SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
BOUGHT WITH 22K MILES ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED AND THE SPEEDOMETER ISSUES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRESENT. WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL (UNDER 45 SUBURBAN AND URBAN STREETS) THE CAR SOMETIMES CANNOT REGULATE ON SLIGHT INCLINES AND SPEEDS UP BY UP TO 5 MPH OVER SETTING AND DOESN'T DECELERATE. SEVERAL TIMES IT'S DONE IT ON FLAT ROADS. IT'S NEVER DONE THIS ON THE FREEWAY EVEN COMING UP SLOPES. IT'S RARE THAT MY DIGITAL SPEED READING IS THE SAME AS MY SET CRUISE CONTROL SPEED. MY DIGITAL SPEED READING ALSO USUALLY DIFFERS FROM MY SPEEDOMETER BY ABOUT 2-4 MPH ALSO, SOMETIME LAST SUMMER AN ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES HAS BEEN OCCURRING AND IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. WHEN FIRST STARTING MY CAR (I NOTICE IT ON DAMP OR DEWY MORNINGS) I CAN HEAR MY BRAKES AS I'M BACKING DOWN MY SLIGHTLY SLOPED, CEMENT DRIVEWAY. I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND BARELY TAP THE GAS BECAUSE I GO VERY SLOWLY BECAUSE WE HAVE A SHORT DRIVEWAY (35-40FT TOTAL) AND A LITTLE LIP AT THE ENTRANCE WHERE THE DRIVEWAY MEETS OUR CULDESAC. IT'S NOT EVERY MORNING AND I'VE NEVER NOTICED IT ANY OTHER TIMES. SOUNDS LIKE WHEN BRAKE PADS ARE WEARING DOWN AND FEELS ALMOST SPONGY WHEN PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL. NO SQUEALING OR CHIRPING. IVE HAD MY BRAKES CHECKED TWICE AND THEY'RE IN GOOD SHAPE. *CURRENT MILEAGE IS APPROX 42K

STEERING
POWER STEERING VERY STIFF AND DOESN'T RETURN TO NEUTRAL AGAIN. HAD HAPPENED SEVERAL WEEKS AGO, WENT BACK TO NORMAL, BUT RETURNED YESTERDAY AFTER A CAR WASH. DIFFICULT TO CORRECT WHEN IN THE DRIVEWAY OR ON SHARP TURNS AFTER STOPPING. 49,000 MILES ON 2018 CAMRY HYBRID LE. WILL HAVE TOYOTA REVIEWS AT 50K SERVICE IN A FEW WEEKS. REALLY VERY DISTURBING.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
2017 TOYOTA CAMRY SE. I HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALERSHIP OVER 8 TIMES NOW FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS AND A CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKES THAT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS WOULD NOT LOCK/UNLOCK AND ON TWO OCCURRENCES WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION THE DOORS UNLOCKED THEMSELVES WITHOUT BEING COMMANDED. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT INTO THE DEALER 4 TIMES FOR THE ISSUE BEFORE THE DEALERSHIP FINALLY REPLACED 3 OF 4 OUT OF SAFETY. I BROUGHT THIS ISSUE TO THE GENERAL MANAGER ATTENTION THAT IT SHOULD TAKE 4 VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET A SAFETY FEATURE FIXED. HE TOLD ME TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM WITH THE DOOR ACTUATORS AND HAVE KNOWN ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT THE ENGINEERS HAVE NOT CAME UP WITH A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. CLEARLY ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE TOYOTA AND THE DEALERSHIP WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR ADDRESS. THE CAR HAD BEEN IN APPROX. 8 TIMES NOW FOR A CLUNKING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKING SYSTEM THAT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID TOYOTA'S ARE KNOWN FOR THIS. THEIR SOLUTION WAS TO PAY FOR A BRAKE JOB EVEN THOUGH THE CAR IS STILL UNDER THE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND THEY KNOW THEIR IS AN DEFECT WITH THE SYSTEM. I HAVE VOICED MY CONCERNS TO TOYOTA BUT THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM OR FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

ENGINE
WAS DRIVING NORMALLY A MONTH OR SO AGO AND NOTICED BRAKE LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT COME ON DURING MEDIUM-TO-HARD BRAKING. WENT TO FIRESTONE TO CHECK BRAKES OUT AND WAS TOLD ENGINE OIL WAS EXTREMELY LOW AND THEY POURED 3 QTS IN. WAS TOLD TO GET IT CHECKED BY SOMEONE KNOWLEDGEABLE IN ENGINES. GOT IT CHECKED OUT AND WAS TOLD THE 2007-2010 MODEL YEAR CAMRY HAD THAT PROBLEM. WAS TOLD BY SOMEONE I KNOW (ALSO OWNS 2009 OR 2010 CAMRY) THAT HE HAD THE CAR FIXED DURING A RECALL.CHECKED MY VIN AND THERE IS NO RECALL CURRENTLY. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED IN 2013 WITH ABOUT 30K MILES AND AM CURRENTLY ABOVE 70K WITH THIS PROBLEM. SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT IT IS NOT UNCOMMON. *TR

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
HESITATION AND MAJOR JERK WHEN ACCELERATING AT LOW MPH FROM A ROLLING STOP. TSB #T-SB-0152-19_REV SHOULD BE APPLIED TO PRACTICALLY EVERY CAMRY FROM 2018 & 2019. UNFORTUNATELY I CAN NOT HAVE THIS DONE TO MY CAR BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT SUPPORTED IN THIS BULLETIN, I HAVE NO IDEA WHY IT WOULDN'T BE BUT IT DEFINITELY SHOULD BE BECAUSE THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM WITH MY CAR EVERY SINGLE DAY. IT'S GETTING EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND IT FEELS LIKE MY ENGINE/TRANSMISSION ARE GOING TO FAIL SOON AND MY CAR ONLY HAS 34000 MILES ON IT. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS IN ANY OTHER CAR THAT I HAVE OWNED. PLEASE APPLY THIS BULLETIN TO MORE CAMRY VINS! *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, EXTRA EFFORT WAS NEEDED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS AND VSC WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, AFTER ENTERING THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS A CONTINUOUS CHIME HEARD WITH SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS REMAINING ILLUMINATED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER NOR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 109,000.

STEERING
AT 45000 MILES A RATTLE OVER BUMPS AND AT LOW SPEED DEVELOPED UNDER THE DASHBOARD. THE RATTLE INCREASED UNTIL I BROUGHT IT TO THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER WITH 50000 MILES ON IT . THROUGH THE PROCESS IT WAS DISCOVERED THE STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $135 DIAGNOSTIC FEE, $555 FOR LABOR AND $757 FOR THE STEERING COLUMN. THE NEW COLUMN SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THE CAUSE OF LOOSE PART OR PARTS IS INSIDE OF THE COLUMN. I CONTACTED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND GOT NO SATISFACTION. THE SERVICE TECH AT MY DEALER TOLD ME THERE HAS BEEN OTHER CASES OF STEERING COLUMN LOOSENESS AND REPLACEMENT. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I HAVE ALL THE RECORDS. I WISH TOYOTA SHOULD STEP UP ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
I CAN NOT BRAKE THIS CAR, THIS CAR SUDDENLY MOVES FORWARD VIOLENTLY WHEN I URGENTLY PEDAL DOWN TO STOP IT NEARBY OUR DOWNTOWN. THE ABS SYSTEM ALARM APPEARED TOO, SOME NOISE OCCURRED TO ABS ASSEMBLY MODULE. I TOWED THIS CAR TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, BUT TOYOTA REFUSED TO RECALL AND SAID THIS CARE IS OUT OF THEIR WARRANTY SERVICE (IT HITS 13 YEARS OLD AND PASSED OVER 200,000 MILES).I THINK TOYOTA HAD RESPONSIBILITY TO CARE THE SAFETY SYSTEMS. PLEASE KINDLY HELP TO DEAL THIS ISSUE OR ADVISE, THANK YOU SO MUCH. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER
PASSENGER SIDE SHADE VISOR SAGGED DOWN AND WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE. THIS HAPPENED ON MY 2011 CAMRY SE, SAME THING HAPPENED ON MY 2007 CAMRY SE AND A RECALL FIXED THAT. WHY IS THIS 2011 CAMRY TO BE REPAIRED BY TOYOTA AS WAS THE 2007? ALSO, THE SUN ROOF HAS BEEN NOISY SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR AUG 31, 2010. WHY IS THAT NOT RECALLED.? AM I THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE ISSUES? *TR
