POWER TRAIN
FREQUENT HESITATION IN ACCELERATION AFTER SLOWING DOWN AND THEN RE-ACCELERATING. ALSO HESITATES AFTER TURNING OR ENTERING ON A HIGHWAY ON-RAMP. HAVE REPORTED PROBLEM NUMEROUS TIMES TO DEALER AND HAVE BEEN TOLD NO PROBLEM CAN BE DETECTED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, AS I HAVE BEEN NEARLY REAR-ENDED SEVERAL TIMES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE FRONT DOOR LOCKS NO LONGER OPERATE BY REMOTE. THIS IS NOT A REMOTE PROBLEM SINCE MY REAR DOOR LOCKS DO RESPOND. I BELIEVE THE FRONT DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THE REPAIRS FOR THIS WILL COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN CALIFORNIA. I THINK THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM.

CAR SHAKES AT LOW SPEEDS, WHAT'S TOLD BY DEALER THAT IT IS A TORQUE CONVERTER WHICH IS NOT COVERED FOR MY CAR. THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME THIRTY NINE HUNDRED.

POWER TRAIN
THE VEHICLE WAS ON THE STREETS AND HIGHWAYS AT SPEEDS OF 30 TO 50 MPH. THE 2014 CAMRY HAS AN ABRUPT DEACCELERATION AND SHUDDER CAUSING OTHER VEHICLES FOLLOWING BEHIND ME TO APPLY SUDDEN BRAKES THAT CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES TO DRIVERS. PRIOR TO PURCHASING, I CONTACTED RICHARDSON TX DEALERSHIP AND PROVIDED VIN AND MILEAGE 164K TO SERVICE ADVISER. SERVICE ADVISER SAID NO PROBLEM, TOYOTA WILL COVER THE TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE SINCE I WAS ADVISED IT WAS COVERED. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE REPAIR AND THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WOULD NOT REPAIR THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE MILEAGE BEING OVER 150,000 MILES. I CONTACTED CORPORATE OFFICE VIA PHONE. CANDY, THE TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE VIEWS MY PROFILE ON TOYOTA.COM AND CONFIRMS VIN AND MILEAGE AND STATES IT IS COVERED AND CALLS DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP TELLS CANDY IT WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR COST AND CORPORATE WILL NEED TO ABSORB THE COST. CANDY ESCALATES PROBLEM TO CUSTOMER RELATIONS MANAGER, JONATHON. I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA CORPORATE SUPERVISOR, MONIQUE VIA PHONE. MONIQUE ASKS FOR COST OF REPAIRS FROM DEALERSHIP 'BEFORE APPROVING ANYTHING.' JONATHON, THE CUSTOMER RELATIONS MANAGER PROVIDES THE COST TO CORPORATE. THEN TOYOTA CORPORATE SUPERVISOR, MONIQUE DENIES COST TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. SEVERAL DAYS AND PHONE CALLS AND MISLEADING INFORMATION FROM DEALERSHIP AND CORPORATE AND NOW I AM STUCK WITH A 2014 CAMRY XLE REQUIRING TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT AFTER CORPORATE AND DEALERSHIP PERSONNELS PROVIDED WRONG INFORMATION. THE PREVIOUS OWNER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT REPAIR AND DID NOT SUBMIT THE VEHICLE FOR REPAIRS PRIOR TO MY OWNERSHIP. THIS TORQUE CONVERTER MALFUNCTION IS WELL DOCUMENTED. IT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND SHOULD BE A RECALL INSTEAD OF JUST A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW, I HAVE BEEN SMELLING A MILDEW ODOR COMING FROM MY VENTS. I VACUUMED THE INTERIOR CARPETS WITH BAKING SODA AND SPRAYED THE VENTS WITH LYSOL. I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND UNDER THE CAR FOR ANY LEAKAGE. NOTHING. I ALSO CHANGED MY CABIN AIR FILTER AGAIN. NO POSITIVE RESULTS. MY LAST OPTION WAS TO GOOGLE TOYOTA ODOR COMPLAINTS AND BINGO, OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THIS CERTAINLY IS A PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA SHOULD ADDRESS AND REPAIR, WITHOUT COST TO THE CAR OWNER.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
SIRIUS XM RADIO HAS A RADIO DEVICE FOR CARS THAT DO NOT HAVE A BUILT IN XM RADIO. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT COMES WITH A 20 FOOT CORD. IT IS MEANT TO BE PLACED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CORD GOES THROUGH THE CAR AND IS PLACED ON TOP OF THE CAR. MY CORD GOT STUCK IN MY STEERING WHEEL AND SNAPPED THE CLOCK SPRING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AS ALL MY CAPABILITIES WERE RESTRICTED. MY HORN, AIRBAG AND CONTROLS WERE NOT OPERABLE. THIS WAS BECAUSE THE CLOCK SPRING GOT SEVERED. IT IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

SUSPENSION
MY CAR DEVELOPED A VIBRATION IN THE FRONT END. THIS OCCURRED ESPECIALLY WHEN TURNING. I BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC FOR REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION WAS VERY NEAR TO COMING APART - WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR. THIS SEAMS VERY SIMILAR TO THE ISSUE COVERED UNDER NHTSA RECALL NOTICE 14V715000, HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SCOPE OF THAT RECALL SO PERHAPS THAT NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES MOVE ABOUT 10 FEET AND THEN HESITATE FOR ABOUT 1 TO 2 SECONDS. IT WILL THEN ACCELERATE NORMALLY. ONE TIME THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO ABOUT 20 MPH AND THEN THE ENGINE RPM RETURNED TO IDLE. THE ACCELERATOR WAS PUSHED TO THE FLOOR AND THE RPM REMAINED AT IDLE. THE ACCELERATOR WAS RELEASED AND PUSHED DOWN AGAIN. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED NORMALLY. THIS HAPPENED ONLY ONE TIME. THE INTERMITTENT HESITATION IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO CROSS A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN THE CROSS TRAFFIC IS UNCONTROLLED.

SEAT BELTS
MY SEATBELT WILL NOT STAY IN THE SLOT AFTER I BUCKLE IT. IT CLICKS, THE LIGHT GOES OUT AND THEN IT STARTS SLIDING OUT, AND THE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE BEEPING STARTS. I HAVE TO HOOK IT IN THE SLOT FOR THE PASSENGER SEATBELT TO GET IT TO STAY. THIS IS WHILE I AM DRIVING. IT WON'T STAY WHEN NOT DRIVING. I AM HAVING TO PAY $162 TO HAVE WHAT SHOULD BE AN UNBREAKABLE PART REPLACED AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS IS HAPPENING A LOT. I OWN TWO OLDER CARS, A 97 LINCOLN AND A 90 MIATA AND THOSE SEATBELTS WORK FINE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
FIRST NOTICED LAST YEAR 2018. HEAT AND A/C CONTROLS SEEMED TO BE FLUCTUATING. A/C STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR A FEW TIMES, UNTIL I STARTED DRIVING A FEW MORE MILES, WORKED SOMEWHAT. NOW MARCH 2019, A/C SEEMED TO BE GETTING WARM IT IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR AND THE OUTSIDE AIR CONTROL STAYS ON BUT SHOULD NOT WITH THE A/C CONTROL. HEAT SEEMS TO WORK ON AND OFF, JUST NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS IS ALL WHILE DRIVING. I LEASED THIS CAR, THE ONLY OWNER, GARAGED AND ONLY 41K MILES. I ALSO GOT A WEIRD SMELL ONE TIME BUT CAN'T REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS. I AM GOING TO CALL FLEMINGTON TOYOTA AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY. PROBABLY NOT COVERED. I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS AND THAT IS SO DISTRESSING AND DISHEARTENING.

WHILE GOING DOWN HILL THE TRANSMISSION WILL DOWNSHIFT ON IT'S OWN TO LOWER GEARS AND SPEED. WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE FROM A SLOWER SPEED THE TRANSMISSION SLAMS INTO GEAR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE DEALER SAID THEY CAN'T GET IT TO DO IT, AND THAT THERE ARE NO CODES. IT'S IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN YOU SLOW DOWN THEN TRY TO ACCELERATE. IT'S NOW HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY.
