my vehicle to Toyota , & they said that the recall has been over yrs. ago? Well, I would imagine that this would be a life or death matter and therefore this particular recall HAS "NO" Expiration DATE! I need this issue resolved ASAP, I do not have over $2,000. to pay out of pocket Please, someone contact me with answers! I now have 114,000 mi.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving, the front low-beam headlights were very dim while activated. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed her that it was a common failure due to the material used to design the headlight housings. The contact was provided an estimate for the repair. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown. The contact stated that the dealer technician would have to remove the entire bumper in order to sand and clean the interior of the headlights.

My car burns oil excessively causing an increased risk for the engine to overheat and stall. This defect increases the risk of a crash and could lead to a fire. With research and by contacting a local Toyota dealership, I learned that this is a known defect of the 2AZFE engine. Specifically, the piston rings and the pistons are defective and known to cause excessive motor oil burning. Although Toyota has offered an extended warranty for this issue, I was informed by the local dealership that the extended warranty is no longer valid for my car because too much time has elapsed. I was never contacted to inform me of these defective engine components or that my car was given an extended warranty. The Toyota dealership states that they will only confirm this defect if we pay their mechanics for the inspection. Excessive oil consumption has been verified by our non-dealership mechanic. My car is available for further inspection.

The dashboard is melting and shiny causing it to look wet and create a dangerous glare on the windshield. When I look through the windshield I see a reflection of the dashboard. This is apparently a known problem for Toyota and I called to report it but they were unconcerned and will not repair.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the oil level warning light illuminated. The contact checked the oil level and became aware that the vehicle had no oil in the engine. The contact added oil and took the vehicle to the dealer. The contact was informed that the engine was consuming an excessive amount of engine oil and that TSB-0030-15 had expired. The manufacturer was contacted and confirmed that the service bulletin TSB-0030-15 had already expired. The failure mileage was unknown.

The 2007 Toyota Camry has a manufacturing defect related to sticky/melting dashboards as a result of heat or humidity. Toyota sent me a warranty notice for an extension for 10 years from the date of first use of the vehicle, which they determined was the date that I purchased the vehicle on July 31, 2007. In 2013, I took the vehicle to a Toyota dealer, however, they refused to replace the dashboard because, in their opinion, it was not sufficiently compromised. However, now, years later, the dashboard has become very sticky and reflective. It produces a glare into the windshield, impairing vision, which is now a safety issue due to the manufacturer defect. This defect could cause serious injury and death. On August 5, 2022, I appealed to Toyota customer service for them to replace the dashboard. I emphasized the safety issue. However, a Senior Representative declined to make an exception. I then wrote to [XXX], CEO of Toyota Motor North America to ask for his help (see attached letter). I asked him to personally authorize the dashboard replacement and reply to me directly. Almost two months later, I have not received any communication from him. Moreover, on October 4th, I called Toyota customer service to follow-up on my letter. I was told that [XXX], Executive Office Administrator send me an email on September 1st asking for the best time to contact me. I never received this email, neither in my inbox or in my gmail spam folder. That same day, I called [XXX] and left a detailed voice message. I have called him several times since then, each time leaving a message on his voicemail. He has deliberately refused to return my phone calls. I am appalled that Toyota and its CEO does not take safety issues seriously. I kindly ask you to either contact Toyota on my behalf to have them replace the dashboard, or to issue a recall of all 2007 Toyota Camry's due to a manufacturer defect that can result in serious injury or death.

The dashboard of my Camry gets a sticky gloss when the sun is shining. The reflection from the glossy dashboard is reflected onto my windshield making driving hazardous whenever the sun is shining or if the weather is hot. I have to cover the dashboard with a towel to keep myself and other drivers safe because it is very difficult to see through the glared windshield. Dealer was contacted and I was told a recall was sent (about six years ago) but it never arrived to my home. You report regarding recalls, which I accessed today, says there are no unrepaired recalls for my vehicle. I am at risk, my passengers are at risk and every other driver on the road are at risk due to this well known, documented flaw in the 2007 Toyota Camrys.

Transmission downshifts and accelerates without pressing the pedal. At times difficulty pressing pedals and then abruptly accelerates. Also, downshifts and slows down without breaking making it dangerous on the highway. Happens all the time. Everyday. Reading all the complaints about transmission. Criminal!!! it has not been recalled.

On the dashboard there is “check VSC system” and then the ABS and brake symbols. Took it at the Toyota dealer for a diagnostic and said brake actuator needed to be replaced.

Dash is sticky seems like it’s bleeding the glue is super shiny and is a road hazard Please help!

Dashboard is too reflective, has melted and is incredibly sticky. This has resulted in a glare off the windshield that shines back into the drivers eyes and compromises visibility.

when driving both of ABS & Break dashboard warning lights are on, RPM meter will go up & down, temperature gage is down. Unable to be certain the vehicle safe to be operation.

Interior structure problem re: dashboard. My 2007 Toyota Camry LE sedan has just over 40K. This is a one-owner 4 door sedan. I bought this as "new" at Venice Toyota in FL on 3/29/07. I moved back to RI in 8/2007. About 2018, while cleaning the inside, I noticed that the dashboard seemed sticky. I had a dog and couldn't get the dashboard clean. I've tried several times to clean it (including some gel that's supposed to work) but everything sticks to it. I just found out where I can report it or I would have done this sooner. I had looked up my auto when I was checking for any outstanding recalls. I've had 2 minor recalls fixed. Reading further, others had the same problem, had contacted dealers about a recall which supposedly had gone out but it didn't. Toyota won't acknowledge the problem nor will the dealers. I am faithful about maintenance but the dashboard is disgusting. I also noticed that others have the same complaint and some are from South Florida as mine is. When is Toyota going to address this problem? It's not just 2007 Camrys - it's many models and years. There must be something they can do - it's their problem and they need to address it. Thank you.

Vehicle was detailed at Toyota of San Diego. The dash board became very sticky/gummy when exposed to sun. This causes a problem when driving because the sticky imagine from the dash board shines on the window and distorts your view. Toyota of San Diego sold to Norm Reeves of San Diego. The service department mentioned Toyota knew about the problem but the time has expired to replace the dash. My mom did not receive any notification from Toyota. The car has 20,000 miles and is occasionally driven. My mom is 97 and I have just started to drive her car. Viewing out the front window is hazardous.

I sent a complaint about my dashboard melting, over two years ago and complained to the dealer ship with no help, they told me my warranty expired a week before the recall. They said it would cost me right at $ 1100.00 to repair, I told them that's not fair for me to pay for there mistake I can't afford that, the way the economy is going. I beg for help before and no one listen, so lam pleasing again. God I hope someone hear me this time.

I'm submitting this, as I've been dismissed by Toyota Corporation with my concerns. I purchased this car from an individual. I did not realize the magnitude of visibility issue with the glare from the dash. I asked at the time about the shiny and sticky dash, and the owner stated that year of Toyota Camry had defective dash that melted, therefor the issue. When I'm driving, the glare causes me not to be able to see clearly. I called Toyota Corporate office and was told it's not a safety issue although I explained in detail about the serious visual problem. Because the previous owner did not take care of the recall on this, I was told it's expired and nothing they will do. I told the man that it shouldn't have an expiration as it truly is a safety hazard! The glare was really bad one day that I couldn't see the traffic lights, etc. without leaning down and over to the middle. I realize I purchased this car used, however Toyota should honor the safety issue recall no matter when. The dash obviously was a major defect! I was told I could buy a carpet piece to go over it, which I do not want to do. I should not have to alter the interior look, plus I think it's totally tacky! Please let me know if there is anything you can do to help me get this dash replaced by Toyota. I couldn't upload video as the file is too large. The pictures give you somewhat of an idea of the safety issue. Thank you for your time!

The front dash assembly is melted over time and is so bad I cannot see out the front windshield. I told the dealership that I believe this was a recall and they said it was but that the specific job for that expired ? I didn’t know recalls expired. They are willing to fix the current situation with the current system failure of the over heating window switches but a major problem is the visibility up front. I have to wear sun glasses just to see through that horrible glare from the melted dashboard. Also not sure if their is any suspension issues with my 2007 Toyota Camry. The steering wheel shakes some and I’ve purchased new tires wheels and some rotation balance and alignment and no additional work or parts where needed to fix that problem. The alignment did reduce some steering wheel shaking but it’s getting worse again. Any help would be appreciated and if we could get the Dealership to fix the front dashboard that would be phenomenal. Thank you.

My abs pump failed causing my brakes to lock up and totaled my car

My brake pedal when depressed, when stopped, makes a loud noise. My car cycles a buzzing sound often, even when the brakes are not depressed. My warning lights : check VSC system, ABS , warning triangle, a circle with and exclamation point and brake, all are continuing to light up on my dash. I took it to the dealer. Code C1391 (ABS ACRTUATOR INTERNAL FAILURE). This is serious and can cause my brakes and steering control to fail. The manufacturer warranty has expired.

Was driving an it made a noise then the brake light abs light an vcs light came on at the same time an I see on here where some people have the same problem with the same car so what do I need to do about it

Abs module is making a lot of noise at all time while vehicle is on and now it’s harder to brake abs modules is failing.

The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 170,000.

Driving around a curve in the highway at about 50 MPH. Truck came into the lane. Driver panicked and pulled to the edge of the lane, lost control of the car. Car spun and both the front end and back end hit a concrete barrier. No airbags deployed. Impact hard enough to lose both fenders and unable to open two of the doors.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, the vehicle independently lunged forward while his foot was on the brake pedal and shifting gears without warning. The contact also stated that the failure would occur upon attempting to park the vehicle also while his foot was on the brake pedal and shifting gears. The contact stated that the failure was random and that the RPM's would rev up during the failure. The contact stated that upon his own investigation and inspection of the vehicle, he linked the failure to a worn throttle position sensor. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

brake pedal is hard to press, speed odmeter does not work, safty belt warraning light does not work, ABS dash light stays on.

My car has a mileage of about 178K and just recently got a "Check VSC System" which apparently affects brakes and also manages stability in case of hazardous road conditions. Across the internet, people also have reported the same issue and in some cases, people have had brakes locking up once this warning came up. Per a recall from Toyota, this is being fixed by the manufacturer only within a certain date and mileage and I dont fall into either of these criteria. The part itself is very expensive to afford right now...would be appreciative if the manufacturer can provide a way to fix this for a nominal cost or for free.

On July 11, 2021, my husband and I were driving to a location not far from our house, on a state road with a 45 mph speed limit, when "Check Hybrid System" and "Check VSC System" warnings began alternately appearing and I lost acceleration. I turned on my hazard lights and was eventually able to pull off on the side of the road. I turned off all power then restarted, at which point the engine resumed working and we were able to continue driving, but the "Check Hybrid System" and engine light warnings remained on. We were able to reset the computer system by disconnecting the negative terminal of the auxiliary battery (which had been replaced a few months ago) for ten minutes, but I travel over 700 miles at least monthly to take care of my elderly blind father, and I don't want this to happen while I'm driving on I-95, when it's much more likely to result in a serious accident or fatality.

Toyota Camry 2007 has a sticky or melting dashboard issue and is impacting visibility when driving in sun. The dashboard shines and reflects on the windshield and impairs visibility. Toyota says their extended warranty to fix this issue is over however the vehicle has been serviced at dealerships multiple times and never was the recall / safety issue was reported to me. I would appreciate if someone can contact Toyota and ask them to fix the issue for vehicles that are still on the roads especially in the south where is blazing hot.

I own a 2007 Toyota Camry Solara with less than 70,400 miles. It’s up to date on maintenance and is garaged. In December 2020, while garaged, my entire dashboard cracked without warning. After researching the condition, I learned that hundreds of Camrys and Solaras were affected and that Toyota replaced some dashboards under an extended warranty program… one such ZE6 program expired in August 2020. I was not notified. Despite the tremendous safety issue (the entirety of the car’s electronics sits beneath the dashboard including the airbags which, if deployed, can hurl dashboard pieces throughout the interior and blind and disfigure driver and passengers alike). Incredibly, neither Toyota nor NHTSA has issued a recall. Toyota Corp/dealership will do nothing at their expense. I Iive in fear that if my car is bumped or tapped, I’ll be maimed by flying dashboard debris; this puts my passengers and pedestrians at risk as well. Please help me get my dashboard replaced before something unthinkable happens. Thank you.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the dashboard was extremely hot and had started melting. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and it was determined that the dashboard needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The contact also stated that a quart of engine oil needed to be added each time the vehicle was refueled. The contact took the vehicle back to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing unknown engine repairs. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired however, the abnormal oil consumption persisted. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.

I first noticed a year ago that the dashboard was not looking right, but this year, approximately Mid May, the dashboard has become sticky and when the sun shines there is now a glare in my windshield, making visibility near impossible. It is hard to tell if there is a pedestrian/biker on the sides of the road or another vehicle in front of me. I did not receive any notice of this problem from the manufacturer. A dealer in my area said there is nothing he can do for me; however, he did give me the phone number for the Texas headquarters. I spoke with a gentleman named Cue (sp) who then put a senior supervisor on the phone. They, too, will not do anything..."there was a warrantee extension notice sent out in 2015 which expired in 2017". I did not receive it. They will only refund up to $250 for a dash cover. This should have been a recall, as I am sure that I could not be the only one that was omitted from their mailings.

Drivers side sunvisor failed and broke off while driving. Visor fell thru drivers field of vision and distracted driver.

Excessive oil consumption

The dashboard melts. I went to toyota representatives many time and they didn’t help. It is really dangerous when the reflection of the melted dashboard blinds the driver.

I had a rollover accident in my Camry on 5/13/2021. My brakes locked up which sent me into a spin and then eventually flipping over an embankment. Only one of my airbags deployed and it was the passenger door airbag. The rest of the airbags did not go off. Yes the vehicle is still available for inspection. My safety was put at risk because of the brake malfunction and subsequently because of the airbags not deploying in the manner they are aupoosed to. I rolled the vehicle I'm sure the manner in which h I wrecked would have caused all airbags to deploy. No I never seen a brake or a airbag light on my dashboard. No one else has inspected the vehicle components other than an insurance claims rep to determine my vehicle is a total loss. I'm unsure on who I could have look at it without compromising the integrity of the findings. The brakes however were worked on by jd byrider a week and a half before the accident. They changed my rotors.

There was a previous recall on this vehicle for the dash melting and becoming sticky. I learned of this recall after purchasing it and would appreciate it if the recall was still honored. At least if half the expences covered for the manufacturer mistake.

SECONDARY WARRANTY... DISCUSSED WITH A SERVICE ADVISOR PRIOR TO THE "2015 WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT". I WAS TOLD NO RECALL, NO LIABILITY. BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT A RECALL TOYOTA MOTOR CORP IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE STICKY DASH RESULTING FROM HEAT OF SUMMER AND WINTER HEATING WHICH CAUSES EYE, THROAT, LUNG IRRITATION, CLOUDING GLARE OF WINDSHIELD AND EYEGLASSES. THE CLOCK MOUNTED ON THE DASH HAS A CLOUD OVER THE PLASTIC COVER MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO READ AS WELL AS PLASTIC COVER OVER DOME LIGHT.

MELTING DASHBOARD CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEM WITH REFLECTION IN WINDSHIELD

THE CAMRY STARTED REVVING UP TO 1500 RPM AT STOP LIGHTS OR WHEN PULLING INTO PARKING SPOTS ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS, LOCAL DEALER COULD NOT FIND ISSUE AFTER HAVING CAR FOR A MONTH. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SAVED CODES, I JUST NOTICE THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE DROP WHILE ITS DOING IT SO ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT HAPPENS EVERY OTHER DAY USUALLY WHEN WARM OUT. I AM TOO SCARED TO HAVE MY WIFE DRIVE THE VEHICLE ANYMORE AND CANNOT JUSTIFY SELLING. HOPEFULLY TOYOTA WILL HELP FIGURE THIS OUT. DEALER REPLACED FUEL PUMP BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. ALSO HAS HARD STARTING ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK, WILL ALWAYS START ON THE THIRD TRY IF NOT IMMEDIATELY.

AROUND 1,200 MILES, I HAVE TO ADD 1 QUART OF ENGINE OIL. DASH BOARD IS MELT AND STICK

MELTED AND STICKY DASHBOARD SIGNIFICANT GLARE THAT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR

MY CAR 2007 CAMRY LE BURNS OIL TOO MUCH. THERE'S NO OIL LEAKAGE ON THE MOTOR OR GROUND, AND IT DOESN'T SMOKE. I'VE CHANGED THE OIL A MONTH AGO, BUT THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON. HOW CAN IT PASS A SMOG CHECK, AND I'M SCARED MY CAR WILL OVERHEAT DUE TO THE ENGINE BURNS OIL MORE THAN A QUART IN 1000 MILES

VSC CHECK SYSTEM IS ON AT ALL TIMES AND MY CAR DOESN'T START AT ALL.

CAR HAS ABC LIGHT ON VSC SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT, HARD BREAK, BREAK STOP WORKING NOISE SOUND. REPLACED IN 2014 AND NOW DEFECTIVE AGAIN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING THE LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TOYOTA CARLSBAD PARTS & SERVICE DEPARTMENT (6020 AVENIDA ENCINAS, CARLSBAD, CA 92011) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 101,775.

NEITHER THE MANUFACTURER NOR A DEALER WERE NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 166,000.

THE AUTO WAS ORIGINALLY KEPT YEAR ROUND IN MINNESOTA. WE HAVE A PLACE IN ALAMO TX 2 YEARS AGO WE DROVE THE CAMRY DOWN TO TEXAS AND FLEW BACK TO MINNESOTA. WE LEFT THE CAR IN A GARAGE. THE FALL OF 2020 IS WHEN WE DISCOVERED WE HAD A STICKY DASH. WE CALLED TOYOTA IN PHARR TX THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS BUT THE TIME HAD EXPIRED FOR US TO GET IT FIXED UNDER THE RECALL ABOUT 2 YEARS AGE. BECAUSE THE CAMRY WAS IN MN FOR THE MAJORITY OF ITS LIFE, THE PROBLEM WASN'T DISCOVERED UNTIL THE FALL OF 2020, 2 YEARS AFTER THE REBATE EXPIRED. THE TECHNITION AT PHARR TOYOTA SAYS THAT HEAT AND HUMIDITY CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THUS THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY IN TEXAS FOR 2 YEARS BROUGHT THIS PROBLEM TO LIGHT 2 YEARS AFTER THE REBATE EXPIRED. THE DASH IS STICKY AND ITS A SHINY REFLECTIVE SURFACE THAT RELECTS LIGHT, HAMPERING VISABILITY WHICH IS DANGEROUS. WE REQUEST TOYOTA FIX OUR DASH.

LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE TOO DIM TO SEE AT NIGHT.

AT MOTION CAR START TO MAKE A NOISE AND THE ABS AND VCS LIGHTS APPEARED. THEN SUDDENLY THE CAR STOPPED. IT HAPPENS A COUPLE OF TIMES WHILE IS IN MOTION.

BRAKES GAVE OUT WHILE ON FREEWAY. EXTREMELY LIMITED CAPABILITY TO BREAK IT TOOK SEVERAL SECONDS FOR CAR TO STOP.

AS SOON AS I DROVE THIS CAR OFF THE LOT, THE "TIRE BALANCE" LIGHT CAME ON. THE TIRES WERE LOW SO I PUT AIR IN THEM AND THE LIGHT IS STILL ON. THE FRONT BUMPER SKIRT SCRAPES ON EVERY DIP IN THE ROAD IT SEEMS, SOUNDING HORRIBLE. THEN, IT GOT CAUGHT ON A PARKING STOP WHICH LOOSENED THE SKIRT SO IT NOW HANGS EVEN LOWER AND SCRAPES BOTTOM OVER EVERY CRACK IN THE ROAD.

DASH IS CRACKED, STICKY, AND MELTS IN THE HEAT. MAKES THE DASH SURFACE SHINY & REFLECTIVE - HARD TO SEE IN SUNNY CONDITIONS. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURERS' DEFECT DUE TO CHEAP PLASTIC BEING USED.

ABS LIGHT IS ON, SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING AND CAR WILL STOP RUNNING WHILE BEING DRIVEN. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY.

DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT SUN VISOR DOES NOT STAY IN THE UPRIGHT STOWED POSITION. IT DROOPS DOWN AND OBSTRUCTS VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING.

HAD ACTUATOR ON 2007 CAMRY HYBRID REPLACED AT 82,000 MILES AGAIN AT 127,000 MILES AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN AT 154,000 MILES AND TOYOTA WILL NOT ASSIST WITH THE $1600.00 THE DEALER WANTS TO REPLACED THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART FROM THE FACTORY.

MELTING DASHBOARD.TOYOTA WAS ORDERED BY COURT TO REPLACE AND THEY DID BUT NOW MELTING AGAIN WHICH MEANS COURT ORDER NOT REPLIED WITH AS PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. TOYOTA WILL NOT DO ANYTHING FOR MELTING AGAIN ISSUE. THIS IS NOT ONLY HORRIBLE BUT A SAFETY ISSUE AS VISABILITY IS HAMPERED. NEED YOU TO ADVISE TOYOTA THEY MUST COMPLY WITH COURT ORDER SINCE MELTING AGAIN MEANS NOT COMPLIED WITH PREVIOUSLY

DRIVER SIDE VISOR FLAPS DOWN TO FOREHEAD LEVEL WHEN STATIONARY. FLAPS DOWN POINTING DOWN WHEN IN MOTION GOING OVER BUMP. VISOR DOES NOT STAY TUCKED IN ITS STOW AWAY POSITION. CAUSED INJURY TO RIGHT TEMPLE GETTING INTO THE CAR. CAUSED FOREHEAD INJURY AT A SUDDEN STOP. DEALT WE REFUSED TO REPLACE OR REPAIR. TOYOTA CLAIMS THE THE RECALL ENDED IN 2018 SO THE PART IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR REPLACEMENT.

MELTING DASHBOARD WHICH COURT ORDERED TOYOTA TO REPAIR AS RULED MFG DEFECT. TOYOTA REPLACED AND NOW MELTING AGAIN AND TOYOTA WAS ORDERED TO AGAIN REPLACE AS RULED THAT BECAUSE MELTING AGAIN ORIG ORDER NEVER COMPLIED WITH.TOYOTA WILL NOT. THIS IS NOT ONLY HORRIBLE BUT A SAFETY ISSUE AS MELTING IN YOUR HANDS AND CAUSING VISABILITY PROBLEMS.

CAR CONTINUES TO SLIP AND REV UP DURING MANY UP-SHIFTS OR WHEN SLOWING DOWN. AFTER SOME TIME THAT IT HAS WARM ENOUGH IT WILL STOP DOING IT, BUT IT ALWAYS SLIPS AND REVS UP BETWEEN THIRD AND FOURTH SHIFT. ITS BEEN LIKE THIS FOR FEW YEARS NOW, BUT NO ONE HAD SHOWED UP WITH A RIGHT SOLUTION.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING/ STICKY. IT'S A BLINDING HAZARD DURING THE DAYTIME ON A SUNNY DAY!

THIS PAST SUMMER (2020) THE DASH OF MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY GOT VERY STICKY AND MADE A REFLECTION ON MY WINDSHIELD MAKING VISIBILITY IMPAIRED WHICH IS A HUGE HAZARD. YOU CANNOT SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. I RESEARCHED IT TODAY AND FOUND OUT TOYOTA EXTENDED ITS WARRANTY FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT IT EXPIRED IN 2017. MY PROBLEM DIDN'T START UNTIL 2020. I WANT THE NATIONAL TRAFFIC HIGHWAY SAFETY ADMINISTRATION TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND REQUIRE TOYOTA TO DO A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM.

ABOUT A YEAR AGO, I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS NOT FIRM. IT DENTED VERY EASILY. THIS YEAR, I DID NOT DRIVE MUCH, BUT WHEN I DID, THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND SHINY, REFLECTING IN THE WINDSHIELD, MAKING VISIBILITY DANGEROUSLY INSUFFICIENT WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM IS MUCH WORSE ON SUNNY DAYS. DASHBOARD CAN NOT BE CLEANED, SINCE IT IS GOOEY. PRECISE DATE IS HARD TO SAY, BECAUSE OF COVID RESTRICTIONS AND CAUTIONS.

TRANSMISSION FAILS AFTER DRIVING IN REVERSE. GEARS CAN BE CHANGED WITH THE LEVER BUT TRANSMISSION DOESN'T ENGAGE THE GEARS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS OFF AND NO OTHER INDICATORS ARE PRESENT.

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM SCHOOL MY MOTOR THREW A ROD DUE TO LACK OF OIL. I HAD NO WARNING WHAT SO EVER BEFORE THIS HAPPENING. NOT TO MENTION JUST GOT MY OIL CHANGED 1 MONTH PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING

MY CAR HAS BEEN DRIVING NORMALLY. I KEEP UP WITH MAINTENANCE. I TURNED ON THE CAR AND STARTED DRIVING LIKE NORMAL. NO LIGHTS WERE ON. AS I GOT ON THE HIGHWAY THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON. IT HAS NOT TURNED OFF SINCE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD MELTED AND EXPERIENCED CRACKING AND SEPARATION. THE CONTACTED INDICATED THAT AFTER A TEN-YEAR-OLD CHILD TOUCHED THE MELTING DASHBOARD, RESIDUE FROM THE DASHBOARD WAS PRESENT ON THE CHILD'S HAND. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH CAME TO A RED LIGHT. SUDDENLY THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS VERY SOFT AND DIFFICULT- STOPPING ABILITY WITH GREAT PRESSURE APPLIED AND LONG DISTANCE TO STOP- BUT ABLE TO STOP. THEN A LOUD BANG AND THE PEDAL WENT TO NORMAL. VSC CODE APPEARED IN MIDDLE OF DISPLAY AND BRAKE TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON.

I HAVE PROBLEM FOR REAR SEAT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR HANDLE FROM INSIDE IS NOT WORKING AT ALL

WELL WHEN I DRIVE IT LOSES POWER AND ALSO BUNS A LOT OF OIL AND GAS AND LATELY IT BEEN SHAKING A LOT WHEN I DRIVE IT I MADE A TUNAP TO IT BUT IT SEEMS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM

BRAKE ACULATOR MALFUNCTION DRIVING ON HIGHWAY BRAKE WOULDN'T STOP

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IT GETS WORST EVERYDAY

THERE IS A NOISE FROM SOMETHING LOOSE THAT I HAD CHECKED OUT A COUPLE TIMES WITH NO SUCCESS. IT COMES FROM THE BACK END OF CAR NEAR TRUCK AREA AND SOUNDS LIKE A LOOSE MUFFLER OR A KNOCKING/VIBRATING MANIFOLD WHEN DRIVING OVER BUMPS OR A ROUGH SURFACE. THE NOISE WASN'T AS NOTICEABLE WHEN I GOT IT IN 2010, BUT HAS BECOME MORE NOTICEABLE OVER THE YEARS. THE MAINTENANCE AND CAR IS WELL CARED FOR.

THE TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR IS ALWAYS ON, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS. AFTER HAVING TIRE PRESSURE CHECKED THINGS ARE USUALLY OK FOR A DAY OR TWO AND THEN THEY ARE BACK TO PRESSURE SENSOR ILLUMINATING. THIS IS A VERY COMMON AND KNOWN PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA AND LEXUS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE 2010 WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS AS PURCHASED.

ENGINE CONSUMES 3 TO 4 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 500 TO 700 MILES

THERE HAS BEEN OTHER TIMES WHERE I HAVE LEFT WORK N MY CAR SWITCHES FROM BATTER TO GAS N IT SPEEDS UP BUT THIS TIME WAS DIFFERANT N MUCH FASTER IN SUCK A SHORT DISTANCE

MY DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND SHINEY CAUSING A VERY DISTRACTING GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD, MAKING IT VERY HARD TO SEE ON SUNNY DAYS AND AT NIGHT.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY BURNS A LOT OF OIL. IF I WAS TO DRIVE FROM S.C. TO N.Y.C. AFTER DRIVING 600 MILES MY CRANK CASE IS EMPTY I WOULD HAVE TO ADD FIVE QUARTS OF OF TO CONTINUE ON MY JOURNEY. IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES I WOULD DRIVE 1200 MILES AND BURN 2 AND A HALF QUARTS OF OIL.

AT LESS THAN 80,000 MILES THE ABS SYSTEM FAILED. WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER IT. WE REPLACED THE UNIT, BUT LAST WEEK THE VSC WARNING LIT UP AGAIN. THE ABS SYSTEM HAS FAILED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE NOW WAS 122,226 MILES.

CAR HAD VSC SYSTEM REPLACED DUE TO RECALL A FEW YEARS AGO. HAVING ISSUES AGAIN WITH VSC SYSTEM LIGHT COMING ON, ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, THE SPEEDOMETER AND ALL OF THE GAUGES STALLED OUT WHILE THE CAR WAS STILL RUNNING. THE CAR GAUGES CAME BACK ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES, PRESENTLY THE GAUGES ARE TAKING A LONGER TIME TO COME BACK ON, IN ADDITION WHILE THE GAUGES ARE OFF THE AIR CONDITIONER GOES OFF AS WELL, WHEN ALL THE GAUGES COME BACK ON THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON. WE ARE AFRAID TO TAKE THE CARE OUT OF TOWN BECAUSE WHEN THE GAUGES GO OFF THE CAR IS HARD TO STEER. THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN EVERY TIME CAR IS DRIVEN.

MY CAR IS BURNING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL WHILE DRIVING.

CAR NO LONGER GOES IN ECO MODE. WHEN DRIVE CAR IT WILL COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. WHEN BACKING UP AND SOMETIMES GOING FORWARD THE WHEELS VIBRATE AND DON'T MOVE LIKE THEY ARE LOCKED.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE AND TOYOTA WON'T REPLACE THE DASH NOW BECAUSE THEY SAY THAT THE REPLACEMENT PERIOD IS OVER NOW HOWEVER I'M MILITARY AND THIS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DEPLOY. I HAVE TRIED CALLING THEM HOWEVER THEY DON'T HAVE ANY ANSWERS FOR ME. THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP.

WHILE DRIVING ACROSS NEBRASKA (POSSIBLY JUST INSIDE WYOMING) HEADING TO COLORADO ON SUN JUNE 29TH, ON I-80 (VERY LONG, 80MPH SPEED-LIMIT HIGHWAY), MY CAMRY WITH 215,000 MILES SUDDENLY GAVE A 'CHECK HYBRID ENGINE' CODE, WHICH CAUSED THE GAS-PEDAL TO BE UNRESPONSIVE. THE CHECK ENGINE SYMBOL ALSO CAME ON. THE ELECTRONIC 'TRIP INFORMATION' DATA-GRAPHIC SHOWED MY HYBRID BATTERY WAS DOWN TO ONE PINK-LINE SUGGESTING LOW-POWER IN THE HYBRID BATTERY. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER SMOOTHLY. OVER THE COURSE OF TWO HOURS WAITING FOR A TOW-TRUCK THAT NEVER ARRIVED, I TURNED THE VEHICLE ON/OFF A FEW TIMES TO VERIFY THE ON-BOARD GPS FOR OUR LOCATION (ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS WITHIN THE VEHICLE STILL WORKED). AT AROUND THE TWO HOUR WAITING-MARK, WHEN I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON, THE 'CHECK HYBRID ENGINE' ALERT AND THE CHECK-ENGINE SYMBOL BOTH DISAPPEARED, & I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE THE VEHICLE THE ADDITIONAL 50+ MILES TO MY FINAL DESTINATION IN FORT COLLINS COLORADO. I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP IN COLORADO & TWO CODES WERE REGISTERED: POAOF-204 - ENGINE FAILED TO START (?? THE VEHICLE ALWAYS 'STARTED' SO I'M NOT CLEAR ABOUT THIS CODE) AND P3190 - POOR ENGINE POWER. EVEN THOUGH I WAS ABLE TO LIMP THE VEHICLE AROUND FORT COLLINS, THE HYBRID BATTERY WOULD ONLY GET UP TO THREE CHARGE LINES (BLUE), WHICH ISN'T EVEN HALF-CHARGED, BEFORE TRICKLING BACK DOWN TO THE TWO OR EVEN ONE PINK-LINE. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN-TRANSIT ON A CARRIER TRUCK TO MY HOME BACK IN BUFFALO, NY. THE VEHICLE'S ALWAYS BEEN RELIABLE TO THIS POINT, AND I HAVE HAD IT SINCE APPROXIMATELY 23,000 MILES (WHEN I TOOK IT OVER FROM MY FATHER). I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS THE SAME PROBLEM AFFECTING CERTAIN PRIUS MODELS (2011-2015) WHERE THE GAS ENGINE NO LONGER COMMUNICATES/CHARGES THE HYBRID ENGINE. THE VEHICLE PASSED NYS INSPECTION WITH AN OIL CHANGE IN JUNE 2020. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

DASHBOARD IS GETTING SOFT AND SHINY AND PIECES OF IT COME OFF VERY EASILY. IT REFLECTS ONTO THE WINDSHIELD AND MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. *TR

VSC, ABS, AIR LIGHTS ARE ON. MAKES A PEAK SOUND WHEN I START MY CAR. IT STAYS FOR A LONG TIME AND GOES AWAY. DURING THIS TIME BREAK DOES NOT WORK AS NORMAL. FEELS HARD TO PRESS BREAK AND UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR. YESTERDAY WHEN I'M DRIVING SUDDENLY SOUND CAME ON AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR AS I NORMALLY CAN. WHEN I TRY TO PRESS THE BREAK. BREAK DOES NOT APPLY.

DASHBOARD MELT. *TR

I ADJUSTED THE STEERING COLUMN WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN I LOCKED EVERYTHING IN PLACE, THE AIRBAG LIGHT LIT UP. ALL OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL DO NOT WORK. I CAN'T USE THE HORN; TURN THE RADIO ON OR MAKE HANDS FREE CALLS. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE AIRBAG AND IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I'VE LEFT IT ALONE FOR 5 YEARS. I FIGURE WITH THE TAKATA AIR BAG ISSUE I MIGHT BE BETTER OFF. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. THIS PART WAS RECALLED, BUT WHEN I TRIED TO GET IT REPLACED BECAUSE I'D ALREADY PAID TO HAVE THE PASSENGER SIDE REPLACED, SERVICE FOLKS SAID IT WASN'T DEFECTIVE (AND IT WASN'T AT THE TIME). THEN AROUND 2016 THE VISOR STARTED NOT GOING TO THE ROOF AND WOULD HANG DOWN SLIGHTLY. OVER THE COURSE F THE NEXT TWO YEARS IT GOT TO WHERE IT WAS BLOCKING MY VIEW. TOYOTA SAID THE RECALL HAD EXPIRED SO I HAD TO REMOVE THE VISOR. NOW I HAVE TROUBLE IF I'M DRIVING INTO THE SUN. FRUSTRATING PART IS THAT HAD THEY DONE IT WHEN I ASKED ORIGINALLY I WOULDN'T BE IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCE. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT THIS TOYOTA CAMRY AND DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL AFTER THAT THE DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND GETS REALLY SHINEY AS THE TEMPERATURE RISES. THIS CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. AFTER RESEARCHING I FOUND OUT THAT TOYOTA ISSUED A EXTENDED WARRANTY. HOWEVER THEY SAID THAT IT EXPIRED ON 5/31/17 AND THEY CANT DO ANYTHING. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I BELIEVE THAT IT SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THEY SHOULD REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR ONLY HAS 68370 MILES AND HAS A LONG LIFE. I DO FEEL THAT MY LIFE IS IN DANGER WITH THIS KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX. PLEASE HELP!!!!! THIS ISSUE IS ALL OF THE TIME. *TR

THE ABS SENSOR/MODULE HAS GONE OUT AGAIN. I SPENT SEVERAL THOUSANDS IN REPAIRS AND DIAGNOSTICS YEARS AGO FOR THE SAME ISSUE. NOW IT HAS GONE CRAZY AGAIN. THE DASH HAS BEEN REPLACED DUE TO BEING STICKY. THE CAR ITSELF BURNS OIL, WE ARE CONSTANTLY CHECKING AND ADDING TO IT. IT SEEMS SEVERAL HAVE HAD THESE ISSUES AND TOYOTA SHOULD BE FIXING THEM. *TR

I CAN NOT BRAKE THIS CAR, THIS CAR SUDDENLY MOVES FORWARD VIOLENTLY WHEN I URGENTLY PEDAL DOWN TO STOP IT NEARBY OUR DOWNTOWN. THE ABS SYSTEM ALARM APPEARED TOO, SOME NOISE OCCURRED TO ABS ASSEMBLY MODULE. I TOWED THIS CAR TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, BUT TOYOTA REFUSED TO RECALL AND SAID THIS CARE IS OUT OF THEIR WARRANTY SERVICE (IT HITS 13 YEARS OLD AND PASSED OVER 200,000 MILES).I THINK TOYOTA HAD RESPONSIBILITY TO CARE THE SAFETY SYSTEMS. PLEASE KINDLY HELP TO DEAL THIS ISSUE OR ADVISE, THANK YOU SO MUCH. *TR

THE DASH ON THE VEHICLE HAS BECOME EXTREMELY SHINY AND STICKY. IT MAKES DRIVING HAZARDOUS WHEN DRIVING IN THE SUN. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT ANY IMPACT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. *TR

VCS SYSTEM LIGHT ON BRAKE LIGHT WARNING LIGHT ABS LIGHT. *TR

TOO MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION ALSO THE CAR JERKS WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL

THE ABS ACTUATOR WENT BAD WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREE, THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME HARD AND THE CAR DIDN'T STOPPED, ALMOST HITTING ONCOMING TRAFFIC, VERY HAZARDOUS SITUATION.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY COMING FROM THE AIRPORT GIVING A RIDE TO A FAMILY MEMBER AFTER ABOUT 7 MINUTES FROM THE TIME I STARTED DRIVING, THE CAR SHOWED ENGINE SIGN AND IN LESS THAT 5 MINUTES THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED. I HAVE TRIED TO PULL IT TO A SAFE PLACE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, THEN IT STARTED SHOWING SMOKE IN THE HOOD.

CAR IS BURNING 2+ QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES, RESULTING IN 5 QUARTS BURNED OIL PER MONTH. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO CEASE, MAYBE DURING HIGH SPEED, RESULTING IN A FATAL ACCIDENT.

THE PLASTIC PANEL THAT HOLDS THE AIRBAG ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE DOOR) IS EXPANDED AND BENT. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG OR IF THE AIRBAG IS EXPANDING INSIDE THE PLASTIC PANEL AND THEREFORE IS DEFECTIVE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SINCE CAMRY WAS NOT PART OF THE AIRBAG RECALL AS MANY OTHER TOYOTA MODELS.

DASHBOARD IS DANGEROUSLY REFLECTIVE AND FEELS STICKY TO TOUCH. THE GLARE IS BLINDING WHEN DRIVING.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY DASHBOARD IS VERY STICKY AND SEEMS TO BE MELTING. WITH THE SLIGHTEST TAP TO IT, PIECES OF THE RUBBER ON THE DASHBOARD WILL BREAK OFF. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE DASHBOARDS DURING THE TIME I PURCHASED IT BUT BEING THAT I WAS NOT THE OWNER IN TOYOTA'S LOG I WAS NOT NOTIFIED. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA VIA TELEPHONE AND GOTTEN NO RESULTS AND I HAVE WENT TO A TOYOTA LOT AND STILL HAVEN'T GOT ANY RESULTS. ANY AND EVERYTHING IS ABLE TO STICK TO THE DASHBOARDS PUTTING IT AT RISK OF BECOMING HOME FOR MICROORGANISMS AND POSSIBLY CAUSING RESPIRATORY ISSUES FOR ME. I AM NOT ABLE TO DISINFECT THE DASHBOARD BECAUSE EVERYTHING STICKS TO IT. IN THE PAST I WOULD NO DOUBT RECOMMEND TOYOTA TO EVERYONE DUE TO THE FACT THAT MY FAMILY HAS BEEN A LONG TIME SUPPORTER OF TOYOTA BUT CURRENTLY I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO FIX SOMETHING THAT IS A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE.

CAMRY BURNS EXCESSIVE OIL AND NEEDS TOP UP AT FREQUENT INTERVALS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND ENGINE NEEDS FIX

HAVING A REALLY SCARY DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WHILE I'M DRIVING MY CAR ON THE INTERSTATE MY CAR RANDOMLY CUTS OFF IN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING THIS IS SO DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE AND COULD CAUSE A BAD ACCIDENT

IN 2015 I NOTICED I WAS BURNING THROUGH OIL TOO FAST, SO I TOOK MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT COULD BE THE PISTON RINGS (A KNOWN PROBLEM, BUT NOT COVERED), AND THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. FAST FORWARD TO JANUARY 2020, AND I'M BURNING THROUGH 2.5 QUARTS EVERY FILL-UP. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND 'CYLINDER 3 MISFIRE' WAS DETECTED ALONG WITH A BAD SPARK PLUG. I HAD TO SPEND AROUND $400 TO FIX A COIL AND SPARK PLUG BECAUSE THE 3RD CYLINDER HAD EXPANDED AND WAS SPILLING OVER. 3 WEEKS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPENED WITH ME ADDING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1/2 TANK. I WAS TOLD THIS WOULD COST UPWARDS OF $2,000-$3,000 TO FIX. I'VE SEEN THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM, ESPECIALLY WITH THE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AND THIS MIGHT BE DUE TO BAD PISTON RINGS. I WAS FORCED TO GET A NEW CAR THIS WEEKEND BECAUSE OF THIS.

WAS T-BONED ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AT 40MPH AND NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED.. NOT EVEN THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG AND THE WHOLE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW SHATTERED. WAS TURNING LEFT AT A LIGHT WHEN I WAS TBONED.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING, STICKY, SHINY, CREATES DANGEROUS GLARE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 30 TO 40 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND WENT TO THE FLOOR BOARD. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE AND MOVE ONTO THE ROAD SHOULDER. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ROSEVILLE TOYOTA 700 AUTOMALL DRIVE, ROSEVILLE, CA 95661, (916)782-2163. THE DEALER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT SUBJECTED TO EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO THE MODEL YEAR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 170,000.

CAMRY BURNS EXCESSIVE OIL AND NEEDS OIL REPLACEMENT CONSISTANTLY.

WHIE DRIVING THE DASHBOARD IS VERY REFLECTIVE AND BLINDING. THIS IS BECAUSE OF THE STICKINESS SUBSTANCE. IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE NOT HAD A ACCIDENT BUT I DON'T USE THE CAR DURING THE DAY TIME BECAUSE THE SUN IS ALWAYS OUT SHINY IN TEXAS WHERE I RESIDE AND I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A ACCIDENT.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS VERY STICKY. WHILE DRIVING I RECEIVE A GLARE ON MY EYES COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD. VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. I READ MANY COMPLAINTS OF CAMRY OWNERS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. MY CAR IS ALWAYS GARAGED SO IT RECEIVE LESS EXPOSURE TO THE SUN.

MELTED AND STICKY DASHBOARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ADDITIONAL OIL NEEDED TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO INDICATION FROM THE LOW OIL SENSOR OR GAUGE TO WARN OF THE LOW OIL LEVELS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE PERSISTED AND MORE OIL HAD TO BE ADDED BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER A DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED OR INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 159,000.

THE SUN VISORS ARE THE RIGHT AND LEFT OF THE CAR WERE DEFECTIVE AND REPLACED AND THE NEW VISORS ARE ALSO DEFECTIVE AND DO NOT MAINTIAN THEIR POSTIION AS THEY FALL DOWN AND BLOCK THE DRIVERS VIEW MAKING A VERY SERIOUS HAZAED AND PREVENTIVE VISIBILITY TO DRIVE THE CAR. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER CALLED TOYOTA OF ORANGE AND THEY SAY THEY KNOW THE REPLACEMENTS ARE DEFECTIVE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE REPLACMENTS.

MY CAMRY PASSED THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IN MARCH 2015 AT RICK HENDRICK TOYOTA, SANDY SPRINGS GEORGIA. I INFORMED THE TECHNICIAN THAT IT SHOULD OF FAILED BECAUSE I WAS ADDING OIL BETWEEN MAINTENANCE VISITS. IN DECEMBER 2019 MY CAR IS BURNING OIL FASTER THAN EVER. THE DEALERSHIP (RICK HENDRICK TOYOTA IN SANDY SPRINGS GEORGIA ) ADMINISTERED ANOTHER OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I AM STILL DOING THE TEST. HOWEVER, THE MANAGER TOLD ME THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED AND I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY REPAIRS OR ENGINE REPLACEMENT. I AM THE FIRST AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE, IT HAS 145,000 MILES. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND POSSIBLE OVERSIGHT OF TOYOTA CERTIFIED TECHNICIANS.

BURNS TOO MUCH OIL. FRIENDS WITH CAMRYS AND SCIONS BOTH HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT SAME ISSUE. I BARELY MAKE IT TO 2000 MILE MARK AND HAVE TO ADD OIL. EVEN DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS HAVE TOLD ME THAT THESE ENGINES ARE KNOWN TO BURN THROUGH TOO MUCH OIL. IF THEY KNOW THIS AND IT'S A PROBLEM FOR MANY THEN IT SHOULD BE FIXED.

2007 CAMRY HAS BEEN BURNING OIL FOR YEARS AND IS REALLY BAD. HAVE TO ADD MORE THAN A QUART EVERY TIME I FUEL UP. RIDICULOUS

3 DIFFERENT CONCERNS ISSUE #1: WHILE IN MOTION THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COME ON, SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0, OTHER GAUGES GO CRAZY. HAPPENS OFF AND ON THROUGHOUT THE DAY WHILE DRIVING. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC, THEY SAID IT IS THE ABS MODULE GOING OUT, TO FIX IT WITH A BRAND NEW PART WOULD BE $1800. NOT ONLY IS IT DANGEROUS TO NOT BE ABLE TO SEE MY SPEED, ITS A POSSIBILITY MY ABS WOULDN'T KICK IN IF NEEDED. REGULAR BRAKES WORK FINE.

BACK SEAT DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT IS STUCK IN LOCKED POSITION. IT WILL NOT COME UNBUCKLED SO BASICALLY HAVE NO SEAT BELT FOR THAT SEAT

ONGOING ISSUE THE CAR BURNS OIL LIKE CRAZY. I HAVE TO ADD OIL BEFORE MY NEXT OIL CHANGE IS SCHEDULED (EVERY 3000 MILES). THERE IS BLACK SOOT BUILDUP IN THE GAS TANK DOOR AROUND THE CAP. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS AWHILE, JUST NEVER THOUGHT ANYTHING OF IT UNTIL I MET A FELLOW CAMRY OWNER WHO'S 2009 CAMRY WAS RECALLED FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE BUT MINE DOES NOT HAVE THE RECALL. THE BLACK SOOT HAS BEEN THERE BASICALLY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING (2007), IT STARTED NOTICEABLY BURNING OIL AT ABOUT 130000 MILES, THE CAR IS NOW AT ABOUT 163000

ABS ACTUATOR FAILED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. MANY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON SUDDENLY WHILE NORMAL DRIVING. THE LIGHTS INCLUDED SLIPPAGE, ABS, CHECK VSC, AND EMERGENCY BREAK. THE BREAK ACTION RESPONSE WAS DIMINISHED. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM TO TOYOTA, AND THEY EXTENDED THE WARRANTY, BUT OURS IS BEYOND THE NEW EXTENSION WINDOW. COST TO REPAIR IS $1,600

I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 25MPH ON MONTGOMERY DRIVE IN PHILADELPHIA (CITY STREET) IN THE MORNING OF 12/9/2019. IT WAS RAINING LIGHTLY. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WAS ABOUT 4 TO 5 CAR-LENGTHS AHEAD. IT BRAKED AS ANOTHER CAR TRIED TO CUT IN, AND I ALSO IMMEDIATELY BRAKED. MY BRAKE FELT GRINDING AND MY CAR CONTINUED TO SLIDE INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME.

THE MELTING DASHBOARD WHICH CAUSES A SHINE WHICH REFLECTS INTO DRIVERS VISION IS A DANGER!!!! THE FACT THAT TOYOTA ALLOWS THIS TO GO ON, AND DOES NOT REMEDY IT FOR THOSE THAT (FOR WHATEVER REASON) MISSED THE NOTICES SENT OUT IS A DISGRACE, AND A DANGER TO NOT ONLY THE DRIVER, BUT EVERYONE ON THE ROAD!! HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE STILL DRIVING CARS WITH THIS ISSUE?? THESE ARE ACCIDENTS JUST WAITING TO HAPPEN! MY MOTHER'S CAR DASHBOARD DID NOT BEGIN TO "MELT" UNTIL AFTER THE NOTICES WERE SENT, SO SHE DIDN'T THINK THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH HERS....SURPRISE!!! IT HAS NOW BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 3 YEARS OR MORE. TOYOTA ONLY WANTS CUSTOMER TO PAY FOR REPAIR OUT OF POCKET. THIS WILL BE THE LAST TOYOTA IN OUR FAMILY!

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT WERE I WAS HIT FROM THE BACK PUSHED IN TO ANOTHER VEHICLE WE'RE MY CAR WAS TOTALED YET MY AIRBAGS DID NOT COME OUT. NOT ON SIDES OR FRONT. I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOPLIGHT BEHIND FOR OTHER CARS THEN A CAR CAME OUT OF NOWHERE FULL SPEED AT LEAST 30 40 MILES AN HOUR IN MY ESTIMATION HOWEVER HIT ME HARD ENOUGH TO PUSH ME INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS ON THE FEEDER ROAD DIRECTLY OFF OF THE HIGHWAY GOT A COMPLETE STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH IN THE COLD RAIN, THE CONTACT HAD TO EXERT EXTRA PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 131,454.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 CAMRY ON A TOWN HIGHWAY, I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. SMOKE STARTED TO FILL THE CABIN, AND I SAW A GLOWING FLAME WHERE THE SEAT WARMER BUTTON IS, ON THE CONSOLE. IMMEDIATELY, I TURNED OFF THE SEAT WARMER BUTTON. I LOOKED FOR A PLACE TO PULLOVER, HEARD A LOUD POPPING SOUND, SAW A LARGER FLAME AND BLACK SMOKE FILLED THE CAR. I PULLED OVER TO A SHELL STATION, CALLED 911, AND A MAN WITH FIRE EXTINGUISHER SPRAYED THE NOW CONSIDERABLE FIRE BURNING . THE BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED AFTER THE FIRE WAS OUT, AND THE DAMAGE TO THE CAR IS NOT REPAIRABLE. A TOW CAR BROUGHT IT HOME. THE FIRE WAS ELECTRICAL WHEN IT STARTED AND THEN ESCALATED QUICKLY. . MY QUESTION IS WHY DID THE FUSE NOT BLOW TO PREVENT THE FIRE? THANK GOD I WAS IN A TOWN NEAR A SERVICE STATION AND NOT ALONE ON AN ISOLATED ROAD. THE FIRE GREW VERY QUICKLY. THIS JUST HAPPENED THIS EVENING ON 11/19/19. IT WAS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE, AND IT WAS PRETTY FRIGHTENING HOW QUICKLY THE FIRE ESCALATED. I AM GOING TO CONTACT TOYOTA ABOUT THIS MALFUNCTION AS WELL. THE CASE # BY THE ST. JAMES PARISH SHERIFFF'S OFFICE IS SJP19002613. I CALLED 911 AND 4 POLICE CARS AND FIRE TRUCK WERE DEPLOYED AND CAME TO THE SCENE.

DRIVING ON STREET APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION WHERE I WAS TURNING LEFT AND HAD A GREEN LIGHT WHEN THE ABS/ESC LIGHTS ON THE DASH TURNED ON AND BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. THIS CAUSED ME TO ROLL THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AND ALMOST CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. HAD TO STOP BY ROLLING INTO CURB. FOUND THE BRAKES DO WORK SOMEWHAT NOW BUT ARE DANGEROUSLY WEAK.

MY DASHBOARD HAS A STICKY FILM AND WHEN SUNLIGHT IS PRESENT IT'S HAZARDOUS TO SEE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING CONCERN WITH TOYOTA CARS BETWEEN 2007-2009. I CONTACTED TOYOTA FOR GENERAL INFORMATION FOR REPLACEMENT ON 26 OCT 19. ACCORDING TO A TOYOTA REP ON 1 NOV 19, RECALL NOTICES WERE SENT TO REGISTERED OWNERS BY REACHING OUT THROUGH THEIR LOCAL MVA IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND. ALL VEHICLES I EVER OWNED WERE ALWAYS REGISTERED BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A CORRESPONDENCE FROM THE TOYOTA. NOW THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED AND I'M RESPONSIBLE SHOULD I WANT TO MAKE THE REPAIR AND NO OTHER RESOLUTIONS. THIS WHAT I RECEIVED FROM TOYOTA AFTER BEING A LOYAL CUSTOMER.

BRAKES SUDDENLY LOCK UP WHEN BACKING UP. CODE COMES UP ABNORMAL, ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR.

DASHBOARD IS WEARING TOUBLE. ITS STICKY AND ALL CRACKED UP

MELTING DASHBOARD, STICKY SHINY AND CREATES GLARE ON WINDSHIELD THAT IS UNSAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT'S MOTHER OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN MELTED THE DASHBOARD, WHICH CAUSED THE AREA TO BECOME STICKY AND VISIBLE ON THE INSIDE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED TOYOTA OF DOWNTOWN L.A. (LOCATED AT 1901 S FIGUEROA ST, LOS ANGELES, CA 90007, (213) 481-5074) AND INFORMED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL NEEDED TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE EVERY WEEK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT NO OIL LEAK WAS FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 210,000.

MY SAFETY ISSUE IS THE MELTING RUBBER DASHBOARD ISSUE BECOMING STICKY, SHINY AND REFLECTING A GLARE REDUCING AND BLINDING MY VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING. I PURCHASED IN 2016 A USED TOYOTA CAMRY LE FROM A USED CAR DEALERSHIP. IN SUMMER 2018 I NOTICED THE DASHBOARD WAS TACKY TO THE TOUCH. I ASKED AT A CAR SUPPLIES AND PARTS STORE IF THEY KNEW WHAT CAUSED THIS BUT NO ONE COULD HELP ME. I ASKED CARMAX ONE TIME ABOUT THIS AND TOLD IT MUST ME SOMETHING I PUT ON THE CAR WHICH I HAD NOT. THEN THIS SUMMER 2019 THE DASHBOARD BECAME SO STICKY AND SHINY WITH MELTING RUBBER AND GLARE SO BLINDING IT REDUCES MY VIEW OF THE ROAD AND NOW IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN ANY BRIGHT SUNSHINE OR ONCOMING CAR HEADLIGHTS. ON 10-13-2019 WHILE DRIVING I TURNED A CURVE ON A BUSY ROAD AND WAS COMPLETELY BLINDED BY GLARE AND NARROWLY MISSED HITTING AN ONCOMING CAR. I KEEP A CLEAN CAR AND ALL GLASS SO THIS IS NOT A BUILDUP ON THE GLASS. ON 10-14-2019 I BEGAN ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND THERE HAD INDEED BEEN A PROBLEM SO I WENT DIRECTLY TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER CARE AND EMAILED THIS PROBLEM AND REQUESTED ASSISTANCE. I THEN SPOKE WITH A CUSTOMER CARE PERSON THAT ADVISED ME THERE WAS A SPECIAL EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM BUT THAT PROGRAM HAD EXPIRED AUGUST 2017 AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY WOULD DO. I EXPRESSLY INQUIRED HOW COULD THEY KNOW THEY HAVE A DANGEROUS SITUATION IN CARS AND OFFER NO ASSISTANCE. THEY SAID THEY WENT TO EACH STATES DMV TO GET ADDRESS OF TOYOTA OWNERS OF AFFECTED CARS AND MAILED THEM. I EXPLAINED I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN 2016 AND WHAT DO THEY OFFER TO MAKE MY CAR SAFE. I GOT ONLY APOLOGIES. THIS IS EVIDENTLY A KNOWN AND LONG TERM SAFETY PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA CARS AND IS AT A DANGEROUS LEVEL FOR MANY OWNERS OF USED TOYOTA'S WITH NO CORRECTIVE STEPS AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE TRAVELING 40 MPH, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE AND THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE SLID UNTIL IT FINALLY STOPPED. THERE WAS NO CRASH. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN CAREFULLY BACK TO THE CONTACT'S HOME. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC CONFIRMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE ACTUATOR. MCKINNON TOYOTA (235 PRICE DR, CLANTON, AL 35046, (205) 755-3430) REQUESTED THAT THE CONTACT BRING IN THE VEHICLE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AT HER EXPENSE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 145,500. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

THE MELTING DASHBOARD IS CAUSING TREMENDOUS GLARE FROM SUN CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. TOYOTA IS AWARE AND HAD A VOLUNTARY RECALL, BUT I DID NOT GET THE LETTER. WHEN I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL, I THOUGHT DATE OF FIRST USE WAS WHEN I BEGAN DRIVING THE CAR, IT IS NOT. THE SECONDARY COVERAGE FOR 10 YEARS AFTER DATE OF FIRST USE WAS 8/3/17. I CALLED TOYOTA ON 11/17/17 AND THEY SAID TOO LATE. I WENT TO TOYOTA AND CALLED CORPORATE ON 5-30-18, BUT THEY WOULD DO NOTHING. I USE A SUNSHIELD AND CAR IS MOSTLY GARAGED, BUT IT IS THE TEXAS HEAT CAUSING IT, AND I CAN'T STOP IT. I RECENTLY SAW THIS PROBLEM ON THE NEWS WITH NISSAN AND TOYOTA AND HOW DANGEROUS IT IS. THIS IS WHY I AM NOT FILING THIS REPORT.

DASHBOARD ON 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE IS MELTING. NOTICED SEVERAL MONTHS BACK THAT IT WAS TACKY TO THE TOUCH AND SEEMED TO GET WORSE AS THE WEATHER HEATED UP. GLARE IS BECOMING MORE OF A PROBLEM, SPECIFICALLY ON HOT SUNNY DAYS, MELTING DASHBOARD PUT A SMALL GOUGE IN THE DASHBOARD WHEN SOMETHING WAS SET ON IT AND THEN MOVED. DEBRIS AND DUST IS ALSO COLLECTING ON THE DASHBOARD. WILL BECOME MORE HAZARDOUS AS TIME GOES ON. CALLED BOTH TOYOTA AND THE DEALERSHIP. TOYOTA INFORMED ME THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON RECALL LIST AND TOO WAIT TO SEE IF ANOTHER RECALL WOULD BE ISSUED. DEALERSHIP WANTS TO CHARGE OVER $2,000 FOR PART AND LABOR. I HAVE KEPT MY CAR IN THE GARAGE AND DASHBOARD HAS SEEMED A LITTLE SLOWER TO DETERIORATE COMPARED TO OTHERS, BUT NOW THAT IT IS BREAKING DOWN, WILL MOST LIKELY DECLINE QUICKER. A PROBLEM CREATED BY TOYOTA ALSO AFFECTS RESALE AND TRADE IN VALUE OF THE VEHICLE AT NO FAULT OF THE OWNER.

DASHBOARD REPLACED AFTER RECALL..5 YEARS AGO ..SAME PROBLEM NOW MELTING CAUSING BAD VISIBILITY.. TOYOTA REFUSED HELP..DEALERSHIP REFUSED HELP

WHEN OUTDOOR TEMPERATURES GET COLD, MY BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON, THEN I GET A CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND MY ABS LIGHT AND TRACTION LIGHTS COME ON, MORE OVER MY BRAKES ARE LESS RESPONSIVE (GO SOFT).

DRIVER SIDE SUN SHADE DOESNT STAY IN PLACE, BLOCKS VIEW AND KEEPS FALLING DOWN WHEN PUT BACK UP CAUSES A HAZARD WHILE DRIVING BY DISTRACTING DRIVER WHILE DRIVING. I REMOVED IT SO DONT HAVE A PICTURE OF IT DOWN.

ABS BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. LOSS OF BRAKES, POWER STEERING, ENGINE POWER WHILE ON A BUSY STREET APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION

MOVING AT 70 MPH, BATTERY LIGHT STARTED TO FLICKER. THEN 2 LOUD BANGS, LIKE ROCKS HITTING WINDSHIELD, SPEEDOMETER WILDLY FLUCTUATING, CHECK VSC SYS LIGHT ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER BRIEFLY LIT. NO LOSS OF POWER OR CONTROL. BATTERY LITE NOW OFF. CONTINUED ON 3 MINUTES LATER REPEAT, BAM BAM, CHECK VSC SYS, NOW WITH RED TRIANGLE WARNING, ABS LIGHT, SECURITY, PASSENGER AIR BAG & SKID LINES FLASHED ON. NO PROBLEMS ON RETURN TRIP, ALTHOUGH I WAS TRAVELING AT AROUND 50 MPH. I SHOULD ADD THAT I HAD PROBLEM WITH BATTERY IN JAN 2019. REPLACED BATTERY AND POSITIVE CABLE. BATTERY LIGHT KEPT COMING ON, REPLACED ALTERNATOR. PROBLEM WITH INTERMITTENT BATTERY LIGHT REOCCURRED. MECHANIC CLEANED OFF POSITIVE POLE, AND PROBLEM WAS SOLVED UNTIL TODAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE HAD TO BE APPLIED TO STOP THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK ENGINE AND BRAKE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION TOYOTA WESTON (4050 WESTON RD, DAVIE, FL 33331, (954) 644-4867) WHERE IT WAS REPAIRED PER TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10132793 (ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, SERVICE BRAKES). THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 130,000.

TAKATA RECALL I BOUGHT A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CE AND I NOTICED THAT IT'S BURNING TOO MUCH ENGINE OIL

THERE WAS ORIGINALLY A RECALL ON THE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT HAD A WARRANTY TO REPLACE THE MELTING DASHBOARD. THE MELTING DASHBOARD IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE GLARE THAT IT PRODUCES. THE CAR OWNER SHOULD NOT BE MADE RESPONSIBLE FOR AN ERROR TOYOTA CREATED. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT A RECALL WARRANTY SHOULD NEVER EXPIRE FOR SOMEONE WHO PAID FOR A VEHICLE WITH EXPECTATIONS THAT THERE WOULD BE NO ISSUES.

SUN VISOR (PASSENGER SIDE) HAS ROTATED SLOWLY DOWNWARD BLOCKING MY VIEW OF THE ROAD. APPARENTLY THE SPRING TENSION MECHANISM FAILED CAUSING THE VISOR TO HANG DOWNWARD OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW OF THE ROAD. NOTE: THE SUN VISOR AND SUN VISOR BRACKET WAS PREVIOUSLY INVOLVED IN A TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTICE INVOLVING THIS SAME VEHICLE.

I WANT TO WASH MY CAR TO TOE DELTA SONIC CAR WASH AFTER THE WASH THE AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON

THE SUN VISOR DROPPED, BLINDING MY SIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND A CLEAR SAFETY ISSUE. TOYOTA HAD PREVIOUSLY ISSUED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT, BUT HAD SAID AT THE TIME THAT IF THE ISSUE HAS NOT YET APPEARED, WE SHOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. NOW THAT THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PERIOD HAS EXPIRED, THEY ARE NOT PREPARED TO DO ANYTHING. THIS IS A CLEAR SAFETY CONCERN. A RECALL IS WARRANTED. NOT ONLY IS VISIBILITY SEVERELY IMPAIRED WHILE DRIVING, BUT ALSO REMOVING THE VISOR EXPOSES THE DRIVER TO STRONG SUN GLARES THAT MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE SAFELY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND AFFECTED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TOYOTA OF HOLLYWOOD (1841 N STATE ROAD 7, HOLLYWOOD, FL 33021, 855-472-9747) WHERE THE DASHBOARD WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS CHARGED A $250 SERVICE FEE FOR THE LABOR REQUIRED FOR THE REPAIR. AFTER THE DASHBOARD WAS REPLACED, THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V689000 (VISIBILITY), WHICH WAS RELATED TO THE INITIAL DASHBOARD FAILURE. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS REPLACED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE RECALL DID NOT APPLY TO THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE BECAUSE THE DASHBOARD HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED. RECENTLY, THE DASHBOARD BEGAN TO MELT AGAIN AND AFFECTED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE WITH HAVING THE DASHBOARD REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOTIFY THE CONTACT THAT SHE WOULD BE ENTITLED TO A REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE INITIAL FEE FOR THE FIRST REPAIR. THE CONTACT SUBMITTED THE NECESSARY PAPERWORK TO RECEIVE REIMBURSEMENT, BUT HAD NOT HEARD BACK FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE DASH IS STICKY FROM THE HEAT AND IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH TOYOTA CARS. REFLECTION IN DASH IS DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES MADE A WEIRD, CLICKING NOISE. ALSO, THE BRAKES SEIZED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS BEING DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MADE BEEPING SOUNDS WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO SOUTHERN 441 TOYOTA (9205 SOUTHERN BLVD, ROYAL PALM BEACH, FL 33411, 561-693-1393) WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKES WERE FAULTY AND THE BATTERY WAS DEFECTIVE. THE PARTS WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO SEVERAL INDEPENDENT MECHANICS TO BE SERVICED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

I OWN 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY 79K MILES. I STARTED CONSUMED OIL ON 75K MILES. IT CONSUMED 1.3 EVERY 1000 MIES. 2007 TO 2009 2.4L 4-CYL 2AZ-FE. THIS ENGINE HAD BAD REPUTATION FOR OIL BURNING.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH 104,000 (+/-) MILES AND HAVE NOTICED IT'S CONSUMING A LOT OF OIL AN I HAVE HAD TO KEEP ADDING OIL TO THE ENGINE. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER (ATLANTIC TOYOTA IN LYNN, MA) WHERE THEY'VE CONFIRMED THAT IT NEEDS NEW PISTON RINGS WHICH IS CAUSING THE OIL TO BE CONSUMED AT SUCH A A GREAT RATE. I'VE DONE SOME RESEARCH AND HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF AND IN THE PAST HAS OFFERED FIXES (REPLACING THE PISTONS, ETC). I BELIEVE THEY CALLED IT A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM BACK IN 2015-2016. I WAS NOT OFFERED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED UNDER THIS WARRANTY EFFORT.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID WITH 132,000 MILES. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH THE VSC SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS HAPPENED AT 96,000 MILES. THE DEALER STAYED I HAD A LEAK IN THE BRAKE ACTUATOR AND CHARGED ME $150 TO DIAGNOSE, AND $2600 TO REPAIR, I DECLINED THE REPAIR AND TOOK IT TO A SHOP NEAR ME. THEY REPAIRED THE PROBLEM FOR $1000 AND IT LASTED ABOUT TWO YEARS, AND OW IT'S BACK. I HAVE SOFT BRAKES, NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKE PUMP AND A CONSTANT WARNING BELL WHILE DRIVING.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILURE. TOYOTA ENHANCED WARRANTY EXTENDED THE MANUFACTURING DEFECT FOR BOTH TIME AND MILEAGE. THE TIME FRAME HAS EXPIRED BUT THE MILEAGE ALLOTMENT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO END (ONLY 103,000 MILES ON CAR). THIS DEFECT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL SINCE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE TO NUMEROUS TOYOTA CAMRY'S. THEY ISSUED THE ENHANCED WARRANTY TO REDUCE THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF A RECALL AND LIMIT THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS BY ONLY ASSISTING OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THIS BRAKE FAILURE DURING THEIR TIME FRAME. I AM A SENIOR WHO ONLY DRIVES THE CAR TO THE GROCERY STORE. WHEN RETURNING FROM SHOPPING, ALL THE BRAKE AND ANTI SKID LIGHTS LIT UP AND WE TOOK THE CAR STRAIGHT HOME. WE THEN TOOK CAR TO DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. I AM BEING PENALIZED BECAUSE I AM A SENIOR WHO DOES NOT USE THEIR CAR EXCESSIVELY. THE ENHANCED WARRANTY TIME FRAME HAS EXPIRED, BUT THE MILEAGE ALLOTMENT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE. THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THE CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED YEARS AGO.

UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, I NOTICED THE DASH WAS EXTREMELY STICKY, FINALLY REALIZING THE DASH WAS LITERALLY MELTING! THIS IS A TERRIBLE LIABILITY!

BY THAT TIME THE VEHICLES WOULD LIKELY "BE OUT OF USE"!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE WAS ALSO LAWSUIT FILED BY MELISSA GRAHAM, THE OWNER OF A 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY. THAT LAWSUIT, MELISSA GRAHAM V. TOYOTA MOTOR CORP., ET AL., WAS DISMISSED AFTER TOYOTA ANNOUNCED THE WARRANTY PROGRAM. BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT A RECALL TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE STICKY DASHBOARD RESULTING FROM HEAT OF SUMMER AND WINTER HEATING WHICH CAUSES EYE, THROAT AND LUNG IRRITATION, CLOUDING, GLARE OF WINDSHIELD AND EYEGLASSES. THE CLOCK MOUNTED ON THE DASHBOARD HAS A CLOUD OVER THE PLASTIC COVER MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO READ AS WELL AS PLASTIC COVER OVER DOME LIGHTS. I BROUGHT ALL OF THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF SERVICE ADVISOR PRIOR TO THE TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT WHICH ENDED MAY 2017, HOWEVER THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME IT WAS NOT A KNOWN ISSUE, DID NOT RECORD THE ISSUE AND SUGGESTED WHATEVER I USED TO CLEAN THE DASH, CLOCK AND DOME LIGHT CREATED THE PROBLEM. MY QUESTION, WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE TO MAKE TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION TAKE RESPONSIBILITY OF THIS HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARD? PERHAPS ANOTHER CLASS ACTION SUIT NOW THAT IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED DEALERS ARE RESELLING THESE VEHICLES WITH THE DASHBOARD DEFECT AND DENYING REPLACEMENT DUE TO MAY 2017 EXPIRATION DATE TO THOSE OF US STILL DRIVING THESE VEHICLES .NO MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO DENY LIABILITY FOR A DEFECT THAT IS CLEARLY A HEALTH AND SAFETY HAZARD.

TAKATA RECALLS DASH BOARD IS STICKY AIR BAG SIGN OFF

I HAVE TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 AND I LIVE IN NORTH TEXAS. I WANTED TO CLEAN MY DASHBOARD ONCE IN SUMMER AND I SAW THAT IT'S COMING OFF AND IT'S STICKY AND I COULD SEE MY FINGERNAIL PRINTS ON THE DASHBOARD AND EVEN WHILE DRIVING IT EASILY GETS DENTED BY MY NAILS. BUGS AND DUST GET ATTACHED TO IT, AND THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO REMOVE THEM WHICH IS A HEALTH HAZARD. ALSO, ITS REFLECT ON THE WIND SHIELD SPECIALLY IN SUNNY DAYS, WHICH IS ALMOST EVERYDAY IN TEXAS, BLOCKS MY EYE SIGHT AND I HARDLY CAN SEE PASSENGERS OR TRAFFIC SIGNS WHICH IS REALLY DANGEROUS. AFTER SOME READINGS I FOUND THAT IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM AND THERE WAS A RECALL THAT I MISSED. I EMAILED TOYOTA AND FILED A COMPLAINT, BUT I GOT DISREGARDED. I CALLED AND YOU TOLD ME THAT THE WARRANTY OF YOUR CAR HAS BEEN EXPIRED WHICH WAS MAY 2017. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN OCTOBER 2016 AND BY MAY 2017 THERE WAS NO SUMMER OR HOT WEATHER. I NEVER GOT ANY EMAIL OR NOTICE FROM TOYOTA ABOUT THIS ISSUE. TOYOTA TOLD ME YOU MUST PAY FOR THAT BY YOURSELF. I AM JUST A STUDENT AND CANNOT EITHER AFFORD REPLACING THE DASHBOARD OR CHANGING MY CAR. IT'S BEEN ALMOST A YEAR SINCE I HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH THIS ISSUE AND I COULD NOT FIND A REAL SOLUTION FOR MY MELTING DASHBOARD. THE MAKER SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS WITH SUCH ISSUES.

THE BRAKE LIGHTS SYSTEMS AND ABS LIGHTS COMES OUT AS I START THE CAR AND ALL GAUGES STOP WORKING, THE AC DON'T WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I CAN'T TELL HOW FAST IM GOING BECAUSE THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE FAILED TO PROVIDE THE CORRECT READING, THE ABS CONTROL MODULE AND EMERGENCY WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATES ON THE SCREEN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I AM DRIVING, IT DOES RAMDONLY AND NOW IS MORE FRECUENTLY.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO WORK THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, VSC LIGHT AND ABS LIGHTS APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. THEN THE BRAKES WERE REALLY MUSHY AND IT TOOK A LOT OF FORCE TO STOP THE CAR. SHE PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. WHEN SHE RESTARTED THE CAR THE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. SHE WAS ABLE TO SLOWLY DRIVE BACK HOME.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY TACKY WHICH IS CAUSING AN UNSAFE GLARE WHILE OPERATING MY VEHICLE. I AM AT THE POINT WHERE MY VEHICLE IS BECOMING INCREASINGLY UNSAFE TO DRIVE. NO IMAGE AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME.

THE DASBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING AND IS SO STICKY, THERE IS A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD, MAKES IT HARD TO DRIVE.

STICKY & DEGRADING DASH PAD. MY VEHICLE IS PAST THE "ENHANCED WARRANTY" PERIOD FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT CREATES GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. THIS SHOULD BE A MANDATORY RECALL. PLEASE HELP.

CHECK VSC SYSTEM

THE DASHBOARD KEEP MELTING AND STICKY HENCE AFFECTING VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING... I ACTUALLY TOOK IT TO FAMILY TOYOTA OF ARLINGTON BUT WAS TOLD THE RECALL WAS OVER AND I HAVE TO PAY $1100 WHICH I DO NOT HAVE AND CANT AFFORD.

I BOUGHT MY CAR NEW AND I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE DASHBOARD UNTIL JUNE 2017. I TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP BECUSE I READ ON THE INTERNET THAT THIS WAS A DEFECT WITH THE CAR. I ALSO NEVER REVEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA REGARDING THE DASHBOARD. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO TOYOTA THEY SAID IT WAS STICKY AND THEY ORDERED A NEW DASHBOARD. I TOOK THE CAR IN THEN GOT A PHONECALL FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT TOYOTA WOULD NOT COVER THE COST BECAUSE IT WAS AFTER MAY 2017. NOW IT IS BECOMING A SAFTEY ISSUE BECASE OF THE MELTING IT IS REFLECTING ON MY WINDSHIELD WHICH IS A SAFTEY HAZARD WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. TOYATA CORPORATE TOLD ME THEY MAKE NO EXCEPTIONS. WHAT CAN I DO?

BRAKES NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. BRAKE PRESSURE IS INCONSISTENT AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH AT THE SAME TIME! UNSAFE BRAKE CONDITIONS DUE TO TOYOTA PART DEFECT

THE DASHBOARD APEARS TO BE MELTING.BECAUSE THE DASH IS MELTING IT GIVES OFF A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT AFFECT VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. IT HAS TURNED INTO A STICKY MESS THAT NO STORE BOUGHT CLEANER CAN CLEAR/CLEAN OFF. I FELL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS IF AFFECT THE VISIBILITY OF THE DRIVER.

THE DASHBOARD IS IS SHINY AND SOFT LIKE IT'S MELTING. WE DID NOT RECEIVE ANY NOTICE FROM TOYOTA ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAY THEY WILL NOT COVER IT, BECAUSE WE DIDN'T GET IT LOOKED AT BEFORE THE DEADLINE. WE WERE NOT AWARE THAT IT WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS COVERED TO TAKE IT IN AND HAVE IT EVALUATED. NOT SURE OF WHEN IT STARTED.

TAKATA RECALL - MY DASH HAS SUCH A BAD GLARE I HAVE TO PLACE SOMETHING OVER IT SO I CAN SEE SAFELY. THE DASH IS MELTING SO MUCH I CANNOT EVEN GET IT CLEANED BECAUSE THE DASH WIPES OFF WITH THE CLEANING RAGS. IT IS MELTING INTO MY SUN VISOR AND HAS A STRANGE ODOR IN THE CAR. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT CONSUMERS HAVE TO SUFFER AND BE BLINDED, THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE ESP EARLY IN THE MORNING WHEN THE SUB IS SO BRIGHT! THE DASH IS PEELING OFF IN PLACES AS WELL, IT POPS UP AND HAS PIECES COMING OFF OR WIPING OFF AS IF THEY WERE BOILED AND VERY FRAGILE. I HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS OF THE GLARE, THE STICKINESS THAT MAKES EVERYTHING STICK TO IT AND YOU CANNOT CLEAN THE DASH AT ALL OR IT SMUDGES OFF AS MENTIONED EARLIER. THE PHOTOS ALSO SHOW THE DASH IS MELTING INTO MY SUN SHADES.

EXCESSIVE GLARE ON WINDSHIELD LIMITING VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. FROM NEWS REPORTS AS SEEN ON LOCAL NBC-TV AFFILIATE (JULY 31,2019) TOYOTA ADMITTED THAT MELTING DASHBOARDS CONTRIBUTED TO THIS SAFETY CONCERN/ WINDSHIELD GLARE EFFECT. THE MELTING DASHBOARD HAD BEEN REPORTED TO TOYOTA (A FEW MONTHS AGO FOR THE SECOND TIME - ORIGINALLY REPORTED IN 2014 AND TOYOTA INDICATED THEY WILL REVIEW). THE SECOND NOTIFICATION RESULTED IN THE RESPONSE THAT TOYOTA WAS NOT AWARE OF THE ISSUE. ISSUE HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.

TAKATA RECALL IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE RECALL WHEN I SAW RECALL FOR THE YEAR AND MODEL AND MAKE I WAS LIKE FINALLY BUT COME TO FIND OUT THE VIN NUMBER WASN'T RECALLED BUT NEEDS TO BE. GOES OFF AND HAVE TO PULL OVER TO TURN BACK ON

THE DASH HAS BEEN MELTING FOR YEARS IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE. SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE , I HAVE USED THE SUN SHADES AND GARAGE AS WELL AND STILL MY DASH HAS SOFTEN, MELTED , CRACKED , CHUNKS COME OUT BY SIMPLY TOUCHING WITH FINGERNAIL ETC BY MISTAKE . I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A RECALL AND OWNED THE CAR SINCE 2009 AND LIVED ST THE SAME ADDRESS FOR 15 YEARS UNTIL RECENTLY. IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE THE DEFECT FIXED !!!!! MY SECOND TOYOTA . PLEASE FIX IT !!

PASSENGER VISOR NOT WORKING

TOO MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION

MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 LE, IS BURNING WAY TO MUCH OIL. I HAVE CONSTANTLY KEEP PUTING OIL IN MY ENGINE SO THAT IT DOESN'T BURN. AND MY CAR DOESNT HAVE ANY LEEKS SO THIS IS DEFINITELY AN ENGINE PROBLEM.

MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN STICKY / TACKY FOR YEARS. I DO NOT KNOW WHY OR HOW IT GOT THIS WAY. IT ACCUMULATES DUST AND GRIME, AND I HAVE NO WAY TO PROPERLY CLEAN IT SINCE ALL TOWELS AND CLEANING CLOTHS, UNLESS EXTREMELY WET, GET CAUGHT ON IT, AND THEN IT ACCUMULATES FIBERS FROM THE CLEANING CLOTHS. IF I PRESS INTO THE DASHBOARD WITH MY FINGER, IT RETAINS A FINGERPRINT. I CAN EASILY CLEAVE A PIECE OFF WITH MY NAIL. OBVIOUS WHEN THE DASHBOARD IS SHINY ON A SUNNY DAY, THE GLARE IS ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR RECENTLY

A WHILE BACK I WAS DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET MY VSC MESSAGE CAME ON AND I NOTICE A JERK IN THE TIRES IF IT WAS SLIDING, SO I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF HOPING IT COULD BE A SENSOR FAILURE SO AFTER SITTING FOR 5 MINS I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON NOTICE THE MESSAGE WASN'T THERE ANYMORE I THEN BEGIN TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR A GOOD 5 MINS AND THE CAR DID THE EXACT THING VSC MESSAGE CAME BACK ON THE CAR BEGUN TO FEEL LIKE IT WAS SLIDING SO I PULLED OVER AGAIN SAT ABOUT 10MINS THIS TIME, TURNED THE CAR ON THE MESSAGE WASN'T THERE I START DRIVING 5 MINS LATER THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED AGAIN.

DASHBOARD HAS MELTED AND IS VERY STICKY. GLARE FROM THE SHINY SURFACE ON WINDSHIELD MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. FROM RESEARCH, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO TOYOTA.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT THE ENGINE LIGHT IS BLINKING AND THE CAR IS MAKING NOISE THE OIL HAS BEEN CHARGED OVER A 10 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT FOR A YEAR & BOUGHT FROM A DEALER I GOT IT LOOK AT BY TOYOTA FOR THEM TO TELL ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE MY OIL PUMP IS GOING OUT AND ROD-MAIN BEARINGS IN THE ENGINE ARE BAD THE FUEL INJECTORS. ARE GOING OUT CANT RUN MY A.C BECAUSE IT MAKES MY CAR TURN OFF I MEAN COME ON.

WE PURCHASED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND AFTER THREE MONTHS OF OWNING IT WE NOW NEED A NEW ENGINE. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A FUNNY NOISE AND SMOKING. HE HAD TO STOP ON THE HIGHWAY IN A TURNING LANE AT NIGHT. I AM SO UPSET THAT WE NOW HAVE A NONWORKING VEHICLE THAT WE STILL OWE MONEY ON. I HAVE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY 2007 MODELS WITH ENGINE FAILURE. I'M NOT A DETECTIVE BUT SOMETHING IS CRIMINAL ABOUT THIS. WE WORK HARD TO PAY FOR THESE VEHICLES....THEY ARNT A TOY WE PLAY WITH....WE NEED THEM TO GET PLACES SAFELY. IF THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE....IT MUST BE A MANUFACTURER FLAW. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE IT RIGHT.

CHECK VSC SYSTEM AS WELL AS ABS AND TIRE LIGHTS COME ON. KNOWN ISSUE WITH TOYOTA. HAD A MAINTENANCE PROGRAM, BUT WON'T HELP ME BECAUSE IT DIDN'T START TO OCCUR UNTIL 1 MONTH AFTER EXPIRATION DATE. THEY DON'T SEND NOTIFICATIONS. YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHICH COULD BE AFTER IT CAUSES AN ACCIDENT!

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR NEIGHBORHOODS THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD GO TO 0 INDICATING THAT THE SPEED OF THE CAR WAS UNKNOWN. NOT KNOWING WHAT SPEED YOU ARE DRIVING ALLOWS FOR EXCESSIVE SPEED AND COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR GET STOPPED FOR SPEEDING. THE ABS MODULE IS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE

THE DASH MELTS IN THE HEAT CAUSING IT TO BECOME VERY SHINY CAUSING HUGE AREAS WHEN THE SUN SHINES TO REFLECT ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THIS GLARE IS SO BAD IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR OTHER THAN THE REFLECTION OF THE DASH

I BOUGHT MY 2007 CAMRY IN 2006 AND IT HAS BEEN GREAT TILL THE LAST 6 MONTHS WHEN THE DASH BOARD STARTED TO GET STICKY AND IS NOW FULLY STICKY AND GLOSSY TO THE POINT WHERE THE SUN REFLECTS OFF IT AND IS BLINDING. TOYOTA SAID THEY HAD A RECALL WHICH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE ADDRESS WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR IS THE SAME IN MY DRIVER'S LICENSE AND I NEVER CHANGED IT. I LIVE IN BUENA PARK SINCE 1991 AND MY DRIVERS LICENSE HAS THAT ADDRESS SINCE I WAS 18 (18 YEARS AGO). I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THE RECALL NEEDED AND ITS. OT THEIR CONCERN. I FIND IT IRRESPONSIBLE THAT TOYOTA TAKES NO ACTION FOR FAULTY MANUFACTURING OF THEIR PRODUCTS AND SHIFTS THE FAULT TO THE CONSUMER WHEN I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS ANY ISSUES. SECONDLY WHEN THEY HAD THE GAS PEDAL RECALL I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR MAINTENANCE AND WHEN I GOT IT BACK THEY CUT THE PEDAL WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE AND SAID A REPLACEMENT WAS ON BACK ORDER. I HAVE SINCE 2010 REQUESTED THE REPLACEMENT TILL 2011 AND THEY ALWAYS SAID IT IN BACK ORDER. I GAVE UP ASKING BECAUSE I GOT EXCUSES. WHEN I'M DRIVING MY FOOT SLIPS OFF THE GAS PEDAL BECAUSE ITS SHORTER. ITS HAZARDOUS WHEN YOUR MAKING A TURN AND THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION AND YOU HAVE TO QUICKLY HIT THE GAS AGAIN. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN THE ROAD IS SLIPPERY IN A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA WITH THESE CONCERNS AND ALL THEY SAY IS THAT THERE ISNT ANYTHING THEY CAN DO.

THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME EXTREMELY STICKY, CAUSING A SEVERE REFLECTION ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDSHIELD. I CONTACTED TOYOTA, THEY SAID THE WARRANTY FOR THIS HAS EXPIRED. CASE #[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

OUR 2007 CAMRY CONSTANTLY EATS OIL. WE CHECK IT EVERY 2-3 WEEKS AND IT'S NOT ON THE DIP STICK. I ADD ABOUT AN ADDITIONAL 3 QTS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES... THIS IS NOT NORMAL! CAR DOES NOT SMOKE NOR IS IT LEAKING THE OIL.

DASH IS STICKY. ANYTHING TOUCHING IT STICKS LIKE A MAGNET.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAMRY IS MELTING CAUSING A STICKY RESIDUE. MY SAFETY CONCERN IS WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, SUN CAUSES A GLARE ON TO THE WINDSHIELD PREVENTING ME FROM SEEING ANY ON COMING TRAFFIC, OR OBJECTS. WITHOUT CLEAR VISIBILITY DRIVING THIS CAR HAS CAUSED ME SEVERAL NEAR HEAD ON COLLISIONS WITH ONGOING TRAFFIC. DRIVING THIS CAR I PURCHASED SCARES ME THAT THIS IS ISSUE WILL CAUSE ME AN ACCIDENT WHICH COULD TAKE MY LIFE OR SOMEONE ELSE ON ROAD I MAY HIT. TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF THE DASH ISSUE YEARS PRIOR BUT ONLY FIXED SOME OF THIS DEFECTED DASHES BY CREATING A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT. IF THE PROBLEM WAS PRESENT OR KNOWN IT WAS REPLACEABLE WITH IN THEIR WINDOW OF TIME, THEY WILL NOT MAKE THEIR DEFECTED DASH CORRECT. I REALIZE OVER TIME ALL COMPONENTS OF A CAR HAVE WEAR AND TEAR. THIS IS NOT THAT ISSUE AT ALL. THIS IS A ISSUE OF A DASH BEING USED THAT HAS A CHEMICAL WHILE IN SUN MELTS. THERE WAS TWO PRIOR CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AND TO PREVENT A RECALL AND NOTIFYING ALL OWNERS OF THIS DEFECT AND CORRECTING IT FOR THE SAFETY OF DRIVERS IN THEIR PRODUCT BUT ALSO DRIVERS IN OTHER AUTOS WHICH ARE NOW AT DANGER IF THIS VIABILITY CAUSES A CAMRY DRIVER TO COLLIDE WITH THEIR AUTO. THIS DEFECT EFFECTS ALL DRIVERS ON THE HIGHWAY NOT JUST THE TOYOTA DRIVERS. I HAVE BEEN TO AND CALLED TOYOTA SEVERAL TIMES PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE AND MY FEAR OF DRIVING. I HAVE SIMPLY BEEN ABLE TO GET NO RECOURSE FOR THIS DEFECT. I AM VERY AWARE OF THE COST TO FIX THIS DEFECT HOWEVER I FEEL THE COST OF EVERY LIFE REPLACING THIS DASH SAVES IS WORTH WELL MORE THAN THE COST TO REPLACE THE DEFECTED DASH. I PLEAD FOR YOU TO INVESTIGATE A HUGE PROBLEM & THE TRAP INVOLVED WITH THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT TOYOTA IMPLEMENTED VERSUS RECALLING THE DASHBOARDS, GETTING THEM OFF THE ROAD TO MAKE HIGHWAY DRIVING SAFER FOR NON TOYOTA OWNERS SIMPLY DRIVING & OWNERS WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY PAY WITH THEIR LIFE. THANKS

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION GOING STRAIGHT ON A CITY STREET, AND "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" NOTIFICATION TURNED ON. BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND (!) ALL CAME ON. BRAKES BECAME SHAKY WHEN PRESSED.

TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 ENGINE CONSUMES EXCESSIVE OIL. TOYOTA ISSUED A TSB FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT BECAUSE MY CAR IS MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD AND HAD OVER 150K MILES, IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE TSB. THEY ESTIMATE IT WILL COST $5000 TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS.

LARGE PARTS OF DASHBOARD MELTING OR EXTRUDING GLOSSY STICKY RESIDUE, CAUSING HAZARDOUS GLARE WHEN DRIVING. TOYOTA AWARE OF SITUATION AND EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR SOME MODELS FOR THIS CONDITION BUT NOT MY MODEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR FAILED TO FUNCTION AND THE DASHBOARD WAS DETERIORATING. THE OWNER WAS CONCERNED THAT THE DASHBOARD FAILURE COULD AFFECT THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE AIR BAG COMPONENTS. THE DEALER FROM WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WAS CONTACTED, BUT HAD NOT PROVIDED A MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER SUPPORT PROGRAM - LSC ZE6 (TOYOTA DASH PROBLEM MELTING CRACKING WARRANTY EXTENSION). THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE SEVERAL TIMES AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A CASE MANAGER TO RESPOND WITH A RESOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT DID NOT HAVE THE DEALER INFORMATION HANDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ENGINE HAS HIGH OIL AND FUEL CONSUMPTION. THE CONSUMPTION OF OIL IS TWO QUARTS A MONTH.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING WHICH IS CAUSING A TERRIBLE GLARE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD.I WAS TOLD IF IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE IT WOULD BE COVERED BUT SINCE THEY DIDN'T PUT IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE. ITS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, DUE TO THE GLARE REFLECTING FROM THE MELTING DASHBOARD MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. HOW THIS WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE TO BEGIN WITH SURPRISES ME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE JERKED. IN ADDITION, THE TRACTION CONTROL, EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TOYOTA CHULA VISTA (650 MAIN ST, CHULA VISTA, CA 91911, (619) 591-0900) WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND PROVIDED A REPAIR QUOTE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 204,000.

MY CAR IS BURNING 0IL. EVERY TWO WEEKS I AM PUTTING AT LEAST 4 TO 5 QUARTS OF OIL IN MY CAR AND IT IS NOT LEAKING ON THE GROUND.

FEW DAYS AGO WHILE DRIVING - THE WARNING "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" INDICATOR CAME ON WITH FOUR WARNING LIGHTS - BRAKES, EXCLAMATION TRACTION CONTROL, ABS AND SKID CONTROL. SUDDENLY BRAKES STARTED ACTING STRANGELY AND SOFT AND JERKY. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO FRED ANDERSON TOYOTA AND AFTER DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS TOLD THAT IT IS CODE 1392 WHICH REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF ABS CONTROL MODULE (THE COST TO REPLACE WAS QUOTED AS $2875.37 - WE DECLINED TO GET IT FIXED. CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE - THEY REVIEWED MY COMPLAINT BUT DECLINED TO HELP.

I HAD MY SCHEDULE OIL CHANGE TWO WEEKS LATER LOW OIL LIGHTCONTINUE TO COME ON, NOT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THEN I'M RIDING AND ENGINE STARTS TO MAKE THIS LOUD RATTLING NOISE PURCHASE CAR 2015 NO LETTER TOYOTA THIS IS MY CASE NUMBER I FILED WITH TOYOTA CASE NUMBER 1905160304

I GOT IN MY VEHICLE TODAY IN THE VSC LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE RESEARCHED OVER GOOGLE, AND EVERYTHING POINTS TO A $3,000 REPAIR, OR A RECALL REPAIRABLE BY TOYOTA. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF I AM ELIGIBLE FOR THAT RECALL REPAIR.

BRAKES DID NOT ACTIVATE, WENT VERY SOFT AND PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" MESSAGE, BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, AND ANOTHER LIGHT (IN ATTACHED IMAGE) ALL CAME ON AFTER THE BRAKES GAVE OUT. I WAS ABLE TO USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. BRAKES WORKED AGAIN, BUT ALL OF THE WARNINGS ARE STILL ON. ALSO, SEEMS LIKE THE IT'S JUST REGULAR BRAKES AND ANTI-LOCK SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING.

SOMETIMES AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE IT WON'T MOVE TO DRIVE OR BACK UP. THIS HAPPENS THREE TO FOUR TIMES ALREADY SINCE 2009 OR AFTER IT IS IN A PARKING POSITION AND CHANGE DIRECTION THE STEERING WHEEL LOST CONTROL OR DIRECTION THIS HAPPEN 2X ALREADY.

PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE DUE TO DEFECT IN THE INNER PLASTIC BODY. MAKING THE ARM UNABLE TO HOLD THE VISOR IN PLACE EFFECTIVELY.

CHECK VSC & HYBRID SYSTEM LIGHTS WENT ON AND NOW MY BRAKES ARE ACTING FUNNY.

THE ABS & BRAKE LIGHT COMES IN AND WHEN IT DOES THE SPEED MOTOR GOES TO 0 AND ALSO IS THE AIR CONDITIONER IS ON IT GOES STRAIGHT TO BLOWING HOT AIR

AS I WAS TRAVELING HOME AND MY STEERING WHEEL START TO HAVE A MIND OF ITS OWN SO IT VEERED TO THE RIGHT AND I LOST CONTROL SO THE CAR SPENT AROUND WE END UP ON THE LEFT SIDE. SEATBELT WAS NOT HELPING PROTECT US AT ALL MY DAUGHTER SEATBELT ALLOWED HER TO SLIDE UNDER BREAKING HER RIGHT FEMUR AND MY RIGHT FEMUR ON PLUS MY ANKLE HAD TO BE RECONSTRUCTED. AIRBAGS CAME OUT 30 MINUTES AFTER THE WRECK. *JB *DT IN TAMPA. STATE ROAD. STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. ACCELERATING ' PULL RIGHT AND THEN LEFT. WHEN GOT CAR, WENT THROUGH BARBED WIRE FENCES.

WIFE AND KIDS WERE COMING HOME AND BRAKES WENT TO THE FLOOR AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC AND MECHANIC STATED TO CONTACT TOYOTA FOR OPEN RECALL AND SERVICE CAMPAIGN. TOYOTA IS NO HELP WHATSOEVER

WAS DRIVING WHEN MY BRAKES WENT SOFT AND MY VSC WARNING POPPED UP ON MY DASHBOARD .NEVER HAD A ISSUE WITH CAR TILL NOW.I HAVE ABOUT 160K MILES ON IT.LOOKED ONLINE AND LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WITH THERE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE ABS ENGAGED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. GREEN'S TOYOTA OF LEXINGTON (630 E NEW CIRCLE RD, LEXINGTON, KY 40505, (859) 254-5751) DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ACCUMULATOR LEAKAGE AND THE ABS NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 119,000.

OVER TIME, MY DASHBOARD HAS MELTED AND HAS BECOME STICKY. I HAVE TRIED MY BEST TO DEAL WITH IT, BUT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. IT CAUSES A REFLECTION OF MY DASHBOARD ON MY DRIVER'S WINDOW, MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHEN I AM DRIVING (ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS SUNNY...AND I LIVE IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA...WHERE THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME IT IS SUNNY.) I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY CLAIM TO HAVE SENT OUT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE. THEY CLAIM THEY CAN'T FIX IT ANYMORE BECAUSE OF AN EXPIRED WARRANTY (WHICH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF...IF I WAS, I WOULD'VE FIXED IT ASAP). IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE DUE TO THEIR FAULTY MANUFACTURING.

RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT TIGHTENED UP ON A CHILD AND WOULD NOT RELEASE. WE HAD TO CUT THE SEAT BELT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT OIL LEAKED FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS VERY LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ED MORSE DELRAY TOYOTA (2800 S. FEDERAL HWY, DELRAY BEACH, FL) WHERE THE ENGINE GASKET WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

I PURCHASED A CAMRY FROM BOB (XXXX) IN 2007. THE CAR STARTED CONSUMING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL NOT LONG AFTER THE TOYOTA ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM LAUNCHED IN 2014. I DID NOT GET A NOTICE FROM TOYOTA. BOB (XXXX) INFORMED ME OF THE NEED TO RUN THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IN JULY 2015; WHICH WE DID. I WAS TOLD THE TEST "PASSED" EVEN THOUGH IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE CAR WAS BURNING A LOT OF OIL. THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON OVER & OVER AGAIN. I REQUESTED A 2ND TEST IN DEC 2015 AND I WAS TOLD AGAIN THAT THE CAR "PASSED" THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. FOR 3 YEARS I COMPLAINED TO BOB (XXXX) ABOUT THE SITUATION, INCLUDING THE CAR CHOKING WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE OR BRAKE; OIL PRESSURE LIGHT; ENGINE LIGHT; HAVING TO ADD OIL TO MY CAR UPON DRIVING IT FOR ABOUT 1000 MILES OR SO, ETC.. THIS ALL HAPPENED FROM 2015-2018. IN 2018, BOB (XXXX) TRIED TO TELL ME THAT MY CAR IS LEAKING OIL INSTEAD OF BURNING OIL. THIS WASN'T AN ACCURATE STATEMENT. SO, I WENT TO A TRUSTED INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO TOOK A DETAIL LOOK AT MY CAR AND CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR IS NOT LEAKING OIL AT ALL. I WENT BACK TO BOB (XXXX) & DEMANDED A 3RD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. AFTER MUCH ARGUING THEY AGREED TO IT. WE DID THE TEST AND IT FAILED IN DEC 2018. THIS CONFIRMED WHAT I KNEW ALL ALONG. YET THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM TO THE POINT WHERE THE SERVICE MANAGER WAYNE (XXXX) REFUSED TO TAKE MY CALLS. THEY TELL ME THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, WHICH IS VERY FITTING FOR THEM &TOYOTA. I CALLED TOYOTA INC. WHO ALSO REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED IN 2016. MY CAR IS BARELY AT 105,000 MILES WHICH IS BELOW THE TOYOTA EXTENDED WARRANTY LIMIT OF 150,000 MILES OR 10 YRS. THE FACT THAT I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE ISSUE WHILE IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY & WAS MISLEAD THE WHOLE TIME DID NOT COUNT FOR ANYTHING. OBVIOUSLY, THIS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE POSES A SERIOUS THREAT TO THE ENGINE & TO CAR OWNERS. REPAIRS ARE A MUST. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

MY VEHICLE'S BRAKES FAILED RESULTING IN REAR-ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT. THIS HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY GOING STRAIGHT AT 10 AM. MY VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT ABOUT 20 MILES/ HR WHEN I STEPPED FORCEFULLY ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SLOWED BUT I DID NOT LURCH FORWARD, MY SEAT BELT DID NOT TIGHTEN TO PULL ME BACK AND MY BAG PACK THAT WAS ON THE FRONT PASSENGER LEATHER SEAT STAYED WHERE IT WAS. MY VEHICLE BEHAVED AS IF I HAD NOT BRAKED. WHEN I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES, I COULD SEE ASPHALT BETWEEN MY VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT. MY VEHICLE'S FRONT BUMPER, GRILL AND HOOD WAS DAMAGED. THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF MINE HAD DENTS ON THE REAR BUMPER AND THE TRUNK. THERE WAS A THIRD VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THE ONE IN FRONT OF MINE THAT WAS ALSO DAMAGED, HOWEVER, I DO NOT KNOW THE EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE. THE IMPACT OCCURRED AT A LOW SPEED WHICH DID NOT CAUSE MY SEAT BELT TO TIGHTEN AND DID NOT CAUSE MY BACKPACK ON THE PASSENGER SEAT TO SLIDE FORWARD.

THERE IS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE AND TOYOTA IS SAYING IT IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUE, THAT HAS EXPIRED AND THAT I AM GOING TO HAVE TO FIX IT AND PAY FOR IT ALL OUT OF POCKET. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL NOT A WARANTY ISSUE. IT'S NOT FAIR OR RIGHT AND THEY SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTION ISSUES THAT ARE FLAWED. THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE BECAUSE THE LIGHT DOESN'T EVEN COME ON WHEN IT IS LOW, SO IF I DON'T CHECK OFTEN THEN I AM IN DANGER WHEN I AM DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE CAR TO DRIVE, NOT TO BECOME A MECHANIC.

HORRIBLE LOW-BEAM LIGHTING. TOYOTA RESPONSE IS "GIVE ME OVER $1,000 AND WE WILL REPLACE FIXTURES". I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS IN THE LAST 54 YEARS (ONE FOR 18 YRS) AND NEVER HAD HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS. TOYOTA OUGHT TO BE EMBARRASSED INTO AT LEAST REPLACING THEM AT COST. I'M GUESSING THE COATING ON THE LENS IS DEFECTIVE BECAUSE NOTHING ELSE HAS CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT, IT WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND LOWER BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT POWERED OFF AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO DRIVE AND BEGAN SHAKING. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND LATER TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PO171/02 SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. *JS

I WAS DRIVING MY VECHICLE YESTERDAY THAT WAS JUST IN THE SHOP SINCE SATURDAY SAYING THAT THEY REPLACED EVERYTHING THAT WAS WRONG BECAUSE PREVIOUSLY MY BREAKS LOCKED UP ON I-95 AND I COULDN'T STOP. I GOT THE VECHICLE BACK YESTERDAY AND I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND MY BREAKS FAILED AGAIN CAUSING ME TO REAR END THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME. I COULD NOT STOP. ABSOLUTELY NO BREAKS!! THE VECHICLE WAS IN MOTION TRYING TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I BELIEVE THE ABS BREAK ACULATOR / MODULE IN THE VECHICLE IS BAD. THE COMPANY WHOM I BOUGHT IT FROM I BELIEVE SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ACCIDENT CONSIDERING THEY'RE THE ONES WHO STATED THEY FIXED THE VECHICLE

DRIVING ON FREEWAY, POWER STEERING WENT OUT. PS LIGHT CAME ON PULLED OVER, TURNED CAR OFF FOR FEW MIN, STARTED IT UP AND WORKED OK. IT'S HPPEED 6 TIMES SO FAR.

SO IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY MY WINDSHIELD THAT HAD NO CHIPS AND WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION. AND PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. I WAS SITTING IN MY CAR ABOUT TO GET OUT WHEN I WATCHED THE WINDSHIELD CRACK BY ITSELF INDEPENDENTLY NOTHING HITTING IT NO CHIPS OR IMPERFECTIONS TO MAKE IT CRACK NO SOUNDS NOTHING IT STARTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN A SPIDERWEB FASHION AND CRACKED ALL THE WAY ACROSS MY WINDSHIELD AND KEEPS CONTINUING TO SPIDERWEB ACROSS THE ENTIRE WINDSHILD THERE WAS NO CHIPS INITIALLY NOTHING HIT IT NO PRESSURE AFTER TALKING TO SEVERAL PROFESSIONALS THEY ALSO CAN NOT SEE A REASON FOR THE CRACKED WINDSHIELD STATES IT LOOKS LIKE IT CRACKED FROM THE CENTER OUT. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR

I WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION AFTER THE VEHICLE ON MY LEFT STOPPED. A FORD PICKUP CAME BARRELING OUT OF NOWHERE, SWERVING AROUND THE OTHER VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THE DRIVER WAS GOING FASTER THAN HE CLAIMED ON THE POLICE REPORT (INCLUDED). WE COLLIDED IN THE INTERSECTION FRONT-LEFT-TO-FRONT-RIGHT. MY CAR WAS SPUN AROUND ABOUT `50 DEGREES TO THE RIGHT, ENDING UP ACROSS THE SIDEWALK. BOTH VEHICLES WERE TOTALED. THE OLTHER DRIVER'S AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND HE RECEIVED A CUT ON HIS FOREHEAD. MY TAKATA FRONT AND SIDECURTAIN AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, AND I WAS THROWN INTO THE DRIVER'S DOOR, BREAKING FOUR RIBS, A VERTEBRA, SHOULDER BLADE AND MY COLLARBONE. IN THE REBOUND TO THE RIGHT, MY RIGHT WRIST AND RIGHT ARM JUST ABOVE THE WRIST WERE BROKEN. THE FRACTURES WERE SET UNDER ANESTHESIA, AND I SPENT 8 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL AND ABOUT 7 WEEKS IN A CONVALESCENT/REHAB FACILITY. I AM NOW UNDERGOING WEEKLY OT FOR WEAKNESS, LACK OF MOBILITY, AND PAIN IN MY RIGHT HAND AND WRIST, AND POOR MOBILITY AND PAIN IN MY RIGHT SHOULDER.

ABS MODULE IS CONSTANTLY CYCLING . VCS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT ARE ON. THE BRAKES ARE SOFT. THE REPAIR IS APROX 3K DOLLARS

WHILE DRIVING, I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP. AFTER STOPPING QUICK, THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT TURNED ON FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS. I CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND IT TO BE 2.5 QUARTS LOW. MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS LESS THAN 2500 MILES AGO. EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION IS CAUSING A LOW OIL LIGHT AND POSSIBLE ENGINE FAILURE. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND UPDATED PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, BUT DUE TO MY VEHICLE BEING OVER 10 YEARS OLD, THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THIS PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER WHO REGISTERED IT AND GAVE ME PAPERWORK LISTING MY ADDRESS ON ALL OF THE FORMS. I JUST RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM FOR THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR DEFECT. I HAD BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH IT FOR A FEW YEARS BUT SINCE I RARELY DRIVE DURING THE DAYTIME IT WASN'T AN ISSUE UNTIL MY SHIFT CHANGED. SO NOW IT'S BROKEN AND TODAY, YEARS LATER, TOYOTA TELLS ME THAT THE WARRANTY INFORMATION WAS SENT TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN THE ONE I HAVE LIVED SINCE I PURCHASED THIS CAR. SINCE I DIDN'T REGISTER THE CAR AND ALL OF MY PAPERWORK HAD MY THEN AND STILL ADDRESS ON IT, I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD HONOR THE WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY SENT IT TO AN ADDRESS THAT WASN'T MINE. THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME THE ADDRESS BUT REFERRED ME TO MY STATE' DMV, WHO ALSO WILL NOT GIVE ME THIS PHANTOM ADDRESS WHERE MY INFO WAS SENT. COLONIAL TOYOTA REGISTERED THE CAR FOR ME SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MISTAKES WERE MADE IN THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AND NO WAY OF GETTING THE INFORMATION. TOYOTA IS DOING WHAT ALL BIG COMPANIES DO, PASS THE MISTAKES THEY MADE TO THE CONSUMER. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM ATOYOTA DEALER EVER AGAIN.

ABS ACTUATOR IS BROKEN, THERE WAN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE HYBRIDS UP UNTIL 150,000 MILES.

I HAD TAKEN MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP TO GET MY BRAKES AND ROTORS CHANGED ,AROUND SEPTEMBER OF 2018, ABOUT A WEEK LATER THE TRACTION LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHENEVER I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES . I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE PLACE WHERE I HAD GOTTEN THE BRAKES DONE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. I FINALLY TOOK MY CAR TO ANOTHER MECHANIC, SO THEY COULD DIAGNOSE THE CAR , WHEN I GOT BACK MY CAR, THE VSC, TRACTION ,AND BRAKE LIGHTS WERE ON. THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE ABS MODULE.

WATER PUMP REPLACED JANUARY 6, 2016 ( 69,307 MILES) AND JANUARY, 2019 (93,621 MILES)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS INOPERABLE. ADDITIONALLY, ON ONE OCCASION WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE TRUNK BECAME AJAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

THE VSC SYSTEM LIGHTS ARE GOING OFF. THE BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR ON AND THEN IT JOLTS SUDDENLY. NOW A BEEP IS GOING OFF EVERY TIME I START MY CAR.

MY CAR HAS ALL OF THE LIGHT ON DASHBOARD IS ON AND ON SCREEN IT SAYS "CHECK VSC SYSTEM"

MY AUNT BOUGHT BRAND NEW 2007 CAMRY AND TRANSFER TO ME 2-2018. NOTICE THAT ENGINE SOUND NOT RIGHT. HAVE TO CHECK OIL EVERY WEEK. ENGINE BURNING OIL A LOT, HAVE TO PUT 1 QUART EVERY 1200 MILES, ONLY 67500 MILES AND NOW STARTING TO HEAR KNOCKING NOISE. CALL TOYOTA AND THEY SAID WARRANTY EXPIRE. REPAIR AT OWNER COST.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. TAKES ABOUT 1-2 QUARTS EVERY 1000 MILES, OTHERWISE I RUN OUT OF OIL AND IT STARTS TO SMELL LIKE OIL WHEN I DRIVE OR WHEN CAR IS RUNNING. I WAS HEADED ON A TRIP TODAY WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO DRIVE A LITTLE FUNNY AND IT STARTED TO SMELL LIKE OIL AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CHECK IT AND I WAS LOW ON OIL. I PUT MORE OIL IN THE CAR AND HEADED BACK ON MY TRIP. I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CRUISE KICKED OFF AND JOLTED THE CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING 70MPH. AFTER THAT IT WAS HARD TO GET MY CAR TO SHIFT ABOVE THE 3RD RPM. CAR STILL HAS LESS THAN 150,000 ON IT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW THOUSAND MILES. IT HAS NO OIL LEAKS. THERE ARE NO LIGHTS THAT GO OFF, HAS HAD REGULAR AND SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE WITH RECORDS.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION

BRAKE FAILURE. WAS DRIVING IN RESIDENTIAL STREET (LOW SPEED) WHEN BRAKES STOPPED WORKING. HAD TO USE PARKING BRAKE. PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE WITH BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR TANK/FILTER, WHICH TOYOTA OFFERED TO SERVICE UNTIL 30 JUNE 2017. UNFORTUNATELY, NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH BRAKES UNTIL NOW--1 1/2 YEARS AFTER THE SERVICE OFFER HAD EXPIRED. SHOULD BE FULL RECALL. THE REASON WHY PROBLEM DID NOT SURFACE TILL NOW IS BECAUSE VEHICLE HAS LOW MILES (85,000 AFTER 12 YEARS).

THE BRAKES ON MY 07 TOYOTA CAMRY WENT "SOFT" AND THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN DRIVING AT ABOUT 35 MPH. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, WAITED, AND THE PROB. WENT AWAY. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS TURNED ON, AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM DISPLAYED WHEN AT A RED LIGHT ON A RESIDENTIAL AREA (25MPH). I TOOK THE TO TOYOTA FOR THE SECOND TIME, AND THEY SAID IT WAS AN ABS ISSUE, ACTUATOR AND 4 BRAKE FLUIDS. THE COST TO REPAIR IT IS $1926.54. THE DEALER ADVISED ME TO CALL TOYOTA, WHICH I DID, BC THERE HAD BEEN PROBLEMS WITH BRAKING IN 07 AND 08 TOYOTA CAMRYS. TOYOTA WAS INCREDIBLY UNHELPFUL (THIS DESPITE MY OWNING TWO TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS), EVEN THOUGH TOYOTA HAD ISSUED TWO EXTENDED WARRANTIES BECAUSE OF THE ISSUES WITH INTERMITTENT LOSS OF ASSISTED BRAKING REPORTED BY MANY CUSTOMERS, THE LAST ONE THROUGH JULY OF 2017. THE WOMAN I SPOKE TO INSISTED THAT SINCE THE CAR EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM "OUT OF WARRANTY" THERE IS NOTHING TOYOTA WAS WILLING TO DO.

THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD STARTED TO BECOME DISFIGURED AND A LITTLE UNEVEN - ENTIRE DASH BECAME VERY STICKY - LIKE IT HAD PARTIALLY MELTED. INITIALLY THOUGHT SOMEONE MAY HAVE SPILLED SOMETHING BUT NOTICED ENTIRE DASH WAS THE SAME FROM LEFT TO RIGHT HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THIS WAS A MORE COMMON PROBLEM AND MAY AFFECT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG UNDERSTAND TOYOTA DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL BUT DID FIX THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE DASH IF CUSTOMERS COMPLAINED CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD DO? I CALLED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK AFTER 1-2 DAYS. THEY HAVE NEVER CALLED BACK

I HAVE CONTINUOUSLY HAD ISSUES WITH MY CARS IGNITION COILS AND VSC SYSTEM. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND VSC SYSTEM LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND EVEN THOUGH I'VE SPENT THOUSANDS OF OD DOLLARS ON REPAIRS THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO POP UP EVEN WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND MULTIPLE REPAIRS. MY CAR MISFIRES AND TURNS OFF RANDOMLY THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE BUT I HAVE NO OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THE CAR MISFIRES IN IDLE,WHILE DRIVING AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS AND IT WONT TURN ON SOMETIMES UNTIL I CONNECT JUMPER CABLES TO THE BATTERY. WHEN I CONNECT THE JUMPER CABLES I NEVER NEED AN EXTRA SOURCE OF POWER I SIMPLY CONNECT ONE END OF THE CABLES TO THE BATTERY AND A FEW SECONDS LATER IT ALL THE LIGHTS TURN ON AGAIN AND THE CAR RESTARTS THE WHOLE SYSTEM.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY BRAKES GOT SOFT AND MY CAR WOULDN'T COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BREAK SO THAT I COULD AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. IT HAPPENED ON A CITY STREET AS WELL, BOTH WHILE I WAS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS DEVELOPED A SHINY,STICKY DASHBOARD. NOT ONLY IS IT STICKY BUT IT BECAUSE IT IS SO SHINY IT PRODUCES A GLARE SO SEEING THE ROAD BECOMES MORE DIFFICULT. THIS GLARE IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. I CALLED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT EXCEPT REPLACE THE DASHBOARD AT MY EXPENSE. THEY STATED A FEW YEARS AGO THERE WAS A PROGRAM TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARDS AS THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED BUT SINCE MY PROBLEM HAPPENED AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED I WAS OUT OF LUCK. WHY DIDN'T I GET NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OR THE ISSUE WITH THE DASHBOARD? I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW SO THEY HAD ALL OF MY INFORMATION IN THEIR DATABASE AND CONTACTING ME WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY EASY. I WAS GOING TO PASS THIS CAR DOWN TO MY DAUGHTER THAT JUST GOT HER LICENSE, BUT I AM HESITANT TO LET HER DRIVE THE CAR AS THE GLARE MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I DON'T WANT TO PUT MY DAUGHTER IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

THE CONDENSATION ON MY HEADLIGHTS ARE HORRIBLE. I HAVE HAD THEM CLEANED NUMEROUS TIMES BUT IT KEEPS COMING BACK. ALSO, MY HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM ARE INEFFECTIVE AND I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING WHEN I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAM TO GET ANY KIND OF LIGHTING TO SEE WHERE I'M GOING AT NIGHT

MY WIFE AND I BOUGHT A CERTIFIED CAMRY HYBRID FROM THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. EVEN THOUGH THERE IS A BUZZING NOISE FROM THE ORIGINAL PURCHASE, WE ASSUME THAT BECAUSE IT WAS A HYBRID THAT THAT WAS NORMAL. FOR 4 YEARS WE HAVE BROUGHT OUR CAMRY TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP FOR OIL CHANGES AND REGULAR SERVICE NEEDS. NEVER IN THE TIME HAD THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE BUZZING SOUND. RECENTLY THE ABS AND VSC LIGHTS CAME ON SO WE TOOK THE CAR IN TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS, AFTER THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US BUT THE COST WOULD BE AROUND $2,100 I DECIDED TO SEE IF I WOULD BE ABLE TO DO IT MYSELF AND AFTER GOOGLING THE PART I LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND SAW THAT THE NOISE WE HAVE BEEN HEARING FOR 4 YEARS IS COMING FROM THE SAME PART THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

BRAKES FAIL AFTER ALL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON REGARDLESS OF SPEED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE BRAKE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT HAD DIFFICULTY STOPPING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO A PARKING LOT BEFORE THE VEHICLE STALLED. ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FRANK FLETCHER TOYOTA (2209 S RANGELINE RD, JOPLIN, MO 64804) AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. TEN DAYS LATER, THE BATTERY INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AGAIN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 176,000.

MY TOYOTA DID NOT EXHIBIT THE STICKY DASHBOARD UNTIL JUNE OF 2017. I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL ONLY WENT UNTIL MAY 0F 2017 AND WAS REFUSED BY TOYOTA. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT IT WAS A DEFINITE FACTORY DEFECT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. NOW I HAVE THIS CONTINOUS GLARE WHICH AFFECTS BOTH DAY AND NIGHT VISABILITY.

THE BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS TURNED ON, AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM DISPLAYED. VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED CORRECTLY. I WAS ON THE HWY GOING 65 MPH, IN MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID WHEN THIS HAPPENED, TOTALLY LOST POWER, I WAS ABLE TO PILL OVER TO THE SIDE ROAD CALL FOR HELP. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS SITUATION FOR AN AUTOMOBILE. I FEEL LIKE THE PUBLIC IS BEING USED LIKE TEST DUMMIES BY TOYOTA.

BRAKE ACTUATOR WE WERE NEVER NOTIFIED OF ANY EXTENDED WARRANTY COERING THIS DEFECT. NOW WE ARE BEING TOLD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET WHEN WE THE OWNERS WERE NEVER NOTIFIED IN THE FIRST PLACE THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE UNTIL THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED AND WE EXPERIENCED AN ISSUE. HAD WE BEEN NOTIFIED WE NEVER WOULD HAVE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

WHEN DRIVING ONE DAY WITH MY NEW BORN IN THE CAR, THE LIGHTS ASSOCIATED WITH MY BRAKES ALL CAME ON. FOLLOWING, MY BRAKES STARTED REACTING FUNNY WHEN PUSHED ON THE PEDAL. THE DASH SAID SOMETHING ABOUT SVC SYSTEM CHECK VSC

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS FAILED. THE PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY DETACHED AND THE SUN VISOR COULD NOT BE USED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY DID NOT ALLOW THE SUN VISOR TO REMAIN IN ONE POSITION TO PROTECT AGAINST THE SUN. BOTH SUN VISORS WERE REPLACED BY A MANUFACTURER WARRANTED REPAIR APPROXIMATELY FOUR YEARS AGO, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SUDDENLY OIL CONSUMPTION HAS GONE UP DRASTICALLY. USING ADDITIONAL QUART OF OIL EVERY 750 MILES. TALK WITH TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE,ACCORDING TO THEM "I AM OFF MY OWN AS BECAUSE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED."

I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE CAR. THIS CAR HAS A DASHBOARD PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE SEVERE ACCIDENTS. ITS DASHBOARD IS BECOMING STICKY, SMELLY AND SHINY AS A MIRROR. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN DEVELOPING FOR YEARS AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. WHEN I CALL A TOYOTA DEALER ABOUT 3-4 YEARS AGO TO ASK WHETHER THERE WAS A RECALL OR OTHER SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THEY COULD DO NOTHING. THIS YEAR, THE PROBLEM IS BECOMING SEVERE SINCE THE SHINY DASHBOARD OFTEN BLINDS MY EYES AND I ALMOST HIT A WALKER. I GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND TONS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINS AND SOME LUCKY COSTUMERS GOT FREE REPLACEMENT. SO, I CALLED THE SAME DEALER AGAIN ASKING ABOUT THE POLICY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL SEVERAL YEARS AGO, BUT IT EXPIRED TWO YEARS AGO, SO THEY COULD DO NOTHING. THIS ANSWER IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING I CALLED THEM BEFORE. I THEN CALL THE HEADQUARTER. THE OPERATOR TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT A RECALL, BUT AN EXTENDED 10-YEAR WARRANTEE. SINCE MY CAR HAS BEEN MORE THAN TEN YEARS, TOYOTA WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DASHBOARD UNLESS I HAVE WRITTEN EVIDENCE THAT I CONTACTED TOYOTA BEFORE ABOUT THE DASHBOARD. MY COMPLAINS ARE AS FOLLOWS: (1)THIS DASHBOARD PROBLEM SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE IT CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS ACCIDENTS. AS MENTIONED, THE SPECULAR REFLECTION FROM THE SHINY DASHBOARD CAN BLIND THE DRIVERS AND MAKE THE DRIVING VERY DANGEROUS. TOYOTA MUST HAVE KNOWN THIS PROBLEM A LONG TIME AGO AND SHOULD NOTICE ALL COSTUMERS TO CHANGE THE DASHBOARD FOR FREE, INSTEAD OF FINDING EXCUSES TO REJECT MOST UNLUCKY CUSTOMERS. TOYOTA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE AND CARE ABOUT ITS CUSTOMERS' LIVES. (2)TOYOTA SHOULDN'T PUT THE BURDEN OF PROVIDING EVIDENCE ONLY ON COSTUMERS. THE REQUEST OF WRITTEN EVIDENCE THAT I CONTACTED THE DEALER BEFORE IS RIDICULOUS. THE FACT THAT THE DEALER FAILED TO PROVIDE ME A RIGHT SUGGESTION/SOLUTION BECOMES MY FAULT.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY'S WERE INSTALLED WITH A SUN VISOR THAT WAS LATER RECALLED DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE INNER PLASTIC BODY. ... MAKING THE ARM UNABLE TO HOLD THE VISOR IN PLACE EFFECTIVELY, OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER. I WENT TO TOYOTA WHO SAID THAT THE RECALL IS EXPIRED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FULL PRICE. I NEVER RECEIVED INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECALL.

THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING AND IT PUTS A GLARE IN FRONT WINDSHIELD DAY AND NIGHT WHICH MAKE IT HARD TO SEE. I BOUGHT CAR FROM ITS ORIGINAL OWNER AND IT WAS DOING THIS WHEN I GOT IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS RECENTLY DETAILED, AND COME TO FIND OUT, THIS IS A PERMANENT ISSUE.

AFTER THE CAR ENGINE ODOMETER HIT 70.000 THE CAR STARTED TO BURN OIL MORE THAN NORMAL. I TOOK THE CAR FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE CAR HAD VERY LITTLE OIL. SINCE THEN I HAD TO ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGE AT 78.000 AND 2 QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGE AT 83.000 MILES.

DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES MUCH LIKE THAT ON THE SIENNA WHEN IT HAD A PROBLEM. IT IS OUR SON'S CAR THAT WE DROVE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A WHILE SO WE DO NOT KNOW THE DATE THE PROBLEM STARTED.

DASH PAD IS STICKY AND SHINY AND LIGHTS FROM CARS, AND STREET LIGHTS REFLECT OFF OF IT INTO THE DRIVER'S EYES. IT OCCURS FROM ONCOMING VEHICLES WHEN ON NARROW ROADS AND LIGHTS FROM STORES AND STREET LIGHTS IN COMMERCIAL AREAS

WHILE DRIVING I SAW CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHTS COME UP AND IT OFF AFTER SOME TIME

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2007 CAMRY LE IS BURNING ABOUT 1QT/600 OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN I CHECKED IT. TOYOTA ADMITS THIS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND STILL NOT ISSUING A RECALL. I HAVE TO ADD OIL REGULARLY BETWEEN OIL CHANGES SO THAT MY CAR DOESN'T GET STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION, I BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP. FIX IS 5000-7000$, TOYOTA IS NOT WILLING TO FIX SINCE IT SURPASSED THE WARRANTY TIME PERIOD. I AM COMPLETELY HELPLESS. IT DRINKS OIL LIKE AND I CANT SEE ANY SIGNS ON THE GROUND.

THE DASH ON MY 2007 CAMRY IS STICKY AND SOFT. IT CREATES A GLARE THAT AT TIMES MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. IT ACCUMULATES DUST AND DIRT. I CONTACTED TOYOTA REGARDING ANY RECALL AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING. IN ADDITION BOTH VISORS HAVE FAILED WHICH ALSO APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR OF VEHICLE.

I HAD JUST SLOWLY TURNED RIGHT INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PUBLIC PARKING GARAGE AND WAS COASTING TO THE END OF THE SPOT WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I HIT THE BRAKE, BUT THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE IT CRASHED INTO A LARGE CONCRETE PILLAR AT THE END OF THE PARKING SPOT. THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT BUMPER, GRILL AND HOOD OF THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED, BUT THERE WEREN'T ANY OBJECTS AROUND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE FLOOR MATS WERE IN PLACE. TOYOTA SENT AN INSPECTOR. THE EDR REPORT IS ATTACHED. TOYOTA SAID THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE OR ACCELERATOR. THEY WOULD NOT HOWEVER ANSWER MY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EDR DATA, AND SPECIFICALLY HOW, IF THE CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN, I COULD HAVE BEEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, AND WHILE THE ACCELERATOR REMAINED DEPRESSED, SIMULTANEOUSLY DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS THE EDR DATA SHOWED. NOTE THAT MY CAR WAS UP-TO-DATE WITH ALL RECALLS WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PRESTIGE TOYOTA (16 MCKEE DR, MAHWAH, NJ 07430, 844-838-7792) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 98,430.

"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 CAMRY I'VE ALWAYS NOTICED THAT MY DASHBOARD WAS EXTREMELY STICKY AND SEEMED TO BE MELTING. MY WIFE NOTICED AND SAID IT WASN'T NORMAL SHE GOOGLE IT AND SAID THAT IT WAS A RECALL ON THE DASHBOARDS BEING DEFECTED. I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT STEP DO I NEED TO TAKE IN RECTIFYING THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GALAXY TOYOTA (LOCATED AT 750 NJ-36, EATONTOWN, NJ 07724, (732) 544-1000) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTIVATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 167,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL, EMERGENCY BRAKE, AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WHILE DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED TEMPORARILY WHILE COMING TO A STOP. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND OVER THE COURSE OF TWO YEARS, THE BRAKES BEGAN TO MAKE ABNORMAL SOUNDS. MARK JACOBSON TOYOTA (4516 DURHAM-CHAPEL HILL BLVD, DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA 27707, (919) 493-5599) WAS NOTIFIED AND DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A LEAK IN THE ACTUATOR, WHICH NEEDED REPLACEMENT.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE V6 BRAKES FAILED TO DEPLOY. ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK, I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT, NO BRAKES! I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND ALL I HEARD WAS HISSING AIR SOUND. I BELIEVE IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER FROM THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE. I HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS OF ANY KIND. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A LIFE ENDING EVENT. TOYOTA NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. WHERE IS THE RECALL?

TOYOTA CASE #1809103728. DASHBOARD IS MELTING. MOTHER NEVER RECEIVED THE NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL AND WAS NOT ADVISED WHEN SHE BROUGH THE CAR INTO THE TOYOTA DEALER. SPOKE TO NATASHA RAMIREZ, OPERATIONS SUPERVISOR AT TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS AND SHE ADVISED THERE IS NOTHING THEY AN DO. THEY ARE ALLOWING DANGEROUS VEHICLE ON THE ROAD AND ARE NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR ACTION TO FIX THE SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING AND CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF A FORD TRUCK. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED HEAD INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION; HOWEVER, THE DRIVER DIED AT THE HOSPITAL. THE DRIVER OF THE TRUCK SUSTAINED UNKNOWN INJURIES. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED AT THE SCENE, BUT THERE WAS NO FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

IN 2013, I SUSPECTED THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH OIL CONSUMPTION & ASKED THE MB SERVICE CENTER TO BEGIN INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE. AT THAT TIME, THE WARRANTY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WAS STILL ACTIVE. I RETURNED AFTER DRIVING 1,000-1,200 MILES & WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO ASCERTAIN WHETHER THERE WAS A TRUE ISSUE AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME $800 TO OPEN THE ENGINE. I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. IN EARLY 2016, I RECEIVED THE T-SB-0158-14 SERVICE BULLETIN FROM TOYOTA NOTIFYING ME THAT I COULD TAKE THE CAR IN TO HAVE THIS EXACT ISSUE RESOLVED AT NO COST. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE CULVER CITY LOCATION, BUT I RETURNED 3 HOURS LATER TO FIND THAT NO WORK HAD BEEN DONE. A MEMBER OF THE SERVICE TEAM ADVISED THAT THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK THAT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED BEFORE THEY COULD BEGIN THE CONSUMPTION TEST. THIS IS MY FIRST ISSUE WITH TOYOTA'S SERVICE. TOYOTA SHIFTED THE RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE THIS OIL LEAK FIXED ON TO ME EVEN THOUGH I MADE THEM AWARE OF AN OIL RELATED ISSUE MORE THAN 2 YEARS PRIOR. A KNOWLEDGEABLE SERVICE CENTER MEMBER WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT DEFECTIVE PISTONS AND RINGS IS A DIRECTLY RELATED CAUSE OF A LEAK. BEING THAT I WAS NOT A KNOWLEDGEABLE CONSUMER AT THAT TIME, THE SERVICE CENTER WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THIS RESPONSIBILITY ON TO ME. I HAD THE OIL LEAK REPAIRED AND ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED A 3RD TIME WHEN I CALLED TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT IN NOVEMBER 2016. THE PERSON WHO ANSWERED THE PHONE ASKED WHAT THE REASON WAS FOR MY VISIT. I EXPLAINED THAT I WANTED TO COME BACK TO INITIATE THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND WAS ADVISED THAT I HAD JUST MISSED THE CUT OFF AND THAT THEY WERE NOT REPAIRING ANY MORE VEHICLES AFTER OCTOBER 31, 2016. THIS IS MY SECOND ISSUE WITH CULVER CITY TOYOTA'S SERVICE. THERE WAS SECONDARY COVERAGE AVAILABLE FOR ME AT THAT TIME AND I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THAT OPTION. MY CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN ELIGIBLE FOR REPAIRS ON ALL THREE OCCASIONS

EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL USAGE. 1 PLUS QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES APPROX. ENGINE HAS APPROX 91000 MILES ON IT.

MY TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY IS LEAKING EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, THERE WAS A RECALL , BUT I DID NOT GET NOTIFICATION OF THIS PROBLEM ,UNTIL I WAS ONLINE SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS TO FIND OUT WHY MY CAR, WAS REQUIRING SO MUCH OIL, I SAW A ARTICLE WHICH STATED THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, I NOTIFIED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS, THEY DENIED MY CLAIM. I EVEN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR MAR JACOBS IN DURHAM N.C. MAR JACOBS STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO EXCEPT TRY TO GE ME TO BUY A NEW CAR, NO THANKS , I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED, BECAUSE THIS AFFECTS MY ENGINE AND IF WANT TO SALE MY CAR THE VALUE GOES DOWN, BECAUSE OF THIS MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I AM CONSTANTLY BUYING OIL FOR MY CAR EVERY WEEK , WHICH ADDS UP IN PRICE. I WOULD LIKE OR TOYOTA HONOR THE RECALL , ITS NOT MY FAULT THAT THIS HAPPENED TO MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WAS FAULTY, FELL DOWN, AND BLOCKED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED AND THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE DEALER (JONES JUNCTION TOYOTA, 1508 BEL AIR ROAD #2000, BEL AIR, MD, 410-879-6400) AND THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000. **TR CONSUMER STATED SINCE OUR ORGINAL TELEPHONE CALL WITH YOUR OFFICE, WE HAD THE BROKE VISOR REPLACED. WE HAD NO CHOICE SINCE WE COULDN'T SEE PROPERLY WITH THE VISOR IN THE WAY-THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. ATTACHED IS THE RECEIPT. THE DEALER GAVE US A SMALL DISCOUNT FROM THE REGULAR PRICE, BUT WE FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY TOYOTA AT NO COST TO US. UPDATED 10/30/18*JB

HAS MELTING DASHBOARD, EXTREMELY SHINY IN SUNLIGHT OR ANY OTHER LIGHT. DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF FRONT WINDOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE FAILED TO PROVIDE THE CORRECT READING AND THE ABS CONTROL MODULE AND EMERGENCY WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO THE COOLING COMPONENT OF THE AIR CONDITIONER FAILED TO FUNCTION. FURTHERMORE, WHILE AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO POWER DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

TOYOTA DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THEIR "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT" TEST ON MY CAR IN 2016 TO SEE IF IT QUALIFIED FOR THEIR KNOWN OIL CONSUMPTION COVERAGE AND REPAIR. IT DID NOT SEE THEIR CRITERIA. NOW MY CAR IS CONSUMING 1 QUART OF OIL NEARLY EVERY 1000 MILES AND THEY WILL NOT COVER THE PROBLEM.

ON MONDAY JULY 30TH, I TOOK MY 2008 TOYOTA SOLARA CONVERTIBLE INTO HILAND TOYOTA'S DEALERSHIP IN MOLINE, ILLINOIS AND DISCUSSED THE PROBLEM OF THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD THAT IS CURRENTLY MELTING IN MY CAR. I HAVE NOTICED THIS STARTING TO OCCUR SINCE JULY 16TH, 2018 WHEN I WAS MAKING A TURN AND MY FINGERNAIL GOT CAUGHT WITHIN THE DASHBOARD. I AM ALSO BLINDED BY THE REFLECTIONS ON THE WINDSHIELD CAUSED BY THE STICKY DASHBOARD AND IT'S CREATING A FILM ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE THROUGH, EVEN WITH MULTIPLE CLEANINGS. HILAND TOYOTA OBSERVED THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE SINCE IT WAS AFTER THE MAY 31ST, 2017 EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAVE ALSO ATTACHED PICTURES OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT IS FILMED UP AFTER CLEANING IT THE DAY BEFORE, AND OF THE FINGERNAIL PRINT. THIS PROBLEM HAS AFFECTED NUMEROUS TOYOTA AND LEXUS OWNERS AND TOYOTA HAS NOT DONE MUCH ABOUT THIS ISSUE. EVEN WITH THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OF MAY 31ST, 2017, MULTIPLE CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS HAVE MENTIONED THAT TOYOTA DOESN'T HAVE THE REPLACEMENT PARTS AND SAID OWNERS ARE WAITING YEARS AFTER FIRST CONTACT TO GET REPAIRS STARTED. IN MY CASE, I CONTACTED TOYOTA (FILE NUMBER #1808222394) ABOUT FIXING THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD AND THEY RESPONDED THAT AFTER MAY 31ST, 2017, THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS IS THE FIRST TOYOTA THAT I HAVE PURCHASED, HOWEVER, THIS DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD IS MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR AND MANY OTHERS AGREE, RESULTING IN LEGAL CONSEQUENCES. I AM CURRENTLY FILLING OUT A COMPLAINT WITH THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION, IN CASE SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN. I AM ALSO APPALLED THAT A COMPANY THAT REGARDS ITSELF AS A 'LEADER' IN THE AUTO INDUSTRY CAN LET PEOPLE WALK OFF THEIR DEALERSHIP DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR THAT THEY ENGINEERED, PRODUCED, AND OBVIOUSLY DON'T STAND BEHIND.

DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY STICKY AND REFLECTIVE WHEN THE SUN HITS IT CAUSING LITTLE TO NO VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING

TOYOTA HAS ADMITTED ON 2011 IN ITS TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT THE ENGINE DEFECT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY EXHIBITS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION DUE TO THE DESIGN DEFECT OF THE 2AZ-FE ENGINE. IT REQUIRES A PISTON ASSEMBLY CHANGE TO MINIMIZE OIL CONSUMPTION HOWEVER THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO REPAIR IT AT THEIR OWN COST, THIS IS A VERY SIGNIFICANT REPAIR COSTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX. THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE DUE TO AN ARBITRARY 150,000 MILE LIMIT AND A VERY LIMITED TIME WINDOW BETWEEN 2015 TO 2016, AFTER I HAD ALREADY SPENT MONEY ON REPAIRS. THIS ALSO DIMINSHES THE VALUE OF MY CAR AND MORE IMPORTANTLY EXPOSES OUR FAMILY TO SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUES. THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO LOSE OIL, AND THE ENGINE BECOMES COMPLETELY DEPLETED OF OIL AT THE TIME OF AN OIL CHANGE (EVERY 3,000 MILES) WHICH CAN LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE IN A MOVING VEHICLE AND POTENTIAL INJURY AND LOSS OF LIFE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT AND TOYOTA REFUSES TO FIX.

ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDS REPLACING. BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT COME ON,NO A/C AND SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0. BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T WORK DURING EPISODES WHICH COULD CAUSE YOU TO GET REAR ENDED. THESE EPISODES OCCUR WHILE IDLING AND DRIVING.

CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHTS COMES ON AND CAR STOPS ON ROAD. RESTARTS AFTER POWERING OFF AND ON.

TAKATA RECALL..MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS DEVELOPED A SHINY STICKY COAT OVER SEVERAL MONTHS WHICH COVERS THE ENTIRE DASH. THE SHININESS OBSTRUCTS DRIVING VISIBILITY AND I HAVE FOUND NOTHING ON THE MARKET TO CLEAN THIS AREA. THE CAR ORIGINALLY CAME FROM FLORIDA AND WAS GARAGE KEPT WHEN I PURCHASED. SEEMS LIKE SOME SORT OF MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY IS MELTING AND GIVING OFF FUMES THAT WE CAN SMELL AND COULD BE HAZARDOUS TO OUR HEALTH. WE HAVE DEVELOPED A COUGHS SINCE THIS HAPPENED. THE FUMES ARE COATING THE INSIDE OF OUR WINDSHIELD AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA USA AND TOYOTA JAPAN AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN WE HAD DIFFICULTY SEEING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD.

ALMOST A COLLISION. I HAVE A DASH THAT IS STICKY AND THE GLARE FROM THE SUN REFLECTING OFF THE STICKY DASH IS A VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD. ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS I COULD HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT. IT EVEN HAPPENS ACCIDENT NIGHT WHEN THE STREET LIGHTS REFLECT OFF THE DASH. I HAVE HAD THE CAT IN MOTION AND STABLE AND HAVE HAD NEAR ACCIDENTS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. BIT THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED BY THE MAKER. I HOPE AND PRAY IT DOES NOT TAKE A DEATH OR SEVERAL DEATHS BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN TO GET THIS MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM FIXED. THANK YOU. (XXXXX). PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

MELTING DASHBOARD. BOUGHT A USED 2007 CAMRY. THOUGHT THE DASHBOARD WAS JUST OVERDONE WITH ARMOUR ALL. FOUND OUT THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS BUT THE DANGEROUS GLARE IS THE BIGGEST CONCERN. CALLED TOYOTA. THEY SAID THERE WAS A TIME LIMIT ON THIS DEFECT BEING FIXED. THEY HAVE ADMITTED THIS IS A DEFECT BUT WONT FIX IT.

II HAVE A 2007 CAMRY THAT HAS A DEFECTIVE SUN VISOR AS IT NOW HANGS AND OBSTRUCTS MY VISIBILITY. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND I WOULD EXPECT TOYOTA TO HONOR IT AND FIX IT WITHOUT CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER.

STICKY DASHBOARD, GLARE. DRIVING HAZARD, OBSTRUCTION OF DRIVER'S VIEW. KENNY KENT TOYOTA DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. GAVE ME 800-331-4331 TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE. SPOKE TO 2 PEOPLE. I DID NOT RECEIVE WARRANTY NOTIFICATION. CANNOT DRIVE CAR WHEN SUN IS SHINING. TOLD I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR DASH REPLACEMENT.

SINCE MOVING TO SAN ANTONIO, TX 8/30/16 MY DASHBOARD HAS BEGUN MELTING AND HAS BECOME TACKY AND SHINY. THE GLARE HITS MY WINDSHIELD MAKING IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT TIMES. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR RECALL REPAIRS ON 10/31/16 AND ASKED IF THERE WERE ANY OTHER KNOWN ISSUE. I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT UNTIL 10/25/17 AND WAS INFORMED I MISSED THE 5/25/17 DEADLINE. THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ISSUE AND NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL SUN VISORS FALLING DOWN

DASH BOARD IS EXTREMELY STICKY. IT CAN NOT BE CLEANED OR TOUCHED WITH OUT STICKING TO IT OR GOUGING OUT A CHUNK OF IT. EVEN IN THE COLD WEATHER IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN.

THE BREAK LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT COME ONE AND ALL GAUGES STOP WORKING AND JUST START JUMPING AROUND. THE AC DOESN'T WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE IDOL AND WHILE DRIVING. IF DRIVING, I CAN'T TELL HOW FAST I'M GOING BECAUSE THE GAUGES STOP WORKING. THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES THEN GOES BACK TO NORMAL BUT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR DOES NOT STAY UP. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT CAN BLOCK MY VISION. THIS OCCURS EITHER WHILE STATIONARY OR MOVING, SPEED DOESN'T SEEM TO EFFECT IT

TAKATA RECALL STICKY DASHBOARD, CAN'T SEE WITH A BAD GLARE

THE DASHBOARD IN MY CAMRY IS TACKY AND STICKY. I HAVE THE SERVICE BULLETIN BUT THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS EXPIRED. IT IS REALLY A BAD ISSUE. TOYOTA HAS MADE BILLIONS FROM SELLING CARS IN AMERICA ALONE AND THEY ALLOWED DEFECTIVE MATERIALS TO USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THEIR CARS AND THAT IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER. THIS SHOULD BE A TOTAL RECALL IN PLACE OF A SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD SHOULD SOMEONE COME IN CONTACT WITH THIS DEFECTIVE MATERIAL IN A CRASH.

INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILURE....WHILE DRIVING BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS CUT ON AND SPEEDOMETER TACHOMETER TEMPERATURE GAUGE GAS GUAGE AND ODOMETER QUIT WORKING. THE AC ALSO BLOWS HOT AIR AND CAR SHAKES WHEN STOPPING OCCASIONALLY.THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS AND STARTED AROUND 170000 MILES. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIND PROBLEM. THAT'S HALF OF THE VALUE OF THE CAR. IT'S NOT WORTH THAT MUCH MONEY TO FIX. TOYOTA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL FOR THIS. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN

THE DASHBOARD GLARE AND STICKY FALLING APART CONDITION IS OBVIOUSLY AN ISSUE. WE WERE NEVER INFORMED THAT TOYOTA WAS REPLACING THESE DASHBOARDS. I HAVE A 2007 CAMRY WITH ONLY 80,000 MILES ON IT AND WANT TO HAVE THE DASHBOARD REPLACED. OBVIOUSLY THEY KNOW IT WAS DANGEROUSLY SHINY AND STICKY AS THEY REPLACE THEM FOR 10 YEARS. THE NATIONAL TOYOTA PEOPLE TOLD ME IT WAS TOO LATE FOR THEM TO HELP ME EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW IT'S AN ISSUE! WHAT IF ANYTHING CAN I DO?

GOT WARNING CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND ALL ABS, ENGINE, BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON

THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM ERROR CAME ON RECENTLY. IT ALSO CAME ON A FEW YEARS AGO AND THEN WENT AWAY AFTER A FEW DAYS. IT'S NOW BEEN UP FOR WEEKS. THE ERROR THAT IS TRIGGERING IS C1391, AND THE REPAIR SHOP SAYS THIS IS DUE TO AN ABNORMAL LEAK IN THE ACCUMULATOR. ALL OF THE BRAKE-RELATED LIGHTS ARE ON CONSTANTLY A FEW SECONDS AFTER STARTING UP THE CAR AND STAY ON UNTIL SHUTTING IT OFF. SOMETIMES THE BRAKES RANDOMLY SHUT STOP FUNCTIONING AS EXPECTED AND DO NOTHING WHEN COMPRESSING. I DIDN'T REALIZE THIS WAS A RECALL WHEN THE CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY (AND EVEN AFTER TOYOTA EXTENDED THE WARRANTY DUE TO THE FACT THIS IS SUCH A WIDE AND PERVASIVE ISSUE); OTHERWISE, I WOULD HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO GET IT REPAIRED AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE. THIS REPAIR WAS QUOTED TO COST A MINIMUM OF $2,200. IT WOULD BE IDEAL IF TOYOTA WOULD FIX THIS PART SINCE IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND SINCE NO OTHER MAJOR PART OF THE CAR IS FAULTY, EVEN THOUGH THE CAR HAS ALMOST 200,000 MILES ON IT. I FEEL TOYOTA HAS PUT LIVES AT RISK BY NOT ACTIVELY PURSUING TO CONTACT OWNERS OF THIS MODEL VEHICLE SINCE THE PART THEY PUT ON THESE CARS IS SO FAULTY.

WHEN I DRIVE THIS CAR I PRESS THE BRAKES AND THEY DO NOT ENGAGE OR THEY ENGAGE ON A DELAY. . WHILE DRIVING I ATTEMPTED BRAKE TO SLOW ENTRY INTO UPHILL DRIVEWAY. ALL LIGHTS ON DRIVER PANEL LIT UP. BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND TO SLOW DOWN OR STOP. WITH FULL FORCE I DEPRESSED BRAKE PEDAL. THIS IS HAPPENING FROM LAST COUPLE OF MONTHS.

VSC ABS MIL LIGHTS CAME ON IN DASH AND BRAKES SANK TO FLOOR, BUT RESTORED CONTROL AFTER RESTART. CHECKED DIAGNOSTIC CODES AND IT SHOWED CODES FOR HYBRID BATTERY P0A80 AND P3025. REPLACED AUXILARY BATTERY WITH OEM FROM TOYOTA. NOW CAR SHUTS DOWN WHILE IN MOTION DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITHOUT ANY WARNING AND LOSE GAS PEDAL RESPONSE. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR INCLUDING A 5 YR OLD AND 9 MONTH OLD BABY. COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA AS VEHICLE ONLY HAS APPROX 93000 MILES AND TOYOTA DECLINES TO ASSIST WITH RESOLVING ISSUE EVEN THOUGH WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED TO 10YR/150K MILES. DEALER MISDIAGNOSED VEHICLE CODES. BRAKES FAILED SECOND TIME, THIS TIME CAUSING CAR TO SLOWLY BUMP INTO OBJECT AND SCRAPING BUMPER AT LOW SPEED. CHECKED ALL FUSES. VEHICLE NOW CONTINUOUSLY SHUTS DOWN RANDOMLY ON SLOW OR HIGH SPEEDS, WHILE MAKING A TURN, MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, CROSSING A HEAVY INTERSECTION.

2007 CAMRY STARTED CONSUMING OIL LIKE CRAZY AROUND 100,000. COOLANT ALSO STARTING TO DISAPPEAR.

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE, IT IS CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH SEEING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING UPHILL WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO DISENGAGE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CASE NUMBER: 1803150976 WAS OPENED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 136,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED THE CRUISE CONTROL REQUESTED POWER, ELECTRONIC FAILURE BETWEEN CRUISE, ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION, CAUSING ENGINE RPM TO ACCELERATE WITH NO POWER FROM TRANSMISSION. I HIT BRAKE PEDAL TO KEEP ENGINE FROM BEING DAMAGED. FEW SECONDS LATER TRANSMISSION THUMPED/CLUNKED. TRANSMISSION DAMAGED FROM THAT POINT. I DROVE CAR WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL TILL NEW TRANSMISSION WAS INSTALLED. UPDATED 10/15/18*JB

AROUND 100,000 MILES I NOTICED MY CAMRY ENGINE WAS CONSUMING MORE OIL THAN IT DID PREVIOUSLY. NOW IT'S CONSUMING AROUND A QUART EVERY 1200 MILES.

AIR COMPRESSOR NO GOOD HAD IT REPLACED AT THE DEALER BUT NOT WORKING, REPLACED ENGINE DUE TO OVER USE OF OIL DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS NORMAL USE

OIL LIGHT WAS FLASHING, SO I TOOK TO MY MECHANIC. HE SAID THE OIL HAD USED 3QTS IN LESS THAN A MONTH (LAST OIL CHANGE) AND THAT THE COOLANT WAS BONE DRY. IT TURNS OUT ITS A HEAD GASKET/ENGINE ISSUE. HE LET ME KNOW HE HAD MULTIPLE 2007 CAMRYS WITH THIS ISSUE, AND THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS AN OPEN 'CAMPAIGN'? OR RECALL. I HAVE LEFT A MESSAGE FOR THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING, A GLARE FROM THE MELTED DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 1805140953. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 80,000.

WHEN EXPOSED TO WARM TEMPERATURES, THE DASHBOARD BECOMES HIGHLY GLOSSY CAUSING AN EXCESSIVE REFLECTION OFF THE WINDSHIELD. THIS CONDITION CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO THE REDUCED VISIBILITY CAUSED BY THE GLARE AND REFLECTION OFF THE WINDSHIELD. THIS ISSUE IS RELATED TO A PRIOR EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT TOYOTA HAD ON THE VEHICLE (WHICH COVERED ONLY CRACKED AND/OR STICKY/MELTING DASHBOARDS. THE WARRANTY PERIOD FOR THE CRACKED OR MELTING DASHBOARDS ENDED 5/31/17 -- HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT ADDRESS THE SAFETY ISSUE CAUSED BY THE GLARE/REFLECTION WHICH IS MORE SERIOUS.

ON MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID, AS I WAS REVERSING, THE BRAKES ALL OF A SUDDEN ENGAGED, BRAKING SO HARD IT FELT LIKE I HIT SOMETHING. SOON AFTER, THE BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS TURNED ON, AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM DISPLAYED. VSC WARNING LIGHTS AND DISPLAY MESSAGE INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF AND TURN BACK ON ARBITRARILY.

THE ENGINE STARTED TO BURN OIL EXCESSIVELY ABOUT 1 YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2013 AND NOW IN 2018 THERE ARE 2 CYLINDERS WITH LOW PRESSURE AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE. THE CAR IS NOT GIVING A CODE : CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND THE CAR CUTS COMPLETELY OFF WHILE DRIVING, NO CONTROL OF BRAKES OR ACCELERATION, VERY DANGEROUS. I WAS TRAVELING ON A CITY STREET AND THE CAR JUST CUT COMPLETELY OFF AND ALL LIGHTS AND BELLS ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH BOARD. THE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM ULTIMATELY BURNT THE ENGINE UP AND TOYOTA WOULD NOT REPAIR THE CAR.

ON JULY 9, 2018, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND TO CHECK ON INTERMITTENT ENGINE KNOCKING. WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE PISTONS AND COST FOR REPAIR WOULD BE $4,400.00. REPAIR WOULD INCLUDE: KITS, CLAMPS, HOSES, PISTONS AND PISTON PINS. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A SECOND TOYOTA DEALER WHO SUGGESTED EITHER A USED ENGINE OR A REBUILT ONE. ESTIMATED COST WOULD BE BETWEEN $5,000.00 AND $6,000.00

MY DASH IS MELTING, STICKY AND VISIBILITY IS IMPAIRED BY GLARE. I JUST FOUND THIS INFORMATION OUT THROUGH A FRIEND. I PLACED A CALL TO TOYOTA THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY DASH. I DID NOT RECEIVE SAID RECALL. THIS GLARE IS IMPAIRING MY VISIBILITY. TOYOTA SAID THE RECALL WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY WILL NOT HONOR REPAIR. AGAIN I DID NOT RECEIVE RECALLS. I HAVE BEEN AT THE SAME ADDRESS FOR 20 YEARS. I DID RECEIVE THE OTHER 2 RECALLS AND THEY HAVE BEEN COMPLETED. NOW ASK YOURSELF IF I ADDRESSED THE OTHER TWO RECALLS WHY WOULD I NOT HAVE ADDRESSED THIS ONE. THE CAMRY HAS 76680 MILES ON IT IT HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER. I THINK NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO. SAFETY HAZARD WORK WITH ME HERE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE REFLECTION OF THE SUN ON THE MELTING DASHBOARD CREATED A MIRROR LIKE EFFECT AND OBSCURED THE DRIVER'S VISIBILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (TOYOTA OF TURNERSVILLE, 3400 NJ-42 TURNERSVILLE, NEW JERSEY 08012) WHERE THEY DETERMINED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD EXCEEDED THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY FOR A RECALL REPAIR. THE SPECIFIC RECALL INFORMATION WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,370.

(1) ABS MODULE HAS AN INTERMITTENT SHORT. WHEN IT FAILS THE SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ON DASH COME ON, TEMP GAUGE AND TACH FLUCTUATE, AND THE A/C STOPS WORKING. THE SHORT IN MODULE WAS DIAGNOSED BY A TOYOTA DEALER. I UNDERSTAND ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS GO BAD BUT FOR IT TO EFFECT THE SPEEDOMETER AND A/C SEEMS LIKE A POOR DESIGN. (2) ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS MY ENGINE OIL LIGHT HAS COME ON. APPARENTLY THERE ARE ISSUES WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IN SOME MODEL TOYOTAS WITH PISTON RINGS FLAWS. DEALER HAS DONE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS BUT UNABLE TO REPRODUCE PROBLEM.

BRAKES DEPRESS MORE AND TAKE MORE PRESSURE TO BRAKE. 06/4/2018. CAR VIBRATES WHEN BRAKING OVER 50 MILES PER HOUR. BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS REPLACED 10/22/2016

DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 70MPH WHEN THE DASHBOARD LIT UP WITH SEVERAL LIGHTS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY, BRAKE AND ABS, AND A CHECK VSC SYSTEM INDICATION. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO CRUISE AND CAREFULLY APPLY THE BRAKE AT SEVERAL INTERVALS TO STOP. THIS IS AN ONGOING AND KNOWN ABS ACTUATOR PROBLEM IN 07 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS. THE TOYOTA DEALER WILL NOT COVER THE $3K COST TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR BECAUSE IT IS PAST THE 10 YEAR LIMIT. PLEASE EITHER ISSUE A RECALL OR EXTEND THE WARRANTY. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR CONSUMERS.

ISSUE 1: RECALL ON STICKY DASH REGISTERED WITH QUALITY IMPORTS OF FWB IN 2016 AND NEVER RESOLVED. I CHECKED BACK WITH THEM REPEATEDLY AND WAS TOLD THE PART WAS ON BACK-ORDER. THEY HAVE NOW MOVED LOCATIONS. ISSUE 2: DRIVER'S SIDE SUN-VISOR WILL NOT MAINTAIN POSITION. IT FLOPS DOWN IN DRIVER'S VISION. BOTH ISSUES RESULTED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

TOYOTA RECALL - THE ENGINE IS BURNING TOO MUCH OIL WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO FAIL AND OIL TO BURN AT AN ACCESSIVE RATE. I HAVE COMPLAINTED OF THIS TO A THE PRIORITY SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I HAVE TO PUT OIL IN THE VEHICLE OFTEN. THERE WAS A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH TOYOTA ADMITTED THERE WAS A PROBLEM HOWEVER I WAS NEVER INFORMED EVEN WHEN I CONSTANTLY COMPLAINED OF THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE HAS FALTY PARTS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO FIX THESE PARTS

MY DASHBOARD HAS BECOME VERY SHINY AND STICKY. TOYOTA HAS DECLINED TO FIX IT. IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE THE ROAD AND I ALMOST RAN INTO A PARKED CAR DUE TO REDUCED VISIBILITY.

STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH CAR OVERHEATING. REPLACED WATER PUMP BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND HAD THE CODE FOR A MISFIRE. ENDED UP BEING THE HEAD GASKET. THIS CAR IS WELL MAINTAINED. IN RESEARCHING THIS, I HAVE FOUND THAT SEVERAL TOYOTA OWNERS HAVE HAD HEAD GASKET ISSUES AND THERE WAS ALSO A RECALL ON THE 4RUNNER HEAD GASKET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP IN A TIMELY MANNER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD TO BE DEPRESSED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE STOPPED. IN ADDITION, THE CHECK VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL AND TWO OTHER UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SMITHTOWN TOYOTA (360 EAST JERICHO TURNPIKE, SMITHTOWN, NY 11787, (844) 547-4559) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 198,000.

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS STICKY, CRACKING DASHBOARD FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND IT PROGRESSIVELY GETS WORSE EACH SUMMER. IT STARTED OUT A LITTLE TACKY WHEN IT HAD GOTTEN HOT FROM THE SUMMER HEAT AND IT HAS PROGRESSED TO A STICKY, GOOEY MESS THAT CANNOT BE PROPERLY CLEANED. IT REMINDS ME OF THOSE OLD AUBURN COLORED FLY STRIPS WE USED TO HANG FROM THE CEILING WHEN WE WERE KIDS. CRACKS STARTED APPEARING LAST SUMMER AND NOW SEVERAL MORE HAVE APPEARED THIS SUMMER. I WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF A RECALL AND I JUST FOUND IT ONLINE THIS MORNING WHILE SEARCHING FOR A CLEANING SOLUTION. I PLAN ON OWNING THIS VEHICLE FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 5 YEARS AND I FEAR THE DASHBOARD WILL BE AN ABSOLUTE DISASTER BY THEN.

STICKY, SHINY DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD HAS GOTTEN SOFT AND GOOEY AND IS NOW VERY SHINY. IT MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD ON A SUNNY DAY. I HAVE LOOKED IT UP ON LINE AND IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM. SUPPOSEDLY TOYOTA NOTIFIED OWNERS AND OFFERED TO REPLACE SOME OF THEM BUT WE MOVED AND WERE NEVER NOTIFIED. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I CANT FOR THE LIFE OF ME UNDERSTAND WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A FULL BLOWN RECALL. AGAIN, ON A SUNNY DAY THERE IS SO MUCH GLARE FROM THE DASH ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT.

1. BACKGROUND THE VEHICLE DASHBOARD BECAME "STICKY" ON OR ABOUT JUNE 12, 2018. THE ENTIRE DASH IS NOW COVERED WITH A GLUE-LIKE RESIDUE. THE TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM (ZE6) COVERING THIS PROBLEM EXPIRED ON MAY 31, 2017. TOYOTA HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE THE DASH UNDER THE WARRANTY PROGRAM (TOYOTA CASE #'S 1806131876, 1806210691). 2. SAFETY-RELATED ISSUES A. ON WARM, SUNNY DAYS IN DIRECT SUNLIGHT, THE STICKY DASH HAS A VERY BRIGHT SHINE. THE SHINY DASH PROJECTS A GLOSSY, TEXTURED IMAGE OF THE DASH ONTO THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THIS CAN OCCUR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS EITHER STATIONARY OR MOVING. THIS CONDITION IMPEDES MY FIELD OF VISION AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO FOCUS AND CLEARLY SEE THE ROAD AHEAD, OTHER VEHICLES, AND PEDESTRIANS. B. DURING THE SUMMER SEASON, INTERIOR CAR TEMPERATURES CAN REACH BETWEEN 130 AND 170 DEGREES. WHAT TOXINS ARE BEING RELEASED IN THE CAR INTERIOR FROM THE INTERACTION OF EXTREME HEAT, UV RADIATION, AND THE GLUE-LIKE RESIDUE? WHAT ARE THE SHORT AND LONG TERM HEALTH RISKS FROM INHALING POTENTIALLY TOXIC AIR IN A CONFINED SPACE WHILE DRIVING? SUMMARY BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY ISSUES NOTED ABOVE, MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE RECALLED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT I AM DRIVING AN "UNSAFE" VEHICLE THAT IS ENDANGERING MYSELF, OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD, AND PEDESTRIANS. NO DRIVER SHOULD HAVE TO DRIVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE DUE TO A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT WHICH RESULTS IN DIMINISHED ROAD VISIBILITY AND POTENTIALLY INTERIOR CAR TOXINS. THEREFORE, THIS IS NO LONGER A WARRANTY ISSUE BUT A SERIOUS "SAFETY" ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED.

I JUST FOUND OUT THAT MY BRAKE ACTUATOR IS FAILING. TOYOTA APPARENTLY ISSUED AN 'ENHANCED WARRANTY' RATHER THAN A RECALL TO FIX THIS KNOWN DEFECT DESPITE THE SAFETY RISKS FOR ALL DRIVERS IF ANOTHER DRIVER'S BRAKES FAIL. I AM UNDER THE MILEAGE BUT ABOUT A YEAR BEYOND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY DATE. TOYOTA CORPORATE WILL NOT COVER THE FIX AND SAID THIS IS THEIR COMPANY POSITION. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL DRIVERS. (WHEN I BRAKE THE BRAKES MAKE A 'BARKING SOUND.' THIS IS WHAT PROMPTED GOING TO THE DEALER.)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND HAD A STICKY RESIDUE ON THE SURFACE. WHILE DRIVING, THE GLARE OF THE SUN OFF THE DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO CLEARLY SEE THE ROAD. THE DEALER (LUSTINE TOYOTA, 14227 JEFFERSON DAVIS HWY, WOODBRIDGE, VA 22191, (703) 494-1800) INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH TOYOTA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED FOR THE REPAIR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 154,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SPOUSE WAS DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP, THE DRIVER HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOOK WHEN STOPPING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (TARBOX TOYOTA, 3671 QUAKER LN, NORTH KINGSTOWN, RI 02852, (401) 884-5438) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. *TT

THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME VERY STICKY AND SHINNY TO THE POINT IT IS REFLECTIVE ON THE WINDSHIELD RIGHT IN YOUR MAIN VIEW AREA.

ENGINE BURNS ONE QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES.TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND SAYS IT'S NORMAL FOR A VEHICLE TO BURN OIL AFTER TIME.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID STARTED EXPERIENCING AN ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED ON DASH, "CHECK VSC SYSTEM", ADDITIONALLY ALL THE INDICATOR LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AT THE END OF MARCH 2018. I HAVE AN OBD2 READER AND THE FAULT CODE WAS "C1391". I WAS ABLE TO ERASE THE CODE AND DASHBOARD RETURNED TO NORMAL BUT MESSAGE AND LIGHTS RETURN 2-3 DAYS LATER. IN MID-JUNE 2018 I TOOK THE CAMRY TO TOYOTA TO REPAIR IT. THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC TEST ($109) TO TELL ME WHAT I ALREADY TOLD THEM REGARDING THE CODE. I KNEW THAT WAS THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY PROBLEM. THEY GAVE ME A A QUOTE OF $1895 FOR PART AND TAX AND AN ADDITIONAL $340 PLUS TAX FOR LABOR. I PICKED UP MY CAR, DID NOT HAVE THE $2400 TO GET THE WORK DONE (PARTS ALSO WOULD TAKE 2 DAYS TO GET). THEY DID WARN ME AGAINST DRIVING THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT WAS FIXED. THE TECHNICIAN ALSO POINTED OUT THE ODD MOTORIZED NOISE THE ACTUATOR WAS MAKING WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS OFF. HE SAID IT SHOULDN'T MAKE ANY NOISE WHEN IT WAS OFF. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH ON FORUMS, I FOUND THERE WAS A TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM ZE1 SPECIFICALLY FOR MY VEHICLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (SEE ATTACHED). IT WAS ISSUED IN JULY 2014 TO OFFER FULL REPLACEMENT AND REPROGRAMMING AT NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER. HOWEVER, IT HAD DATED CONDITIONS AND WAS ONLY APPLICABLE IF THE LIGHTS AND MESSAGES CAME UP ON DASH. ALTHOUGH THE SOUND HAS OCCURRED SINCE I PURCHASED THE USED CAR IN JAN 2010, I DID NOT RECEIVE LIGHTS OR MESSAGE UNTIL MARCH 2018 BUT THE GRACE PERIOD RAN OUT ON JULY 2017. TOYOTA SHOULD HONOR THE EXTENSION OF THE REPLACEMENT PROGRAM WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS IF THEY WON'T PROACTIVELY RESOLVE IT PRIOR TO THE INDICATED SIGNS. TOYOTA IS WARNING ME TO FIX THIS AT MY COST OR RISK BRAKE FAILURE AT ANY TIME.

THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL. THERE WAS A PREVIOUS RECALL HOWEVER, I WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE BURNING OF THE OIL IN THE ENGINE. FOR OVER 2 YEARS, I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE OIL BURNING IN MY CAR AND HAVE CALLED NUMEROUS OF TIMES TO COMPLAINT THAT MY OIL LIGHT WAS ON WITH A FEW WEEKS OF GETTING A OIL CHANGE. I PAID NUMEROUS OF TIMES FOR ADDITIONAL OIL FOR MY CAR AND TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES BECAUSE THERE WAS NO OIL IN MY CAR. I WAS TOLD THE CAR IS OLDER AND THE MORE MILES ON THE CAR, THE VEHICLE WILL BURN LOTS OF OIL. I HAD MY CAR IN THE SHOP MANY TIMES FOR OIL CHANGES AND REPAIRS FOR PREVIOUS RECALLS HOWEVER, I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE ENGINE OIL BURNING RECALL IN MY VEHICLE. AFTER BEING NOTIFIED BY A RENTAL CAR REPRESENTATIVE AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ABOUT AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, I CALLED PRIORITY CHEVROLET GREENBRIER TO GET THE TEST DONE SINCE I HAVE BEEN TAKING MY VEHICLE TO THAT PRIORITY DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF THE SPEED OF GETTING AN APPOINTMENT FOR MY OIL CHANGES. I WAS TOLD I NEED TO GO TO PRIORITY TOYOTA TO HAVE IT DONE SINCE MY CAR IS A TOYOTA. NEVER ONCE HAVE A SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ADVISE ME OF THE BURNING OF OIL WITH 07 CAMRY. NOW THAT I HAVE THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DONE, THE SERVICE REP SAYS THAT THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED EVEN THOUGH I WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE RECALL AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY $2,200 FOR THE REPAIR. I BELIEVE, I AM ENTITLE TO THIS REPAIR KNOWING THAT TOYOTA NEVER NOTIFIED ME AND THAT I HAVE BEEN HAVING THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS AND NOT ONE SERVICE PERSON HAS THE DECENCY TO INFORM ME OF THIS RECALL.

MY VISOR BROKE AND WILL NO LONGER STAY IN PLACE, THIS IS OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW WHILE DRIVING. WHEN LOOKING UP THIS ISSUE I FOUND A OLD RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PART. "2007-2011 TOYOTA CAMRY'S WERE INSTALLED WITH A SUN VISOR THAT WAS LATER RECALLED DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE INNER PLASTIC BODY. ... MAKING THE ARM UNABLE TO HOLD THE VISOR IN PLACE EFFECTIVELY, INCREASING THE RISK OF IT OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER." THIS SHOULD NOT BE BROKEN, AND IF THERE WAS A PREVIOUS RECALL, I WOULD TO HAVE THIS FIXED.

FAULTY ABS ACTUATOR AND PUMP LEADING TO DIFFICULT BRAKING. PRIMING NOISE APPARENT DURING DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED. NEVER RECEIVED NOTICE OF SERVICE RECALL CAMPAIGN FROM TOYOTA A FEW YEARS BACK. SADLY, IT IS NOW A FEW MONTHS PAST THE 10-YEAR WARRANTY AND TOYOTA WILL NO LONGER SERVICE THE REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND CRACKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIPTON TOYOTA (1700 W OAKLAND PARK BLVD, FORT LAUDERDALE, FL 33311, (954) 790-6137), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,000.

I OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID I HAVE HAD HIS CAR FOR 4 YEARS AND HAVE BEEN VERY SATISFIED WITH IT TILL YESTERDAY AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY ALL THE SUDDEN THIS LOUD BUZZING NOISE STARTED I TAPPED THE BRAKES AND HAD NO BRAKES I WAS GOING 55MPH AND HAD THE BRAKE TO THE FLOOR WITH VERY LOL BRAKE I HAD TO SHIFT DOWN TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN THANK GOD NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME OR I WOULD HAVE WRECKED. THIS IS A FAULTY PART FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ABOUT AND IT'S SERIOUS ! THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL MATTER IT'S THE BRAKING SYSTEM AND BRAKES ARE NEEDED ! MY CAR HAS OVER 150000 SO IT DID NOT QUALIFY FOR THE SAFETY CAMPAIGN. ALSO MY UNDERSTANDING IS THERE HAD TO BE A PROBLEM BEFORE IT COULD BE COVERED ! IF I WOULD HAVE WRECKED WITH MY GRANDCHILD IN THIS VEHICLE I WOULD HAVE A LAWSUIT AGAINST TOYOTA ON THIS MATTER !! THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AND SHOULD BE RECALLED !

I HAD THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR REPLACED AT MY OWN EXPENSE BECAUSE ITHE VISOR WAS ROTATING DOWNWARD AND DETACHING FROM THE CEILING BLOCKING MY VISION WHILE DRIVING. A LITTLE WHILE LATER I RECEIVED A "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTICE" FROM TOYOTA ABOUT THIS VISOR PROBLEM. I STILL HAD THE REPAIR RECEIPT SO I MAILED IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY REIMBURSED ME. NOW IT IS BROKEN AGAIN. IT COMPLETELY FALLS DOWN WITH NO SUPPORT WHAT-SO-EVER AND DETACHES FROM THE CEILING FREQUENTLY. I HAVE A STRING WITH A CLOTHES PIN TO HOLD IT PARTIALLY UP BUT MY VISION IS STILL BLOCKED SOME AND THE CLOTHES PIN DOESN'T HOLD IT VERY LONG. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. I HAVE NOT ABUSED THIS VISOR IN ANYWAY. I STILL HAVE THE PAPERWORK FOR THE REPAIR AND THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTICE LETTER. THERE IS NO NUMBER ON THIS LETTER BUT AT THE BOTTOM IN TINY LETTERS IS ZTT CAMRY N5E086-00000803-104 IF THIS IS ANY HELP. I LIVE IN A DIFFERENT STATE NOW BUT DON'T KNOW IF THIS MAKES ANY DIFFERENCE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE USED CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO MALFUNCTION AND THE POSSIBLE ISSUES THAT MAY ARISE SHOULD I BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE ESC WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND A BEEPING SOUND WAS HEARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (FOX TOYOTA, 228 FOX FAMILY LANE, CLINTON, TENNESSEE 37716) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS AWAITING REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ENGINE BURNS 1.5 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. TOYOTA TOLD ME THAT THE TSB EXPIRED AT THE END OF 2016 AND WERE UNWILLING TO PAY FOR ANY REPAIRS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT NOTICED A STICKY SUBSTANCE ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GLARE FROM THE SUN ONTO THE WINDSHIELD MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE DRIVER TO SEE THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 162,000.

ABS, SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, RPM AND A/C JUMPS ON AND OFF ALL OVER THE PLACE. I TOOK IT TO A TOYOTA DEALER, COULD NOT FIND WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM BUT THEY ASSUMED IT MAY BE THE ABS MODULE OR SOME OTHER MODULES MAY NOT BE TALKING TO EACH OTHER. I HAVE RESEARCHED ON LINE TOYOTA CAMRY FORUMS AND AND FOUND THEY ARE LOTS OF TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS WITH THE SAME ISSUES. THIS IS A VERY SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IM NOT ABLE TO SEE AT THE SPEED MY CAR IS GOING WHEN DRIVING IT BECAUSE TACHOMETER GAUGES AMONG THE OTHERS GAUGES WORKING INTERMITTENT (ON AND OFF) I REQUEST FOR TOYOTA TO PLACE A RECALL FOR ALL TOYOTA CAMRY HAVING THIS MAYOR SAFETY ELECTRONICS PROBLEMS. I WOULD NOT MIND PAYING FOR REPAIR IF TOYOTA DEALER KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS BUT THEY DON'T KNOW AND IF THE REPAIR DID NOT EXCEED OCER THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR SOMETHING THAT THE MANUFACTURE HAS FAILED TO ADDRESSED AND FIX. THANK YOU.

MY 07 CAMRY 2.4L CE, HAS AN EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAVE TO FILL OIL IN THE ENGINE EVERY 1000-1500 MILES WITH 1-2QT.

DASHBOARD CREATES A VERY SHINY SURFACE MAKING IT HARD TO PROPERLY SEE THE ROAD. IT LOOKS LIKE IT IS MELTING. WHEN I TOUCH IT, IT STICKS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHILE I DRIVE. I LIVE IN FLORIDA SO I HAD TO PUT A DASHBOARD COVER WHICH STILL DOESN STAY FIXED.

THE SUN VISOR AT DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BECOME DETACHED. IT CAN NO LONGER BE HELD IT ITS POSITION. PLEASE SEE PICTURE ATTACHED. TOYOTA HAD ISSUED A RECALL ON 08/01/2012 (DETAILS AVAILABLE AT THIS LINK: HTTP://MEDIA.FIXED-OPS.COM/TOY_CAMPAIGNS/POL12-03.PDF), HOWEVER, AS PER TOYOTA, FREE REPAIR/REPLACEMENT IS ONLY APPLICABLE "7 YEARS FROM THE DATE-OF-FIRST-USE (REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE)". I HAVE SERVICED MY TOYOTA AT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP EVERY 5,000 MILES FROM 2012 TILL DATE, HOWEVER, I WAS NEITHER INFORMED OF THIS RECALL NOR HAD THE ITEM REPLACED BY TOYOTA PROACTIVELY DUE TO RECALL ISSUED. HENCE TOYOTA MUST NOT ASK ME TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR NOW.

DASH IS MELTING ESPECIALLY IN HOT WEATHER.

CAR HAS BEEN USING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 500 MILES SINCE 2014

COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE!!I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT WHEN MY BRAKES WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND A LOT OF LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASHBOARD, I COASTED TO A STOP LUCKILY WITHOUT HITTING ANOTHER CAR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS EVER HAPPENED, I HAVE NO WARNING LIGHTS INDICATING THERE IS OR WAS AN ISSUE AND I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC THAT IS TELLING ME THAT IT HAS A FAULTY BRAKE PART #4405030660. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH AND IT LOOKS LIKE TOYOTA SELLS AN UPDATED PART REPLACEMENT FOR THIS FAULTY ORIGINAL PART, PART COST IS $1200 PLUS $700 LABOR. READING MANY FORUMS I'M FINDING OUT THAT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE THAT HAVE HAD COMPLETE BRAKE FAILURE OVER THE YEARS WITH THIS SAME ISSUE AND ID LOVE TO KNOW WHY THIS ISN'T A RECALL BUT A PUNISHMENT FROM TOYOTA AND A DEATH SENTENCE JUST WAITING TO HAPPEN.

MY 2007 TOYOTA SOLORA CUTS OFF AS I'M DRIVING! I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR FOUND OUT IT HAS A FEW RECALLS ! I'M SCARED , THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY CAR?

WHEN YOU PRESS THE PUSH START BUTTON TO START THE CAR WHEN IT IS PARKED, IT USUALLY TAKES 5-6 TRIES BEFORE IT TURNS ON IN THE MORNING WHEN LEAVING FOR WORK. THE LIGHT WILL STAY RED AND WON'T TURN GREEN. I GET A MESSAGE THAT SAYS CHECK VCS SYSTEMS. IT HAPPENS WHEN I LEAVE THE CAR FOR LONGER PERIODS. IT IS NOT INFREQUENT. IT IS VERY TIME CONSUMING AND INCONVENIENT.

MELTING, STICKY AND SHINY DASHBOARD. THE SHINY DASHBOARD CREATES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD MAKING A POOR VISIBILITY. THE UNSAFE AND FAULTY DASHBOARD IS PREVENTING A GOOD VISIBILITY DAY OR NIGHT. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS FOR 10 YEARS ONLY. I ALSO CONTACTED TOYOTA AND ALSO STATED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED AND THEY COULD NOT HELP ME WITH THE PROBLEM. THE CAR CONTINUES TO BE IN SERVICE UNTIL I FIND A SOLUTION. THE DEALER SAID THAT IT WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE FAULTY REPAIR.

HOOD OPEN WARNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARD AND CHIME ACTIVATES WHILE DRIVING ON SURFACE STREETS AND FREEWAY. I STOP TO CHECK HOOD AND IT IS SECURE. LIGHT AND ALARM WILL CLEAR AND THEN A FEW MILES LATER IT WILL GO ON AGAIN. WHEN CAR IS PARKED AND CAR ALARM IS ACTIVATED, THE CAR ALARM WILL START SOUNDING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, WITH NOBODY NEAR THE VEHICLE. I HAVE READ THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THESE TWO CONDITIONS ALSO, AND BELIEVE THESE TWO CONDITIONS ARE RELATED. IT IS AN ANNOYANCE TO MY NEIGHBORS AS WELL AS MYSELF, AND IF DRIVING ON THE ROAD THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF PULLING OVER TO CHECK THE HOOD LATCH TO SILENCE ALARM AND WARNING LIGHT. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS.

ANTI LOCK BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILED AT APPROXIMATELY 104,000 MILES. A WARNING LIGHT JUST CAME ON THE DASH AND WE TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE THE FOLLOWING DAY. TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE ADVISES THERE IS NO RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. THEY HAVE ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS OR 150,000, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. OUR VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED 10 YEARS AND 10 MONTHS AGO SO IT'S NOT COVERED, EVEN THOUGH OUR MILEAGE IS 2/3 OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. WE FEEL IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL SINCE IT IS A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE FOR THESE VEHICLES.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE 2.4L 4 CYL, CONSUMES OIL AT A STAGGERING RATE. DUE TO THIS INCREASED RATE OF OIL CONSUMPTION, INCREASED MAINTENANCE COSTS INEVITABLY OCCUR. THIS OIL CONSUMPTION OCCURS ANY TIME THE CAR'S ENGINE IS RUNNING, OCCURRING EVEN MORE AT HIGH SPEEDS OF OPERATION. THE CAR WILL OCCASIONALLY LURCH WHEN BEING DRIVEN, CREATING OPPORTUNITY FOR AN ACCIDENT TO OCCUR IN THE WRONG CONDITIONS. BEFORE DRIVING FOR PROLONGED HIGH SPEEDS, I CHECK THE OIL LEVEL TO ENSURE THERE IS ENOUGH TO PREVENT A SEIZED ENGINE. THE RESULTS OF SUCH A PROBLEM WOULD BE CATASTROPHIC AT HIGH SPEEDS. THESE INCREASED MAINTENANCE COSTS AS WELL AS THE POTENTIAL DANGERS CAUSED BY THE INCREASED OIL CONSUMPTION OF MY CAR PROVIDE MORE THAN AMPLE JUSTIFICATION FOR AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD AT A SPEED OF 35 MILES PER HOUR AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" LIGHT TURNED ON MY DASHBOARD AND THE BRAKE OF THE CAR BECAME LOOSE. WHEN I TRY TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN BY APPLYING THE BRAKE, IT WOULDN'T LET ME DO SO. I WAS APPROACHING THE TRAFFIC LIGHT AND I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE TOO HARD SO THAT THE CAR CAN STOP. FINALLY, I WAS ABLE TO STOP IT BY APPLYING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE.

VSC SYSTEM SUDDENLY FAILED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING AND BREAKS WOULD NOT WORK

STICKY DASHBOARD. CAUSES VISIBILITY HAZARD DUE TO SHINY GLARE. TOYOTA DID NOT NOTIFY AHEAD OF THEIR WARRANTY EXTENSION. RIGHT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP DID NOT MENTION AFTER SERVICE VISITS. TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE, SAYS IT IS ,MY FAULT FOR NOT KNOWING AHEAD OF TIME THAT MY DASHBOARD WOULD ONE DAY MELT. CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED AND HAS ONLY 55K MILES. SHAME ON TOYOTA.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN THE HORN SOUNDED, AND WE NOTICED FLAMES SHOOTING OUT OF THE DRIVER'S DOOR PANEL. WHEN THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT, IT WAS CLEAR IT HAD ORIGINATED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR CONTROLS, AND WAS LOCALIZED TO THAT AREA. THE MALFUNCTION WAS RELATED TO THE VISIBILITY: POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS. THIS INCIDENT IS RELATED TO A RECALL. THE RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 12V491000. (10/12)

BURNING 1 QT OF OIL EVERY 600 MILES

I JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE USED AT A DEALERSHIP ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THE BURPING NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKE ACTUATOR AND THE CONSTANT RUNNING NOISE EVERY 7 SECONDS WAS THE PART NEEDING TO BE REPLACED AGAIN . TOYOTA STATED I HAD JUST MISSED THE 10 YEAR EXTENSION ON THE PART REPLACEMENT , EVEN THOUGH THE CAR HAS 70K MILES ON IT ,AND WOULD HAVE TO PAY APPROXIMATELY 1700-2600$ FOR THIS REPLACEMENT. RECALL THIS PART TOYOTA! HOW LONG NHTSA ?

MY CAR IS COMSUMING 13/4 QUARTS OF OIL FOR 1200 MILES

MY TOYOTA CAMRY SE 2007 MODEL CONSUMES EXCESSIVE OIL. THE OIL GONE AT 2400 KM AFTER I CHANGED THE OIL. AND THE PAINT RIGHT ABOVE THE DOOR AND ON THE SPOILER START GETTING PEELING OFF.

CAR IS BURNING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000-1200 MILES, TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND HE STATED IN THE LONG RUN THIS CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO KNOCK AND OR FAIL. I JUST HAD A NEWBORN AND AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY WIFE AND CHILD.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAMRY AND AS I APPROACHED TRAFFIC STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION. I BEGAN TO APPLY THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN AND STOP WHEN THE BRAKES EFFECTIVELY QUIT. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING LIGHTS AND WARNING HORNS BEGAN GOING OFF AND I SWERVED OFF THE ROAD TO AVOID HITTING THE STOPPED CARS IN FRONT OF ME. I DOWN SHIFTED THE TRANSMISSION AND SET THE PARKING BRAKE TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT CAUGHT ME BY SURPRISE AND I AM JUST GLAD I WAS DRIVING AND NOT ONE OF MY 16 YEAR OLD TWIN BOYS! I WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THE PARKING LOT OF A CLOSE BY GAS STATION WHERE I NOTICED THE 'CHECK VSC', 'BRAKE' AND 'ABS' LIGHTS WERE ALL ILLUMINATED. AT THIS POINT THE BRAKES FELT AS IF THE POWER BRAKING WAS INOPERATIVE. I SLOWLY DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND AFTER DOING A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, THE SERVICE TEAM REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THE MECHANIC FOUND THE' 'BRAKE ACTUATOR IS CONTINUALLY RUNNING. LOSING PRESSURE.' ALTHOUGH THERE I WAS ABLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT, HAD THE AREA TO THE RIGHT OF THE ROAD NOT BEEN CLEAR, I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY HIT SEVERAL CARS STOPPED AT THE INTERSECTION.

MY CAR BURNS ONE QUARTET OF OIL FOR EVERY 1000 MILES , ALTHOUGH THERE IS NO OIL LEAKAGE ON EITHER ENGINE OR GROUND. THERE IS NO SMOKE EITHER. TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HAS REFUSED TO ADMIT THAT BURNING 3 QUARTETS OF OIL FOR EVERY 3000 MILE IS NOT NORMAL . THIS CAR IS A TOYOTA CAMRY SE 2007

THE DASHBOARD IS MADE OF A PLASTIC THAT DETERIORATES OVER TIME. THE EFFECT IS A STICKY COATING WHEN THE DASHBOARD IS EXPOSED TO WARMTH. TOYOTA EXPANDED THE WARRANTY FOR 10 YEARS. MY CAR DID NOT EXHIBIT SYMPTOMS DURING THAT TIME, OR WHEN CHECKED, HAD NOT BEEN EXPOSED TO HEAT (THE CAR IS GARAGE KEPT). DASHBOARDS SHOULD NOT WEAR OUT. TOYOTA WAS SOLD A DEFECTIVE MATERIAL. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY TOYOTA WOULD NOT INSIST THAT CUSTOMERS ARE MADE WHOLE FOR THIS (THE REPAIR IS OVER $1,200) RATHER THAN RISK LOSING LOYAL (FORMERLLY LOYAL) CUSTOMERS. MY WIFE AND I HAVE OWNED 5 TOYOTAS SINCE 1980, AND CURRENTLY HAVE TWO. THE SHINY DASH CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD. OUR 2007 HAD OTHER SERIOUS DEFECTS THAT TOYOTA REPAIRED. WE WILL SHOP ANOTHER BRAND NEXT TIME.

JUST PURCHASE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE FROM STERLING MCCALL TOYOTA A FEW MONTHS AGO AND NOW JUST FINDING OUT THAT THE CAR HAS A OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE WITH NO INDICATION THAT THE ENGINE HAD EVER HAD AND PROBLEMS NOW IT'S A THE ENGINE HAS POSSIBLY BLOWN OUT OR LOCKED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE IT WILL NOT START. I PAID FOR THIS VEHICLE IN FULL IN CASH FROM THE DEALER I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW TO GET MY MONEY BACK FOR THE VEHICLE SALE PRICE AND THE OTHER MINOR REPAIRS THAT I MADE TO THIS VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE COULD HAVE KILLED ME AND MY CHILDREN IT JUST TURNED OFF WHILE WE WERE DRIVING HOME DURING THE DAY, ALMOST CAUSED A CAR ACCIDENT.

MY CAR IS EXCESSIVELY BURNING OIL. I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. I HAVE MY OIL CHANGE EVERY 3,00 TO 5,000 MILES AT THE TOYOTA DEALER. MY OIL LEVEL WOULD GO LOW BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. MY HUSBAND WOULD CONSTANTLY CHECK AND ADD OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. MY HUSBAND ASKED ME TO ASK THE TOYOTA DEALER TO CHECK TO SEE IF I HAD AN OIL LEAK. THE DEALER TOLD ME I DID NOT HAVE AN OIL LEAK AND THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY MY OIL LEVEL WAS GOING LOW BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. AFTER MY HUSBAND DID SOME RESEARCH, HE FOUND OUT THE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR ENGINES EXCESSIVELY BURNING OIL. TOYOTA AND THE DEALER KNEW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THAT TYPE OF ENGINE BURNING OIL EXCESSIVELY AND THEY DID NOT TELL ME! WHO IS GOING TO FIX THIS, IT'S NOT MY FAULT?!

FAULTY ABS CONTROLLER AFFECTING EVERYTHING FROM THE BATTERY CHARGING, AC, ABS AND VSC CONTROL SYSTEM WORSE CASE CAUSING BRAKES TO FAIL.

VSC WARNING CAME ON INCLUDING TRACTION, ABS, BRAKE, + 2 WARNING LIGHTS. THE ABS PUMP KEEPS MAKING NOISE EVERY 5 TO 10 SECONDS EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS OFF. THE BRAKES FEEL DIFFERENT. THIS HAPPENED WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70MPH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AND THE RPM NEEDLE MOVED TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP. AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE CONTACT SHIFTED TO THE PARK POSITION, REMOVED THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH, AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE FOLLOWING DAY, THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO TOYOTA TREASURE COAST (5101 SE FEDERAL HIGHWAY STUART, FLORIDA 34997) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FLOORMAT GOT CAUGHT BETWEEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE CARPET OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT A SPRING WAS FOUND NEAR THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO REMOVE THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE FLOORMAT WHILE DRIVING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE IS BURNING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. THERE IS SOME SMOKING COMING FROM THE TAILPIPE AS WELL. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 77,000 MILES ON IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD A STICKY RESIDUE AS WELL AS CRACKS. THE GLARE FROM THE STICKY SUBSTANCE WAS IMPACTING THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER (BILL PENNEY TOYOTA, 4808 UNIVERSITY DR. NW, HUNTSVILLE, AL 35816, (256) 837-1111) DIAGNOSED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY CAMPAIGN, BUT INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. *TT *TR

TOYOTA HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION -MY 2007 CAMRY HAS 53K MILES AND HAS STARTED USING APPROXIMATELY 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1K MILES. THIS IS EXCESSIVE. I WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

WAS DOING A 3000 MILE OIL CHANGE 3/29/2018 AND ONLY 1.5 QUARTS CAME OUT. CALLED THE DEALER WHO SAID ITS OUT OF WARRANTY, CANT DO ANYTHING FOR US. WE BOUGHT THIS CAR USED FROM THEM MAY 2017, THEY DIDN'T TELL US ABOUT THE TSB. ALL OIL CHANGES HAVE BEEN NORMAL UNTIL LAST WEEK. CROOKS!

CAR ACCELARTED WITHOUT STEPPING ON GAS PEDAL ON ITS OWN IN A PARKING LOT, TOOK REPETITIVE AND FORCEFUL PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE TO CONTROL CAR FROM CONTINUING INTO A WALL. MECHANIC (NOT DEALER) TESTED AND PROBLEM DIDN'T APPEAR. WHEN DRIVING CAR INTO HOME HOME PARKING SPOT, BACKING UP TO POSITION PLACE, THE CAR ACCELERATED ON IT OWN AGAIN AND STOPPED ONLY WITH FORCEFUL BRAKE PRESSURE.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BEEN BLOWING BLUE SMOKE SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR BACK IN 2014, WHICH I PURCHASED THROUGH A DEALERSHIP. AFTER ANYTIME I START MY CAR AFTER SITTING FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS IT WILL BLOW BLUE SMOKE EACH TIME. I GET MY OIL CHANGED WAY MORE OFTEN THEN I SHOULD TO TRY AND PREVENT THE SMOKE, I CHECK MY OIL ONCE A WEEK, AND NO MATTER WHAT I DO IT CONTINUES TO BLOW BLUE SMOKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER (WILLS TOYOTA LOCATED AT 318 SHOSHONE ST W, TWIN FALLS, ID 83301) WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 128,000.

THE DASHBOARD HAS RECENTLY STARTED "MELTING" AND HAS BECOME STICKY AND SHINY, CREATING A VERY DISTRACTING GLARE WHILE DRIVING IN THE SUNLIGHT THAT OBSTRUCTS MY VISIBILITY. ALTHOUGH TOYOTA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY PREVIOUSLY FOR THIS PROBLEM, I WAS NOT HAVING THIS ISSUE AT THE TIME THE WARRANTY WAS OFFERED. WHEN I CALLED THEM UP ASKING THEM TO REPLACE THEIR DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD, I WAS TOLD MY VEHICLE WAS "TOO OLD" TO QUALIFY AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY HUNDREDS (PERHAPS THOUSANDS?!) OF DOLLARS OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THEIR OWN SAFETY HAZARD. SAFETY HAZARDS CAUSED BY TOYOTA'S OWN NEGLIGENCE SHOULD NOT BE THE CUSTOMER'S FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX!

MY WIFE WAS RUN OFF THE ROAD GOING ABOUT 55MPH. SHE CENTERED THE FRONT OF HER CAR INTO A TELEPHONE POLE. THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. CAR WAS TOTALED.

MY VEHICLE DOES NOT BURN ENOUGH OIL. I HAVE ZERO OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES. TOYOTA IS A GREAT COMPANY. EMPLOYEES SHOULD GET A RAISE TODAY.

USED NEARLY 4 QRTS OF OIL IN LESS THEN 3,000 MILES CAUSING CHECK OIL LIGHT TO COME ON. ADDED 4 QRTS. JUST BOUGHT CAR FROM WEST HERR TOYOTA. DEALER DID A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND CLAIMED CAR USED 1.2 QRTS IN 1100 MILES AND SAID ITS NORMAL. THEY TOPPED OFF OIL AND ENGINE IS DOWN NEARLY 2 QRTS AFTER DRIVING 800 MILES. DEALER LIEING ABOUT HOW BAD IT IS. TAKING CAR BACK TO SHOW THEM .

THIS CAMRY BURNS 1 QUART OF OIL ALMOST WEEKLY AND IS ALWAYS NEEDING TOYOTA'S SUGGESTED 5W 20 ADDED. IF THIS CAR WERE NOT CHECKED WEEKLY IT WOULD BURN UP. TOYOTA HAS BEEN CONTACTED BUT REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING.HAS BEEN BEEN GOING ON SINCE 90000 MILES.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ABS BREAK ACTUATOR FAILURE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING OUTSIDE OF THE 10 YEAR WARRANTY. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO REIMBURSED FOR THE REPAIRS. *JS

BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILURE

SUN VISOR KEEPS FALLING INTO THE LINE OF VISION AND WE BUMP OUR HEADS GETTING IN OR OUT OF THE VEHICLE. VERY DANGEROUS.

TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE 4 THE UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION OF THESE VEHICLES. MAKE THEM TEST IT UNDER 32 DEGREES AND THE RPMS WILL ALMOST ALWAYS INCREASE AND DECREASE ABRUPTLY THOUGH GIVING GAS AT A STEADY PACE. IT'S HAPPENED EVERY YEAR EVERY WINTER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. THE PEDAL FIX/RECALL WAS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO THOSE OF US WHO SUSPECT IT IS AN ENGINE OR ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT MUST BE TESTED IN COLD COLD WEATHER AND UPON THE CAR JUST STARTING TO RUN. IT DOES SEEM TO SUBSIDE AS THE ENGINE WARMS BUT ON THE NEXT COLD DAY THE CAR TRIES TO ACCELERATE ITSELF AGAIN

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A BUSY CITY STREET THE 'CHECK VSC SYSTEM' MESSAGE SUDDENLY APPEARED ALONG WITH MANY OTHER WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH AND A WARNING SOUND. BRAKING AND STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER INTO A PARKING LOT AND GET OUT OF TRAFFIC. MY CAR HAS HAD EVERY MANUFACTURER SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE SERVICE PERFORMED FOR THE LIFE OF THE CAR.

THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL EXCESSIVELY. IT IS LOSING ABOUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1500 MILES.

WHILE DRIVING TO WORK MY CAR STARTED DOING 50 MPH WITHOUT MY FOOT ON ANY PEDAL. I HAD TO RIDE THE BRAKE TO KEEP IT WITHIN THE SPEED LIMIT OF 20 IN THE SCHOOL ZONE AND THEN 35 ON THE ROAD. WHEN I ARRIVED AT A RED LIGHT THE CAR TRIED TO MOVE FORWARD EVEN WITH THE BRAKE PRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN. I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE STARTED REVVING. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND STILL HAD THE SAME REVVING AND PULLING. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND PUT IT IN PARK AND THE CAR KEPT REVVING. I TURNED IT OFF AND KEPT IT OFF FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON I STILL HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I CAREFULLY DROVE THE CAR BACK HOME (ABOUT A MILE TOTAL TRIP) RIDING THE BRAKE THE WHOLE TIME TO KEEP THE CAR FROM GETTING AWAY FROM ME. NO MAT WAS NEAR THE PEDALS, I TRIED MOVING TO A LOWER GEAR, I MADE SURE ALL CRUISE CONTROLS WERE OFF, NOTHING HELPED. IT WAS THE MOST TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD WHILE DRIVING!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE ENGINE SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (DON MCGILL TOYOTA OF KATY, 21555 KATY FWY, KATY, TX 77450) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 1802121645. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000. *TT *AS

THIS CAR IS BURNING THROUGH OIL IN BETWEEN CHANGES. THE ABS SYSTEM HAS ALSO FAILED. NO MAJOR PROBLEMS, JUST ANNOYING.

I WAS DRIVING FROM DELAWARE TO PHILADELPHIA ON A RAINY DAY AND SUDDENLY THE LIGHT OF THE BREAK, ABS AND STABILITY LIGHT COME UP. ALSO THERE IS A MESSAGE TELLING TO CHECK VSC SYSTEM. I PULLED OVER AND STARTED THE CAR AGAIN AND NOTHING HAPPENED . I'M SCARE TO DRIVE THE CAR ON HIS CONDITION SINCE I'M PREGNANT.

LAW OIL AFTER 1200 MILES

THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON AND THE SPEEDOMETOR KEEPS GOING OUT. SKID CONTROL ECU CODE ABS ACTUATOR WILL NEED REPLACE.WHEN CAR ON ROAD AND IT HAPPEN -NOT SAFE,PUT ME ON DANGEROS POSITION. LATER,I DISCOVERED SIMILAR PROBLEM DRIVERS HAVE AND WAS RECALL ON TOYOTA HYBRID 2007 ,BUT NOT ON REGULAR CAMRY 2007.

IN OCT2017. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE DO TO AN OIL BELL TELLING ME OIL WAS LOW. THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NO OIL IN THERE AT ALL..AND COULD NOT FIND ANY LEAK. THEY TELL ME IT IS THE PISTONS AND OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. I NOW HAVE TO ADD 2 QUARTS OF OIL A WEEK OF MY OWN. I NEVER GOT A LETTER FROM TOYOTA STATING A PROBLEM OR HOW TO FIX IT..I WANT IT FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD HAD BEEN PREMATURELY DETERIORATING. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN A MANUFACTURER RECALL CONCERNING THE DASHBOARD. THE DEALER (TUSCALOOSA TOYOTA, 3325 SKYLAND BLVD E, TUSCALOOSA, AL 35405, (205) 553-3325) STATED THAT THE PART WAS ON A NATIONAL BACKORDER FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. MONTHS LATER, THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE STATUTE HAD EXPIRED TO RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIR SOLUTION FOR THE PART. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED NO SOLUTION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MLEAGE WAS 130,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS, WHENEVER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED OUTDOORS, THE SUNLIGHT CAUSED THE DASHBOARD TO MELT. ADDITIONALLY, THERE WAS A GLOSS THAT REFLECTED FROM THE DASHBOARD ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REFLECTION IN THE WINDSHIELD MADE THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. STOKES BROWN TOYOTA OF HILTON HEAD (100 FORDING ISLAND RD, BLUFFTON, SC 29910, (888) 994-0079) WAS NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT A WARRANTY REPAIR WAS PROVIDED BY THE MANUFACTURER, BUT THE DEADLINE HAD BEEN EXCEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. *TT

TAKATA MY 2007 TOYOTA HYBRID HAS BEEN BEHAVING BADLY, WITH JUST 190K MILES.MY TRACTION BATTERY MONITOR WOULD SHOW 7 BARS FALLING TO 1 BAR INSTANTLY. INSTANTLY, AS I WOULD BE LOOKING AT IT AND IT JUST DROPPED THAT FAST. IT WOULD GET PARKED WITH A FULL CHARGE INDICATED AND THEN THE NEXT MORNING ONE BAR. SOMETIMES IT GOES INTO E MODE AND SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IVE BEEN CLOSE TO CRASH WITH OTHER VEHICLES. THE ECM THROWS A WARNING, "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM". I BORROWED AN ACTRON SCANNER THAT HAD THE CAPABILITY OF BASIC HYBRID CODES AND ONE CODE WAS PRESENT "P0A80". ALSO, CHECK VSC WOULD SHOW ALL THE TIMES. SOMEWHERE I READ THIS IS NORMAL WITH P0A80 AS THE ECM SHUTS DOWN THE VSC TO CONSERVE POWER..

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA'S DASHBOARD COVER IS A STICKY GOOEY MESS.

EXSECIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

THE REAR GLASS HEATED WINDOW LEAKS LIKE A SIVE. IT'S MOLDED UP MY TRUNK AND I HAVE TO LET THE WATER OUT BY DISLODGING THE TRUNK PLUG SO IT DOESN'T ACCUMULATE. NOT COOL, BUT I DO LOVE THE DRIVE! ADD A SCARF AND IT FEELS LIKE PARIS... WE JUST KEEP ADDING SEALANT IN BLACK TO KEEP THE WATER OUT EVERY FALL BEFORE THE RAIN KICKS IN.

ONE OR THE OTHER LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS RANDOMLY GOES OFF WHEN DRIVING. IT'S A RECURRING PROBLEM. DEALER REPLACE BOTH BULB AND BOTH TRANSFORMERS AT A COST OF $1160.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS BURNING OIL EXCESSIVELY, APPROXIMATELY TWO QUARTS PER WEEK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO TUFANKJIAN TOYOTA OF BRAINTREE (210 UNION STREET, BRAINTREE, MA 02184) WHERE A FUEL CONSUMPTION TEST WAS COMPLETED. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTIFICATION REGARDING THE EXTENDED REPAIR DEADLINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 1706022014. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILED, TRIGGERING WARNING LIGHTS AND MAKING IT HARD TO PUSH ON THE PEDAL TO STOP THE CAR WHILE IN MOTION. ABS FUNCTION WON'T ACTIVATE. THE ISSUE STARTED IN MAY 2017 AND WAS TAKEN TO A TOYOTA DEALER IN LUFKIN, TEXAS FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE TECHNICIANS "COULDN'T" DETERMINE THE PROBLEM AND RELEASED THE VEHICLE. THIS SAME STEP HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE ENSUING MONTHS, ONLY TO BE FINALLY DIAGNOSED ON DEC 13, 2017. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THE ACTUATOR PROBLEM IS COVERED BY A 'WARRANTY EXTENSION,' WHICH STRETCHES OUT THE WARRANTY PERIOD BEYOND THE STANDARD THREE YEARS OR 36 MONTHS TO, ULTIMATELY, 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES, WHICHEVER COMES FIRST. I THOUGHT THAT WAS GOOD NEWS, BUT AFTER SPEAKING WITH TOYOTA CORPORATE REP, THE WARRANTY WAS DENIED DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING OUT OF THE COVERAGE PERIOD SINCE JUNE. I EXPLAINED THAT THERE WERE ATTEMPTS TO HAVE THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION, BUT THE REP STATED THAT SINCE THE ACTUAL DETERMINATION HAPPENED OUTSIDE OF THE PERIOD, COVERAGE COULD NOT BE EXTENDED. SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, THEIR TECHS SHOULD HAVE RECOGNIZED THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY AND REPAIRED THE VEHICLE, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. FURTHERMORE, IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND AN ACTUAL RECALL SHOULD BE THE REMEDY INSTEAD OF WORKING AROUND IT WITH A "SERVICE CAMPAIGN." I AM ASKING FOR ASSISTANCE TO HAVE TOYOTA COVER THIS REPAIR DUE THEIR FAILURE TO EDUCATE THEIR SERVICE TECHS OR A POTENTIAL DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO MOVE THE DIAGNOSE OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY COVERAGE PERIOD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHEN THE CONTACT APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE ABS AND VSC WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. A MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE DUE TO THE DTC NOT BEING ILLUMINATED WHEN IT WAS INSPECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER (NASHVILLE TOYOTA NORTH, 2400 GALLATIN PIKE N, MADISON, TN 37115, (615) 868-7990) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED WITH A WARRANTY REPAIR. THE DEALER AND THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT WAS NO LONGER AVAILABLE AND THE VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED BEFORE THE CAMPAIGN ENDED ON AUGUST 31, 2017. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NO DOCUMENTATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER PERTAINING TO THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE THAT THE FAILURE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND THERE WAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM. THE CONTACT REFUSED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND INDICATED THAT THE CONTACT NEEDED TO REPLACE THE PART. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST ALL BRAKE FUNCTIONALITY. THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM AND SLIP INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RIVERHEAD TOYOTA (1655 OLD COUNTRY RD, RIVERHEAD, NY 11901) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED; HOWEVER, TOYOTA COULD NOT COVER THE COST BECAUSE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,970.

I HAVE BEEN ADDING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 700 TO 1,000 MILES, SENSE MAY BOUGHT THE CAR IN FEBRUARY

THE VSC WARNING SYSTEM CAME ON INCLUDING SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS. THE ABS ACTUATOR FAILED. I AM TOLD THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THE REPAIR IS $1500-$2000. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED.

TODAY, DECEMBER 11, 2017, WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET IN TRAFFIC, THE 'CHECK VSC SYSTEM' WARNING CAME ON. ALL DASH LIGHTS INCLUDING 'BRAKES' CAME ON AND VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO STOP. THERE WAS NO POWER ASSISTED BRAKING. BRAKE PEDAL WAS HARD TO ENGAGE AND WHEN VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP, THERE WAS A SINGLE "KNOCK OR BANG" SOUND. THIS WARNING HAD COME ON PREVIOUSLY WITHOUT BRAKING ISSUE UNTIL LAST WEEK WHEN MY WIFE TOLD ME SHE HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. I CLEANED AND SUBSEQUENTLY REPLACED THE GAS CAP AS PER A YOU TUBE DESCRIBED REPAIR OF THE CHECK VSC WARNING. I THEN DROVE THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY SINCE THAT TIME WITHOUT INCIDENT UNTIL TODAY. MY WIFE EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM 12/7/2017.

I AM FILING COMPLAINT ON 2007 CAMRY BECAUSE OF EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. FROM RESEARCH ON ISSUE, I UNDERSTAND THAT SAFETY ISSUES CAN OCCUR DUE TO THE ENGINES SIEZING UP AND THE CAR CAN QUIT RUNNING WHILE I'M DRIVING. NOT SURE ABOUT ENGINE CATCHING FIRE. I HAVE PERSUED DIFFERENT AVENUES WITH TOYOTA TO CORRECT ISSUE SINCE THE PROBLEM STEMS FROM FACTORY ENGINEERING. BUT TO NO AVAIL. THIS WAS ALREADY AN ISSUE AT TIME I PURCHASED VEHICLE WITH 64,190 MILES. HOWEVER, I WAS NOT INFORMED OF ANY TSB NOR RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATIONS OF PROBLEMS. I HAVE HAD CAR SERVICED APPROXIMATELY EVERY 3,000 MILES WITH MOTORCRAFT OIL. IT WAS NOT UNTIL 8-25-17 WHEN I WAS ASKED TO SIGN A DISCLAIMER LETTING ME KNOW OIL WAS OFF DIPSTICK. WHEN I CHECKED PREVIOUS RECORDS I FOUND OUT THE CAMRY HAD BEEN LOW ON OIL ( OFF STICK) EACH TIME SERVICED. (MY 1997 CAMRY I OWNED PRIOR TO THIS 2007 NEVER USED ANY OIL IN BETWEEN CHANGES AND IT HAD 176,000 MILES ON IT WHEN I LET IT GO). THUS, AFTER THE 8-25-17 SERVICE AND DOING RESEARCH I BECAME AWARE OF TOYOTA'S ISSUES AND THUS BEGAN A FRUITLESS BATTLE WITH TOYOTA. IT SEEMS THAT EVEN THOUGH I BEGAN FOLLOWING UP WITH TOYOTA AS SOON AS I BECAME AWARE OF ISSUE 8-25-17 THAT MY DOFU WAS 6-27-07. DUE TO NO FAULT OF MY OWN I JUST MISSED THE DEADLINE. HOWEVER, I BELIEVE WHOLEHEARTEDLY THAT THIS IS THEIR RESPONSIBILITY AND THAT TOYOTA SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT SINCE IT IS AN ENGINEERING PROBLEM.

THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE ENGINE WHERE THE OIL IS LEAKING AND BURNING IN THE ENGINE, I DID NOT RECEIVE THE INITIAL NOTIFICATIONS. WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA OF GASTONIA, THEY ADVISED ME THAT IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER THE RECALL. I FOUND OUT TODAY THAT IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED DUE TO THE SECOND CLAUSE OF 10 YEARS OF FIRST USE. I WAS STILL WELL WITH IN THE TIME FRAME, BUT I WAS NOT TOLD THAT WAS AN OPTION. AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT.

HELLO MY NAME IS [XXX] , MY MOTHER -IN-LAW PASSED AWAY IN NOVEMBER 2017 AFTER A LONG BATTLE WITH OLD AGE AND BAD HEALTH CONDITION,WE PICKED HER CAR UP AND FOUND THAT THE DASH IS A GOOEY STICKY MESS ALMOST MELTED. WE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE OFFER TO REPLACE THE DASH HAS EXPIRED. WE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID SORRY CAN NOT HELP YOU, SO HERE WE ARE WITH A CAR THAT HAS A BAD DASH AND A BAD PAINT PROBLEM. HOPING YOU MAY BE ABLE TO HELP US GET THIS CAR REPAIRED BY TOYOTA.

ON MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID, AS I WAS BACKING UP, THE BRAKES WENT SOFT TO THE FLOOR, AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ENGAGED. IT BRAKED SO HARD, IT FELT LIKE A HIT SOMETHING. A FEW DAYS LATER, THE BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS LIGHTS TURNED ON, AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM DISPLAYED.

THE HYBRID BATTERIE IS NOT RESPONDING WITH THE CARS VELOCITY. IT TURNS OFF IN THE MIďDLE OF MY TRIP. I WORRY FOR MY SAFTEY AND MY FAMILIES BCUS I FEAR TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THAT REASON

DEAR SIR/ MADAM, I HAVE HAD MY CAR TOYOTA CAMRY SINCE 2009(IT IS A 2007 MODEL). IN THE JULY OF 2017 MY CAR STARTED USING MORE OIL THAN USUAL WITH FREQUENT TOP -OFFS. I HAD THE CAR CHECKED AT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP (DUBLIN TOYOTA IN DUBLIN, CALIFORNIA IN JULY 2017) AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR 'S ENGINE COULD BE DEFECTIVE SINCE A TOYOTA BULLETIN FOR DEFECTIVE ENGINE REPAIR HAD BEEN RELEASED FOR THAT MODEL. I HAD TAKEN MY CAR TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS (GLADSTONE TOYOTA IN PORTLAND, OREGON) SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THAT FOR OTHER RECALL NOTICES SUCH AS THE ACCELERATOR GETTING STUCK ETC. BUT NO ONE HAD INFORMED ME OF THIS BULLETIN OR DEFECT. I'VE ALSO RECEIVED RECALL NOTICES FROM TOYOTA FOR OTHER REPAIRS FOR WHICH I PROMPTLY TOOK MY CAR TO THEIR DEALERSHIPS. BUT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY POLICY BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM VIA MAIL OR EMAIL TO THIS DATE. DUBLIN TOYOTA EMPLOYEES SUGGESTED I CALL THE COMPANY TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OUT OF POCKET IF I CHOSE TO GET IT REPAIRED. I CALLED TOYOTA AND SPOKE TO A MANAGER BUT THEY REFUSED TO HELP OR REPAIR THE ENGINE STATING THAT MY CAR WAS A FEW HUNDRED MILES OUT OF WARRANTY PER THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN. NOW, MY CAR CONSUMES OIL VERY QUICKLY AND I MUST AND HAVE TO TOP IT OFF EVERY 12-15 DAYS. IT HAS A MILEAGE OF AROUND 164000 AT PRESENT. REGARDLESS, MY POINT IS: 1) I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF THIS DEFECT BY THE COMPANY(TOYOTA) 2) THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE A MILEAGE LIMIT ON IT. I NEED THIS CAR FOR COMMUTING TO WORK AND I HAVE ALREADY BEEN AFFECTED BY THE WILDFIRES IN SANTA ROSA, CALIFORNIA. I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER OR CAN YOU CONNECT ME TO THE RIGHT ORGANIZATION /AGENCY/ PERSON WHO COULD HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE?

DRIVING NORMAL AND BRAKE LIGHT INDICATOR LIGHTS UP WITH VCS MESSAGE AND POWER BRAKES FAIL. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM ON HIGHWAY OR LOCAL ROADS.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING IN HOT SUNLIGHT. THIS CREATES A VERY REFLECTIVE SURFACE THAT MAKES IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE DURING A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY.

OIL CONSUMPTION

THIS IS A CORRECTION TO MY COMPLAINT #11046531 WHICH CONTAINED AN INCORRECT DATE. HERE IS THE CORRECTED COMPLAINT. THANK YOU. THE DASH BEGAN TO HAVE SMALL CRACKING A FEW YEARS AGO BUT I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT BUT JUST THIS MONTH THE CRACKS ENLARGED AND SPREAD. I LOOKED ON LINE TO SEE IF OTHERS WERE HAVING A PROBLEM AND MANY PEOPLE HAD. I PHONED TOYOTA 800-331-4331 AND DESCRIBED THE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD A RECALL PROGRAM BUT IT EXPIRED MAY 31 2017 AND THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT NOW. THEY SAID THEY SENT ME A LETTER VIA US MAIL BUT I TOLD THEM I NEVER RECEIVED IT NOR WAS I AWARE OF THEIR RECALL PROGRAM. SHE ALSO SAID IF MY DEALERSHIP HAD NOTICED IT THEY COULD HAVE TOLD ME ABOUT IT. I HAD MY CAR IN THE DEALERSHIP 12/2015 AND THEY NEVER MENTIONED ANYTHING ABOUT A RECALL PROGRAM. I GET MY OIL CHANGED SOMEWHERE ELSE CLOSER TO HOME AND DIDN'T HAVE MY CAR IN TO THE DEALER SINCE 12/2015 SO THE TOYOTA SUPPORT PERSON TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY HAVE TO DO FOR ME NOW. I FEEL TOYOTA NEVER NOTIFIED ME ABOUT THIS RECALL PROGRAM AND WOULD LIKE THEM TO FIX OR REPLACE MY DASH BOARD.

EL CARRO TIENE MUCHOS DEFECTOS DE FABRICANTE Y QUISIERA ME AYUDARAN

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. I WAS NEVER MADE AWARE THAT MY TOYOTA HAD THIS PROBLEM UNTIL I REACHED 100,000 WHICH JUST HAPPENED RECENTLY. ACCORDING TO TOYOTA, MY OPTION FOR COVERAGE ENDED 8/2016. I'M BEING PUNISHED FOR HAVING CONSERVATIVE MILES. CRIMINAL AND DECEIPTFUL.

VINYL DASH PAD IS MELTING AND GLAZING FROM SUN EXPOSURE CAUSING REFLECTION ONTO WINDSHIELD CAUSING SEVERE GLARE OBSTRUCTION OF VIEW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE SERVICE BRAKES AND ABS INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HEADQUARTER TOYOTA (5895 NW 167TH ST, HIALEAH, FL 33015), BUT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO FILE A COMPLAINT. OVER TIME, THE SUN VISORS DETACHED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SOUTH DADE TOYOTA (29330 S DIXIE HWY, HOMESTEAD, FL 33033), BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED NO INFORMATION. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE REAR WINDOWS FAILED TO WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO SOUTH DADE TOYOTA, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 121,000.

/C PROBLEMS. THE SERVICE GUY STATED THE PROBLEM WAS NOT WITH WORK TOYOTA DID ON THE CAR. IT HAS BEEN ONE THING AFTER ANOTHER. I LOVE MY TOYOTA. THIS IS LOUSY SERVICE. I KNOW IT HAS BEEN QUITE SOME TIME SINCE ALL OF THIS WAS DONE. I JUST HAVE NOT FELT UP TO VOICING MY COMPLAINT. UNHAPPY WITH TOYOTA SERVICE AT HERRIN GEAR TOYOTA IN JACKSON, MS.

I NEEDED TO SLOW FOR TRAFFIC CONGESTION. I APPLIED THE BRAKES, BUT THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO WORK. SEVERAL LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON INCLUDING THE CHECK HYBRID ENGINE, THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM, AND THE ABS LIGHTS. THE POWER BRAKES WERE OFF AND IT BECAME DIFFICULT TO STOP. THEN THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE STOPPED COMPLETELY REQUIRING ME TO MANEUVER OUT OF HEAVY TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND WAITED 10 MINUTES. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR TO A TOYOTA DEALER WHO SAID SOMETIMES THIS HAPPENS IF GAS CAP IS LOOSE. I WAS TOLD I COULD LEAVE AND THEY WOULD TROUBLESHOOT FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AND A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS. I LEFT AND CONDUCTED MY OWN TROUBLESHOOTING ON GOOGLE AND SOUNDS LIKE A BRAKE ACTUATOR PROBLEM DUE TO SIMILAR ISSUES WITH OTHER OWNERS. TOYOTA HAS A KNOW ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE AND NEEDS TO MAKE AMENDS. PLEASE ADVISE.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING! THIS IS IMPACTING VISIBILITY BY CAUSING EXTREME GLARE SO THAT IT'S DIFFICULT TO SEE OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD ON SUNNY DAYS. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND APPARENTLY OUR DEALERSHIP HAD THE WRONG CITY LISTED FOR OUR ADDRESS WHICH MEANS WE DIDN'T GET THE SERVICE BULLETIN AND NOW WE ARE OUTSIDE OF THE 10 YEAR WINDOW BECAUSE WE PURCHASED IN NOV OF 2006. GIVE ME A BREAK! THIS IS ONE OF 5 TOYOTA'S WE CURRENTLY OWN AND THE REASON WE BUY TOYOTA'S IS BECAUSE THEY LAST. OUR CAMRY JUST HIT 84K MILES AND I EXPECT IT TO LAST MANY YEARS TO COME, BUT THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING! WE CALLED TOYOTA TODAY AND THEY SAID "I'M SORRY BUT YOU ARE OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW WE OFFERED FOR SERVICE" AND "I'M SORRY YOUR DEALERSHIP DIDN'T PROPERLY UPDATE YOUR ADDRESS WHEN YOU GAVE IT TO THEM....BUT YOU ARE OUTSIDE THE WINDOW". THIS IS RIDICULOUS. HOW CAN A MELTING DASHBOARD NOT BE A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. IT'S MAKES VISIBILITY DIFFICULT DUE TO GLARE AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. OURS DIDN'T BECOME A PROBLEM UNTIL THIS SUMMER AND NOW WE FIND OUT THE SERVICE BULLETIN IS CLOSED. I SEE ONLINE PEOPLE ARE WAITING YEARS TO GET REPLACEMENTS....THIS IS JUST TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. THE DASHBOARD IS DEFECTIVE AND TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY HERE. THESE CARS ARE BUILT TO LAST DECADES AND TO HAVE A SERVICE BULLETIN AND NOT AN OFFICIAL RECALL IS JUST WRONG. WE NEVER RECEIVED DOCUMENTATION AND THE PROBLEM BECAME SEVERELY WORSE THIS SUMMER. WE'RE ABOUT A YEAR PAST THE 10 YEARS AS WE BOUGHT OUR CAR IN NOV OF 2016. WHAT CAN WE DO? THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE STICKY GOO THAT IS NOW MY DASHBOARD. YOU JUST CAN'T SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD ON SUNNY DAYS, IT'S A TRAVESTY.

"ABS ACTUATOR EXTENDED WARRANTIES", IN 2014 MY CAR HAD TWO ISSUES WITH THE ABS ACTUATOR AND MY DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO GET THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE FROM THEM. NOW MY CAR IS DISPLAYING "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" AND MANY LIGHTS ON MY DASH. WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN TO MY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT IS THE ABS ACTUATOR AND IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. TOYOTA HAD 2 EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR TROUBLE WITH THE ABS ACTUATOR. BOTH OF THESE WARRANTIES HAVE NOW EXPIRED SO MY ABS ACTUATOR CANNOT BE FIXED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTIES. BECAUSE OF THIS FAULTY PART AT ANYTIME I AM DRIVING I CAN LOSE BRAKING AND STEERING POWER. I HAD FILED A COMPLAINT BEFORE WITH YOUR AGENCY FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE BUT THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO HAVE THE PART CHANGED WHEN THE EXTENDED WARRANTIES WERE IN-FORCE BECAUSE THE PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR AND AS I SAID EARLIER MY DEALERSHIP COULD NOT GET THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE FROM THE FIRST TIME THESE ISSUES OCCURRED.

"ABS ACTUATOR" TOYOTA KNOWS THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID ABS ACTUATOR, MY DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME 10/23/2017 THAT MY ABS ACTUATOR IS GOING OUT. IF THIS HAPPENS IT WILL BE HARD TO STOP AND OR STEER MY CAR WHICH IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WANT TO BE SURE THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN LODGED WITH THE NHTSA.

OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. OIL LIFT GOING ON HALF WAY NOT KNOWING IF THE ENGINE WILL BRAKE AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT

THE ENGINE BURNS THROUGH THE OIL IN ABOUT 2500 MILES. I HAVE TO CARRY AROUND EXTRA OIL TO REFILL IT AT A MOMENTS NOTICE. I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE ENGINE FREEZING UP AS I AM DRIVING.

CAR WAS PARK AND SHUT OFF AND A FEW MINUTES LATER THE CAR WAS SMOKING FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE AND CAUGHT FIRE.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR IS DROOPING AND DOES NOT STAY IN POSITION. IT ALWAYS TILTS DOWNWARD. THIS RESULTS IN OBSTRUCTED VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. TOYOTA WARRANTY POLICY BULLETIN POL12-03 DOES NOT COVER THIS DEFECT FOR MY VIN #; THEREFORE, I DID NOT FIND OUT ABOUT THIS WARRANTY POLICY BULLETIN BEFORE THE EXPIRATION PERIOD OF SEVEN YEARS FROM FIRST USE. CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY INDICATED THAT THIS REPAIR IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY FOR MY CAR SINCE IT IS NOT ON THE LIST OF AFFECTED VIN #S. THIS SUN VISOR SHOULD BE THE SAME PART NUMBER FOUND IN AFFECTED VIN #S. FROM SEVERAL ONLINE TOYOTA CAR OWNER FORUMS, THIS TYPE OF ISSUE IS COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR OWNERS OF CARS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY POLICY BULLETIN BECAUSE THEIR VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED ON THE LIST.

BRAKES GO TO THE FLOOR. 3 YEARS AGO, THERE WAS A EXTENDED WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR A INTERNAL LEAK IN THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (C1391). THE REPAIR WAS COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. NOW, THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AGAIN. HOWEVER THIS TIME, ITS PAST THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND IS A GOING TO A 2K REPAIR. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE A RECALL, NOT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY.

FOR SEVERAL WEEKS PRIOR TO 10/12/2017, I HAD BEEN NOTICING A SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE TO START THE CAR AND SOMETIMES WHEN THE CAR WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE VENICE TOYOTA DEALER ON 10/05/2017, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR WAS FAILING. ON 10/12/2017, ALL OF THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON ON MY DASHBOARD: ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, ETC., AS WELL AS THE WORDS "CHECK VSC SYSTEM." ON 10/13/2017, I HAD THE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY REPLACED BY VENICE TOYOTA, AT A COST OF $1990.00. THREE YEARS PRIOR, IN JANUARY 2014, I HAD ALREADY HAD THE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY REPLACED DUE TO THE VERY SAME FAILURE.THERE WERE MANY REPORTS TO THE NHTSA AT THAT TIME FOR THE SAME MAKE VEHICLES AND YEAR RANGE. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER TOYOTA ISSUED A VEHICLE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR THE ACTUATOR SYSTEM, AND I WAS EVENTUALLY REIMBURSED BY TOYOTA FOR THAT REPAIR. BUT NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN THREE YEARS LATER. CLEARLY THERE IS STILL A WEAKNESS IN THE ACTUATOR SYSTEM, AND I EVEN WONDER IF MY SYSTEM WAS REPLACED BY THE EXACT SAME UNIMPROVED PARTS. TOYOTA IS UNWILLING TO ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS FAILURE OR FOR ITS REPAIR. MY CAR HAS LOW MILEAGE FOR ITS AGE, CURRENTLY AT 95,000. ALSO, I ONLY PUT ON 26,700 ADDITIONAL MILES SINCE THE ACTUATOR SYSTEM FIRST FAILED 3 YEARS AGO.

EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION: MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS CONSUMING 1 QUART OF ENGINE OIL EVERY 1,200 MILES BASED ON A LATENT DESIGN DEFECT IN THE ENGINE PISTONS AND PISTON RINGS. TOYOTA ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN AND SET THE OIL CONSUMPTION LEVELS AT A RIDICULOUS LEVEL (1.2 QUARTS PER 1,200 MILES) AND THEY CONTINUE TO REJECT MY REQUEST TO PAY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY SAY THIS IS NORMAL. FUNNY NONE OF MY OTHER 5 TOYOTA'S HAVE EVER DONE THIS!! I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE AND HAS A SIGNIFICANT MONETARY COST TO FIX THE ISSUE. TOYOTA KNOWS THEY HAVE A PROBLEM AND WOULDN'T PAY TO FIX THE ISSUE.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION - NOT SAFE MY FAMILY IS EXTREMELY LOYAL TO THE TOYOTA BRAND AND WE HAVE NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR ISSUES WITH AN OF OUR VEHICLES IN THE PAST. I NOTICED THAT MY 2007 CAMRY SE 2.4L V4 HAD BEEN BURNING OIL EXTREMELY FAST A LITTLE OVER A YEAR AGO.AT FIRST, A MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO CHANGE MY VALVE COVER GASKET AS THAT WAS WHAT HE PRESUMED TO BE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE ISSUE. AFTER I PAID TO GET THAT REPLACED I NOTICED THAT MY ENGINE WAS STILL BURNING OIL AT AN EXTREMELY FAST RATE. I PROCEEDED TO CHANGE MY PCV VALVE AND SWITCH TO A SYNTHETIC-BLEND. NOTHING AT ALL HAS HELPED WITH THE OIL CONSUMPTION. IT IS DRAINING MY POCKETS AND TIME. MULTIPLE MECHANICS HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED BECAUSE THIS ISSUE IS EXTREMELY DRAINING AND UNSAFE.MY CAR BURNS OVER 1 QUART EVERY THOUSAND MILES. I BELIEVE THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH MY ENGINE, I'VE READ SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND NEED TO GET THIS FIXED. I HOPE THAT TOYOTA CAN HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE.

THE EXCELERATOR PEDEL HAS A SLIGHT PLAY IN IT WHEN YOU FIRST STEP DOWN ON THE PEDEL.

MY TOYOTA CAMRY CE HAS A PROBLEM WITH DASH BOARD. ALL GAUGES GOES UP AND DOWN. I HAVE VIDEO. I TOOK IT TO MECHANIC AND BASE ON THE SCANNER EVERYTHING CHECKS OUT FINE. NO CODE INDICATOR. THERE ARE MANY FORUMS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM PEOPLE ARE ENCOUNTERING. THIS PROBLEM MUST BE A RECALL. IT DOES IT WHILE I'M DRIVING.

ENGINE BURNS OIL, THERE IS A RECALL ABOUT IT. PANAMA CITY TOYOTA DOESN'T WANT TO APPLY THE RECALL.

VEHICLE CONSUMING TOO MUCH OIL/BURNING OIL. IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. OIL HAS TO BE MONITORED CLOSED SO AT TO NOT BLOW MY ENGINE. CANNOT FIND A RECALL AND NOTIFICATION WAS SENT TO ME. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ON LINE SAW SEVERAL COMPLAINTS BUT NOT RECALL.

ABS AND WARNING SIGNS WERE ON DASH. 1ST TIME EVER HAPPENED. ON A BUSY INTERSECTION CAR WAS BARELY STOPPING. ONCE REALIZED CAR WAS NOT STOPPING GOT OFF BUSY INTERSECTION AND GOT TO SAFE AREA. BRAKES DID NOT WORK AT ALL.

THE FRONT DASHBOARD OF MY CAR HAS MELTED. ON A SUNNY DAY THERE IS TOO MUCH OF A GLARE THAT I CANNOT SEE CLEARLY TO WHAT IS AHEAD. I CANNOT PLACE ANYTHING ON THE DASHBOARD BECAUSE IT STICKS ON THERE AND IT HAS BEGAN TO CHIP OFF WHEN I ACCIDENTALLY BUMP MY NAIL ON IT. IT IS HORRIBLE AND DANGEROUS WITH THAT GLARE. IF SOMEONE WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD I MAY NOT SEE THEM ON TIME TO LET THEM PASS BY BECAUSE OF THE GLARE AND IT IS GETTING WORSE AS IT CONTINUES TO MELT EVEN MORE.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LR ABS SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING, I READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS (OVER 197 COMPLAINTS WITH THIS PROBLEM ON 2007 CAMRY LE'S) TO YOUR SITE WITH SAME PROBLEM: WARNING LIGHTS , SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE AT "0", ETC. COST TO REPLACE ABS SYSTEM OVER $2,500. SOMEONE SAID THE ABS WAS ONLY TO PREVENT SKIDS AND EVEN THOUGH SPEEDOMETER IS NOT SHOWING SPEED, THAT NO OTHER PROBLEM SUCH AS SUDDEN STOP, OR BRAKE FAILURE, ETC WOULD HAPPEN, COMPLAINTS ON YOUR SITE SHOW THAT OTHER PROBLEMS, CAN RESULT, WHAT CAN WE DO? MY CAR MILEAGE IS 79,899. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM STARTED APPROX. AUGUST 2017 - -

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY OIL CONSUMPTION RECALL WAS NEVER FIXED PROPERLY TRIED TO TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIP SEVER TIMES BUT WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR SHOWED AS NOT HAVING THAT ISSUE POWER WINDOWS RECALL BUTTON GETS STUCK. OIL IS CONSTANTLY RUNNING LOW OR EMPTY AND SENSOR IS NOT COMING ON AS WELL AS NO OIL LEAKING OUT OF VEHICLE EVEN AFTER OIL CHANGE HAS TAKEN PLACE. HAVE TO MANUALLY CHECK AND ADD OIL TO VEHICLE WHICH IS DANGEROUS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT, OVER TIME, THE DASHBOARD BEGAN TO MELT, AND PRODUCED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FOWLER TOYOTA OF TULSA (6868 E BROKEN ARROW EXPRESSWAY FRONTAGE RD, TULSA, OK 74145) WHERE THE DEALER STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY.

THE BOARD OF ALANTE MELTS WITH THE HEAT AND DOES NOT LET ME SEE WHY HE WAS MUCH BILLO AND I HAD AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THAT PROBLEM NESECITO HELP

CAR CONSUMES A LOT OF OIL WHERE THE ENGINE MAY RUN OUT OF OIL AND SEIZE UP. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR WITHOUT CONSTANTLY CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL. THE CAR CAN USE AROUND A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. I'VE BEEN LOW 2.5 QUARTS OUT OF 4.5 QT CAPACITY WHICH I BELEIVE DAMAGE THE ENGINE.

I HAD 1000 MILES LEFT TIL MY NEXT OIL CHANGE AND ON THE DAY THE PROBLEM HAPPENED ONE OF THE PISTONS BLEW UP BECAUSE THERE WAS NO OIL LEFT IN THE CAR ALSO THE OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON INDICATING I NEEDED OIL. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE I HAVE SERVICE RECORDS OF ALL OIL CHANGES ON TIME. TOYOTA NEVER SENT OUT A MAIL REGAURDING THIS PROBLEM

LETTER FROM SENATOR WARREN ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT IN REGARDS TO TOYOTA UNWILLING TO FIX CAR. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. THE MANUFACTURE WAS NOTIFIED AND DENIED ASSISTANCE DUE TO THE VEHICLE NOT BEING LOCATED IN USA. THE CONSUMER IS IN THE UNITED STATES MILITARY STATIONED IN GERMANY. THEREFORE, THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD MAKE AN EXCEPTION FOR MILITARY PERSONNEL. UPDATED 09/20/2017*JS *JS

MY CAR DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND WHEN I DRIVE IT'S REFLECTED ON THE WINDSHIELD IT IS DESTRUCTIVE AND HARD TO DRIVE.

EXCESSIVE OIL COMSUMPTION TO THE POINT OF ENGINE FAILURE WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. WE HAVE THE OIL CHANGED EVERY 5000 MILES AND ARE ADDING AT LEAST 4 TO 5 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN CHANGES.

HYBRID BATTERY PACK GOES BAD AFTER 150000 MILES AND NEED TO BE REPLACE, CAR SHUTS OF BY IT SELF IN THE HIGHWAY. WHEN CARA IS RUNNING IS AGITA OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

WHEN I START THE CAR BRAKE LIGHT IS ON AND AFTER FEW MINUTES MESSAGE COMES AS CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND ITS NOT GOING AWAY.

THE DRIVER SIDE VISER DOES NOT STAY IN ITS SECURE STORING LOCATION. THE VISOR WILL CONTINUALLY FALL DOWN OBSTRUCTING THE DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD. THE ONLY WAY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE IS TO HAVE IT OPENED AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD AT ALL TIME.

MY TOYOTA CAMRY ENGINE IS BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL I DONT WANT THIS CAR TO BLOW UP ON ME WHILE DRIVING

I HAVE TAKEN FAIRLY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR THROUGHOUT THE TIME I HAVE HAD IT WHICH IS ALMOST 10 YEARS BUT THE MILEAGE IS ONLY AT 130,000. I WAS DRIVING ONE DAY AND THE CAR COMPLETELY TURNED OFF BUT I HAD NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN BEFORE, EVEN NEVER HAD ANY SIGNIFICANT PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR SO THIS CAME AS A SURPRISE. I HAD JUST HAD THE OIL CHANGED ABOUT 2 WEEKS PRIOR AND HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE DONE AT THAT TIME AS WELL. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC AND THEY BELIEVED THEY KNEW WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS SINCE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS APPEARING. THEY FIXED SAID PROBLEM BUT THEY REALIZED THE CAR WAS STILL DISPLAYING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ALSO REVVING. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE THE CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER SO THEY COULD READ WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND WHY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON AND THE CAR WAS NOT RUNNING PROPERLY. THEY ENDED UP DIAGNOSING THAT ONE OF THE CYLINDERS WAS MISFIRING AND THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED A COMPLETE OVERHALL/REPLACEMENT. THE ESTIMATE GIVEN WAS $6000 FOR THE ENGINE (THIS SITE DID NOT ACCEPT THIS AMOUNT) AND ANOTHER AMOUNT WHICH I CAN'T RECALL FOR THE LABOR. I HAVE NOT YET DECIDED WHAT I WILL DO BUT WANTED TO LOOK UP ANY ENGINE RECALLS OR ISSUES OTHERS WERE HAVING WITH THEIR CAMRYS AND CAME UPON THIS SITE.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW. FOR THE PAST 4 YEARS I'VE EXPERIENCED MORE THAT AVERAGE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP LAST YEAR REGARDING THIS. THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR QUALIFIED FOR THE RECALL ON EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. WHEN THE FIRST TEST RESULTS CAME OUT I WAS INFORMED THAT MY CAR PASSED THE TEST AND THAT IT DIDN'T QUALIFY FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. WHEN THE FOLLOWING OIL CHANGE WAS DUE I TOOK MY CAR TO ANOTHER TOYOTA DEALERSHIP JUST TO GET THE SECOND OPINION ON THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I INFORMED THEM THAT THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND TIME I WAS REQUESTING THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST FOR MY VEHICLE. SURPRISINGLY THE RESULTS CAME OUT THE SAME WAY, THAT MY CAR PASSED THE TEST. AS OF RECENT, THE SITUATION HAS BECOME WORSE. I'M SUPPOSED TO TURN IN MY CAR AT THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 5,000 MILES PER TOYOTA STANDARDS, BUT AFTER ABOUT 700 TO 800 MILES MY ENGINE BEGINS GIVING NOISES WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR, WHICH OVER TIME I CAME TO LEARN THAT THIS KIND OF NOISE IS AN INDICATION THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS VERY LOW AND I NEED TO ADD MORE OIL. MY CAR IS NOT LEAKING ANY OIL, IT'S CONSUMING MORE OIL THAN HOW IT'S SUPPOSED TO. I AM CONSIDERING DOING THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST TO ANOTHER REPUTABLE DEALERSHIP WITH NO CONNECTIONS WITH TOYOTA TO SEE HOW THE RESULTS ARE GOING TO BE. IN THE MEANTIME I WOULD LIKE TO REQUEST A HELP FROM THE NHTSA BECAUSE I BELIEVE TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR ACTIONS. THANK YOU

RECENTLY PURCHASED (AUG 2017) A CAMRY AND NOTICED THE DASH WAS STICKY AND PLANNED TO CLEAN IT WITH AN ADHESIVE REMOVER; HOWEVER, IT ISN'T JUST STICKY IT HAS ACTUALLY MELTED AND BECOME SHINY CAUSING A BLINDING GLARE ON SUNNY DAYS AND WHEN MEETING ONCOMING TRAFFIC AT NIGHT. CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ENDED MAY 2017 (TOLD ME IT WAS ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO HELP ME NOW). SOMETHING THAT WAS DEEMED UNSAFE AND NEEDED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY RECALL ISSUED IS NO LONGER UNSAFE TWO MONTHS LATER?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE EXITING THE VEHICLE WITH THE GEAR IN PARK, THE VEHICLE MOVED AND DROVE OVER THE OCCUPANT'S LEGS. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED TWO BROKEN ANKLES, CUTS, AND BRUISES, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TOYOTA ISSUED TSB FOR "EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION". I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THEIR 'TEST' (I.E., MORE THAN 1 QT OF OIL IN 1,200 MILES) AND JUST BARELY "PASSED". BUT THE PROBLEM GROWS WORSE OVER TIME AND NOW BURNS OIL EXTREMELY QUICKLY. BUT TOYOTA TOLD ME TODAY THAT SINCE THE CARE IS NOW MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD, THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO FOR ME. WHY WON'T TOYOTA JUST DO A "RECALL" TO FIX THIS OBVIOUS PROBLEM?

MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID HAD A HIGH LEVEL OF OIL CONSUMPTION FROM THE TIME I BOUGHT IT.... WHEN I WOULD TAKE IT TO GET OIL CHANGES THERE WOULD BE NO ADVISING OF A LEAK, SO WHILE I THOUGHT IT TO BE VERY ODD AND INCONVENIENT I CONTINUED TO TOP OFF MY VEHICLE , AS FREQUENTLY AS MY CHECK ENGINE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. ON JULY 26,2017. MY "CAR MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" LIGHT CAME ON I TOLD MYSELF I'D GO TO THE MECHANIC ON THAT WEEKEND WHICH WAS ONLY A COUPLE DAYS AWAY. ONLY JULY 27,2017 ON MY WAY TO WORK I STARTED TO HEAR A VERY LOUD KNOCKING NOISE. I HAD NO CLUE WHAT THE NOISE WAS BUT I PULLED INTO AN AUTO ZONE AND POPPED THE HOOD. IT WAS THE ENGINE THAT WAS KNOCKING VERY LOUDLY. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND I CHECKED THE OIL. THE DIPSTICK WAS BONE DRY. WHERE DID 5 QUARTS OF OIL GO IN LESS THEN 3,000 MILES OF DRIVING? WHY WAS THERE NO ENGINE OIL LOW WARNING ON MY CAR? I TOOK THE CAR TO A SHOP WHERE MY ENGINE WAS PRONOUNCED DEAD, WHICH TOYOTA CHARGED ME $115.00 TO DIAGNOSE. THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE THESE MODELS WERE NOTORIOUS FOR DRINKING UP OIL AND I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT IT. THE TOYOTA REP SAID THERE WAS LETTERS SENT OUT BEFORE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER. I HAD NO IDEA THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE! THERE WERE NO LETTERS MAILED TO ME AND I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE RIGHT AROUND THE EXACT SAME TIME THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE TOYOTA MECHANIC SAID I HAVE TO FIND A WAY TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR AND A REBUILD ENGINE IS $5,000 OR I CAN BUY A BRAND NEW ENGINE FOR 12,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THE ONLY REASON I DECIDED TO PURCHASE A TOYOTA WAS BECAUSE OF HOW THEY'RE WELL KNOWN FOR LASTING FOREVER. HOW WAS A SUPPOSED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS SITUATION? AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND I HOPE THEY PLAN TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION. IF THE ENGINE HAD GIVEN OUT WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, I COULD HAVE LOST MY LIFE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING 65 MPH, HE WAS CUT OFF BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT'S SON HAD TO ABRUPTLY DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT WAS TOO LATE. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT'S SON CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE DRIVER WAS INJURED, BUT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 139,000.

TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID 2007 ENGINE OIL BURNING TOO FAST, I DRIVE ONLY 1500 MILES AFTER CHANGED MY ENGINE OIL. IN THE LAST TIME IT WAS DECREASED 1100 MILES.

AM A PERSON WHO ALWAYS GET MY OIL CHANGE ON TIME SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR. HOWEVER, OVER THE LAST YEAR, I HAVE NOTICE THE FOLLOWING ISSUES: MY 'OIL PRESSURE' LIGHT COME ON HALFWAY THROUGH YOUR MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE. MY ENGINE BURN THROUGH AS MUCH AS 1 QUART OF OIL IN 1,200 MILES I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ON AUGUST 10, 2017 LOCATED ON 1000 BLAIRS BRIDGE RD, LITHIA SPRINGS, GA 30122. THEY CHECKED MY VEHICLE AND TOLD ME THE FOLLOWING: I WAS TOLD THAT MY ENGINE BURNING THROUGH OIL IS 'NORMAL' AND 'NOTHING TO BE ALARMED OF' THEY ACKNOWLEDGE DAMAGED, OIL-DEPRIVED ENGINE ONLY TO DENY WARRANTY COVERAGE; THEY QUOTED ME OVER 3,000 TO GET FIXED TWO WEEKS LATER, I CHECKED MY OIL AND I WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL. OVER TIME, THIS ISSUE IS GETTING WORST. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICE WITH NO RESOLUTION; I CONTINUE TO LEAVE MESSAGES. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE MY CAR FIXED SINCE THIS ISSUE IS COMMON IN 2007 SOLORA'S.

MY HUSBAND WAS IN A SEVERE ACCIDENT IN MY CAR ON MARCH 15,2017. TO WHICH THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. WHICH CAUSED HIM TO GET CRUSHED IN THE LOWER HALF OF HIS BODY. HE IS FOREVER DISABLED AT THE AGE OF 40. THERE WAS NOTHING LEFT OF THE CAR. I FEEL IF THEY WOULD OF DEPLOYED HE WOULDN'T OF BEEN THIS BAD OFF. THE OTHER DRIVER IN A FULL SIZE DODGE PICKUP PULLED OUT , WHILE MY HUSBAND WAS IN FULL SPEED OF 40MILES AN HOUR. TO WHICH HE HIT THE TRUCK IN THE GAS TANK THAT CAUSED EXPLOSION AS WELL. WE SETTLED WITH THE OTHER DRIVER. BUT NOW HE NEEDS MEDICAL AND COMPENSATION FOR PAIN AND SUFFERING, DWELLING. HE CAN NEVER WORK AGAIN. ITS HARD AND TIME CONSUMING FOR DISABILITY. WE NEED HELP.

SUN VISOR AT DRIVER SIDE FAILED TO STAY CLOSE, IT JUST FALLS DOWN AND COMES IN BETWEEN CLEAR VISIBILITY DURING EVENING, CLOUDY OR NIGHT DRIVING. TRIED TO CONTACT TOYOTA DEALER, THEY REFUSED ABOUT THIS DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD MELTED AND HAD A GLOSSY FINISH. THE GLARE FROM THE SUN REFLECTED OFF THE DASHBOARD AND RESULTED IN POOR VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT RECEIVED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM THE MANUFACTURER IN REFERENCE TO THE STRUCTURE OF THE DASHBOARD; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE DID NOT OCCUR UNTIL SIX WEEKS AFTER THE DEADLINE ENDED. THE MANUFACTURER DECLINED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (KC SUMMERS AUTO GROUP, 117 S 19TH ST, MATTOON, IL, 61938). THE DEALER AGREED WITH THE MANUFACTURER, BUT STATED THAT THEY WOULD ASSIST WITH WHATEVER THE MANUFACTURER STATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 148,000.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION OVER 1QT AT EVERY 1200 MILES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD FALL DOWN AND FAILED TO REMAIN IN THE UP POSITION. THE FAILURE CREATED A VISIBILITY HAZARD FOR THE DRIVER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER (WEST BERRY TOYOTA IN WEST BERRY, NEW YORK) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 81,000.

DASH BOARD IS RATHER STICKY ESPECIALLY DURING HOT DAYS

AT ALL TIMES, WHEN THE CAR IS ON, THE ABS ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY IS RUNNING ALMOST CONSTANTLY AND THERE IS AN AUDIBLE LEAK FROM THE UNIT. THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE LEAK IN THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING UNIT TODAY AND SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER TOYOTA'S SERVICE EXTENSION PROGRAM. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS IS NOT SAFETY RELATED, YET WHAT BROUGHT ME INTO THE DEALERSHIP WAS A SAFETY RECALL ON THE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH ASSEMBLY. IMMINENT LOSS OF BRAKING SEEMS MUCH MORE DANGEROUS THAN POWER WINDOWS, BUT I GUESS TOYOTA DOESN'T THINK SO.

FAULTY DASH MELTING AND STICKY CAUSING A HIGH SHINE ON DASH THAT IMPAIRS VISION DAY AND NIGHT BY CAUSING GLARE ON WINDSHIELD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHEN THE CONTACT PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, AN OIL CHANGE WAS PERFORMED DUE TO THE LACK OF OIL IN THE RESERVOIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER (TOYOTA CERTIFIED AT CAPITAL PLAZA, 6100 ANNAOPLIS ROAD, LANDOVER HILLS, MD, 20784) WHERE THE OIL CAP WAS TAPED DOWN. THE CONTACT WAS INSTRUCTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR 2,000-3,000 MILES BEFORE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST COULD BE PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE FAILED THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN, PISTON, AND RINGS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE SAME DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE ON BACKORDER; HOWEVER, THE DEALER WAS ABLE TO REPAIR THE TIMING CHAIN. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE ENGINE BEGAN TO MAKE A KNOCKING NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING BELT FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIMING CHAIN FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 165,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE FLOOR MAT BECAME STUCK UNDER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A POLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE CONTACT CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (PAULY TOYOTA LOCATED AT 1035 S 11 ROUTE 31 CRYSTAL LAKE, IL 60014), BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED PER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 07E082000 SINCE IT WAS PREVIOUSLY REPAIRED ON MARCH 22, 2010. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,422.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WITH THE ENGINE ON. IN 2014 TOYOTA ISSUED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTIFICATION - ZE1 FOR THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY ISSUE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE PROBLEM WAS CORRECTED. A MONTH AGO (2 YEARS LATER) THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS OCCURRED (SAME 5 WARNING LIGHTS). I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID SINCE MY VEHICLE WAS ALREADY CORRECTED, THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ZE1 NO LONGER APPLIED. SEEMS TO BE A RECURRENT PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA SHOULD WARRANTY.

TOYOTA SEINNA 2007 BACK DOOR STRUTS FAILED, HITTING ME ON THE HEAD WHEN I WAS PARKED LOADING GROCIES. VAN WAS NOT RUNNING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VSC, ABS, HAZARDS, AND SWERVING VEHICLE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, AN AMBER COLORED SYMBOL WITH AN EXPLANATION POINT IN THE CENTER ILLUMINATED, BUT THE CONTACT WAS NOT SURE WHAT THE WARNING INDICATOR IMPLIED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED A TOTAL OF FOUR TIMES. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 1707270334. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE CARFAX INFORMATION AND FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE'S YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR SIMILAR BRAKE ISSUES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000.

RECENTLY PURCHASED CAR WIT 85,000 MILES NOT AT 92,000 WE REALIZE IT IS USING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 300 TO 500 MILES. THIS IS UNREALISTIC AND HAVE HEARD OF NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS AND ACTIONS THAT I WAS UNAWARE OF BY TOYOTA

OIL CONSUMPTION .. IN DRIVING THE CAR IN THE CITY AND I CHECKED THE OIL EVERY MORNING THERE IS OIL CONSUMPTION AND I NEED HELP IN THIS ISSUE

STICKY MELTING DASHBOARD

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR RETAINING MECHANISM BREAKS AND THE VISOR DROPS DOWN AND BLOCKS THE DRIVERS VISION. THE DRIVER MUST MANUALLY HOLD THE VISOR UP WITH ONE HAND TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE THE CONTACT'S GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, A HIGH PITCHED ALARM SOUNDED. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THE BRAKE PEDAL TRAVELED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP AND CONTINUED TO COAST FORWARD. THE CONTACT HAD TO CONTINUOUSLY PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE TOYOTA OF LACROSSE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE RESERVOIR AND ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 201,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, AN ALARM SOUNDED AND THE BRAKES SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ALARM WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST, AND THEN BECAME A CONTINUOUS SOUND WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. TOYOTA OF LACROSSE, WISCONSIN (LOCATED AT 800 3RD ST SOUTH LACROSSE, WI 54601 (608) 793-7000) DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE RESERVOIR, WHICH WAS UNDER RECALL, AND THE BRAKE ACTUATOR, IN WHICH THERE WAS NO RECALL, WERE FAULTY.

I HAVE BEEN CHANGE OIL BY TOYOTA DEALER, REGULARLY ON AND OFF, SINCE BLAND NEW. BUT ONCE A WHILE, I TOOK DIFFERENT SHOP TO CHANGE PARTS. ABOUT 2012 I LEARN THAT I HAVE PROBLEM WITH STRUT, WHEN I WAS REPLACING TIRES. SO I WENT BACK AND I COMPLAIN ABOUT THE STRUT TO KEARNY MESA TOYOTA, SAN DIEGO, BUT THEY TOLD ME IT IS STILL OKAY TO DRIVE AS IT IS, BUT ABOUT 2014, I STARTING HAVING PROBLEM WITH MY TIRES, SO I WENT TO TOYOTA POWAY, THEY TOLD ME I NEED TO REPLACE STURT ALONG WITH TIRES, SO I REQUEST TO REPLACE STRUT AND TIRES AND THEY CALLED ME THE BEARING NEED TO BE REPLACE AS WELL. I WAS REALLY MAD AND I CONTACT THE TOYOTA, AND KEARNY MESA TOYOTA CONTACT ME THEY WILL REPLACE BEARING FOR ME. NOW AFTER 2 AND HALF YEARS WITH A LITTLE OVER 20K MILE ON THE VEHICLE IT STARTED TO HAVING STRUT LEAK PROBLEM AGAIN. I CONTACT THE TOYOTA POWAY, THEY TOLD ME I NEED TO REPLACE STRUT NEED TO REPLACE AGAIN. I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA AND THEY DON'T WANT TO HELP THIS TIME.

BOUGHT CAR USED A YEAR AGO. HAD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DONE AT 74,000 MILES WITHIN TIME FRAME ALLOWED. WAS TOLD ENGINE WAS GOOD. NOW, AT 80,000 MILES OIL IS AT BOTTOM TIP OF OIL DIP STICK. I CALLED DEALER WHERE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WAS DONE. WAS TOLD "WE ONLY ADDED A QUART..." AT TEST'S CONCLUSION. I WAS NOT TOLD AT THE TIME OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST'S CONCLUSION THAT A "QUART WAS ADDED." SINCE I WAS NOT TOLD A QUART WAS ADDED, I WASN'T AWARE I HAD TO WATCH MY OIL. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, OIL LIGHT FLASHED BRIEFLY BUT I COULDN'T MAKE-OUT WHAT IT WAS. FOLLOWING DAY, UPON STARTING VEHICLE, IT FLASHED AGAIN. ANOTHER DAY AND IT STAYS ON VERY BRIEFLY BUT LONG ENOUGH FOR ME TO FIGURE THAT IT WAS THE OIL LIGHT. I LET CAR SIT ON FLAT SURFACE FOR AN HOUR, CHECKED OIL AND IT JUST TOUCHED TIP OF DIPSTICK. I ADDED TWO QUARTS OF OIL.

DRIVER & PASSENGER SUN VISORS HAVE EITHER FALLEN OFF COMPLETELY AND/OR NO LONGER ABLE TO STAY UP AND OUT OF WAY. THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. WE'VE REPLACED THESE VISORS 2 TO 3 TIMES, AT LEAST ONCE WITH DEALER. NEVER NOTIFIED OF ANY RECALL THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. MOST RECENT INCIDENT OCCURRED THE MORNING OF 7/18/17, WHEN DRIVER SIDE VISOR SUDDENLY BECAME LOOSE FROM ITS UPWARD POSITION AND RELEASED TO AN UNSTABLE DOWNWARD POSITION. THIS SUDDEN OBSTRUCTION NEARLY RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT AS THE VISOR BLOCKED THE DRIVER'S VIEW WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. DRIVER WAS ABLE TO AVOID A COLLISION, BUT WAS REQUIRED TO HOLD THE VISOR OUT OF THE WAY BEFORE BEING ABLE TO PULL OVER AND TRY TO MANEUVER VISOR UPWARDS TO LOCK IN PLACE TO NO SUCCESS. DRIVER AT THAT POINT HAD TO REMOVE VISOR FOR SAFETY REASONS. PASSENGER VISOR ALREADY FELL OFF EARLIER ON ITS OWN AND NOW THE DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BEEN REMOVED; VEHICLE NO LONGER HAS SUN VISORS. VEHICLE OPERATOR LIVES IN CENTRAL ARIZONA WITH CONSISTENTLY "VERY HIGH" UV INDEX. THE LOSS OF VISORS MAKES THIS CAR DIFFICULT TO DRIVE DURING DAYTIME, EVEN WITH INDEPENDENT EYE PROTECTION (IE: SUNGLASSES) AS WELL AS WITH HE VISORS' UNRELIABILITY TO REMAIN ATTACHED TO THE CAR'S INTERIOR.

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WONT STAY FULLY IN THE UP POSITION.

DASHBOARD MELTING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO WORK. THE ABS, TRIANGLE WITH EXCLAMATION POINT, AND BRAKE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (TOYOTA PASADENA LOCATED AT 3600 E FOOTHILL BLVD, PASADENA, CA 91107; (626) 795-9787) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 800-331-4331 AND STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED TO PAY $750 FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 1707111743. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 86,870.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT HAS INTERMITTENT INSTRUMENT CLUSTER PROBLEMS. ODOMETER DOES NOT INCREMENT MILES TRAVELED. THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER WILL CEASE TO INDICATE PROPER READINGS AND DROP TO ZERO. THE TACHOMETER WILL THEN BOUNCE BETWEEN ZERO AND WHAT I CAN ONLY ASSUME IS A CLOSE APPROXIMATION OF THE ACTUAL ENGINE RPM. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AND STAY ON FOR THE DURATION OF THE "EPISODE".

UNFORTUNATELY ON 4OF JULY I HAPPEN TO BE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AS IM DRIVING ENTERING THE INTERSECTION TO ENTER FREEWAY I START SMELLING STRONG GAS FUMES HALF WAY INTO THE FREEWAY I START SEEING SMOKE RISE UP SO I PULLED OVER GRABBED WHATEVER I COULD AS I BACK AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE THE ENTIRE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE CATCHES ON FIRE I CALL 911 AND UNFORTUNATELY BECAUSE INSURANCE COMPANY WAS OFF THEY TOWED MY VEHICLE THAT IS NOW A TOTAL LOSS I'VE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS I PURCHASED THROUGH A DEALERSHIP I PUT ALMOST 4000 THE FIRST DOWN PAYMENT AND UNFORTUNATELY BECAUSE I DIDNT HAVE FULL COVERAGE EVERYONE I HAVE CONTACT IS NO HELP I ALSO HAD TO RUSH TO THE HOSPITAL THE DAY AFTER I JUST THANK THE LORD I DIDNT HAVE MY CHILDREN WITH ME I HOPE THERE IS SOMETHING THAT YOU GUYS CAN DO FOR ME AND MY FAMILY

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND THE CAR BURNS OIL FAST

BASICALLY THE ABS ACTUATOR IT'S FAILING LIKE IN THE HYBRID MODEL BUT ARE NOT COVERED BY THE TOYOTA EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH IS COMPLETELY UNFAIR AS THE PART FAILING IT'S THE SAME BASIC ABS PART BUT ON DIFFERENT NON-ELECTRIC VARIANT

CAMRY HYBRID BRAKES PULSATING - THIS IS A HAZARDOUS ISSUE WHICH SEEMS TO BE IGNORED BY TOYOTA. JUST GOOGLE, "CHECK VSC SYSTEM TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID" AND YOU WILL SEE THAT 100S OF RESULTS SHOW UP INVOLVING THREADS THAT ARE AT TIMES 100 POSTS LONG AND MENTIONING SPECIFICS LIKE "INTERMITTENT LOSS OF ASSISTED BRAKING" AND "NHTSA INVESTIGATING 30,000 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS FOR BRAKE ASSIST PROBLEMS" - BRAKE ASSIST PROBLEMS ARE NOT TO BE IGNORED. TOYOTA IS ACTING SOCIALLY IRRESPONSIBLY, WITHOUT QUESTION, TO NOT HAVE ISSUED A RECALL ON THIS PART. SINCE I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE 5 YEARS AGO (USED WITH 45K ON IT) THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A STRANGE SOUND WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, ESPECIALLY WHEN AGGRESSIVELY - IF NEEDED. I HAVE A NEWBORN ON THE WAY AND WILL NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID UNTIL I CAN AFFORD THIS COSTLY REPAIR (AT AVERAGE OF $2500-$3000 TO HAVE DEALER INSTALL, FROM WHAT OTHERS SAY). PLEASE HELP. WE ALSO OWN A 2017 TOYOTA RAV4 HYBRID AND HAVE SO FAR HAD NO ISSUES WITH THAT.

DASH BOARD IS REALLY STICKY

THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS HAVE A NEAR 0% EFFECTIVENESS. I LEAVE THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH IN THE "ALWAYS ON" POSITION, BUT AT NIGHT I OFTEN HAVE TO SWITCH THE HEADLIGHTS OFF AND THEN BACK ON TO VERIFY THEY ARE ON. WHEN THEY ARE ON AT NIGHT, THE HEADLIGHTS ARE AT NEAR 0% EFFECTIVENESS.

AS I WAS TRAVELING ON I75 NORTH OF ATLANTA, I NEEDED TO SLOW FOR TRAFFIC CONGESTION. I APPLIED THE BRAKES, BUT THEY DIDN'T SEEM TO WORK. SEVERAL LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON INCLUDING THE CHECK HYBRID ENGINE, THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM, AND THE ABS LIGHTS. THE POWER BRAKES WERE OFF AND IT BECAME DIFFICULT TO STOP. THEN THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE STOPPED COMPLETELY REQUIRING ME TO MANEUVER OUT OF HEAVY TRAFFIC TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I TURNED ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS, BUT WAS ALMOST HIT BY SEVERAL VEHICLES AS I GOT TO THE SHOULDER.

MY CAR LOSES OIL AT THE RATE OF A QUART AND A HALF EVERY 500 MILES OR SO. IT HAS BEEN REPAIRED FOR AN OBVIOUS LEAK AT THE TOP OF THE ENGINE, BUT CONTINUES TO LOSE OIL AT THIS RATE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THREE MECHANICS NOW THAT THIS IS COMMON IN CAMRYS. IF IT IS SO COMMON, IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY TOYOTA.

THE DASHBOARD IS STARTING TO MELT. WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE GETS WARM, 80 DEGREES PLUS, THE DASHBOARD IS SO STICKY YOU CAN NOT PUT YOUR HANDS ON IT.

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND I MISSED THE RECALL ON THE DASHBOARD BY 23 DAYS. I CAN'T DRIVE CAR BECAUSE THE REFLECTION OF THE DASHBOARD CAUSES A GLARE ON WINDSHIELD. TOYOTA TELLS ME THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO.

MY PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR KEEPS FALLING DOWN AND IS IMPEDING MY LINE OF SIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP AND REPLACEMENTS SEEM TO ALSO FAIL PER THE SITE LISTED BELOW. MANY USERS REPORT THE SAME ISSUES HERE: HTTPS://WWW.TOYOHEADQUARTERS.COM/THREADS/2007-2011-TOYOTA-CAMRY-AND-CAMRY-HYBRID-SUN-VISOR-WARRANTY-EXTENSION-ZTT.114/PAGE-6 TOYOTA OFFERED A EXTENDED WARRANTY HOWEVER IT EXPIRES 7 YEARS AFTER INITIAL PURCHASE DATE OF THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS A 2007 AND NOT COVERED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE DEEMED A RECALL ISSUE.

MY CARMY HAS HAD THE STICKY DASH PROBLEM FOR OVER A YEAR AND I FINALLY DID SOME RESEARCH ABOUT IT, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT TOYOTA HAD A WARRANTY PROGRAM THAT EXPIRED A MONTH GO, 31 MAY 2017. I CALLED THEM UP AND THEY PROMPTLY REFUSED TO REPLACE MY DASH. THERE ARE STILL MANY CARS OUT THERE THAT WERE NOT FIXED ADN THIS PROBLEM CAN CAUSE DISTRACTING GLARE DURING HIGH HEAT. CAN ANYBODY SUGGEST A COURSE OF ACTION? MAYBE POTENTIALLY SUING THEM TO GET THEM TO REPAIR MORE CARS?

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION AND EXCESSIVE OIL BURNING. LAST OIL CHANGE, THE TECH STATED CHECK OIL REGUARLY (EVERY 2 WEEKS) CAR IS BURNING OIL. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS.

"TAKATA RECALL" SUN VISOR FLOPPED DOWN ON DRIVERS SIDE. APPARENTLY IT'S AN ISSUE WITH 2007-2011 CAMRY'S. CARS THAT ARE OLDER THAN MINE AREN'T HAVING THIS PROBLEM. TOYOTA SHOULD RECOGNIZE THIS ISSUE.

THE DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE MELTING. LEARNED THAT THERE IS A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ON THE VEHICLE BUT TOYOTA SAYS THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ENDED AS OH MAY 31, 2017. CAR WAS PURCHASE ON 2/8/08 WITHIN THE GEN YEAR MARK AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED VEHICLE. DID NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE OR CALL ABOUT THIS WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT AND WAS TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE BECAUSE IT WAS A MANDATE BY THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC ADMINISTRATION

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY CAMRY, I NOTICED THE DASHBOARD WAS VERY SHINY AND I THOUGHT MAYBE THAT WAS DUE TO THE DEALERSHIP CLEANING IT UP FOR ME BECAUSE I JUST PURCHASED IT. OVER TIME I NOTICED THAT THE SHINE STARTED TO BECOME AN ISSUE WITH ME WHILE DRIVING ESPECIALLY DURING THE HOT AND SUNNY TIME FRAME OF THE DAY. SO ONE DAY I DECIDED TO TAKE MY HAND AND JUST RUB THE DASH TO SEE IF IT'LL TAKE SOME OF THE SHINE AWAY AND AS SOON AS I TOUCHED IT MY HAND GOT STUCK AND BURNT FROM THE HEAT OF THE "STICKY DASHBOARD" SO WHEN I GOT HOME I DECIDED TO TRY AND CLEAN IT WITH SOME SOAP AND WATER TO SEE IF IT'LL REMOVE THE STICKINESS AND UNFORTUNATELY IT DIDN'T WORK. MY COUSIN HAS THE SAME CAR AND I CALLED HER TO SEE WHAT I SHOULD DO AND MUCH TO HER AMAZEMENT SHE DISCLOSED WITH ME THAT SHE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH HER 2007 CAMRY AS WELL. SO I TOOK MY CAR TO A GUY WHO DETAILS CARS AND NOT ONLY DID HE STATE THAT HE HAS SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE ON THE 2007 CAMRY'S BUT HE HAS SEEN THE SAME ISSUE ON THIS SPECIFIC CAR IN OTHER STATES BECAUSE HE WAS FROM NY AND ALSO LIVED IN GEORGIA AND DETAILED CARS IN THOSE STATES AS WELL. THIS HAS BECOME A NUISANCE NOW BECAUSE IT IS BLINDING ME AS I DRIVE UNLESS I PUT A CLOTH OVER MY DASH AND THEN I HAVE TROUBLE REMOVING IT BECAUSE IT IS LITERALLY GLUED DOWN TO IT AFTER THE FACT. MY DAUGHTER UNBEKNOWNST TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS HOT DECIDED TO REACH UP AND WIPE IT SO THE GLARE WOULD GO AWAY AS WELL AND SHE BURNT HER HAND TOO. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED AS THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT ON THESE CARS.

YOU HAD AN INVESTATION INTO POWER BREAKING CONCERNS, I HAD THIS ISSUE HTTPS://WWW.EDMUNDS.COM/CAR-NEWS/FEDS-CLOSE-PROBE-INTO-2007-11-TOYOTA-CAMRY-HYBRID-FOR-POWER-BRAKING-CONCERNS.HTML OCCUR WHILE ON THE ROAD TRAVELING AT SPEED. LUCKILY FOR ME THERE WAS LIGHT TRAFFIC AND NO ONE WAS STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME. WHEN THE ALARMS WENT OFF I HAD A TOTAL LOSS OF BRAKING FUNCTIONALITY INCLUDING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE UNTIL MY SPEED WAS DOWN BELOW 20MPH. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PROVIDED BY TOYOTA TO COVER THE ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE SUFFICIENT AS TOYOTAS ARE RELIABLE AND RUN FOR FAR LONGER THAN THE WARRANTY COVERED, MAKING THE VEHICLES COMPLETELY UNSAFE FOR PURCHASE AS A USED CAR. THE ALARMS ON THE VEHICLE CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MINUTES AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, THIS WAS THE 2ND TIME THE ALARMS HAD OCCURRED THE FIRST WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT MOVING SO I DIDN'T REALIZE MY BRAKES WERE AFFECTED, AT THAT TIME THE COMPUTER DID NOT EVEN REGISTER AN ALARM CODE SO TOYOTA DID NOTHING CALLING IT A GLITCH WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN, EVEN THOUGH IT'S APPARENTLY A KNOWN ISSUE.

THE VSC SYSTEM IS OUT AND NO ONE KNOW HOW TO FIX IT EVEN THE DEALER IT NOT SHOWING UP ON THE SCANNERS .I WAS ON THE FREEWAY THE CAR LIGHTS CON ON ON DASH. NO BREAKS IT WAS SCARY I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO IF A. NEXT CAR OR CARS WAS INFROUNT OF ME I WILL HAVE BEEN REAL HURT BECAUSE I WAS GOING 60 TO 65 MPH I HAD NO CONTROL. OF THE CAR CAN YOU ALL LOOK INTO A RECALL ON THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GET KILL !!!I WAS LOCKY I WAS CALM NOT EVERYONE WILL BE CALM....TAKATA RECALL...

THE ENGINE LOCKED UP AND FAILED WHILE ON A OVER NIGHT TRIP LEAVING PASSENGERS STRANDED IN THE DARK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON ONLY MINUTES BEFORE, NOT ALLOWING FOR ADEQUATE TIME TO INTERVENE. WE WERE UNAWARE AT THE TIME OF THE ENGINES PROBLEM WITH EXCESSIVE BURNING OF OIL. THE GARAGE MECHANICS WERE EXPECTING TO FIND AN OIL LEAK AS THE PROBLEM FOR THE ENGINE BURNING UP AND WERE SURPRISED TO FIND NO LEAK. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED 8 MONTHS AGO, PRE-OWNED WITH 72,000 MILES ON IT. WHEN THE ENGINE FAILED IT HAD 89,000 MILES ON IT AND $9000 LEFT ON THE LOAN. RELUCTANT TO PAY THOUSANDS TO HAVE THE ENGINE REPLACED SINCE THE ENGINE IS KNOWN TO HAVE THIS RECURRING PROBLEM.

MY BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS COME ON INTERMITTENT. WHEN THE TWO LIGHTS COME ON THE SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING AND IT'S DIFFICULT TO BRAKE. MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP STATED THAT MY ABS ACTUATOR/ABS MODULE IS GOING OUT. THIS IS THE SAME YEAR, MAKE, AND MODEL OF CARS THAT PEOPLE LOST THERE LIVES DUE TO BRAKE ISSUE. TOYOTA REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND REPAIR THIS ISSUE.

ENGINE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

KNOWN ISSUE OF EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WHERE THE OIL CHANGE LIGHT COMES ON JUST INTO 1,000 MILES AFTER CHANGING OIL. THE LOCAL DEALER AT IRA TOYOTA OF TEWKSBURY, MA.01876 - TRIED TO FIX THE PROBLEM THE FIRST TIME BUT THE PROBLEM CAME BACK OR WAS STILL THERE. I HAVE SINCE COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA US AT 1-800-331-4331 THEY OPENED A CASE#1701232302 FOR MY ISSUE BUT NOW SAY THAT THE LOCAL TOYOTA AND EVEN REGIONAL STORES CANNOT TAKE MY CAR BACK TO FIX IT AGAIN THE LOCAL STORE SAYS THAT I AM OUT OF WARRANTY BECAUSE I CAME BACK AFTER 14,379 MILES I AM NOW STUCK WITH A CAR THAT HAS ALREADY STOPPED ON ME RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET - WITH THE STEERING WHEELING BLOCKING SUDDENLY AND FOR ME HAVING TO VEER QUICKLY ON THE CURB WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL IS HARD TO CONTROL. I CAN HEAR A SQUEELING NOISE WHEN I CHANGE GEARS ( MANUAL CAR) AND WHEN I PUT THE FOOT ON THE CLUTCH. THE CAR SHAKES A LOT WHEN I CHANGE GEARS AND I AM ABOUT TO STOP. I AM AFRAID FOR MY SAFETY AND OF COURSE LOTS OF INCONVENIENCES BECAUSE I CANNOT USE THIS CAR FOR MANY ACTIVITIES INVOLVING MY FAMILY OR JUST ANYWHERE PAST 10 MILES OF MY HOUSE. I AM HOPING THAT I CAN GET HELP WITH THIS ISSUE WHICH IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY TOYOTA, AN ISSUE THAT THEY DID NOT FIX PROPERLY IN THE FIRST PLACE AND NOW THEY ARE JUST HOPING THAT I CAN GO AWAY BY DENYING ME MY RIGHTS TO PROPER SERVICE. I TOLD TOYOTA US THAT IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE HOW A KNOWN ISSUE CAN BE FIXED AND JUST WITHIN 1 YEAR IT COMES BACK.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND THE WHOLE DASHBOARD OF THE CAR IS EXTREMELY STICKY. AS IF THE PUT GLUE ALL OVER IT. I WANT TO KNOW HOW I AM ABLE TO REMOVE THIS STICKINESS WITHOUT HAVING TO CHANGE THE WHOLE DASHBOARD.

TAKATA RECALL: I TOOK MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY 4 CYL FOR THE BULLETIN IT HAS OF OIL CONSUPTION AND IT PASS THE TEST TWICE, I KNEW THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG BUT AS THE TECHNICIANS TOLD ME IT WAS OKAY I DROVE IT LIKE THAT FOR SOME MONTHS STILL HAD TO ADD EVERY 1,000 MILES 1 Q OF OIL.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY EXPANSION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 189,000.

RED AIRBAG ALERT INDICATOR HAS COME ON. THE CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION. THE ENGINE WAS OFF, AND WHERN I STARTED IT, THE LIGHT CAME ON!.

FOR SOME TIME MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN STICKY AND GLOSSY. THE REFLECTION AT NIGHT IN ADDITION TO GLARE FROM ONCOMING CARS IS BLINDING AND A SAFETY HAZARD. I'VE TRIED NUMEROUS PRODUCTS IN AN ATTEMPT TO CLEAN/REMOVE THIS TACKINESS. NOTHING WORK. ALSO THE PASSENGER VISOR "HINGE" SEEMS TO HAVE GOTTEN HOT AND BENT THAT I CAN'T TO REATTACH THE SOR. CURRENTLY IT KEEPS DANGLING. MY VEHICLE IS/WAS STATIONARY.

EVERY SINCE I PURCHASE THIS CAR IT HAS BEEN USING EXCESSIVE OIL.EVER SO OFTEN THE BLINKING OIL LIGHT WOULD COME ON CAUSING ME TO STOP AND POUR OIL IN.ZTHIS HAS OCCURRED IN MOTION AND ON CITY HIGHWAYS.

ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE SUDDENLY DROPPED TO ZERO AT SAME TIME ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASH. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, ABS AND BRAKE DASH LIGHTS TURNED OFF AT THE SAME TIME SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE JUMPED BACK TO CURRENT SPEED INDICATION.

THE CAR KEEPS CONSUMING TOO MUCH OIL. I HAVE TO PUT IN NEW OIL ABOUT EVERY 1,000 MILES.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

THIS KEEPS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY WITH NO RELATION TO SPEED OR ROAD CONDITIONS. ALSO, I LIVE IN SUNNY CALIFORNIA, AND NEVER IN MY LIFE HAVE HAD TO USE THE ABS SYSTEM FOR ANY BREAKING. I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THIS IS AN ABS BRAKE CONTROL MODULE PROBLEM, WHICH WILL COST ABOUT $2500 TO FIX. THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS!!! I AM RETIRED AND CANNOT AFFORD THIS KIND OF EXPENSE!!! I HAVE BEEN DRIVING TOYOTAS FOR OVER 40 YEARS AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM OR EVEN HEARD OF THIS PROBLEM BEFORE. MY PRIOR CAMRY LASTED FOR 14 YEARS AND 200,000 MILES AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. TOYOTA TRULY NEEDS TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR AT LEAST TELL ALL FUTURE CAMRY BUYERS TO BE PREPARED FOR A $2500 - $5000 EXPENSE IN THE FUTURE. IF I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THIS WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR I WOULD NEVER HAVE BOUGHT IT!! *JS

I BROUGHT MY CAR IN 2015 AND WHEN I TOLD THE PERSON AT MECHANICSVILLE TOYOTA THAT MY BRAKES WERE MAKING A NOISE THEY INFORMED ME TO BRING TO THE SHOP. WHEN I DID THE MECHANIC'S STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. AND FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS THEY HAVE TOLD ME NOTHING WRONG AND NOW EVERYTHING ASSOCIATED WITH THAT IS WRONG. ALL OF A SUDDEN WHEN I SPOKE TO AM ANGER THE SAME THINS I STATED WAS WRONG WITH IT IS NOW WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THE ABS ACUATOR...

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING AND HAS TAKEN ON A VERY STICKY AND SHINY APPEARANCE. EVERY LITTLE THING STICKS TO THE DASH AND IT CAN'T BE CLEANED. NOT ONLY CAN'T IT BE CLEANED, IT ALSO CREATES A LARGE DANGEROUS GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING IN THE DAY.

HI, PLEASE FIND THE ATTACHMENT. THANKS

EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE

MY MOTHER HAS A STICKY DASHBOARD AND THIS CAUSES A POTIENTIAL GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. SHE HAS BEEN IN TWO ACCIDENTS SINCE SHE GOT THIS CAR AND I AM CONCERNED THIS COULD BE IMPEDING HR VISION AND AM CONCERNED FOR HER SAFETY.LEXUS NOTICED THE STICKINESS AND REFERRED ME TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP.I CALLED THE MAIN TOYOTA NUMBER AND THE REFERRED IS TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP.THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP LEFT A MESSAGE ON MY MOM'S ANSWERING MACHINE BEFORE LOOKING AT THE CAR THAT THIS IS NOT A RECALL.I FEEL MY MOM HAD BEEN DISCRIMINATED AGAINST BECAUSE SHE IS ELDERLY AND HER FIRST LANGUAGE IS NOT ENGLISH.ANY ASSISTANCE IS APPRECIATED.

THE DASH HAS ALL CRACKED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO SHIFT THE GEAR SHIFTER FROM PARK INTO DRIVE AND A LOUD NOISE WAS PRESENT. THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ACROSS THE STREET AND CRASHED INTO A PARKED A VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. PRIOR TO THE COLLISION, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY ACCELERATED WHILE DRIVING. THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AFTER THE CRASH AND SENT AN INSPECTOR. THE INSPECTOR STATED THAT THERE WAS NO CLAIM SINCE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS PERFORMED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT DEPRESSED DURING THE COLLISION. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 34,000. UPDATED 07/11/17*LJ***UPDATED 09/21/17*LJ *CN

THE ENGINE OIL HAS BURNED UP. HAVE ALMOST NO OIL LEFT AFTER GETTING OIL CHANGE LESS THAN 3000 MILES AGO. THE IS NO OIL LEAKAGE ON DRIVEWAY WHERE CAR IS PARKED. OIL FILTER IS ON TIGHT AND OIL CAP IS ON. MY WIFE SAID SHE WAS GETTING A WARNING LIGHT OF SOME KIND THAT DAY SO I CHECKED THE OIL WHEN SHE TOLD ME. I TOOK MY CAR, BOUGHT AND ADDED 4 QTS OF HIGH MILEAGE OIL AND ZMAX TREATMENT TO MINIMIZE ANY POTENTIAL DAMAGE.

EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL USE. OIL BLOWS OUT OF THE TAIL PIPE. THE BUILDUP FOR OIL RESIDUE AT THE TAIL PIPE MAKES ME VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF A FIRE. WENT THROUGH THE LOCAL DEALER WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO PROBLEM OR OIL USE. HAD THE LOCAL MECHANIC LOOK AT IT AND HE FOUND EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. NOW HERE WE ARE WITH A DEFECTIVE ENGINE AND A COMPLETE LACK OF TRUST IN THE CAR EITHER MECHANICALLY OR FOR SAFETY.

MY ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY CAME ON WHEN I WAS AT A STOPLIGHT ONE DAY AT THE SAME TIME MY AIR CONDITIONER ONLY BLOWS OUT HOT AIR AND I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF YOU STEP ON YOUR BRAKES TOO FAST OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT THE CAR CAN SKID OR LOSE TRACTION OR EVER THE CASE MAY BE TO ME THIS IS A MANUFACTURED DEFAULT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR WARRANTY TO BE REPLACED SINCE MOST OF THESE ISSUES ARE CAUSING PEOPLE 2500 PLUS WHICH IS WAY MORE THAN THE VALUE OF THE CAR ON TOP OF THE BURDEN IT COST TO GET IT FIXED IT'S VERY DANGEROUS AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT I HAVE COMPLAINED ONLINE AND SPOKE WITH THAT THEIR ABS MODULES HAVE ALSO WENT OUT ON THIS YEAR CAR AS WELL AS MELTING DASHBOARD DEFAULTED POWER WINDOWS OIL CONSUMPTION WHICH I NEED TO GO CHECK MINE TO SEE IF THAT IS ALSO HAPPENING ON THIS MODEL 07 VERY UNETHICAL VERY DANGEROUS!!! I MEAN COME ON IF IT'S A WARRANTY ISSUE IT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT WE WOULD HAVE TO MAINTAIN ON A REGULAR BASIS AND ORDER FOR IT NOT TO BE BROKEN BUT OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN MAINTENANCE LIKE YOUR OIL OR YOUR TIRES THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED THIS IS MY FORMAL COMPLAINT THANK YOU

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ABS MODULE FAILED. THE CONTACT STATED THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE TRACTION CONTROL WOULD FAIL WHEN THE ABS MODULE FAILED. THE ABS WARNING AND EMERGENCY BRAKE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 82,000. UPDATED 06/21/17*LJ *AS

MY ABS DOESN'T WORK IN MY CAR AND CAUSED ME TO HAVE ACCIDENT. IT WAS SNOWING AND I BEGAN SLIDING , WHEN I SLAMMED ON MY BREAKS THE CAR SPUN AROUND AND HIT A POLE . IF ABS WAS WORKING THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED . THE BREAKS WOULD HAVE PUMPED AND GRADUALLY CAME TO A STOP .

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, APPROACHING FREEWAY RAMP WHEN SUDDENLY THE SUNROOF EXPLODED. GOOD WEATHER CONDITIONS, APPROXIMATELY 11:00 A.M., 04/13/17. FORTUNATELY THE INSIDE SHADE PANEL WAS CLOSED.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT A 2007TOYOTA CAMRY DECEMBER 2016 AND EVER SINCE I BOUGHT IT, IT HAS BEEN CONSUMING TOO MUCH OIL. IT WOULD BURN MY FULL TANK OF OIL AT AROUND 1K-1.2K MILES AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. I,'M AFRAID THAT THIS MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO WRECKING THE MOTOR AND PROBABLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. TOYOTA HAD A WARRANTY FOR THIS TYPE OF ISSUE BUT IT EXPIRED LAST YEAR. AND I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THIS UNTIL JUST RECENTLY SEARCHING FOR THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. TO FIX THIS PROBLEM IN WHICH I WAS NOT AWARE OF IN THE FIRST PLACE, THE ONLY SOLUTION TO THIS WOULD BE A RECALL.

I HAD TO BEAK REALLY HARD ON MY CAR WHEN I GOT CUT OFF AND NOW I HAVE A "CHECK VSC SYSTEM AS WELL AS TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT CONSTANTLY ON SINCE THE HARD BREAK.

MY CAR IS DYING WHEN IS RUNNING AND THE STEERING WHEEL GET LOCK AND DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SPEED I GO EVERYTHING TURNS OFF SO PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT IT COUD BE BECAUSE DOESN'T SHOW ANY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR ANYTHING PLEASE HELP

CAR GOES THROUGH OVER A QUART OF OIL EVERY THOUSAND MILES. TOYOTA HAS KNOWN ABOUT PROBLEM SINCE 2011 BUT WILL NOT HONOR BECAUSE THE CAR IS JUST OVER 10 YEARS OLD AND HAS 150,010 MILES ON IT. (WARRANTY IS 10 YEARS OR 150,000 MILES) NEVER WAS SENT A RECALL NOTICE. CONTACTED TOYOTA. WOULD NOT HONOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. IN ADDITION, WHEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE LOST OIL AFTER TWO OR THREE DAYS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RADIATOR DETACHED AND LEAKED WATER, AND THE OIL RING FAILED. BOTH COMPONENTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE RADIATOR WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 187,671.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.

WE OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. WE HAVE ALWAYS HAD IT REGULARLY SERVICED BY THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS PURCHASED FROM. AROUND 145,000 MILES, IT STARTED BURNING OIL RAPIDLY, AROUND 1 QUART EVERY 1,500 MILES. I STARTED RESEARCHING AND FOUND THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THIS SITUATION BUT, UNLESS THE ISSUE HAPPENS WITHIN 100,000 MILES, WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR. THIS NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED AS THEY KNOW THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLE.

ON HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH, SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE SUDDENLY DROPPED TO ZERO AT SAME TIME ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASH. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, ABS AND BRAKE DASH LIGHTS TURNED OFF AT THE SAME TIME SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE JUMPED BACK TO CURRENT SPEED INDICATION. NO LOSS OF POWER EITHER WAY, BUT HAS BEEN CYCLING BETWEEN FOR THE PAST WEEK. NOT LIMITED TO SPECIFIC SPEEDS OF AMOUNT OF TIME ENGINE HAS BEEN RUNNING, AS IT OCCURS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND VARIOUS TIMES.

THE SHORT CIRCUITING OF THE ABS ACTUATOR HAS HIT ME TOO. THIS HAPPENED ON 03/22/2017 TO MY 2007 CAMRY LE. IT FIRST CAME UP WHEN I WAS WAITING AT A RED LIGHT. THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT CAME UP AND EVEN WHEN THE CAR STARTED MOVING, THE SPEEDOMETER WASN'T MOVING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE CENTER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT IS GOING TO COST ME $2500. I DO NOT WANT TO SPEND ALMOST HALF OF THE CAR'S WORTH ON REPLACING THIS PART WHEN I WON'T BE SURPRISED IF ANOTHER PART BLOWS UP. LOOKS LIKE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE 2007 CAMRY MODEL. I AM SURPRISED THAT TOYOTA IS NOT EXTENDING THE WARRANTY OFFERED TO THE HYBRID MODEL TO THE NON HYBRID ONE. THIS IS INDEED A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND SHOULD BE FIXED. OR IS IT GOING TO TAKE A FEW ACCIDENTS BEFORE TOYOTA ACCEPTS ITS FAULT. FUEL GAUGE, TACOMETER, SPEEDOMETER DON'T WORK NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE14001 COVERS JUST HYBRID MODEL HOWEVER THE IT'S THE SAME SAME PART: BRAKE ACTUATOR

EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION TESTED BY DEALER AND APPARENTLY CLEARED RECURRED BUT NOW OUT OF EXTENDED WARRANTY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT OBSERVED THAT THE DASHBOARD SURFACE WAS MELTING, WHICH CAUSED A GLARE THAT AFFECTED HER VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,000.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CE WITH THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE IS CONSUMING ENGINE OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING TOYOTA FACTORY "EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST", AND SHOWING LOW OIL ON DIPSTICK. ON LINE RESEARCH HAS INDICATED MANY OWNERS LEARNING EITHER THEIR DEALER OR TOYOTA, OR BOTH ARE HESITANT OR REFUSING TO PERFORM CORRECTIVE ACTION AT NO COST TO THE CURRENT OWNER. ON LINE RECOMMENDATION IS THAT THIS COMPLAINT SHOULD BE FILED WITH YOUR AGENCY ALONG WITH TWO OTHER ENTITIES INVOLVED IN MONITORING TOYOTA MOTOR COMPANY AND TOYOTA DEALER RESPONSE AND REMEDIAL ACTION.

I HAVE AN EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM SO ON MARCH 2016, I GO TO THE DEALER TO CHECK AND SAID THAT MY CAR PASS THE TEST WITHOUT ANY SUGGESTION TO FOLLOW ON, I STILL HAS THIS PROBLEM AND EVEN MORE SERIOUS SO I GO BACK TO CHECK THEN THE DEALER SAID ONCE PASS IS NOT THEIR ISSUE ,I WONDER WHAT IS THE STANDARD THE PASS OR NOT PASS AND I CALL THE MAIN TOYOTA OFFICE TO ASK FOR HELP AND THEY SAID ,I CAN ASK FOR THE SECOND TEST BUT I JUST PASS THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT IS JUST PASS HALF A MONTH AGO. MY QUESTION IS I KNOW MY CAR HAS THE PROBLEM BUT I HAS NO SUGGESTION WHAT TO DO AND THEY KEEP DELAY THE CARE OF MY CAR UNTIL THE WARRANTY IS GONE . ACTUALLY MY FIRST APPROACH THIS PROBLEM IS STILL UNDER THE WARRANTY PERIOD BUT THAT IS NOT COUNT?? I DO NOT TRUST TOYOTA CAR ANY MORE AND I AM SO WORRY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MYSELF EVERYDAY WHILE I DRIVING THIS CAR. MY CAR IS JUST 10 YEARS PASS AND DRIVING ONLY 97320MILEAGES WHEN I ASK THEM ABOUT MY WORRY SECOND TIME. HOPE ANY GOOD SUGGEST AND HELP FROM YOU OTHERWISE I NEED TO GIVE UP MY CAR.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED A FEW YEARS AGO. IT HAS HAD A HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION THE ENTIRE TIME. IT HAS BEEN EXTREMELY AGGRAVATING AND COSTLY PUTTING OIL IN THE CAR WEEKLY. AS A SINGLE PARENT, I DIDN'T TAKE THE CAR TO BE FIXED BECAUSE OF FINANCIAL REASONS. I'M JUST FINDING OUT ABOUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THE TIME HAS PASSED FOR ME TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE WARRANTY. TOYOTA KNOWING ABOUT THE ISSUE MAKES IT EVEN WORSE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL INSTEAD OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WAS CONSIDERING BUYING A NEW TOYOTA UNTIL I READ THIS. THIS MAKES ME DISTRUST TOYOTA BECAUSE OF THE UNDERHANDED WAY THEY'RE TREATING THEIR CUSTOMERS ABOUT AN ISSUE THEY KNEW ABOUT.

OIL CONSUMPTION IS REALLY BAD. 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 200-300 MILES. NO VISIBLE OIL LEAKS UNDER CAR.

THE CAR USING 1QT OF OIL EVERY 300 MILES , TOYOTA RAN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST , TOLD ME NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR , THE CAR STILL USING THE SAME AMOUNT OF OIL .

AFTER TOYOTA COMPLETING AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST THEY INFORMED US THEY ADD 1 QT OF OIL AND THEN MEASURE HOW LOW IT WAS AFTER THE ADDED OIL IN THE 1200 MILE TEST AND CONCLUDED THE 1/2QT LOW WAS NOT ENOUGH TO WARRANT REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE, KNOWING THEY HAVE A DEFECT IN THE ENGINE PISTON RINGS IT WAS ACTUALLY 1 1/2 QT LOW IN TOTAL AND THEY WONT FIX THE PROBLEM AND SAID IT COULD COST US IN THE AREA OF 3-4,000$

THE LEFT SIDED-4 HEADLIGHT GOES OUT AFTER BEING ON A WHILE I HAVE CHECK ON LINE MANY CARS HAVE SAME PROBLEM.BUT TOYOTA REFUSES TO MAKE IT ARECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. AFTER DRIVING AND PARKING THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE TO FIND THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS ILLUMINATED AND THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,215.

THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND SCRATCHES EASY. TOYOTA MELTING ON THE DASHBOARD.

I DISCOVERED THAT TOYOTA HAS HAD ISSUES WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IN CERTAIN MODEL YEARS. I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WHICH WAS LISTED AS ONE OF THE VEHICLES. THIS IS MY 4TH TOYOTA OF WHICH I HAVE PUT ON OVER 1 MILLION MILES BETWEEN THESE VEHICLES. NOW WITH THIS 2007 WHICH NOW HAS 211,000 MI. I FIND I AM HAVING TO ADD OIL EVERY 1000 MI. OR THE OIL LIGHT COMES ON. I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3000 MI. TOYOTA TOLD ME NOTHING CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WAS GIVEN EXPIRED IN OCT. 2016. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN JULY, 2015 WITH 146,000 MI. ON IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT A LETTER WAS SENT OUT IN MAY, 2015 REGARDING THIS MATTER. THAT APPARENTLY WENT TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER OR THE DEALERSHIP. NOW AFTER 4 TOYOTAS....1 MILLION MILES....THEY SAY NOTHING CAN BE DONE! I DON'T AGREE.

ABS ACTUATOR HAS FAILED. SEVERAL LIGHTS ARE ON AND THE BRAKES ARE FAILING.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH 155,000 MILES THAT EXCESSIVELY BURN OIL AT THE RATE OF 1 QUART PER 1000 MILES

I HAVE GONE ABOUT 2,000 MILES OF THE 5,000 MILES AN OIL CHANGE SHOULD LAST IN MY CAMRY. I CHECKED THE OIL BECAUSE WHEN DRIVING AND BRAKING HARD THE OIL LIGHT APPEARED BRIEFLY. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT APPEARED TO BE ALMOST EMPTY, I PUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL AND IT ONLY BROUGHT THE TOTAL LEVEL JUST ABOVE THE LOW LEVEL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. THIS TELLS ME I COULD STAND TO BUY ANOTHER QUART AND PUT AT LEAST ANOTHER HALF QUART. I'VE KEPT UP WITH ALL OF THE MAINTENANCE WITH THIS CAR, HAVING JUST INSTALLED A NEW OIL PAN GASKET RECENTLY.

I JUST GOT THIS CAR NOT LONG AGO, JUST BECAUSE OF TOYOTA'S GOOD REPUTATION. NOW I AM REGRETTING IT THINKING I SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT A HONDA OR A NISSAN. I'VE BEEN DRIVING THIS VEHICLE FOR A FEW DAYS AND I NOTICED THAT IT'S LEAKING BRAKE FLUID DUE TO A FAULTY ABS ACTUATOR BRAKE PUMP 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID 44510-30270. THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS SPONGY, ALSO A HIZZING SOUND COMES FROM THE ACTUATOR AND IT DOES IT FOR ABOUT 15 SECONDS THEN STOPS; AFTER THAT I NOTICE A FEW DROPS OF BRAKE FLUID COMING FROM THE ACTUATOR, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST CAR GETS A BRAKE LIGHT WHEN IN MOTION, PROBABLY DUE TO ALL THE LEAKAGE THE ACTUATOR IT'S PRODUCING. I AM AFRAID IF I KEEP DRIVING IT WITH THIS PROBLEM IT MIGHT LEAVE ME STRANDED SOMEWHERE OR WORST YET HAVE A CRASH. I HOPE TOYOTA RECALL THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. TOYOTA YOU BETTER FIX YOUR GOOD REPUTATION, OR ELSE AMERICAN CARS WILL TAKE A CHUNK OF YOUR PROFITS.

WHILE DRIVING SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY MOVED UP AND DOWN RAPIDLY. ABS LIGHT BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON

I AM HAVING TO ADD 1-2 QUARTS OF ENGINE OIL TO MY ENGINE 1000-1200 MILES AFTER REGULARLY SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES. *TR

THE ENGINE HAS FAILED AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I DID NOT KNOW THIS WAS AN ISSUE, BUT NOW HAVE BEEN TOLD I AM OUTSIDE OF THE WINDOW THAT THEY WILL REPAIR. I DID NOT KNOW THERE WAS A WINDOW.

AFTER REGULARLY SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES, I AM HAVING TO REPLENISH 1-2 QUARTS OF OIL 1000-1200 MILES AFTER THE OIL CHANGE. *TR

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR CAME DOWN UN EXPECTANTLY AND BECAME A DRIVING HAZARD, IT HAD TO BE REMOVED THUS MAKING DRIVING MORE UN SAFE. I HAD TO PURCHASE A IMPROVED SUN VISOR FROM THE DEALER WHICH TOYOTA HAD CORRECTED THE FAULTY SUN VISOR THERE FORE WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, TOYOTA ALSO STARTED A SHORT TERM VOLUNTARY RECALL HOWEVER IT SEEMED TO BE AT THERE DISCRETION WHO RECEIVED THE REPAIR AND WHO DID NOT, WHAT FACTORS THEY USED TO DISCRIMINATE BETWEEN CUSTOMERS I DO NOT KNOW. IT IS MY HABIT TO ASK THE DEALER EVERY TIME I GO THERE FOR SERVICE IF THERE ARE ANY RECALLS OR ADVISORIES OPEN ON MY 07 CAMRY, THEY HAVE ALWAYS SAID NO! SO APPARENTLY THEY LIED TO ME ON THIS ISSUE ANY WAY, AND I HAD NO OTHER WAY TO FIND OUT SINCE THEY DID NOT DISCLOSE IT TO THE PUBLIC. MY CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A BUSY CITY STREET GOING AROUND A TURN WHEN IT CAME DOWN AND TEMPORARY BLINDED ME. IF A PEDESTRIAN HAD HOPED OUT TO CROSS THE STREET, I WOULD OF STRUCT THAT PERSON!

MADE A 90 DEGREE TURN TO PARK CAR, CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A WALL WITHIN 25 FEET OF TURNING CAUSING AUTO BODY DAMAGE. DATA RECORDER REPORT PULLED FROM THIRD PARTY SHOWS LAST FIVE SECONDS BEFORE IMPACT AND RECORDED WITHIN .3 MILLISECONDS RPB WENT FROM 400 TO 2000 AND SPEED WENT FROM 3.7 MPH TO 9.9 MPH. TOYOTA WROTE BACK AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH CAR. IF YOU REVIEW CRASH SITE AND DISTANCE CAR TURNED TO THE BUILDING, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO ACCELERATE THAT QUICKLY IN THAT SHORT OF DISTANCE. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET TURNING INTO A PRIVATE PARKING LOT.

ABS ACTUATOR FAILS AT RANDOM, CAUSING CAR THE ACCELERATE WHEN TRYING TO SLOWDOWN AND BRAKES STOP WORKING. CHECK VSC SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT APPEARS

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. TOYOTA WILL NOW OFFER ANY COVERAGE OR WARRANTY. ISSUE JUST STARTED SHOWING ITSELF THIS PAST FALL AND ONCE I LEARNED OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, TOYOTA SAID IT WAS PAST THEIR 10/31/16 DATE AND THE FACT THAT THE CARE WAS PAST THE 10 YEAR PIS DATE (BY 4 DAYS). THEY NOW SAY THIS IS A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG HERE WITH THIS MANY PROBLEMS FOR MANY, MANY CAMRY OWNERS AND NO TYPE OF RECALL WAS EVER ISSUED. VERY FRUSTRATING AND VERY DISAPPOINTING IN TOYOTA. HAVE HAD NO OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS CAR OR WITH TOYOTA IN MY 10 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. WILL NOW NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER TOYOTA AGAIN.

KNOWN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THAT TOYOTA HAS CANCELLED WARRANTY IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TESTING. CAR USES OVER A QUART EVERY 1000 MILES. HORRIBLE

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING OUR CAMRY TO WORK ON DRY CITY PAVEMENT. SHE WAS GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION (HER LIGHT WAS GREEN) WHEN SHE WAS HIT BY A CADILLAC ESCALADE. THE IMPACT WAS HARD ENOUGH IT SPUN HER AROUND ON A DRY CITY STREET AND MADE THE CAR JUMP A CURB. THE ESCALADE RAN A RED LIGHT. THE SIDE IMPACT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. TOYOTA SAID THEY BEHAVED AS EXPECTED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING INTO MY GARAGE AND HAD JUST BRAKE TO LET IT EASE IN. MY FOOT WAS STILL ON THE BRAKE, WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY REVVED AND LUNGED FORWARD. THE BRAKE WOULD NOT WORK, AND IT WAS AS IF THE CAR HAD A MIND OF ITS OWN. IT HIT THE CRATE THAT WAS IN FRONT OF THE WALL, AND FORCED A BIKE RACK THROUGH THE WALL. THE FRONT BUMPER OF MY CAR WAS CRACKED IN PLACES. THE CAR THEN STOPPED. SO SCARY! I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT TALK TO ME. I NEEDED TO CALL THE CORPORATION, WHICH I DID. AFTER TWO MONTHS OF WAITING ON A DECISION, I WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, AND THAT'S THAT. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER INCIDENTS WITH TOYOTAS JUST LIKE MINE. I AM PETRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR, AND YET I AM ALSO AFRAID TO PASS IT ON TO SOMEONE ELSE. I DON'T WANT ANYONE HURT. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA, AND THEY DO NOT RETURN MY CALLS I AM WONDERING WHAT I CAN DO. *TR

BURNING OIL AT A HIGH RATE. I HAVE TO ADD OIL EVERY 500 MILES OR SO. WE HAVE ALWAYS FOLLOWED A PLAN OF CHANGING THE OIL EVERY 3 MONTHS OR ABOUT 4000 MILES. SINCE ABOUT FEB 2016, THIS HIGH CONSUMPTION ISSUE HAS EXISTED ON THIS VEHICLE. WE'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE 2007.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. 1 QT EVERY 1000 MILES, THAT'S 5 QT PER OIL CHANGE GOING INTO THE ENVIRONMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE LOW OIL INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THE OWNER OF TOYOTA'S LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN (ZE7). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED PER THE EXPIRED CAMPAIGN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 180,000.

THE LEFT FRONT LUG NUTS DO NOT STAY TIGHTENED. EACH YEAR, OVER THE LAST 4 YEARS, WHEN CHANGING TIRES FROM THE SUMMER TIRES TO THE WINTER SNOW TIRES, THE LEFT FRONT LUG NUTS DO NOT STAY TIGHTENED. THIS FIRST CAME TO MY ATTENTION WHEN MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ALONE, IN AN ISOLATED AREA, 200 MILES FROM HOME, WHEN THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL ALMOST CAME COMPLETELY OFF BEFORE IT WAS DISCOVERED AS BEING A PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS MOVING FORWARD AT THE SPEED LIMIT ON A 2 LANE ROAD. THIS YEAR, SINCE NOVEMBER 15, I HAVE RETIGHTENED THE LUG NUTS AT LEAST 6 TIMES. I HAVE TRIED LOCK TIGHT. IT DOES NOT WORK VERY WELL. *TR

STICKY DASHBOARD - I'VE BEEN TOLD BY A CUSTOMER SERVICE REP AT TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER (NATIONAL) TO NOT DRIVE MY CAMRY IF THE DASHBOARD CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD DO TO THE GLARE.

THE VALVE COVER GASKET LEAKS AUSPICIOUSLY WITHOUT KNOWING YOU ARE LOSING OIL BECAUSE THERE IS NO LEAK BELOW THE CAR. ON THREE OCCASIONS I WENT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENGINE BURNING UP WITHOUT NOTICE.

OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP IN MAY WHEN I STARTED NOTICING CONSUMPTION. I HAPPENED TO CHECK THE OIL A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER AND IT WASN'T EVEN TOUCHING THE STICK, SO I ADDED 2 QUARTS OF OIL AND TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND ASKED THEM IF THEY EVEN CHANGED THE OIL. THEY OF COURSE SAID YES AND WE KEPT NOTICING IT BURNING QUITE A BIT OF OIL. I TOOK IT TO A MY MECHANIC AND HE IMMEDIATELY KNEW TOYOTA HAD A RECALL ON THIS MODEL BURNING OIL AND ADVISED US TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO CONDUCT THEIR TEST. WE DID THE TEST WHICH WAS DRIVE IT 1200 MILES AND BRING IT BACK AND OF COURSE THEY SAID IT ONLY BURNT A LITTLE OVER A HALF OF A QUART. I HAVE BEEN PUTTING OIL IN THIS CAR MOST OF THE SUMMER SOMETIMES LESS THAN 1200 MILES WELL OVER A QUART. I HAVE READ SEVERAL BLOGS AND SEE WHERE TOYOTA HAS BEEN SUED OVER THIS ISSUE. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED. THANK YOU *TR

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TESTED IT AND MY CAR FAILED THE TEST. THEY TELL ME I NEED NEW RINGS AND PISTON'S. ENGINE REBUILD. THEY TOLD ME I AM ON THE LIST BUT IT COULD TAKE UP TO A YEAR FOR THE PARTS TO COME FROM THE PARENT COMPANY. SO IF MY ENGINE BLOWS UP BETWEEN NOW AND THEN WHAT HAPPENS THEN?

MY CAR CAMRY HYBRID 2007 HAVE ALL LIGHT ON: MASTER WARNING LIGHT, BRAKE WARNING LIGHT, CONTROLLED BRAKE WARNING, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT. ALSO THE BRAKE IS SO HARD THAT I WAS CLOSE TO HIT CAR, I CALL TOYOTA IN ORLANDO,FLORIDA BUT THEY TOLL ME THEY DON'T HAVE ANY RECALL AND NORMALLY IS ECU PEDAL STROKE SENSOR AND ABS MODULE SYSTEM, BOTH PARTS COST IS $3,500.

VISOR ON DRIVER'S SIDE KEEPS FALLING DOWN AND IS A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING. APPARENTLY TOYOTA ISSUED A RECALL AND I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. TOYOTA HAS MY UPDATED ADDRESS AND I CONSTANTLY RECEIVE NOTICES FROM TOYOTA BUT DID NOT RECEIVE THIS ONE AND THE DEADLINE FOR WARRANTY RECALL HAS EXPIRED. *TR

I LOOKED INTO "ZE1" PROGRAM, HTTP://WWW-ODI.NHTSA.DOT.GOV/ACMS/CS/JAXRS/DOWNLOAD/DOC/UCM458138/INOT-PE14001-59690.PDF BUT I DON'T SEE MY VIN IN THE RANGE PROVIDED., NOT SURE WHY. SINCE MY CAR IS 2007 CAMRY HYBRID, IT SHOULD BE PART OF THAT RECALL ALSO. THIS IS LIFE THREATENING SITUATION WHERE YOUR CAR BREAKS FAIL ALL OF SUDDEN ON HIGHWAYS. THESE CARS SHOULD BE RECALLED OR ATLEAST GET REPAIRED AT TOYOTA'S COST. *TR

MY CAMRY IS HAVING EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION! I JUST WENT 2000 MILES AND I AM OUT OF OIL. TOYOTA IS SAYING MY YEAR AND MAKE SHOULD BE BURNING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000-1200 MILES AND THAT IS NORMAL. HAVE THEY LOST THERE MINDS!!! THAT IS NOT NORMAL!!!! THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THERE ENGINE. TO SAY A ISSUE IS NORMAL SHOWS THERE INTEGRITY. I DO MY MAINTENANCE WHEN I AM TO DO SO. I HAVE A SHOW CAR THAT I HAVE PUT ALOT OF MONEY IN AND NOW IM FORCED TO PAY FOR THERE MESS UPS.. *TR

VEHICLE HAS A OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE THAT HAS LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE. VEHICLE CONSUMES OIL QUICKLY WITHOUT SIGNS OF OIL LEAK. WE CHANGED THE OIL AND DISCOVERED IT WAS USING A LARGE AMOUNT OF OIL IN A SHORT TIME PERIOD. DRIVER WAS NOT AWARE OIL WAS BEING CONSUMED AT SUCH A HIGH RATE. DRIVER ONLY DISCOVERED ISSUE AFTER RECENTLY CHANGING OIL AND CHECKING IT. THE ONLY REASON WE CHECKED THE OIL IS BECAUSE WE HEARD KNOCKING SOUNDS FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN WE CHECKED THE DIP STICK IT HAD NO OIL.

VEHICLE HAS PROBLEM WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. LOW ENGINE OIL INDICATOR ON DESPITE OIL BEING IN THE SYSTEM. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH THE DEALER, AND TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE, BECAUSE I DID NOT RECEIVE NOTIFICATION AND THAT THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AFTER THE TIME PERIOD THAT THEY GAVE FOR REMEDIATION, THEY CAN DO NOTHING. I HAVE HAD TO PARK THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE IT IS SAID THAT THE ENGINE COULD SEIZE, AT ANY TIME, CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD.

SO AFTER LOVING MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY FOR MANY GOOD YEARS, MY HEARTACHE STARTED WHEN IT BEGAN USING OIL TO THE TUNE OF VISIBLE LOSS ON DIPSTICK AT 800 MILES. I WAS SHOCKED TO FIND LITTLE OR NO OIL ON THE DIP STICK SO I STARTED WATCHING IT CLOSELY. I CONFIRMED THAT MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CAR BURNS A BIT MORE THAN 2 QUARTS EVERY 800-1000 MILES. I LATER FOUND OUT ABOUT THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE BY RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM IN THE INTERNET AND FOUND THIS SITE ON HTTPS://WWW.DOCDROID.NET/PEHBL1S/TOYOTA-LETTER-ZE7.PDF.HTML. I CALLED TOYOTA AND ASKED THEM ABOUT THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ON MY 2AZ-FET AND I TOLD THEM I OWN 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY 4CYL LE, THEY ASKED IF I HAD RECEIVED THE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE NOTICE VIA TOYOTA. I TOLD THEM I NEVER REC'D NOTICE AND WAS TOLD I WAS TIME BARRED, WAS NOT ELIGIBLE TO GET IT FIXED? MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AS THE PRIMARY COVERAGE OFFERED WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ENDED ON OCTOBER 31, 2016 REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE AND THE SECONDARY COVERAGE WAS APPLICABLE FOR 10 YEARS FROM THE (DOFU) DATE OF FIRST USE OR 150,000 MILES, WHICHEVER OCCURS FIRST. MY CAR HAS DONE 158000 MILES. I NEED HELP *TR

BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE. DAUGHTER DROVE CAR AND APPLIED BRAKES QUICKLY TO STOP VEHICLE. BRAKES FELT ABNORMAL AND VEHICLE COLLIDED WITH REAR END OF ANOTHER VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET. DROVE VEHICLE AFTER COLLISION AND BRAKES SEEMED TO BE WORKING OK. 7 WEEKS LATER DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING VEHICLE AND HAD TOTAL SUDDEN BRAKE FAILURE. VEHICLE BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP AND SERVICE TECH SAID IT WAS MOST LIKELY A BRAKE BOOSTER FAILURE AND WOULD BE OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. VEHICLE BROUGHT TO PRIVATE MECHANIC FOR FURTHER ASSESSMENT. *TR

THIS VEHICLE USES AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL THAT COULD RESULT IN ENGINE FAILURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART ON THE SECOND ATTEMPT; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PISTON RINGS FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REBUILT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. IN ADDITION, THE DEALER MENTIONED THERE WAS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT THE CONTACT EXCEEDED THE EXPIRATION DATE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 116,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE UNKNOWN.

THE TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROPGRAM (ZE1) IS A SHAM. MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID HAS NO BRAKES, NO SKID CONTROL, AND GOES ON AND OFF WITHOUT WARNING. I TOOK MY CAR TO PERUZZI TOYOTA IN HATFIELD PA WHILE IT WAS "UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY" AND THEY FAILED TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, BECAUSE THE WARNING LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF. I SHOWED PICTURE OF THE LIGHTS ON, AND FOLLOWED TOTYOA RECOMMENDED PROCEDURES ON THE ZE1 ISSUE. I TOOK IT BACK LATER TO SAME DEALER AND THE LIGHTS STAYED ON, AND THEY SAID YES IT IS PART OF THE ZE1 WARRANTY BUT NOW IT IS PAST THE TIME LIMIT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, TOYOTA IS SHIRKING THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES BUT NOT ISSUING A RECALL. THE CAR IS DEFECTIVE, DANGEROUS, AND AT $1500 PLUS IN NEED OF REPAIRS. THE PROBLEM CAN HAPPEN STATIONARY, MOVING OR FAILING TO STOP!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING DOWN A CURVY HILL AT APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 100,000.

ON 8-19-2016, I WAS LEAVING THE HEALTH CLUB AT APPROX. 5:30 P.M. AND WENT TO CAR, TURNED ON ENGINE, PUT CAR IN REVERSE AND IT JOLTED AND SOARED BACKWARDS, GOING OVER THE MEDIAN AND HITTING SIX PARKED CARS. BRAKES DID NOT WORK DURING THIS INCIDENT. THOSE CARS SUSTAINED DAMAGES, MY CAR , A 2007 SOLARA, WAS TOTALED OUT. THIS COMPLAINT IS LATE DUE TO AN ALREADY PLANNED RELOCATION, WHICH HAS OCCURRED. STILL EXPERIENCING SOME MILD PTSD AS A RESULT.

DRIVING DOWN A HILL AFTER LEAVING HOME, WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED, THE VEHICLE SWERVED BACK AND FORTH VIOLENTLY ALMOST CHANGING LANES. AFTERWARD, IT WOBBLED SIDE TO SIDE AND UP ROCKED UP AND DOWN AS I LIMPED IT HOME AT VERY LOW SPEED. THE LOWER RIGHT REAR CONTROL ARM, THE ONE THAT CAN BE ADJUSTED, WAS EXTENDED CAUSING THE RIGHT REAR WHEEL TO BE COCKED INWARDLY AT THE LEADING SIDE OF THE WHEEL AND TIRE. A WEEK OR SO LATER, THE CAR WAS TOWED TO LES SCHWAB TIRE CENTER, 10340 SW CANYON RD, BEAVERTON, OR 97005, (503) 643-9446. THEY REPORTED THE LONG THREADED ADJUSTING SLEEVE HAD ITS THREADS STRIPPED AND THE PART FAILED. THIS SHOP HAD LAST INSPECTED THE CAR IN AUGUST OF 2016 DURING A TIRE ROTATION. THEY PERFORMED A 4 WHEEL ALIGNMENT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PURCHASE OF A SET OF TIRES IN ABOUT PRIOR TO THAT. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE CONDITION AS I DISCOVERED IT ON MY PHONE. I CAN E-MAIL OR TEXT THEM SEPARATELY. AT PRESENT, I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO DOWNLOAD THEM INTO MY COMPUTER TO INCLUDE THEM WITH THIS REPORT. I HAVE INSTRUCTED LES SCHWAB TO KEEP THE PART FOR ME. THEY WILL REPAIR AND ALIGN THE CAR TODAY OR TOMORROW. I WILL TAKE THE PART TO BEAVERTON TOYOTA FOR INSPECTION WHEN THE WORK IS COMPLETE. THERE WAS NO INCIDENT, ACCIDENT, ABNORMAL CURB CONTACT, ETC. WITH THE CAR. THE CAR'S MILEAGE IS 177+K. AFTER I DETERMINED THE CAR NEEDED REPAIR, I KEPT IT AT HOME UNTIL I COULD INSPECT IT AND DETERMINE THE PROBLEM. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO LES SCHWAB TODAY.

I HAVE JUST PURCHASED THE CAR ONE MONTH AGO AS A PREOWNED ONE. AFTER ABOUT 15 DAYS THE OIL LID TURNED ON WHILE I WAS MOVING TO MY SCHOOL. I FILLED IN THE CAR WITH AN ORIGINAL OIL. I CHECKED THE OIL STICK AFTER I LEFT THE CAR FOR 4 HOURS AND IT WAS AT THE MAX LEVEL. TWO WEEKS LATER, I CHECKED AGAIN THE OIL IN THE CAR USING THE OIL STICK AND IT WAS BELOW MIN TICK. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THE VALVE GASKET COVER BUT THE SAME ISSUE STILL THERE. BY THE WAY, THE CAR DOESN'T SHOW ANY BLACK OR BLUE SMOKE IN THE EXHAUST AND THERE IS NO SIGN OF OIL LEAK ON THE ENGINE OUTSIDE BODY. THE CAR IS NO LONGER ON WARRANTY. I AM FRUSTERATED AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!.

VSC LIGHTS AND ABS LIGHTS STAY ON AND POWER ASSIST TO BRAKES IS INTERMITTANT CAUSING EXTREME PRESSURE TO BE APPLIED TO STOP. ALSO AUDIBLE ALARM SOUNDS FREQUENTLY.

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ARE GOING ON AND OFF. ALSO, THE GAGES ARE ACTING CRAZY. WORKING SOMETIME AND NOT WORKING OTHER TIMES. THE AIR CONDITIONER IS WORKING SOMETIMES AND NOT WORKING OTHER. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE ABS PUMP/MODULE! THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS!!

TOYOTA WILL NOT HONOR RECALL OF BAD RINGS. HAVE WASTED MANY WORK DAYS AT DEALER SHIP. HAVE GOTTEN PROOF THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM THEY REFUSE TO HONOR EXTENSION. BURNS 2 AND A 1/4 QUARTS OF OIL IN 1100 MILES!

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREE WAY THE FIRST TIME THIS EVENT HAPPENED TO ME. MY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON INDICATING THAT MY BRAKE WAS ON I PULLED OVER TO CHECK IT AND MY BRAKE WAS OFF. WHEN I WENT BACK ON THE FREEWAY ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS TURNED ON AND IT WAS VERY HARD TO BRAKE I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL REALLY HARD TO EVEN GET MY CAR TO STOP. THE WARNING LIGHTS WILL STAY ON FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES OR SO AND THEN THE BRAKES LOCK AND COME TO A SUDDEN STOP. I TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHO SOLD ME MY CAR AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME IT BECAME QUITE DANGEROUS. THE BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WHILE I WAS ON THE FREEWAY GOING 65 (THE SPEED LIMIT). I WAS BEING VERY CAUTIOUS WITH MY CAR SINCE THAT HAPPENED. ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN. I WAS ON A FREEWAY RAMP MERGING TO GET ONTO A DIFFERENT FREE WAY SECTION. I COULD NOT BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. FINALLY WHEN I PUSHED THE PEDAL HARD ENOUGH MY BRAKES LOCKED AND I DID A 360 ALMOST HITTING TWO CARS PASSING ME. MY CAR IS AT THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP RIGHT NOW THEY DO NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR LIKE THIS AFTER IT DID THE 360 AT 60 MPH. PLEASE HELP I SUBMITTED PICTURES OF ALL THE LIGHTS THAT COME ON THE PICTURE IS MISSING THE ABS BUT THE ABS LIGHT COMES ON AS WELL. I ALSO SUBMITTED WHAT I THINK IS THE PROBLEM ALSO. *TR

MY ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR WAS DIAGNOSED AS FAULTY. I'VE CAR IS LESS THAN 10 YEARS OLD AND HAS ONLY 22,000 MILES ON IT SO NHTSA ACTION #PE14001 SHOULD APPLY. THE TOYOTA DEALERS REFUSE TO HONOR THE AGREEMENT BECAUSE I AM IN FLORIDA NOW BUT I PURCHASED THE CAR ON GUAM

I DID MY MONTHLY DETAIL CLEANING AND MY CLOTH KEPT STICKING TO THE DASH AND I HAD NOT EVEN PUT ANYTHING ON IT YET. NOW THERE IS A VERY SHINNY GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD AND EVERYTHING I USE TO WIPE STICKS AND RUBS OFF THE TEXTURE.

THE QUALITY OF LOW BEAM LIGHTS FOR NIGHT DRIVING IS INSUFFICIENT FOR DRIVING. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO MY TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN BAYTOWN TX AND THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS OF CLEANING THE LENSES AND REPLACING THE BULBS HAS HAD NO EFFECT. HIGH BEAMS WORK FINE. MY FIRST COMPLAINT WAS IN 2008 AND EVERY TIME I BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR MAINTENANCE, ETC. MAINTENANCE. I'M AFRAID FOR MY LIFE AT NIGHT WHEN IT IS INCONVENIENT TO USE MY HIGH BEAMS. FOR COURTESY SAKE MY SPOUSE REFUSES TO USE THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE NUMEROUS FARM MARKET ROADS WE DRIVE AT NIGHT BUT I AM IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHERE THE BLACK HORSE OR COW OR GOD FORBID A PERSON WILL EMERGE. MY SPOUSE AND SONS ALL AGREE IT'S A MAJOR PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP ME.I WOULD GET RID OF MY CAMRY BUT I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE DASH RECALL TO HAPPEN. TOYOTA IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DEAL WITH. I DON'T KNOW HOW I CAN PROVIDE PICTURES OF THE INFERIOR LOW BEAM LIGHTING. WITH MY HEALTH ISSUES I DOUBT IF I WOULD SURVIVE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION BETWEEN OIL CHANGES.

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND GOT A CHECK VSC SYSTEM ON THE CONSOLE AND WHEN A MECHANIC CHECKED THE PROBLEM, HE GAVE THE CODE - C1391 - ABNORMAL LEAK IN ACTUATOR, MY BRAKE LIGHTS ARE ON, ABS LIGHTS ARE ON, RED TRIANGLE LIGHT IS ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V689000 (VISIBILITY). THE PART NEEDED FOR THE REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

ABS ACTUATOR PROBLEM: MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS A FAILED ABS ACTUATOR. THIS WILL COST ME $2,000 TO REPLACE. THE ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE TACHOMETER STARTED FLUCTUATING WILDLY, SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 9.5 YEARS AND IT HAS ABOUT 78,000 MILES ON IT, SO I BELIEVE THE ORIGINAL PART SHOULD HAVE LASTED LONGER. I AM AWARE OF THE ABS ACTUATOR PROBLEMS ON THE 2007-08 CAMRY HYBRID MODELS, SO I THINK YOU SHOULD INVESTIGATE THE ABS ACTUATORS ON THE REGULAR CAMRY MODELS TOO.

NEW WATER PUMP INSTALLED AT TIME OF PURCHASE IN 2013 AT 89K MILES. ENGINE CURRENTLY AT 151K MILES AS OF 10/2016 AND WATER PUMP NEEDS REPLACING AGAIN. ESTIMATED ~$1200+ FOR 15HRS LABOR AND PARTS.

TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON A NUMBER OF VEHICLES BECAUSE OF A PISTON RING DESIGN FLAW. LAST YEAR THEY TESTED MY 2007 CAMRY AND SAID IT WAS OK. ACTUALLY, IT BURNED 1 QUART OF OIL (I JUST FOUND OUT FROM CUSTOMER CARE) BUT TOYOTA SAYS IT MUST BURN 1.5 QUARTS OF OIL TO QUALIFY. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS OK. MY OIL LIGHT WENT ON LESS THAN 2000 MILES IN TO MY LAST OIL CHANGE. THE CAR WAS 3 QUARTS LOW ON OIL! THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT IT DEFINITELY HAS THE DESIGN FLAW--BUT THEY HAVE TO RUN ANOTHER TEST TO VERIFY WHAT I HAVE TOLD THEM. NOW HERE IS THE ZINGER---I HAVE ONE WEEK TO DRIVE 1100 MILES. THAT IS BECAUSE TOYOTA HAS SAID THIS RECALL ENDS THEN. SOMEHOW I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR ENGINEERING DESIGN FLAW, THEIR INABILITY TO DIAGNOSE MY VEHICLE THE FIRST TIME, AND THEIR UNILATERAL SETTING OF AN EXPIRATION DATE. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS IS FAIR OR REASONABLE. PERHAPS THEY WILL SEE THE LIGHT OR EXTEND THE FINAL DATE FOR ME? I CANNOT DRIVE 1100 MILES THIS WEEK. I WOULD IF MY SCHEDULE ALLOWED IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF PARK INTO ANOTHER GEAR. IN ADDITION, WHILE REVERSING, THE GEAR FAILED TO CHANGE OVER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE CLUTCH ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AGAIN TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION, BUT THE CONDITION CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

ON 2 OCCASSIONS OUR 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID LOST BRAKING POWER. DASH BOARD LIGHTS ABS, VSC AND BRAKE LIGHT ALL CAME ON. WHEN BRAKES WERE USED, CAR HAD VERY LITTLE TO NO BRAKING POWER.

AFTER 1200 MILES, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO TOYOTA FOR SECOND PART OF THEIR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, AND WAS TOLD IT DIDN'T USE ANY OIL. AFTER PICKING UP MY CAR UP FROM MY TRUSTED MECHANIC (WHO SAID 2/3 OF TOYOTA'S RECOMMENDED REPAIRS TOTALING OVER $1600 WERE NOT TRUE), I WAS TOLD HE HAD TO ADD OIL B/C IT WAS LOW. THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF TOYOTA LYING TO CUSTOMERS SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO INCUR COSTS OR ISSUE A VALID RECALL. THEY CLAIM BURNING OIL IS "NORMAL", AND ONLY IF THEIR "TEST" PROVES SO, THEY WOULD REPLACE THE PISTON RINGS - THEY ARE LYING ABOUT THESE TEST RESULTS TO AVOID HAVING TO DO THE EXPENSIVE REPAIR.

REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED WHILE SITTING IN DRIVEWAY ON 8/15/15. DASHBOARD VERY SHINY AND STICKY, CAUSING A HORRIBLE GLARE. THE GLARE GETS SO BAD THAT SOMETIMES I CAN'T SEE OTHER DRIVERS. TOYOTA SAYS THEY WILL REPLACE IT WHEN PARTS COME IN, IT'S BEEN 2 YEARS SINCE THEN AND STILL NO PARTS. IN THE MEANTIME, THE GLARE GETS WORSE. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURS.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY BOUGHT USED WITH 62,500 MILES ON OCTOBER 4, 2016. ON OCTOBER 8TH I WAS EXITING OFF THE HIGHWAY SLOWLY EASING OFF THE GAS PEDAL TO DECREASE MY SPEED AND MY CAR SHUTS DOWN!!!! STOPS RUNNING !!! I LOST THE POWER STEERING OF COURSE. DID AT LEAST TWO AND A HALF 360'S UNTIL I CAME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF A 3 LANE ROAD. IT HAPPENED SO FAST I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I KEPT IT FROM LEAVING THE ROAD. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE FRONT END. THEIR THOUGHTS ARE IT SHUT OFF AND TO GO BUY FUEL INJECTOR THE NEXT TIME I GET GAS. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED WITH THIS HAPPENING. NOW I'M SO PARANOID ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR AND FEEL VERY UNSAFE.

DASHBOARD IS STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND HAS A SHINY APPEARANCE MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE DUE TO THE REFLECTION FROM THE SUN CREATED BY THE DASHBOARD IN THE WINDSHIELD. DASHBOARD APPEARS TO BE MELTING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FENDER, FRONT BUMPER, AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLAMP WERE REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

THE ENGINE IS EATING ABOUT 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 2500 MILES. THE CAR CURRENTLY HAS 145,000 MILES. CAR WAS CHECKED BY 2 MECHANICS AND NO OIL LEAK WAS DETECTED.

STICKY AND MELTING DASHBOARD

CAR WAS RECENTLY SHIPPED FROM OVERSEAS. WHEN I GOT MY CAR, THE DASH LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF, THE ABS MOTOR WILL NOT SHUT OFF CAUSING MY BATTERY TO DRAIN CONSTANTLY, SPEEDOMETER WILL NOT WORK, GAS GAUGE MOVES SLOW, ENGINE SHAKES AND FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO CUT OFF. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. CAR AIR CONDITION OCCASIONALLY BLOWS HOT AIR.

TOOK MY 2007 CAMRY TO AL HENDRICKSON DUE TO AN OIL CONSUMPTION RECALL. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS AN UNDERLYING PROBLEM INVOLVING THE TIMING COVER. THEY REFUSED TO DO THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST UNTIL I PAID $1,500 TO HAVE THE OIL TIMING COVER REPAIRED.

THE ABS LIGHT AND CHECK VSC LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT WENT ON. WHEN I TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES TO STOP, I REALIZED THAT THE BRAKES COMPLETELY FAILED. THE CAR WAS SKIDDING AND KEEP GOING AND I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND STILL THE CAR WAS MOVING FORWARD. I CAME CLOSE TO HITTING ANOTHER CAR AND LUCKILY STOPPED COUPLE OF INCHES FROM THE OTHER CAR. IT KEEPS HAPPENING OFTEN AND I AM WORRIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR AS IT IS. IT WORKS FINE AND SUDDENLY GOES TO THIS BRAKE FAILING MODE. ESPECIALLY HAPPEN MORE OFTEN IF IT RAINS AND MAKING IT MORE DANGEROUS.

A CAR CAKED OUT OF ITS PARKING SPACE ON THE STREET INTO TRAFFIC AS A WAS ABOUT TO PASS WHICH MADE MY CAR HIT THEM IN THE REAR AND SENT ME INTO A TREE AND THE AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED THAT CAUSED ME TO HAVE A CONCUSSION AND SPIT MY HEAD CAUSING ME TO BLEED

MY DRIVER SIDE VISOR IS DOWN AND WON'T STAY UP AND BLOCKING MY VIEW. IT'S ANNOYING TO DRIVE WITH IT TO MY LEFT SIDE. I CALLED AND THEY SAID MY VIN WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY/RECALL. SO I'M PUNISHED BECAUSE A RECALL ITEM DIDN'T BREAK WHEN THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. I THINK IF THERE'S A RECALL IT SHOULD BE FOR THE LIFE OF THE CAR. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS ONCE PART OF A RECALL.

ENGINES OIL BEING CONSUMED AT AN ACCELERATED AND DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN VISORS LOOSE WHICH HINDERS DRIVERS VIEW WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE THEY FLOP DOWNWARDS AND DO NOT STAY AT A RECOMMENDED ANGLE TO BLOCK SUN DURING USE.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS HAVING ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ON, AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY HAZARD, MILEAGE ON THE CAR IS 138000. I HAVE HEARD FROM MANY PEOPLE, ALSO THIS CAN BE SEEN IN CARCOMPLAINTS.COM THAT THIS SITUATION IS COMMNLY SEEN ON 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THIS CAR, BUT I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPAIR THIS AS I STUDY THAT THE REPAIR COST IS HIGH. DO I NEED TO SUFFER THIS LOSS SINCE I BOUGHT CAMRY OR CAN TOYOTA RECALL THIS AND PROVIDE FREE SERVICE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD MELTED AND EMITTED A STRONG ODOR. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE REPAIR COULD NOT BE PERFORMED DUE TO THE PARTS BEING ON BACK ORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 101,000.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE IS BURNING OIL AND I ALWAYS HAVE TO BE ADDING OIL, I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AFTER I RECEIVED A NOTICE ON THE MAIL ABOUT MY CAR HAVING A WARRANTY PROBLEM, EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THEY SAID THAT THE CAR WAS FINE AND THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND I TOOK IT BACK AFTER 1200 MILES AND ACCORDING TO THEM THERE WAS NO PROBLEM, THIS STARTED MORE THAN A YEAR AGO AND I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

BROUGHT MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IN FOR ROUTINE CHECK UP, TIRES ROTATION AND ALIGNMENT. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE STRUTS ARE LEAKING. I ONLY HAVE 78,000 MILES ON THE CAR.

MY CAR HAS HIT 171073 AND IS THE 2ND TIME OR 3 TIME THAT SAIDS "CHECK VSC SYSTEM"AND MY STABILITY CONTROL IS NOTBWORKING PROPERTLY THE DEALER SAID IS SOMETHING NORMAL WITH THIS YEAR MKD AND MODEL OF THE CAR PLEASE HELP.

DEALERSHIP FOUND THE ABS ACTUATOR HAD FAILED. SYMPTOMS INCLUDED: ABS AND PARKING BREAK LIGHTS RANDOMLY TURN ON WHILE DRIVING. SPEEDOMETER WILL STOP WORKING AND TACHYMETER WILL START TO BOUNCE. A/C ALSO BLOWS WARM. THERE ARE SEVERAL CASES OF THIS FOUND ONLINE AND PER CONSUMER REPORTS THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH THE ABS ACTUATOR AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED IN EXCESS. IN ADDITION, WHILE IN PARK, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000. UPDATED 12/20/16*LJ UPDATED 12/21/16.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD MELTED AND BECAME EXTREMELY STICKY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 178,000.

VISOR RECALL: I NOTICED THAT THE VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WAS GRADUALLY COMING DOWN AND DESPITE ASKING MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO LOOK INTO IT, THE PROBLEM WAS DEFERRED AND I WAS ASKED TO WAIT UNTIL IT GOT MUCH WORSE. LAST WEEK IT ACTUALLY CAME CLOSE TO A POINT OF BECOMING DETACHED ALTOGETHER; I REVIEWED THE WARRANTY/EXTENDED WARRANTY INFORMATION ON THE ISSUE AND TO MY SURPRISE I REALIZED THAT WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE ON THIS PROBLEM (VEHICLES 2007-2011); HOWEVER UPON CALLING TOYOTA I WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS NEVER A PART OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY ZTT AND EVEN IF IT WAS I WOULDN'T QUALIFY SINCE I WAS OUTSIDE OF THE 7 YEARS OF TIME LIMIT. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTIFICATION, NEITHER THE DEALER MADE ME AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, AND NOW I AM PUT IN A POSITION WHERE I HAVE TO GET IT REPLACED WITH OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES (NOT CHEAP ~ 295.00 PARTS + LABOR + TAXES). BESIDES IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN THE ENTIRE VISOR CAN BECOME DETACHED WHILE DRIVING POTENTIALLY LEADING TO SERIOUS INJURY AND ACCIDENTS. I HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH MY ELECTRONIC BRAKING SYSTEM - ACTUATOR THAT I HAD REPLACED BY PAYING $2150 OUT OF POCKET AND MADE A COMPLIANT TO NHTSB AND LATER DUE TO A NUMEROUS COMPLIANTS A WIDER RECALL WAS ISSUED AND I WAS REIMBURSED BY TOYOTA. HOPE THIS ISSUE GETS LOOKED INTO SINCE THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE WEBSITE FORUM.

WARNING SIGNS APPEARED ON DASH AND THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC. UPON DIAGNOSTIC, THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED TO CHANGE THE HYBRID BATTERY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. TOOK THE CAR TO THE LOCAL HYBRID BATTERY EXPERT AND FOUND THAT THE BATTERY WAS OPERATING NORMAL. TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED ABS ACTUATOR WAS FAULTY. TOYOTA ACKNOWLEDGED USING THE FAULTY ABS ACTUATOR AND WAS OFFERING FREE REPLACEMENT FOR VEHICLES UNDER 150K. THE CAR JUST PASSED 160K AND THE SERVICE WAS DENIED. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED BY THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR REGULAR MAINTEINANCE AND THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN INSTRUCTED TO INFORM THE CUSTOMERS OF POSSIBLE DANGER OF FAULTY ABS ACTUATOR. THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE WAS NEVER INFORMED WHEN THE CAR WAS IN FOR SERVICES AT THE DEALERSHIP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE PULLING INTO A FUEL STATION, THE STEERING WHEEL FRACTURED INTO THE DASHBOARD. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL OUT OF THE DASHBOARD AND THE WHOLE ASSEMBLY FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BRACKETS FOR THE COLUMN FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BECOME VERY STICKY -- ALMOST APPEARS TO BE MELTING. IT IS EXTREMELY SHINY AND CASTING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD, MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE, WHICH CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS.

HOOD LATCH WILL NOT CONNECT THE PART THAT IS BROKE IS THE PIECE ATTACHED TO THE CAR NOT THE PIECE ON HOOD

2007 CAMRY CE, PROBLEM STARTED WITH CAR HAVING 75K MILES. CAR NOW HAS 102K MILES. OIL CONSUMPTION IS INCREASING. NOW CONSUMING 1-2 QUARTS EVERY OTHER WEEK. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS ANY WHERE. NO LEAKS UNDERNEATH ENGINE, ON TOP OF ENGINE, AND ANY WHERE VISIBLE OR AT ALL. NO OIL LEAKS! BUT OIL IS REQUIRED REGARDLESS EVERY OTHER WEEK! CAR IS STATIONARY WHEN OIL IS CHECKED. CAUSE OF PROBLEM (I AM TOLD BY DEALERSHIP MECHANICS THAT OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY "BAD" RINGS IN THE ENGINE). THE DEALERSHIP MECHANIC SAY THEY SEE THAT PROBLEM OFTEN WITH THE YEAR, MODEL, AND MAKE OF CAR. NO PAPERWORK PROVIDED.

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ODOMETER AN TACHOMETER STOP WORKING OR GO UP AND DOWN WILDLY AT THE SAME TIME THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS HOT AIR. ALSO EXCESSIVELY BURNING OIL 1 TO 2 QUARTS PER 1000 MILES.

SEAT BELT RETRACTORS (RIGHT AND LEFT) IN THE BACK SEAT DO NOT WORK.

I'M RESPONDING TO THE KNOWN ISSUE. I HAVE A STICKY SHINY DASHBOARD THAT CHIPS VERY EASILY. IT FEELS LIKE PAINT THAT'S NOT CURED.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. IT HAS ABOUT 170,000 MILES. I GET REGULAR OIL CHANGES AND CHECK UP ON THE CAR. WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE VSC LIGHTS, BRAKES, AND BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON AND MY POWER STEERING GOES OUT. MY CAR ENGINE TURNS OFF AND I AM UNABLE TO RECRANK IT. ALL OF MY SYSTEMS ARE ON SUCH AS THE AC, RADIO, AND LIGHTS, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO START. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO BE TWICE IN 1 WEEK. THE FIRST TIME I GOT IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED IT WAS JUST THE BATTERY. SO AFTER PAYING OVER $150 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND OIL CHANGE, I DROVE MY CAR AWAY ONLY TO GET ABOUT 5 MILES DOWN THE ROAD AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME, I ALMOST CRASHED INTO A CAR WHILE I WAS TRYING TO PULL MY CAR SAFELY OFF THE ROAD. THIS LED TO A SECOND TOW TRUCK BILL AND AN IRRITABLE CALL TO THE DEALER. THE CAR IS THERE NOW AND THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS GOING ON. THEY ARE TRYING TO STATE THE CAR MAY HAVE WATER DAMAGE TO THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WHICH SEEMS TO BE TOTAL BS. MY CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY TYPE OF FLOOD ZONES. LUCKILY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE THEY PROVIDED ME WITH A RENTAL CAR BECAUSE I WAS LEFT STRANDED AFTER THEY ASSURED ME THAT MY CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. THAT IS THE ONLY UPSIDE OF THIS, HOWEVER I AM CONCERNED THEY WILL COME BACK TO ME WITH AN ASTRONOMICAL BILL FOR A COMPUTER ERROR. HAS ANYONE ELSE HAD THIS ISSUE TO HAPPEN? THIS IS VERY SCARY TO DRIVE A CAR AND IT JUST CUTS OFF ON YOU. BAD MOVE TOYOTA, BAD MOVE!

ABS, BREAK, RPM, AND DASHBOARD GOES CRAZY WHILE DRIVING. AC ALSO STOPS WORKING. THIS HAPPENS DAILY AND GOES ON AND OFF DURING MY COMMUTE. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED ALTERNATOR, BATTER, AND ELECTRICAL WIRING AND IT'S STILL AN ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A PRESENCE OF AN INTERNAL FIRE AND SMOKE EMITTED UNDER THE HOOD WITHOUT WARNING. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, IT WAS NOTICED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL CHARGE WITH THE POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE. THE BATTERY MOUNTS, BATTERY POSTS, AND METAL PLATE BURNED AND THE BATTERY CRADLE FRACTURED, WHICH EXPOSED THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER INSPECTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION CAR HAS ABOUT 88,000 MILES AND THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT HALFWAY BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I TOOK IT TO PERRYVILLE TIRE TO HAVE OIL CHECKED--WAS TOLD I HAD NONE. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, WHICH THEY TOLD ME IT PASSED AFTER THEY ADDED 1 QUART OF OIL AND THAT THIS IS NORMAL OIL CONSUMPTION. THIS IS RIDICULOUS--I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES AND NONE BURNED OIL AT THIS RATE. NORMAL--BAH, HUMBUG. I DO HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH COVERS UP TO 100,000 MILES. I DO BELIEVE TOYOTA IS TRYING TO RUN OUT THE WARRANTY.

ON AN INTERMITTENT BASIS, BRAKE AND ABS INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE ON INSTRUMENT PANEL, TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER ARE INOPERATIVE OR INDICATOR NEEDLES JUMPING, TEMPERATURE GAUGE INOPERATIVE, A/C NOT FUNCTIONING. OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN STATIONARY. BASED ON INTERNET RESEARCH OTHER DRIVERS STATE PROBLEM IS WITH ABS ECU. DEALER INDICATES TOYOTA WILL NOT FUND REPAIR. BASED ON APPARENT FREQUENCY OF PROBLEM, TOYOTA SHOULD COVER COST OF REPAIR. PER DEALER, PART COSTS ABOUT $1700.

MY DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE OUT OF NOWHERE. I WAS LOOKING ONLINE AND I SAW WHERE TOYOTA WAS REPLACING THEM FOR THIS SUCH REASON. UNFORTUNATELY, I WAS TOLD THAT THE WARRANTY WAS ONLY GOOD FOR 7 YEARS FROM FIRST USE. MY WARRANTY RAN OUT 2 YEARS AGO, SO I GUESS I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. I THINK SINCE IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE, IT SHOULD BE REPLACED OR AT THE LEAST GIVEN A DISCOUNT ON HAVING TO BUY A NEW ONE.

LESS THAN 60K MILES AND NOW MY CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHT IS ON AND BRAKES ARE NOT VERY RESPONSIVE. TAKES A LOT LONGER TO STOP.

1) FRONT HEADLAMPS BURN WEAK AND PLASTIC LENS COVERS YELLOWED OVER TIME, LATTER PROBLEM OF WHICH IS THAT LENSES CAN'T BE CLEANED BY EITHER COMMERCIAL AUTO SOLVENTS OR BY LOCAL MECHANIC, CREATING SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT. PRICE QUOTED FOR PARTS ALONE VIA TOYOTA IS $818 FOR HEADLAMP SET, PLUS LABOR. I HAVE OWNED 2 OTHER CAMRY MODELS AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUE WITH HEADLAMP OBFUSCATION DUE TO LENS MATERIAL OR BULB COMPOSITION. THIS VEHICLE'S HEADLAMP LENS COMPOSITION IS FILMY TO CLOUDY TO NAKED EYE IN DAYLIGHT, NOT NEARLY CRYSTAL CLEAR AS WHEN NEW.. EVEN IF BULBS WERE REPLACED THE LENS WOULD OBSCURE RADIUS AND LENGTH OF HEADLAMP FOR ANY NIGHT DISTANCE DRIVING OTHER THAN HEAVILY LIT STREETS. MUST USE HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT WHEN POSSIBLE AND WHEN NOT HAZARD TO ONCOMING DRIVERS. EVEN HIGH BEAM DISTANCE DULL. NOTICED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND OTHER CARS ILLUMINATE THEIR OWN PATHWAY FAR BETTER THAN MY OWN. NIGHT TIME DRIVING ON RURAL, SEMI-RURAL, COUNTY, SUBURBAN OR UNLIGHTED STATE AND LOCAL HIGHWAYS IN PARTICULAR ARE A HAZARD. 2) ENGINE HAS REGULARLY BURNED 1 QUART OF OIL ABOUT EVERY 1,000 MILES SINCE CAR HAD CLOCKED 60K MILES. UNDERWENT OIL TEST UNDER EXTENDED RECALL BULLETIN VIA TOYOTA AND IT DEEMED CAR WITHIN SPECS (TIME OF YEAR AND TYPE OF OIL CAN VARY AMOUNT OF OIL BURNED BUT RECOMMENDED 5W20 RESULTS IN 2-3 QUARTS A MONTH BURNED OFF, NO LEAKS, 75% HIGHWAY DRIVING.). BIGGER ISSUE IS OIL CAN GET DANGEROUSLY LOW (AT LEAST QUARTER INCH BELOW DIPSTICK LOW LEVEL) AND NO DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT COMES ON. OIL LEVELS MUST BE CHECKED MANUALLY AT LEAST WEEKLY AND/OR AT FILL-UP TO ENSURE OIL TANK HAS ENOUGH OIL. GENERALLY HAVE BEEN ADDING 2 TO 3 QUARTS A MONTH. DESPITE TECH BULLETIN RECOMMENDATIONS, TOYOTA SAYS I AM INELIGIBLE FOR MECHANICAL REMEDIATION. CAR CURRENTLY RUNS AND HAS 160K MILES +/- ON IT. DATE BELOW IS APPROXIMATE FOR 60K MILEAGE..

BOTH MY SUN VISORS HAVE BROKE TO THE POINT THEY ARE BECOMING A SAFETY ISSUE. THEY NOW DANGLE AND WILL NOT STAY UP. IM READING THIS HAS BECOME A HUGE ISSUE FOR MANY TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS. I CAN UNDERSTAND IF THERE WAS A LOT OF WEAR AND TEAR ON THEM HOWEVER I KNOW THERE IS NOT AND SHOULD NOT BE BREAKING THIS QUICKLY.

JULY 2016, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DIAGNOSTIC INDICATED CODE P171. WAS ADVISED IT WAS A LAUNDRY LIST OF SYSTEMS TO CHECK FOR THIS CODE. ( REPLACED THE FOLLOWING; FLEX PIPE, 02 SENSOR, SPARK PLUGS AND FUEL PUMP. FOR A TOTAL OF 1400.00) WHILE DRIVING ON I-95 AT 60 MPH, AIRBAG LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT AND SEAT BELT LIGHT ALL ILLUMINATED AT THE SAME TIME. TECHOMETER SURGED OUT OF CONTROL, ENGINE TEMP GAUGE DISPLAYED NO READING AND SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO. OH AND YEAH, THE AC THAT WAS BLOWING VERY COLD AIR SWITCHED TO WARM OR HOT. ALL OF THESE ISSUES HAPPENED AT THE SAME TIME ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH. IRONICALLY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE AND THE MECHANIC IS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE AS THERE IS NO CODE ISSUED FROM THE COMPUTER FOR THIS VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND THERE IS NO WARNING. THE ENGINE PERFORMS NORMAL DURING THIS ISSUE WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE AC THAT FAILS EVERY TIME. THIS ISSUE CAN AND HAS HAPPENED WHEN THE CAR IS SITTING PARKED WITH ENGINE RUNNING AND WHILE IN MOTION. I AM SO AFRAID THAT THIS EVENTUALLY WILL CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT OR DEATH. AND THE MOST ANNOYING PART IS NO MECHANIC CAN TELL ANY OF US WHY THIS HAPPENS OR HOW TO FIX IT. PLEASE, PLEASE, HELP US BEFORE THE WORST HAPPENS.

DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR DOES NOT SNAP BACK IN PLACE. DROOPS DOWN AND AFFECTS VISION.

WENT TO HAVE MY OIL CHECK BECAUSE MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON / MY MECHANIC CHECK THE OIL STICK THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE CAR AT ALL. SO HE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS NO OIL LEAK THERE WAS NONE. THAT IS WHEN WE WENT TO THE WEB SITE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THE OIL COMPLICATION PROBLEM. TOUCH MY CAR TO SCOTT CLARK TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR. THEY HAD ME DRIVE IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS UNTIL I REACHED THE MILEAGE THEY NEEDED FOR ME TO GET IT TESTED AGAIN TOOK IT BACK ON 7/23/16 IT PASSED THE TEST AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS GOOD AND THAT IT WAS ONLY LOSSING A QUART OF OIL . THEY WOULD NOT FIX MY CAR BECAUSE IT PASSED THE TEST. NOW I HAVE A CAR THAT I NEED TO HAVE REPAIRED BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO GET ANOTHER CAR. WITH ME DRIVING THE CAR WITH THE OIL LIGHT COMING ON WAS MY SIGN TO STOP AND HAVE IT CHECKED. IF I WOULD HAVE NOT THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE BLOWNED. SO I NEED TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO NOW TO GET THESE PEOPLE TO FIX MY CAR ASAP.THEY ALSO TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD BE SIX MONTHS DOWN THE ROAD BEFORE I COULD GET IT REPAIRED BECAUSE THEY ALREADY HAD A BACKLOG OF CARS THAT ARE WAITING TO BE REPAIRED. THIS WAS BEFORE THEY LET ME KNOW IT HAD PASSED THE TEST. BRAD BENNICK OF SCOTT CLARK TOYATO TOLD ME I COULD DRIVE MY CAR ANOTHER 200,00 MORE MILES WITH THIS OIL PROBLEM. I KNOW THAT IF YOU HAVE A OIL LEAKE THERE'S KNOW WAY YOU CAN CONTINUE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH THAT PROBLEM. SO I NEED SOMEONE TO HELP ME IN THIS MATTER. SCOTT CLARKS IS A PLACE I THOUGHT CARED ABOUT THERE CUSTOMERS BUT I WILL NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER CAR FROM THEM OR TELLING ANYONE TO PURCHASE A CAR FROM THIS COMPANY. SO WHAT SHOULD I DO? THIS HAPPEN ON 6/11/16 AND TOOK MY CAR IN ON 6/13/16 FOR THE FIRST OIL TEST.

THE TACHOMETER, SPEEDOMETER, AND ODOMETER WORK SPORADICALLY, MOSTLY THEY ARE NON FUNCTIONAL. ALL WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER IS NOT WORKING. THE GAS AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE WORK MOST OF THE TIME. THE AIR CONDITION FAN WORKS NORMALLY BUT THE AIR CONDITION BLOWS COLD AIR ONLY WHEN THE SPEEDOMETER IS WORKING.

SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER AND TEMPERATURE GAUGE EITHER STOP WORKING, OR BOUNCE AROUND, OUT OF CONTROL. THE BLOWER FOR THE AC WORKS, BUT WHEN THE CONDITION EXISTS, THERE IS NO COLD AIR. THINGS ARE NORMAL AT A COLD START, BUT DETERIORATE FROM THERE, STATIONARY OR ALL TYPES OF DRIVING.

DASHBOARD MELTING. STICKY OOZING EVERY PART OF DASH. GLARES ONTO WINDSHIELD LIKE A MIRROR AND DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF WINDSHIELD. CANNOT TOUCH IT W/O GETTING STICKY.

THE VISOR BEGAN FALLING WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I TRIED TO PUT IT BACK UP BUT IT WAS SAGGING AND EVENTUALLY POPPED CAUSING TO STAY DOWN UNLESS I FORCIBLY PUSH IT BACK UP. IT IS A DISTRACTION AND NOW CANNOT GO BACK UP WITH EXTREME FORCE (WHICH IS CAUSING THE LINING TO COME APART).

THE SUNROOF IN MY DAUGHTER'S 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY EXPLODED. WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING, SHE HEARD WHAT SHE DESCRIBED AS A "GUN SHOT SOUND". AFTER NOTICING SMALL SHARDS OF GLASS IN THE SEAT, SHE PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER EXITING THE CAR, SHE SAW THAT THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED! HER MOTHER AND I LEFT WORK TO MEET HERE AND I COULD TELL INSTANTLY THAT IT EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE, OUT! LUCKILY, MY DAUGHTER WAS OK AND ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD FIX IT AND GIVE ME A NEW MOTOR AFTER WAITING SIX MOUTHS THEY TOOK MY OLD MOTOR APART AND NEVER FIXED IT I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE MOTOR SITTING IN THE CAR. NOW I HAVE NO MOTOR AND I'M STILL PAYING ON THE CAR THE DEALERSHIP WON'T FIX IT AND THE CORPORATION WILL DO NOTHING EITHER I ONLY GOT TO DRIVE MY CAR FOR FOUR MONTHS OF HAVING IT.

PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA IN MARCH 2008 WITH 22 MILES ON IT. BEGINNING IN 2014 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT WOULD GO OUT WITHIN 5-10 MINUTES OF DRIVING. BY TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS ON AND OFF, THE HEADLIGHT WOULD STAY ON. BEGINNING IN 2015 WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT NIGHT, THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT STARTED GOING OUT AFTER 3-5 MINUTES OPERATION AND I WOULD TURN THE LIGHTS ON AND OFF AND THE LIGHT WOULD STAY ON FOR ANOTHER 3-5 MINUTES. I REPLACED THE BULB, ONLY TO FIND THE PROBLEM WAS REOCCURRING. HAD THE FUSES CHECKED BY A MECHANIC'THEY WERE FINE. HAD THE WIRING CHECKED, IT WAS FINE. WHAT STARTED HAPPENING SHORTLY AFTERWARDS IS DANGEROUS AND FRIGHTENING: WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, BOTH HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT WITHOUT NOTIFICATION AND IT TOOK 2-3 TIMES OF TURNING THEM ON AND OFF BEFORE THEY BOTH CAME BACK ON' THEN 3-5 MINUTES LATER THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT WENT OUT. I HAVE TRIED EVERY COMBINATION OF LIGHTS I KNOW, BRIGHTS, AUTOMATIC, MANUAL.. HIGH BEAMS, FOG.. THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT WILL GO OUT. THIS EVENING WHILE DRIVING IN THE DARK, BOTH HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT ON A WINDING ROAD, I DECIDED IT WAS TIME TO RE-INVESTIGATE TO SEE IF THIS IS A RECURRING/KNOWN PROBLEM. SADLY, IT APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN PROBLEM IN A FORUM, BUT NOT AN ADMITTED PROBLEM BY THE MANUFACTURER. I CANNOT SELL/TRADE THE VEHICLE KNOWING OF THIS ISSUE, NOR WOULD I GIFT THIS VEHICLE TO MY TEEN. I AM STUCK WITH THIS VEHICLE UNTIL I CAN FIND A TRUE RESOLUTION.

MELTING/DECOMPOSING DASHBOARD CAR WAS PURCHASE FROM MY SON-IN-LAW/ELDEST DAUGHTER (BOUGHT FROM HIS MOTHER NEW) FOR BY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER. AFTER A MONTH OR TWO AFTER THE PURCHASE, I NOTICED THAT THE INTERIOR WAS PITTING AND WAS ALL MARKED UP AND LITERALLY DECOMPOSING. I WRONGLY BLAMED MY DAUGHTER AND HER FRIENDS FOR THIS APPARENT ABUSE UNTIL HEARING ABOUT THIS ISSUE ONLINE. AFTER MY PROPHETIC APOLOGY TO MY DAUGHTER, I ASKED HER TO TAKE IT INTO THE DEALER TO "GET THE BALL ROLLING". I WANTED HER TO LEARN HOW TO DO THIS ON HER OWN. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER AFTER BEING ASSURED THAT THE REPLACEMENT DASH WOULD BE AT THE DEALER, THEY TOLD HER THAT IT WAS THE WRONG COLOR AND WOULD HAVE TO BE RE-ORDERED. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER THIS WHOLE ORDEAL WAS STARTED, THEY EXPLAINED THAT THERE WERE NO DASHES IN THE US WHATSOEVER. I THEN DECIDED TO CALL TOYOTA US DIRECTLY TO EXPLAIN OUR SITUATION. I WAS TOLD THE SAME THING AND THEY VERIFIED THAT THE ACTUAL ORDER DATE WAS MARCH 8TH 2016 (WHAT??) AND THAT THE COMPANY CONTRACTED TO PRODUCE THESE DASHES CURRENTLY HAS A 6-18 MONTH BACKLOG. I THEN ASKED IF THERE HAPPENED TO BE AN AIRBAG ISSUE AND THE DASH WAS DAMAGED WOULD I HAVE TO WAIT TO HAVE THIS REPAIRED. THEY SAID NOT LIKELY...SO WHAT THIS TELLS ME IS THAT THE DASHBOARDS ARE OUT THERE "SOMEWHERE" BUT NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THIS PARTICULAR RECALL AND OUT-OF-WARRANTY CAMPAIGN (DIFFERENT BUCKET). I HAVE ALSO LEARNED THAT THIS CAMPAIGN CAN BE TRANSFERRED TO THE NEW OWNER (PROVIDE THEM WITH THE CASE #). I ALSO LEARNED THAT TOYOTA IS NOT THAT HIGH QUALITY, BEGIN ALL- END ALL UBER AUTO MANUFACTURERS THAT ALL OF THE MAGAZINES LEAD US TO BELIEVE THAT IT IS.

TOYOTA SENT ME AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LETTER AND UPON TAKING IT TO RALPH HAYES TOYOTA TO DO THE TEST I WAS TOLD MY CAR DID NOT QUALIFY. I PERFORMED THE TEST MYSELF AND FOUND IT USED ONE OR MORE QUARTS OF OIL IN THE 1300 MILES SUGGESTED IN THE LETTER. THE CAR EMITS A LARGE CLOUD OF OIL SMOKE ON MORNING START UPS.

MY VEHICLE NOT ONLY GOT AN EXTREMELY STICKY DASHBOARD BUT IT ALSO STARTED BURNING OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I HAD EVERY RECALL TAKEN CARE OF AS SOON AS I RECEIVED IT AT & ALSO KEPT UP WITH ALL OF THE MAINTENANCE ON MY VEHICLE AT A CERTIFIED MECHANIC SHOP. I HAVE ALL OF MY SERVICE RECORDS & WITNESSES. THE END OF 2015 MY CAR STARTED BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I ENDED UP TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC & HE WAS ADDING OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES STATING IT WAS NORMAL FOR IT TO BURN OIL. THEY ALSO WENT WITH A THICKER OIL TO TRY TO FIX IT.I WAS ALSO ADDING OIL WHENEVER IT STARTED GETTING LOW. WELL MY CAR OVERHEATED & CRACKED MY HEAD GASKET. AFTER GOING ONTO TOYOTAS WEBSITE & TYPING MY VIN NUMBER IN, IT STATES THERE AREN'T ANY RECALLS OR SERVICE CAMPAIGNS. I STARTED SAVING MONEY UP TO HAVE MY ENGINE REPLACED SO IT'S BEEN SITTING FOR MONTHS. AFTER REALIZING I COULDN'T POSSIBLY AFFORD IT, I WENT ONLINE TO GET BLUE BOOK VALUES TO SELL IT.I FOUND OUT THERE WERE 2 TSBS COVERING MY DASHBOARD & MY ENGINE BURNING OIL. THEY ARE SAYING SOMETHING WAS MAILED TO ME EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IF I WOULD HAVE RECEIVED ANYTHING I WOULD HAVE HAD IT FIXED IMMEDIATELY.AFTER CONTACTING AN ATTORNEY WHO HAD A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST TOYOTA, HE STATED TO ME THAT NOTHING WAS MAILED OUT TO CUSTOMERS. AFTER CONTACTING 2 TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS & TOYOTA SERVICE, THEY BOTH RAN MY VIN # & IT SHOWS THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR BOTH PROBLEMS.CUSTOMERS DID NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THIS UNLESS THEY CALLED THE DEALERSHIP.TOYOTA SERVICE STATED TO ME THE ONLY WAY THEY WOULD REPLACE ANYTHING TO DO WITH MY ENGINE IS IF AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IS RUN, WELL MY ENGINE IS BURNED UP.IF MY CAR WAS BEING WORKED ON BY A CERTIFIED MECHANIC & I HAVE SERVICE RECORDS PROVING ALL OF MY RECALLS & MAINTENANCE WAS DONE, THEY SHOULD HONOR THAT.THERE ARE LOTS OF COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER OWNERS STATING THE SAME THINGS.

BORROWED MY MOM'S 2007 HYBRID CAMRY WHICH SHE HAS BEEN BRINGING TO CITY TOYOTA IN DALY CITY, CA, FOR MAINTENANCE. WHILE ON FREEWAY I NOTICED DELAY IN RESPONSE WHEN BRAKING AND HAVE TO PRESS DOWN HARDER AS DID MY DAUGHTER WHO USES IT FOR WORK. CALLED CITY TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD THERE'S A LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN (LSC) #E0U FOR BRAKE RESERVOIR TANK REPLACEMENT WHICH SHOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE (SIMILAR TO A RECALL). AFTER SPEAKING TO TWO SERVICE EMPLOYEES I WAS TOLD THAT I CAN LEAVE THE CAR ON SAT, JUNE 18, AND SHOULD BE FIXED BY THE COMING MONDAY. THE SERVICE MGR, CALLED ME AND SAID I NEEDED TO GET A DIAGNOSTIC COMPLETED FOR $160 AND IF IT'S RELATED TO THE LSC I WOULD BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE $160. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO LEAVE THE CAR FOR ONE WEEK. I EXPLAINED I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY THE DIAGNOSTIC IF THE BRAKE PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE LSC. HE THEN TOLD ME THAT HE WOULD NOT FIX THE CAR "BECAUSE OF OUR CONVERSATION". THIS WAS UPSETTING AS MY HUSBAND AND I DROVE 2 CARS 20 MILES AWAY SO THAT I CAN GET BACK HOME. I TOLD HIM TO JUST FIX THE LSC AND DO NOT DO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND HE TOLD ME TO PICK UP MY CAR SINCE HE WILL NOT AUTHORIZE ANYONE TO FIX IT. SO I PICKED UP MY CAR AGAIN WITH MY HUSBAND AND WILL BE TAKING IT ELSE WHERE. THE SERVICE MGR ALSO LIED ON THE INVOICE STATING THAT I DECLINED THE OFFER TO FIX THE LSC AND THAT HE OFFERED TO FIX IT AND COMPLETE THE WORK ON THE SAME DAY. WHY WOULD I GO BACK AND FORTH WITHOUT HAVING THE CAR FIXED WHEN I KNOW IT SHOULD BE DONE FOR FREE? THIS SERVICE MANAGER ACTED UNPROFESSIONALLY AND IS A LIAR. IN ADDITION, MY MOM BROUGHT IN HER CAR FOR A 45K SERVICE EARLY 2016 WHICH INCLUDED BRAKES AND ALSO IN 2015 FOR 40K SERVICE. THE LSC DATE WAS EFFECTIVE JULY 10, 2014, WHICH MEANT THAT CITY TOYOTA NEGLECTED TO FIX THIS BRAKE PROBLEM DURING THOSE 2 TIMES.

I ADHERED TO THE RECALL ZE7 OIL CONSUMPTION TEST NOTICE ISSUED BY TOYOTA. OVER THE NEXT 6MONTHS WATER/COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE THROUGH WHAT I LEARNED COULD HAVE BEEN A FAULTY ENGINE HEAD GASKET. MY 2007 CAMRY HAD NEVER RUN HOT BEFORE TOYOTA TOOK MY ENGINE APART AND PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. THEY DO NOT WANT TO ADMIT THEIR ERROR. THE OIL DIP STICK SHOWED SIGNS OF WATER OIL MIXTURE. LATER IT WAS LIKE MILK. THIS IS WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED ON ME IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC FROM OVER HEATING. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE DEALER AND TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS SINCE APRIL 2016 TO RESOLVED THIS. GOT THE RUN AROUND. SOME TECHNICIAN WAS SCHEDULED TO REVIEW THIS IN APRIL AND MAY 2016 BUT HAS NOT. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

TOYOTA DEALER SAYS IT'S THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ECU WHICH, JUST FOR THE PART, RUNS AROUND $2000. I SEE A RECALL FOR THE HYBRID BUT NOT MY MODEL AND NOTICED OTHER OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE ON THE WEB. MY CAR IS ONLY WORTH ABOUT $5000. I HAVE OWNED CAMRYS IN THE PAST BUT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I HAVE ANY REAL ISSUES WITH THIS YEAR MODEL. I HAVE A 1989 THAT IS STILL RUNNING WITH ALMOST 350,000 MILES ON IT. MY PRESENT VEHICLE ONLY HAS A LITTLE OVER 160,000.

IN ADDITION, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MAY NEED A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE OF THE RAPID OIL CONSUMPTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,600.

IN THE FRONT PANEL AREA, WHERE THE GEAR SHIFTER IS, THERE'S A SMALL COMPARTMENT HOUSING A SWITCH WITH WHICH I CAN MANUALLY PRESS TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE WHEN THE CAR WON'T DO THIS BY POSITIONING THE GEAR SHIFTER INTO THE REVERSE POSITION BY PULLING IT DOWN.. MY PROBLEM IS, WHEN I TAKE IT TO BE CHECKED..THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO IF IT'S NOT HAPPENING AT THE TIME I BRING IT IN, WHICH IS ALWAYS THE CASE AS IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY, BUT NEVER DOES IT WHEN I TAKE IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP! THIS IS FRUSTRATING AND HAS CAUSED PROBLEMS IN DIFFERENT WAYS. I HOPE SOMEONE TAKES NOTICE OF MY PROBLEM WHILE MY EXTENDED WARRANTY IS STILL IN EFFECT SO THAT I CAN GET THIS FIXED. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPRESS IT. I NEVER KNEW WHO TO SEND A 'COMPLAINT' TO. THANKS AGAIN!

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE THE STEERING WHEEL IS STICKING OR BINDING WHEN TURNED BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT. THE STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT RETURN TO CENTER BY ITSELF. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY MIKE CALVERT SERVICE DIRECTOR GRANT MILES. ON SERVICE TICKET TOCS 224493 THERE REMARKS WERE TEST DROVE VEHICLE AND COULD NOT FEEL A PULL ANY DIRECTION CHECKED ALIGNMENT SPECS AND SPECS WERE AT FACTORY SETTINGS RELATED TO STEERING ISSUE...,AND FELT AT FULL TURN TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT, THE WHEEL WOULD NOT ROTATE BACK WHEN GOING FORWARD... WHEN GOING IN REVERSE WITH THE S/WHEEL TURNED ALL THE WAY LEFT OR RIGHT THE S/WHEEL DOES RETRACT AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO...DURING NORMAL TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT THE S/WHEEL DOES RETRACT AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO... IT'S ONLY WHEN THE S/WHEEL IS TURNED FULLY LEFT OR RIGHT THE STEERING WILL NOT RETRACT.... WE CONCLUDED THAT THE ISSUES DESCRIBED BY ARE A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS YEAR AND MODEL VEHICLE. MIKE CALVERT ADMITS MAKING MY CAR WORST THAN IT WAS BEFORE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE. THE STEERING WHEEL NOW STICKS IN BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT TURNS AND AT LOW SPEEDS THE TIRES FEEL LIKE I HAVE AN FLAT. I HAVE HAD TIRES REPLACED BECAUSE FRED HAAS TOLD ME THAT THE STEERING WHEEL STICKING WAS BECAUSE OF MY TIRES, THEY ALIGNMENT WAS OUT OF SPECS. I FEEL THAT IS A UNSAFE CONDITION AND NEED TO BE ADDRESSED. TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS OF NO HELP. I HAVE BEEN TO THREE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS PROBLEM. ALL HAVE THE SAME ANSWER BAD TIRES, ALIGNMENT, AND NORMAL CONDITION FOR YOUR CAR STEERING WHEEL TO STICK AND YOUR CAR WILL DO CIRCLES WHEN LOW SPEED TURNING WITHOUT YOUR HAND ON THE WHEEL. TWO TOYOTA TECH. HAVE BEEN IN THE CAR WHEN THIS IS HAPPEN. THERE RESPONSE WAS NORMAL TO DO THAT. THE SERVICE DIRECTOR HAS NOTED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT FULL TURNS. MY CAR WAS ONLY STICKING TO THE LEFT BEFORE TAKING IT TO MIKE CALVERT TOYOTA.

TAKATA RECALL NOTHING HAS HAPPENED SO FAR. BECAUSE THE 2007-2011 LEXUS ES WAS RECALLED FOR SOME REGIONS, I WAS WONDERING IF THE 2007-2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SHOULD ALSO BE RECALLED AS WELL, SINCE THE LEXUS ES IS BASED ON THE TOYOTA CAMRY.

MY 2007 TOYOTA,DASHBOARD IS MELTING,I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BACK IN 2012,I AM STILL WAITING FOR MY DASH TO BE REPLACED.

MY OIL LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME I BREAK

MY FATHER-IN-LAW IS A AUTO MECHANIC. HE CHANGES THE OIL IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY EVERY 2500-3500 MILES. THIS IS WELL BEFORE THE RECOMMENDED 5,000 MILE SERVICE REMINDER LIGHT COMES ON. THE CAR ALWAYS BURNED OIL BUT OVER THE LAST YEAR HE HAS NOTICED THAT THE CAR IS BURNING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE OIL. HE RECOMMENDED THAT I TAKE THE CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER FOR A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I TOOK THE CAR TO ROUTE 44 TOYOTA IN RAYNHAM MA FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN WITH 147,212 MILES FOR THE TEST AND A OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR BACK BETWEEN 148,212 - 148,512 MILES. I NOTICED THAT AFTER I ORIGINAL BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE THE TEST, THE CAR WOULD IDLES AT 800 RPM WHEN STOPPED, AFTER THE OIL CHANGE AND TEST THE CAR IDLE AT 500-600 RPM. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO ROUTE 44 TOYOTA FOR PHASE II OF THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WITH 148,290 MILES. THE SERVICED ADVISOR SAID THAT THE CAR PASSED THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND WAS ONLY DOWN 1/2 A QUART OF OIL. THE CAR BURNS MORE THAN A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES BUT THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THAT IT DOESN'T. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE CAR WAS BACK TO IDLING AT 800 RPM WHEN STOPPED.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION.

THE INSTRUMENT THAT SHOW SPEED, RPM, GASOLINE, ETC WAS GOING WARY. THE SPEED AND THE RPM GO UP AND DOWN, BRAKE LIGHT COME ON, ABS LIGHT COME ON, ETC. I DO NOT HOW FAST I DRIVE. THIS HAPPENED AROUND EVERY 5 MINS, RANDOMLY AND LAST FOR 1 MINS SOMETIMES 10 MINS. THE AIR CONDITIONING STOP WORKING DURING THIS TIME. I CHECKED ONLINE AND I SAW MANY PEOPLE EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM, THERE IS NOT RELATE ISSUE WITH THE WAY YOU DRIVE, THE WAY YOU DO ANYTHING IN THE CAR. I USED THE CARD SINCE NEW AND THE MILEAGE CURRENTLY ONLY 103K+, FOR 9 YEARS OLD CAR THIS IS VERY LOW MILEAGE.

MY CAR STARTED TO THROW SMOKE FROM BEHIND THE CLUSTERS I STOPPED QUICKLY I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND I DESCONECTED THE BATTERY.AFTER A COUPLE MINUTES I TOOK OFF THE CLUSTERS AND I FOUND THE PROBLEM.I BOUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND I'ME ON HOLD TO SEE IF TOYOTA WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE PART # 82671-33070 IT MAKES THE CLUSTERS CRAZY AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS FROM CLUSTER CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE LIGHTS, BELTS ETC, THE PART MELTS AND IT GETS THE WIRES HOT FROM THE DASH WIRESE HARNESS THAT HAPPENED WHENT IR WAS DRIVING IN THE CITY.

I BOUGHT MY TOYOTA CAMRY IN 2007 BRAND NEW. RECENTLY I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND HEARD AIR LEAKING SOUND AND THE CAR CAN NOT BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY.. TODAY, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND SENT TO THE MECHANIC AND FOUND THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER IS DEFECTED NEED TO REPLACE IT AND COST AROUND $1600. HAVING SEARCH AT THE INTERNET AND REVEALED THAT COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE ARE EXISTED. I FEEL THAT TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THIS PART.

WHILE RUNNING (SITTING STILL OR MOVING) THE DASHBOARD GAUGES WILL GO CRAZY. THE SPEEDOMETER WILL GO TO 0, THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND THE RPM MAY BOUNCE AROUND. THE TEMP GAUGE MAY ALSO DROP TO C. OTHERWISE, THE CAR APPEARS FINE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME (ENGINE COLD OR WARM, DRIVING IN CITY OR HIGHWAY). THE LENGTH OF THE EPISODES VARY FROM A SECOND (OR LESS) TO 20+ MINUTES. FROM A LITTLE RESEARCH, I CAN TELL OTHER TOYOTA CAMRY (AROUND THE SAME YEAR) OWNERS HAVE ALSO ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE.

TWO WARNING SIGNALS APPEARED IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING THE CAR. 1. "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" 2. "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM" THE WARNING MESSAGE ARE ON CONSTANTLY. THE HYBRID SYSTEM DOES NOT ENGAGE AT ALL. THE BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT STOP THE CAR AS NORMAL. EXTRA PRESSURE IS REQUIRED TO SLOW THE VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED MY CAR USED ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO I CHECKED THE OIL SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE AND IT WAS NEARLY FULL. I RECENTLY HAD LOW OIL ENGINE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT COME ON. I CHECKED MY OIL AND HAD BARELY ANYTHING LEFT. MY CAR IS SOMEHOW GOING THROUGH ABOUT A QUART OF OIL EVERY THOUSAND MILES OR SO AND YET THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF A LEAK IN MY DRIVEWAY.

WHILE RUNNING (SITTING STILL OR MOVING) THE DASHBOARD GAUGES WILL GO CRAZY. THE SPEEDOMETER WILL GO TO 0, THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS WILL COME ON AND THE RPM MAY BOUNCE AROUND. THE TEMP GAUGE MAY ALSO DROP TO C. OTHERWISE, THE CAR APPEARS FINE. THIS CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME (ENGINE COLD OR WARM, DRIVING IN CITY OR HIGHWAY). THE LENGTH OF THE EPISODES VARY FROM A SECOND (OR LESS) TO 20+ MINUTES. FROM A LITTLE RESEARCH, I CAN TELL OTHER TOYOTA CAMRY (AROUND THE SAME YEAR) OWNERS HAVE ALSO ENCOUNTERED THIS ISSUE.

I DON'T HAVE RECEIVED MILE OF WARRANT COVERAGE FOR BRAKE ACTUATOR PROBLEM. THEY HAVE CAMPAIGNED ABOUT 177,000 CAR HAS PROBLEM ON 2014. MY CAR HAS BIG PROBLEM ON 2015. I WENT TO BODY SHOP AND RETAIL SHOP FOR BRAKE PROBLEM WITH STOP ON THE FREEWAY BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRED ON 2015. BUT THEY CANNOT FIX IT BUT THE CAR STOPS ON THE FREEWAY ON 2014,2015 BUT. I CONTINUED DRIVE THE CAR BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH MONEY FOR THE FIXED. I WAS FIXED AFTER THIRD TIME STOP ON THE WAY MAY 2016. TOYOTA CENTER CHARGED $1,700 FOR FIXED BRAKE PROBLEM.

I HAVE 2007 CAMRY WITH A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. TAKE IT TO DEALER N TELL THEM I COULDNT READ NO CODES BECAUSE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CAN HOU GUYS HOOK UP TO YOUR COMPUTER? SERVICE ADVISOR SAID OK WE'LL TAKE A LOOK. WHEN THEY'RE DONE, ADVISOR TOLD ME WE COULDNT GET NO CODES THERE'S NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, &CHARGED ME $159. 2 TELL ME WHAT I ORIGINALLY TOLD HIM. RIP OFF.

MY VEHICLE IS BURNING THROUGH ENGINE OIL FASTER THAN NORMAL, I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO TWO TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS, THE FIRST ONE DENIED FIXING MY VEHICLE DUE TO A FEMALE SUPERVISOR SAYING THAT THEY WONT FIX A SALVAGED CAR, SHE THEN ALERTED THE SURROUNDING DEALERSHIP'S TELLING THEM NOT TO FIX MY CAR. THE DEALERSHIP IS THE ONE IN SAN BERNARDINO CALIFORNIA, I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO REDLANDS CALIFORNIA TO SEE IF THAT DEALERSHIP COULD FIX MY CAR AND THEY SAID THAT IT SHOWED IN THEIR SYSTEM THAT MY CAR SHOULDN'T BE FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A MANUFACTURER'S SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN FOR THE WATER PUMP. DURING THE DISSEMBLING OF THE VEHICLE, THE TECHNICIAN NOTIFIED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A 2003 MOTOR AND THAT THE REPAIRS COULD NOT BE PERFORMED. THE VEHICLES WATER PUMP AND TENSIONERS WERE REPAIRED, HOWEVER DURING A TEST DRIVE AT THE DEALER THE TECHNICIAN BLEW A BLOCK IN THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED A NEW MOTOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 137,000.

CAR IS BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CHECK AND FILL THE OIL. ITS GETTING TO THE POINT THAT I AM HAVING TO CHECK AND FILL WITH OIL ONCE A WEEK. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS????

RECENTLY THE "ABS" AND "BRAKE" LIGHT CAME UP; NOW THESE LIGHT COME UP AND STAY ON FOR SOME TIME- SIMULTANEOUSLY; THE NEEDLES OF THE MPH, RPM, H/C, AND GAS GAUGE DROPS- THE PRM NEEDLES FLICKER UP AND DOWN. ALSO, THE TEMPERATURE MARKER DOESN'T WORK. THE MPH HITS DOWN TO '0' WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD AT NORMAL SPEED. BUT I DON'T KNOW MY SPEED. MY AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I ALSO NOTICE THAT IT DOESN'T TRACK THE "TRIP' MILES WHEN IT IS OUT OF CONTROL (ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T NOTICED IF IT FAILS TO TRACK THE MILEAGE ON THE ODOMETER. THEN THIS 'PROBLEM' STOPS AND THE CAR GOES BACK TO "NORMAL." A FEW MINUTES LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM CAN LAST FOR 5 MINUTES TO 20 MINUTES. I CALLED TOYOTA SERVICE'S 800 NUMBER AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB AND READING SIMILAR PROBLEMS BEING DOCUMENTED. HERE ARE JUST A FEW: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/TOYOTA/CAMRY/2007/ELECTRICAL/ELECTRICAL_SYSTEM.SHTML; HTTP://WWW.JUSTANSWER.COM/TOYOTA/5O8XA-TOYOTA-CAMRY-OPERATING-2007-CAMRY-OCCASIONALLY.HTML. ONE PERSON POSTED 'I CALLED THE TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICE IN 2012', YET WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA CLAIMED NO KNOWLEDGE. THE PERSON I SPOKE TO EVEN SAID THEY HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A CALL ABOUT THIS BEFORE. SOME OF THE POSTS ONLINE OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE STATE THE EXACT THING TOYOTA TOLD ME OVER THE PHONE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD. I TRIED TO DEFROST MY WINDOWS AND HAD AN ISSUE WITH THAT BECAUSE THE CAR WAS ON THE "ABS" "BRAKE" AND THE CAR WAS ACTING UP. MY CAR TESTED POSITIVE FOR OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM AND I AM WAITING TO GET THAT REPLACED. NOW THIS STARTED HAPPENING. THIS "NEW" PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED BY TOYOTA.

DECREASE IN BRAKING WHILE DRIVING. "BARKING" SOUND WHEN DEPRESSING BRAKE PEDAL (HARD). SOUND OCCURS IN PARK ALSO. NO WARNING LIGHTS DISPLAYED ON DASHBOARD AS OF YET. DELAY IN BRAKING WHEN SHIFTING OUT OF PARK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE ABS WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY EXTREME PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE MADE A SQUEAKING SOUND. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR WAS FAILING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 117,000.

WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE (STATIONARY OR MOVING) THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WILL INTERMITTENTLY PROVIDE FALSE/NO INFORMATION. SOME OF THE KNOWN SYMPTOMS INCLUDE THE FLASHING OF THE MALFUNCTION LIGHTS FOR THE ABS SYSTEM AND PARKING BRAKE, THE GAUGE NEEDLES SHOWING ZERO WHILE MOVING OR BOUNCING INTERMITTENTLY, AND THE A/C SYSTEM BEING INOPERATIVE.

THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. IN FEBRUARY 2016 TOYOTA TOOK POSSESSION OF MY VEHICLE FOR 3-4 WEEKS TO REPAIR OR REBUILD THE ENGINE TO COMPLY WITH THE RECALL REQUIREMENTS. I WAS PROVIDED A LOANER CAR DURING THAT PERIOD. DURING THE LESS THAN 2 MONTH PERIOD BETWEEN WHEN MY CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME ON 2/18/16 AND APRIL 10, 2016, I DID NOT TAKE MY CAR TO ANY REPAIR SHOP NOR DID I TOUCH THE ENGINE FOR ANY REASON. APPARENTLY TOYOTA DID NOT PROPERLY REPAIR THE VEHICLE WHEN THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE DONE. ON 4/10/16, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE, THE ENGINE SELF-DESTRUCTED, THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE, SMOKE ENGULFED THE ENGINE AND THEN IT CEASED RUNNING. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR WARRANTY REPAIR. ON 4/11/16, I CALLED TOYOTA FOR WARRANTY PAYMENT TO BE MADE TO THE DEALERSHIP SO THE ENGINE COULD BE REPAIRED OR REPLACED, I WAS TOLD THAT FIRST I HAD TO PAY FOR THE $5,800 WORK TO BE DONE AND THEN TOYOTA WOULD REIMBURSE ME ONCE I SHOWED THAT I HAD ALL MY SERVICE RECEIPTS THAT I HAD PROPERLY MAINTAINED MY VEHICLE. THIS WAS AN OUTRAGEOUS POSITION FOR TOYOTA TO TAKE, BECAUSE THE CAR WAS RELEASED TO ME AFTER TOYOTA THOROUGHLY WORKED ON IT FOR 3-4 WEEKS AND INSPECTED IT BEFORE RELEASING THE CAR TO ME ON 2/18/16. WHAT POSSIBLE MAINTENANCE WOULD I HAVE DONE IN UNDER TWO (2) MONTHS. I AM ALSO A LOW INCOME WAGE EARNER AND TO REQUIRE ME TO FUND $5,800 AND WAIT FOR REIMBURSEMENT WAS UNDULY BURDENSOME. COUPLE WITH THE FACT THAT THE TOYOTA OF PRINCETON INFORMED ME THAT I WOULD NOT BE GIVEN A COMPLIMENTARY LOANER CAR DURING THE REPAIR PERIOD. THE COST OF ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION AND ADVANCING $5,800 WAS IMPOSSIBLE AND A CLEVER WAY FOR TOYOTA TO AVOID THEIR FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY UNDER THE WARRANTY. INSTEAD, I SAW NO ALTERNATIVE BUT TO ACCEPT THE OFFER OF PRINCETON TOYOTA TO GIVE ME $2000 CREDIT TOWARD THE PRICE OF A USED CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED BUBBLES ON THE WHEELS OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT ALL WHEELS MAY FAIL AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 122,000. UPDATED 05/17/16*LJ

THERE IS A HAZARD WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE THE SUN GLARE WILL REFLECT ON THE DASHBOARD WHICH BECAME VERY STICKY AND MELTING EVERYDAY, THAT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT WHEN THE SUN IS UP.

AFTER SWERVING/BRAKING TO AVOID COLLISION IN INTERSECTION, VEHICLE DASH WARNING INDICATORS FOR BRAKE, ABS, AND CHECK VSC ALL ILLUMINATED. WAS ABLE TO CONTINUE DRIVING TO DESTINATION WHILE BRAKING CAUTIOUSLY AND TOOK CAR TO TOYOTA DEALER THE NEXT DAY. DEALER CONFIRMED THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THAT THE CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITHOUT SPENDING THE $2000+ (I WAS 700 MILES OVER THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT END DATE) TO FIX IT. AFTER REVIEWING THE MAINTENANCE RECORDS ON MY VEHICLE, THIS WILL BE THE 3RD BRAKE ACTUATOR IN THIS VEHICLE. HOW CAN A MANUFACTURER ACKNOWLEDGE AN ISSUE WITH A CRITICAL SYSTEM LIKE THIS, BUT GET AWAY WITHOUT A RECALL? AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE MEAN TIME BETWEEN FAILURE OF A CRITICAL SAFETY SYSTEM SUCH AS THIS NEEDS TO BE UNDERTAKEN AS THIS IS CRIMINAL.

MY CAMRY HAS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND OIL NEEDED TO BE CHANGED ONCE AGAIN IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON OIL BURNING UP BUT THEY CHECKED LAST TIME AND SAID IT'S OKAY. EVIDENTLY IT'S NOT. THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED BRAKE BOOSTER FOR THE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE WHICH COSTS FROM $750-$1,200 WHICH IS HARD TO AFFORD. THIS KIND OF ISSUE CAN COST YOUR LIFE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AND FIX IT SINCE SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE GEAR SHIFTER IN REVERSE WITHOUT THE KEYS BEING IN THE IGNITION. THE VEHICLE COASTED BACKWARDS AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 129,000.

TOYOTA FAILED TO REPLACE MELTING/STICKY DASHBOARD AFTER 6 MONTH FROM THE INITIAL INSPECTION. (1) THE MELTING/STICKYNESS OF THE DASHBOARD RELEASING TOXIC FUME LIKELY HAVE LONG TERM EFFECTS ON ONES HEALTH, AND (2) THE SHINY/REFLECTIVE SURFACE THE DASHBOARD CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVERS.

MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID HAS 200210 MILES AND HAD A BRAKE ACCUMULATOR SYSTEM FAILURE. RECEIVED WARNING OF CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. HEAVY FORCE WAS REQUIRED TO STOP THE CAR. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND THE ERROR CLEARED. AFTER DRIVING 30 MILES THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND TOYOTA CAMPAIGN EXPIRED 5 MONTHS AGO FOR UNLIMITED MILEAGE. IN DATE SERVICE WAS 2/26/2007

BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILURE. BRAKES MAKING CHIRPING NOISE WHEN YOU DEPRESS PEDDLE. CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHT COME ON. THIS IS THE SECOND BRAKE ACTUATOR FAILURE RESULTING IN REPLACEMENT OF UNIT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 50 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED IN ORDER TO AVOID A CRASH HOWEVER THE SAFETY SEAT BELT FAILED TO SUSTAIN THE CONTACT IN POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

THE FLEXPLATE SHREDDED FROM THE MOUNTING TO THE ENGINE AND TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH. THE PROBLEM WAS NOTICED WHILE IT WAS AT THE TOYOTA SERVICE GARAGE. IT ALL FELL APART AS THEY WERE DISMANTLING IT. THIS WOULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY CAUSING THE POWER TRAIN TO SEIZE UP AND DISCHARGE FLYING METAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 194,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AFTER REAR-ENDING A CAR AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH, MY SEAT BELT RELEASED AND AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. MY SEAT BELT HAD BEEN TIGHTLY LOCKED IN PLACE OTHERWISE IT WOULD HAVE PULLED BACK TO "NOT IN USE" POSITION. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I BELIEVE MY CAR IS UNSAFE IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SPEEDOMETER WENT DOWN TO ZERO AND THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A SOFTWARE ISSUE WAS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND THE SOFTWARE WOULD NEED TO BE UPDATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

WAS DRIVING, AND HYBRID SYSTEM CHECK LIGHT CAME ON...CONTINUED DRIVING SLOWLY THEN CAR LOST A BIT OF POWER..LIKE PARKING BREAK WAS ON AND VCS FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON. DROVE HOME AFTER WITH HYBRID SYSTEM CHECK STILL ON.

THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES. FIRST STICKY DASH BOARD .. WAS TOLD I'M BEING PUT ON A WAITING LIST FOR PART. IT'S BEEN MONTHS STILL NO WORD. 2ND OIL CONSUMPTION IS RIDICULOUS. . OIL RUNS OUT WAY BEFORE IT'S TIME FOR OIL CHANGE EVERY TIME .. NO OIL LEAKS ANYWHERE .. CAR JUST BURNS OIL SUPER FAST NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY CAR I'VE OWNED ..3RD THE CAR VIBRATES WHEN IN YOU HIT AROUND 40 MPH AT 1.5 RPM DOESNT DO IT AS MUCH WHEN CAR DOESNT GO IN OVERDRIVE IN 4TH GEAR .. WAS TOLD THIS MAY BE A COMPUTER PROGRAMING ISSUE .. 4TH MY DRIVER SIDE BACK SEAT MAT IS MELTED TO THE FLOOR. I WAS TOLD SOMETHING UNDER THE CAR MAY BE GETTING TO HOT. NEVER GOT ANY REAL ANSWERS TO MY CONCERNS .

I HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY CARS OIL CONSUMPTION AND WAS NEVER NOTIFIED FROM TOYOTA THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BACK IN MAY 2015 FOR ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION REPAIR. THE SHOP IS NOW TELLING ME I HAVE A BLOWN PISTON FROM WHAT THEY CAN HEAR. I HAVE RECORDS THAT I NEVER MISSED AN OIL CHANGE AND EVEN HAVE PROOF FROM FIRESTONE COMPLETE CARE WHEN MY CAR WAS CHECKED FOR OIL LEAKS. THERE WERE NONE FOUND. TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IT'S TOO LATE TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I ALSO SENT TOYOTA PROOF OF MY OIL CHANGES FROM FIRESTONE DATED 12/13/14, 4/11/15, 6/29/15, 8/22/15, 10/08/15, 11/14/15 AND 1/3/16. MY CAR WAS TOWED INTO COMMUNITY TOYOTA ON 3/23/16.

LEAVING MY DRIVEWAY I PARTIALLY RAN OVER A SMALL TREE STUMP, AND IT SEEMS FOR NO REASON SUDDEN ACCELERATION OCCURRED, I QUICKLY APPLIED MY FOOT TO THE BRAKE BUT EVEN WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL, THE CAR PROPELLED LIKE A RACE HORSE COMING OUT OF THE GATE. AND EVEN AFTER APPLYING THE BRAKES THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN UNTIL I STEERED INTO WOODS TO STOP THE CAR. I AM NOT SURE IF DRIVING OVER THE SMALL STUMP HAD ANY BEARING ON THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION, BUT EVEN THE APPLICATION OF THE BREAKS WOULD NOT EITHER STOP THE CAR FROM ACCELERATING OUT OF CONTROL OR STOP THE CAR FROM HITTING THE TREE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 32 MPH OVER A SHEET OF ICE, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL LIGHTLY AND THE VEHICLE SPUN TO THE RIGHT AND CRASHED INTO A TREE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUFFERED BRUISING AND MINOR CUTS ON THE RIGHT HAND THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114,000.

I HAD ABS, AND BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON. THE SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER AND A/C HAS STOPPED WORKING WITHOUT REASON. DEALER FOUND U0073 TROUBLE CODE AND I HAD THE REPLACE ABS ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY WHICH INCLUDES ABS PUMP AND ECU. FROM THE RESEARCH THAT I MADE ONLINE, I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT MANY 07-10 CAMRY USERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR ABS SYSTEM. A NEW ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY COSTS OVER 3000 DOLARES AND THEY ARE MANUFACTURED BY BOSCH. I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA IS HIDING THE PROBLEM BECAUSE A RECALL COST ON THIS PARTICULAR MATTER WILL BE A LOT HIGHER. AN EXAMPLE OF THE PROBLEM WAS SHOWN IN THE FOLLOWING YOUTUBE VIDEO: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=RDTGABJRFDS

WHILE MY CAR WAS IN MOTION, MY VSC SYSTEM CHECK LIGHT WAS ON AND ALMOST SIMULTANEOUSLY THE CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM LIGHT WAS ON ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE CAR DID NOT LET ME ACCELERATE ABOVE 30MPH.N AND I COULD FEEL THE FRICTION WHILE ACCELERATING. I HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE CHECK HYBRID AND VCS WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE JERKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER NOR DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 113,000.

THE PASSENGER SIDE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT WILL TURN OFF WITHIN ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF TURNING THE HEADLIGHTS ON. THE PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT WILL BE ON AFTER TURNING THE LIGHTS OFF AND ON AGAIN. THIS PASSENGER SIDE LIGHT WILL THEN TURN OFF AGAIN AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO 2 MINUTES. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STOPPED.

WHEN I CHANGE BREAK PADS AND ROTORS THE VSC SYSTEM LIGHT IS ON.. BREAKS NO ENGAGED.

LOW OIL DUE TO OVERVER-CONSUMPTION: MY CAR ENGINE OVERHEATED AND ALMOST BURNT BECAUSE OF OIL OVERCONSUMPTION AND I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR AND GET OIL CHANGE AND GOT A REPORT PROVING THE VERY LOW OIL LEVEL.

OIL CONSUMPTION: AFTER 1149 MI, I CHECKED MY OIL AND THERE WAS BARLEY ANY OIL IN THE CAR. THE CAR HAS 149,000 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER SAID THAT USING A QT. OF OIL EVERY 1000 MI. WAS NORMAL. THEY SAID IT PASSED THE RECALL WHICH WAS TESTED AT 1000 MI. THEY REFUSED TO FIXED THE PROBLEM.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION IT HESITATES TO SWITCH GEARS FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. AS YOU ACCELERATE. AT TIMES THERE IS A JERK AS IT IS DOING SO. THIS CAUSES ME TO EITHER SLOW DOWN OR SPEED UP UNTIL IT GOES INTO GEAR.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE AND THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE RPM GAUGE BOUNCE AROUND AND SPEEDOMETER STOPS WORKING AND STAYS ON ZERO AND I HAVE READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE PROBLEM AND TOYOTA SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS HAPPENING TO A LOT AND SEVERAL 2007 TOYOTA VEHICLES LIKE THE CAMRY.

MY WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN DEFECTIVE SINCE LAST YEAR I CONTACTED THE DEALER THEY HAVE BEEN GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND, THEY KEEP TELLING ME THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER. I HAVE KIDS WHEN IT S HOT IT'S SO STICKY IT REALLY DRIVING MY KIDS CRAZY AND MY KIDS ARE ALLERGY TO IT. I CONTACTED THE HEAD QUARTER THEY TOLD ME SINCE THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO WAIT THEY ARE NOT GOING TO HELP ME I HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. IT'S NOT MY FAULT THAT MY WINDSHIELD IS DEFECTIVE AND THE DEALER IS NOT HELPING ME PLEASE HELP ME SO THEY CAN FIX MY CAR THANKS. MY NAME IS [XXX], MY EMAIL ADDRESS IS [XXX] AND MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX] AND MY ADDRESS IS [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SUNROOF GLASS SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTER WHILE IN MOTION AND DRIVING UNDER OPEN AIR.

CAR IS MAKING A CHIRPING NOISE WHEN YOU ENGAGE THE BRAKE IN PARK. NOISE CAN ALSO BE HEARD WHEN YOU PUT HARDER PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES WHILST IN GEAR . BASED ON RESEARCH IT SOUNDS LIKE THE ACTUATOR MAY BE FAULTY. SO FAR I HAVE NOT HAD ANY LIGHTS ON THE DASH COME ON.

WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT ROAD ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS I LOST ALL CONTROL OF MY BRAKES AND MY "CHECK VSC LIGHT", BRAKE LIGHT AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON. I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP MY CAR LIKE NORMAL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. IT WAS VERY SCARY WHILE DRIVING.

THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND AC THE PANEL WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WILL GO OUT AND ACT LIKE THE CAR IS JUST IN START MODE. YOU CAN NOT TELL ANYTHING WHILE THIS HAPPENS. NOT IF YOUR CAR IS OVERHEATING NOT HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING. NOTHING YOUR INTRUMENT PANEL SHOULD TELL YOU WHILE YOUR DRIVING. THE AC STARTED ACTING UP AT THE SAME TIME. IT COMES IN AND OUT WITH COLD AIR LIKE THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN GOOGLED TO SEE HOW TO FIX THIS... I CAN ACROSSED MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. IT STARTED A WHILE BACK. I HAVE SPECIAL NEED CHILDREN SO MONEY IS TIGHT OR I WOULD HAVE FIXED IT BY NOW. THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING AND ONLY MOVING WHEN IT HAS TO BE USED. I USE A GPS FOR SPEED. I JUST LIVE THROUGH THE AC. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE AC PROBLEM IN ELETRIC LIKE THE PANEL. THE PICTURE ATTACHED IS WHAT IT SHOWS WHILE OUT 99% OF THE TIME.

OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WHICH WAS PURCHASED IN 2009. TOOK INTO MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH RECALL. ALSO INQUIRED ABOUT MY BROKEN DRIVER SIDE VISOR. WAS TOLD THAT VISOR WAS NOT A RECALL AND ONLY COVERED AS AN EXTENDED SERVICE FOR 7 YEARS FROM DATE OF FIRST USE; THEREFORE NOT COVERED. VISOR WILL FALL DOWN WHILE DRIVING, OBSTRUCTING VIEW AND WILL NOT STAY ATTACHED WITH CLIP. THIS PROBLEM DID NOT OCCUR UNTIL RECENTLY BUT TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE IT, AS IT IS OUTSIDE THE 7 YEARS FROM DATE OF FIRST USE. I CALLED TOYOTA AND ASKED WHY THE VISOR WAS NOT REPLACED PRIOR TO MY PURCHASE. THEY INDICATED THAT IF IT WAS NOT SHOWING SIGNS OF PROBLEMS, THEY DID NOT REPLACE THEM. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO HAVE A VISOR "FALL" DURING DRIVING AND OBSTRUCTING YOUR VISION.

ON FEBRUARY 24, 2016, CAR BRAKES ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID LOCKED UP WHEN WE TRIED TO STOP AND ABOUT 4 LIGHTS CAME UP ON THE DASHBOARD, ABS,VSC,WARNING LIGHT AND ANOTHER ONE. WE BARELY MANAGED TO GET OUT OF HARM'S WAY BUT AFTER THE GRINDING NOISE HAD LOST ALL EFFECTIVE POWER TO THE BRAKES. THE CAR ACTUALLY CAUGHT FIRE DUE TO THE INTENSE HEAT OF THE GRINDING OF THE PADS ON THE ROTORS BUT WAS SAFELY PUT OUT. AFTER REPLACING THE PADS, ROTOR AND CALLIPERS WE STILL WOUND UP TAKING THE CAR TO A DEALER BECAUSE THE BRAKE ACTUATOR OR SOMETHING RELATED WAS STILL NOT LETTING THE BRAKES WORK. THE DEALER HAS GIVEN US A LAME EXCUSE OF WHY THIS HAS HAPPENED AND IS BLAMING IT ON SOMETHING ELSE AND WANTS TO CHARGE US A LOT OF MONEY TO REPAIR IT. UPON RESEARCH, WE ARE FINDING OUT ABOUT THE ZE1 CAMPAIGN WHERE THEY HAD ACKNOWLEDGED THIS DEFECT. AND WERE REPAIRING ALL THE CARS THAT CAME IN WITH THE DEFECT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT IT. CONTACTING TOYOTA HAS NOT HELPED AT ALL. WE ASKED FOR AN EMAIL ADDRESS BUT WERE TOLD THAT THESE ARE HANDLED BY MAIL ONLY. WE ARE IN THE PROCESS OF SENDING THEM A LETTER ANYWAY. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED WITH A DELAYED RESPONSE. ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WARNING INDICATORS, INCLUDING THE VSC INDICATOR ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

BRAKES SKIP NOW AND THEN BUT EVENTUALLY CATCH. TODAY WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 35MPH IN TOWN DRIVING STRAIGHT THE "CHECK VCS BRAKING SYSTEM" LIGHTS CAME ON AS WELL AS ANTI SKID LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT AND I LOST ALL BRAKES WHEN I STEPPED ON MY BRAKES TO STOP. SKID OFF ROAD AND CAR EVENTUALLY STOPPED BUT BRAKES WERE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. I GOOGLED THE WARNING LIGHTS AND FOUND THAT IT WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I DID NOT RECEIVE A RECALL NOTICE IN THE MAIL IF THERE WAS IN FACT ONE. CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN AND THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT TO CONFIRM THAT IT IS INDEED A RECALL ISSUE.

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON DASHBOARD READERS, SPEEDOMETER, TEMPERATURE GAUGE, JUMP AND FLICKERS AND GOES TO ZERO DOESNT MATTER HOW FAST I AM GOING, TRANSMISSION GEAR LIGHT GOES OFF DOES IT ON TYPES OF ROADS AND CONDITIONS DO DOES IT STOPPING OR GOING

MY PROBLEM IS THAT I CANNOT BACK-UP USING THE GEAR SHIFTER AS IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE USED. THE MECHANIC REMOVED THE LITTLE PANEL IN THE FRONT OF THE GEAR HANDLE, ALLOWING ME TO PRESS IT MANUALLY.I WAS TOLD IT COULD NOT BE FIXED (BY HIM) UNLESS IT WAS HAPPENING THEN. WHICH IT WAS NOT DOING AT THE TIME I TOOK IT TO HIM. YOU SEE, IT HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES THE GEAR SHIFTER WILL KICK IN AFTER I PRESS THE BRAKE, AND SOMETIMES IT WILL NOT KICK IN AND THAT'S WHEN I HAVE TO PUSH THE SWITCH MANNUALLY. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE FIXED BECAUSE IT IS AN INTERMITTENT OCCURRENCE.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID WITH 152850 MILES. THIS HAPPENED YESTERDAY (2/24/2016). IT WAS PARKED AND WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE THIS MESSAGE IMMEDIATELY SHOWED UP ALONG WITH 4 LIGHTS TURNED ON. 1 - CHECK VSC SYSTEM 2 - RED "BRAKE" INDICATOR (BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT) 3 - YELLOW INDICATOR (BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT) 4 - MASTER WARNING LIGHT 5 - ABS INDICATOR LIGHT THE BRAKE OIL IS FULL. I FELT LIKE ITS TAKING LONGER TIME TO STOP. ALSO UNLIKE BEFORE SOMETIMES HAVE TO PRESS THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR.

THE WATER TEMPERATURE, RPM GAUGE AND SPEEDOMETER RANDOMLY FLUCTUATE, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON. IT OCCURRED WHEN VEHICLE MOVING OR STOP. THE MECHANICS TOLD ME THE ABS MODULE IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FAILED HOWEVER THE BRAKING IS STILL FUNCTIONAL. THE ABS FUNCTION MIGHT STOP WORKING.

WHEN BACK OUT FROM DRIVEWAY, I ALWAYS HEARD A CLINKING SOUND AND FELT LIKE STEERING COLUMN LOOSE COMPONENT.

THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS OF MY TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON, THE WHOLE DASHBOARD READERS; THE SPEEDOMETER, RPM, ENGINE TEMPERATURE AND OTHER GAUGES JUMP AND FLICKER, THE LIGHT MARKERS FOR TRANSMISSION GEAR AND PARKING GO OFF. THE AC UNIT ALSO DID NOT WORK. I WENT TO DEALER TO GET IT CHECKED OUT BUT THERE WERE NO CODES TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD TO COME BACK AGAIN WHEN IT HAPPENS FOR LONGER THAN A DAY. IT KEEPS HAPPENING AT VARIOUS TIMES OF THE DAY (MORNING AND EVENING), WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED OR MOVING, AND ON ALL TYPES OF ROADS AND DRIVING CONDITIONS (CITY STREETS, HIGHWAY, AT A STOP LIGHT, AT A STOP SIGN, WHEN I AM TURNING). I HAVE NOTICED THAT TOYOTA HAS ALREADY ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID. GIVEN THE SHEER NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR THE REGULAR CAMRY 2007, IT SEEMS RIDICULOUS THAT TOYOTA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS FOR THE 2007 CAMRY.

LETTER FROM SENATOR WARNER ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE TOYOTA WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS NOTIFIED OF A CONDITION CONCERNING THE DASHBOARD AND IT WOULD BE REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. HOWEVER, THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. *JB

STICKY, SHINY AND CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS SO SHINY THAT I CAN NOT SEE BECAUSE THE GLARE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

MY CAR HAS AN OVER OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. BEFORE THE CAR IS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE IT IS OUT OF OIL COMPLETELY AND DUE TO THIS PROBLEM MY CAR STARTING OVERHEATING AND IT CRACKED THE HEAD GASKET. TOYOTA HAS A RECALL FOR THE 4 CYLINDER MODELS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE BUT THE 6 CYLINDER MODELS ARE EXCLUDED. DESPITE THE FACT THAT I TOLD THEM EVERY TIME J WENT TO THEIR SERVICE CENTER. NOW I HAVE TO BUY A NEW ENGINE FOR THE VEHICLE THAT I JUST BOUGHT.

ENGINE CONSUMED 4 QTS OF OIL BEFORE REGULAR 3000MI OIL CHANGE, NOW ENGINE IS MAKING NOISE.

MY TWO SONS WERE INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT TO WHERE MY CAR ENDED UP BEING TOTALED AND WHAT IS DISTURBING TO ME IS THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT TIME OF IMPACT. THE BRUNT OF THE DAMAGE WAS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHICH IS WHERE MY 13 YEAR OLD WAS SITTING.

DRIVING HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH AND DASHBOARD LIT UP, TRIED TO BRAKE AND VERY LITTLE BRAKE, EVENTUALLY STOP WITH VERY LITTLE CONTROL ON BRAKE. DASHBOARD SAYS "CHECK VSC SYSTEM". RESEARCH SHOWS ITS COVERED HERE. HTTP://WWW-ODI.NHTSA.DOT.GOV/CARS/PROBLEMS/DEFECT/RESULTS.CFM?ACTION_NUMBER=PE14001&SEARCHTYPE=QUICKSEARCH&SUMMARY=TRUE MY CAR HAS 240K MILES AND WITHIN THE 10 YEAR STATUTE BUT IT SEEMS TOYOTA AND DEALER DON'T WANT TO SHOULDER BECAUSE ITS OVER THE 150K MILES LIMITIATION. I CALLED TOYOTA AND TOLD THEM I WASN'T INFORMED AND ONLY FOUND OUT ON THE DAY I ALMOST HAD AN ACCIDENT 1/28/16 THAT THERE IS A RECALL. TOYOTA SAID THEY DON'T CARE AS LONG AS THEY SHOW THAT THE NOTICE WAS MAILED OUT. TOYOTA SHOULD BE FORCED TO HAVE A NO LIMIT MILEAGE ELSE, THEY'RE NOT GOING TO MAKE ALL THE EFFORT TO HAVE PEOPLE KNOW THE RECALL.

THE IGNITION OF MY 07 TOYOTA CAMRY WAS CONTINUE RUNNING WITHOUT THE CAR KEYS. THE CAR IS NOT AUTOSTART. I MADE VIDEO BUT UNABLE TO UPLOAD HERE. I CAN EMAIL THE VIDEO IF YOU NEED FOR EVIDENCE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE REVERSING WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND AND SUDDENLY JERKED TO A HALT WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS RELEASED, THE VEHICLE WOULD INDEPENDENTLY BRAKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THE BRAKE ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000. ..UPDATED 07/20/16 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER FIXED THE VEHICLE, UNDER WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY AND EVENTUALLY REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED DURING EXTREME COLD OR HUMIDITY WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE CHECK VSC WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REQUIRED ADDITIONAL BRAKING DISTANCE TO STOP THE VEHICLE, WITH EXTREME PRESSURE BEING EXERTED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,000.

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH WHEN THE BREAK LIGHT LIT UP ON THE DASH. WITHIN A MINUTE AFTER THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH CHECK PARKING BREAK AND CHECK VSC SYTEM AND THE GENERAL HAZARD LIGHT ALL WERE ON. I TRIED TO BREAK AND PULL OVER AND WHEN I DID I REALIZE I COULD NOT STOP. THE ASSIST BREAKS HAD BEEN COMPLETELY DISABLED AND I HAD TO PUSH VERY VERY HARD TO SLOW DOWN. I HAD TO ALSO USE THE PARKING BREAK TO ASSIST ME . WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN THE BREAKS ARE BACK AS IF NOTHING WAS WRONG. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES EACH WITH A VERY FRIGHTENING WITHOUT WARNING EXPERIENCE. MY MECHANIC SAYS THERE ARE NO CODES SHOWING WHAT IS HAPPENING. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO KILL SOMEONE. ESPECIALLY A NEW DRIVER OR AN ELDERLY PERSON THAT SIMPLY WOULD NOT HAVE THE GREAT DEAL OF POWER NEEDED OR THE REFLEXES TO SLOW DOWN WHEN THE SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL!!

ON TWO OCCASIONS, WHILE TRAVELING BETWEEN 40-50 MPH, THE BRAKES STARTED APPLYING REPEATEDLY ON THEIR OWN AFTER I HAD PUSHED ON THE PEDAL TO SLOW THE CAR. THIS CONTINUED FOR SEVERAL MINUTES EVEN AFTER BRINGING THE CAR TO A STOP. THERE WAS AN INTERMITTENT HISSING SOUND FROM THE AREA OF THE PEDALS. THE PAVEMENT WAS DRY AND SMOOTH BOTH TIMES. THE INCIDENTS OCCURRED ABOUT 1 MONTH APART. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS ON A HIGHWAY WHILE MAKING A SLIGHT CURVE TO AN EXIT RAMP. THE SECOND TIME WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A CITY STREET IN MODERATE TO HEAVY TRAFFIC. AFTER PULLING OVER, THE CAR WOULD MOVE SLOWLY FORWARD AFTER I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE BRAKE IN A SLOW JERKING MOTION WHILE THE BRAKES APPLIED THEMSELVES AND CONTINUED WITH THE HISSING NOISE. AFTER SHUTTING IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTING THE CAR, THE PROBLEM STOPPED. MY MECHANIC WAS NOT ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG. SEEMS TO BE A BRAKING ISSUE WITH THESE CARS AND TOYOTA SHOULD STEP UP AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY BEFORE A TRAGEDY OCCURS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END CRASH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THERE WAS ONE INJURY THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 68,000.

TWICE IN THE PAST TWO DAYS, I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND MY ABS AND CHECK VSC LIGHTS CAME ON. THE FIRST TIME, NOTHING APPEARED TO HAPPEN TO THE VEHICLE OTHER THAN THE LIGHTS. TODAY HOWEVER, I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN THE LIGHTS CAME ON. LUCKILY, I WAS APPROACHING CONGESTED TRAFFIC AND I WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN NATURALLY. AS I CAME TO THE TRAFFIC AND WAS DRIVING AT ROUGHLY 15MPH, I TRIED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE AND IT WENT DIRECTLY TO THE FLOOR AND DID NOT APPLY ANY BRAKE PRESSURE OR STOP THE CAR IN ANY WAY. I PUMPED THE BRAKES WHILE VEERING ONTO THE SHOULDER. THE CAR DID NOT STOP AT ALL AND I WAS FORCED TO COAST TO A STOP ON THE SHOULDER OF A 5 LANE HIGHWAY, WHERE SPEEDS OFTEN REACH 70MPH OR HIGHER. I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, THE LIGHTS TURNED OFF AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. I CALLED LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO CHECK THE CAR. THEY ARE GOING TO CHARGE ME $110 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS ALL I KNOW AT THIS POINT. I ALSO INDEPENDENTLY RESEARCHED THE WARNING LIGHTS AND FOUND ARTICLES STATING THAT THIS IS HAPPENING FAIRLY FREQUENTLY AND THAT THE NHTSA IS INVESTIGATING. THAT ARTICLE ALSO STATED THAT THE REPAIR CAN COST UPWARDS OF $2,200. THE CAR IS ABSOLUTELY UNFIT FOR THE ROAD. I CAN'T DRIVE A VEHICLE WHERE THE BREAKS COULD STOP WORKING AT ANY MOMENT AND WITH VERY LITTLE WARNING. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ANY ISSUE WITH THE BREAKS THEMSELVES, WHEN WORKING PROPERLY. IT APPEARS TO BE PURELY A COMPUTER PROBLEM THAT CAUSES THE BREAKS TO NOT ENGAGE.

DRIVER AND/OR PASSENGER HEADLIGHT WILL UNEXPECTEDLY TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. HEADLIGHTS WILL BE OPERATING NORMALLY AND WITHOUT REASON, ONE OF THE HEADLIGHTS WILL GO OUT. THIS PRESENTS A DANGER TO ME IN MY VEHICLE AS WELL AS OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD. IF I TURN OFF THE HEADLIGHTS AND TURN THEM ON AGAIN, THE LIGHTS WILL GO BACK ON BUT YOU DON'T KNOW FOR HOW LONG BEFORE THEY GO OUT AGAIN. MINE IS A 2007 TOYOTA SOLARA WITH APPROXIMATELY 85,000 MILES. THIS HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I'VE SEEN MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE FROM OTHER SOLARA AND PRIUS OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD COME TO AN ABNORMAL STOP WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, BUT IT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,500.

DASH BOARD IS VERY STICKY AND REFLECTS ON TO THE WIND SHILEDDURING DAY TIME- AN EXTREME HAZARD BECASUE I CAN'T SEE THRU SOMETIMES. TOYOTA HAS A WARRANTY ENHNACEMENT ON IT, DEALER ORDERED A REPLACEMENT BACK ON 07/29/2015 AND TOTYOTA HAS NOT FULFILLED THE ORDER YET. WITH SUMMER COMING, IT'LL BE BRIGHT & SUNNY AND A HAZARD AGAIN. ANY WAY TO EXPEDITE THAT REPLACEMENT PART FROM TOTYOTA. PLEASE HELP.

VEHICLE HAVING PROBLEM WITH ABS MODULE. SAME AS MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS ON NHTSA WEBSITE. AT RANDOM TIMES, BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS COME ON AND SPEEDOMETER DROPS TO ZERO. MAY LAST FOR ONE OR SEVERAL MINUTES AND EVENTUALLY RETURNS TO NORMAL. ALTERNATES BETWEEN FUNCTIONING AND NOT BUT HAS BEEN MALFUNCTIONING MORE THAN IT WORKS. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS ABS MODULE. BRAKES SEEM TO BE FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY BUT NOT SURE IF WORKING IN ABS MODE. BASED ON COMPLAINTS ON WEBSITE, CAN'T BELIEVE NHTSA HAS NOT FORCED A RECALL.

"CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WHEN I TOOK MY CAR OUT THIS MORNING, I GOT A WARNING LIGHT SAYING "CHECK VSC SYSTEM". MY BRAKE LIGHT AND ABS LIGHTS ARE ALSO ON. THE CAR BRAKES WITH A JERK AND I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN HAPPENING QUITE OFTEN. COMPLAINTS TO THE TOYOTA DEALER DID NOT HELP. AS PER HTTP://WWW.CONSUMERAFFAIRS.COM/NEWS/FEDS-INVESTIGATE-BRAKING-PROBLEMS-IN-TOYOTA-CAMRY-HYBRID-012814.HTML A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM AND HAVE COMPLAINED TO NHTSA. PLEASE HELP WITH A RECALL AS IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR THIS WAY.

TOYOTA RECALL: I TOOK MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY TO THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR THE RECALL. THEY HAD A 3 PHASE TEST AND IT USED A QUART OF OIL AFTER 1000 MILES, BUT I HAD TO BRING IT IN A THIRD TIME, THEN THEY SAID I FAILED THE TEST AS I WENT OVER THE MILEAGE FOR THE 3RD VISIT. I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY LET ME FILE A COMPLAINT BUT ALSO SAID I FAILED TO MEET THE QUALIFICATIONS AS I WENT OVER THE MILEAGE EVEN THOUGH IT HAD ALREADY USED A QUART OF OIL THE AFTER 1000 MILES. I ASKED FOR THE SPECIFIC REQUIREMENTS AND THEY WERE VAGUE AND STATED THE DEALERSHIP MADE THE DETERMINATION AROUND TOYOTA'S GUIDELINES. I TOOK IT AGAIN FOR THE LAST AND FINAL OIL RECALL AND THEY THEN SAID I WENT OVER THE MILEAGE FOR THE OIL RECALL TEST THE SECOND TIME (1700 MILES) THAT IT WAS A BIT LOW AND THEY TOPPED IT OFF AS A CURTESY, BUT I WAS NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR THE RECALL. TODAY AFTER 3000 MILES FROM MY LAST OIL CHANGE AND THEIR TOPPING IT OFF THE OIL WAS DOWN 4 QUARTS OF OIL. I FEEL THAT THAT TOYOTA IS MAKING THIS DIFFICULT SO THAT A CONSUMER FAILS THE RECALL AND THEY DO NOT HAVE TO FIX THE PISTONS ON THE ENGINE.

WHILE DRIVING ON A LOCAL STREET I NOTICED THE RED BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AND THEN JUST A FEW SECONDS LATER MULTIPLE LIGHTS CAME ON, MASTER WARNING LIGHT, ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED BRAKE WARNING, ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM, SLIP INDICATOR, AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND I HAD NO BRAKING CAPABILITY. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET THE CAR PULLED OFF OF THE ROAD SO I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND THEN TURNED IT ON AGAIN AND THE SAME LIGHTS WERE STILL ON. I TURNED IT OFF AGAIN AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES I TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE LIGHTS WERE NOT ON AND EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL. BRAKING SYSTEM WAS WORKING AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS AND NEEDLESS TO SAY THIS CAR IS NO LONGER SAFE TO DRIVE. *JS

ALL THE DASHBOARD BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON, AND A COUPLE OF SECONDS LATER ALL THE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. THE BRAKES BECAME HARD TO PUSH AS IF THEY WERE FIGHTING ME. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES THE LIGHTS WENT OFF AND THE BRAKES FELT NORMAL AGAIN. THIS OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING TODAY. THE BIGGER WORRY IS THAT IT HAPPENED TEN DAYS AGO ALSO. ONCE ON A CITY STREET AND ONCE ON THE INTERSTATE. I TOOK THE CAR TO TWO DIFFERENT SHOPS (ONE WAS A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN MARIETTA, GEORGIA) AND THEY BOTH RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. BUT I HAVE AN UNSAFE CAR WITH BRAKE PROBLEMS!

BRAKES FAILED WHILE TRYING TO STOP AT A STOP SIGN. THE BRAKES FAILED WHILE TRYING TO STOP ON DRY PAVEMENT. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAME VERY HARD AND THE CAR CONTINUED THREW THE STOP SIGN AND STOPPED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAD BEEN ON FOR A DAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS BAD GAS. I DROVE THE CAR FOR ANOTHER DAY WITH HARD BRAKES AND THEN RETUNED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF SOME NEAR MISSES BECAUSE THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING. THE DEALER FOUND THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS BAD. A QUICK CHECK SHOWS THAT THIS VERY COMMON ON 2007 CAMRY. THESE FAULTY BOOSTERS ARE SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BY TOYOTA BEFORE SOME ONE DIES!

MY 07 CAMRY RUNS COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL BEFORE IT'S TIME FOR IT TO BE CHANGED. I HAVE HAD THE CAR CHECKED FOR OIL LEAKS AND HAS PASSED EACH TIME. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I HAVE FOUND THAT THE MORE MILES ON THE CAR THE FASTER IT RUNS THE OIL OUT AND WITH THAT BEING SAID I NOW HAVE ENGINE DAMAGE. NOT TO MENTION THIS CAR HAS BEEN THE ABSOLUTE WORST. I PUT MY VISORS DOWN ONE TIME AND HAD TO TAKE THEM OFF BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T GO BACK UP. THE POWER CONTROLS IN MY CAR DON'T WORK. I ALSO FOUND OUT TONIGHT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE GAS PEDAL IN THIS DEATH TRAP THAT HAPPENED BEFORE I OWNED IT THAT I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF BUT KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO BE WRONG WITH IT BECAUSE IT KEPT STICKING!! I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON DEALING WITH THIS AND FIND IT OUTRAGEOUS THAT IT HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. MY CHILDREN USED TO RIDE IN THAT CAR!! IT IS A TICKING TIME BOMB AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS!!!!!!!

I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE CHECK VSC WARNING CAME ON AS WELL AS THE INDICATOR WARNING LIGHT, THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT, THE ABS WARNING LIGHT AND THE VSC WARNING LIGHT. ALL THE LIGHTS REMAINED ON UNTIL I REACHED MY DESTINATION. THE BRAKE SYSTEM MADE A STRANGE "GRUNTING" NOISE WHEN THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED BUT THE BRAKES SEEMED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON WHEN THE CAR WAS RESTARTED AND LESS THAN HALFWAY ON THE RETURN TRIP, WENT OFF. THERE HAS BEEN NO NOTICEABLE LOSS OF BRAKING. ON THE 21ST OF THE MONTH THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND HAVE NOT GONE OFF. THE ABS PUMP ACTUATOR APPEARS TO BE CYCLING VERY QUICKLY.

MELTING DASHBOARD CAUSES GLARE AND REDUCES VISIBILITY DURING DAYTIME DRIVING.

THIS IS THE 3RD ACCIDENT I HAVE BEEN IN RELATED TO THE TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 BRAKING SYSTEM FAILING. IN EACH INSTANCE, I HAD BEEN GOING LESS THAN 35MPH IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD TO PRESS DOWN REALLY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT DOESN'T COME TO A COMPLETE STOP UNTIL 20-30 SECONDS LATE. THE BRAKE DOES NOT REDUCE THE CAR SPEED LIKE IT SHOULD BE TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT FROM HAPPENING. IN ADDITION TO THIS, I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THAT WHEN I BRAKE THERE IS VIBRATION AND THE CAR SHAKES WHEN TRYING TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. ON TOP ON THIS, THE BRAKE PEDAL FEELS AS IF IT IS GETTING STUCK AND I HAVE TO PRESS DOWN REALLY HARD BEFORE I CAN COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS VERY FRIGHTENING AND I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR.

MY DAUGHTER THAT DRIVES THE CAR TOLD ME THAT SHE FEELS THAT THE CAR WILL EXPLODE. FROM MY RESEARCH I FOUND OUT THE ABS MODULE IS THE CAUSE OF THIS MALFUNCTIONS.

FIRST OF ALL IT STARTED MAKING LOUD SQUEELING NOISE WHEN I WOULD REVERSE USE THE BREAKS ..... THEN THE OTHER DAY AS I WAS DRIVING LIKE NORMAL ALL DAY AND I CAME TO A MERGE LANE TO TURN ONTO THE MAIN STREET TURNING TO THE RIGHT I WAS BEHIND A COP SO HE WENT THEN I WENT AS SOON AS I STARTED MAKING THE TURN ALL THE LIGHTS TURNED ON THE BREAK WENT HARD AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS HARD TO MOVE SO I HAD TO SWEARVE AND PULL OVER TILL THE VEHICLE FINALLY CAME TO A STOP I PUT IT IN PARK THEN TURNED IT OFF AND ON AND THE WARNING LIGHTS TURNED OFF AND AFTER A FEW MINS DROVE LIKE NORMAL . THEN THIS HAPPEND AGAIN YESTERDAY TO MY SON HERE'S HIS STORY: WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK I WAS COMING TO A FOUR WAY STOP THEM ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH BOARD THE BREAKS GOT HARD AND THE STEERING WHEEL TOO AND I HAD TO SWERVE TO NOT HIT THE GREEN TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME THEN IT BARLEY MADE IT HOME. AS OF THIS MORNING I TRIED STARTING IT REVERSING IT AND IT WON'T MOVE ALL THE LIGHTS ARE STILL ON THE VCS CHECK SYSTEM IS ON AND IT WON'T TURN OFF OR MOVE . PLEASE HELP!

I AM CONCERNED WITH THE OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAD TWO TEST OUTCOME FAILED I HAVE STATED SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE IN DEC 2006 THAT CAR USED OIL. I THINK THAT I SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FOR THE NUMEROUS QUARTS OF OIL THAT HAVE BEEN WASTED DUE TO A FLAW IN THIS ENGINE TYPE. THE TIME TO REPAIR IS WAY TOO LONG. ON AVERAGE I HAVE TO ADD A QUART A WEEK THAT'S A LOT OF OIL SINCE 2007. THE PEOPLE AT TOYOTA NEED TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED.

ENGINE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET OIL LIGHT START FLICKERING AFTER TURNS AND APPLYING BREAK PEDAL. I PULLED MY VEHICLE OVER AND SHUT DOWN AN ENGINE. AFTER I CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL AND IT WAS HARDLY ON A STICK. I DO CHANGE MY OIL REGULARLY, EVERY 5000 MILES. TOYOTA'S OIL LIGHT STARTS FLICKERING WHEN I LOST ALMOST 3 QUARTERS, WHICH COULD LEAD TO ENGINE SHUT DOWN, GLAD I WASN'T ON A HIGHWAY AT THAT TIME AND HAD ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER AND TAKE MY CAR TO A MECHANIC TO ADD ENGINE OIL. AS A RESULT OF TOYOTA'S ENGINE ENGINEERING FLOW I LOST ABOUT 3 QUARTERS OF ENGINE OIL IN A LESS THAN 3000. AFTER THIS UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT TOOK PLACE I HAVE BEEN KEEPING MY EYE ON OIL LEVEL. LATER ON I TOOK A CAR TO AUTHORIZED TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. AFTER CHECKING A CAR THEY DIAGNOSED AN OIL LEAK, I FIXED IT, HOWEVER PROBLEM STILL EXIST. MY CAR STILL USES WAY TOO MUCH OIL, WHICH MAKE IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE SINCE I HAVE SLIGHT IDEA WHEN OIL COULD DISAPPEAR WHILE OPERATING A VEHICLE.

I WAS DRIVING WHEN THE DASHBOARD GAUGES WENT CRAZY AND THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING AND WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, MY BRAKES SUDDENLY DID NOT WORK. EVERY LIGHT ON THE DASH TURNED ON AND IT SAID "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" IT HAS NOW HAPPENED THREE TIMES AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND SAW THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE SO I FEEL IT'S A DEFECT AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL.

CHECK VSC SYSTEM COMES ON, THE BRAKE BECOMES VERY HARD AND LIGHTS SUCH AS ABS AND OTHERS COME UP ON THE DASHBOARD WHILE IN MOTION.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY, ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS I HAVE READ SEVERAL POSTS REGARDING THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND NOTICE THAT NO ONE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE CORRECTED BY TOYOTA FOR FREE, OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A VEHICLE MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO DEAL WITH BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I PURCHASED A TOYOTA VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE REPUTATION ON QUALITY & CUSTOMER SERVICE, BUT UNTIL NOW I'VE NOT SEEN EITHER OF THESE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT & MAKE IT RIGHT FOR ALL AFFECTED CONSUMERS. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO CLEAN DASHBOARD AT ALL. EVERYTHING STICKS TO IT AND IF YOU TOUCH IT WITH YOUR FINGER NAIL-STICKY CHUNKS COME OUT..... THE GLARE IS AWFUL AND SINCE BOTH OF MY VISORS HAVE BROKEN OFF I CANT USE THOSE TO HELP...

I HAD TO REPLACE TODAY MY BRAKE ACTUATOR AND BLEED BRAKES BECAUSE STARTED IN ONE WEEK AGO, EVERY TIME I STEPPED IN MY BRAKE MADE NOISE LIKE WHEN YOU HONK FOR SOMEBODY. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF TOYOTA HAD A RECALL ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I THINK THEY DID AND I PAID $1.800 FOR A PROBLEM I THINK THEY SHOULD PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM IN MY CAR

THE DASHBOARD OF THE CAMRY BECOMES TACKY AND VERY SHINY DUE TO DETERIATION FROM SUNLIGHT. THIS SHINY FINISH CAUSES DANGEROUS GLARE AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING. THE TACKINESS PREVENTS THE DASHBOARD FROM BEING CLEANED PROPERLY TO PREVENT REFLECTIONS AS WELL.

MY CAR WAS BURNING MORE THAN 5 QUARTS IN LESS THAN 3K MILES BUT AFTER LONG TIME FINALLY TOYOTA HAS FIXED THE ISSUE. BUT THIS WAS HAPPENING FOR ME FROM 45K MILES ON MY CAR AROUND 2009 UNTIL NOW. MEAN WHILE SINCE THE ENGINE WAS BURNING WHICH CAUSED MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER TO BLOW OFF. THEY SHOULD REPLACE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER TOO BECAUSE THIS IS CAUSED BY THE ENGINE OIL BURNING IN THE COMBUSTION CAMBER. FEW YEARS BACK THEY FIXED MY POWER WINDOW ON THE DRIVER SIDE BUT LAST 12- 18 MONTHS I AM EXPERIENCING AN ISSUE SOME TIMES THE WINDOW OPENS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BUT MOST OF THE TIME PASSENGER WOULD TRY TO OPEN BUT IT WONT OPEN. I BELIEVE ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHICH MAY HAVE HAPPENED AFTER THEY FIXED ON THE DRIVER SIDE. IF ANY ACCIDENT HAPPENS THEN THE PASSENGER WONT BE ABLE TO GET OUT WHICH IS VERY DANGEROUS ITS AN SAFETY ISSUE.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY, ESPECIALLY DURING THE SUMMER MONTHS. I'VE NOTICE THIS ISSUE SEVERAL YEARS AGO BUT DIDN'T PAY TO MUCH ATTENTION TO IT, OTHER THEN IT'S DIFFICULT TO CLEAN AND STICKY. I RECEIVED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT NOTIFICATION - ZE6 FROM TOYOTA MOTOR SALES REGARDING THIS ISSUE EARLIER THIS YEAR APRIL 2015. I'VE CALL THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR ORIGINALLY AND INQUIRE ABOUT THIS RECALL NOTICE & WAS TOLD THAT THE DASHBOARD WOULD BE ORDERED & ONCE IT CAME IN I WOULD BE CONTACTED, I NEVER HEARD BACK FROM THEM, SO I CALLED AGAIN RECENTLY AND EXPRESS MY SAFETY CONCERNS WHILE DRIVING ON A SUNNY DAY WITH GLARE COMING OFF THE DASHBOARD ONTO THE WINDSHIELD, THE GLARE IS VERY BLINDING IF NOT WEARING SUNGLASSES. I WAS ONCE AGAIN TOLD BY THE SERVICE REP AT THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP THAT THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNTIL THEY RECEIVE THE PARTS FROM THE MANUFACTURE & THAT AT THIS TIME THERE'S NO TIME FRAME FOR CORRECTING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE READ SEVERAL POSTS REGARDING THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND NOTICE THAT NO ONE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE CORRECTED BY TOYOTA FOR FREE, OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A VEHICLE MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO DEAL WITH BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I PURCHASED A TOYOTA VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE REPUTATION ON QUALITY & CUSTOMER SERVICE, BUT UNTIL NOW I'VE NOT SEEN EITHER OF THESE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT & MAKE IT RIGHT FOR ALL AFFECTED CONSUMERS.

THIS MORNING I WAS TAKING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE UNDER 30 MPH ON A NEIGHBORHOOD PAVED ROAD. AS I WAS APPROACHING THE 4 WAY STOP, MY DASH READ "CHECK VCS SYSTEM" PLUS ALL THESE LIGHT CAME ON MY DASHBOARD SUCH AS A BRAKE LIGHT, A CIRCLE WITH AN EXCLAMATION, A FEW OTHER LIGHTS THAT IM NOT SURE WHAT THEY ARE AND MY BRAKES WERE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STOP . I ENDED UP ROLLING THROUGH THE 4 WAY STOP AND WAS ABLE TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN A DITCH. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE BACK TO MY HOUSE GOING VERY SLOWLY AND WITH AN EXTREMELY LARGE AMOUNT OF SPACE TO STOP. I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL AUTO PARTS STORE TO READ THE CODES BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO READ THEM BECAUSE IT WAS NOT AN ENGINE CODE. ON MY WAY BACK TO THE HOUSE, ALL LIGHTS DISAPPEARED AND THE LOCAL TOYOTA SHOP SAID IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS. I AM EXTREMELY THANKFUL MY KIDS AND THE KIDS WALKING ACROSS THE CROSS WALK AT THE FOUR WAY STOP WERE NOT INJURED!

WHILE DRIVING UNDER 45 MPH ON A STRAIGHT SUBURBAN PAVED ROAD, MY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON THEN OFF THEN ON AGAIN DIRECTLY FOLLOWED BY ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COMING ON AND THE DISPLAY SHOWED "CHECK VCS SYSTEM". I WAS ENTERING A TURN LANE BEHIND ANOTHER VEHICLE AND QUICKLY REALIZED THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS NOT WORKING. I HAD NO BRAKES! I HAD ALREADY PUT THE CAR INTO THE ENGINE BRAKE MODE WHICH HELPED SLOW MY VEHICLE. I SLAMMED DOWN ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AS HARD AS I COULD AND SWERVED AWAY FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME TO AVOID HITTING THEM. AFTER SUCCESSFULLY PULLING OVER AND TO A STOP, I TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND WAITED FOR A FEW MINUTES. I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS AND CHECK VCS SYSTEM WAS STILL DISPLAYED FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS. I HEARD A SMALL CLICK AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS TURNED OFF AND THE CAR AND BRAKES WERE BACK TO NORMAL. I AM HONESTLY NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE MY OWN CAR FOR FEAR OF NOT KNOWING WHEN AND IF THAT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

MY CAR WILL BURN THROU +2 QUARTS OF OIL BEFORE I WOULD REACH 1200 MILES HAVING TO CHANGE MY OIL EVERY 1200 MILE OR ADDING 2+ QUARTS . IF I FORGET TO ADD OR CHANGE OIL ENGINE WILL TICK LOUD AND I WOULD LOSE ACCELERATION POWER. I ONCE FORGOT TO ADD OIL AND TRYING TO PULL OUT IN TO TRAFFIC NOT REALIZING THE LOST OF POWER I ALMOST GOT T BONE .

I WENT FROM 60MPH TO 15MPH WITH THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. FINALLY IT WILL START GAINING SPEED BUT MY RPM'S HIT 6-7 AND ALMOST MAX OUT. I WAS ON A HIGHWAY WITH A SEMI TRUCK RIGHT BEHIND ME AS THIS HAPPENED CAUSING HIM TO ALMOST HIT ME. IT WAS HOOKED UP TO A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND NO ERRORS OR PROBLEMS POPPED UP AT ALL. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS BLOWING WHITE POWDER (ALUMINUM OXIDE) WHEN THE AIR CONDITIONING/HEAT IS COMING OUT OF THE VENTS. ONLINE RESEARCH POINTS OUT TO THE ANTI-MOLD, EXPERIMENTAL CODING THAT TOYOTA PUT ON THE EVAPORATOR FANS, AND THIS IS WHAT IS CAUSING THE ISSUE. HOWEVER, TOYOTA DOES NOT WANT TO ADMIT THIS CODING WAS PUT ON THE VEHICLES IN 2007, AND THERE IS NO OFFICIAL RECALL ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AT THE SAME TIME, THE LONG-TERM EXPOSURE TO ALUMINUM OXIDE COULD LEAD TO LUNG DAMAGE. I WAS WONDERING WHAT CAN BE DONE IN A CASE LIKE THIS. PLEASE ADVISE. TOYOTA SAID THAT SINCE MY VEHICLE IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, ALL REPAIRS WOULD HAVE TO BE COVERED BY ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE AND THOUGHT ON THE ISSUE. MY CASE NUMBER WITH THE TOYOTA IS [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BRAKES SUDDENLY WERE NOT RESPONDING AND MY VEHICLE WAS SHAKING ALL FELT LIKE OUT OF CONTROL, ALL MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND I HAD TO HIT THE BRAKE PEDDLE HARD WHICH CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO SHAKE MORE AND FELT LIKE I HAD LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND COULD CRASH. I QUICKLY USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I FOUND OUT THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE BRAKE ACTUATOR THAT AFFECTS THE ABS SYSTEM, I HAD IT REPLACEMENT AND BOUGHT THE PART FROM ANOTHER CAMRY AND THOUGHT PROBLEM WOULD BE FIXED BUT IT HAS BEEN A LITTLE OVER THE YEAR AND I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN. I AM HESITANT TO BUY A NEW ACTUATOR PART IF THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEING FIXED AND WHY IS TOYOTA NOT RECALLING THIS PARTS FOR THE COSTUMER AS IS EVIDENT THAT IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND SHOULD NOT BE AN EXPENSE OF THE CONSUMER.

I STARTED MY CAR THIS MORNING AND A MESSAGE THAT SAID CHECK VSC SYSTEM APPEARED. THE BRAKE LIGHT AND MASTER WARNING LIGHTS ALSO APPEARED. I STARTED TO GO OUT THE DRIVE WAY AND COULD NOT PRESS THE BRAKES. IT WAS A LITTLE JUMPY AND THE BRAKES ARE HARD TO PRESS NOW.

I WAS TRYING TO BACK OUT OF AN EXTENDED PARKING AREA AT CHURCH, A GRASSY AREA WITH PEBBLES. SO, I WAS BACKING OUT VERY CAREFULLY SO AS TO NOT HIT THE ROW OF CARS PARKED BEHIND ME. SUDDENLY AS I WAS BACKING OUT, THE TOYOTA BEGAN TO MOVE BACKWARDS VERY FAST WITH A LOUD ROAR (RACECAR SOUND). WHILE IN A STATE OF TERROR I HAD TO WRESTLE THE TOYOTA AWAY FROM THE OTHER PARKED CARS AS MUCH AS I COULD AND KEEP TRYING TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL DOWN, BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULDN'T MOVE. THE TOYOTA STRUCK A RED CAR THAT DRAGGED THROUGH THE DRIVER'S SIDE, FROM THE FRONT OF THE TOYOTA TO THE END OF THE TOYOTA. STILL WRESTLING WITH THE WHEEL OF THE TOYOTA, I ENDED UP SLAMMING BACKWARDS INTO AN 8T FT. CHAIN LINK FENCE, ON THE CHURCH PROPERTY. MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE, AS THE TOYOTA SLAMS INTO THE FENCE, THE TOYOTA THEN STOPPED. BREAK AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL RETURNED TO WHAT FELT LIKE A NORMAL POSITION. I THEN PULLED THE TOYOTA UP AND AWAY FROM THE FENCE AND OUT A BIT AWAY FROM THE ROW OF CARS , SO THAT I COULD GET OUT OF THE TOYOTA. THEN I ASKED THE YOUNG MAN WHO WATCHED IT ALL, IF HE WOULD GO GET THE OWNER OF THE CAR I HAD DAMAGED.

WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY CAR LOST SOME BRAKING POWER AND SLIGHT PULSING COULD BE FELT WHEN PRESSING ON BRAKES. AT THE SAME TIME THE DASH LIGHTS ALL LIT UP; EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, WARNING LIGHTS, AND SCREEN SAID CHECK VSC SYSTEM. PRIOR TO SYSTEM FAILING EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT WOULD RANDOMLY TURN ON... VERY SCARY WHEN DRIVING 65 MPH. ALSO AT SLOWER SPEEDS, IT IS DIFFICULT TO APPLY ADEQUATE PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP NORMALLY.

I INITIALLY BEGAN NOTICING THAT WHEN THE AC DOES NOT BLOW COLD AIR WHEN TURNED ON THAT ALL OF THE GAUGES ON MY DASHBOARD STOP WORKING INCLUDING, SPEEDOMETER DROPPING TO 0 WHILE I AM DRIVING SO THAT I DO NOT KNOW AT WHAT SPEED I AM DRIVING, MY GAS GAUGE INEXPLICABLY DROPS TO EMPTY, LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD STOP WORKING AND MY DASHBOARD GOES DARK, RPM GAUGE FLICKERS WILDLY, BRAKE & ABS LIGHTS DO NOT GO OFF, AND OCCASIONALLY THE CAR STOPS BUT WITH HESITATION WHEN BRAKING, ALONG WITH INTERIOR FOGGING OF ALL WINDOWS WHEN IT RAINS (SOMETIMES DEFROSTER/FANS WORK TO DEFOG WINDOWS BUT SOMETIMES IT DOES NOT CAUSING MY VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY AND DANGEROUSLY REDUCED). DURING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH, I BELIEVED THAT THE ISSUES MIGHT BE RELATED TO AN EARLIER RECALL SO I CALLED THE TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICE AND THEY INDICATED THAT IT MAY BE RELATED BUT TO TAKE THE CAR TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO CONFIRM. I TOOK THE CAR TO TOYOTA OF HOLLYWOOD AND THE MANAGER STATED THAT IT WAS NOT RELATED TO THE RECALL AND THAT THE MAIN COMPUTER WAS MALFUNCTIONING AND CAUSING THE SUBCOMPUTERS TO ALSO MALFUNCTION AND ESTIMATED A REPAIR PRICE OF $2500. WHILE I WAS DOING MY ONLINE RESEARCH, IT APPEARS THAT MANY 2007 CAMRYS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUES I AM HAVING AND IN ADDITION, THE TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS HAD BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUES AS WELL. I DO NOT BELIEVE I SHOULD INCUR THE EXPENSE OF REPAIRS FOR ISSUES THAT SEEM TO BE RELATED TO A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT STRUTS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE VEHICLE WERE LEAKING OIL. THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE FRONT STRUTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

I PURCHASED MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE IN MAY 2006 (THE VIN PLATE SHOWS IT WAS MADE IN KENTUCKY). 2007 WAS A NEW BODY STYLE. THE CAMRY HAD A TACH WELD DEFECT IN THE RIGHT REAR FENDER WELL. ORIGINALLY THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS MY REAR GRAB HANDLE SHAKING. I KNEW IT WASN'T. HAVING NO OTHER RECOURSE, I CALLED TOYOTA CORPORATE. THEY FLEW IN 2 TECH SERVICE ENGINEERS FROM CA TO MY STATE, AND WITH THE DEALER, THEY DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS A FAULTY (OR NO) TACH WELD IN THE RR FENDER WELL CAUSING THE FRAME OF THE BODY TO STRIKE TOGETHER. THE CAR WAS SENT TO A WELDING SHOP AND THE DEFECT WAS REPAIRED. IT'S NOW SEPTEMBER 2015 AND ABOUT A MONTH AGO I BEGAN TO HEAR THE "TINK TINK" SOUND AGAIN- INDICATING THE SAME, OR ANOTHER, FAULTY TACH WELD. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA CORPORATE AGAIN (JUST NOW), AND AM WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. SINCE THIS IS ESSENTIALLY THE FRAME OF THE CAR, I'M VERY CONCERNED. (ADDITIONALLY I HAD EXTENSIVE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR BUT UNLESS I CONSTANTLY RETURNED IT TO THE DEALER/SHOP I COULDN'T MEET THE LEMON LAW THRESHOLD IN MY STATE. FOR EXAMPLE, WATER POURED OUT OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS LEAVES IN THE A PILLAR. I PARK MY CAR IN A GARAGE.)

I TOOK THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER (MORRISTOWN TOYOTA ON JUN 20,2015) TO CHECK WHY THE LIGHT ENGINE IS ON. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS ' TECH SCANNED FOR CODES AND FOUND PO137 OXYGEN SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW BANK 1 SENSOR 2' NOT SURE IF THIS IS NORMAL TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FOR A CAR LIKE CAMRY. BESIDES, IT HAS SEVERAL OTHER PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT. I HAVE WARRANTY AT THAT TIME, ALL THOSE WERE COVERED. I AM REALLY CONCERN THE QUALITY OF THIS MANUFACTURER. I AM BRINGING THIS ISSUE HERE TO SEE IF THIS IS A REAL ISSUE OR NOT AND OTHER SHOULD BE CONCERN ABOUT THIS.

THE SEAT BELT DID NOT SECURELY HOLD ME IN WHEN THE CAR BEHIND ME HIT ME, I WAS AT A DEAD STOP AND WAS REAR ENDED, THE AIR BAGS ALSO DID NOT DEPLOY, AND MY FACE HIT THE STEERING WHEEL. THE FORCE OF THE REAR ENDING PUSHED ME INTO THE SUV IN FRONT OF ME, THE CAR WAS TOTALED. I SUFFERED A CONCUSSION, WHIP LASH, WRIST AND ELBOW INJURY AND LOWER BACK WAS HURT AFTER THE IMPACT. I WAS WEARING MY SEAT BELT THANKFULLY OTHERWISE I COULD HAVE HIT THE WIND SHIELD.

WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STANDING START AFTER A HARD BRAKE MY CAR LURCHES AS IT SPEEDS UP.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL, IT BURNS A LOT OF OIL OR ENGINE MAY EXHIBIT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION) AND THERE IS NO POWER AT THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER PLUG ON BOTH OF THEM. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THAT THE FUSE FOR IT MUST BE BLOWN. I CHECKED THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD, BUT THERE IS NOTHING BROKEN.

I BOUGHT MY CAR NEW IN PALM DESERT CALIFORNIA IN 2007. IN NOVEMBER 2013, I MOVED TO PINELLAS PARK FLORIDA AND MY DASHBOARD BECAME VERY STICKY. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE IN THE LAST YEAR. I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE ACTUAL DASHBOARD. THE DASH BOARD IS MELTING. I WANT TO HAVE IT REPLACED. MY CAR HAS UNDER 45,000 MILES ON IT. IT IS IN BEAUTIFUL CONDITION. HOW DO I GO ABOUT MAKING TOYOTA RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DASHBOARD?

REAR WINDOW SHATTERED FOR NO REASON. CAN NOT FIND OR SEE ANY PLACE ON THE WINDOW WHICH MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIT WITH A STONE BEEBEE OR PAINT BALL. NO OBVIOUS POINT OF FAILURE.

THE PRIMARY SAFETY CONCERNS REGARDING MY COMPLAINT ARE A MALFUNCTIONING SPEEDOMETER AND A MALFUNCTIONING ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM; HOWEVER, THERE ARE OTHERS, WHICH I WILL DESCRIBE. WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT COMPLETELY CRAZY. SPECIFICALLY, THE SPEEDOMETER WENT TO ZERO (AS I WAS DRIVING 40MPH) THE TACHOMETER STARTED BOUNCING UP AND DOWN BETWEEN 0 AND 2 OR 3, THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON. THEN, EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO NORMAL BEFORE I COULD PULL OVER. I SOON REALIZED ADDITIONAL PROBLEMS LIKE THE TEMP GAUGE GOING LIMP AND THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWING HOT AIR ALONG WITH OTHER THINGS. ALL OF THIS HAPPENED ALL TOGETHER BUT ON AND OFF AT RANDOM INTERVALS. I DID SOME RESEARCH, WHICH LED ME TO THE ABS ISSUE. ACCORDING TO OTHERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM THE REPAIR IS $2K-$3K AND MANY HAD STORIES OF DEALERS MAKING VARIOUS COSTLY REPAIRS THAT DIDN'T FIX THE PROBLEM. I WORK FOR MINIMUM WAGE, THIS IS MY ONLY CAR, AND IT IS 110 DEGREES IN MY TOWN. DRIVING WITHOUT AIR CONDITIONING HERE IS A SAFETY HAZARD. ONE PERSON SUGGESTED UNPLUGGING THE FAULTY ABS MODULE TO REGAIN AIR CONDITIONING. WHEN I DID THIS THE AIR CONDITIONING DID IN FACT START WORKING ALONG WITH THE TACHOMETER AND TEMP GAUGE. THE SPEEDOMETER, ODOMETER, AND SEAT BELT ALARM STILL DO NOT WORK. FURTHERMORE, THIS IS NO LONGER INTERMITTENT BUT CONSTANT AND THE BRAKE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALL REMAIN ON. AN ABS MALFUNCTION COULD BE DISASTROUS IN WET WEATHER. THE LACK OF A SPEEDOMETER IS A SAFETY PROBLEM ON CITY ROADS FOR OBVIOUS REASONS AND NOT TO FORGET THE SEAT BELT ALARM OR THE ODOMETER, WHICH NO LONGER LOGS THE MILEAGE. MY 2007 CAMRY HAD LOW MILES FOR ITS AGE (<70K) WHEN THESE PROBLEMS FIRST OCCURRED; THE CAR HAS BEEN GARAGED AND WELL MAINTAINED. I HAVE READ MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS FROM THOSE WITH THE VERY SAME PROBLEMS AND IT SEEMS LIKE A FAULTY PRODUCT IS TO BLAME.

ON 3/4/15 I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AT CONRAD'S. ON 3/11/15 I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO TOYOTA FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. AT THIS TIME THEY ASKED WHEN MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS AND I STATED 3/4/15. THEY SAID THEY TYPICALLY LIKE TO PERFORM THE OIL CHANGE BEFORE THE TEST BUT THAT OIL CHANGE WAS RECENT ENOUGH TO USE. WHEN THEY CHECKED MY OIL THEY SAID MY CAR ARRIVED WITH NO OIL READING ON THE DIPSTICK AND THAT IT WAS MORE THAN ONE QUART LOW ON OIL. I EXPLAINED HOW COULD THAT BE I HAVE NO OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY OR ANYWHERE. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THEY WOULD NEED TO DO AN OIL CHANGE OR THEY COULDN'T DO THE TEST. I CALLED CONRAD'S THEY STATED THAT IS NOT TRUE AND IT'S THERE WORD AGAINST TOYOTA. I HAD TOYOTA PERFORM THE OIL CHANGE AND THEY ALSO SEALED THE ENGINE OFF FOR THE TEST. ON 4/22/15 I RETURNED AS I HAD REACHED 1200 MILES SINCE THE START OF THE TEST. AT THAT POINT THEY STATED MY CAR PASSED AND THE OIL CONSUMPTION WAS GOOD. IN JUNE I WAS HEADED OUT OF TOWN AND THE OIL LIGHT FLASHED ON AS I EXITED THE HIGHWAY. AT THAT POINT WE ADDED TWO QUARTS OF OIL. NOW IT IS 8-5-15 AND MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND THE ENGINE STARTED KNOCKING. WE ADDED TWO QUARTS OF OIL BUT IT'S TOO LATE. THE NOISE COMING FROM INSIDE THE ENGINE DID NOT STOP. CALLED TOYOTA TODAY AND TALKED TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND HE SAID I COULD BRING IT IN TO BE LOOKED AT. I WILL HAVE TO TOW IT UP THERE AS I'M NOT SURE IF IT'S DRIVABLE. NEXT OIL CHANGE WAS 9-7-15 OR 92481 MILES. CURRENT MILAGE 94014. IT APPEARS THAT THE CAR IS BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL EVEN THOUGH TOYOTA CLAIMS IT PASSED THE TEST.

IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING, BECAUSE OF IT THE DASHBOARD IS COVERED WITH STICKY SHINE SUBSTANCE. THE SUBSTANCE GIVES OF A STRONG GLARE WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THE DASHBOARD IS BECOMING BRITTLE.

TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 THE PROBLEM IS THE DASHBOARD WHICH IS STICKY AND I DON'T LIKE . PLEASE IT NEEDS TO BE FIXED. THANK YOU ! *TR

WHEN DRIVING CAME UP THE ABS, BRAKE AND ENGINE LIGHTS. WHEN I CHECK WITH A TOYOTA DEALER, THEY INFORMED THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE ACTUATOR ASSY BRAKE (COST OF $2,251.44 INSTALLED). LOOKING FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE DANGER OF THE SITUATION FOUND THAT THE CAMRY HYBRID 2007 HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM AND TOYOTA AGREED TO EXTEND A 10 YEAR GUARANTEE OR 150K MILES UNTIL 2017. THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS NOT VIABLE FOR ME NOW, AND CANNOT USE THE CAR, GIVEN THE SAFETY ISSUES INVOLVED.

MY CAR STARTED USING OIL AT 115,000-123,000 MILES. I TOOK IT IN 2-3 MONTHS AGO AND TOYOTA PERFORMED AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. MY CAR USED 1.6 QUARTS OF OIL DURING THAT TIME, IT DID NOT HAVE ANY EXTERNAL LEAKS WHEN THEY PERFORMED THIS TEST. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL AND THIS MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION IS NORMAL. USING THE MUCH OIL IS NOT NORMAL AND IT WAS NOT USING OIL BEFORE THE 115,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD SINCE IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL THAT IF I WANTED THE VALVE SEALS REPAIRED IT WOULD BE UNDER MY EXPENSE. THIS IS NOT A NEW COMPLAINT ABOUT THE 2007 CAMRY AND THE INTERNET HAS NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS HAVING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND SOME WERE WORSE THAN MINE. TOYOTA SHOULD OWN UP TO THIS DEFECT AND FIX IT.

LOSING ENGINE OIL AFTER 1000 MILES . HAVE TO BE A ENGINE FAULT .

I HAVE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED A SEVERE OIL LOSS IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH 97000 MILES. I HAVE ALWAYS COMPLETED TIMELY SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES AND NEVER HAVE HAD AN ISSUE UNTIL TWO WEEKS AGO. THE FIRESTONE DEALER WHERE I HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED DETERMINED I HAD A SEVERE OIL LOSS AND CAN'T LOCATE WHERE MY OIL LEAK IS ORIGINATING FROM. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED TOYOTA HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THE LOCAL TOYOTA SERVICE DEALER HAS NOT RETURNED MY CALLS. IN ADDITION THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED IN SPRING 2014 FOR THIS ISSUE WITH NUMEROUS TOYOTA MODELS.

DASHBOARD RECAL AS THE TITLE APTLY SUGGESTS, MY CAMRY'S DASHBOARD HAS MELTED DUE TO THE EXTREME HEAT. MY WINDSHIELD HAS NO TINT AND I SOMETIMES FORGET TO PUT UP THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER WHEN I PARK. THE DASHBOARD NOW FEELS VERY STICKY AND WHEN I LEAVE THE CAR UNDER THE SUN FOR A LONG STRETCH, I CAN ACTUALLY RUB OFF SOME OF THE DASHBOARD'S RUBBER COATING SURFACE IF I TOUCH IT. IT ALSO HAS SEVERAL SCRATCHES DUE TO ACCIDENTAL HITS FROM FINGERNAILS AND SUCH, AND A LOT OF SCRATCHES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER (YES, THE DASHBOARD IS NOW THAT SOFT). I'M AFRAID TO APPLY ANYTHING ON IT AS THIS MIGHT JUST MAKE ITS CONDITION WORSE. MY LAST OPTION IS TO USE A DASHBOARD COVER TO HIDE THE SCRATCHES AND PREVENT THE DASHBOARD FROM GETTING DAMAGED FURTHER. MY CONCERNS WITH THIS OPTION ARE: WHERE DO I BUY A GOOD/DECENT-LOOKING DASHBOARD COVER FOR MY CAR? (MY DASHBOARD IS COLOR BLACK). I'M BASED IN FORT BUCHANAN, GUAYNABO AND WOULD THIS GET IN THE WAY OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG? ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ASIDE FROM MY IDEA ABOVE, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO EXPRESS THEM. HELP DESPERATELY NEEDED. THANKS [XXX] [XXX] TODAY I HAVE ATTEMPTED IN CONTACTING YOU ON THE NUMBER YOU PROVIDED WITH A NEGATIVE RESULT. THE NUMBER RINGS AND IMMEDIATELY GOES INTO A OCCUPIED MODE.

ENGINE COILS KEEP GOING BAD HAD IT REPLACED AT THE TOYOTA DEALER AND CONTINUES TO FAIL. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN AS I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATION IT WOULD ONLY REACH 30 MPH, AND MY CAR FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO SHUT OFF. I ALMOST CRASHED DUE TO THAT INCIDENT NOT TO MENTION IT CONTINUES HAPPEN. I CAN NOT AFFORD THAT NOR ANY HARM TO MY CHILDREN. THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT IS LOCKED, AND UNABLE TO USE. I HAD MY POWER WINDOW ALSO FAILED TO WORK ON SOME OCCASIONS I HAVE TO MANUALLY PUSH IT UP. I SO LOVE MY TOYOTA BUT THERE ARE ALSO 8 OTHER RECALL TO WHICH I CAN ALSO RELATE TO.

ABS MODULE FAILURE DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT. INTERNAL SHORTING IN MODULE CAUSE CARS COMPUTER CAN SYSTEM TO GO DOWN. ABS BRAKING STOPS WORKING, DASHBOARD INSTRUMENTS LOSE ALL SIGNALS AND GO TO ZERO. SPEED/RPM/TEMP/BRAKING LIGHTS COME ON ABS. TOTAL DASHBOARD CONFUSION. CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM STOPS WORKING.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON LEVEL GROUND WITH THE FOOT LIGHTLY ON THE ACCELERATOR, A WARNING BELL AND VARIOUS WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF (INCLUDING ABS AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM). WHEN I PUT ON THE BRAKES I HAD TO PUSH MUCH HARDER THAN USUAL IN ORDER TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THESE CONDITIONS CONTINUED FOR THREE MILES, AT WHICH POINT THE WARNING SIGNALS DISCONTINUED AND THE BRAKING RETURNED TO NORMAL. BOTH AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP AND THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER DID NOT FIND ERROR CODES OR IDENTIFY A CAUSE FOR WHAT I EXPERIENCED. THE DEALER INSTALLED A NEW BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR AS PART OF A LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN. IT WOULD NOT, HOWEVER, INSTALL A NEW BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY OR BRAKE STROKE SENSOR AS PART OF THE ZE1 WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT SINCE IT DID NOT FIND ERROR CODES. TOYOTA'S NATIONAL CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER WOULD ALSO NOT AUTHORIZE THE REPLACEMENT OF THESE PARTS DUE TO A LACK OF ERROR CODES. SIX MONTHS AND 5000 MILES LATER THE PROBLEM HAS NOT HAPPENED AGAIN. UPDATED 09/06/16*LJ UPDATED 11/27/2017*CN

THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME STICKY AND GLOSSY, WHICH PUTS A GLARE ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE ON A SUNNY DAY. PART OF DASHBOARD CAME OFF WHEN A BUG GOT STUCK TO THE DASHBOARD AND WAS REMOVED WHILE CLEANING VEHICLE. SAW MANY REPORTS OF THIS AND TALK OF A RECALL, BUT NO RECALLS SHOW UP WHEN I ENTER MY INFORMATION ON THE CAR.

[XXX] MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE FOUR DOOR AUTOMATIC SEDAN HAS INTERMITTENT ERRATIC PROBLEMS WITH THE INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL: THE ABS AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON AND THE TACHOMETER, THERMOMETER AND OTHER GAUGES BOUNCE UP AND DOWN THE EVENTS LAST FOR A FEW SECONDS TO TEN MINUTES, EPISODES OCCUR SPORADICALLY AND THE CAR CONTINUES TO DRIVE NORMALLY DURING THE EVENTS. I CALLED TOYOTA (800) 331-4331 AND ASKED FOR A WARRANTY EXTENSION TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM, DENIED BY TOYOTA. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER TO IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM. ON JULY 1, 2015, CENTRAL FLORIDA TOYOTA IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA TRIED TO CHARGE ME $59.00, I REFUSED TO PAY AND THEY EVENTUALLY PROCEEDED TO DETERMINE THE PROBLEM WITHOUT CHARGE. THE REPAIR ESTIMATE GIVEN TO ME SAYS, "$2,217.05 FOR ABS ACTUATOR ASSY., R&R.? THE MECHANIC SAID THIS IS SERIOUS; THE BRAKES CAN LOCK UP WHILE I AM DRIVING. THERE ARE NUMEROUS IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET BUT TOYOTA CORPORATE SAID THIS PROBLEM IS NOT SUBJECT TO A RECALL OR A REPORTED PROBLEM. (JUST GOOGLE, "2007 TOYOTA CAMRY ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ON". CONSUMER COMPLAINANTS ALLEGE THAT THE BOSCH ABS ECU HAS A FLAW IN CIRCUIT BOARD DESIGN.) THIS IS VERY EXPENSIVE PROBLEM AND SO COMMON AS TO INDICATE THAT IT IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED FREE BY TOYOTA. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR FELL DOWN AND HAD TO BE REMOVED BECAUSE IT WAS OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW. I WAS NOT DRIVING WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND NO ONE WAS IN MY VEHICLE.

MY CAR HAS BEEN BURNING UP OIL SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED IT IN 2006. I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND HAVE BEEN RECENTLY RESEARCHING THIS EXCESSIVE OIL PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD NO LETTER FROM TOYOTA ABOUT IT, BUT I SEE THAT THE TOYOTA DEALERS HAVE GOTTEN A BULLETIN ABOUT THIS. WHEN I ACTUALLY NOTICED THE PROBLEM IT WAS BECAUSE MY CAR WAS MAKING STRANGE NOISES AND I DECIDED TO CHECK MY FLUID LEVELS. MY OIL LIGHT NEVER COMES ON TO MAKE ME AWARE THAT MY CAR IS LOW ON OIL. THEN I CHECK THE DIPSTICK TO SEE THAT IT IS DRY!!! MY CAR NOW HAS 154,000 MILES ON IT AND THE PROBLEM IS GETTING EVEN WORSE. I HAVE HAD TO ADD A QUART OF OIL EVER 400 MILES. THIS IS NOT NEW TO ME SINCE I BUY OIL CONSTANTLY AND CHECK MY DIPSTICK EVERY OTHER DAY. I JUST RECENTLY CALLED A TOYOTA DEALER TO GET MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEED A COPY OF ALL MY RECEIPTS FROM EVERY OIL CHANGE? I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE REASONING BEHIND THAT. ALSO I HAVE MADE DIFFERENT DEALERS AWARE OF MY PROBLEM AND I HAVE EVEN SENT AN EMAIL TO THE TOYOTA CORP. NOW THAT THERE IS A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM YOU HAVE TO BE IN THE WARRANTY PERIOD?!? I HAVE HAD TO ALSO REPLACE MY CAT AND 4 MONTHS LATER MY ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND IT IS READING THE SAME CAT CODE WHEN I HAD IT CHECKED. I AM WONDERING IF THE EXCESSIVE OIL BURNING IS ACTUALLY CLOGGING MY CATS.

I AM CONTACTING YOU TO REPORT THE ISSUE I AM HAVING WITH MY TOYOTA CAMRY. I HAD TO SPEND ~$2,500 TO REPLACE ALL FOUR STRUTS WITH ONLY 36,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A WELL MAINTAINED CAR (I FOLLOW THE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE REGULARLY) AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. THIS ISSUE CAN MAKE DRIVING HAZARDOUS SINCE IT WILL IMPACT BREAKS AND TRACTION. I HAD THE MAINTENANCE DONE IN NOV 2014 AT MY REGULAR DEALERSHIP IN GREEN BROOK, NJ AND ALSO GOT THE CAR INSPECTED FOR NY REGISTRATION RENEWAL IN MARCH 2015. BOTH ASSESSMENTS REPORTED THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK WITH THE CAR. HOWEVER, DURING MY VISIT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON JULY 3RD 2015, I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED TO REPLACE ALL FOURS STRUTS, A TOTAL COST OF ~$2500. I HAVE DRIVEN ONLY ~ 2,000 MILES BETWEEN MY TWO VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS COMPLETELY STOCKED TO HEAR THIS. WHEN I RESEARCHED ONLINE, I SAW SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT STRUT ISSUE AT LOW MILEAGE WITH 2007 CAMRY. AND IT IS NOT A NORMAL SITUATION FOR STRUTS TO LEAK AT SUCH A LOW MILEAGE. BEING A RESPONSIBLE DRIVER, I HAVE GOTTEN ALL THE REPAIRS DONE. HOWEVER, THIS APPEARS TO AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND NOT JUST MY CAR. AND POTENTIALLY DEFECTIVE MODEL/PART. I AM HOPING THAT YOU WILL LOOK INTO THIS AND HELP IDENTIFY WHETHER TOYOTA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. NOT EVERY PERSON WITH THIS ISSUE WILL BE WILLING TO SPEND SUCH A HEFTY AMOUNT TO GET APPROPRIATE REPAIRS DONE IMMEDIATELY. AND MANY MAY NOT EVEN REALIZE THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN NOT JUST FOR THE OWNERS BUT ALSO OTHERS.

SUDDENLY NO POWER BRAKES. VERY LOW BRAKE FLUID. RESERVOIR APPEARED EMPTY. POWER BRAKE BOOSTER HAD FAILED. REPLACEMENT PARTS HARD TO FIND AND EXPENSIVE.

CAR HAS FOR SOME TIMES BEEN MAKING CLUNKING, KNOCKING NOISE FROM STEERING . CAR WAS INSPECTED BY MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE STEERING INTERMEDIATE SHAFT MUST BE REPLACED, CALLED TOYOTA & WAS TOLD NO COVERAGE TO COVER THE REPAIR.

DRIVING AT NORMAL SPEED MY HEADLIGHTS WOULD GO OUT BY THEMSELVES. TO GET THEM ON AGAIN I WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE SWITCH ON AND OFF. I WAS STOPPED TWIC BY STATE TROOPER AND GIVEN A WARNING.

USES EXCESSIVE OIL - OIL IS LOW BEFORE IT IS TIME FOR SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE. WHEN MOTOR IS PUT IN REVERSE, THE MOTOR VIBRATES ( EVEN THE FRONT SEATS). IT VIBRATES AND MAKES NOISES WHEN DRIVING OR JUST IDLE.

I WAS DOING ABOUT 55 ON THE BELTWAY ON 6/23/15. I WENT TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR AS THE TRAFFIC WAS BEGINNING TO BACK UP. THE BRAKES FAILED AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER ONTO THE SHOULDER AND LET IT COAST UNTIL FINALLY THE BRAKES STARTED TO WORK AGAIN.

THE WATER TEMPERATURE, RPM GUAGE AND SPEEDOMETER RANDOMLY FLUCTUATE, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON. A/C WILL RANDOMLY STOP WORKING.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE ABOUT 55 MILES AN HOUR ON A THREE LANE INTERSTATE FREEWAY. I WAS IN THE SLOW LANE AND MY CAR SUDDENLY AND VIOLENTLY TURNED TO THE LEFT, CAUSING THE CAR TO HIT A LARGE RV IN THE CENTER LANE. THE CAR CONTINUE SPINNING ACROSS THE FAST LANE (IT'S AMAZING NO CARS WERE IN THAT LANE BECAUSE TRAFFIC WAS FAIRLY HEAVY). THE BACK END OF MY CAR HIT THE CENTER CEMENT BARRIER HARD (CAR TOTALED) AND I CAME TO A STOP ON THE INSIDE SHOULDER FACING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF WHERE I WAS ORIGINALLY TRAVELING. THE AIRBAG DID NOT GO OFF AND THE LOCKING PART OF THE SEATBELT DIDN'T SEEM TO WORK. I COULD HAVE BEEN EASILY KILLED OR KILLED SOMEONE ELSE. I WILL CONTACT TOYOTA. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS.

THE TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID SHOWS THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD WITH THE BRAKE, HAZARD, WARNING, AND ABS LIGHTS. UPON RESEARCH IT SEEMS LIKE A KNOWN TOYOTA ISSUE WITH THEIR FAULTY ABS ACCUMULATOR. THE REPLACEMENT COST IS A STAGGERING $2500+ QUOTED BY THE DEALERS. WITHOUT REPLACING IT AFFECTS THE BRAKE SYSTEMS. THERE IS PULSATING IN THE BRAKES. THERE IS ALSO WATER PUMP LEAK ASSOCIATED WITH THIS. THIS SHOULD BE HANDLED BY TOYOTA WITH A RECALL. THERE ARE LOTS OF REPORTING FOR THIS SAME ISSUE AND FIXING THIS ISSUE IS SO COSTLY AND FOR A KNOW FAILED/FAULY COMPONENT.

, TACHOMETER, ABS BREAKS, ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAGE, OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE GAGE ALL SPORADICALLY FAIL.

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS STAY ON AND SPEED ODOMETER STOPS AND ALL START BACK UP. ALSO THE AIR CONDITION START BLOWING OUT LESS AIR AND ONCE THE LIGHTS GOES OFF EVERYTHING START BACK WORKING NORMAL. CALLED TO TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THAT ITS NO RECALL, BUT THIS IS CRAZY BECAUSE ITS TO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING- IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

I WAS GOING TO WORK WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE SUNVISOR FLOPPED DOWN AND I HAD TO MOVE IT TO THE SIDE SO THAT I COULD SEE. THERE WAS NEVER ANY PROBLEM BEFORE NOW. SO FAR THE PASSENGER VISOR STAYS IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. I WILL BE CALLING THE DEALER TOMORROW AS I HAVE AN OIL CHANGE SCHEDULED FOR FRIDAY.

I OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE AND FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING IF IT IS ON UNLEVEL GROUND. I ASSUMED IT WAS SOMETHING IN THE GAS I HAD RECENTLY PURCHASED BUT THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE THE CASE. IF MY CAR IS PARKED ON UNLEVEL GROUND, I NOW HAVE TO PLACE THE GEAR IN NEUTRAL AND PUSH THE CAR TO A LEVEL GROUND IN ORDER FOR IT TO START. I RECENTLY HAD IT CHECKED OUT BY A MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT HAD TO BE A SENSOR IN THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING MY CAR TO RESPOND IN ONE OF TWO WAYS: 1) THERE WAS NO GAS IN THE TANK OR 2) THE ANTITHEFT SENSOR WAS ON AND THE CAR DOESN'T START IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STOLEN. I HAD A FULL TANK AT THE TIME SO OPTION 1 WAS DEFINITELY NOT THE CASE. THIS ISSUE IS CONTINUOUS, IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS ISSUE WHERE YOUR CAR WON'T START IF YOU ARE ON UNLEVEL GROUND??? ...UPDATED08/20/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. UPDATED 11/27/15*JS

1. PLASTIC STRIP ON PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG KEEPS POPPING OPEN. 2. THE WHOLE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING; AND THE SUN BURNED A SPOT ON THE FRONT OF THE RADIO.

MY TIRE SENSOR LIGHT REMAINS ON, EVEN WHEN THE TIRES HAVE THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF AIR IN THEM.

I TOOK MY TOYOTA IN TO TOYOTA RIVERSIDE CALIF. BOTH VISORS WOULD NOT STAY UP SO THE REPLACED AND CHARGED ME 223.26. ON MARCH 20TH 2015 THE DRIVERS SIDE WOULD NOT STAY UP AND I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE AND THE REPRESENATIVE SAID SINCE MY CAR WAS A 07 IT ONLY COVERED FOR THE RECALL 7 YEARS AND MY CARS MANUFACTURE DATED SEPT 07 SO I WAS 6 MONTHS TO LATE TO GET THE RECALL TAKEN CARE OF. SO I CALLED TOYOTA MOTOR CORP IN TORRANCE AND THEY INFORMED THAT SINCE I PAID FOR THE VISORS TO GET FIXED AND PAID FOR THEM THEY WOULD GIVE ME A REFUND BACK. THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE VISOR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE TO GET FIXED AND I TOLD THEM THAT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY KNEW I HAD ALREADY REPLACED THEM AND THE DRIVERS SIDE DID THE SAME THING AS THE ORIGINAL DEFECT. I THINK THIS IS THERE ISSUE TO REPLACE THE VISOR EVEN THOUGH IT WAS 6 MONTHS TO LATE FROM THE DATE THE CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. THEY NEVER FIXED THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM WITH THE VISOR RECALL, THEY JUST REPLACED IT. PLEASE HELP ME TO GET THE VISOR CORRECTED.

WHEN DRIVING DOWNHILL WITH FOOT DEPRESSED ON BRAKE THE VEHICLE WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE, ABS LIGHT GAME ON AND BRAKE LIGHT SIMULTANEOUSLY , SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING, TACH WENT CRAZY AND CAR BEGAN TO IDLE ROUGHLY AND TRY TO SURGE FORWARD WITH FOOT ON BRAKES

ON 11/19/2013, I FLIPPED MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE AIR BAGS NEVER CAME OUT. I REPORTED TO TOYOTA CORPORATION AND THEY NEVER OFFERED AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS.

MY SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING, ABS BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON, ODOMETER METER DANCES, AND AIR CONDITIONING POPS ON AND OFF, ALL OCCURRED AT THE SAME TIME. IT STARTED HAPPENING WHEN I REPLACED MY REAR BREAKS. I AM TRYING TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. I SEE SO MANY COMPLAINS ON ELECTRICAL STUFF. BUT IT SEEMS THAT TOYOTA REFUSES RECALL TOYOTA CAMRY 2007. AND TO FIX IT AROUND $4,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS CONSUMING OIL EXCESSIVELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS DID NOT PROVIDE ANY ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

*******2ND COMPLAINT******WE BOUGHT A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IN OCTOBER 06 AND HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING LOW OIL LEVELS FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. ON A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS, THE OIL LEVEL HAS GOTTEN SO LOW THAT THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. WE HAVE BEEN REPORTING THE PROBLEM TO TWO SEPARATE TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS AND THEY'VE ASKED ME TO RETURN THE CAR FOR OIL CHECKS AFTER 1000 MILES, WHICH SHOW A LOST OF OVER A QUART OF OIL. OUR TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN TELLING US THAT IT IS NORMAL FOR THE CAMRY TO CONSUME OVER A QUART OF OIL AFTER 1000 TO 3,000 MILES AND THERE IS NO PROBLEM TO FIX. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH FIDELITY AND A SERVICE SPECIALIST BY THE NAME OF [XXX] AT TOYOTA OF ORLANDO BEEN GIVING ME THE RUN AROUND ABOUT GETTING FIDELITY TO GIVE THEM THE GO AHEAD TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. HE SAID THAT HE HAS CALLED FIDELITY A COUPLE OF TIMES TO GET AUTHORIZATION BUT THEY HAVE NOT GOTTEN BACK WITH HIM BUT WILL CONTACT US WHEN HE GETS THE OK. IT HAS BEEN OVER TWO WEEKS SINCE HE SAID HE HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET THE GO AHEAD FROM FIDELITY, SO WE DECIDED TO CALL FIDELITY TO FIND OUT WHY THEY WERE DELAYING GIVING THE DEALERSHIP THE GO AHEAD TO FIX THE CAR, SEEING THAT WE HAVE THE PLATINUM PLACE. FIDELITY INFORMED US THAT NO ONE FROM TOYOTA OF ORLANDO HAS EVER CONTACTED THEM AT ANY TIME ABOUT OUR 2007 CAMRY. WE THEN SPOKE WITH A SERVICE MANAGER BY THE NAME OF [XXX] AND HE HAS BEEN GIVING ME THE SAME STORY ABOUT IT IS NOT UNUSUAL FOR THE CAMRY TO CONSUME OVER A QUART OF OIL BETWEEN 1000 TO 3000 MILES, SO THERE IS NOTHING TO FIX. WE HAVE OWNED OVER 8 CARS AND HAS NEVER HAD THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I HAVE SPOKEN TO SEVERAL MECHANICS AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO A NEWER MODEL CAR LIKE OURS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL EXTENDED TO THE FLOOR WHEN IT WAS DEPRESSED AND THE STOPPING DISTANCE INCREASED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE BRAKE AND ABS SENSORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 175,232.

ON APRIL 1, 2015, I REPORTED THAT BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON FREQUENTLY AND THE AIR CONDITIONER GOES OFF. SINCE THAT TIME, I HAVE ALSO NOTED INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES WHEN HAVING TO STOP FAST. I AM CONCERNED THAT IN AN EMERGENCY STOPPING SITUATION, THE ABS WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY WHICH WILL CAUSE A CRASH. AS I REPORTED PREVIOUSLY, THE DEALERSHIP INDICATES THEY HAVE NO KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THIS IS HARD TO BELIEVE IN LIGHT OF ALL THE ENTRIES ON THE INTERNET. ALSO, THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL FOR THE CAMRY HYBRID FOR THE SAME ISSUE.

CHECK VSC SYSTEM WARNING CAME ON ALONG WITH BRAKE AND OTHER WARNING ICONS. HAVE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A MORE THAN NORMAL PROBLEM FOR 2007 CAMRY HYBRIDS.

FOR MANY MONTHS I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION SOON AFTER CAR BEING SERVICED. LESS THAN 2 WEEKS OIL HAS DEPLETED. CAUSING ENGINE NOT TO START OR STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC THAN CAN CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT OR A POSSIBLE FIRE BECAUSE NO OIL. THEREFORE AFFECTING OTHER PARTS OF THE CAR EVENTUALLY. TOYOTA HAS RELEASED EXTENDED WARRANTY AND KNEW ABOUT THIS MATTER FOR A FEW YEARS NOW. BUT ARE TELLING ITS CUSTOMERS THEY ARE WORKING ON PUTTING PART TOGETHER TO REPLACE THOSE PARTS AT THEIR EXPENSE. HOWEVER, AS CUSTOMERS, WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED DATES OF WHEN OUR VEHICLES WILL BE FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR STRUT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS LEAKING OIL. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE STRUT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD WAS MAKING AN ABNORMAL SQUEAKING SOUND WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

STRUTS ON CAMRY HAVING BEEN LEAKING BEFORE WARRANTY EXPIRED. SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE I KNOW WITH CAMRY HAS SAME PROBLEM. WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL?

SEAT BELT SAFETY LIGHT CAME ON AND NEVER GOES OFF. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ME THOUSAND OF DOLLARS TO FIX. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A SAFETY FEATURE. ALSO MY BRAKING SYSTEM HAD A LEAK AT JUST OVER 35000 MILES THAT COST ME 1300.00 AND IT WAS NEVER ON THE RECALL LIST.

THE HYBRID BATTERY OVERHEATED ACCORDING TO THE SHOP OF THE DEALER. ACCORDING TO THE MECHANIC THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. THE WARRANTY IS 8 YEARS OR 100,000 MILES ON HYBRID BATTERY. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE FRONT FILTER ALLOWS DIRT INTO THE HYBRID BATTERY COMPARTMENT, WHICH RESULTS IN THE OVERHEATING. IT IS A $3,900.00 COST TO REPLACE THE HYBRID BATTERY. THE MECHANIC ALSO STATES THAT THE NEW FILTER HAS BEEN MODIFIED IN ORDER TO NOT ALLOW THE DEBRIS TO GET INTO THE HYBRID BATTERY. IF TOYOTA WAS AWARE TO THE POINT OF MODIFYING THE FILTER IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE DEBRIS FROM GETTING INTO THE HYBRID BATTERY AREA WHY DIDN'T THEY TELL ME THAT THE FILTER WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED REPLACED TO PROTECT THE HYBRID BATTERY?

THE HYBRID BATTERY OVERHEATED ACCORDING THE MECHANIC AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT OTHER HYBRID BATTERIES HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE FILTER AT THE FRONT OF THE CAR, WHICH ALLOWS DEBRIS AND DIRT TO GET INTO THE COMPARTMENT THAT HOUSES THE HYBRID BATTERY. IT IS A $3,900 COST TO REPLACE THE HYDRID BATTERY SINCE IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY WITH 200,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT TOYOTA HAD MODIFIED THE NEW FILTER TO STOP THE DEBRIS AND OVERHEATING PROBLEM, AND THAT THE NEW FILTER WOULD NOT ALLOW DEBRIS IN. SINCE TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF THE FILTER ALLOWING DEBRIS INTO THE HYDRID BATTERY DEPARTMENT, AND MODIFIED THE NEW FILTER TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM WHY WAS I NOT NOTIFIED TO REPLACE THE FILTER BEFORE IT ALLOWED THE BATTERY TO OVERHEAT THE HYBRID BATTERY TO BE DESTROYED?

I BOUGHT A USED 2007 CAMRY FROM TOYOTA DEALER. SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT IT, THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT CAME ON. SO I IMMEDIATELY CHANGED THE OIL. BUT EVERY 1500 MILES AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. I TOLD THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY KEEP ON SAYING THIS IS NORMAL.

VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT ELECTRIC PROBLEMS WITH THE GAUGES AND ABS MODULE DOES NOT ENGAGE WHEN BRAKING.. RED ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT LIGHT ON, AND ALL GAUGES DO NOT FUNCTION EXCEPT TEMPERATURE AND GAS GAUGE .

I WAS JUST LEAVING MY HOUSE AND APPROACHING A STOP SIGN. AS I ENGAGED TO BRAKES NOTHING HAPPENED AND OUT OF NOWHERE THE CAR MAKES A HARD STOP AND MY DASH LIGHTS UP WITH WARNING LIGHTS. INSTANTLY NOTHING ABOUT THIS CAR SEEMS SAFE!

THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED BY AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP 3 YEARS AGO AND IT ONLY HAD 42,000 MILES. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DID NOT SHIFT PROPERLY AND WOULD JERK SUDDENLY AS IT SHIFTED IN LOWER GEARS. RECENTLY I WAS HEARING NOISE FROM THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WHERE THE TRANSMISSION IS LOCATED. BROUGHT IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP THAT ORIGINALLY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION. THEY SAID THAT IT WAS THE WATER PUMP AND THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION. THE DIAGNOSIS DIDN'T SEEM RIGHT TO ME AND SUSPECTED MAYBE THE DEALER DIDN'T WANT TO ADMIT THAT THE TRANSMISSION THEY HAD REPLACED WAS HAVING PROBLEMS AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR A SECOND OPINION. THEY TOLD ME THE SAME THING. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE CAR HAS NEVER LEAKED FLUID AND HAS NEVER OVERHEATED WHICH ARE SYMPTOMS OF WATER PUMP PROBLEMS. I DECIDED TO HAVE THEM CHANGE THE WATER PUMP SINCE TWO SEPARATE TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS WERE TELLING ME THIS WAS THE PROBLEM AND WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE NOISE. DROVE THE CAR HOME AND THE GRINDING NOISE WAS STILL THERE. I DECIDED TO GIVE IT SOME TIME AND MAYBE THE NOISE WOULD GO AWAY EVENTUALLY. TWO DAYS AFTER GETTING THE CAR WORKED ON THE NOISE GOT LOUDER. I DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR BACK TO HAVE THE DEALER CHECK IT AGAIN. ON MY WAY THERE, THE TRANSMISSION STARTED TO SLIP GEARS. IT GOT A POINT WHERE THE CAR COULD BARELY DRIVE 20 MILES/HR. MY TRANSMISSION WENT COMPLETELY OUT AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. THE TRANSMISSION IS BROKEN. WHAT REALLY FRUSTRATES ME IS THAT I HAVE ONLY PUT 23,000 MILES ON THE SECOND TRANSMISSION AND NOW IT IS GOING TO NEED A 3RD TRANSMISSION. MY SAFETY HAS BEEN AT RISK AND THE CAR NEVER GAVE ME A CHECK ENGINE WARNING. KEEP IN MIND I TOOK MY CAMRY TO 2 SEPARATE TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS AND THEY GAVE ME THE RUN AROUND WITH A DIAGNOSIS OF A PART THAT WAS NO WHERE NEAR WHERE I WAS HEARING THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THEIR 6 SPEED TRANS

CLUNK, POP AND KNOCK IN STEERING WHEEL. SLOPPY STEARING WHEEL . LIKELY NEEDS NEW INTERMEDIATE SHAFT BECAUSE OF MANUFATURER DEFECTIVE PART AS OUTLINED IN TOYOTA TECHNICAL SERVICE BELLETIN: ST002-07

WHEN I BROUGHT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA CONVERTIBLE FOR A FAULTY LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR, ANOTHER PROBLEM WAS DETECTED. I ASKED TO SEE THE ISSUE WHILE THE CAR WAS UP ON THE LIFT. I COULD OBSERVE WHAT LOOKED LIKE A SHREDDING/DAMAGED RACK AND PINION POWER STEERING BOOT WITH FLUID VISIBLE. THE FIRST DEALER WRITTEN ESTIMATE SAYS "REPLACE POWER STEERING RACK AND PINION (FOUND POWER STEERING FLUID LEAKING INTO BOOT OF RACK AND PINION)" FOR $1354.88, PLUS 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT FOR $160.95. THE SECOND DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDED REPLACING ONE RACK AND PINION BOOT AND THAT POWER STEERING FLUID GASKET, FOR $594.58 PLUS A $99 ALIGNMENT, WHICH I DID. THE DEALER CHECKED AND THERE HAS NOT YET BEEN A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE, BUT I CHECKED ONLINE AND THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME/SIMILAR ISSUE. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY POWER STEERING SYSTEM, WHETHER THE OTHER GASKET WILL LEAK OR THE SYSTEM FAIL WHILE DRIVING.

SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER GOES TO ZERO OR TACHOMETER (RPMS) NEEDLE BOUNCES AROUND. ABS AND BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS GO ON, TEMPERATURE GAUGE GOES TO ZERO. AIR CONDITIONING STOPS BLOWING COLD AIR. ALL HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS.

5/13/2015: 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. VSC (VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL) LIGHT CAME ON (5/9/2015). IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. HAD TO FLOOR THE BRAKES IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE STEERING WAS ALL OVER THE PLACE, NOT TIGHT WITH THE STEERING WHEEL MOVEMENTS. BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (NEW COUNTRY TOYOTA OF CLIFTON PARK, NY) WHERE WE BOUGHT IT 9 MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THIS IS A COMMON PART THAT FAILS. IF THIS IS TRUE, THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL...THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. I AM THANKFUL THAT MY SON DIDN'T GET IN AN ACCIDENT. THEY NOW WANT $2500 TO REPAIR IT. WHEN WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR OUR SON 9 MONTHS AGO, THEY SAID THAT WE CAN GET 250,000 MILES OUT OF IT, IT WAS A VERY SAFE CAR FOR OUR SON TO BE IN....I BEG TO DIFFER!!! I SEE LOTS OF COMPLAINTS LISTED FOR THIS ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTOL AND HOPE THERE WILL BE A RECALL.

AT THE FIRST DAY OF WARM WEATHER, THE SUN SEEMED TO MELT THE DASH AND CAUSE A GLARE ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. IT GETS SO BAD THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE DASH TOP SEEMS TO TURN TO A STICKY, GLUE SUBSTANCE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

I HAD TAKEN THE CAR IN FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. WHILE I WAS THERE I WAS ADVISED OF A BULLETIN STATING AN BRAKE RESERVOIR TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. WHEN I GOT THE CAR BACK EVERYTHING SEEM FINE. THE NEXT DAY I HEARD WHAT I WOULD CALL A CHIRPING COMING FROM INSIDE THE ENGINE DEPARTMENT. I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO SEE WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM AT THAT TIME. I CHECKED IT LATER THE NEXT DAY, BUT COULDN'T GET IT TO ACT UP. AGAIN, THE NEXT DAY I HEARD IT AGAIN. IT TOOK SEVERAL DAYS FOR ME TO FIGURE OUT THAT IT ONLY SHOWED UP WHEN THE BRAKES WERE DEPRESSED. I WAITED TO TAKE CARE OF IT SINCE I KNEW I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE CAR BACK FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND IT WAS ONLY A NOISE. ON 2/7/15 I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A FAULTY ACTUATOR AND IT WOULD COST $1447.39 TO REPAIR. I WENT ON LINE REGARDING THE PROBLEM WITH THE RESERVOIR. IT STATES "ANALYSIS OF THE FAILURE DATA INDICATE THAT EACH CONDITION PROVIDES WARNING PRIOR TO ANY REDUCTION IN POWER ASSISTED BRAKING, WITH LESS THAN 10 PERCENT OF ALL REPORTS AND CLAIMS INVOLVING DIAGNOSTIC CODES OR COMPLAINT NARRATIVES INDICATING INCREASED BRAKING EFFORT OR REDUCED BRAKE EFFECTIVENESS. IN ADDITION, MOST OF THE INCIDENTS IN WHICH REDUCED BRAKING ASSIST APPEARS TO HAVE OCCURRED INVOLVED OPERATION IN A REDUCED ASSIST MODE AND NOT A SUDDEN, COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER ASSISTED BRAKING". IN THOSE CASES THEY WILL REPLACE THE ACTUATOR. I FEEL THIS WAS CAUSED BY BY THE RESERVOIR BEING REPLACED. I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM UNTIL THIS WAS DONE!

DRIVING TODAY WITH MY SON IN THE CAR I LOST ALL BRAKE POWER. UNABLE TO USE THE BRAKES THEN MOMENTS LATER IT RETURNED.

MY CAR HAS A STICKY DASHBOARD AND IT'S SLOWLY DETERIORATING. IN THE SUMMER TIME IT'S VERY STICKY AND EVERYTHING STICKS TO IT.

MY DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND SEEMS TO BE MELTING HAS A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE SIDE WINDOW CASING OVER AIRBAGS ALONG WINDSHIELD WINDOWS IS WARPED AND KEEP POPING OUT EXPOSEING WIRES.I BOUGHT THIS CAR ONE YEAR AGO AND AS I WAS TOLD IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN A WRECK. I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS SO WHAT AM I TO DO?

SUN VISOR BROKE, NOT ABLE TO RAISE VISOR COMPLETELY UP OR DOWN WHICH WHICH BLOCKS MY VISION LINE. *TR

DASHBOARD PANEL GAUGES STARTED TO FLUCTUATE. THEY BOUNCE UP AND DOWN. ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS CAME ON. AC STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED TO TOYOTA RECALL CENTER AND WAS DIRECTED TO GO TO A TOYOTA DEALER TO HAVE THE CAR INSPECTED IN MY OWN COST....... *TR

WHEN BRAKING FOR A YELLOW STOPLIGHT. I LOST ALL BRAKES AND BRAKE PRESSURE. SEVERAL INDICATOR LIGHTS INCLUDING THE ABS LIGHT AS WELL AS A MESSAGE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM". THERE WERE NO VEHICLES NEXT TO ME SO I WAS ABLE TO CHANGE LANES TO CLEAR TRAFFIC IN ONCOMING TURN LANES AND PASS THROUGH THE INTERSECTION SAFELY. THE BRAKES REENGAGED AT THE NEXT APPLICATION OF THE BRAKE. WE DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME AND THE EVENT OCCURRED AT EACH STOP, APPROX 10 OCCURRENCES, DEPRESSING THE BRAKE AND FAILING WITH THE ERRORS ABOVE THEN REDEPRESSING TO ENGAGE THE SYSTEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 CAMRY LE AND IN 2013 I NOTICED THE ABS AND BREAK LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD COME ON INTERMITTENTLY, TACHOMETER BOUNCES UP AND DOWN AND SPEEDOMETER SHOWS 0. THIS KEPT HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE, SINCE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, IF IT DOESN'T SHOW THE CORRECT READING ON THE SPEEDO METER AND THE BREAKS MAY NOT FUNCTION AS EXPECTED WHICH MIGHT LEAD TO ACCIDENTS. I GOT IT CHECKED(DIAGNOSTICS TEST) AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR UNIT IS FAULTY AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THE COST WOULD BE AROUND $2000. I CALLED TOYOTA TO COMPLAIN SINCE THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC COMPONENT AND NOTHING REALLY RELATED TO WARE AND TEAR, THEY INDICATED THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR ABS ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. I LOOKED ONLINE AND FOUND THAT CAMRY HYBRIDS 2007 HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND TOYOTA IS PROVIDING "WARRANTY EXTENSION" FOR OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THE SAME WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR ABS ACTUATOR SHOULD APPLY TO 2007 CAMRY NON HYBRID MODELS ALSO. SEEKING NHTSA HELP IN THIS REGARD. *TR

ALL THE 4 STRUTS ARE LEAKING. I TOOK THE CAR FOR TIRE ROTATION AT GOODYEAR SERVICE STATION. THEY TOLD ME THAT ALL 4 STRUTS ARE LEAKING AND NEED REPLACEMENT. I THEN TOOK THE CAR OF NTB THEY SAID SAME THING. IT'S UNUSUAL FOR CARMY WITH 50000 MILES TO HAVE ALL 4 STRUTS LEAKING. I SEE LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THE CAMRY. THE RIDE IS BUMPY. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. TOOK VEHICLE INTO DEALER WITH COMPLAINT OF ENGINE VALVE NOISE. DEALER SAID NO WAY VALVE PROBLEMS WITH THEIR CARS AT THAT MILEAGE. LEFT WITH $1800 IN NON-ASSOCIATED REPAIRS. NOTICED ACCELERATING CONSUMPTION OF OIL. TRIED AGAIN TO GET A FIX WITH PCV VALVE AND ALL FILTERS REPLACED. CONSTANTLY TOPPING OFF WITH OIL BETWEEN REGULAR OIL CHANGES. WOULDN'T ACCEPT THE FACT THAT ENGINE VALVE SEALS WERE DEFECTIVE. NOT ON A TOYOTA WITH LESS THAN 90,000 MILES. FINALLY DID A MONITORING TEST A MONTH AGO AND REALIZED MY CAR HAD CONSUMED 4 QUARTS OF OIL IN ABOUT 1600 MILES. THE FIX COST ME ABOUT $2000. THEN I CHECK THIS WEBSITE ONLY TO FIND ABOUT 100 SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY'S. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND TOYOTA'S CLAIM IN MY OWNER'S MANUAL THAT 1.1 QTS PER 600 MILES IS ACCEPTABLE IS RIDICULOUS. I'M CHECKING FOR PARTICIPATION IN A CLASS-ACTION SUIT. THEY NEED TO "FESS UP" TO THEIR DESIGN OR MANUFACTURING FLAW IF THEY EVER WANT ME BACK AS A NEW-CAR CUSTOMER AGAIN. ENGINES UNEXPECTEDLY SEIZING UP AT INTERSTATE HIGHWAY SPEEDS CAN KILL! *TR

I WAS DRIVING AND NOTICED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS WERE ON. THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER WERE AT ZERO AND THE WATER TEMP METER WAS BOUNCING UP AND DOWN. I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED ONE OF THE COMPUTER PARTS THAT CONTROLS THE DASH, THEY HAD TO HAVE THE ODOMETER READINGS SET PRIOR TO SHIPMENT. THE REPAIR COST AROUND $700, BUT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I DID A SEARCH ON-LINE AND OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR CAMRY'S. SOME WERE CLAIMING THAT THE ISSUE IS WITH THE ABS MODULE. I UNPLUGGED THE ELECTRICAL LEAD TO THE ABS MODULE AND PLUGGED IT BACK IN AND THE ISSUE WAS CORRECTED FOR SEVERAL HOURS, BUT ULTIMATELY CAME BACK. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR LIKE THIS FOR WHILE AND IT ISSUE WITH THE DASH IS INTERMITTENT. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE THERMOMETER COMES AND GOES, THE INDICATOR OF WHICH GEAR I AM IN COMES ON AND GOES OFF AND THE ODOMETER DOES NOT ADVANCE WHEN THE DASH IS MALFUNCTIONING. THERE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A PATTERN OF WHEN THE PROBLEM STARTS OR STOPS IT APPEARS TO BE RANDOM, IT SWITCHES FROM WORKING TO NOT SEVERAL TIMES AN HOUR. *TR

THE HYBRID BATTERY MALFUNCTIONED AND NEEDS REPLACED AFTER ONLY 90K MILES. *TR

BRAKING WENT VERY SOFT. CHECK VSC SYSTEM WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED ALONG WITH MULTIPLE DASH LIGHT AND ADDITIONAL ERROR MESSAGE TO CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE GEAR LEVER FAILED TO SHIFT FROM PARK INTO REVERSE UNTIL AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. ON A SEPARATE OCCASION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC REPLACED THE BRAKE STOP LIGHT SWITCH, BUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO EMIT SMOKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AFTER EVERY 1,000 I NEED TO ADD A QUART OF OIL. IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, EVERY 4,000 MILES, I NEED TO ADD 4 QUARTS OF OIL. WHERE IS THIS OIL GOING? I DON'T HAVE ANY OIL ON MY DRIVE WAY, GARAGE FLOOR, OR ANYWHERE ELSE. I ALWAYS TAKE IT TO TOYOTA TO GET IT SERVICED AND THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHERE IT IS GOING EITHER. DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON. TOYOTA HAS NO ANSWERS FOR ME. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL TOYOTA CAMRY, BUT THIS IS BY FAR, MY WORSE EXPERIENCE WITH A TOYOTA. VERY DISPOINTED AND NEED THIS RESOLVED SOON! *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK, AND AS I WAS COMING TO A STOP I HEARD A WARNING DING, LOOKED DOWN, AND MY DASHBOARD READ "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE." I FOUND THAT WARNING ODD CONSIDERING I HAVE ONLY PUT 2,000 MILES ON MY CAR SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE, I HAVE NOT NOTICED ANY OIL LEAKS IN MY PARKING SPOT OR UNDER MY CAR, AND I HAD MY TRANSMISSION SERVICED FOUR WEEKS AGO AND THERE WAS NO MENTION OF ANY LEAKS BY THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN. I PULL INTO THE WALMART PARKING LOT CLOSE BY, CHECK MY OIL, AND OIL LEVELS ARE NOT REGISTERING ON MY DIPSTICK. I QUICKLY BOUGHT 2 QUARTS OF THE MANUFACTURERS RECOMMENDED WEIGHT OF OIL, PUT THEM IN, AND WENT DIRECTLY TO MY SERVICE STATION. THE SERVICE STATION TOOK ME IN IMMEDIATELY, COMPLETED THEIR INSPECTION, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY CANNOT FIND ANY LEAKS ANYWHERE. IN ADDITION, THERE ARE NO BAD SMELLS, NO SMOKE, NO SIGNS OF OIL BURNING, NOTHING. THEY RECOMMENDED AN OIL CHANGE, WHICH I DID. THE SERVICE STATION GAVE ME A 50% DISCOUNT ON THE SERVICE BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY 2 MONTHS AND 2,000 MILES SINCE I WAS LAST THERE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE MECHANIC SUGGESTED THAT I KEEP A CASE OF OIL IN MY TRUNK, CHECK THE OIL LEVEL ONCE A WEEK, AND ADD OIL AS NEEDED. I THINK THIS IS A LOT OF OIL CONSUMPTION, AND A LOT OF WORK FOR SUCH A YOUNG VEHICLE. MY CAR IS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE 4 CYLINDER WITH 79,004 MILES AS OF 21 APRIL 2015. *TR

THE PROBLEM STARTED AROUND 40K MILES WITH MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2007, WHILE DRIVING THE BREAK LIGHT WARNING WOULD COME ON AS WELL AS THE ABS & PARKING WARNING LIGHT. THE ODOMETER & RPM GAUGES GO TO ZERO. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING THE BREAKS TAKE HARDER AND LONGER TO ENGAGE. THE CAR SHAKES AS WELL WITH MINIMAL BREAKING EFFICIENCY. INTERMITTENTLY THE STEERING WHEELS ALSO BECOMES HARD TO TURN AND SHAKES VIGOROUSLY, WHICH WOULD CAUSE MY WRIST TO HURT. TOYOTA DEALER INDICATED THAT NEW BREAK ACTUATOR IS REQUIRED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY ASKED ME TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE BREAK ACTUATOR PROBLEM. I FOLLOWED UP WITH ANOTHER LETTER TO THE EXECUTIVE AT TOYOTA, ABBASS SADDAT, VP. DANICA WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICE CONTACT ME BACK. SHE STARTED BY BRUSHING ME OFF INITIALLY. WHEN I INDICATED THAT THE SAME PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED BY TOYOTA FOR THE SAME YEAR FOR THE HYBRID VERSION, SHE INDICATED THAT OK, SO IT IS NOT FOR OUR GAS MODEL. I INDICATED THAT THE WHEN YOU CONTACT TOYOTA DEALER PARTS DEPARTMENT, IT IS THE SAME PART FOR BOTH GAS AND HYBRID. SO WHEN SHE HEARD THAT, SHE SAID, 'OHH' OK, LET ME INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. SHE MADE IT EVIDENT THAT HER JOB WAS TO BRUSH ME OFF, WITHOUT ACTUALLY LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM OR WANTING TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT TAKE INITIATIVE UNLESS A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC DIES OR GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED. SO FAR I AM STILL WAITING FOR HE R CONTACTING ME CONFIRM HE DEALERS FINDING OR ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. THIS A SERIOUS PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE. FURTHER MORE, THE TOYOTA DEALER INDICATED THE CAR IS WORTH $7200. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO REPLACE A ABS BREAK ACTUATOR TO BE CLOSE TO THE HALF OF THE PRICE OF THE CAR EITHER.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION BETWEEN OIL MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE ABILITY TO BRAKE SEIZED. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANEUVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE ABS AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED OR DIAGNOSED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

I WAS BACKING UP IN MY DRIVEWAY, TURNING THE VEHICLE AROUND. THE CHECK VSC WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON AS WELL AS THE ABS WARNING LIGHT AND ANOTHER RED EXCLAMATION POINT. THE BRAKES CEASED WORKING PROPERLY, JERKING WITH EVEN THE LIGHTEST TOUCH, AND NOT WORKING AT ALL FOR A FEW SCARY SECONDS, AND THEN SUDDENLY JERKING AS IF THEY HAD BEEN SLAMMED ON HARD. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE DOWN OUR ROADWAY FOR A HALF MILE, WE CONCLUDED THAT THE BRAKES WERE GOING TO CONTINUE TO DO THIS AS THE CONDITION DID NOT CHANGE. *TR

CHECK VSC WARNING INDICATOR CAME ON WHEN DRIVING MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID THIS AFTERNOON. WHEN THAT WAS ON, MY CAR WAS DRAGGING AS IF THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WERE ON. SO I DROVE VERY SLOW WHEN THIS TOOK PLACE, IN AN ATTEMPT TO GET HOME SINCE I WAS ONLY A FEW MILES FROM WHERE I LIVED. IN ABOUT 5-7 MINUTES, WHEN I HAD STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, THIS WARNING WENT OFF AND THE CAR WORKED AS IT NORMALLY HAS. WHEN I GOT HOME AND GOOGLED THIS FOR MY CAR, A NUMBER OF ARTICLES CAME UP ABOUT A POSSIBLE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE FOR 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS. CAN YOU PLEASE ADVISE ON THE STATUS OF THE POSSIBLE RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE WITH THIS CAR? *TR

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMERA THE AIR BAGS LIGHTS ON FOR THE DRIVERS SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE ON AND THE SEATBELT LIGHT ON. *TR

MY TOYOTA SOLERA IS GOING THRU EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL! I'M CONTINUOUSLY ADDING OIL...AND IT'S NOT LEAKING ANYWHERE. ...WHERE THE HELL IS IT GOING! MY ENGINE IS GOING TO BURN UP! I WANT ANSWERS! 2.4 L 4-CYLIMDER (2AZ-FE). *TR

- 2007 CAMRY HAS BEEN CONSUMING UNREAL AMOUNT OF ENGINE OIL. - I TOOK IT TO THE DELEARSHIP; AND THEY MENTIONED REPLACEMENT OF PISTONS WILL BE COVERED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY BUT IF THE ENGINE IS DAMAGED THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. AT THIS POINT, I AM NOT EVEN SURE THE PISTON IS NOT WORKING AS IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. - THE CAR WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW AND THE DEFECT ON ENGINE WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION ONLY A MONTH AGO IN 2015. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE BATTERY WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.

THE SUN VISOR BROKE WHEN I WAS USING IT WHILE THE SUN WAS COMING DOWN. IT'S A SAFETY HAZARD SINCE THE SUN BLINDS YOU. TOYOTA DOES NOT PRODUCE RELIABLE CARS LIKE THEY USED TO. *TR

WE GOT A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ON OUR TOYOTA WHICH STARTED TO LOSE ALOT OF OIL WE TOOK TO TOYOTA GREEN IN LEXINGTON KY THEY HAD ON THEIR REPORT WE DONE OVER 2196 MILES WHEN STARTED THE TEST. WHICH WAS COMPLETELY WRONG THEY SAID WE ONLY USED 1/2 QUART OF OIL SO IT WAS NOT LOSING ENOUGH OIL EMAILED TOYOTA CONSIDERS OIL CONSUMPTION EXCESSIVE WHEN IT EXCEEDS 1.1 QUART PER 600 MILES. MY HUSBAND HAS BEEN CHECKING SINCE TOOK WRITES DOWN MILEAGE WHEN HE CHECKS IT HAD LITTLE OVER 900 MILES ON IT AND WE HAD LOST ALMOST A QUART OF OIL IT LIKED 1/8 BEING A FULL COURT. OF COURSE THEY SAY IT SAYS IT IN THE BOOK WHAT THEY CAN USE. I HAVE HAD EXACTLY 4 TOYOTAS AND THEY HAVE NEVER DONE THIS. THEY TOLD US THAT WE CAN TAKE BACK IN 5000 MILES OR 6MO WHICH EVER COMES FIRST. THIS JUST DOES NOT SOUND RIGHT TO ME. MY HUSBAND WAS NOT BACK THERE WHEN THEY CHECKED EVERY THINK WHICH NEXT TIME HE WILL BE.THEIR EXACT WORDS THEY SAID WHEN CHECKED WHEN THEY FIRST CHECKED IT WAS SLIGHTLY LOW ADDED ONE QT OF OIL RECHECKED AND IT WAS LITTLE OVER. WHEN IT STATES IN THE BOOK ALSO NEVER TO PUT OVER THE AMOUNT OF OIL IN THE CAR. *TR

CAR DASHBOARD WHEN EXPOSED TO SUN , GETS STICKY AND GLOSSY. THE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD CREATES HAZARDOUS DRIVING CONDITION. THE DASHBOARD MATERIAL APPEARS TO BE VINYL. THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED, TOYOTA MOTOR CO. DID SEND A LETTER INFORMING THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS SITUATION, BUT HAS NO RESOLUTION OR TIME FRAME IN SOLVING THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS UNFAIR TO CONSUMERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED AND LOST POWER. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO JERK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

OVER THE LAST FEW MONTHS, FREQUENTLY MY 2007 CAMRY DASHBOARD DISPLAYS ERRONEOUS INFORMATION - TACH, SPEEDOMETER AND TEMPERATURE GAGE READ ZERO AND BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS GO ON. CLEARLY THESE ARE SAFETY ISSUES. ALSO, THE AIR CONDITIONER GOES OFF AND THE AIR COMING OUT OF THE DUCTS GOES TO FULL HOT. DEALERSHIP INDICATES THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM BEFORE AND THEREFORE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. I SEE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THE WEB AND NOTICED THAT THE CAMRY HYBRID HAS A RECALL FOR SOMETHING THAT LOOKS SIMILAR TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

THE CAR SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE NEEDLE WENT TO ZERO, THE TACHOMETER FLUCTUATES OUT OF CONTROL UP AND DOWN, THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON, THE LIGHTS THAT INDICATE WHAT GEAR YOU ARE IN TURNED OFF, THE GAS GAUGE APPEARS TO STILL WORK OKAY, BUT THE MILEAGE STOPS CALCULATING ALTHOUGH THE DIGITAL DISPLAY IS STILL ON JUST NOT COUNTING MILEAGE. I HAVE NO WAY TO KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING OR IF MY CAR WILL EITHER NOT STOP DUE TO BRAKE LIGHTS BEING ON OR JUST CUT OFF SINCE THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME ELECTRICAL MALFUNCTION. THE AIR CONDITIONING ALSO STOPPED WORKING. THIS HAPPENED THE FIRST TIME FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES, THEN AS QUICKLY AS IT STOPPED, IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. IT HAS NOW DONE THIS EACH DAY AT MULTIPLE TIMES DURING EACH TRIP FOR THE PAST 3 DAYS SINCE THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED. NOT KNOWING HOW FAST YOU ARE GOING IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE AND SOUNDS LIKE THIS ISSUE HAS COME UP BEFORE WITH OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING AND CAME TO THE STOP MY SPEEDOMETER DROPPED DOWN TO ZERO, MY TACHOMETER KEEPS GOING UP AND DOWN, THE ABS AND BRAKE SIGNALS LIGHT UP, AND MY A/C SEEMS TO STOP WORKING. I RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE AND NOTICED THAT HUNDREDS OF CONSUMERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ABS MODULATOR/SENSOR CORRODING. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN CLOVIS AND THEY SAID THEY HAD TO START WITH A BASIC DIAGNOSIS OF $129 AND THAT THIS WAS NOT A RECALL ISSUE. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A RECALL OF THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS!? I HAVE A TOMTOM THAT CAN KEEP TRACK OF MY SPEED SO I'LL JUST USE THIS UNTIL A RECALL IS MADE AND THIS ISSUE CAN BE FIXED FREE OF CHARGE. *TR

GOT AN OIL CHANGED AND ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER HEARD ENGINE MAKING A FUNNY KNOCKING AND TICKING SOUND. LOOKED UNDER HOOD TO CHECK FLUIDS AND THE OIL WAS COMPLETELY DRY! HAD TO FILL IT UP W QUARTS OF OIL, AND CONSTANTLY DUMP OIL INTO ENGINE BECAUSE IT WAS BURNING UP SO RAPIDLY EVERY 2/3 WEEKS, MATE NICE LIGHT WOULD COME ON INDICATING LOW OIL, RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA INDICATING THEY HAVE A PROBLEM W THE CAR CONSUMING ENGINE OIL TO RAPIDLY, CONFRONTED THE LOCAL DEALER SHIP OF MY ISSUE N THEY INSIST I MUST PAY OUT OF POCKET TO REPAIR ENGINE WHICH NOW IS KNOCKING VERY LOUDLY N HAS NO ACCELERATION AT 95.00 AN HR THEN THEY CAN PERFORM ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST TO DETERMINE IF THAT WAS THE REASON FOR MY FAILURE! WHICH I KNOW IS!!! I HAVE RESEARCHED IT AND FOUND THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ON TOYOTA DEALING W THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE! HOW DO I GET MY VEHICLE FIXED WITH OUT HAVING TO PAY FOR THEIR ENGINE FAILURE AND POOR MANUFACTURING? *TR

WHEN I WAS DRIVING AT 65 MPH..THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM WARNING CAME ON. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT 1 MONTH AGO. I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT BECAUSE IT WENT OFF AFTER I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN...SO 3 WEEKS LATER IT COMES ON AGAIN AND GOES OFF. WHEN IT CANE ON THE BRAKES DIDN'T WORK AS WELL, AND ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON. YESTERDAY ON 3/25/2015 IT CAME ON AND HAS NOW STAYED ON. THE BRAKES ARE WORKING CORRECTLY, HOWEVER, I KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG. I HAVE BEEN RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE AND FOUND OUT THAT TOYOTA IS ASSISTING WITH FIXING THIS ISSUE. M Y NEXT STEP IS TO CALL THEM. *TR

MELTING DASHBOARD CAUSING GLARES ON THE EYES AND THEREFORE DRIVING BECOMES DANGEROUS.

WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW OFF THE SHOW ROOM FLOOR IN 2008 THE LEFT HEAD LIGHT STOP WORKING $375.00 TO REPLACE THIS IS WITH ME DOING THE WORK. IN 2014 THE RIGHT HEAD LIGHT STOP WORKING I WENT TO TOYOTA AND ASK IF ANY ONE WAS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THIS AND WAS THERE A RECALL ON IT WAS TOLD NO. THIS TIME IT WAS $500.00 TO FIX THE PROBLEM AND THIS WAS ME DOING THE WORK AFTER LOOKING AT THE WEB SITE LOOKS AS IF TOYOTA HAS A PROBLEM AND DOES NOT WANT TO ADDRESS IT I SEE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IS IT GOING TO TAKE SOMEONE GETTING KILLED TO GET THEM TO LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM AND FIX IT. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT AROUND 45MPH. ALL OF A SUDDEN. MY ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT INDICATORS LIGHT UP. MY SPEEDOMETER DROPPED DOWN TO 0. MY GAUGES JUMPING AROUND. MY SPEED IN ACTUALITY DIDN'T GO DOWN TO 0. AND, MY CAR DIDN'T STALL OR CUT OFF. BUT, IF IT HAD. I COULD HAVE BEEN RAN OVER BY A SEMI TRUCK OR ANOTHER VEHICLE. PRIOR TO THIS HAPPENING, MY TIRE SENSOR LIGHT WAS ON. I TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY SAID ONCE THE TIRE SENSOR WAS FIXED, THE OTHER WOULD GO AWAY. I HAD TIRE SENSOR FIXED. THE LIGHTS WENT OFF FOR A BRIEF PERIOD. BUT, BACK ON AGAIN AT INTERVAL TIMES. THE CAR ALSO SEEMS TO WANT TO CUT OFF WHEN IDLING AT RED LIGHTS. WHEN I GOOGLED THE PROBLEMS ONLINE. IT SEEM TOYOTA CARS OF ALL MAKES AND YEARS ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. I AM TAKING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ONCE AGAIN. *TR

ON 20 MARCH 2015, WHILE STARTING THE CAR, A WARNING INDICATOR SHOWED UP ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE INDICATOR STATED ( CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM.....VSC SYSTEM ). I PARKED THE CAR FOR THE DAY. DAY 2, I TOOK THE CAR TO A AUTO SHOP AND HAD A BASIC SCAN THAT READS ABS CODES PERFORMED ON THE CAR. THE BASIC SCAN REVELED TO "REPLACE BATTERY PACK". TWO MECHANICS INFORMED ME WHILE PERFORMING THE SCAN, A BURNING ODOR WAS OBSERVED FROM THE CAR. I DROVE THE CAR HOME AND PARKED IT. I LASTLY OBSERVED THE ONLY INFORMATION DISPLAYED FROM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS " CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM". THE ONLY LIGHTS ON WERE THE WARNING LIGHT AND THE ENGINE LIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE HORN ALARM ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY AND STOPPED AFTER THE SAFETY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000.

FOR THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN A YEAR, THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. THE LIGHTS WENT OUT SHORTLY AFTER, BUT THE ABS ENGAGED WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T, CAUSING MY STOPPING DISTANCE TO BE DRAMATICALLY INCREASED. I NEARLY CRASHED, AND WAS FORCED TO SWERVE TO AVOID THE CAR AHEAD. TOYOTA HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THIS PROBLEM--IT HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED, TWO YEARS RUNNING, AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AS A CORRODED ABS SENSOR.

MY WIFE NEARLY CRASHED OUR 2007 TOYOTA SOLARA WHEN THE LEFT FRONT LOW BEAM LIGHT FAILED AT NIGHT AND THEN IN LESS THAN FIVE MINUTES THE RIGHT FRONT LIGHT LOW BEAM FAILED. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH ON A RURAL STRETCH OF I-85 IN NORTH CAROLINA. I HAD REPLACED THE RIGHT FRONT LIGHT ONLY THREE DAYS EARLIER. THE HIGH BEAMS CONTINUED TO WORK BUT THE NEXT DAY IN A TEST IN DAYLIGHT THE LOW BEAMS WORKED AND THEN FAILED AGAIN WITHIN FIVE MINUTES AND THE HIGH BEAMS ALSO FAILED WITHIN TWENTY (20) MINUTES. I HAVE SINCE READ THE ONLINE WEBSITE AUTO RECALLS FOR CONSUMERS (ARFC) THAT THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM IN 2007 TOYOTA SOLARAS. TOYOTA IS RISKING DEATHS BY NOT ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM. I CALLED TOYOTA (800-331-4331) BUT TOYOTA WAS [XXX] AND HAD HEARD NOTHING ABOUT NOTHING. THE REACTION WOULD BE HUMOROUS EXCEPT THAT IT HAPPENS WHILE PEOPLE ARE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED AND IT COULD KILL THEM, ESPECIALLY AT 70 MPH, THE LEGAL SPEED LIMIT ON I-85 IN RURAL NORTH CAROLINA. MY WIFE WILL NOT DRIVE THE CAR ANYMORE EVEN IN DAYLIGHT BECAUSE SHE FEARS A HEADLIGHT PROBLEM. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE DASHBOARD ALL THE WAY ACROSS OVER THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AREA IS CRACKED AND ALSO THE GLOVE BOX COMPARTMENT AREA IS CRACKED. *TR

"CHECK VSC SYSTEM" . BRAKE SYSTEM WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. MUST PUSH VERY HARD TO GET ANY BRAKING. THEN THE VSC WILL ENGAGE AND BRAKE VERY HARD. I EXPERIENCED THIS ONE WEEK AGO; MY WIFE EXPERIENCED IT THIS MORNING DROPPING OF THE KIDS TO SCHOOL. THE CAR HAS A VERY DANGEROUS JERKING ACTION AS THE BRAKES ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE BASED ON THE COMPUTER. *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE LOST CONTROL OF STEERING, BRAKES AND STABILITY CONTROL. THE CAR SURGED LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT THE WENT OFF THE ROAD TO THE RIGHT. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED BUT DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE ANY FUNCTION. MASSIVE DAMAGE WAS CAUSED TO THE BODY FROM HITTING 2 TREES. NO AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. *TR

THIS CAR HAS BURNED A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES FOR THE PAST SEVEN YEARS. RECENTLY RECEIVED A TSB FROM TOYOTA ON THIS ISSUE AND AS INSTRUCTED, TOOK IT INTO A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. I WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN FROM THEIR STAFF THAT TOYOTA WAS CONSIDERING REPLACING MY ENGINE IF IT DID INDEED BURN A QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. I MEAN COME ON---THE CAR HAS 180K MILES ON IT. NEVER THE LESS, I WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE IDEA. THEY "SEALED" THE OIL CAP SO NO ONE COULD TAMPER WITH THE OIL LEVEL. THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY HAD TOPPED OFF THE OIL LEVEL. I PUT ANOTHER 1200 MILES ON IT AND RETURNED THE CAR AS INSTRUCTED, TO ALLOW THEM TO "PERFORM A DETAILED TEST TO DETERMINE IF THE ENGINE WAS CONSUMING A QUART EVERY 1000 MILES. I CHECKED THE OIL DIPSTICK THE MORNING I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO TOYOTA. IT WAS A FULL QUART LOW ON OIL. INTERESTING, BUT TOYOTA PERFORMED THEIR TEST AND ADVISED THEY WOULD CONTACT ME. DID NOT HAPPEN. A MONTH LATER I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME THE CA HAD BURNED 7/8 OF A QUART AND AS IT WAS LESS THAN A QUART, I WAS BASICALLY SOL. ALL SAID AND DONE, I WAS NOT EXPECTING A NEW ENGINE. I WAS EXPECTING TO LEAVE FEELING I HAD BEEN TREATED FAIRLY AND PROFESSIONALLY. THE NET RESULT IS THAT I HAVE MADE TWO TOTALLY UNNECESSARY TRIPS TO THE DEALER JUST TO BE INFORMED TOYOTA DOES NOT AND WILL NOT DO ANYTHING....BECAUSET THEIR TEST INDICATED THE CAR FAILED TO MEET THEIR CRITERIA BY 1/8 OF A QUART. GEE...IT WAS AQUART LOW WHEN I TOOK IT IN, BUT WAIT...(I MUST BE AN IDIOT AND BLIND. YOU.THINK THEY PULLED THE DIPSTICK OUT AND KEPT LOOKING AT IT UNTIL THEY SAW WHAT THEY WANTED TO SEE?? I HAD BEEN CONSIDERING PURCHASING ANOTHER TOYOTA PRODUCT BUT THIS EXPERIENCE HAS DEMONSTRATED TO ME WHY I SHOULD NEVER CONSIDER TOYOTA. I LIKED THEIR CAMRY, BUT THEY FAILED TO APPRECIATE MY HONESTY AND DEMONSTRATED A LACK OF IMPARTIAL DECISION MAKING. ADIOS AMIGO. *TR

PISTONS HOLDING UP HOOD FAILED. *TR

I AM ONE OF MANY COMPLAINANTS THAT HAVE EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION WITH THIS CAR. I AM USING AT LEAST 1 QUART EVERY 1,000 MILES. *TR

MY 2007 CAMRY IS CONSUMING AROUND 3 QUARTS BETWEEN 3000MILES OIL CHANGE INTERVALS. THIS CONSUMPTION IS QUITE HIGH BY ANY STANDARD. MY CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN MAINTAINED IN A TIMELY MANNER. IF WE CHANGED THE OIL EVERY 5000 LIKE THE MANUAL SAID I WOULD HAVE A CAR RIGHT NOW BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE CEASED UP THE ENGINE. THIS MAKES ME VERY UNHAPPY AND NOT VERY SAFE FOR ME OR MY FAMILY. AT THIS TIME WE ARE NOT ABLE TO GET A NEWER/DIFFERENT CAR.

I AM GOING THROUGH MY SECOND SET OF STRUTS IN 4000 MILES. CONTACTED TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THAT THE OIL FROM STRUTS SOMETIMES LEAKS. TO MY SURPRISE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO DEALS WITH STRUT PROBLEM ON 2007 CAMRYS. MANY PEOPLE IN BLOGS REPORT THAT THE STRUTS JUST GIVE UP AT 10000 MILES, 20000 MILES. MINE GAVE UP AT 4000, I JUST CHANGED THE WHOLE FRONT SET A WEEK AGO AND IT MAKES NOISE AGAIN!!! I DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW SUCH POOR QUALITY PARTS ARE ALLOWED TO BE INSTALLED ON VEHICLES SOLD ON US MARKET. *JS

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED TO ENGAGE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO STOP. THE DRIVER HAD TO SHIFT GEARS INTO REVERSE AND NEUTRAL IN ORDER TO REDUCE SPEED. ALSO, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO ENGAGE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH FAILED TO ENGAGE. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO MERGE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND RESUMED NORMAL FUNCTIONED. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR WAS REPLACED UNDER A MANUFACTURER CAMPAIGN. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 97,000. ## VIN PASSED ## TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID ##

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR LOST ALL BRAKING CAPABILITIES WITH "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" MESSAGE ON INSTRUMENT PANEL, ABS LIGHT, PARKING BRAKE LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, ENGINE LIGHT, WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO PULL CAR OFF OF THE ROAD AND INTO A PARKING LOT. I WAITED SEVERAL HOURS AND TRIED AGAIN TO START THE CAR TO TAKE TO TOYOTA FOR SERVICE. THE CAR RAN JUST FINE DRIVING TO TOYOTA AND NOW THEY ARE REFUSING TO FIX BECAUSE IT WILL NOT REPEAT THE ISSUE. I TOLD THEM OF WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM ZE1 WHICH INDICATES THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR, THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO FIX STILL. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT WILL KILL SOMEONE EVENTUALLY. IF I AM IN AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY THIS ISSUE WITH TOYOTA NOT WILLING TO FIX, I WILL BE FILING LAWSUIT. GOD HELP ME BECAUSE I HAVE TWO SMALL KIDS THAT RIDE IN MY CAR OFTEN. *TR

STARTED CAR AND THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS STAYED ON AND DID NOT GO OFF. THEN WHILE DRIVING TO MY DAUGHTERS SCHOOL, AND THE SHOP I WAS GOING TO TAKE THE CAR TO, MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I PICKED UP MY DAUGHTER THEN WENT TO THE SHOP AND HAD VEHICLE CHECKED. THERE WERE HAD 5 CODES THAT COME UP. THEN WENT OUT WITH THE MECHANIC TO SEE IF THE SPEEDOMETER WAS WORKING AS HE ASKED IF I NOTICED IF IT WAS OR WAS NOT WORKING. WE TOOK CAR FOR A QUICK DRIVE TO SEE HOW CAR WAS DRIVING. THE FIRST THING I NOTICED WAS THAT THE SPEEDOMETER WAS NOT MOVING FROM ZERO. THE LIGHTS ALL STAYED ON AND THE BRAKES WERE WORKING. THE RPM GAUGE WAS STILL GOING UP AND DOWN. I DID NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO DO ANY FIXING AS OF YET SO I DECIDED TO BRING THE CAR HOME AND PARK IT UNTIL I CAN GET IT FIXED AS MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. AFTER THIS I DID SOME RESEARCH ON LINE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND THAT THE HYBRID MODEL HAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM, BUT AS OF YET THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THE 4 CYL OR THE 6 CYL WHICH IS NOT RIGHT AS THE CODES ARE THE SAME AND THE ISSUES ARE THE SAME. THE RIGHT THING TO DO WOULD BE TO RECALL ALL 2007 MODELS BEFORE THIS ISSUE CAUSES A FATAL CAR ACCIDENT. *TR

CURRENTLY I AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH MY ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COMING ON AND MY MODULE NOT READING MY SPEED, TEMPERATURE, OR RPMS CORRECTLY OR AT ALL SOME TIMES. I SPOKE WITH A TECHNICIAN THAT I HAVE GOTTEN WORK DONE WITH BEFORE AND HE TOLD ME THAT HE HAD ANOTHER CUSTOMER WITH THE SAME YEAR SAME MODEL CALL IN AND THEIR CAR WAS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. WHILE THE PEOPLE AT MY INSURANCE COMPANY TOLD ME THAT IT MAY HAVE TO DO WITH THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE AND DISMISSED MY CLAIM. HE TOLD ME THAT THE ONLY WAY THEY WOULD KNOW IS IF THEY COULD DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE AGAIN. BUT THE REPLACEMENT PARTS ARE EXPENSIVE AND I'M STARTING TO THINK IT MAY BE A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURER. *TR

WHEN I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE I NOTICED WHEN I GET TO A CERTAIN SPEED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT START TO FLASH UNTIL I SLOW DOWN OR THE VEHICLE WON'T MOVE UNTIL I PARK IT TURN IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON. SO I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE. *TR

NO OIL ON DIPSTICK, ENGINE OIL LIGHT CAME ON WHENEVER VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP. TOOK MORE THAN TWO QUARTS OF OIL TO BRING IT TO CORRECT LEVEL. *TR

DASHBOARDS MELTING AND CAUSING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT IMPAIRS DRIVING ABILITY. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE ON THE ROAD, I CANNOT SEE WHERE I AM DRIVING. MAY ALSO AFFECT DRIVERS SIDE AIR BAG BECAUSE OF DETERIORATING DASHBOARD. *TR

A "STICKY" AND CRACKING DASHBOARD FROM FLORIDA HEAT CAUSES A HUGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THIS MAKES VISIBILITY EXTREMELY LIMITED WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE NOT USED ANY CLEANING OR POLISHING PRODUCTS ON THE DASHBOARD. I AM CONVINCED IT IS JUST FROM HIGH TEMPERATURES AND HUMIDITY OVER TIME. AFTER NOTICING THE PROBLEM I TRIED TO REDUCE DIRECT SUNLIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD BY USING WINDSHIELD COVERS; HOWEVER, THE DASH STILL REMAINED "STICKY" AND THE COVERS JUST SIMPLY STUCK TO THE DASH. THE ISSUE USED TO ONLY OCCUR WHEN IT WAS HOT OUTSIDE, BUT NOW THE DASH HAS BEEN "MELTED" SO MUCH SO THAT IT HAS BECOME GLOSSY. WHICH MEANS EVEN IN COOLER TEMPERATURES THE DASH REFLECTS ANY SUNLIGHT AND CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. AGAIN, THIS ISSUE HIGHLY DECREASES VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. IT IS OFTEN DIFFICULT TO PERFORM THE EASIEST MANEUVERS SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU CANNOT SEE. I HAVE EVEN BOUGHT EXPENSIVE POLAROID SUNGLASSES TO SOMEWHAT REDUCE THE GLARE, BUT VISIBILITY IS STILL DIFFICULT. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE, BECAUSE IT CAN EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW THE BEST WAY TO HANDLE THE SITUATION. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. *TR

I STARTED TO FEEL STICKY SPOTS ON THE TOP-SIDE DASHBOARD FACING WINDSHIELD. THE SOFT, STICKY SPOTS WERE ACCUMULATING LIGHT-COLORED DUST OVER THE PAST YEAR. THEY WERE NOT GREASY, BUT EXTREMELY STICKY AND TACKY TO THE TOUCH. THE ACCUMULATED DUST WAS NOT CLEANABLE OR ABLE TO BE REMOVED WITHOUT DAMAGING DASHBOARD MATERIAL. (I RUBBED OFF THE TOP LAYER OF PLASTIC TRYING TO GENTLY CLEAN WITH A WET POLY TOWEL). THEY WERE STARTING TO REFLECT OFF MY WINDSHIELD DURING DAYTIME DRIVING. I IGNORED THIS ISSUE FOR A WHILE BUT LATELY NOTICED THE INTERIOR GLARE IS GETTING WORSE TOWARD THE FRONT OF MY DASHBOARD AT THE WINDSHIELD JUNCTION. IT'S ESPECIALLY PRESENT ON BRIGHT DAYS WHERE THE SUN IS HIGH UP. THIS IS PRESENTING A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WITH REGARDS TO OUTWARD DRIVING VISIBILITY. TOYOTA HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND I STARTED A PROBLEM CASE WITH THEM. I AM AWAITING FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT TOYOTA WANTS TO DO NEXT WITH MY VEHICLE. A SPECIAL "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT" HAS BEEN STARTED TO ADDRESS THIS "COSMETIC CONCERN." PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE TO ENSURE TOYOTA IS ADDRESSING THIS PROBLEM APPROPRIATELY AND EXPEDITIOUSLY FOR OWNERS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY IAN'S THE BRAKES FAILED TO APPLY NO PRESSURE. EMERGENCY LIGHTS TURN ONWAIT ABOUT 10 MINUTES THERE AND TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND IT STARTED WORKING AGAIN. CALL MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER SAID IT WILL COST 1500 DOLLARS TO FIX . DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR GOING TO WORK I WAS GOING 30 MPH WHEN WITH OUT ANY EXPLANATION A BRAKE RED WARNING LIGHT POP UP IN THE SCREEN ON MY 2007 TOYOTA HYBRID I TRY TO PUT THE BRAKES AND THEY WERE NOT WORKING I BEGGING TO PANIC THANKS GOD I DO NOT ENTER THE HIGHWAY AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO A MECHANIC SHOP THAT WAS VERY CLOSED. THE MECHANIC CHECK THE BRAKES IN THE CAR AND EVERY LOOKS GOOD HE SAID I TOLD HIM WHAT ARE YOU TAKING ABOUT THE BRAKES WHERE NOT WORKING I EXPLAIN AND THEN I REMEMBER A COUPLE WEEKS AGO I GOT A RECALL IN THE MAIL AND GIVE TO MECHANIC AND HE EXPLAIN TO ME THAT I HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER RIGHT AWAY. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR I CONTACT THE TOYOTA HEAD QUARTERS AND THEY SAID THEY WILL FIXED FOR FREE THE REAL ISSUE HERE IS MANY OF THIS CARS IN THE ROADS WE DRIVE ALL CHILDREN IN THESE CARS. THEY RECALL SHOULD SAY TAKE YOU CAR TO THE DEALER RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE YOU CAN INJURED YOURSELF O SOMEBODY MANY LIVES WILL BE SAFE IN THIS COMPANIES BUILT THEIR CARS PAYING MORE ATTENTION SPECIALLY TO THE BRAKES. I AM VERY CONCERN ABOUT THIS ISSUE. TODAY ALL I HAVE TO SAY I THANK GOD THAT I AM ALIVE AND I DO NOT INJURED MYSELF OR ANY OTHER PERSON. *JS

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE BRAKE PEDAL STARTED TO HAVE DIFFICULTY BRAKING. THERE WAS A THUMP OF SOME SORT IN THE FEEL OF THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN BEING DEPRESSED. THE NEXT MORNING WHEN STARTING THE CAR, THERE WAS AN ERROR MESSAGE DISPLAYED SAYING "CHECK VSC SYSTEM WITH CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM ALTERNATING. THESE MESSAGES ALONG WITH THE CHECK ENGINE, TRACTION CONTROL AND SEVERAL OTHER LIGHTS LIT UP AND REMAINED ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THIS CAR AND AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON, DANGEROUS AND EXPENSIVE PROBLEM WITH THE TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS. FROM MANY SIMILAR STORIES I HAVE READ, TOYOTA AND TOYOTA DEALERS RESPOND TO THIS ISSUE AS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND IF THEY ARE SO AWARE THERE SHOULD BE A SUITABLE RESOLUTION OFFERED ALONG WITH A RECALL FOR ALL TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID OWNERS SO OUR LIVES WILL NOT BE IN DANGER. DELAYING FIXING THIS ISSUE WILL EVENTUALLY COST SOMEONE THEIR LIFE. *TR

AS I WAS TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY THE ABS WENT OUT AND ALMOST ALL BRAKE AND STABILITY CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON AND I LOST ALMOST ALL BRAKING AND STABILITY CONTROL OF THE CAR. I WAS LATER TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR HAD GONE OUT AND NEEDED TO BE CHANGED ($1500). IT TURNS OUT THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THIS VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND ARE NOT ISSUING A RECALL. I WAS TOLD THAT THEYRE OFFERING AN WARRANTY EXTENSION IF YOU KNOW WHAT TO ASK FOR SINCE THEY DON'T VOLUNTEER THE INFORMATION. I CAN'T STRESS HOW DANGEROUS OF A SITUATION THIS HAS LEFT ME WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS. IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT NOBODY IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. HERE'S ALSO A REPORT BY CONSUMER REPORTS MAGAZINE FROM JULY 2014 THAT OUTLINES THE ISSUE: HTTP://WWW.CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/CRO/NEWS/2014/07/WHY-TOYOTA-SHOULD-RECALL-THE-CAMRY-HYBRID/INDEX.HTM. *TR

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WAS NOTICED IN THIS VEHICLE AROUND DECEMBER 2014. THE DEALER REFUSES TO DEAL WITH IT CONSIDERING 1 QUART FOR EVERY 1,000 MILES IS NORMAL. *TR

WE BOUGHT THIS BRAND NEW 2007 CAMRY FROM DEALER BACK IN 2006. IT HAS BEEN MAINTAINED THROUGH TOYOTA DEALERS (LONGO TOYOTA MOST OF TIME) SINCE THEN. IN JAN 2012, THE ENGINE SOUNDED ABNORMAL. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS OIL "LEAKING" AND THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. WE PAID OUT OF OWN POCKET TO FIX THE "OIL LEAKING" AS SUGGESTED BY THE DEALER, BUT THE OIL STILL KEEPS DISAPPEARING AFTER AROUND 2000 MILES' DRIVING. NOW IT IS GETTING WORSE AND WORSE, I HAVE TO CHECK OIL LEVEL AND ADD 1 QUART EVERY 500 MILES! *TR

UPON ENTERING MY VEHICLE I FOUND THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED AND UNABLE TO RETRACT OR BE PULLED FORWARD. I CONTACTED A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, CHICAGO NORTHSIDE TOYOTA, AND MADE A SERVICE APPT FOR THAT AFTERNOON. SHORTLY BEFORE ARRIVING AT THE DEALERSHIP THE SEAT BELT SUDDENLY UNLOCKED AND WAS MOVABLE AGAIN. UPON INSPECTION, THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS FRAYING ON THE SEAT BELT, AND THAT WAS THE CAUSE FOR THE INABILITY FOR THE SEATBELT TO RETRACT OR MOVE. NONE OF THIS FRAYING HE REFERRED TO IS VISIBLE TO ME, SO I PRESUME IT IS HIDDEN INSIDE THE PANEL WHICH COVERS THE SEAT BELT MECHANISM. I PRESUME THIS WAS CAUSED BY AN INTERNAL MECHANISM AND I SUSPECT IS A DESIGN DEFECT. TOYOTA WILL NOT HONOR ANY WARRANTY FOR SEAT BELT REPLACEMENT AFTER 5 YRS OR 50,000 MILES, WHICH NO LONGER APPLIES TO MY VEHICLE, AND IS CHARGING ME $453 TO REPLACE THE SEAT BELT AS A RESULT OF WHAT I BELIEVE IS A DEFECT FOR AN ESSENTIAL SAFETY RESTRAINT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. *TR

SUDDENLY,THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM WENT ON FOR NO REASON.I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA IS TO BLAME FOR THE CONDITION BECAUSE THE CAR IS FAILING PREMATURELY.TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE THIS CAN CAUSE DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS IN THE CAR AS WELL AS PEDESTRIANS ALIKE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY.

2007 CAMRY XLE. THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND APPEARS TO BE MELTING. SMALL PIECES OF THE DASH HAVE COME OFF AND THERE IS GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE DASH ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAMRY WHEN I REACHED A COMPLETE STOP MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, DIDN'T REALLY NOTICE ANY CHANGE, TWO DAYS LATER I NOTICE GAS CONSUMPTION HAS INCREASED. I TOOK THE CAMRY INTO DEALER, DEALER DIAGNOSED THE CHECK ENGINE TO BE A FAULTY O2 SENSOR. REPLACED O2 SENSOR AND DROVE OFF TO PICK UP MY KIDS FROM SCHOOL, AS WE ARE DRIVING HOME, I CAME TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT, I STOPPED AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON IDLE WAS DISRUPTED BRIEFLY. I PROCEEDED AND WHEN TRYING TO STOP CAR THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD BECOME VERY TIGHT TO WERE I HAD TO STOMP ON BRAKES WITH ALL MY MIGHT TO GET CAR TO STOP. DROP KIDS OFF AT HOME WAITED 15 MINUTES AND STARTED VEHICLE, ABS LIGHT WAS OFF BUT CHECK ENGINE REMAINED ON, BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALMOST BACK TO NORMAL. I DROVE CAR TO DEALER AGAIN, THE DEALER SAID IT IS A FAULTY BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH IS ALLOWING TOO MUCH AIR INTO SYSTEM WHICH IN RETURN SIGNALS FOR MORE FUEL TO BE PUMPED TO COMPENSATE VACUUM LEAK. BRAKE BOOSTER NOT COVERED UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY, AND VERY COSTLY 1,363.16 PARTS, LABOR AND TAXES, NOT COUNTING THE 4 DAY RENTAL. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE, IF IT WERE MY WIFE DRIVING THE CAMRY WITH MY KIDS SHE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WITHOUT ANY WARNING. TOYOTA NEEDS TO MAKE THIS A SAFETY RECALL BEFORE SOMETHING TRAGIC HAPPENS. I LOOKED AT TOYOTA FORUMS AND IT SEEMS I'M NOT ALONE, BRAKE BOOSTER FOR SEVERAL OTHER TOYOTA MODELS HAVE GONE BAD, AFTER 100,000 MILES SOME AT 70,000. 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SEEMS LIKE A HORRIBLE GUINEA PIG CAR. *TR

SUN VISOR ON DRIVERS SIDE DETACHED WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. ALMOST CAUSING A ACCIDENT. SUN VISOR ON PASSENGER SIDE IS ROTATED DOWNWARD BLOCKING FIELD OF VISION. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS LITERALLY MELTING AWAY.THERE IS A HORRIBLE STICKY, GOOEY SUBSTANCE THAT IS OOZING OUT OF THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD.YOU CANNOT TOUCH OR CLEAN IT, AND WHEN DRIVING IN THE DIRECT SUN, IT CREATES SUCH A REFLECTION ON THE WINDOW THAT YOU CAN HARDLY SEE. I HAVE APPROACHED TOYOTA ON THIS ISSUE SEVERAL TIMES, ONLY TO BE TOLD THAT THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS AND THAT THE REASON THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING IS BECAUSE I LIVE IN TEXAS AUSTIN. *TR

DRIVER WAS PASSING ANOTHER CAR AT ~65MPH AND WHEN THE DRIVER TOOK HIS FOOT OFF THE GAS THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. DRIVER APPLIED THE BRAKES, WHICH SLOWED THE CAR SOME, BUT NOT SUFFICIENTLY AGAINST THE ENGINE (NOW CLOSE TO FULL THROTTLE). DRIVER THEN IMMEDIATELY PUT THE ENGINE INTO NEUTRAL, HOWEVER THIS DID NOT DISENGAGE THE ENGINE. DRIVER WAS THEN FORCED TO USE THE IGNITION TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND FINALLY IT STARTED COSTING TO A STOP WHILE IN NEUTRAL. ASSUMING IT WAS SOME TRANSIENT FAULT, THE DRIVER THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE WHILE COASTING IN NEUTRAL AND THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BEGAN ACCELERATING AGAIN, DRIVER THEN AGAIN IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE IGNITION TO BRING THE CAR TO A STOP. *TR

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HILL ABOUT 5MPH BECAUSE IT WAS SNOWING AND THERE WERE CARS INFRONT OF ME. I WAS SLOWLY PRESSING THE BRAKE AND THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL GOT STUCK AND I COULDN'T CONTROL THE BRAKE, THE WHEELS HAD LOCKED TO AND I KEPT ON SLIDING AND I WENT HEAD ON IN AN SUV. CAR IS TOTALED AND I SUSTAINED NECK, BACK, KNEE, AND SHOULDER INJURIES. AND ALSO I DON'T KNOW IF THERE WAS A FIRE BUT AFTER THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED THERE WAS A LOT OF SMOKE COMING FROM EVERYWHERE. *TR

THE ACCELERATOR WOULD NOT WORK EVEN WITH ACCELERATION. THE ENGINE IS ON BUT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULD NOT WORK. *TR

STARTED THE CAR AND NOTICED THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE LIGHT WERE ON. TACHOMETER WAS JUMPING BETWEEN 0 AND 1000RPM. AIR CONDITIONER WASN'T WORKING. DROVE THE CAR A BIT WITH NO CHANGE EXCEPT THE TACHOMETER JUMPING A BIT HIGHER THAN 1 AND DROPPING BACK TO 0. SPEEDOMETER WOULDN'T MOVE AT ALL. AFTER A BIT MORE DRIVING, THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE LIGHTS TURNED OFF AND THE GAUGES RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. AIR CONDITIONER ALSO STARTED WORKING. SINCE THIS INITIAL PROBLEM, THE GAUGES AND LIGHTS HAVE BEEN OPERATING WITH THE SAME INCONSISTENCY (JUMPING TACHOMETER, SPEEDOMETER SITTING AT 0, ABS AND PARKING BRAKE LIGHTS ON).

APPROX MID JANUARY 2014 WHILE GOING DOWN THE HWY ABOUT 40 MILES FROM HOME MY VSC LIGHT CAME ON AND I LOST ALMOST ALL THE USE OF MY BRAKES, WHICH REALLY FRIGHTEN ME. I AM SINGLE AND HAVE NO FAMILY AROUND TO HELP. I GOT OFF THE HWY AND WENT VERY SLOW. THE LIGHT WENT OFF BEFORE I GOT HOME AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANOTHER PROBLEM WITH IT UNTIL DEC 2014 WHILE GOING TO WORK. THE LIGHT CAME ON AND OFF TWICE BEFORE I GOT TO WORK AND I LOST BRAKES USE. THEN IT HAPPEN AGAIN FIRST WEEK JAN. 2015. IT HAS HAPPEN TWICE RECENTLY AND I'M GETTING WORRIED ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR. YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT MIGHT HAPPEN AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. I LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET AND SAW QUITE A FEW OTHER PEOPLE WERE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE IT FIXED. I HOPE YOUR INVESTIGATION CAN HELP CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GET HURT OR WORSE KILLED. I HAS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE IF THIS MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

AS I WAS ON A 2-HOUR DRIVE TO MEET MY BROTHERS FOR THE APPOINTMENT TO ENTER MY ELDERLY MOTHER INTO ASSISTED LIVING ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASH LIT UP. I WAS AFRAID TO CONTINUE SO I STOPPED AT THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE IF IT WAS SAFE TO KEEP GOING. THEY SAID IT WAS THE BRAKE FILTER RESERVOIR ASSEMBLY AND THAT I SHOULD NOT CONTINUE ON THE TRIP UNTIL IT WAS REPLACED. THEY DID REPLACE IT AT NO COST. I WAS UNABLE TO MAKE IT TO MY MOTHER'S ASSISTED LIVING APPOINTMENT, LEAVING MY BROTHERS "HOLDING THE BAG." ONE MONTH LATER, ON OCTOBER 9, 2014, I WAS AGAIN TRAVELING AT 55 MPH WHEN ALL OF THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS LIT UP AGAIN. SINCE I WAS NOT FAR FROM HOME I TURNED AROUND AND PARKED MY CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY UNTIL I COULD MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP. UPON EXAMINATION AT THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY. THEY SAID THAT THE DIAGNOSTIC CODES THAT CAME UP WERE NOT EVEN SOMETHING THEY HAD SEEN BEFORE AND THEY HAD TO GET THEM INTERPRETED BY TOYOTA. THEIR EXPLANATION WAS THAT THE "BRAINS" OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM HAD GONE BAD AND IT WOULD BE A VERY COSTLY EXPENSE. THEY DID WORK WITH ME, ACCEPTED A COUPON THAT I HAD, COPPED A LOANER VEHICLE, AND REPLACED THE ACTUATOR AT A COST OF $1755.27. NOW I GET A LETTER IN THE MAIL SAYING THAT THERE IS A "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM." WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO ASK ABOUT REIMBURSEMENT FOR THESE CHARGES I WAS TOLD I WOULD NEED TO TAKE MY VEHICLE IN AGAIN FOR AN INSPECTION. SINCE IT'S AN HOUR DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT SEEMS IT'S BECOMING AN ALMOST MONTHLY TRIP FOR SOMETHING OR OTHER, I'M NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. TOYOTA NEEDS TO GET IT TOGETHER!!! *TR

DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING. *JS

THE DASHBOARD OF OUR 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING. THERE HAVE BEEN NO CHEMICALS USED ON THE DASHBOARD WHAT SO EVER. IT HAS ALWAYS ONLY BEEN CLEANED WITH WATER. THE MELTING IS PRONOUNCED MORE AS THE DASHBOARD NEARS THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD. IT IS NOW VERY STICKY AND IS COMPLETELY RUINED. MOST IMPORTANTLY, SINCE MELTING, IT HAS BECOME VERY SHINY. IT CREATES A HORRIBLE GLARE OF BRIGHT SUNLIGHT DIRECTLY INTO YOUR EYES AS YOU DRIVE. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. IT IS ALMOST LIKE A MIRROR DIRECTLY ON TOP OF YOUR DASH. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT. THEY STATE THE DASH WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT MY EXPENSE. I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS FROM OTHER CAMRY OWNER'S WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. PLEASE HELP. *JS

STARTED THE CAR AND THE "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT IMMEDIATELY CAME ON. ALSO, IN THE MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY AT THE CENTER OF THE SPEEDOMETER, THE MESSAGE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" APPEARED. I THOUGHT MAYBE MY PARKING BRAKE WAS CAUSING A PROBLEM, SO I ENGAGED AND DISENGAGED THAT. THEN I TRIED TO DRIVE THE CAR. THE BRAKE PEDAL BEHAVES AS IF THERE IS NO BRAKE-ASSIST. I JAM IT TO THE FLOOR TO GET MINIMAL BRAKING. I DROVE SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY HOME IN THIS CONDITION. IN SUBSEQUENT TRIPS (OVER THE LAST TWO DAYS) I HAVE ONLY SEEN THIS AGAIN ONE MORE TIME. WHEN THE SYSTEM DOES NOT REPORT THE PROBLEM, THE BRAKES WORK FINE. AND IN THAT ONE CASE WHERE THE PROBLEM RE-APPEARED, I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN A FEW TIMES, UNTIL THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARED. I HAVE NOT SEEN THE PROBLEM BEGIN WHILE I AM DRIVING -- ONLY WHEN I AM STARTING THE CAR. HOWEVER, I'VE NOW SEEN OTHERS DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM AS BEGINNING DURING DRIVING, SO I WILL BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL AND GET THE CAR TO THE DEALER ASAP. *JS

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR UNEXPECTEDLY FALLS AND OBSCURES LINE OF SIGHT. THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. DURING AN INTERNET SEARCH REGARDING THIS ISSUE, IT CAME TO LIGHT THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE AS MANY CUSTOMERS HAVE HAD THE SAME COMPLAINT. INSTEAD OF A SAFETY RECALL ON THIS, TOYOTA DECIDED TO EXTEND A WARRANTY TO 7 YEARS ON THIS ISSUE BUT DID NOT INFORM IT'S CUSTOMER BASE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT, I DID NOT DISCOVER THIS WARRANTY EXTENSION UNTIL 3 MONTHS AFTER THEIR WARRANTY EXTENSION EXPIRED. TOYOTA IS NOT WILLING TO EXTEND THE COVERAGE AND FEELS THAT THEY HAVE FOLLOWED PROPER PROCEDURES. I COULD NOT DISAGREE MORE. I WAS USING MY WIFE'S CAR THIS WEEKEND, DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, MAKING A LANE CHANGE AT 65 MPH, WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE VISOR FLIPPED DOWN. MY IMMEDIATE REACTION WAS BRAKES... AND THANKFULLY ALL WAS OKAY. IN MY OPINION, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE HANDLED AS A RECALL, NOT AS A CUSTOMER WARRANTY EXTENSION. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS STRUCK BY ANOTHER VEHICLE IN THE REAR WHEEL ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE THEN MADE IMPACT WITH AN IRON FENCE HEAD ON BUT THE FRONT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS MELTED AND IS VERY STICKY. IT IS EASILY DAMAGED JUST BY LIGHTLY BUMPING IT. ALSO, THE GLARE FROM THE DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. SINCE I DRIVE TO WORK FACING THE SUN AND DRIVE HOME FACING THE SUN, THE COMMUTE IS VERY DIFFICULT, TIRESOME, AND DANGEROUS. PLEASE ADVISE ME HOW TO RECTIFY THIS PROBLEM. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. SUN VISOR WAS NOT TIGHT AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN. THE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT STAY IN PLACE, AND EVENTUALLY IT DROPPED DOWN IN THE CONSUMERS VIEW. *TA

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CAUGHT FIRE SPONTANEOUSLY. *MW THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. *JB

THE FOLLOWING TAKES PLACE INTERMITTENTLY AT TIMES: SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER FALL TO ZERO WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEED, ENGINE VIBRATES WHEN SITTING AT IDLE, INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIGHTS UP WITH MULTIPLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS/ABS LIGHTS, ETC., A/C CUTS OUT (DOESN'T PRODUCE COLD AIR) AND BRAKES FEEL COMPROMISED. TOYOTA HAS BEEN NOTIFIED ABOUT MY ISSUE AND OTHERS, BUT STANDS BY NOT ADDRESSING THIS EPIDEMIC, THE WEB IS PLAGUED WITH THIS VEHICLE TYPE AND THEIR OWNERS DESCRIBING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS (+ COUNTLESS OTHERS WHO DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES, TIME OR INSIGHT TO COMPLAIN), ONLY TO LEARN THEY WILL HAVE TO COUGH UP $2200 - $3400 (PARTS/LABOR) TO REPLACE A FAULTY ABS MODULE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, NOT HAVING A MEASURE OF SPEED WHILE YOU'RE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD, BRAKES FEELING UNEASY - NOT TO MENTION THE POSSIBILITY OF INCURRING TRAFFIC VIOLATIONS. THERE ARE ISSUES WITH THIS MODEL VEHICLE FLOATING AROUND THE WEB WITH AS LITTLE AS 53K MILES ON IT. IT IS VERY SELFISH AND IRRESPONSIBLE FOR TOYOTA TO TURN THEIR HEAD FROM THIS ISSUE...PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE ON STEROIDS...ANYTHING FOR A BUCK UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT, OR EVEN WORSE... *TR

I STARTING NOTICING THAT MY DASHBOARD WAS GETTING STICKY THE BEGINNING OF 2014, IT STARTING GETTING WORSE OVER E FOLLOWING MONTHS, I WENT ONLINE AND NOTICED THAT OTHER PEOPLE WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE MELTING DASHBOARDS ON THE CAMRY SO I WROTE TO THE COMPANY NUMEROUS TIMES, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT T WAS PAST THE WARRANTY AND THAT THEY WOULD DO NOTHING ABOUT IT, AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED. I SEE IS AS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT THEY KNEW ABOUT BUT WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, I REFUSE TO PAY THE RIDICULOUS AMOUNT THAT IT WOULD NEED TO BE FIXED. THE SURFACE IS VERY SHINY AND THERE IS A BAD REFLECTION WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE, I HAD A GPS HOLDER ON THE DASH AND IT FELL OFF AND PULLED OFF SOME OF THE DASH WITH IT. I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT THIS AND FEEL THAT TOYOTA SHOULD FIX THIS. *TR

WHEN SUN COMES OUT THE DASH BOARD GETS SHINY AND AND OILY. THE REFLECTION OF THE SUN'S RAYS FROM THE OILY SURFACE OF THE DASH BOARD MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. THE VISIBILITY IS QUITE REDUCED AND IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH SUCH POOR VIEW OF THE ROAD IN FRONT. WHEN TAKEN TO THE TOYOTA DEALER IN BRADENTON, FL. HE SAYS HE HAS NOT SEEN ANY DASH BOARD LIKE THAT.

FIRST EXPERIENCED PULSING BRAKES WHEN SLOWING ON HIGHWAY. AT APPROX. 12,000 MILES RETURNED TO DEALER HAD ROTORS RESURFACED. SAME THING HAPPENED AT 25,000 MILES AND JUST ABOUT EVERY 15,000 MILES. HAD ROTORS AND PADS REPLACED AT APPROX. 36,000 MILES, AND RESURFACED AGAIN AT APPROX. 60,000. NOW HAVE 78, 000 MILES AND HAVE TO HAVE THIRD SET OF ROTORS. THIS WILL BE THE FIFTH BRAKE REPAIR IN 78,000 MILES, EITHER PADS, RESURFACING, OR ROTORS. YES, TOYOTA HAS A CAMRY BRAKE PROBLEM.

DASHBOARD OF THIS CAR HAS BEEN MELTED, WHICH ALSO GIVES TROUBLE IN VISIBILTY. AND I BELIEVE POOR VISIBILITY WAS THE REASON BEHIND A CRASH AT 2 WAY STOP SIGN. AND IT MAY CAUSE PROBLEM IN FUTURE AS WELL. IT REALLY NEED A RECALL. OR REPLACEMENT WITH REASONABLE COST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY. ADDITIONALLY, THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD WAS FRACTURED AND SPREADING TO THE DRIVER SIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE AND AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A LOUD BANG SOUND AND SMOKE APPEARED UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 127,000.

AT HIGHER SPEED BRAKES VIBRATE HORRIBLY WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS PUSHED AND CAR IS ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE. NOW IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME AT ANY SPEEDS OVER 40-50MPH. *TR

I WAS GETTING OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. I STARTED TO DECELERATE AND I LOST A MAJORITY OF MY BRAKE POWER. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON MY DASH CAME ON, AND MY DISPLAY SAID CHECK VSC SYSTEM. I PULLED ONTO THE SHOULDER WAS SLAMMING ON MY BRAKE SINCE I HAD VERY LITTLE BRAKE POWER AT THIS POINT. I TURNED OFF MY CAR AND TURNED IT BACK ON SEVERAL TIMES. THE LIGHTS STAYED ILLUMINATED. I WAS 1/2 A MILE FROM WORK AT THIS POINT. I DROVE WITH MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND TOOK IT SLOW TO WORK. WHEN I GOT TO WORK AND PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT, THE LIGHTS WENT OFF. *TR

WE WERE ON A TRIP FROM NY TO ATLANTA, GA LAST THANKSGIVING AND SOMEWHERE IN NORTH CAROLINA, THE CAR EMITTED A WARNING PING, AND A NUMBER OF LIGHTS ON THE DASH, INCLUDING BRAKES, CHECK ENGINE, VCS AND A YELLOW TRIANGLE, ILLUMINATED. A MESSAGE ON THE DISPLAY READ "CHECK ABS". AT THE SAME TIME THE BRAKES BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO ACTUATE AND I FELT AS THOUGH I HAD TO PUT ALL MY EFFORT INTO ACTIVATING THE CAR'S BRAKES. WE PULLED INTO A REST STOP AND AS WE BEGAN TO SLOW, THE LIGHTS WENT OUT. JUST BEFORE WE GOT TO A PARKING SPOT HOWEVER, THE SAME THING OCCURRED. WE LET THE CAR SIT FOR A WHILE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO MOVE TO TURN IT ON AGAIN, AT WHICH POINT, THINGS SEEMED NORMAL. IT HAPPENED ONCE OR TWICE AGAIN ON THE TRIP THERE, BUT DIDN'T OCCUR AT ALL ON THE WAY BACK NOR THROUGHOUT 2014... UNTIL NOW. RECENTLY THE SAME THING HAS BEGUN HAPPENING WITH MORE REGULARITY. WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A DIAGNOSIS TODAY. WHILE RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, I NOTICED THAT THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED PREVIOUSLY, SO I DECIDED TO ADD MY VOICE TO THE MASSES. *TR

TOYOTA HYBRIDS HAVE A BRAKING DEVICE IN THE TRANSMISSION. THIS DEVICE CAN BE APPLIED AT ANY TIME. WHEN USING THE TRANSMISSION BRAKE THE VEHICLES SPEED IS REDUCED AT A CONSIDERABLE RATE. WHEN BRAKING USING THIS METHOD THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON. THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE VEHICLE IS BRAKING. I USE THIS METHOD ON A ROUTINE BASIS AND WAS INFORMED OF NO BRAKE LIGHTS BY ANOTHER DRIVER. I USE THIS SYSTEM OF BRAKING WHILE GOING DOWNHILLS IN THE CITY AND DRIVING IN THE MOUNTAINS. *TR

DROPPING MY KID OFF AT SCHOOL ONE MORNING AND IT WAS VERY SUNNY. WE WERE LATE THAT MORNING SO A SCHOOL ATTENDANT CLOSED ONE SIDE OF THE GATE. THE SUN WAS VERY BRIGHT AND BECAUSE MY DASH IS MELTING, THE SUN BUT A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS ABLE TO SEE THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE GATE WAS OPEN BUT I WASN'T ABLE TO SEE THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE GATE WAS CLOSED (LARGE GLARE ON WINDSHIELD). I WAS ABLE TO MAKE OUT THAT THERE WERE NO CHILDREN AROUND TO PROCESS TO GO THROUGH THE GATE BUT COULDN'T CONFIRM THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF GATE WAS CLOSED. DRIVER SIDE OF GATE WAS OPEN SO I NEVER WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THE OTHER SIDE WOULD BE CLOSED. PUT A BIG DINT IN MY CAR BY PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WINDOW. I EVEN HAD SUNSHADES ON. TOOK ALL PERCUSSIONS OTHER THAN GETTING OUT OF CAR TO LOOK. DIDN'T THINK IT WAS SOMETHING MANDATORY FOR ME TO DO. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA SEVERAL TIMES BECAUSE OF THE MELTING DASHBOARD EVEN BEFORE THE ACCIDENT. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY TOYOTA CAMRY IS VERY STICKY AND SHINY AND IT REFLECTS A SHINY SHADOW WHEN THE SUN OR NIGHT LIGHTS HIT IT. IT CAUSES A REFLECTION AND IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING GLARE INTO FRONT WINDSHIELD. *TR

VEHICLE LEAKS OR BURNS OIL IN EXCESS FROM UNKNOWN LOCATION OR UNDISCLOSED LOCATION BY MANUFACTURER. NO OIL VISIBLE ON GROUND UNDERNEATH CAR . ENGINE WAS NOT GETTING ADEQUATE LUBRICATION DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND THUS CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE ON FREEWAY AND HAD TO BE PULLED OVER PUTTING VEHICLE OWNER AT RISK AND OTHER DRIVERS ON ROAD IN DANGER. THE ENGINE IS NOW DAMAGED AND IS UNABLE TO BE REPAIRED DESPITE PROPER MAINTENANCE AND RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGES AS PER DEALERSHIP AND OWNERS MANUAL. THE ENGINE NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS LEAKAGE HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OVER HUNDREDS OF UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS AND HAS PURPOSELY BEEN DISREGARDED BY MANUFACTURER DESPITE THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS RECEIVED AND MADE BY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS. MANY OF WHICH SUFFERED LIKE THIS OWNER AND HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A NEW ENGINE DESPITE THIS BEING A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT HAS BEEN NEGLECTED. *TR

I OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND MY DASHBOARD IS ALL STICKY AND SHINY...TRIED TO GO TO THE DEALER...AND DEALER CLAIMED IT'S NOT A RECALL...ALL THE DUST, DIRT AND DEBRIS FROM THE OUTSIDE HAS STUCK (HARBORED) RIGHT ONTO MY STICKY DASHBOARD, I HAVE TRIED UNSUCCESSFULLY TO CLEAN IT BUT ALL ELEMENTS GETS STUCK ONTO DASHBOARD....WITH ALL THIS BEING SAID, I BELIEVE THIS HAS CAUSED SOME BREATHING ISSUES FOR ME WHEN I DRIVE. (I HAVE SEVERE ALLERGIES)...SO YES IN THIS CASE, IT CERTAINLY WARRANTS A HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERN. I WOULD LIKE TO ESCALATE THIS ISSUE. THANKS, *TR

I REPORTED THE STICKY DASH PROBLEM TO DEALERSHIP AT ABOUT 60,000 MILES IN 09 ALONG WITH THE STEERING WHEEL MATERIAL FALLING APART. THIS PROBLEM HAS ONLY GOTTEN WORSE TO THE POINT WHERE MY DASH IS CREATING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR ORIGINAL OWNERS AS THIS CAN BE A SAFETY HAZARD. FULL RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATORY . BUT IF OWNER HAS TO PAY IT SHOULD BE VERY LITTLE . MAYBE LIKE 500 INSTEAD OF THE 1800$ QUOTE I GOT FROM THE DEALERSHIP . I'VE OWNED OTHER CARS IN FLORIDA AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM . I'M KINDA DISAPPOINTED THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THIS WILL AFFECT MY BUYING DECISION IN THE FUTURE UNLESS THEY FIX IT SINCE THIS WILL AFFECT MY TRADE IN VALUE. *TR

WHEN TOGGLED, PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW OPENS WITH A BANG. NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES THE WINDOW IS RAISED OR LOWERED SUBSEQUENTLY, THIS NOISE WILL NOT REOCCUR AGAIN UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 24 HOURS LATER. *TR

THE DASH OF MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA BEGAN TO MELT AND CRACK IN 2012, CREATING AN EXTREMELY STICKY SURFACE AS WELL AS A SEVERE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAS CONTINUED TO WORSEN OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS. THE STICKINESS AND GLARE WORSEN WITH HIGH TEMPERATURES WHICH IS A CRITICAL ISSUE WHEN LIVING IN FLORIDA. EVEN WHEN I TRAVEL TO NORTHERN STATES IN THE WINTER, THE STICKINESS AND SEVERE GLARE DOES NOT COMPLETELY GO AWAY IN FREEZING TEMPERATURES. I CAN GENTLY TOUCH MY DASH AND LEAVE A FINGER IMPRINT AT ANY TIME OF THE YEAR AND IN ANY TEMPERATURE. THE GLARE GREATLY REDUCES THE DRIVER'S VISIBILITY AT ANY TIME OF THE YEAR HOWEVER, DURING THE HOTTEST MONTHS OF THE YEAR THE GLARE IS SO SEVERE THAT IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WHAT IS AHEAD. I HAVE NEARLY BEEN IN ACCIDENTS AND HAVE COME CLOSE TO HITTING PEDESTRIANS IN PARKING LOTS BECAUSE OF THE SEVERE GLARE. I HAVE RESORTED TO "BOBBING AND WEAVING" TO FIND AN AREA OF THE WINDSHIELD I CAN SEE THROUGH (TYPICALLY A ONE-INCH AREA WHERE THE AIR VENT IS REFLECTING VERY LOW ON THE WINDSHIELD) OR EVEN ROLLING DOWN THE SIDE WINDOW TO STICK MY HEAD OUT DURING SITUATIONS SUCH AS THESE. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THAT THIS WILL CONTINUE TO WORSEN WITH TIME. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE RECTIFIED IMMEDIATELY! THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURS! *JS

I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 35 MPH WHEN ALL OF MY BRAKE, SLIP INDICATOR AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND LOOKED IT UP IN MY OWNER'S MANUAL. THERE, IT TOLD ME TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER. I WAS 40 MILES FROM HOME SO I PROCEEDED TO GO BACK TO THE HOSPITAL TO PICK UP MY BOYFRIEND. I GOT LESS THAN A MILE DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THE MASTER WARNING LIGHT AND AN ALARM CAME ON. AGAIN I PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. THE MANUAL TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY. AT THE DEALERSHIP I FOUND THAT THERE WAS A "LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN" ON A FILTER THAT CONNECTS THE CHAMBERS IN THE BRAKE RESERVOIR. IT WAS REPLACED AND I DIDN'T HAVE ANOTHER ISSUE UNTIL 11/26/14. AGAIN, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS AND ALARM CAME ON AND I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THERE, I WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR HAD FAILED AND IT WOULD BE OVER $1500 TO REPLACE. LUCKILY, I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THIS IS ALSO BEING COVERED BY TOYOTA UNDER A "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT" PROGRAM. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT WHEN DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE SWERVED FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 135,000.

DASHBOARD MELTS, GET STICKY, SHINY AND REFLECTS HIGH GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD PREVENTING CLEAR SIGHT TO ROAD. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE HEADLIGHT GO OUT. IF I TURN THEM OFF THEN BACK ON THEY COME ON. SOME TIMES THIS HAPPENS EVERY MINUTE OR SO AND SOMETIME THEY WORK FINE. I HAVE REPLACED THE LEFT LOW BEAM THINKING I HAD A BAD LIGHT. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE FIXED BY THE MANUFACTURE. *TR

ABS ACTUATOR PUMP ASSEMBLY PROBLEM. 89000 MILES ON CAR 2007 CAMRY HYBRID VSC CONTROL WARNING COMES ON. THE DEALER SAID I NEEDED NEW BRAKES. GOT NEW BRAKES AND STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES. WHEN BACKING UP THE BRAKES LOCK AND THE CAR JERKS AS IF THE BRAKES WERE HIT HARD. THE NEW BRAKES ALSO ARE MAKING THE SAME NOISE AS THE ORIGINAL BRAKES. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE FOR MYSELF AND MY GRANDCHILDREN WHO ARE WITH ME IN THIS CAR. *TR

I WAS DRIVING AT ~35 MPH TOWARD AN INTERSECTION OF STOPPED CARS. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO BEGIN TO STOP. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT SOFT AND PUSHED TO THE FLOOR, WITH LITTLE OR NO SLOWING OF THE VEHICLE. AT THE SAME TIME THE DASHBOARD LIT UP A LOT OF WARNING LIGHTS, I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO CHECK THE WARNING LIGHTS. I SWERVED INTO THE TURN LANE WHERE THERE WERE NO CARS AND BEGAN TO MAKE A WIDE LEFT. I AGAIN BEGAN TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THIS TIME THE BRAKES WORKED. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND PARKED. THE WARNING SCREEN SAID SOMETHING LIKE "CHECK VCS SYSTEM". "BRAKES" WARNING LIGHT AND "ABS" WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED WITH OTHERS WHICH I DID NOT TAKE NOTE OF. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND CALLED FOR A TOW TO THE TOYOTA DEALER. TURNING THE VEHICLE ON AGAIN SHOWED NO WARNINGS. *TR

"MELTING" DASHBOARD IN HEAT IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. IT GETS STICKY LIKE DUCT TAPE AND ULTIMATELY WEAKENS AND RUINS THE UPHOLSTERY ON THE DASH. TOYOTA NEEDS TO STEP UP AND CORRECT THIS ISSUE. IT'S A SERIOUS ONE. *TR

MY DASHBOARD WAS GETTING STICKY, GUMMY AND DISINTEGRATING. WHEN THE SUN SHINES ON IT ,THERE IS A GLARE WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. IT IS NOT SAFETY TO DRIVE. *TR

DRIVING ON THE ROAD, EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL, THEN MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP WITH ALL THE WARNING SIGNS. THE INTERNAL CAR DISPLAYS VSC MAINTENANCE REQUIRED, AND I'M THINKING I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. I JUST GOT THE CAR THIS YEAR. THERE SHOULDN'T BE A PROBLEM LIKE THIS. THE BRAKES WERE VERY HARD TO PRESS DOWN ON TO EVEN BRAKE. I FEE LIKE THE BRAKES JUST STOPPED WORKING OR THE BRAKE ITSELF WOULD LET ME BRAKE AS NORMAL. LITTLE SHOCKED BECAUSE I'D HAD CRASH INTO THE DRIVER IN FRONT OF ME. I STARTED TO DRIVE VERY SLOW. THEN THE LIGHTS AND WARNING SIGNS WENT AWAY, AND MY BRAKES WERE BACK TO NORMAL. I FELT LIKE IT WAS JUST A COMPUTER GLITCH AND STARTED TO DRIVE NORMALLY AGAIN. AFTER I DID, THE CAR AGAIN WENT OFF WITH THE WARNING SIGNS ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE VSC DISPLAY WAS ON AGAIN STATING MAINTENANCE WAS REQUIRED ONE AGAIN. SO I STARTED TO DRIVE SLOW ONCE AGAIN. WENT TO A REPAIR SHOP THEY SAID MY BRAKES WERE GOOD, AND THAT THE CAR PROBABLY NEEDED TO GET IT CHECK BECAUSE OF THE HYBRID SYSTEM. THIS ONLY HAPPEN DURING THE SUMMER. DURING THE WINTER IT GOES OFF, TO WHICH I STILL FELT LIKE IT WAS A COMPUTER GLITCH. WENT TO THE DEALER RECENTLY AND THEY SAID THAT MY ACCUMULATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACE. I ASKED HOW DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS OCCUR. THE MECHANIC STATED SOMEWHERE IN THE LINES OF IT'S A MAN MADE PART SO IT'S CAN HAPPEN FROM TIME TO TIME. BUT IN MY OPINION, IF I DID EVERYTHING LIKE I WAS SUPPOSE TO DO, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. THE TOTAL REPAIR FOR THE PART IS $1892! THAT'S WITH LABOR INCLUDED! SERIOUSLY, WHY DOES A PART THAT IS SO IMPORTANT TO THE CAR THAT EXPENSIVE?! AND WHY DOESN'T TOYOTA REPORT ON THIS TECHNICAL ISSUE FOR THEIR CARS? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THE DASH BOARD DEVELOPED A STICKY SUBSTANCE THAT RESULTED IN A GLARE REFLECTION. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS.

THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

I HAVE 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CE. A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO I NOTICED THAT MY DASHBOARD WAS GETTING STICKY, GUMMY AND DISINTEGRATING. I HAVE ALMOST 110,000 MILES ON IT. I WANT TOYOTA TO FIX THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT SINCE ITS GETTING VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE ON A SUNNY DAY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE ODOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER BECAME INOPERABLE AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ONCE.

MELTS IN THE SUN SO.SOFT A FINGERNAIL WILL DAMAGE IT WITH JUST A SIMPLE BRUSH. CANNOT CLEAN BECAUSE OF HOW SOFT IT GETS. CREATES A GLARE WHICH CAUSES BLINDSPOTS. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ALL BRAKE LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASH, "VSC CHECK SYSTEM" MESSAGE SHOWED. BUT THE CAR SEEMED TO BRAKE FINE, UNTIL I WENT TO PARK. THE BRAKE WENT COMPLETELY SOFT AND THE CAR CONTINUED FORWARD MOTION UNTIL RUNNING INTO THE CURB. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR ALL THE LIGHTS WERE BACK TO NORMAL. IT HAPPENED AGAIN LATER IN THE DAY, LIGHTS COME ON, BRAKES FAIL. LUCKILY I WAS GOING VERY SLOWLY AND ABLE TO STOP THE CAR BY PUMPING THE BRAKES. *TR

FOR THE LAST YEAR I HAVE NOTICED THE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN STICKY. WHEN THE SUN SHINES ON IT ,THERE IS A GLARE WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. EVERYTHING STICKS TO THE DASHBOARD. THIS IS A PROBLEM AND A HAZARD AND WE WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO PROVIDE AN ACCEPTABLE SOLUTION. *TR

THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VCS SYSTEM WARNING INDICATORS GO OFF ON THE CAR, INCLUDING THE BRAKE LIGHT THE ABS LIGHT AND THEN THE BRAKES FAIL. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP ON THURSDAY, NOV. 6, AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT SINCE THE COMPUTER DIDN'T REGISTER A CODE. THE BRAKE LIGHT WENT ON AGAIN ON SATURDAY, NOV, 8. AND THEN THE VCS SYSTEM WARNING INDICATORS WENT OFF WHEN I STARTED MY CAR ON TUESDAY, NOV. 11. AND THE BRAKES FAILED. I CANNOT DRIVE THIS CAR AROUND LIKE THIS NOT KNOWING WHEN THE BRAKES ARE GOING TO FAIL. IT'S NOT SAFE, AND I CAN'T GET ANY HELP FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I DON'T HAVE THE OPTION OF NOT DRIVING INTO WORK. I NEED A CAR. THIS CAR IS SUPPOSED TO BE SAFE. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 CAMRY, THE CAR JUST CUT OFF. PRIOR TO CUTTING OFF, THE BATTERY LIGHT FLASHED AND THE CARE HESITATED. I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND IT CRANK BACK UP BUT SPUTTERED. THEN THE CAR RAN FINE. ALSO, THE CAR IS BURNING A GREAT DEAL OF OIL. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD FALL DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER.

WHILE DRIVING TO THE MARKET AT 40MPH A SERIES OF WARNINGS CAME ON. THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM", THE BRAKE LIGHT, ABS, SKID, PARKING LIGHT, AND GENERAL WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE CAR LOST ITS BRAKING POWER. I HAD TO PUSH DOWN VERY HARD ON THE BRAKE AND USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR. SO FAR IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE. ACCORDING TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, THERE IS NO RECORD OF THE ERRORS OR LACK OF BRAKE POWER IN THE COMPUTER AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT. I AM NOT DRIVING IT NOW BECAUSE I AM CONCERNED ABOUT CRASHING. *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS THE DASHBOARD ALL MELTED. THIS CAUSES A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF GLARE WHILE DRIVING DURING THE DAY AND YOU CANT SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. I'VE LOOKED OVER THE INTERNET ASWELL AS TALKED WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE CAMRY MODELS. LOOKS LIKE A MANUFACTURE DEFECT THAT TOYOTA DOES NOT WANT TO REPLACE. EVERY YEAR I CONTACT THEM AND ITS THE SAME ANSWER THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. PLEASE HELP !!! *TR

THE VEHICLE IS SLUGGISH OCCASIONALLY WHEN ACCELERATING. THE CHECK ENGINE CAME ON AT FIRST AND NOW ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ADVISED THAT IT IS THE BATTERY PACK. THE COST THEY QUOTED IS $4000. LAST MONTH I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ACTUATOR AND NOW ITS THE BATTERY PACK. THIS TOYOTA HAS BEEN VERY UNRELIABLE AND UNSAFE. I HAD ISSUES WITH BRAKING LAST MONTH AND NOW IT IS HARD TO KNOW IF THE CAR WILL ACCELERATE WHEN NEEDED. TOYOTA HAS HAD A VERY POOR RESPONSE TO ANY INQUIRIES. THEY SHOW VERY LITTLE REGARD FOR PUBLIC SAFETY AND PREFER TO SETTLE CASES THAN TO BE PROACTIVE AND FIX THEIR UNRELIABLE AND DANGEROUS PRODUCTS. *TR

MY DASHBOARD OF MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS COMPLETELY MELTED AND IS CAUSING MY VIEW TO BE OBSTRUCTED BY THE SUNS GLARE WHEN DRIVING. TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE OR FIX THIS. *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY'S DASHBOARD IS MELTING. IT'S LIKE SOMEONE HAS POURED HONEY OR SYRUP ALL OVER IT. I FIRST NOTICED IT THIS SUMMER AND IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. I HAVE TRIED TO CLEAN IT WITH WINDEX AND A PAPER TOWEL OR A DRY CLOTH. IT NOW HAS PAPER TOWEL PIECES STUCK ALL OVER IT AND THE DUST IS PERMANENTLY ON THE DASH BECAUSE IT WON'T WIPE OFF. THERE IS ALSO A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND A HORRIBLE SUBSTANCE ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD THAT CANNOT BE WIPED OFF NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CLEAN IT, IT JUST SMEARS. THIS CAUSES DIFFICULTIES DRIVING AT NIGHT. GOD ONLY KNOWS WHAT CHEMICALS ARE BEING RELEASED INSIDE THE VEHICLE THAT WE ARE ALL INHALING! I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO ROUND ROCK TOYOTA IN ROUND ROCK, TX AND THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME HOW AWFUL IT WAS BUT THEY COULDN'T/WOULDN'T HELP ME UNLESS I WANTED TO PURCHASE A NEW DASH BOARD FOR MY CAR. FROM MY READING ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM AND TOYOTA IS DOING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO MAKE AMENDS FOR THE DEFECTIVE MATERIALS THEY HAVE USED IN THESE VEHICLES. I CANNOT SELL MY CAR LIKE THIS AND I'M SURE IT WILL EFFECT THE VALUE OF MY CAR SHOULD I EVER TRY TO REPLACE IT. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. IT'S BECOME EXTREMELY STICKY AND SHINY. I DO NOT USE ANY CHEMICALS OR OTHER PRODUCTS ON THE DASHBOARD .THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY WELL KNOWN PROBLEM WITH SO MANY CUSTOMERS REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM AND YET TOYOTA DOES NOT RECALL. THE PLASTIC IS FAILING. IT'S DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT'S SO TERRIBLY SHINY. *TR

I CALLED TOYOTA DEALER AND TOLD THEM, THEY TOOK PICTURES AND ACKNOWLEDGED DEFECTIVE PARTS. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD COST ME $250.00 FOR LABOR AS THE NEW DASH WOULD COST THEM $1500.00, I ARGUED THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE AND UNFAIR THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY BEING THEIR FAULT. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING. IT'S BECOME EXTREMELY STICKY AND SHINY. EVEN WHEN I TRY TO WASH IT, IT CONTINUES TO SECRETE A SLIMY STICKY FILM. THE PLASTIC IS FAILING. TOYOTA WANTS OVER 2000 DOLLARS TO REPLACE IT. IT'S DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT'S SO TERRIBLY SHINY. I BOUGHT IT NEW IN 2007. *TR

THIS ENGINE HAS HIGH ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION, THERE IS NO VISIBLE LEAKS, NO BLUE SMOKE INDICATION, AND OIL LAMP KEEPS GOING OF ON STOPS AND ACCELERATION. WHEN THAT HAPPENS IS BECAUSE THE ENGINE OIL IS LOW, EVEN AFTER REGULAR OIL CHANGES AT MILEAGE AND DATED RECOMMENDATIONS TOYOTA DO HAVE A HISTORY OF THIS IN LATE 90' WITH V6 MODELS DUE TO OIL SLUGGISH AND APPEARS IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS IS ALSO SAFETY CONCERN CAUSE THE VEHICLE MIGHT CEASED DURING OPERATION AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT ON OUR NATIONAL HIGHWAYS. ALSO IT IS BELIEVE THAT THIS IS MANUFACTURER DEFECT ISSUE AND TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECTIFY. *TR

THE DASHBOARD MATERIAL HAS BEEN MELTED AND IS NOW EXTREMELY SHINY AND STICKY. IT CAUSES THE SUNLIGHT TO REFLECT BACK ONTO THE WINDSHIELD WHICH MAKES VISIBILITY DEGRADED. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE A RECALL TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. *TR

I JUST GOT MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID BACK AFTER THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THIS PAST WEEK. I CALLED MY TOYOTA DEALER TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT WHILE I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION DONE AS WELL AS ANOTHER RECALL DEALING WITH, I BELIEVE, WAS A BRAKE RESERVOIR ISSUE. EARLIER IN THE WEEK I CALLED TOYOTA CORPORATE TO ASK THEM ABOUT THIS WARNING I GOT AND THEY ASKED ABOUT THE NUMEROUS WARNING LIGHTS THAT CAME ON WHEN THIS HAPPENED ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. AND RECOMMENDED I GET IT CHECKED OUT. I LEFT THE VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY AND LATER IN THE DAY THEY CAME BACK AND TOLD ME THE ITEMS WERE DONE, WHAT THE EXCEPTION OF THE VSC SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT. THEY SAID THAT MY ACTUATOR WAS FAULTY. THEY SAID THAT THEY HAD CALLED TOYOTA ABOUT IT AND WERE AWAITING A CALL BACK FROM THEM. THEY CALLED ME LATER IN THE DAY AND SAID THAT TOYOTA WAS WILLING TO DO THE REPAIR, FREE OF CHARGE, AS A "ONE TIME ONLY" DEAL. I NEVER MADE A BIG DEAL OUT OF THIS SITUATION, NEVER COMPLAINING. IRONICALLY, A WARNING LIGHT DEALING WITH MY TIRE PRESSURE THAT HAS NEVER CAME OFF IS GONE AS WELL AS THOSE OTHER LIGHTS INCLUDING THE (!), ABS, THE "SKIDDING CAR", ETC. AMONG OTHERS ALSO, MY CAMRY HAS OVER 233,000 MILES, NO WHERE NEAR A WARRANTY TYPE REPAIR! THIS MUST BE A PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA IS DEALING WITH, BUT ARE KEEPING IT ON THE "DOWN LOW" TO AVOID A RECALL AND ANOTHER PUBLIC EMBARRASSMENT. I AM ALSO FORWARDING THIS TO THE NTSB AND OUT LOCAL TV STATION. I AM SURE THIS IS HAPPENING ALL OVER THE COUNTRY AND HOPE THAT NO ONE IS ADVERSELY AFFECTED BY THIS OBVIOUS FACTORY DEFECT. SINCERELY, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE MELTING, IT IS VERY STICKY AND SOFT TO THE TOUCH, I AM AFRAID IT MIGHT CAUSE AIRBAGS TO ACTIVATE PREMATURELY , OR TO NOT ACTIVE WHEN NECESSARY. I WENT ONLINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA CAMRY'S. *TR

I HAD A ONE CAR ACCIDENT & THE AIR BAGS ON THE SIDE OF THE DRIVERS DOOR INJURED BOTH OF MY LEGS. MY LEFT LEG HAD THE INSIDE CUT TO THE BONE & SKIN RIPPED OFF, COULD NOT WALK FOR 8 WEEKS, HAD PLASTIC SURGERY. LARGE INDENTED SCAR NOW WITH SWELLING OF LEG, OTHERWISE LEG WORKS FINE. MY RIGHT LEG HAS A LARGE HEMATOMA WITH SWELLING, NO BROKEN SKIN. THE PARAMEDICS FELT IT WAS THE AIR BAGS THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM.. CAR WAS TOTALED, MAKE IS 2007 CAMRY, COMPUTER WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO PUT IN MAKE OF CAR.

THE DASH MELTED, IS STICKY AND IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN. THE GLARE OFF THE DASH IS AWFUL NOW. ALSO THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR HANGS DOWN NOW. THE ARM SEEMS TO HAVE BROKEN AND THE VISOR WON'T STAY UP TO THE CEILING. *TR

I PURCHASED THIS 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY FROM CARMAX IN JULY 2013. FOLLOWING THE PURCHASE, I NOTICED THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND THOUGHT MAYBE SOME TYPE OF DETAILING CLEANER HAD BEEN USED ON IT. THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY BECAUSE IT IS MELTING IN THE HEAT. THE SHINY, MELTING DASHBOARD CAUSES A GLARE ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD AFFECTING VISIBILITY. *TR

THE WINDSHIELD IS DELAMINATING (COMING APART) AT THE PERIMETER. I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL COMPLETELY SEPARATE. THE VEHICLE IS A HYBRID, WHICH HAS A SPECIAL NOISE INSULATING WINDSHIELD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT A UNKNOWN SPEED, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED AND THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,615.

THE DASH IS MELTING, CAUSING A STICKY TEXTURE THAT CAUSES A BRIGHT GLARE WHEN THE SUN SHINES ON IT. *TR

TOYOTA CAMRY - 2007 HEAD LITES - LOW BEAMS NOT GOOD. HIGH BEAMS NOT GOOD! GOOGLE "TOYOTA HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS" NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FOR 2007 AND ALSO OTHER YEARS. I CHECKED THE GROUND AND IT IS GROUNDED PROPERLY. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL! SOMEONE COULD HAVE AN ACCIDENT. NIGHT DRIVING IS NOT GOOD, EVEN WITH HIGH BEAMS! *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING. NOTHING CAN BE PUT ON IT. THE WINDSHIELD PROTECTOR SO IT DOESN'T GET REAL HOT INSIDE GOT STUCK TO DASHBOARD AND NOT BIG HOLE IN THE DASHBOARD. WHEN I AM DRIVING SOMETIMES THE GLARE IS SO STRIKING THAT IT GIVES YOU A BLINDSPOT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU ALL ARE GOING TO REPLACE IT. *TR

ON 10/14/2014 I TOOK THE CAR TO DEALER FOR BRAKE RESERVOIR RECALL. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BRAKE FLUID RESERVOIR AND RESET THE BRAKE VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL UNIT. ON 10/25/2014 WHILE APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AT WHICH TIME THE BRAKE WARNING, ABS WARNING, SLIP INDICATOR AND MASTER CAUTION WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE BRAKES GRABBED (OR MORE ACCURATELY: LOCKED RANDOM WHEELS IN A RANDOM SEQUENCE) CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CAREEN AND SWERVE OUT OF CONTROL. WHEELS APPARENTLY LOCKED UP COMPLETELY BECAUSE THERE WAS SMOKE AND SCREECHING. VEHICLE STOPPED SIDEWAYS IN THE INTERSECTION OUT OF CONTROL. HAD OTHER VEHICLES BEEN PRESENT IN ADJACENT LANES OR AHEAD OF ME THERE WOULD HAVE CERTAINLY BEEN AN ACCIDENT. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD ONGOING BRAKE PROBLEMS INCLUDING A BRAKE ECU REPLACEMENT. AFTER BRAKE ECU REPLACEMENT NO TROUBLE HAS OCCURRED UNTIL THIS EVENT. THE HYBRID BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE. WHEN THE HYBRID BATTERY FAILED THE FIRST TIME THE BRAKING SYSTEM ALSO BECAME UNSTABLE AND THE VEHICLE LURCHED FORWARD. THIS INCIDENT ALSO NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND WAS REPORTED TO NTSB. MY EXPERIENCE IS WHEN THERE IS A SYSTEM FAULT RELATED TO THE HYBRID BATTERY OR VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKE SYSTEM BECOMES UNSTABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 134,940.

THIS IS FOLLOW-UP ON MY COMPLAINT OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2014. I AM AN OWNER OF TOYOTA CAMRY, 2007. MY ORIGINAL COMPLAINT STATED ?THE INDICATORS BRAKE AND ABS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTED LIGHTING UP OCCASIONALLY AFTER THE FRONT BRAKE SERVICE ON 07-29-14. WHEN IT IS HAPPENING, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, TACHOMETER, AND SPEEDOMETER ARE MOVING QUICKLY, UP AND DOWN AND FINALLY TO ?0? POSITION.? I CONTACTED A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TWICE. THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY A CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED MORE TESTS, BUT STATED THEY COULD NOT GUARANTEE THE PROBLEM RESOLUTION. I REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE JOB WHICH WOULD NOT LEAD TO THE PROBLEM RESOLUTION. I HAD MANY EMAIL CONTACTS WITH TOYOTA CORPORATION DURING LAST SEVERAL WEEKS. I ASKED THEM IF THE CORPORATION HAS A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM REPORTED BY MANY TOYOTA OWNERS. I HAVE NEVER GOTTEN AN ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION. EACH TIME THEY REPLIED WITH AN ADVICE TO CONTACT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. I CONTINUE USING THE CAR WITH THE PROBLEM FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS. IT SEEMS THE CAR CONDITIONS DETERIORATE. IN ADDITION TO THE DESCRIBED DEFICIENCIES, I SAW E (ERROR) ON OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE DISPLAY SEVERAL TIMES, AN ERRONEOUS INDICATION OF FASTEN DRIVER SEAT BELT, EXCESSIVE VIBRATION OF AN ENGINE AND EVEN MORE IMPORTANT, REDUCED TRACTIVE CONTACT OF THE CAR ON THE WET ROAD. SAFETY OF MY CAR WITH THE DESCRIBED PROBLEM CROSSES MY MIND FREQUENTLY. ALL MY ATTEMPTS TO GET TOYOTA CORPORATION TO INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM HAVE FAILED. *TR

WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA A FEW WEEKS AGO, THEY SAID NO ONE HAD COMPLAINED AND THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. AND THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SAID IT COULD COST UP TO $3000 TO REPLACE. AND MY WINDSHIELD AND OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS THE POOR QUALITY OF THE MATERIAL IS THE REASON FOR THIS TOYOTA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING. IT IS STICKY AND CANNOT BE UNDONE. BITS COME OFF IN FINGERNAILS WHEN THEY STRIKE DASHBOARD IN ERROR. VERY HARD TO CLEAN. *TR

WE JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY DAUGHTER YESTERDAY EVENING FROM A TOYOTA DEALER IN FL. I SAW A SHINY BLEMISH ON THE DASHBOARD UP BY THE LEFT FRONT SPEAKER AND THE SALESMAN TOLD US THE DASH WAS PROBABLY DAMAGED BY CLEANING AGENTS. I REALIZED TODAY AFTER THE CAR WAS IN THE SUN THAT THE WHOLE DASH WAS SOFT AND STICKY LIKE IT WAS MELTING AND WAS CAUSING A VERY BLINDING GLARE WHEN FACING CERTAIN DIRECTIONS WITH THE SUN. THE DASH IS SO SHINY THAT IT ALSO REFLECTS ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE WHOLE DASH FEELS LIKE A FLY TRAP AND TO ME SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE OF THE OBSTRUCTION OF DUE TO GLARE. I'VE BEEN READING ONLINE AND APPARENTLY I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM WITH A MELTING DASHBOARD, NOR IS IT LIMITED TO TOYOTA. IT SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURED PARTS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE HANDLED OR RECALLED BY THE CAR MANUFACTURE.. THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE A SMELL THE HOTTER IT GETS IN THE CAR AND I DON'T KNOW IF ITS THE PLASTIC IN THE DASH OR IF IT COULD BE POTENTIALLY HARMFUL. PLEASE HELP. THANK YOU! *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS STICKING. I BOUGHT MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY NEW AND HAVE FOUND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE FROM OTHER 2007 OWNERS. *TR

DASHBOARD SHINE REFLECT THE SUN. *TR

UNDER WET CONDITIONS, MY BRAKE WARNING LIGHT APPEARED JUST AS I WAS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, I FOUND I HAD NO POWER BRAKES, AND BARELY MANAGED TO AVOID ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR REPAIR, THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY ABS SYSTEM, AND THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT WAS TO JUST REPLACE THE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY FOR ~$3,000. *TR

THE ABS BRAKE ACCUMULATOR WAS DEFECTIVE RESULTING IN A WARNING LIGHT AND LOSS OF BRAKING POWER. BRAKE PEDAL WOULD SLOWLY DEPRESS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOORBOARD WITH GREATLY REDUCED BRAKING EFFORT. IT WAS INTERMITTENT AT FIRST THEN WORSENED. I CAME CLOSE TO A REAR END COLLISION AND HAD TO GO TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD TO PREVENT STRIKING ANOTHER VEHICLE. TOYOTA WOULD NOT ASSIST IN COST OF REPAIR. PRICES FOR THE ACCUMULATOR PART RANGED FROM $1200 UP TO NEAR $3000. THIS PART HAS TO BE REPLACED BY A TOYOTA SHOP DUE TO COMPUTER PROGRAMMING REQUIREMENTS. I ENDED UP SHELLING OUT ABOUT $1500 TO HAVE IT REPLACED BY A TOYOTA SHOP AFTER I ACQUIRED AN OLDER VERSION OF THE PART FROM AN ONLINE SOURCE. IT IS APPARENT THEY HAVE REWORKED THE PART AND SUPERSEDED ITS ORIGINAL CATALOG NUMBER (PART # 44050-30300 ABS ACTUATOR ASSY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID) TO EVIDENTLY REFLECT A CORRECTED PART. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHERS HAVING THIS PROBLEM ALSO. *TR

THE ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED AT A COST TO ME OF $2147.96. DEALER CONTACTED REGIONAL REP AND SUBSEQUENTLY DETERMINED THAT TOYOTA WOULD NOT COVER THE OUT OF WARRANTY WORK.

DURING JULY, 2013, I NOTICED THAT THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAMRY WAS STICKY AND LOOKED GRIMY. I ASKED MY HUSBAND IF HE COULD CLEAN IT FOR ME. WHEN WE HAD THE CAR SERVICED IN AUGUST, 2013, WE WERE GIVEN THE TELEPHONE NUMBER FOR TOYOTA TO REPORT MY PROBLEM. IT WAS NOT UNTIL A ROAD TRIP THIS PAST SUMMER, THAT WE NOTICED HOW EXTREMELY DIFFICULT IT WAS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT THE DISTRACTION FROM ONCOMING HEADLIGHTS HITTING OUR GLOSSY DASHBOARD. WAS DISTRACTING AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THE GLARE OF THE DASHBOARD ON THE FRONT WINDOW FROM THE SUN DURING THE DAY WAS AS TERRIBLE. WE COULD NOT SEE EXIT SIGNS OR TRAFFIC WARNING LIGHTS BECAUSE OF THE CONSTANT GLARE AND BLINDING REFLECTION. AFTER I SAW A NEWS INVESTIGATION ON NBC6 MIAMI CONCERNING MY SAME PROBLEM, I REALIZED THAT THIS SITUATION IS A GROWING CONCERN FOR TOYOTA OWNERS AND SHOULD BE BY TOYOTA. MY FAMILY HAS HAD TOYOTAS SINCE MY MOTHER'S CRESSIDA IN 1984. WE HAVE LIVED IN MIAMI SINCE THEN AND HAVE ALWAYS PURCHASED TOYOTAS; TERCEL, COROLLA-SR-5, 3 CELICAS, 3 COROLLAS, ETC. MY 2007 CAMRY HAS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT TOYOTA CORPORATION HAS BEEN USING INFERIOR MATERIALS IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE LIABLE FOR SOMETHING THAT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES AND INJURY WE NEVER HAD ANY SUCH PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE TO BECOME PART OF ANY CLASS ACTION CONCERNING THIS SITUATION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AND AS I APPROACHED THE STOP SIGN THAT IS AT A SLIGHT RISE IN THE ROAD; I STEPPED ON THE BRAKES AND THEY WERE VERY HARD GOING DOWN AND I HEAR AIR COMING OUT OF SOMEWHERE. MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES AND I FINALLY STOPPED JUST AS I STEERED THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD NEXT TO THE STOP SIGN. I JUST MISSED A CAR COMING FROM THE SOUTH ON THE ROAD I WAS TURNING ON. I CONTINUED MY DRIVE HOME "WHITE KNUCKLING" IT ALL THE WAY. THE BRAKES DID THE SAME THING AT THE OTHER STOP SIGNS AND THE TWO TURNS I HAD TO MAKE TO GET HOME. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 5 MILES PER HOUR WHEN I PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT OF MY APARTMENT COMPLEX BECAUSE I WAS SCARED TO DEATH I WAS GOING TO HIT A CHILD. I HAVE HAD THE CAR PARKED SINCE THEN BECAUSE I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPAIRED YET. *TR

THIS WAS VERY NOTICABLE OVER A YEAR AGO, BUT I DIDNT UNDERSTAND THE EXTENT UNTIL I TOOK IT TO MY TOYOTA SERVICE AND HE TOLD ME IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM. IT WAS REPORTED ON 10/10 & THE TOYOTA SERVICE DEPT CAME BACK & TOLD ME THAT THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING. I CAN TELL YOU THAT THIS IS MY FIFTH TOYOTA, INCLUDING A 98 CAMRY THAT I STILL OWN AND NONE OF THEM EVER HAD THIS PROBLEM.

I HAVE A 2007 CAMRY HYBRID. THE DASHBOARD IS CONSTANTLY STICKY AND IT FEELS LIKE IT'S LITERALLY MELTING AWAY. ESPECIALLY WHEN IT GETS HOT, I CAN GOUGE OUT THE PLASTIC. I TALKED TO THE LOCAL DEALER, AND HE SAID I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE DASH. DOESN'T SEEM LIKE ITS NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. ALSO CREATING A SHINE WHICH IS CAUSING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD.

I WAS RECENTLY IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, I WAS STRUCK BY ANOTHER CAR OF THE DRIVER DOOR THE DOOR WAS BADLY HIT/DAMAGED, YET THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. AS THIS WAS A DOUBLE IMPACT ACCIDENT, AFTER BEING STRUCK ON THE DOOR, THE CAR WENT STRAIGHT INTO A HYDRANT POLE, STRIKING THE CAR DEAD CENTER AND CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. AGAIN, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. AS I AM NOT SURE OF WHERE THE SENSORS IN THE FRONT ARE LOCATED, I CANNOT REALLY SAY THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, THE IMPACT ON THE DOOR WAS SUFFICIENT FOR THE AIRBAG TO HAVE DEPLOYED. THE POLICE, EMT AND TOWING COMPANY ALL MADE THE SAME COMMENT...THEY WERE CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I ALSO SPOKE TO MY INSURANCE CLAIM ADJUSTER WHO ALSO STATED THAT AT THE VERY LEAST, THE DOOR AIRBAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. HE IS CURRENTLY STILL INSPECTING MY CAR AND CANNOT COMMENT ABOUT THE FRONT AIRBAGS AS OF YET. IF NEEDED, I DO HAVE PHOTOS THAT CAN BE PROVIDED. MY CONCERN IS THAT HAD I BEEN DRIVING AT A FASTER SPEED OR HAD IT BEEN A HIGHWAY ACCIDENT, THE POSSIBILITY OF A FATALITY WOULD HAVE BEEN THAT MUCH GREATER. WITH THAT SAID, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT THE AIRBAGS BE INVESTIGATED TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE MANUFACTURING BATCH. ALTHOUGH MY SON AND I SUFFERED EXTENSIVE BRUISING, I AM THANKFUL THAT IT WAS NOT WORSE. *TR

THE ACCIDENT DATA PROVIDED BY THE INSPECTOR HIRED BY TOYOTA CLEARLY SHOWS THAT AT THE TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. WHEN THE BRAKE WAS APPLIED THE ACCELERATION INCREASED FROM .78 TO 2.27 AND THE ENGINE RPMS INCREASED FROM 400 TO 2000. WHEN THE BRAKE WAS RELEASED AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT, THE ACCELERATION RATE RETURNED TO .78 AND THE RPMS DROPPED TO 1600. TOYOTA SAYS THEY FOUND NO MECHANICAL PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR AND INSISTS THAT BOTH THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE WERE PRESSED AT THE SAME TIME, WHICH WAS NOT THE CASE. THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED UNEXPECTEDLY, BUT AT THE TIME WE DIDN'T REALIZE THAT THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. WE FEEL TOYOTA DOESN'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE AND ARE CONCERNED THAT THIS MIGHT HAPPEN AGAIN. AS A RESULT, MY WIFE IS NOW AFRAID TO RIDE IN THE CAR. *TR

GLARE FROM DASHBOARD DISTRACTED ME. ALSO SEEMS THAT DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND BREAKING APART IN SMALL AREAS. MAIN CONCERN IS THE GLARE, IT SEEMS THAT GLARE IS GETTING WORSE ALONG WITH THE MELTING. REALLY WORRIED THAT GLARE MIGHT DISTRACT TO THE POINT OF AN ACCIDENT. TRIED CLEANING BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK, CLOTH OR PAPER PRODUCTS START TO STICK TO DASHBOARD. *TR

9-30-2014: MY DASHBOARD AS BEEN MELTING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. AT FIRST I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS SOFT ON ESPECIALLY HOT DAYS, BUT THE CONDITION CONTINUED TO DETERIORATE. NOW PIECES ARE STARTING TO COME OFF AND VISIBILITY IS GETTING WORSE DAILY AS THE DASH BECOMES SHINIER. I PARK MY CAR IN A CARPORT OUT OF THE SUN. I DRIVE THE CAR SHORT DISTANCES ONCE A WEEK OR LESS. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER IN GAINESVILLE FLORIDA SEVERAL TIMES ASKING WHAT TO DO. THEY FINALLY TOLD ME TO CALL TOYOTA CORPORATE, WHICH I DID IN AUGUST. THEY SAID THEY WERE UNAWARE OF OTHER OWNERS WITH PROBLEMS AND SINCE I WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WAS NOT A PREFERRED CUSTOMER (SINCE I HAVEN'T PURCHASED MORE THAN ONE TOYOTA) THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. TODAY I WENT TO THE LOCAL DEALER IN PERSON. [XXX], THE SERVICE REP, SAID IT WOULD COST $3,000 TO REPLACE, OR I COULD GET A DASHBOARD COVER. HOWEVER, HE TOLD ME THAT I HAD TO BE CAREFUL ABOUT COVERING THE AIR BAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. HOW MANY OWNERS ARE TRYING TO DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE ON THEIR OWN WITH COVERS ONLY TO CAUSE A MALFUNCTION OF THE AIR BAG IN AN ACCIDENT?! I'M SO EXASPERATED WITH HOW TOYOTA HAS BEEN DEALING WITH THE PROBLEM I BEGAN AN INTERNET SEARCH TODAY AND DISCOVERED THE MEDIA REPORTS AND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS. WOW! WHEN I TALKED TO [XXX] TODAY I ASKED HIM IF HE HAS SEEN THIS ISSUE. HE LOOKED DOWN AT THE DASHBOARD AND SAID, "NO." IS THIS HOW TOYOTA IS TRAINING THEIR REPS? TO LIE TO THEIR CUSTOMERS? I GUESS SO NOW THAT I SEE THE REPORTING OF THE PROBLEM AND NEWS THAT A LAWSUIT HAS BEEN FILED BY FERRARO LAW FIRM IN MIAMI. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I BEGAN NOTICING THAT THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY WAS BECOMING SHINY/WET LOOKING APPROX A YEAR AGO. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE AND NOW IT IS SO BAD THAT THERE IS A GLARE ON MY WINDSHIELD DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING. THIS VEHICLE STAYS IN AN ENCLOSED GARAGE AND NO HARSH/CAUSTIC CLEANING AGENTS HAVE EVER BEEN APPLIED TO THE DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS SOFT AND STICKY. IT IS LITERALLY MELTING! ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS A FOUL ODOR AS A RESULT OF THE MELTING DASHBOARD. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING. I HAVE TAKEN METICULOUS CARE OF THIS CAR, USED SUN SHADE & GARAGED FOR THE FIRST 4 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS GETTING VERY SOFT AND WHEN SOMETHING TOUCHES IT, IT GOUGES OUT PIECES OF IT. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE IN MY $30,000 CAR !!!! *TR

OVER THE COURSE OF THE PAST YEAR, THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY HAS DEVOLVED INTO A STICKY, SHINY MESS. THE SURFACE OF MOST OF THE DASHBOARD HAS A GLUEY TEXTURE, WITH THE PARTS NEAREST THE WINDSHIELD HAVING COMPLETELY LIQUEFIED. THE STICKY AREAS ARE VERY SHINY, CAUSING GLARE THAT COVERS MUCH OF THE WINDSHIELD WHEN DRIVING TOWARDS THE SUN OR UNDER STREETLIGHTS. THIS GLARE IS VERY DISTRACTING AND SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES VISIBILITY. *TR

THE CAR PULLS TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT AND THERE IS ALOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL, AND OCCASIONALLY THE WHEEL WILL JERK SLIGHTLY. THERE IS A POPPING/ KNOCKING IN THE WHEELS AND STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO GET AN ALIGNMENT TWICE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS NOT THE ALIGNMENT. PUT NEW BRAKES AND ROTORS ON THE FRONT. DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE, RAN A VIN NUMBER CHECK AND MY CAR DID NOT SHOW UP WITH HAVING A RECALL. CALLED TOYOTA AND ASKED ABOUT A RECALL FOR THE STEERING. TOYOTA STATED THAT BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT SHOW UP AS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD HELP ME WITH. ALSO SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL OR COMPLAINT ABOUT THE TRANSMISSION. I REALLY THINK THAT IF THERE WAS A HISTORY OF RECALLS FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL THAT TOYOTA SHOULD STILL CHECK THIS OUT FOR FREE AND FIX THE PROBLEM. JUST BECAUSE THE VIN NUMBER IS NOT SHOWING UP AS BEING RECALLED DOESN'T MEAN THAT THIS CAN NOT HAPPEN. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 2 WEEKS AND HAVE NOT BEEN HAPPY WITH THE WAY IT DRIVES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTING AND CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,500.

HI, I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH TOYOTA. ON SEPTEMBER 23RD, 2014 MY "OIL PRESSURE LIGHT "CAME ON, AND THEN AGAIN ON 09-26-14. I ALWAYS REGULARLY SERVICED MY CAR AT THE TOYOTA DEALER. AT FIRST I SAID "OK IT'S TIME FOR AN OIL CHANGE", BUT THE MILES THAT I USED SO FAR IT WAS NOT READY TO BE SCHEDULED FOR AN OIL CHANGE YET. I IMMEDIATELY KNEW THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND LEARNED THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. I DON'T HAVE A COUPLE OF THOUSANDS TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR; ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS IS NOT MY FAULT. IS TOYOTA PLANNING ON PAYING FOR THIS DEFECT FOR THEIR LOYAL CUSTOMERS? [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE HAS A MELTED DASHBOARD THAT SEVERELY DIMINISHES VISIBILITY WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. A REFLECTION FROM THE DASHBOARD IS DISPLAYED ON THE WINDSHIELD AND IS LIKE LOOKING DIRECTLY INTO THE SUN. SOONER OR LATER THIS IS GOING TO BE THE CAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT THAT MAY OR MAY NOT RESULT, BUT NOT LIMITED TO DEATH. IT IS A DEFECT ON THE PART OF TOYOTA AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I HAVE TWO SMALL CHILDREN AND THEIR LIVES SHOULD NOT BE PUT IN DANGER FOR AN OBVIOUS DEFECT THAT MUST BE CORRECTED. *TR

HERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY TOYOTA CAMRY, 4-DOOR LE SEDAN, 2007. THE INDICATORS BRAKE AND ABS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STARTED LIGHTING UP OCCASIONALLY AFTER THE FRONT BRAKE SERVICE ON 07-29-14. WHEN IT IS HAPPENING, THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE, TACHOMETER, AND SPEEDOMETER ARE MOVING QUICKLY, UP AND DOWN AND FINALLY TO '0' POSITION. MY MECHANIC WAS NOT ABLE TO FIX IT AND SUGGESTED TO BRING THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP. I VISITED TOYOTA SERVICES. CODE U0073 WAS PRESENT IN THEIR TESTS. THEY COULD NOT PINPOINT A PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED ADDITIONAL TESTS, BUT TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT GUARANTEE THE PROBLEM WILL BE RESOLVED. CONSIDERING THE SAID ABOVE, I DECIDED NOT TO DO ANY MORE TESTS. I CONTINUE DRIVE MY CAR WITH THE DESCRIBED PROBLEM. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE AFTER PUTTING INTO USE. THE BROKEN HINGE ON THE VISOR DOES NOT ALLOW THE VISOR TO BE MOVED INTO A STORED POSITION, OUT OF THE DRIVERS VIEW. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD COVER WAS MELTING AND FRACTURED WHEN TOUCHED. THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AREA MELTED AND EXPOSED THE BOARD. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE AIR BAGS MAY DEPLOY AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WIRES MAY FAIL, IF EXPOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE ABS AND BRAKE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. ALSO, THE SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER FAILED TO OPERATE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THERE WAS A RAPID INCREASE IN RPMS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

UNIT JERKS AND STALLS, BURNS OIL .SOME TIMES WHITE SMOKE COMES FROM THE TAIL PIPE . OIL HAS TO BE REPLACED CONSTANTLY AFTER OIL CHANGE , RECOMMENDED WEIGHT 5W20W IS USED. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE BURNED SPARK PLUGS. THIS IS A PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE ON A RECALL LIST. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING DANGEROUS GLARE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE IS MELTING. IT'S STICKY, LOOKS WET, AND ON SOME DAYS IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE CLAY. WHEN THE SUN IS OUT IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE DUE TO THE INTENSE GLARE. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY DAYS I TRY TO LOOK AT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD WHEN THERE'S BEEN ONCOMING TRAFFIC LIKE YOU DO WHEN SOMEONE IS COMING AT YOU WITH THEIR HI-BEAMS ON. THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINTS MADE CONCERNING THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED. WITH THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE REPORTING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE ITS TIME FOR SOMEONE TO STEP UP AND MAKE OTHERS WITH THE ABILITY TO HELP DO THE RIGHT THING. THIS IS NONSENSE. *TR

THE STICKY AND MELTING DASHBOARD. THE DASH FEELS LIKE CLAY AND IS PLIABLE, IT CAN EASILY BE PEELED AWAY. AT FIRST WE THOUGHT WIPING IT DOWN WOULD HELP BUT IT SEEMS OVER TIME THE DASHBOARD CANNOT BE CLEANED, TOO STICKY. IT'S EXTREMELY ANNOYING BECAUSE IT'S ACTUALLY SO SHINY THAT WE GET A LOT OF GLARE ESPECIALLY ON A BRIGHT DAY. THIS IS BECOMING A REALLY BIG ISSUE BECAUSE IT REFLECTS ONTO THE WINDOW WHEN DRIVING, WHICH COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT/ISSUE THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO OWN UP TO AND FIX BEFORE SOMEONE GET SERIOUSLY HURT. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE AND IS HANGING LOOSE BLOCKING VISION. *TR

MELTING DASHBOARDS BECOME STICKY, SHINY AND CRACKED. YOU CAN SEE WHERE I'VE ACCIDENTALLY NICKED IT AND THE THING COMES OFF. IT'S VERY HARD TO DRIVE WHEN YOU'RE BLINDED BY GLARE AND YOU DON'T SEE A BIG PORTION OF THE ROAD. IT'S JUST MELTING MORE AND MORE EVERY DAY. I HAVE KIDS, IS NOT SAFE, I AM SURE IS TOXIC AND IS NOT ONLY MELTING BUT ALSO BREAKING AND MY KIDS CAN EAT IT. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN THIS CAR IS MELTING AND CREATING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. IT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. *TR

THE DASH BOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BECOME EXTREMELY SOFT AND GLARES BACK INTO THE WINDOW CAUSING IT HARD TO SEE. THIS CLEARLY SHOULD BE A DEFECT THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT. IT IS CLEAR TO SEE THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE AS PER ALL THE POSTINGS ON THE INTERNET. I HOPE THAT THE AGENCY IN CHARGE OF SAFETY LOOKS AT THIS AS A REAL PROBLEM AND NOT WAIT UNTIL SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS BEFORE REACTING. *TR

THE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING, NOW IT IS VERY SHINY AND STICKY. WHEN IT IS SUNNY OUTSIDE THERE IS A GLARE ON THE WINDSHEILD THAT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. *TR

ON 9/19/14, I SPOKE WITH "[XXX]", CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER, TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS REGARDING MY MELTING DASHBOARD. I EXPLAINED THAT IT'S A SECURITY ISSUE THAT TOYOTA HAS BEEN MADE AWARE OF, AND WHICH I BECAME AWARE OF BY LOCAL MEDIA. I INFORMED HER THAT THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT GLARE FROM MY DASHBOARD, AND ANYTHING THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH IT STICKS, SO I CAN'T EVEN USE A VISOR. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN DELRAY BEACH, FL HAS OFFERED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD FOR AN OUT-OF-POCKET EXPENSE TO ME OF $600 (TOTAL REPORTEDLY NORMALLY $2000), HOWEVER, I ADVISED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS THAT THERE SHOULD BE NO COST TO ME DUE TO THE KNOWN SECURITY ISSUES, REPORTED ACCIDENTS, THEIR COMPANY'S INTEGRITY AND MY LOYALTY AS A LONGTIME TOYOTA CUSTOMER. [XXX] REMINDED ME THAT MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, AND THAT "OUT OF RESPECT FOR YOU, THE DEALERSHIP IS OFFERING YOU ASSISTANCE. WE DON'T HAVE A RECALL NOTICE OR CUSTOMER SUPPORT FOR THIS VEHICLE, SO THERE WILL BE NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE." AS A CORPORATION, TOYOTA SHOULD BE ASHAMED AND BE PROACTIVE IN RESOLVING THIS ISSUE. ULTIMATELY, SOMEONE WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN THEIR MISFORTUNE WHEN A LOVED ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIES IN AN ACCIDENT ATTRIBUTED TO THE GLARE. TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS SHOULD HAVE BEEN WILLING TO SEND ME A VOUCHER OR MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR THE $600 TO REPLACE MY DASHBOARD. PUBLIC OPINION CAN AFFECT THEIR BOTTOMLINE AND THEY'RE OBVIOUSLY WILLING TO PUT THE PUBLIC AT RISK TO SAVE A FEW DOLLARS UPFRONT. *TR

NUMEROUS CRACKS OVER ENTIRE DASHBOARD THAT MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS IF AIRBAGS ARE CAUSED TO DEPLOY. *TR

ONE DAY AFTER TOYOTA REPLACED MY REAR BRAKES AND ROTORS, I WAS DRIVING WHEN SUDDENLY THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIT UP, THE SPEEDOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO, THE TACHOMETER DROPPED TO ZERO, AND THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE FLUTTERED BETWEEN ZERO AND MIDRANGE. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE LASTED ONLY A MINUTE OR TWO, BUT ON THE NEXT MORNING IT HAPPENED TWICE, EACH OCCURRENCE LASTING SEVERAL MINUTES. IT WAS VERY DISCONCERTING TO BE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND NOT HAVE A WORKING SPEEDOMETER AND NOT KNOW IF THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES, SINCE BOTH THE BRAKE AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS WERE LIT. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA THAT MORNING AND IT TOOK THEM 4 DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM, COMING TO THE CONCLUSION WITH HELP FROM TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS THAT IT MUST BE THE ABS COMPUTER. IT COSTS $1800 PLUS THEY ARE CHARGING ME 8 HOURS OF LABOR (EVEN THOUGH THEY SPENT SEVERAL DAYS TRYING TO DIAGNOSE IT) FOR A TOTAL OF $2700. WHEN MY WIFE FOUND OUT HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST, SHE GOOGLED THE PROBLEM AND IN A SECOND THERE WERE OTHER IDENTICAL COMPLAINTS MENTIONING THE ABS COMPUTER REPLACEMENT. *TR

DASH IS STICKY. THE GLARE IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO THE RESIDUE ON THE DASH . NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED. *TR

TOYOTA DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED IMMEDIATE REPAIRS (REPLACEMENT) OF FRONT, LEFT, AND RIGHT STRUT (PART # 48520-09F40 AND 48510-09M90). TOTAL REPAIR COST ESTIMATED IS $719.73. THIS IS MY THIRD TOYOTA CAMRY. 2004 CAMRY BECAME "LEMON" FOR BRAKES PROBLEM, 2005 CAMRY BECAME "LEMON" FOR ENGINE PROBLEM. AND NOW ON MY THIRD CAMRY, AFTER DRIVING ONLY 65000 MILES, FRONT STRUTS OF MY CAR HAVE LEAKING OIL. MY CAR WAS NOT INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT. I SEE ON WEBSITE MANY COMPLAINTS FOR LEAKING OIL ON STRUTS ON 2007 CAMRYS. I SUGGEST TO TOYOTA MAKING RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE. *TR

THE TOP OF THE DASHBOARD IS TACKY OR STICKY AND EXTREMELY SHINY. SUNLIGHT REFLECTS OFF THE SURFACE OF THE DASHBOARD, CREATING A GLARE THAT OBSTRUCTS VISION. THE STICKY NATURE OF THE DASHBOARD SURFACE MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO CLEAN. THE MATERIAL IS EXTREMELY SOFT AND EASY TO DAMAGE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA SOLARA EQUIPPED WITH NEXEN 5000 TIRES, SIZE 215/55/R17. THE CONTACT STATED THAT A TECHNICIAN INFORMED HIM THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRES HAD DEVELOPED BUBBLES ON THE SIDE WALL. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD PREVIOUSLY EXPERIENCE A BLOW OUT WHILE USING THE SAME MODEL TIRE ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE TIRE WAS IN THE SAME CONDITION BEFORE THE BLOW OUT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 101,000 AND THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. PAM

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAR GETS STICKY FROM THE HEAT AND CANNOT BE CLEANED OR TREATED. DEPENDING ON THE TIME OF DAY AND THE DIRECTION OF THE SUN IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD BECAUSE OF THE GLARE OFF OF THE GLOSSY/STICKY DASHBOARD. I THOUGHT THIS WAS UNIQUE TO ME UNTIL I PERFORMED AN INTERNET SEARCH. WHEN I CALLED THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN FORT WORTH, TX, THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT. I THEN CONTACTED A TRIM SHOP WHO TOLD ME THAT THEY HEAR ABOUT IT ALL OF THE TIME. I THINK TOYOTA NEEDS TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM SO THAT IT IS SAFE FOR MY FAMILY TO DRIVE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION AND HELP IN FINDING A SOLUTION. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS SOFT TO TOUCH AND STICKY ESPECIALLY IN THE HEAT. IF YOU TOUCH IT WITH YOUR NAIL IT WILL MAKE A INDENTION. IT IS VERY HOT TO TOUCH. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND DAMAGED. *TR

WE BOUGHT THIS 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID IN JANUARY 2007. I STARTED NOTICING THE DASHBOARD BEGAN TO GET STICKY AND SHINY. I'VE NEVER USED ANY HARSH CHEMICALS OR ANY CHEMICALS USED TO CLEAN THE DASHBOARD. THE REST OF THE CAR IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF BUT AS THE YEARS WENT BY, THE DASHBOARD HAS JUST GOTTEN WORSE. I BEGAN DOING RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT OTHERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. MANY HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S NOT PART OF THE WARRANTY. I BELIEVE IT'S A MANUFACTURE'S DEFECT. NOT ONLY IS IT DIRTY LOOKING, IT ALSO HAS A SHINE TO IT AND THAT HAS POTENTIAL TO BE VERY DANGEROUS. ESPECIALLY ON A BRIGHT SUNNY DAY, THE SHINE FROM THE DASHBOARD REFLECTS UP TO THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AND THE SAME ISSUE ARISES WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. *TR

3 OR 4 YEARS AGO MY DASH BOARD STARTED MELTING. IT IS STICKY AND HAS A SHINE TO IT THAT CAUSES A GLARE WHEN DRIVING INTO THE SUN. I HAVE ASKED TOYOTA ABOUT IT AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY WILL DO. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BEEN MELTING SINCE AUGUST OF 2012. SINCE IT HAS STARTED MELTING THE DASH IS VERY REFLECTIVE IN SUNNY WEATHER MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO LOOK OUT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THE GLARE HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET IN AN ACCIDENT ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. *TR

VEHICLE SERVICED 3/10/10 UNDER TOYOTA 90L RECALL CAMPAIGN. DEALERSHIP STATED ALL SYSTEMS FUNCTIONAL UPON COMPLETION. ON 5/21/14, IN SAFE ROAD CONDITIONS AND PARKING LOT SPEEDS <10 MPH, DRIVER APPLIED BRAKES TO VEHICLE IN ORDER TO PULL INTO PARKING SPOT. DURING BRAKING, VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW OR STOP, BUT ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, STRIKING A PARKING BERM AND THREE OTHER VEHICLES. POLICE REPORT MADE; DRIVER NOT CITED BUT WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT TOYOTA RE BRAKE FAILURE AND ACCELERATION. TOYOTA WAS CONTACTED; INSPECTION WAS MADE BY BOSCH ENGINEERING. TOYOTA CONTENDS THE INCIDENT IS NOT A RESULT OF ANY MANUFACTURING DEFECT. TOYOTA PROVIDED A TECHNICAL REPORT CONTAINING ENGINEERING DATA WITHOUT LAYMAN'S EXPLANATION OR PROOF OF ITS CONTENTION. TOYOTA WAS FOUND BY THE DOJ TO HAVE MISLED CONSUMERS AND THE GOVT REGARDING SEVERITY AND "RESOLUTION: OF THIS ISSUE. ON 8/21/14 AND 8/22/14 DRIVER WAS CONTACTED BY TOYOTA WITH A SECOND AND SEPARATE RECALL NOTICE #E0U, AFFECTING THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE RESERVOIRS, IN WHICH CLOGGING AND/OR LOW FLUID LEVELS "COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL WARNING LAMPS[...]TO ILLUMINATE AND FRONT BRAKE ASSIST COULD BE TEMPORARILY LOST." THE WARNING LAMP IN QUESTION DID ILLUMINATE DURING THE 5/21 INCIDENT. LEGAL COUNSEL FOR DRIVER HAS ADVISED AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE BOSCH REPORT AND INSPECTION OF THE BRAKE RESERVOIR; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND SOLD AT AUCTION BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY'S SALVAGE AGENT. I HAVE INITIATED AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE BOSCH REPORT AT MY OWN EXPENSE. IN LIGHT OF TOYOTA'S MISLEADING CONDUCT REGARDING RECALL CAMPAIGN 90L AND THE SUBSEQUENT RECALL #E0U, DRIVER CONTENDS THAT TOYOTA IS AT FAULT FOR THE EVENTS OF 5/21/14.

HID HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. PROBLEM IS SPORADIC. MAY INCLUDE ONE OR BOTH LIGHTS TURNING OFF. IT IS NOT A BULB ISSUE. SIMILAR TO TOYOTA PRIUS HID LIGHT ISSUES. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT HAS THE MELTING DASHBOARD. I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT MANY TIMES STARTING IN SEPTEMBER OF 2012. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY FAULT. SOMETHING I USED ON DASHBOARD. (CLEANING PRODUCT). I KNEW I HAD NOT AND INSISTED MID LAST YEAR THAT THEY TAKE PICTURES AND SUBMIT TO HAVE IT FIXED. I DID NOT GET A RESPONSE. LAST MONTH AUGUST, 2014 8 ON YOUR SIDE AIRED THE STORY ON MELTING DASHBOARDS. I CALLED TOYOTA AGAIN AND THEY SAID THEY WERE SORRY NO ONE GOT BACK TO ME. THEY SAID THEY HAD THE COMPLAINT ON FILE, BUT COULD NOT EXPLAIN WHY I GOT NO RESPONSE. A FEW DAYS LATER THEY SAID THEY WOULD FIX IT FOR JUST UNDER $800.00. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM AND THINK IT SHOULD BE A RECALL. THE GLARE IT CAUSES OFF THE WINDSHIELD MAKES IF DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. ALSO MELTING PLASTIC MAY NOT BE GOOD FOR THE AIR QUALITY. THANK YOU I WAS IN CONTACT WITH CLEARWATER TOYOTA. THEY SAID I HAD 90 DAYS TO ACCEPT OR DENY THEIR OFFER. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING,AND ITS ONLY GETTING WORSE,CANT CLEAN IT OFF,BUT ASIDE FROM THAT I FEAR THAT IN AN EMERGENCY MY PASSENGER AIRBAG WILL NOT PROPERLY DEPLOY...THIS IS A HORRIBLE YET SCARY ISSUE TO HAVE...SUCH A BEAUTIFUL CAR WITH A MELTING DASHBOARD,I AM A BIG HONDA AND TOYOTA FAN AS FOR THE REST OFF MY FAMILY..AND I CAN TELL YOU THIS CANNOT BE TOYOTA QUALITY OF SERVICE,AND I HIGHLY DOUBT THAT THE CHEAP MELTING GUM LIKE MATERIALS USED FOR THESE DASHBOARDS ARE NOT UP TO TOYOTA STANDARDS.. *TR

GOT IN FRONT RIGHT SEAT AND THE SEAT BELT WILL NOT PULL OUT TO BUCKET. *TR

ABS LIGHT IS ON. SO FAR THE CAR STOPS FINE BUT MAKES A STRANGE SOUND WHEN APPLYING BRAKES AND VEHICLE VIBRATES WHEN COMING TO A STOP. ANTILOCK BRAKES DO NOT SEEM TO BE WORKING AS THE CAR DOES SKID IN WET CONDITIONS. *TR

MY TOYOTA CAMRY HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE DASHBOARD. ITS MELTED AND IS STICKY HAS A VERY HIGH SHINE IN THE SUNLIGHT. AT TIMES OCCLUDES MY VISION FOR SAFE DRIVING AND I FEEL IS VERY UNSAFE. OBVIOUSLY IT SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE I HAVE AN ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED A DEALER WHEN THEY WERE DOING A MARKETING SURVEY WHICH SPECIFICALLY ASKED IF OUR CAR HAS DASHBOARD MELTING ISSUES. WHEN I CALLED THEY SAID THE DEALER WOULD PAY FOR THE PART (@ $1000) AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE INSTALL @ ANOTHER $1000. THAT IS TOO MUCH MONEY (WHICH I DON'T HAVE) AND IF THEY ARE ADMITTING IT IS A MATERIAL FAULT, THEN THEY SHOULD DO A RECALL AND PAY 100% BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. CAN YOU HELP? I NEED YOUR HELP. I REALLY LIKE MY CAR, BUT IT IS DANGEROUS. *TR

THE BRAKE AND ABS INDICATOR LIGHT STARTED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID CONTAINER AND IT WAS EXTREMELY LOW. I ADDED BRAKE FLUID. THIS CONCERNED ME BECAUSE I HAD MY CAR SERVICED LESS THAN TWO MONTHS AND FELT THEY SHOULD HAVE NOTICED THAT THE FLUID LEVEL WAS LOW. THE BRAKE AND ABS INDICATOR LIGHT CONTINUED TO COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP; A DIAGNOSTIC TEST WAS PERFORMED AND I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE BRAKE ACTUATOR. TOTAL COST WAS $2,086.40. SINCE I'VE HAD THE BRAKE ACTUATOR REPLACED, I'VE NOTICED THAT THE DELAYED BRAKE RESPONSE NO LONGER EXISTS. *TR

TOYOTA SHOULD PROVIDE A RECALL REGARDING THE REPLACEMENT OF A DEFECTIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLE DASHBOARD. MY CAR IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION BUT FOR SOME REASON THE VEHICLE HAS A STICKY, MELTING AND DIRTY DASHBOARD WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN BECAUSE IF YOU TOUCH IT VANISHES, WHILE CLEANING IT. FURTHERMORE, WHEN YOU DRIVE ON DAYLIGHT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE WITH THE GLARE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD, WHICH DEFINITELY MAY CAUSE A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT, INCREASING THE POSSIBILITY FOR INJURY AND EVEN DEATH ALONG TIME. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ASSISTANCE IN REPLACEMENT OF DEFECTIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS VEHICLE DASHBOARD . *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED NOT ONLY WAS THE DASHBOARD MELTING, STICKY, AND UGLY, THE GLARE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD AND THEREFORE GREATLY INCREASED THE POTENTIAL FOR INJURY. *JB

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ALSO MY SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE DOES NOT MOVE, AND RPM GAUGE STARTS FLUCTUATING. THIS OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALER THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO REPLACE THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (SKID CONTROL ECU) A TOTAL COST OF $3,453 TO FIX. :( MY CAR HAS ONLY 67,750 MILES. I DO KNOW THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID IS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND THOSE ARE BEING RECALLED. *TR

ABS LIGHT AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON. THE SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER FALLING TO ZERO, A/C SOUNDING AS IF IT SHUT DOWN, WARM AIR COMES OUT. *TR

ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM WENT OUT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND THE TOYOTA PLACE SAID THE ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND IT WOULD COST 2100.00 TO FIX IT. MY EXTENDED WARRANTY JUST RAN OUT ON MY CAR SO THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT. I SEE THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS INVESTIGATING THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID FOR THE SAME REASON I AM JUST WONDERING IF MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM IS THE SAME BRAKING SYSTEM THAT IS IN THOSE CARS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE ABS AND EMERGENCY WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE AIR CONDITIONER PRODUCED HOT AIR, THE ENGINE SPUTTERED, AND THE SPEED RAPIDLY DECREASED. THE CONTACT HAD TO PULL THE VEHICLE OVER, PLACE IT INTO PARK AND THEN BACK INTO DRIVE IN ORDER FOR IT TO OPERATE NORMALLY. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR HAD INTERNAL FAILURE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 123,785.

ENTIRE DASHBOARD IS STICKY/MELTING. YOU CAN'T CLEAN IT AND THERE IS A GLARE. IF YOU BUMP THE DASH, A SMALL PIECE WILL COME OFF. *TR

CAR PASSENGER SIDE VISOR FAILED AND HANGS STRAIGHT DOWN BLOCKING THE DRIVER SIDE RIGHT HAND VIEW. THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE ONCOMING TRAFFIC ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE AND FORCED ME TO PUT THE CAR INTO A DANGEROUS POSITION IN THE CENTER LANE. FORTUNATELY OTHER TRAFFIC HAD SLOWED TO ALLOW TO PROCEED INTO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. THIS IS THE SECOND VISOR FAILURE FOR THIS VEHICLE - CLEARLY A DESIGN/ENGINEERING ISSUE. FIRST WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY REPLACEMENT. *TR

DASHBOARD MELTING, STICKY, DISINTEGRATING TO THE TOUCH AND BASICALLY FALLING APART!!! *TR

I WAS PARKING MY CAR AND WHEN I WENT TO STOP CAR AND TURN IT OFF, I EXPERIENCED UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION. CAR JUMPED THE CURB AND CRASHED INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER OF THE PARKING GARAGE. *TR

I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ACCIDENTS BECAUSE OF THE MELTING DASHBOARD AND HOPE I DON'T. IT IS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE DEALT WITH. IT SEEMS THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT UNLESS THEY ARE MADE TO SO. MY DASHBOARD HAS GOTTEN SOFT AND CONTINUES TO GET SOFT EVEN THOUGH I KEEP IT GARAGED. THERE ARE GLARES AND GOUGES NOW. THOSE ARE DISTRACTING AND CAN EASILY RESULT IN ME OR SOMEONE ELSE HAVING A CRASH BECAUSE OF IT. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE.I HAVE SPOKEN TO CORPORATE AND THE LOCAL DEALER AND HAVE COME AWAY FRUSTRATED. ALL THEY WANT TO DO IS ASSIST IN THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DASH, AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY$1100 MYSELF. IT NOT RIGHT FOR THE CONSUMER TO PAY SUCH A PRICE WHEN THE CAR MAKER HAS CLEARLY MADE A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD SURFACE WAS MELTING AND BECAME STICKY. DUE TO THE FAILURE, A GLARE APPEARED ON THE WINDSHIELD WHICH DISTORTED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHENEVER THE SUN WAS OUT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSIS. THE SERVICE MANAGER CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE PROBLEM WAS ONLY CONSIDERED AN AESTHETIC PROBLEM AND WOULD NOT REPAIR THE PROBLEM FREE OF CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 360,981...UPDATED 10/02/14 *BF UPDATED 2/27/2015 *JS

THE DRIVER-SIDE SUN VISOR MOUNTING MECHANISM FAILED CAUSING THE VISOR TO DANGLE AND SWING FREELY, OBSTRUCTING DRIVER'S VIEW OF THE ROAD. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED IN MAY 2010 AND WAS REPLACED, THE REPLACEMENT ALSO FAILED (AS THE FIRST VISOR) IN JULY 2014. THE DEFECT IN THE VISOR DESIGN FLAW WAS NEVER CORRECTED CAUSING IT FAIL REPEATEDLY. TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE. TOYOTA ALSO REFUSED TO REPLACE THE VISOR THE SECOND TIME STATING IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET REVEALED THAT THIS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CAMRY SUN VISORS. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED TO COME DOWN WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND BEGAN TO MELT. THE FAILURE CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACT'S VISION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AT FIRST (APPROX. 2011) THE DASHBOARD WOULD FEEL STICKY, AS IF SOMETHING HAD SPILLED ON IT. HOWEVER THE STICKINESS COULD NOT BE CLEANED UP. IT WAS IN FACT THE MATERIAL OF THE DASHBOARD MELTING. IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND SPREADS ACROSS A LARGER AREA, TO THE POINT THAT NOW (2014) THE DASH CANNOT BE TOUCHED WITHOUT A MARK BEING LEFT IN THE MELTED MATERIAL. IT LOOKS WET AND IS SO GLOSSY THAT THE GLARE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD, NOT JUST WITH THE BLINDING GLARE WHICH IMPAIRS VISION, BUT BECAUSE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS CONTAINED INSIDE OF THE DASHBOARD AND THE DASHBOARD BEING MELTED MAY AFFECT ITS DEPLOYMENT. *TR

WAS VERY HOT OUTSIDE FOR 3 WEEKS STRAIGHT. ON THE WAY TO THE GROCERY STORE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH THE FOLLOWING 2 READOUTS ON SPEEDOMETER DISPLAY: "CHECK VSC" AND "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM". INSTANTLY THE HYBRID PART OF THE VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING. BRAKES CHANGED FEEL AND THROTTLE BECAME VERY DELAYED. WHEN I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY AND PUT THE TRANSMISSION INTO PARK, THE ENGINE STARTED TO KNOCK. WHEN I PUT INTO DRIVE OR NEUTRAL THE KNOCKING STOPS. THE ENGINE KNOCKED HARD IN PARK POSITION AS IF THERE ARE LOOSE PIECES OF METAL CRUNCHING. EVER SINCE THEN, THE CAR'S HYBRID DRIVE DOESN'T WORK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON, ABS LIGHT, VSC LIGHT P/S LIGHT, A RED TRIANGLE LIGHT, AND AN ORANGE CIRCLE WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT IN IT. WE PARKED THE CAR AND WE ARE NOT DRIVING IT UNTIL ITS FIXED. WE HAVE 2 TODDLERS AND WE AREN'T GOING TO RISK DRIVING IT. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING EAST ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY THE SUN WAS HITTING MY DASHBOARD AND BECAUSE OF THE MELTING CONDITION OF THE DASHBOARD THERE WAS A GLARE IN FRONT OF ME THAT IMPAIRED MY VISION. IT FORCED ME TO MAKE A LEFT HAND TURN TO GET WAY FROM THE GLARE. THIS DASH BOARD BECOMES SO STICKY IN THE HEAT THAT I CANT DISPLAY PARKING PASSES IN THE WINDOW BECAUSE I WON'T BE ABLE TO REMOVE THEM. BECAUSE OF THIS I RUN THE RISK OF BEING TICKETED. A DASHBOARD SHOULD NOT BE IN THIS CONDITION. IT IS MADE OF FAULTY MATERIAL. *TR

I'VE NOTICED MY 2007 CAMRY DASHBOARD IS MELTING UNDER THE HOT FLORIDA SUN. IN THE MORNINGS IS NOT AS STICKY BUT WHEN HEAT STARTS GOING UP THE DASHBOARD GET STICKIER AND SHINY MAKING A GLARE ON WINDSHIELD MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. THIS IS A PROBLEM I CANNOT HAVE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. PLEASE SOMEONE HELP! *TR

THE UPPER PART OF THE DASHBOARD (TOWARD THE WINDSHIELD) HAS BECOME SOFT AND STICKY. IT IS ESSENTIALLY MELTING. I HAVE TRIED TO CLEAN IT BUT THAT ONLY MAKES IT WORSE. IT IS NOW JUST A STICKY GOO. *TR

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY DASHBOARD STARTED TO MELT THIS SUMMER. I TYPICALLY WIPE AWAY THE DUST WITH A CLEAN MICROFIBER CLOTH FROM TIME TO TIME. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DO SO THIS ENTIRE SUMMER BECAUSE ANYTHING THAT TOUCHES THE DASHBOARD STICKS TO IT. IT'S NOW GETTING TO THE POINT THAT IT CREATES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD AND CAN BE HARD TO SEE ON A SUNNY DAY. TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THIS AND REPLACE IT WITH A DASHBOARD THAT WON'T DO THE SAME THING. I UNDERSTAND WEAR AND TEAR BUT THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I HAVE HAD MANY CARS AND THIS IS THE FIRST SITUATION I'VE COME ACROSS THAT I FELT NEEDED TO BE FIXED BY THE COMPANY, NO MATTER HOW OLD THE CAR IS. TOYOTA TOLD ME IT HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THIS BEING AN ISSUE. CLEARLY FROM WHAT I'VE READ ONLINE, THEY ARE IN DENIAL. MOST REPORTS I'VE SEEN ONLINE ARE IN TEXAS AND FLORIDA. I'M REPORTING THIS ISSUE FROM ST. LOUIS, MO. *TR

MY SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING, ABS BRAKE LIGHT STAYS ON, RPM METER DANCES, AND AIR CONDITION POPS ON AND OFF, ALL OCCURRED AT THE SAME TIME. BY READING MANY POSTS THROUGHOUT THE INTERNET, IT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO SEVERAL 2007 CAMRY'S TO 2009. APPEARS TO BE THE ABS CONTROL MODULE? *TR

MY DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING FOR THE LAST 5 YEARS. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY. GLARE FROM THE SHINY CAUSES DISTRACTION ON THE ROAD. HARD TO SEE THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THE SHINE. DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS VERY STICKY. *TR

MELTING DASHBOARD. *TR

DASH BOARD IS MELTING, STICKY, NEEDS REPLACEMENT AND CREATING A GLARE, WHICH, IN TURN, CAUSES A REFLECTION THAT EFFECTS THE DRIVER FROM THE GLARE. THIS HAS BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

A FEW INCHES OF THE FRONT DASHBOARD AREA NEAREST THE FRONT WINDOW MELTED AND WOULD GET ON THE SUNSCREEN AND FROM THERE ON TO THE FRONT WINDOW. I SPOKE TO THE SERVICE PERSON AT MY DEALERSHIP AND ON THE ADVICE OF HIS MANAGER I SENT AN EMAIL TO TOYOTA. THEY ONLY OFFERED TO PAY FOR HALF OF THE REPLACEMENT COST. I HAD THE DASHBOARD REPLACED AND HAD TO PAY $688.70. *TR

I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A FRIEND. DID NOT REALIZE UNTIL AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR THAT THE DASHBOARD IS A LOT WORSE THAN I THOUGHT. IT IS GUMMY AND CRACKED ALL OVER. I BOUGHT THE CAR BECAUSE THE EXTERIOR LOOKS GREAT AND IT RUNS LIKE NEW, BUT THE DASHBOARD NOW APPEARS TO BE A REAL PROBLEM. IT WILL BE EXPENSIVE AND HOW DO I KNOW THE SAME THING WILL NOT HAPPEN TO THE NEW ONE. I ALONG WITH HUNDREDS AND SOON TO BE THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO FEEL TOYOTA SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT COULD TURN INTO A SAFETY ISSUE IF THE AIR BAGS ARE AFFECTED. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY DEVELOPED MELTED DASHBOARD. DASHBOARD BECAME SEVERELY STICKY AND GUMMY AND CONTINUALLY WORSENED. MELTED DASHBOARD CREATES A SIGNIFICANT GLARE ON WINDSHIELD WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD. MELTED DASHBOARD ALSO RAISES A CONCERN FOR PROPER OPERATION OF AIRBAGS. TOYOTA USA AND LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. ARTICLES/NEWS STORIES FROM HAWAII TO TEXAS AND FLORIDA HAVE PRESENTED A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND VARIOUS ONLINE COMPLAINTS AND DISCUSSIONS HIGHLIGHT A SIMILAR CONCERN. *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING AND CAUSING A HUGE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. IT LOOKS LIKE I SLATHERED BABY OIL ON THE FIRST 5 INCHES OF THE DASHBOARD. THIS CAUSES DIFFICULTY SEEING OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD ESPECIALLY IN THE FLORIDA SUN. THIS SHOULD BE A MANUFACTURE RECALL SINCE IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR DRIVERS. *TR

DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND CAUSES A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

DASH BOARD IS MELTING AND CRACKING, LOOKS AWFUL CANNOT BE TOUCHED BECAUSE IT IMMEDIATELY MAKES A MARK. IT IS SHINY AND CAUSES A GLARE ON WINDSHIELD. CANNOT BELIEVE HOW THE QUALITY OF A CAR AS IS THE TOYOTA CAN HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENING AND DOES NOTHING ABOUT, WHAT A GREAT WAY TO KEEP YOUR CLIENTS HAPPY!! *TR

A FEW MONTHS AGO, NOTICE THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY AND VERY SOFT, IT LOOKS LIKE MELT RUBBER. I HAD BEEN IN CAR WASHES AND AFTER A COUPLE OF HOURS THE MELTING SENSATION COMES BACK. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AWAY ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. *TR

I PURCHASED THE CAMRY BACK IN 2010. CAR WAS GREAT, LOOKED GREAT. DASH LOOKED GOOD, OR AT LEAST I THOUGHT THE DEALERS DETAILER MADE IT LOOK GOOD. SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, NOTICED THE DASH WAS INCREDIBLY STICKY. TOOK IT TO BACK TO THE DEALER I BOUGHT IT FROM AND EXTENDED WARRANTY WOULD NOT COVER THE DASHBOARD, AND IT WAS OUT OF MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY. TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALER TOO AND THEY SAID TOYOTA WOULD NOT COVER EITHER. THE DASH IS INCREDIBLY STICKY, LIKE THE GLUE THAT TOYOTA USED TO GLUE THE TOP MATERIAL DOWN ON THE DASH IS SEEPING THROUGH THE TOP LAYER. THE GLUE CREATES AN INCREDIBLE GLARE WHEN DRIVING, WHICH CAN BE INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS DURING SUNNY DAYS AS IT MAKES THINGS HARD TO SEE UNLESS YOU'RE WEARING A PAIR OF SUNGLASSES, AND EVEN SO THE GLARE IS STILL THERE. THE GLUE ALSO MAKES THINGS STICK TO THE DASH, MAKING IT INCREDIBLY HARD TO CLEAN AS WELL, WHICH CAN ALSO SHOW UP ON THE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I'VE NEVER USED ANY GREASY, OR OILY PRODUCTS TO CLEAN MY DASH AS I WAS WORRIED ABOUT MAKING THE GLUE/GLARE PROBLEM EVEN WORSE. I'M TEMPTED TO EITHER BUY A DASH COVER, WHICH IRONICALLY WILL STICK TO THE DASHBOARD, OR TINT MY WINDSHIELD TO KEEP THE GLARE DOWN. IT'S VERY DISAPPOINTING TOYOTA CHEAPED OUT ON THE MATERIAL USED IN THE DASH, THAT'S GOING TO HURT RESALE VALUE FOR ALL CAMRYS WITH THE ISSUE DOWN THE ROAD, AND CAN CREATE DANGEROUS CONDITIONS IF THE GLARE IS BAD ENOUGH FOR SOME PEOPLE. I MODERATE A TOYOTA FORUM AND I SEE THIS EXACT ISSUE POP UP A LOT. I'VE INCLUDED A FEW LINKS FOR REFERENCE.

IN EARLY 2014 OUR 2007 CAMRY 4-CYLINDER WAS GETTING A GENERAL LOOK OVER. IT WAS DISCOVERED THERE WAS BARELY ANY OIL TOUCHING THE TIP OF THE DIP STICK. WE IMMEDIATELY HAD THE OIL CHANGED BY A LOCAL MECHANIC. I THEN STATED TO HIM THAT THE DIP STICK WAS SHOWING A TINY AMOUNT OF OIL ON THE TIP OF THE STICK AND THAT IT SURELY HAD NO OIL. HE THEN TOLD ME THAT WHEN IT WAS DRAINED IT DID HAVE SOME OIL REMAINING. IT ALMOST SEEMS THAT THE DIPSTICK DOES NOT PROPERLY MEASURE THE OIL. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE MATTER AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE IS A GROWING ISSUE INVOLVING OIL CONSUMPTION ON THESE ENGINES ACROSS NUMEROUS MODELS. IT ALSO SEEMS BIZARRE THAT THEY STATE IN THE OWNERS MANUAL WHAT TOYOTA CONSIDERS NORMAL ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION: 1 QUART PER 1,200 MILES. IF THE CAR ONLY HOLDS SLIGHTLY OVER 4 LITERS AND THE SERVICE INTERVALS ARE 5,000 MILES IT SEEMS PRETTY OFF THAT THEY WOULD CALL THAT NORMAL. SINCE THE DISCOVERY OF THE OIL USAGE WE'VE KEPT A CLOSE EYE ON IT AND ARE ADDING OIL EVERY 1500 MILES. RECENTLY I HAVE BEEN NOTICING A LIGHT BLUE TINT TO THE EXHAUST WHEN THE CAR STARTS AND WHEN I DRIVE BEHIND IT GOING UP A HILL. ISSUING A RECALL WOULD CERTAINLY NOT HELP TOYOTAS RECENT RECALL HISTORY AND IT WOULD BE A EXPENSIVE THING TO FIX ON SO MANY EFFECTED VEHICLES BUT AT THIS POINT TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE TOLD TO RECALL THEM. THEY NEED TO ACT WITH INTEGRITY. *TR

I PURCHASED A NEW 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IN NOVEMBER 2006 FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND KEEP IT PARKED IN MY GARAGE WHEN IT'S NOT BEING USED. ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, THE HEAT OF THE SUN BEGAN MELTING MY DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD STARTED TO LOOK VERY GLOSSY AND SHINY AND FEEL VERY STICKY, LIKE GLUE. PARTS OF IT BEGAN TO PEEL. WHEN I AM DRIVING ON A HOT SUNNY DAY, THE SHINE OF THE DASHBOARD CREATES A GLARE ON MY WINDSHIELD THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AHEAD. I TOOK IT TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HOPING THAT THEY WOULD REPAIR IT AS IT IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT, BUT THEY SAID THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY AROUND $3,000 TO REPLACE THE DASH. THEY ALSO ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA CAMRY MODELS MANUFACTURED BETWEEN 2007 AND 2010, YET THEY NEVER ISSUED A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT'S CLEAR FROM THIS THAT IT WAS PERFECTLY FEASIBLE FOR THEM TO USE A DIFFERENT MATERIAL MADE TO WITHSTAND HEAT IN WARMER CLIMATES, BUT THEY DID NOT. THIS MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT IS HAZARDOUS AS IT CAN IMPAIR THE DRIVER'S VISION WHEN THE GLARE IS STRONG. I KINDLY REQUEST THAT THE NHTSA TAKE SOME ACTION TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD DEVELOPED A STICKY SUBSTANCE THAT WAS BUBBLING AND DETERIORATING. THE STICKY SUBSTANCE CREATED A GLARE, WHICH IMPACTED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
