AIR BAGS, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL, EQUIPMENT
I HAVE A 2009 CAMRY THAT I LEASED ON 3/8/19. ON 10/9/19 I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, NOT CITED, THE CAR THAT HIT ME FROM THE REAR DOING 90 MPM UPON INPACT PUSHED IN FROM SOUTH BOUND TO EAST BOUND. I WAS THEN HIT ON RIGHT FRONT SIDE BY AN 18 WHEELER AND HAD 4 RADIAL FRACTURES ON MY LEFT ARM; MY LEFT HAND FLIPPED OVER BACKWARDS ON MY FOREARM AND BONES PROTRUDED FROM EACH SIDE OF ARMS. NOT ONE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED FROM THE INCEPTION OF THE ACCIDENT TO THE ACCIDENT ON MY ARM. I NOW HAVE A TOTALED CAMRY; I HAD SURGERY ON MY LEFT ARM TWO DAYS LATER, LOST OF WAGES AND DISABLED ON MY LEFT SIDE. TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS SITUATION AS IF THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED; I WOULD NOT HAVE THIS RADIAL FRACTURE, WHICH IS WHAT I WAS PAYING FOR BY LEASING THIS TOYOTA CAMRY 2019. I NEED HELP. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AS WELL AS INSIDE THE CAR SHOWING NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

STEERING
MY 2015 CAMRY PULLS TO THE RIGHT AT A LOW SPEEDS (5-35MPH) THE STEERING IS VERY SENSITIVE, AND WHEN I CORRECT THE POSITION AND LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, IT GOES BACK TO THE RIGHT. HOWEVER IT DOES ALIGN AFTER I REACH A CERTAIN SPEED (40MPH>), AND THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO DISAPPEAR UNTIL THE NEXT MORNING OR WHEN I GO SOMEWHERE AND HAVE TO START THE CAR UP AGAIN.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE BEEN THE SOLE OWNER OF THIS CAMRY. BACK IN 2015 I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND BROUGHT UP TO THE TECHNICIAN THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS STICKY. AT THE TIME THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD DO ABOUT IT AND REPLACING IT WOULD COST ME A LOT OF MONEY. NOW 4 YEARS LATER I FIND OUT THAT THERE WAS A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT THAT COVERED THE DASHBOARD. MY DASHBOARD IS NOW SO STICKY THAT IT IS GLISTENING. I TRIED TO USE A SUN VISOR HOPING IT WOULD SLOW THE RATE OF MELTING BUT THEN MY SUN VISOR WOULD STICK TO THE DASHBOARD. I PLACE A HAT ON THE DASHBOARD ONCE FOR 10 MINUTES AND WHEN I REMOVED IT THERE WAS BLACK RESIDUE. FINALLY, I HAVE A CHILD NOW AND WHEN HE GETS INTO THE CAR HE HAS PUT HIS HANDS ON THE DASHBOARD AND GOTTEN THE BLACK DEBRIS AND CHEMICALS ON HIS HANDS AND I AM NOW CONCERNED FOR HIS HEALTH AND SAFETY. THERE WAS ALSO A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT WITH THE OIL CONSUMPTION. MY SPOUSE CHANGES MY OIL FOR ME AND OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS COMMENTED THAT I WAS SURPRISINGLY VERY LOW ON OIL. I AM WONDERING WHY I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICE FROM TOYOTA FOR EITHER OF THESE ISSUES EVEN THOUGH THEY CLAIM NOTICES WERE SENT OUT. I HAVE OPENED A CASE WITH TOYOTA #1911082336. THEY TELL ME THAT I AM OUT OF THE WINDOW FOR REPAIR AND IT WOULD NOW HAVE TO BE OUT OF POCKET WHICH IS VERY FRUSTRATING CONSIDERING I NOTIFIED THEM OF THE DASHBOARD ISSUE BEFORE.

THE PASSENGER SIDE DASHBOARD WHERE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS, YOU CAN VISIBLY SEE THE LINES AND IT IS SLIGHTLY RAISED IN THE MIDDLE. I'VE NEVER OWN A VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY A NEW CAR THAT YOU COULD VISIBLY SEE THE EXACT LINES WHERE THE AIRBAG DEPLOYS. I WOULDN'T BE CONCERNED, BUT I KNOW IF THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON ANOTHER CAMRY NEAR ME.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
WHEN ONE STARTS THE CAR BY PUSHING THE START BOTTOM, THE CAR WILL START TO SHAKE AND SOON A VERY LOAD CRACKING AND RATTLING NOISE WILL BEGAN COMING FROM THE ENGINE. ENGINE LIGHT WILL COME ON WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY AND THEN TURNS OFF CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BE AWARE OF SOME ISSUE. ONCE THE CONCERNING NOISE GOES AWAY THE CAR CONTINUES TO SHAKE BUT EVENTUALLY STOPS AFTER A WHILE. THIS COULD MAKE THE CAR TO STALL AND CAUSING A POTENTIAL CRASH. THE VEHICLE LEFT BLIND SIDE DETECTOR DOES NOT RESPOND 100%, IT ONLY WORKS ABOUT 60% OF THE TIME. THIS CAUSES THE DRIVER TO THINK HE/SHE ARE CLEAR TO TURN TO THE LEFT LANE IN THE CITY AND HIGHWAY AND IT CAN CAUSE THE DRIVER TO HIT ANOTHER CAR AND POTENTIALLY CRASHING. THE SCREEN PANEL GLITCHES FROM TIME TO TIME WHILE DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY CAUSING THE DRIVER TO NOT BE ABLE TO SEE AND LOCATE RADIO STATIONS OR MANIPULATE THE PANEL.

MY DASHBOARD HAS A STICKY FILM AND WHEN SUNLIGHT IS PRESENT IT'S HAZARDOUS TO SEE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING CONCERN WITH TOYOTA CARS BETWEEN 2007-2009. I CONTACTED TOYOTA FOR GENERAL INFORMATION FOR REPLACEMENT ON 26 OCT 19. ACCORDING TO A TOYOTA REP ON 1 NOV 19, RECALL NOTICES WERE SENT TO REGISTERED OWNERS BY REACHING OUT THROUGH THEIR LOCAL MVA IN THE STATE OF MARYLAND. ALL VEHICLES I EVER OWNED WERE ALWAYS REGISTERED BUT I NEVER RECEIVED A CORRESPONDENCE FROM THE TOYOTA. NOW THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED AND I'M RESPONSIBLE SHOULD I WANT TO MAKE THE REPAIR AND NO OTHER RESOLUTIONS. THIS WHAT I RECEIVED FROM TOYOTA AFTER BEING A LOYAL CUSTOMER.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THERE IS SIGNIFICANT DISTORTION OF VISIBILITY THROUGH THE REAR WINDSHIELD DURING BOTH DAY AND NIGHT, MOVING AND STOPPED.THE BIGGEST ISSUE AT NIGHT IS THAT ONE VEHICLE APPEARS MULTIPLIED WITH MULTIPLE SETS OF HEADLIGHTS, MOSTLY UP AND DOWN WITH THE DEFOGGING LINES BUT ALSO IN A WAVY PATTERN BETWEEN DEFOGGER LINES. DURING THE DAYTIME, IT OBSCURES THE EDGES OF VEHICLES WITH THE WAVY PATTERN AND HAS THE SAME HEADLIGHT ISSUE AS NIGHTTIME DRIVING IF IT'S RAINING. THERE IS NO AFTER-MARKET TINT APPLIED AND THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE TO THE WINDSHIELD. IT MAKES CHANGING LANES AT NIGHT OR IN THE RAIN DIFFICULT AND UNSAFE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD BEHIND ME SINCE THE DISTORTION MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE DISTANCE AND WHICH LANE THEY MAY BE IN.

VEHICLE DRIVING NORMALLY UNTIL 85000 MILES. SPORADICALLY NOW PULLS HARD TO RIGHT OR LEFT AT LOW SPEEDS. SEEMS DEPENDENT UPON WHEEL POSITION WHEN IGNITION IS TURNED OFF. WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURS, TURNING THE WHEELS TO STRAIGHT POSITION PRIOR TO TURNING IGNITION OFF SEEMS TO CORRECT TEMPORARILY.

WHEELS
I RECENTLY HAD A FLAT TIRE AFTER HITTING SOMETHING LAYING ON A BRIDGE AND WENT TO PLACE MY SPARE TIRE ON MY VEHICLE, AND COULD NOT REMOVE THE LUG NUTS. BROUGHT THE CAR TO AN AUTOMOTIVE SHOP AND THEY COULD ALSO NOT REMOVE THE LUG NUTS AND SAID THEY WERE SWOLLEN VERY BAD AND NONE OF THEIR TOOLS FIT. OVERALL THE LUG NUTS WERE SWOLLEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE THEY WERE SWOLLEN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS FOR DRIVER SAFETY CAUSING DRIVERS TO DRIVE ON FLAT TIRES UNTIL REACHING A PLACE THEY CAN PUT AIR INTO THEIR TIRES. ALSO, THE FACT THAT AUTOMOTIVE SHOPS CAN NOT TAKE OFF THE LUG NUTS EITHER MEANS COSTLY REPAIRS FOR THE DRIVER.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE TOYOTA MELTING DASHBOARD IS HORRENDOUS. MY DASHBOARD IS SO GOOEY AND SHINY THAT ON ANY DAY WITH MILD SUN IT IS HARD TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD BECAUSE OF THE REFLECTION/SHINE. I AM VERY WORRIED THIS WILL LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS NOT A COSMETIC ISSUE, IT IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS.
