PROBLEMS WITH THE DEAD BATTERY ' DRAINING. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN JULY 2020. IT HAS BEEN 2 TIMES I'VE HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE BECAUSE MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. FIRST TIME, THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO USE. SECOND TIME, THEY SAID IT WAS BECAUSE MY CAR HAS LOW MILES SINCE I'VE BOUGHT IT. I WANTED TO BUY A NEW CAR TO NOT GO THROUGH "ISSUES" AND I SHOULD NOT BE FORCED TO DRIVE MY CAR MORE THAN WHAT I NEED TO, NOR I SHOULD HAVE TO BUY A TRICKLE CHARGER THE TECH SERVICE GUY RECOMMENDED ME TO BUY AND FOLLOW HIS INSTRUCTIONS ON HAVING TO DRIVE AT LEAST 30 MINUTES TWICE A WEEK, WHEN I ALREADY DRIVE IT TO WORK EVERYDAY. NOW I AM AFFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR, WORRIED THAT IT WON'T WORK AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT. WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT WHEN THEY TELL YOU "I CANNOT GARANTEE THIS WON'T HAPPEND AGAIN IN 6 OR 7 MONTHS"?. VERY DISAPPOINTED. I THEN, STARTED DOING RESAERCH ON MY OWN ONLINE AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM.

I WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS CAR, UNTIL I GOT THIS CAR. WE HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE SIGNING OUT CONTRACT. THE UNDER SHIELD OF THE CAR IS FALLING/DROPPING WHICH IS CONSTANTLY BREAKING OFF AND FALLING OUT BEHIND US WHICH IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS TO OTHERS AS WELL. MAKES THE WHOLE CAR SHAKE LIKE CRAZY WHEN DRIVING HIGHER SPEEDS. I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING TO GET DOWN ON THE GROUND IN MID WINTER AND TRY TO DIG THE SNOW, SLUSH AND ICE OUT FROM INBETWEEN THE SHIELD AND THE CAR ITSELF. I CANT USE TOOLS OR SHARP OBJECTS BECAUSE I DONT KNOW IF THERE IS BREAKABLE STUFF SO I JUST USE BARE HANDS AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. RIDICULOUS WHEN I HAVE SERVE CARPEL TUNNEL AND ITS IN NEGATIVE WITH WINDCHILL AND I RUN INSIDE UGLY CRYING BECAUSE MY HANDS HURTING.. THE CLIPS THAT WHOLE THE CAR TOGETHER IN GENERAL KEEP COMING UNDONE. I CAN ONLY CLIP A FEW BACK TOGETHER AS I DON'T HAVE THE STRENGTH FOR THE REST. SCARED THE BUMPER MIGHT FALL OFF AT A HIGHER SPEED WITH 2 MINOR CHILDREN IN THE CAR. THEN THE FELT ON THE INSIDE AROUND THE TIRES LIKES TO PEEL AWAY AND WHEN THE CLIP IS ALSO UNDONE IT BENDS AND MENDS THE UNDERBODY OUTSIDE TRIM AND THEN WHILE DRIVING IT CATCHES ON MY BACK TIRE. NOT ONLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS BUT ALL THE TIME.

I HAD RECENTLY BEEN TOLD THAT THE CAMRY MODELS THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH A 2.5 4 CYLINDER HAVE ENGINE ISSUES SUCH AS STALLING AND I HAVE BEEN IN NUMEROUS SITUATIONS TO WHERE NOT ONLY MYSELF, BUT OTHERS COULD HAVE BEEN HURT TERRIBLY. ONE MORNING I WAS JUST CASUALLY DRIVING AND AS I WAS TURNING LEFT THE CAR AHEAD OF ME BRAKED AND SPED AHEAD AND TO MY RIGHT I CAN SEE A CAR RUNNING A RED LIGHT AND I ALSO HAD TO FLEE THE AREA BUT, WITH THE ENGINE STALLING THERE WAS A LATE RESPONSE AND THANKFULLY GOD WAS WITH ME THAT DAY AS NONE OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS WERE HURT OR HARMED, BUT THIS IS A SERIOUS MATTER THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE PEOPLE TO LOSE THEIR LIVES.

ENGINE
I LEASED THIS VEHICLE IN JULY 2020 FOR 24 MONTHS, THE BATTERY IS NOT DEPENDABLE; FREQUENTLY, AT RANDOM TIMES, THE CAR WON'T START.. I HAVE HAD TO CALL FOR ASSISTANCE 6 TIMES. TOYOTA EXPLAINED THAT THE BATTERY HAS A DEFECT CALLED PARASITIC DRAIN BECAUSE OF OVERLOAD FROM 40 COMPUTERS AND ONLY SOLUTION IS TO DRIVE AT LEAST 1/2 HOUR TWICE A WEEK. I AM 88 YEARS OLD WITH MACULA DEGENERATION AND CONSIDER THIS AN UNSAFE REQUIREMENT. TOYOTA SUGGESTED BUYING A NEW BATTERY BUT IF, AS STATED BY THE MECHANIC, THE BATTERY IS GETTING CONTINUOUSLY DRAINED BY OVERLOAD, THAT MAKES NO SENSE, I ASKED IF THEY COULD BLOCK OFF SOME OF THE DRAINAGE (LIKE BLUETOOTH) THEY SAID NOT THIS MODEL.I COMPLAINED THAT I WASN'T INFORMED OF THIS DEFECT BEFORE BUYING AND THEY EXPLAINED IT WAS IN THE MANUEL WHICH I DIDN'T RECEIVE UNTIL I SIGNED THE AGREEMENT.

OIL CONSUMPTION IS SEVERELY HIGH. I RECENTLY GOT THE OIL CHANGED A WEEK OR TWO BEFORE AND IT WAS EMPTY. THE CAR WOULD SHUT DOWN WHEN TURNING, ONLY TO FIND OUT AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP I HAVE RECEIVED THE INITIAL OIL CHANGE FROM THAT THE OIL IS SEVERELY LOW. I WAS TOLD BY OTHER MECHANICS THAT THERE WERE RECALLS ON PRIOR YEARS OF TOYOTA CAMRY FOR THE SAME ENGINE ISSUES AND I WAS INSTRUCTED THAT I SHOULD FILE AN OFFICIAL COMPLAINT BY MULTIPLE MECHANICS.
