POWER TRAIN
IN EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER (LESS THAN 20 DEGREES)THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS WHEN FIRST DRIVEN IN THE MORNING AFTER MINIMUM 4 MINUTES IDLING. ENGINE RPM 3000 VEHICLE SPEED 1-2 MPH. TRANSMISSION WILL SLOWLY ENGAGE AS ENGINE WARMS UP. ALSO ENGINE AND STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT COME ON WHILE TRANSMISSION SLIPS. TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SLIP ON EVERY COLD DAY IT HAPPENS WHENEVER. IN WARM WEATHER, ALSO WHEN THE ENGINE IS WARMED UP THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS. TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED WITH A REBUILT FROM TOYOTA BUT IT STILL HAPPENS JUST A LITTLE LESS OFTEN. A YEAR LATER DECEMBER 2014 COLD WEATHER COMING , I'M AFRAID THE TRANSMISSION WILL SLIP AGAIN. THE LOCAL TOYOTA SHOP SHOULD BE CONSIDERING AN ELECTRICAL OR COMPUTER PROBLEM. *TR

PROBLEM WITH DASHBOARD STICKY/MELTING/RESIDUE. NEVER USED CLEANING AGENTS ON IT. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, WITH LESS THAN 32,000 MILES. CREATES A TERRIBLE GLARE ON WINDSHIELD, MAKING DRIVING DANGEROUS. DEALER IS ONLY ONE WHO HAS EVER SERVICED MY VEHICLE..THEY STATE THEY KNOW NOTHING OF THIS PROBLEM..THEIR BODY SHOP ALSO IS OBLIVIOUS TO PROBLEM (THEY TRIED AN INDUSTRIAL CLEANER TO TRY TO WIPE IT OFF. (TO NO AVAIL). NOW I FIND THAT I AM NOT ALONE IN THIS PROBLEM...THE INTERNET FORUM IS "REPLETE" WITH CAR OWNERS OF DIFFERENT MAKES/MODELS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM WHETHER THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION HAS BEEN GARAGED OR NOT. PLEASE HELP...ON A "FIXED" INCOME, CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THIS DASHBOARD AND MY VEHICLE IS IN "PRISTINE" CONDITION WITH LOW MILEAGE/EXCELLENT CARE. THIS PROBLEM MORE THAN WARRANTS A "RECALL" AS SO MANY (MYRIAD) CAR OWNERS ARE NOW COMING FORWARD WITH THIS COMPLAINT. ONLY WITHIN THE LAST YEAR HAS THIS PROBLEM CROPPED UP ON MY VEHICLE, WHICH IS 5 YEARS OLD BUT ONLY HAS UNDER 32,000 MILES. UPDATED 12/10/14. *JB

DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY STICKY EVEN IN MILD TEMPERATURES AND OBSCURES VISION WHEN DRIVING INTO SUN DUE TO GLARE. GLARE IS CAUSING EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. GLARE IS ALSO CAUSING EYE STRAIN DUE TO INTENSE FOCUS NEEDED TO DRIVE LEADING TO SEVERE HEADACHES. *TR

DASH HAS A STICKY/GOOEY FEEL TO IT. TRIED SEVERAL PRODUCTS TO REMOVE STICKINESS THEN REALIZED DASH IS ACTUALLY MELTING AND THIS IS GLUE COMING UP THROUGH THE DASH ITSELF. THIS MAKES THE DASH VERY SHINY AND CAUSES A TERRIBLE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD CAUSING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD! SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT FROM NOT BEING TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

SUSPENSION
AT 46,000 MILES I HAD PROBLEMS WITH ROAD NOISE, SO I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP ( RICHARDSON TOYOTA IN RICHARDSON, TEXAS) AND HAD THEM LOOK AT WHAT WAS CAUSING THE NOISE. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS A TIRE PROBLEM, THEY ROTATED THEM TOLD ME EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. THEN ABOUT A COUPLE OF MONTHS LATER I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE THE TIRES ROTATED AGAIN, I WENT TO TIRE SHOP IN MCKINNEY, TEXAS RATHER THAN GOING TO THE DEALER. THEY ASKED ME TO COME OUT AND LOOK AT THE STRUTS AND THE TIRES. THE TIRES WERE CUPPING BECAUSE THE STRUTS WERE LEAKING SO BADLY THEY WEREN'T KEEPING THE FRONT END LEVEL. I THEN CALLED THE DEALER AND TOOK THE CAR IN FOR THE PROBLEM, WHICH UPON ARRIVAL WAS TOLD THE STRUTS WERE FINE, AND THAT TOYOTA SAID THE LEAKAGE WAS ACCEPTABLE FROM BETWEEN 10-15%. THEY RECOMMENDED NEW TIRES AND IF I WANTED TO REPLACE THE STRUTS THEY WOULD DO IT FOR ABOUT $1,000 TO $1,200 W/OUT TIRES. MY CAR WAS A CERTIFIED TOYOTA WHICH THEY WOULDN'T COVER ANY STRUT REPLACEMENT. I TOLD THEM WHY WOULD I BUY THE SAME TOYOTA PARTS AND HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM IN ANOTHER 35-40K MILES. IT WAS VERY DISAPPOINTING FOR SOMEONE WHO SOLD TOYOTA'S FOR 3 YEARS. *TR

I LIVE IN S. FLORIDA, AND OVER THE PAST YEAR, I'VE NOTICED THAT MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING FASTER AND FASTER EVERYDAY. IT ALSO IS VERY SHINY IN THE WORST AREAS AND IS VERY STICKY. IF I TOUCH IT, THE BLACK GUMMY/GOOEY SURFACE COMES OFF ON MY FINGER. PREVIOUSLY, I HAVE NOT USED ANY PRODUCTS TO CLEAN IT OTHER THAN A DAMP CLOTH (WITH WATER ONLY). OF COURSE, NOW I CAN'T CLEAN IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, AS I CAN'T AFFORD TO REPLACE IT. I BELIEVE THE MANUFACTURER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING IT AS THEY SOLD A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT. I'VE LIVED HERE FOR MORE THAN 25 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY OTHER CAR I'VE OWNED, SOME OF WHICH WERE MANY YEARS OLDER THAT MY CURRENT 4-YEAR-OLD TOYOTA CAMRY. IN ADDITION, WHEN DRIVING AT MORE THAN 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKES EVEN SLIGHTLY, AND THE CAR VIBRATES. I'VE HAD IT CHECKED TWICE BY A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM EVERYTHING IS FINE AND IT'S JUST THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM FUNCTIONING. HOWEVER, THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. IT FEELS UNSAFE TO ME, AND I DON'T BUY THEIR EXPLANATION. AFTER GOOGLING THE PROBLEM, THERE SEEMS TO BE OTHERS WITH THIS PROBLEM ON THE SAME CAR. IT HAS BEEN SUGGESTED THAT THE ROTOR IS TOO SMALL FOR THE INCREASED CAMRY SIZE AND THUS BECOMES WARPED. THIS ALSO SHOULD BE EXAMINED AND REPLACED FREE OF COST BY THE MANUFACTURER IF THIS IS THE CAUSE. IN ANY CASE, TOYOTA SHOULD BE FORCED TO LOOK INTO THESE PROBLEMS AND SOLVE THEM WITH NO COST TO THE OWNERS. MANY OF US NO LONGER HAVE WARRANTIES. *TR

DASH-BOARD IS LIKE LIQUID WAX. I HAD A PIECE OF PAPER ON DASHBOARD WENT TO PICK UP AND MY FINGERNAIL TOOK A CHUNK OUT OF THE DASHBOARD. I TRIED TO VACUUM THE DUST ON IT BUT NOTHING PICKED UP, BECAUSE DUST WAS STUCK FAST AND VACUUM WAS LEAVING PERMANENT LINES ON THE DASH. EXTREMELY STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND LOOKS TERRIBLE WITH ALL THE DIRT STUCK FAST. *TR

I HAVE A STICKY DASHBOARD. BESIDES PUTTING A VERY SHINY REFLECTION ON MY WINDSHIELD, IT HAS BECOME VERY WEAK TO THE POINT THAT EVEN A TAP WITH MY FINGERNAIL REMOVES PIECES OFF. IT IS VERY CONCERNING. WHEN I QUESTIONED TOYOTA YEARS AGO THEY WERE WILLING TO CHANGE IT AT NO LABOR COST BUT I WOULD HAVE TO BUY THE PIECE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

ENGINE, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WITHIN APPROXIMATELY TWO MINUTES OF A COLD START HAD JUST MADE A LEFT TURN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. WAS ACCELERATING THROUGH APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH WHEN THE CAR STALLED. RPM DROPPED FROM 2,000 TO NEAR ZERO AND SPEED DROPPED FROM 20 TO APPROXIMATELY 10. THE STALL LASTED A FEW SECONDS AND THEN THE ENGINE SPEED INCREASED AND THE CAR DROVE FINE FROM THERE. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THREE WEEKS. *TR
