VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE DASHBOARD OF THE CAR IS MELTING AND HAS BECOME VERY SHINY CAUSING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT PARTIALLY OBSCURES THE VIEW OF THE ROAD, PARTICULARLY WHEN THERE IS BRIGHT SUNSHINE. TOYOTA ALREADY ACKNOWLEDGES THE SAFETY ISSUE AND EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE DASHBOARD TO 10 YEARS. MY CAR (PURCHASED NEW) DID NOT EXHIBIT THE MELTING ISSUE UNTIL AFTER WE MOVED IT FROM NORTHERN STATES, MD AND MI TO FL STARTING IN JAN 2016. THE FAILURE ONLY APPARENT AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OR 10 YEARS EXPIRED IN OCT 2017. THE REFLECTION OF THE DASHBOARD UPPER SURFACE ON WINDOW IS HIGHLY DISTRACTING AND SIGNIFICANTLY OBSCURES VISION OF THE ROAD.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WHEN THE HORN SOUNDED, AND WE NOTICED FLAMES SHOOTING OUT OF THE DRIVER'S DOOR PANEL. WHEN THE FIRE WAS PUT OUT, IT WAS CLEAR IT HAD ORIGINATED FROM THE DRIVER'S DOOR CONTROLS, AND WAS LOCALIZED TO THAT AREA. THE MALFUNCTION WAS RELATED TO THE VISIBILITY: POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS. THIS INCIDENT IS RELATED TO A RECALL. THE RECALL NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 12V491000. (10/12)

ENGINE
THE CAR IS USING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. 4-6 QUARTS BETWEEN 3000 MILE OIL CHANGES! THE PROBLEM HAS GOTTEN INCREASINGLY WORSE SINCE NOTICING AN INCREASE IN CONSUMPTION STARTING AROUND 2016. ONLY AFTER SEARCHING THE INTERNET FOR A FIX WAS I MADE AWARE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS WELL KNOWN BY TOYOTA. I NEVER RECEIVED ANY BULLETINS OR RECALLS FROM TOYOTA AS THEY HAVE CLAIMED. I HOPE THEY WILL PROVIDE SOME TYPE OF HELP IN REPAIRING THIS ISSUE AS IT IS VERY COSTLY TO MAINTAIN, MUCH LESS REPAIR. VERY DISAPPOINTING FROM A SEEMINGLY RELIABLE MANUFACTURER THAT CLAIMS TO BUILD DEPENDABLE VEHICLES.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
CAR SEEMS TO HAVE SLIGHT FUEL FEED PROBLEM - YOU CAN FEEL THE CAR SLIGHTLY HESITATING SOMETIMES WHEN JUST DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO BUSY BOULEVARD, AFTER YOU HAVE PULLED HALF WAY OUT IN THE ROAD, THE CAR WILL NOT GO, EVEN THO YOU ARE STEPPING ON THE GAS. THIS IS VERY SCARY, BECAUSE THE OTHER CARS ARE COMING AT YOU, AND THEY ARE EXPECTING YOU TO MOVE ON OUT OF THE WAY. THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT: IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN MOSTLY AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN A LITTLE BIT, LIKE GOING TO THE STORE, THEN CAR SITS FOR AWHILE, THEN YOU GET BACK IN AND DRIVE, AND THAT IS WHEN IT HAPPENS.

TOYOTA STATED I HAD JUST MISSED THE 10 YEAR EXTENSION ON THE PART REPLACEMENT , EVEN THOUGH THE CAR HAS 70K MILES ON IT ,AND WOULD HAVE TO PAY APPROXIMATELY 1700-2600$ FOR THIS REPLACEMENT. RECALL THIS PART TOYOTA! HOW LONG NHTSA ?

THE CAR CLOCK HAS BEEN RUNNING FAST (4-5 MINUTES AFTER SIX MONTHS) STARTING FROM THE DATE PURCHASED (MAY 2015). MORE CRITICALLY, THE CLOCK STARTED TO SUDDEN CHANGE THE TIME AFTER STARTING THE CAR ENGINE. THE CLOCK SUDDEN CHANGE ISSUES HAVE HAPPENED THREE TIMES RECENTLY (FIRST ONE IN SEPTEMBER 2017, SECOND ONE IN JANUARY 2018, AND THIRD ONE IN APRIL 2018). ALTHOUGH IT REFLECTS ON CLOCK CHANGING BUT IT IS NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE EVEN MORE SERIOUS (LIKE ENGINE....). I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA DEALER AND TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE REGARDING THE ISSUES IN JANUARY 2018 AND APRIL 2018. HOWEVER, THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSED TO TAKE CARE OF ISSUES. PLEASE HELP US TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURER TO TAKE UP THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. THANKS.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
MY WIFE DROVE MY 2013 TOYOTA CAMRY SE DOWN TO THE TWIN CITIES FOR A BRIDAL SHOWER ON SATURDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 28, 2018. SHE HAD JUST GOTTEN ON TO I-494, DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WHEN SHE HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE A GUN SHOT. THE VISOR WAS OPEN, AND THE SUN ROOF WAS CLOSED, AND SHARDS OF TEMPERED GLASS RAINED IN ON HER. SHE WASN'T NEAR AN OVERPASS, OR NEAR ANY TRUCKS. NOR WAS SHE HIT BY ANY FLYING ROCK. SHE PULLED IN TO A GAS STATION, WHERE A NICE GENTLEMAN HELPED HER, BY SCOOPING OUT BROKEN GLASS, AND PUTTING A PIECE OF CARDBOARD INTO THE OPENING. AS SOON AS SHE TEXTED ME ABOUT IT, I GOOGLED "EXPLODING SUN ROOF," AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT SEEMS TO OCCUR WITH A LOT MORE FREQUENCY, ESPECIALLY IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS. I'M JUST THANKFUL THAT SHE WASN'T INJURED IN ANY WAY, AND THAT SHE DIDN'T LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. SHE SAYS IT WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE. SINCE THIS HAPPENED ON A SATURDAY, I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS AN INSURANCE MATTER, OR IF THE DEALERSHIP WILL COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY.
