VISIBILITY/WIPER
WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVER-SIDE SUN VISOR DROOPED DOWN AND COULD NO LONGER SUPPORT ITSELF. THIS SAFETY ISSUE RESULTED IN A DANGEROUS OBSTRUCTION OF VIEW. I'VE HAD TO REMOVE THE SUN VISOR UNTIL IT CAN BE REPAIRED.

THE DASHBOARD OF THE CAR IS MELTING AND IS VERY SHINY AND STICKY. WHEN THE SUN OR HEADLIGHTS HIT THE WINDSHIELD IT IS BLINDING AND I CAN'T SEE. I HAVE TRIED TO CLEAN IT WITH HOT SOAPY WATER, AS I WAS INSTRUCTED, BUT IT WILL NOT COME OFF.

STEERING
THIS COMPLAINT CONCERNS STEERING ISSUES RELATED TO A BAD CELL IN BATTERY. FOR THE PAST YEAR THE CAR HAS RANDOMLY PULLED RIGHT AND LEFT AND VEERED WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. PULLING WAS MOST PRONOUNCED WHEN ACCELERATING AND STOPPING. THE PULLING COULD BE EXTREME AT TIMES ESPECIALLY THEN TURNING, THE CAR WOULD PULL THE OTHER WAY. THE ISSUE WAS ERRATIC AND COULD NOT BE REPLICATED FOR THE CAR REPAIR SHOP. I HAD THE TIRES ROTATED TWICE AND AN ALIGNMENT WHICH DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE. LOCAL DEALERSHIP WAS NOT HELPFUL. CAME ACROSS INTERNET CAR BLOG THAT LINKED FAULTY BATTERY TO UNSAFE STEERING FOR CAMRY'S THEN FOUND MULTIPLE REFERENCES FOR THIS ISSUE ONLINE. CHANGED OUT THE BATTERY AND THE STEERING ISSUE IS RESOLVED.

SIZE OF BLOWOUT HOLE APPROXIMATELY 24"X13". TOYOTA SAYS NOT THEIR FAULT, CLEARLY A ROCK HIT IT.

SERVICE BRAKES
I CAN STILL DRIVE THE CAR BUT WHAT I THINK IS DEFECTIVE IS THAT, WITH THE CAR PARKED, I CAN PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THERE ARE NO LEAKS OF BRAKE FLUID SO IT MUST BE GOING INTO THE ANTILLOCK BRAKING SYSTEM. THERE MUST BE AN INTERNAL LEAK WITHIN THE ABS AND I'M CONCERNED THAT MIGHT AFFECT IT'S FUNCTIONALITY.

MY DASHBOARD IS BECOMING A GOOEY MESS. THERE IS SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO BE EATING AWAY THE PLASTIC AND IF YOU TOUCH IT YOU'LL STICK TO IT LEAVING BEHIND AN INDENTION FOR LIFE. THE STICKY FILM HAS CAUSED A GLARE, FROM THE SUN, ONTO THE WINDSHIELD, CAUSING ME TO HIT A CONCRETE BARRICADE THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE VISIBLE. I HAD A CRASH WITH THIS CONCRETE AND IT TORE OFF PART OF THE FENDER AND HEADLIGHT. I REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BUT NOT THE FENDER. PLEASE FIX THIS SAFETY HAZARD SO I CAN DRIVE MY GRANDDAUGHTER AROUND SOON.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS DRIVING IN EAST GRANBY NEAR A FEDEX DELIVERY TRUCK. THIS TRUCK KEPT SWERVING LANES IN ORDER TO GET AROUND OTHER CARS, BUT HE DID SO BY CUTTING ME OFF MULTIPLE TIMES. HE WOULD GO TO CHANGE LANES THEN SWERVE BACK IN THE ORIGINAL LANE, CAUSING ME AND OTHER CARS TO NEED TO SLAM BRAKES TO STAY SAFE. THIS WAS ALSO IN A SCHOOL ZONE IN EAST GRANBY NEAR THE CENTER ABOUT 3 MILES FROM THE BRADLEY AIRPORT IN CT. THE DRIVER KEPT LAUGHING AND SMILING AT MYSELF AND OTHER CARS AND ONCE I WAS ABLE TO GET AROUND HIM TO PASS AND MOVE ON HE FLIPPED ME OFF. DELIVERY DRIVERS SHOULD BE PRACTICING SAFE DRIVING ESPECIALLY IN A SCHOOL ZONE ...

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY CAR KEEPS HAVING PROBLEMS. TOYOTA HAS REBUILT THE ENGINE IN JANUARY 2018. SINCE THEN, I'VE HAD A NEW ALTERNATOR THREE TIMES. THE LAST TIME WAS MARCH 2020. A NEW RADIATOR 2019, NEW SPARK PLUGS MARCH 2020, NEW FUEL PUMP APRIL 2020. THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW AND PASSENGER REAR WINDOW WILL NOT COME DOWN. THIS HAPPENED A COUPLE WEEKS AGO. SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT FOR, JULY 29, 2020. YESTERDAY, JULY 24, 2020, MY CAR STARTED SHAKING AND CUT OFF. THERE WERE NO LIGHTS ON (ENGINE, OIL OR BATTERY). IN THE PROCESS, THE BATTERY LIGHT FLASHED. ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WAS CALLED FOR SERVICE. TOW TRUCK DRIVER GAVE ME A HOTSHOT AT MY REQUEST SO, I COULD ROLL THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOWS UP. MY CAR NEEDED A HOTSHOT TO DRIVE OFF OF THE TOW TRUCK TO PARK. TODAY, JULY 25,2020, ROADSIDE ASSISTANCES WAS CALLED TO HAVE IT TOWED TO JERRY'S TOYOTA BELAIR RD., BALTIMORE, MD. I WAS ADVISED THAT I NEED ANOTHER ALTERNATOR, AGAIN. THIS JUST MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL. THIS WILL BE THE THIRD ALTERNATOR IN ABOUT TWO YEARS. FURTHER, I WAS ADVISED THAT THE MECHANIC 'THINKS' THAT THE MASTER SWITCH FOR THE WINDOWS NEED TO BE REPLACED. FOR SOME REASON, THE ALTERNATOR IS NOT LASTING IN MY CAR.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
SRS WARNING LIGHT AND TRAC CONTROL WARNING LIGHT AND SEAT BELT WARNINGS FOR BOTH PASSENGER AND DRIVER FLASHING. I CHECKED ONLINE AND COULDNT FIGURE OUT THE CODES. I FIGURED OUT THAT THIS WAS BLOWING FUSE 29 ON THE CAR AS SOON AS THE IGNITION IS TURNED ON. I WENT TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC SHOP, ALI AUTOMOTIVE IN SANTA CLARA, CA. THEY READ THE CODES AND THE FAULTS DISPLAYED ARE THE STEERING ANGLE SENSOR FAULT AND PASSENGER CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM FAULT (IF I RECALL CORRECTLY). AS THE AIR BAGS ARE NO LONGER ACTIVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE FAULT CAME ON WHILE JUST AFTER TURNING INTO PARKING SPOT IN THE PARKING LOT AT THE CORNER OF LAWRENCE AND PROSPECT. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THEY NEED TO CHECK THE VEHICLE BUT IT WAS LIKELY THE AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING IS SHORTING AS THEY'VE REPLACED THIS ON A NUMBER OF CARS. CHECKING ONLINE IT SEEMS THAT TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON THE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING ON SOME MODELS BUT I DIDNT SEE ONE OF THE CAMRY. ALSO A NUMBER OF REPORTS ONLINE OF CONSUMERS CHANGING THE CLOCKSPRINGS. SO THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON COMPLAINT AND A SAFETY HAZARD. PLEASE ASSIST TO INVESTIGATE ASAP. THIS CAR IS ALSO USED BY OUR TEENAGE SON AND I'D LIKE TO ENSURE THAT IT IS SAFE. THANK YOU.
