SERVICE BRAKES, BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS
Pre-Collision system malfunction, secondary collision system malfunction along with check engine. It appears to be a trend with 2018 Toyota Camry XSE and higher model. I found that many people that own this model vehicle is experiencing the same issue even after going to a Toyota dealer and the issue still persist.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I have own this car for 1 year and already placed the front windshield two both times a small crack/chip occurred on the passenger side with no known cause. The chip grew because of heat and resulting in me having to replace it. Additionally Safelite technicians also informed me that the glass is so thin they are unable to repair it and always results in a complete replacement. I also own a 2014 Toyota tundra and have never had to replace this windshield even when I can recall a large rock impacting the window on the highway. I believe Toyota has significant issues with this glass and should have to recall the windows and reimburse me for my expenses. There are other incidents where dealerships have replaced them for free acknowledging there is a problem.

SEATS
I purchased this vehicles in May and after 3 weeks I begin to have terrible neck pain. I’m now in physical therapy and have difficulty sitting in the vehicle for long periods. The design of the front seats are terrible. It pushes your head forward and the upper shoulder design compensates poorly. It is not ergonomically correct. I’ve reported this to Toyota to ask for assistance and they provided none. They told me I should bring it to the dealer, but that doesn’t change their poor design. This is a very real problem that is causing significant pain and damage, which Toyota will not acknowledge or fix.

STRUCTURE:BODY, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The panoramic sunroof on my 2020 Toyota Camry XSE failed to close on two separate occasions. The most recent incident occurred about three months ago. After opening the sunroof, the glass panel would not close, leaving the vehicle fully exposed during heavy rain. I had to cover the opening with plastic and tape while standing in the rain, which caused water to enter the vehicle and led to illness from exposure. This failure poses safety risks, including: Driver distraction if the failure occurs while driving. Possible water damage to electrical components, potentially affecting vehicle operation. Reduced visibility in heavy rain. Security risks if the vehicle cannot be secured. Online research and discussions with other owners revealed that this problem appears to be relatively common with Toyota Camry models equipped with a panoramic roof. My initial repair estimate was approximately $12,000, which is unreasonable given the vehicle’s value. I ultimately had the sunroof permanently sealed shut at my own expense. I have video evidence and documentation from both incidents, including an earlier occurrence on August 29, 2020, which was reported to a Toyota dealer but dismissed at the time. I believe this should be investigated as a potential recall.

SERVICE BRAKES, VISIBILITY/WIPER
I am writing to report a couple of issues with my new 2025 Camry LE, which I purchased just one week ago. First, I've noticed a significant squeaking noise when I apply the brakes while reversing or parking. This is a consistent sound and is quite loud. It's look like there an issue with brake in new car Additionally, the windshield wipers are making a lot of noise. I've never experienced this with other vehicles, including my 2022 car, which has much quieter wipers. The noise from the new Camry's wipers is quite distracting.

ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
awd hybrid vehicle makes a noise at speeds under 20mph , that sounds like an electric motor or bearing - salesman said the noise is a mandated law by nhtsa ? or ? month later the maintenance tech Forman took it for a test drive and said the same thing . that the noise was created (by a speaker ?) so the vehicle can be heard at low speeds / below 20 mph . i asked where the speaker is , he said he didn't know ! i asked if he could show me it on a diagnostics screen , he again refused . the noise sounds exactly like an electric motor . mg1 , mg2 ? i can't hear the noise when backing out of a driveway or similar low speed situations ? i need to verify if this is true - is there an actual law that the vehicle has to make a noise ? and it was okayed to use a noise that sounds like the hybrid electric motor or bearing ? even if this is true the computer logic should be changed so that the sound pulses so that it is obviously a speaker and not a mechanical issue . ( like no grease ) and it should always work when it is most needed , backing up and slow driving / all the time under 20 mph . service department should plug in a diagnostic scanner and prove to me that a speaker is making the noise . * why is this a safety issue ? because if they are lying , eventually ( when it is out of warranty ) this vehicle will break down . are ALL 2025 Toyota hybrids making some kind of noise ? and if it is a noise created by a speaker - Prove It are all 2025 Camrys making this same noise ? maybe they all have the same mechanical problem ? why wait till there is a crash , fire , or an accident ? as in the next section - Additional Details . and again if it is a legitimate noise generated for safety . at the least change the computer logic so it pulses and doesn't sound like a bad motor generator bearing . And have the maintenance techs trained to know where the speaker actually is . i don't want to share my personal information with toyota . if they are lying

SEAT BELTS
While driving my car it showed an SRS Airbag System Malfunction contact your dealership message. On March 19,2025 we took our car into the dealership, and they stated the car was drivable, but if we were in a head on collision the seatbelt would not tighten to keep us from hitting the steering wheel/dashboard/windshield. The part was not available and would be ordered to be installed within approximately two weeks. As of today, after contacting Toyota North America (reference #250616000216) the replacement part #73370-06120-AO is still not available to our dealership for repair of this seatbelt safety part.
