POWER TRAIN
DRIVING ON A SMOOTH ROAD WHEN CAR REACHES BETWEEN 35 AND 40 MILES PER HOUR THE TRANSMISSION STARTS TO SHUDDLE MAKING IT SEEMS LIKE YOU ARE DRIVING ON A BUMPY ROAD FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS WHICH IS SCARY WHEN U FEEL THE VIBRATION.

STRUCTURE:BODY
I LIKE TOYOTAS AND HAVE TWO CAMRYS. I PREVIOUSLY HAD 3 TOYOTAS. USUALLY THEY ARE VERY GOOD, BUILT WELL, UPKEEP GOOD, LAST LONG AND TOYOTA STANDS BEHIND THEM, USUALLY. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR OF HAVING THE LAST TOYOTA CAMRY SE, I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE BUMPER POPPED OUT. ONE GOOD HIT TO THE CORRECT SPOT AND IT FELL IN PLACE, FOR A WHILE, THEN IT WOULD CONSISTENTLY POP OUT MORE FREQUENTLY. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A WHILE, THEN ONE DAY I WAS AT TOYOTA FOR A RECALL OF SOMETHING ELSE AND I ASKED IF I COULD BUY A CLIP TO CORRECT THE BUMPER FROM POPPING OUT. THEY SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THEM AND PROBABLY THE WHOLE BUMPER, WHICH WAS GOOD OTHERWISE, WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAD ME TALK TO THEIR BODY SHOP SALESMAN AND HE CONFIRMED WHAT THEY HAD SAID. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A WHILE MORE, UNTIL THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON THE OTHER SIDE. KNOWING WHAT I HAD FOUND OUT, THERE WAS NO REASON TO GO TO THE DEALER AGAIN, SO I WROTE A LETTER TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE. I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AND MY VIEW THAT BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A LOW FRONT END PROFILE CAR, THE WAY IT WAS DESIGNED MADE IT INEVITABLE THAT THIS OCCURRENCE WOULD HAPPEN AND I ASKED WHAT COULD THEY DO FOR THIS OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I GO BACK TO THE DEALER. I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING AS OF YET, BUT I SEE ONLINE THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND TO THE NHTSA. THEY MUST FIND A WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, BECAUSE IT CAN WORSEN AS THE BUMPER MAY COME OUT MORE. TOYOTA AND THE DEALER MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM, NOT THE CONSUMER.

SEATS:FRONT ASSEMBLY:SEAT HEATER/COOLER
NEWS RELEASE THAT TOYOTA DEALERS STOP SEALING 2013 AND 14 TOYOTA CAMRYS AS WELL AS 5 OTHER VEHICLE STYLES DUE TO THE FLAME RETARDANT MATERIALS IN THE HEATED SEATS ARE NOT APPROVED BY THE FDA. MY CONCERN IS DOES THIS FLAME RETARDANT MATERIAL GIVE OFF A VAPOR OR FUME WHEN THE SEAT HEATER IS OPERATED. I AM DIAGNOSED AS MULTIPLE CHEMICAL SENSITIVE AND MY EYES BURN OR ARE IRRITATED, AS WELL AS I EXPERIENCE BREATHING IRRITATION WHEN THE SEATS ARE OPERATIONAL. I HAVE STOPPED USING THE SEATS SINCE THE NEWS RELEASE (LAST 2 DAYS) BUT STILL NOTICE MILDER IRRITATION. I HAVE NOTICED THIS SINCE AROUND OCTOBER 2013, WHICH WOULD BE THE START OF COOLER WEATHER IN COLORADO. IS A CHEMICAL VAPOR PRODUCED, DOES IT INFILTRATE THE CAR INTERIOR? *JS

VEHICLE HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING. SHORTLY AFTER STARTING MY CAR, MY CAR WILL HESITATE TO ACCELERATE AT AROUND 20 MPH. IT WILL NOT SHIFT INTO GEAR AND EVEN IF I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO THE FLOOR, IT STILL WILL NOT GO. I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE PEDAL AND PUSH IT REPEATEDLY TO GET IT TO GO. FINALLY IT WILL CATCH UP AND DO SO VICIOUSLY. I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN TO ME WHILE PULLING OUT ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. I HAVE A 14 MONTH OLD DAUGHTER WHO RIDES IN THE BACKSEAT AND I FEEL SO UNSAFE. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND TO ONE OTHER MECHANIC AND THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE NOR ARE ANY CODES BEING THROWN. PLEASE RECALL THIS VEHICLE. ALSO, THIS HAPPENS A LOT WHEN GOING AT A STEEP INCLINE.

ON NOVEMBER 25, 2014 MY MOTHER WAS KILLED WHEN HER 2013 KEYLESS IGNITION TOYOTA CAMRY ROLLED DOWN HER DRIVEWAY AND PINNED HER UNDERNEATH. SHE HAD JUST DRIVEN INTO HER GARAGE AND NEGLECTED TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THE GARAGE HAD A VERY SLIGHT INCLINE, BUT THE DRIVEWAY WAS MUCH STEEPER. SHE HAD WALKED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY TO PICK UP A NEWSPAPER AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN THE GARAGE. I JUST SAW AN ARTICLE SAYING THAT A PARK IT ACT HAD BEEN INTRODUCED INTO CONGRESS. I WOULD LIKE TO BE SURE THAT MY MOTHER IS INCLUDED IN THE STATISTICS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE DIED BECAUSE OF ROLLAWAY CAR ACCIDENTS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANOTHER METHOD I SHOULD USE TO DO THIS. YOUR AGENCY WAS CITED IN THE ARTICLE I READ. THAT'S WHY I AM CONTACTING YOU. THANK YOU

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
MY BOYFRIEND WAS DRIVING MY 2013 TOYOTA CAMRY SE ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN OUT OF WITHOUT WARNING THE ABS, BRAKE AND TRACTION LIGHTS CAME ON; THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTENED AND HE COULD BARELY GET THE CAR TO TURN ONTO THE ON RAMP TO GET OFF AT THE NEXT EXIT. WE ALSO REALIZED THAT THE AIR CONDITIONING IS NO LONGER WORKING AS WELL THE GAUGES ON THE DASHBOARD. CONSIDERING WE WERE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND THE POWER STEERING BASICALLY BECAME INOPERABLE, IT WAS VERY SCARY AND UNSAFE. I SPOKE WITH TOYOTA ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE 2013 VEHICLES FOR THE AIR CONDITIONING CONDENSER AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN THAT PROBLEM. HOWEVER THE CAR WAS REPAIRED FOR THAT RECALL IN 2014, WHICH WAS PRIOR TO ME OWNING THE CAR. AFTER, THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAIR UNDER A RECALL, THERE'S A ONE YEAR WARRANTY ON THAT REPAIR. SO WE'RE BASICALLY OUT OF LUCK AND HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS REPAIR OURSELVES.

WHEELS
PURCHASED USED CAMRY FROM CHRYSLER/DODGE/JEEP/RAM, 8701 ABERCORN ST., SAVANNAH, GA. THE DEALERSHIP HAD REPLACED THE TIRES, 4 EACH, WITH NEXEN NPR/Z AH5, 215/55R17, MAER 4618, DOT 8E8V. MY PURCHASE DATE WAS 11FEB2019 AND THE VEHICLE HAD 59,554 MILES. AT 60,325 MILES (729 MILES ON THE TIRES), DRIVING BACK FROM THE LICENSE PLATE OFFICE AT APPROXIMATELY 45MPH, I HEARD AIR EXITING MY LEFT FRONT TIRE AND THEN THE TIRE WAS IMMEDIATELY FLAT. I TOOK THE SAID TIRE TO CDJR DEALERSHIP FOR A TIRE REPLACEMENT AND THE ACCUSED ME OF HITTING A POTHOLE, NO POTHOLE WAS HIT AND EVENTUALLY THE DEALER REPLACED THE TIRE WITH NO FURTHER ISSUES. TIS PAST FRIDAY NIGHT AFTER COMING HOME FROM WORK (05/31/2019) GETTING MY PERSONAL EQUIPMENT FROM MY CAR AND WITH 63,052 (3456 MILES), I NOTICED A BULGE ON THE RIGHT HAND TIRE AT NIGHT, NO POTHOLE HAS BEEN HIT. THE BULGE IS SIMILAR TO THE TIRE THAT BLEW OUT, THE BEAD IS SEPARATING FROM THE WHEEL. I HAVE HAD 2 OF 4 NEXEN 215/55R17 THAT HAVE FAILED AND THESE TIRES SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED ON OUR HIGHWAY SYSTEM, VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IF DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TOMORROW TO INSTALL GOODYEAR TIRES AND BE RID OF THE NEXEN BRAND, VERY BAD TIRES, THANK YOU.

ON APRIL 1, 2019, WHEN GETTING INTO MY CAR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, IN MY DRIVEWAY AND MY GRANDDAUGHTER GETTING IN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, SHE SHUT THE DOOR. THE SOUND I HEARD WHEN SHE SHUT THE DOOR I HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE. IT SOUNDED LIKE SHE HAD MAYBE GRAZED AN EMPTY PLASTIC WATER BOTTLE AS SHE SHUT THE DOOR. I DIDNT THINK MUCH ABOUT IT AGAIN UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES LATER WHEN WE STOPPED AT A CONVENIENCE STORE. I HEARD THAT SAME NOISE WHEN SHE GOT OUT AND SHE THE DOOR. I OPENED THE DOOR MYSELF, LISTENED CAREFULLY AND REALIZED I HAD A HOLE IN THE GLASS OF MY SUNROOF THE SIZE OF A GOLF BALL. NOT ONLY THAT BUT VISIBLY I COULD SEE EVERY INCH OF MY SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. VERY PUZZLED, I EXHASTED ALL THE POSSIBILITIES OF HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED AND COME UP WITH NOTHING. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND COULDN'T GIVE THEM AN EXPLANATION ON HOW THIS HAPPENED. AFTER READING AN ARTICLE ONLINE, I REALIZE THAT MY SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED WHILE (THANK GOD) MY CAR WAS SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY.

ON APRIL 1, 2019, WHEN ENTERING MY VEHICLE IN THE DRIVEWAY, ALONG WITH MY GRANDDAUGHTER WHO GOT IN ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, SHE CLOSED THE DOOR. I HEARD A SOUND I NEVER HEARD BEFORE. IT SOUNDED LIKE AN EMPTY PLASTIC WATER BOTTLE WAS GRAZED AS SHE SHUT THE DOOR. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH ABOUT IT UNTIL APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES LATER WHEN WE STOPPED AT A CONVENIENCE STORE. I HEARD THE SAME SOUND AS SHE GOT OUT AND SHUT THE DOOR. FROM THE DRIVERS' SIDE I OPENED AND SHUT THE DOOR AGAIN. LISTENING CAREFULLY, I HEARD THE SAME SOUND AND REALIZED THE SOUND FROM COMING FROM ABOVE MY HEAD. I SLID OPEN THE SUNROOF SHADE AND COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I SAW. THERE WAS A HOLE IN THE GLASS OF MY SUNROOF THE SIZE OF A GOLF BALL. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT WHAT WAS MOST ASTOUNDING WAS EVERY INCH OF THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS SHATTERED. VERY PUZZLED, I EXHAUSTED ALL POSSIBILITIES OF HOW THIS COULD HAVE HAPPENED, (WHICH WEREN'T MANY) AND CAME UP WITH NOTHING. NOT KNOWING AT THE TIME THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH EXPLODING SUNROOFS, I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND COULDN'T GIVE THEM AN EXPLANATION OF HOW THIS HAPPENED. MY DEDUCTIBLE WAS $500, SO THE INSURANCE COMPANY COULD NOT HELP BECAUSE THEY ASSESSED THE DAMAGE AS COSTING ON AROUND $282. A FEW WEEKS LATER, I WAS FORCED TO TRY TO GET THE SUNROOF REPAIRED BECAUSE THE INTERIOR OF MY VEHICLE WAS BEING DAMAGED BECAUSE OF THE RAIN, I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR SOMEONE TO DO THE REPAIR.THIS IS WHEN I CAME ACROSS SEVERAL ARTICLES ON EXPLODING SUNROOFS. THAT WAS THE ONLY EXPLANATION THAT MADE SENSE OF WHY MY SUNROOF WAS BROKEN AND WHY EVERY INCH OF THE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. MY CAR WAS LAST DRIVEN THAT SUNDAY EVENING. NO UNKNOWN SOUNDS WERE HEARD AS THE DOORS WERE OPENED AND SHUT. THE SUNROOF HAD TO HAVE EXPLODED WHILE IN THE DRIVEWAY, SOMETIME AFTER THE CAR WAS LAST DRIVEN SUNDAY EVENING AND WHEN I AND MY GRANDDAUGHTER GOT BACK IN MONDAY MORNING AT APPROXIMATELY 6:30AM.

SERVICE BRAKES
MY TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID HAS HAD EPISODIC BRAKING PROBLEMS. AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND DRIVING FOR A FEW MINUTES, OCCASIONALLY WHEN I STEP ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW/STOP THE CAR THE BRAKE PEDDLE NEEDS TO BE PUSHED DOWN TO THE FLOOR. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING I CAN HEAR THE ENGINE REVVING. IT IS NECESSARY TO PUSH EXTREMELY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE TO STOP THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO MCGEORGE TOYOTA AND AN INDEPENDENT REPAIR SHOP FOR THIS PROBLEM. NEITHER FOUND ANY COMPUTER CODES INDICATING THE PROBLEM. TOYOTA REMOVED AND LUBRICATED THE SLIDE PINS FOR THE CALIPHERS AND THEN REINSTALLED THE PINS. THIS PROBLEM CONTINUES TO OCCUR. AS THIS PROBLEM IS EPISODIC, NEITHER THE DEALERSHIP NOR THE INDEPENDENT REPAIR TECHNICIAN COULD DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE REGENERATIVE BRAKING SYSTEM RELATED TO THE COMPUTER SENDING A WRONG SIGNAL CAUSING THE ENGINE TO ACCELERATE RATHER THAN ALLOWING THE CAR TO STOP NORMALLY. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL "CLOSE CALLS" WHERE THIS UNINTENDED ACCELERATION NEARLY LEAD TO MY HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME OR NOT STOPPING AT AN INTERSECTION, POTENTIALLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT OR STRIKING A PEDESTRIAN..
