FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
MY CAR, SINCE THE PURCHASE AT 51 MILES, IS CONSTANTLY NOT ACCELERATING WHEN I PUSH THE GAS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO ALLEN TOYOTA, 11 JULY 2020, WHERE THEY STATED THERE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH CALIBRATION. THE CALIBRATION WAS COMPLETED, BUT THE CAR IS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. ONCE THE CAR HAS BEEN IN PARK AND STATIONARY FOR A FEW HOURS, IT IS AWFUL WHEN TAKING OFF BECAUSE THE CAR JERKS AND ACTS AS IF IT WILL TURN OFF. THE CAR NOW IS JERKING WHEN DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH DAILY. THIS IS DANGEROUS SINCE I CANNOT DEPEND ON THE CAR TO SPEEDUP WHEN AND AS NEEDED AND I'M AFRAID IT MY STALL AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE FIRST PROBLEM: THE CAR HAS ACCELERATION DELAYS, IT BUCKS AND LAGS WHEN SWITCHING LANES AND DRIVING IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE CAR JERKS WHEN ACCELERATING AT SLOW SPEEDS. I ALMOST GOT INTO A SERIOUS ACCIDENT DUE TO THE ACCELERATION DELAYS WHEN MAKING A LEFT IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS, I RECEIVED A VEHICLE ALERT MESSAGE ON MAY 30TH AT 10:30AM REGARDING THE SRS AIRBAG SYSTEM. "A MALFUNCTION IN THE SRS AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS BEEN DETECTED. CONTACT YOUR TOYOTA DEALER TO HAVE YOUR VEHICLE INSPECTED." THE AIRBAG CHECK LIGHT NEVER LIGHTED SO I DIDN'T SEE THIS MESSAGE UNTIL A MONTH IN A HALF LATER. DANGEROUS FOR MY PASSENGER WHICH IS USUALLY MY OLDEST SON. THE CAR IS IN THE DEALERSHIP NOW AND THEY ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE AIRBAG ISSUE. I FEEL UNSAFE IN MY CAR DUE TO ACCELERATION DELAYS. THE VIN# IS NOT IN THE RECALL LIST AND I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY NOT. IT HAS THE SAME ISSUES AS THE OTHER CARS BEING RECALLED. THE THIRD PROBLEM: VERY RANDOMLY THE SEAT BELT ALERT ALARM WILL START BEEPING WHILE I'M DRIVING MY SMALLEST SON. BOTH OF US HAVE OUR SEAT BELTS AND I DO NOT OWN A BIG HEAVY BAG. THE CAR WONT STOP UNTIL I PULL OVER, PARK, TURN IT OFF AND ON. THIS IS NOT NORMAL BUT IT HAPPENS VERY RANDOMLY.

POWER TRAIN
IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, TRAVELING AT SLOW SPEEDS WITH AC ON IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER, IF CHANGING TO A FASTER LANE, HAVING THE GAS FLOORED, THE CAR WOULDN'T ACCELERATE/DOWN SHIFT THAT LASTED ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS BEFORE IT ACCELERATED. ONE TIME, A CAR THAT WAS TWO CARS IN FRONT OF ME PULLED OUT AND HE WAS GONE, WHILE I WAS STILL SITTING THERE WITH NO ACCELERATION AND ANOTHER CAR QUICKLY APPROACHING FROM THE REAR! I WAS TOLD THAT OTHERS WERE COMPLAINING ABOUT THESE ISSUES, THEY FELT THE PROBLEM BUT IT IS NORMAL OPERATIONS FOR THE 4 CYL CAMRY'S, THAT THE TRANSMISSION IS COMPUTER CONTROLLED, AND THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO UNTIL TOYOTA PUT OUT A MOD FOR THE COMPUTER. THEY SAID TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE SOMETHING OUT SOON WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS, BUT IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR AND NO REPAIR AVAILABLE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE ENGINE BEGAN TO STALL. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON SIDE THE ROAD TO PREVENT FROM GETTING HIT BY AN 18 WHEELER FROM THE REAR. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE A WHILE LONGER BEFORE THE ENGINE STALLED AGAIN. I HAD TO GET THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THEY REPORTED AN ISSUE WITH THE FUEL PUMP. THE DEALERSHIP REPORTED HAVING MANY ISSUES WITH THE FUEL PUMP FOR THE 2019 CAMRY. ON THE DATE OF JUNE 29TH REPAIR APPOINTMENT, THEY REPORTED THEY FUEL PUMP IS ON BACK ORDER AND THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET THE PART UNTIL JULY 22ND, 2020 DUE TO SO MANY VEHICLES HAVING THAT DEFECT. HOWEVER, THE PART IS UNDER WARRANTY AND WOULD BE COVERED. AS A RESULT, I HAD TO PRIVATELY RENT A VEHICLE WITHOUT BEING OFFERED A LOANER CAR OR A RENTAL FOR 2 WEEKS. I HAD TO SPEND APPROXIMATELY 1,000 IN EXPENSES TO COVER THE COST OF NOT HAVING A VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP IN A REMOTE AREA FAR FROM HOME AND WORK. MY DISABLED MOTHER HAD TO BOOK A HOTEL TO CHECK THE VEHICLE STATUS THE FOLLOWING DAY WITH MY FATHER. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 8 MONTHS WITH 29,000 MILES. WHEN I PLACED MY VIN NUMBER IN THE SYSTEM, MY VEHICLE WASN'T IDENTIFIED OR QUALIFIED AS A RECALL IN THE SYSTEM DESPITE THE DEALERSHIP CONFIRMING THEIR WERE PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL PUMP AND THE DESCRIPTION OF THE VEHICLE DEFECT MATCHING ONE OF THE 5 IDENTIFIED RECALLS RELATED TO THE TOYOTA CAMRY. BASED ON MY VIN #, MY VEHICLE DIDN'T QUALIFY FOR ANY RECALLS, WHEN I CALLED THE TOYOTA RECALL OFFICE, THEY REPORTED MY VEHICLE DIDN'T MEET RECALL STANDARDS .THE KELLY BLUE BOOK REPORTED 5 DIFFERENT RECALLS AND THEIR DESCRIPTIONS IN RELATION TO THE 2019 CAMRY. I NOTICED THE FUEL PUMP DEFECT/SYMPTOMS MATCHED WITH MY VEHICLE OUT OF THE 5 IDENTIFIED RECALLS.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2019 CAMRY PRE-OWNED. IT RAN FINE FOR A WEEK UNTIL IT WOULD START A JERKING MOTION AND THE ENGINE JUST TURNS OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT ESPECIALLY ON A BUSY HIGHWAY. THANKFULLY I WAS NEAR AN AUTOZONE. WHILE IN THE JERKING MOTION, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IN A WEEK THAT THE CAR HAS STALLED OUT WHILE DRIVING. *TR

ENGINE
VEHICLE LACKS POWER AFTER SLOWING DOWN AT A YIELD SIGNS OR CORNERS, (NOT EVERY TIME) WHEN YOU TRY TO INCREASE SPEED IT TAKES A SECOND FOR THE POWER TO INCREASE. ON HIGHWAYS, THE RPMS WILL INCREASE OR DECREASE 100-700 AT TIMES WITH OR WITHOUT THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED SEEMS TO BE A FUEL SUPPLY ISSUE. BEEN TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS AND THEY CAN NEVER DUPLICATE THE ISSUE IN THE SERVICE CENTERS. STARTED RIGHT BEFORE THE 15,000 MILE SERVICE AND CONTINUES NOW AT 30,000 MILE SERVICE. *TR

PRIMARILY OCCURS AFTER CAR IS MOVING SLOWLY AND SEEMS AS IF THE CAR IS STRUGGLING TO TAKE OFF, THIS HAPPENS UPON STOPPING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND TAKING OFF AND UPON DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY THEN TRYING TO GET UP TO THE SPEED WITH TRAFFIC. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THIS COMPLAINT IS FOR ALL CARS. WHEN DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN IT IS IMPORTANT TO TURN ON HEADLIGHTS IN ORDER FOR THE TAILLIGHTS TO ILLUMINATE. ALMOST NO ONE DOES THIS ANYMORE DUE TO DRL AND AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHTS. DURING A RECENT VERY HEAVY RAINSTORM IT WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE CARS AHEAD OF ME, ALMOST RESULTING IN A COLLISION. IT SHOULD BE MANDATORY THAT THE TAILLIGHTS COME ON ANYTIME THE WIPERS ARE ACTIVE. THIS IS SERIOUS. *TR

STEERING
PURCHASED END OF NOV 2018. TWO MONTHS LATER, STEERING KEPT GOING OUT SPORADICALLY. HAVE TAKEN IT IN MULTIPLE TIMES STARTING IN 3/19, AGAIN IN APRIL, AGAIN IN MAY WHEN THEY REPLACED THE STEERING GEAR. STEERING CONTINUED TO GO OUT RANDOMLY. TOOK IT IN AGAIN IN OCTOBER 2019 - STEERING GOING OUT. REPLACED ACTIVE GEAR SHUTTER, ONLY TO HAVE THE LIGHT COME BACK ON 3 MILES AWAY.TOOK CAR BACK AGAIN 21 DAYS LATER AND THEY STILL CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. ON MAY 10TH, WENT OUT MULTIPLE TIMES ON A WINDY CANYON. TODAY, MAY 12, THEY REFUSED TO EVEN LOOK AT THE CAR. WE HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO TAKE LEGAL ACTION. WE HAVE ALL DOCUMENTATION. ANY ASSISTANCE YOU CAN PROVIDE WOULD BE HELPFUL. WE ARE NOW BEING TOLD IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER FIXED.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
I HAVE A 2019 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID LE WHICH PURCHASED AS BRAND NEW. AFTER 2-3 MONTHS OF DRIVING, I NOTICED THAT AT LOW SPEEDS AND PARTICULARLY WHEN THE ROAD IS VERY FLAT IF THE CAR HITS ANY KIND OF POTHOLE OR BUMP, THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT BREAKS (OR MAYBE THE CVT GEARS ENGAGING FOR REGENERATIVE BREAKING) AND SOMETIMES EVEN THE ABS LIGHT STARTS SHINING IN THE DASHBOARD. THIS IS NOT EASILY REPLICABLE BUT IT'S MOST LIKELY TO HAPPEN WHEN SLOWING DOWN BEHIND A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT. AT HIGHER SPEEDS OR IF THE BREAKS ARE APPLIED WITH HIGHER FORCE THIS ISSUE IS ALMOST ENTIRELY NOT PRESENT. ALSO, I'VE NOT NOTICED IT WHILE THE VEHICLE IS TURNING, IT USUALLY ONLY HAPPENS WHEN SLOWING DOWN ON A STRAIGHT AND FLAT ROAD AND SUDDENLY ONE OF THE TIRES GOES OFF BALANCE. *TR
