WHEELS
I HAVE A NEW 2016 CAMRY SE WITH 417 MILES ON IT AND WHILE DRIVING ON THE HWY (TAMPA, FL) THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE WENT FLAT WITH NO PRESSURE WARNING. I PULLED OVER WITH IN SECONDS AND I HAD TO CHANGE THE TIRE. THERE WERE BULGES IN SEVERAL AREAS OF THE TIRE. I WANT BRIDGETON TO REPLACE MY TIRE FOR FREE. THIS IS A POOR QUALITY TIRE AND I SUSPECT THE OTHER TIRES MAY FAIL ALSO AND WILL NEED TO HAVE THE DEALER INSPECT ALL OF THEM.

I OWN THIS CAR FROM NOV 2015. I PARKED CAR AND GOT OUT, A SMALL WIND CAUSED THE DOOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE, OPEN TOO MUCH (I HAVE NEVER SEEN A CAR-DOOR OPENING THAT MUCH, THOUGH I OWNED MORE THAN 18 CARS IN 40 YEARS OF DRIVING IN US ROADS. IT WENT AND HIT AGAINST THE CAR PARKED ADJACENT NORMALLY THAT DOOR SHOULD NOT OPEN THAT WIDE, BECAUSE THERE MORE THAN NORMALLY HAS. I THINK IT HAS SOME PROBLEM WITH THE HINGE NOT HOLDING ENOUGH TO PREVENT THAT WIDE OPEN. IT WENT TO HIT THE MIRROR OF OTHER VEHICLE AND CAUSED DENT IN MY CAR. IT IS THE FIRST TIME THE DOOR WENT OUT THAT FAR.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE BRAKE LIGHTS DO NOT ILLUMINATE WHEN THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE IS ON AND THE VEHICLE IS SLOWED BY BRAKING MANEUVERS PERFORMED BY THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE WHEN A CAR TURNS INTO THE LANE AHEAD. FOR EXAMPLE, THE CAR MAY SLOW RAPIDLY 10-15MPH AND NO BRAKE LIGHTS WILL TURN ON. THIS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF A CRASH AS A RESULT OF NO WARNING TO THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BEHIND ME. THIS WAS CONFIRMED TODAY BY TOYOTA WHO INVESTIGATED AND STATED (GEORGE) THE BRAKE LIGHTS ONLY COME ON IN THE EVENT OF AN IMMINENT CRASH (IN FRONT), DESPITE THE FACT THAT THIS CREATE A PROBLEM FOR THE DRIVER BEHIND.

I PURCHASED A NEW 2016 CAMRY LE FROM MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ON 02.21.2016. ON 02.29.2016, I RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE PROBLEMS I WAS FACING WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR, PRIMARILY: SLOW-DRAGGING ACCELERATION ALONG WITH TRANSMISSION SHIFTING INSTABILITY. WHILE DRIVING TO DROP MY WIFE TO WORK ON THE MORNING OF 02.28.2016 I BEGAN NOTICING INCONSISTENCIES IN MY VEHICLE'S ACCELERATION. AS THE TRAFFIC LIGHT (EXITING MY SUBDIVISION) TURNED GREEN, I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL AND IMMEDIATELY FELT HESITATION IN THE ACCELERATION ALONG WITH STIFFNESS IN THE STEERING WHEEL, GIVING THE CAR A HEAVY/DRAGGING FEELING (EVEN AFTER ATTEMPTING TO APPLY EXTRA PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL). AFTER DRIVING IN THIS SLUGGISH CONDITION FOR ABOUT A QUARTER-MILE, I FELT A BOOST IN MY CAR'S ACCELERATION, CAUSING A SUDDEN INCREASE IN SPEED FORCING ME TO APPLY MY BRAKES TO REGAIN CONTROL OF MY CAR'S MOVEMENT. THROUGHOUT THE REMAINDER OF THE DAY I KEPT EXPERIENCING THIS FLUCTUATION IN ACCELERATION (BOOST/SLUGGISH) WITH NORMAL DRIVING FUNCTIONS RETURNING PERIODICALLY. THE FOLLOWING DAY I TOOK MY CAR IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE CHECKED. ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, "VEHICLE IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED"; WHEREAS, THE ABOVE MENTIONED COMPLAINT IS STILL ONGOING. MULTIPLE FAILED ATTEMPTS TO REACH A RESOLUTION THRU MANAGEMENT AND CUSTOMER RELATIONS AT THE DEALERSHIP THUS FAR HAVE FORCED ME TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE MY NEW CAR IN THIS CONDITION TO BE ABLE TO FULFILL PERSONAL/FAMILY REQUIREMENTS (AS THIS IS THE ONLY CAR I HAVE). THIS HAS BEEN CAUSING ME A GREAT DEAL OF STRESS AND MENTAL ANGUISH IN REGARDS TO MY NUMBER ONE CONCERN: "SAFETY". NOT ONLY DO I FEEL UNSAFE PUTTING MY LIFE AT RISK WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR, I ALSO FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE RISKING THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY/PASSENGERS AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AROUND ME, AS THIS MECHANICAL DEFECT REMAINS PERSISTENT AND IS GRADUALLY WORSENING.

THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM HAS FAILED 3 TIMES IN SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ON NOVEMBER 23 2015. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE REPAIR 3 SEPARATE TIMES AND IS ABOUT TO GO INTO REPAIR FOR THE FOURTH TIME. THE DEALER HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS THE LAST TIME AND THE ISSUE STILL HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. WHEN THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM FAILS IT STOPS WORKING ENTIRELY. THIS HAPPENS TO THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING, THE BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM STOPS WORKING. THE VEHICLE IS A 2016 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WITH 1074 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER DOES NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX THIS, AND NEEDS FURTHER SUPPORT DIRECTLY FROM TOYOTA USA TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I'VE INCLUDED 3 PHOTOS OF THE ERROR MESSAGE THAT APPEARS ON THE MESSAGE CONSOLE.
