SEAT BELTS
THIS ISN'T AN INCIDENT, BUT APPARENTLY HAS LED TO AN INCIDENT FOR MANY. DRIVERS SIDE SHOULDER BELTS EASILY FOLD OVER ITSELF ON THE SIDE, SO THEN WON'T RETRACT THROUGH THE SLOT IN THE PILLAR. ***SAFETY ISSUE*** DUE TO DESIGN, HAPPENED A LOT. REPLACEMENT OF ASSEMBLY SEEMS TO NOT BE A RELIABLE FIX, PER MANY OWNERS, AND NOT JUST CAMRY, MANY YEARS. ***NO RECALL NEEDED: ***IF TOYOTA MADE INFO ON HOW TO DEAL WITH IT FINDABLE AND AVAILABLE, OWNERS COULD RESOLVE IT - OVER AND OVER. ***TOYOTA & DEALERS HAVEN'T MADE THE INFO AVAILABLE. I SPENT THREE HOURS ONLINE, COUNTLESS PEOPLE ASKING HOW DO I..... IF A PERSON KNOWS HOW, THEY CAN UNDO THE PROBLEM, THEN CAN MINIMIZE PROBABILITY OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN *** BY SLOWLY PULLING BELT, AND *** ESPECIALLY RELEASING IT SLOWLY. ***WHEN IT GETS MESSED UP, MOVE THE SHOULDER HEIGHT ADJUSTER ON THE PILLER UP AND DOWN UNTIL IT FIXES. JUST ABOUT EXACTLY THAT INFORMATION SHOULD BE PROVIDED TO EACH PERSON WHO NEWLY ACQUIRES A USED CAMRY. I HAVE NO IDEA WHETHER THE PROBLEM IS SEEN ON 2018, BUT ONLINE REPORTS INDICATES IT IS ON MANY MODEL YEARS, AND *** NOT JUST CAMRYS.

STEERING
AT 25-40 MPR THE STEERING UNEXPECTEDLY VEERS RIGHT OR LEFT. WHEN MAKING A TURN, STEERING FREQUENTLY DOES NOT RETURN TO NORMAL. ON OCCASION, THE STEERING SLOWLY PULLS LEFT OR RIGHT AS IF THE TIRE HAS LOW INFLATION. I CONSIDER THIS TO BE A DANGER TO MYSELF AND OTHERS. ALTHOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS STEERING COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE 2015 CAMRY, THE DEALER SAID THAT OUR VIN# IS NOT ON A RECALL LIST. I WOULD APPRECIATE ADDITIONAL INVESTIGATION BY THE NHTSA.

THEY HAVE NOW MOVED LOCATIONS. ISSUE 2: DRIVER'S SIDE SUN-VISOR WILL NOT MAINTAIN POSITION. IT FLOPS DOWN IN DRIVER'S VISION. BOTH ISSUES RESULTED WHILE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

STEERING
CAR WILL PULL HARD LEFT ON OCCASION WHILE DRIVING. ONCE CAR IS STOPPED AND RE-STARTED, ISSUE GOES AWAY. PULL IS HARD ENOUGH TO FORCE CAR INTO ON-COMING TRAFFIC. ALL EQUIPMENT HAS BEEN CHECKED AND VERIFIED IN GOOD WORKING ORDER MULTIPLE TIMES. MECHANICS BELIEVE ISSUE MAY BE WITH ELECTRONIC STEERING CONTROL BUT CANNOT VERIFY AS ISSUE CANNOT BE DUPLICATED AND IS RANDOM. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON HIGHWAYS, PARKING LOTS, CITY STREETS, ETC. CONDITION IS NOT AFFECTED BY DRIVING SURFACE. LAST OCCURANCE WAS 7/7/18.

SERVICE BRAKES
DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 70MPH WHEN THE DASHBOARD LIT UP WITH SEVERAL LIGHTS, INCLUDING EMERGENCY, BRAKE AND ABS, AND A CHECK VSC SYSTEM INDICATION. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO CRUISE AND CAREFULLY APPLY THE BRAKE AT SEVERAL INTERVALS TO STOP. THIS IS AN ONGOING AND KNOWN ABS ACTUATOR PROBLEM IN 07 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRIDS. THE TOYOTA DEALER WILL NOT COVER THE $3K COST TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR BECAUSE IT IS PAST THE 10 YEAR LIMIT. PLEASE EITHER ISSUE A RECALL OR EXTEND THE WARRANTY. THIS IS NOT SAFE FOR CONSUMERS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
WRITING ABOUT THE SUN VISORS ON THE 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY. SEEMS UNUSUAL TO ME THAT I'VE HAD TWO OF THEM THAT I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE IN THE PAST 2 YEARS. IN BOTH CASES, THE SUN VISORS LOST THEIR ABILITY TO STAY UPRIGHT AND STARTED DROPPING DOWN INTO THE DRIVERS' VISUAL FIELD WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENED TO THE VISORS ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. I BOUGHT REPLACEMENTS AND INSTALLED THEM MYSELF. NOT HUGELY EXPENSIVE JUST SEEMS LIKE A DEFECT, AND POTENTIAL SAFETY HAZARD, THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED. I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND SO MANY YOUTUBE VIDEOS ONLINE ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM. THEY HELPED ME DO THE REPAIR MYSELF, BUT SEEMS TO SIGNAL THAT THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR MANY OWNERS OF THESE TOYOTA CARS. I'M ONLY LISTING THE DATE OF THE LAST ONE I REPLACED. THE FIRST ONE OCCURRED WITHIN THE PAST TWO YEARS.

SERVICE BRAKES
BRAKE SYSTEM MAKES A LOUD 'CLACK' NOISE WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING IN REVERSE AND DRIVER APPLY THE SERVICE BRAKES PEDAL. TOYOTA DEALER STATED THAT THIS NOISE IS NORMAL. THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS SITUATION HAPPENS EVERY DAY INDEPENDENTLY OF HOW MANY HOURS OR DAYS VEHICLE BEING PARKED. NOISE CAN BE REPRODUCED ON PRIVATE GARAGE, PUBLIC ROAD AND OR HIGHWAY. THAT DISGUSTING NOISE IS ALWAYS THERE. TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING ANY ACTION ABOUT THIS... MAYBE THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET HURT OR KILL DUE TO DEFECTIVE BRAKE SYSTEM.

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT A 2018 TOYOYA CAMRY SE IN APRIL AND I HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS EVER SINCE. THE ETUNE RADIO SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY WITH MY PHONE. I HAVE TO RECONNECT MY PHONE TO THE CAR WHILE I'M DRIVING TO GET MY MUSIC TO PLAY AFTER A PHONE CALL. THE AIR CONDITIONING DOESN'T COOL PROPERLY, AT TIMES I HAVE TO SET IT ON "LOW" IN ORDER TO GET IT TO COOL. OTHER TIMES, I CAN HAVE IT SET ON 80 AND IT COOLS. WHEN I PARK MY CAR AND GET OUT, I CAN SMELL RADIATOR FLUID. THE ACCELERATION DOESN'T' WORK PROPERLY. SOME TIMES I PRESS THE GAS AND THE CAR TAKES OFF SMOOTH, OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T. THERE IS A GAP IN TIME BETWEEN ME PRESSING THE GAS AND THE CAR ACTUALLY TAKING OFF.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE DASHBOARD GAUGES SUDDENLY DROP DEAD. ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT ON. A/C IS GETTING AFFECTED. ALL THE NEEDLES START DANCING. CAR STARTS SHAKING AND GETTING WARM. IT COMES AND GOES. SIMILAR YEAR CARS HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT. APPARENTLY IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ABS MODULE SHORT CIRCUITING. THIS IS A BIG LIFE AND SAFETY CONCERN AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECAL PLEASE. THIS HAPPENS ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE.

ENGINE
TOYOTA RECALL - THE ENGINE IS BURNING TOO MUCH OIL WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO FAIL AND OIL TO BURN AT AN ACCESSIVE RATE. I HAVE COMPLAINTED OF THIS TO A THE PRIORITY SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I HAVE TO PUT OIL IN THE VEHICLE OFTEN. THERE WAS A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR THIS PROBLEM WHICH TOYOTA ADMITTED THERE WAS A PROBLEM HOWEVER I WAS NEVER INFORMED EVEN WHEN I CONSTANTLY COMPLAINED OF THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE HAS FALTY PARTS AND THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO FIX THESE PARTS

TOYOTA CAMRY MODELS OF 2014 (RAV4S ALSO) AND AFTER HAVE DEFECTIVE ENTERTAINMENT STEREO LCDS. THE LOWER HALF OF THE LCD STOPS WORKING AND YOU CAN NOT CONNECT PHONE VIA BLUETOOTH. ITS A BIG PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING. TOYOTA DENIES THE REPAIR AT THEIR COST SAYING THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY. ITS JUST NOT AN ISOLATED SITUATION BUT ITS WIDE SPREAD. INTERNET FORUMS ARE FILLED WITH THIS PROBLEM. A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE SUFFERED DUE TO THIS.
