STRUCTURE:BODY, TIRES:TEMPORARY/EMERGENCY SPARE TIRE
ON OR ABOUT THE ABOVE DATE OF APRIL 15, 2015 I WASHED MY 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY AT A LOCAL CAR WASH USING THEIR AUTOMATED HIGH PRESSURE WASH AND WAX. A FEW DAYS AFTERWARD I REALIZED THE CENTER TRUNK AREA, THAT HOLDS THE SPARE TIRE, HELD 2 TO 3 INCHES OF WATER, AND THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE TRUNK ALSO HAD WATER. I HAVE READ POST AFTER POST ONLINE STATING MANY OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, AND SOME HAVE STATED THE REAR WINDOW AND BODY PANELS WERE NOT SECURELY SEALED FROM THE OUTSIDE ELEMENTS WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ASSEMBLED AT THE FACTORY. IN JUNE OF 2014 WATER WAS GETTING INSIDE ON THE CARPET ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SOAKING THE CARPET COMPLETELY. THE AIR CONDITIONER CONDENSATION DRAINAGE TUBE HAD PLUGGED UP UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE THAT CAUSED THE INTERIOR BY THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE TO BE SOAKED IN WATER. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS EVER INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE ODOMETER JUST RECENTLY TURNED OVER 45,145 MILES. NOW, THERE IS ALREADY AN INDICATION OF MOLD, AND MOLD CAN BE DEADLY. *TR

SEATS, ENGINE
I HAVE NOTICED THAT WHEN DRIVING AND STOPPING MY DRIVER SEAT SHIFTS AND MOVE. NOT SURE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS ISSUE. I AM HAVING THE ISSUE WITH THE STICKY DASHBOARD AND READ THAT IT IS FROM THE MELTING OF THE DASHBOARD, YET THE YEAR OF MY CAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST TO GET IF CORRECTED. I JUST NOTICED THAT WHEN I START MY CAR YOU HAVE A NOISE COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AGAIN NOT SURE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS ISSUE OR NOT. MY AC BUTTON WILL SHOW THAT IT IS ON BUT IT ACTUALLY IS ON. IT IS LIKE THE SENSOR IS GOING OUT ON IT. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAVE BEEN OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR LAST 5 YRS. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SPEED EVERY TIME I GO TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. I HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE DOWN HILL SPEED. EVEN IF YOU PUT THE CRUISE CONTROL ON 45MIL/HR STILL CAR GETS SPEED UP TO 90 TO 100 MILES.ON FLAT ROAD CAR DOESN'T SLOW DOWN EVEN YOU DO NOT PUSH GAS PADDLE. THE DEALER SAID IT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DOWN THE HILL EVEN IF YOU USE CRUISE CONTROL. I WILL TAKE SOME BODY WITH ME AND VIDEO RECORDING AND POST ON LINE. I HAVE BEEN THIS PROBLEM SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA FOR THIS BUT NO RESULT. MY WIFE SCARE TO DRIVE THIS CAR. PLEASE ADVISE ME HOW TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE OR HOW TO SEEK LEGAL ADVISE. I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING BACK FROM YOU. *JS

VISIBILITY/WIPER
WHILE DRIVING WITH SUN SHINING INTO MY EYES, I PULLED DOWN THE SUN VISOR BUT IT BROKE AND FAILED TO STAY IN POSITION ANY MORE. THE SUN VISOR JUST HANG DOWNWARD TO BLOCK MY VISION AND I HAD TO USE ONE HAND TO HOLD IT UP WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY CONCERN WITH THE BROKEN SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE. DRIVER HAVE TO HOLD THE SUN VISOR WITH ONE HAND AND LEAVE ONE HAND TO DRIVE. THIS IMPACT THE SAFETY IN DRIVING. *TR

STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THREE OF THE FOUR DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED. THE FAILURES BEGIN INTERMITTENTLY AND THEN RESULT IN TOTAL FAILURE. THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND REAR DRIVER SIDE DOOR HAVE TOTALLY FAILED. THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR NOW INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. TOYOTA INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE NO RECALLS OR EXTENDED WARRANTIES. INTERNET SEARCHES SHOW THAT MULTIPLE TOYOTA MODELS HAVE THIS AS A COMMON FAILURE. THIS POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DOOR LOCKS DO NOT RESPOND TO THE ELECTRICAL UNLOCK / LOCK BUTTON AND DO NOT RESPOND TO THE REMOTE. MANUAL UNLOCK STILL WORKS; HOWEVER, IN THE CASE OF SMALL CHILDREN OR USE OF THE CHILD SAFETY LOCKS, THIS WILL LIKELY NOT BE AN OPTION. I HAVE REGISTERED A COMPLAINT CASE WITH TOYOTA USA. TOYOTA USA INDICATED THAT NOTHING WILL BE DONE BY THEM AT THIS TIME. THEY WILL NOTIFY ME IF THEY ISSUE A RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY IN THE FUTURE. *TR

2010 CAMRY - BOUGHT NEW. TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ALL SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES & SERVICE. REPLACED NEW MICHELIN TIRES (RATED 60,000 MILES) AT 32,000 MILES THAT WORE OUT UNEVENLY. WE NOTED THAT OUR VANS WHICH HAVE MORE ROLL THAN A CAR AND ARE MORE HEAVILY LOADED, USUALLY GO AT LEAST 55,000 AND THAT THEY WEAR MORE EVENLY. SINCE THE DEALERSHIP WAS CHECKING EVERYTHING, IT DID NOT OCCUR TO US THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE STRUTS SINCE THE CAR WAS SO NEW AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT NEVER ALERTED US.SUDDENLY, AT 50,000 MILE CHECK UP, WE WERE INFORMED ALL 4 STRUTS ARE AT #2 AND MUST BE REPLACED. THIS IS A LIGHTLY DRIVEN CAR. ( 2 DRIVERS AND 3 VEHICLES.) THESE ARE MAINLY HIGHWAY MILES IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA AND WE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLES. WE NEVER LOAD IT AND RARELY HAVE MORE THAN 1 PERSON IN THE CAR. WE HAVE NEVER EVEN NEEDED A BRAKE JOB AND HAVE 70% LEFT ON OUR BRAKE PADS. AFTER LOOKING ON LINE I NOTICED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH MANY CAMRYS AFTER 2007. I CONTACTED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS AND AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION, THEY OFFERED $750 DISCOUNT IF WE HAVE IT SERVICED AT A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. .DEALERSHIP ESTIMATES RANGE AROUND $1800 +. I CONTEND THAT SINCE TOYOTA DOES NOT RECOMMEND ANYTHING BE DONE WITH LEAKING STRUTS UNTIL THEY ARE TOTALLY SHOT, THEY DID NOT TELL US THAT ANYTHING WAS WRONG WHILE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. TIRES PREMATURELY WEARING AND WHY WOULD ALL 4 STRUTS SUDDENLY FAIL IF THESE WERE NOT DEFECTIVE? WHY WOULD TOYOTA SAY STRUTS THAT LEAK AT ALL ARE NORMAL? SINCE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE, TOYOTA NEEDS TO STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS. THIS IS NOT STANDARD MAINTENANCE - IT IS A DEFECT. SINCE TOYOTA IS ARBITRARILY DECIDING, WE WOULD APPRECIATE A CONSUMER ADVOCATE TO ASSIST US. WE ARE FINE WITH NORMAL MAINTENANCE COSTS AND IF IT WERE OLDER OR WITH MORE MILEAGE, WE WOULD NOT BE SO UPSET ABOUT THIS MAJOR PART FAILURE. *TR
