ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I START MY CAR BY PRESSING THE START BUTTON, THE CAR CAN'T START AND SAID IGNITION IS NOT READY AND MANY ERROR CODES SHOW UP ON THE SCREEN, SOMETIMES IT TAKES 8 TO 10 TIMES BEFORE CAR CAN START AND TODAY IT CAN'T START AT ALL, I WENT TO CHECK FOR THE CAR CATTERY AND IT IS FINE, AND WE CHANGED OUR KEY FOB BATTERY, BUT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS, SOME WEBSITE SAID IT IS FUEL PUMP ISSUE, AND I SEE SOME 2018 TOYOTA CAMRY IS ON FUEL PUMP RECALLL BUT WHEN I INPUT MY VIN, IT SAID IT IS NOT UNDER RECALL, SO I AM VERY WORRIED THAT ONE DAY I WILL GET STRANDED SOMEWHERE WITHOUT NOTICE AND DON'T KNOW WHAT CAUSED THE ISSUE, PLEASE HELP. THIS HAPPENS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY BEFORE I START.

TOUCHSCREEN IS PARTIALLY INOPERATIVE DUE TO FAULTY CALIBRATION. CALIBRATION STARTED CHANGING ONE YEAR AFTER PURCHASE. HASN'T BEEN A FACTOR BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN USING THE SAME PHONE. RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW PHONE AND CANNOT PAIR WITH THE SYSTEM. I DO NOT HAVE THE ABILTY TO USE THE PHONE VIA HANDS-FREE OPERATION WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS DEFECT IS VERY COMMON. TOYOTA HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT IT (TSB 0172-16). TOYOTA TOLD ME THAT THE WHOLE RADIO TOUCHSCREEN ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. BECAUSE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL AND TOYOTA SHOULD FIX THIS AT NO COST. (SOME PORTIONS OF THIS COMPLAINT WERE COPIED FROM ANOTHER PERVIOUSLY SUBMITTED COMPLAINT)

I HAVE DONE A HARD RESET MYSELF WITH CORPORATE AS WELL.AFTER OVER 15 VISITS TO TOYOTA THEY REPLACED THE RADIO. UNFORTUNATELY IT'S STILL FREEZING.

I WAS ALMOST HIT 3 TIMES BY CARS TRYING TO STEER MY WAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. CAR WAS TAKEN TO TWIN CITY TOYOTA AND I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT'S A RECALL ON OTHER CARS BUT NOT MINE. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED OR KILLED OTHER PEOPLE. I THREATENED TO CALL AND REPORT TO YOU, AND THEN THEY WERE WILLING TO HELP ME. CAR HASNT BEEN INSPECTED YET. I DROPPED KEY IN DROP BOX AT TWIN CITY TOYOTA IN HERCULANEUM MO. I'M SCARED TO DRIVE IT NOW.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
AT NIGHT,ESPECIALLY ON A VERY DARK ROAD, MY HEADLIGHTS, ESPECIALLY IN THE LOW BEAM MODE, SEVERELY RESTRICT MY VISION. I CAN ONLY VIEW THE ROAD BY LOOKING THROUGH THE LOWER PART OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE VIEW THROUGH THE UPPER PART IS TOTALLY DARK AS IF OBSTRUCTED BY AN OBJECT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS A DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE AND IT PLACES MYSELF AND OTHERS AT RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY. I HAVE SEEN THIS ISSUE REPORTED BY OTHERS ONLINE AND I AM UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE FACT THAT NHTSA HAS NOT INFORMED ME OF THIS PROBLEM NOR HAS TAKEN ANY ACTION TO CORRECT IT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE 1 MONTH AGO. IT HAS STALLED ON THE FREEWAY TWICE. I AM AT 10K MILES. THE DEALER IS REPLACING THE "BAD" FUEL PUMP WITH ANOTHER IDENTICAL PUMP! THOSE CARS CONSIDERED PART OF THE KNOWN RECALL GET A DIFFERENT PUMP. SO I AM TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT MY OWN RISK.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE PROBLEM I AM HAVING WITH MY 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY IS THAT THE DASH IS MELTING LEAVING A VERY SHINNY LOOK TO IT. WHEN THE SUN HITS IT REFLECTS OFF THE GLASS MAKING IT DIFFUCULT TO SEE. AT NIGHT THE STREET LIGHTS AND ON COMMING TRAFFICE TIGHS ALSO REFLECT MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. PLUS ITS VERY STICKY AND EVEYTHING THAT FLYS BY DUST LINT HAIR WILL STICK TO MY DASH, VERY UNAPPEALING AND DIRTY.

MY MOTHER WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THAT COST HER LIFE. THE BLACK BOX ON THE CAR SAYS THAT THERE WAS A MALFUNCTION IN THE POWER STEERING THAT CAUSED THE CAR TO PULL SHARPLY TO THE LEFT. THIS CAUSED HER TO HIT A CONCRETE MEDIAN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHERE HER AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. HER SPINE BROKE IN 4 PLACES AND SUFFERED 7 BROKEN RIBS.*DT*JB

IN 2015, THE TOYOTA CAMRY SE SUDDENLY DID NOT START, SO I THOUGHT IT WAS A BATTERY PROBLEM AND CHANGED IT, BUT THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AND IT WAS SENT TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR INSPECTION AND THE STARTING FUSE DISAPPEARED. THEN, BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, THE RIGHT DOOR GLASS OPEN SWEETIE DID NOT WORK AMONG THE SWITCHES ON THE DRIVER SIDE.
