AIR BAGS
FREQUENTLY, THE INDICATOR FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SAYS "OFF", EVEN WHEN SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT. OCCASIONALLY IT SAYS "ON" WHEN THERE IS NO ONE IN THE SEAT.

MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2012 SE HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT AND IT STARTED TO DO A HARD SHIFT INTO SECOND GEAR THAT RESULTED IN ME NEEDING A NEW TRANSMISSION. I SEE ONLINE THAT A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING TRANSMISSION ISSUES WITH THEIR 2012 CAMRY. I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED ALREADY?!?! I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF MY CAR AND HAVE ALWAYS ENJOYED OWNING A TOYOTA BUT NOW I HAVE LOST FAITH IN THE QUALITY OF THE BRAND. IF TOYOTA DOESN'T FIX THIS PROBLEM AND I THEN I AM DONE WITH TOYOTA.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
ENGINE OPERATES WITH EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE. CONSUMES/LOSES 1 QUART OF OIL IN 700 MILES AS OF THIS FILING DATE. I WENT TO TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER AT 12/2011 AT 82,700 MILES AND THEY SAID NO PROBLEM - 1 QUART USAGE PER 1000 MILES IS NORMAL. ALSO, DOOR LOCKS STOPPED WORKING AT 45,000 MILES OR SO.

I NOTICED RECENTLY THAT I WAS HAVING TO ADD OIL BETWEEN 3K OIL CHANGE. SINCE THEN I HABE DISCOVERED ONLINE THE TSB 0094-11. I RAN A CK ON THE ODOMETER AFTER ADDING OIL AND YES IT IS RIGHT AT 1200 MILES. THAT WOULD MEAN 2QTS OF OIL ADDED BETWEEN 3000 MI. OIL CHANGE.

ENGINE
WENT TO GET AN OIL CHANGE FROM TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS - THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WERE RUN AND IT DETECTED NORMAL (TESTED TWICE BECAUSE INCONCLUSIVE). THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON WHEN TRAVELING OUT OF STATE, THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF LOSE OF ENGINE OIL AND THEN CAR MADE A STRANGE SOUND. VEHICLE STOPPED ON THE BRIDGE, IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMETHING WAS BRAGGING WITH THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AND PRESENTED NOT SIGNS OF PROBLEMS WHEN THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED, THE VEHICLE WAS NORMALLY SERVICED AT DEALERSHIPS AND HAVE ALWAYS RESPONDED TO UPDATES. THE MOTOR DID NOT SHOW SIGNS OF WEAR OR TEAR, WAS TAKEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE AND DID NOT KNOW OF THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THE VEHICLE IS NOW LOCATED IN VIRGINIA BEACH, THE MILEAGE IS OVER 260,000 AND TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED BACK TO MY RESIDENCE WOULD BE TOO COSTLY. THE VEHICLE REPAIRS HAVE BEEN ESTIMATED TO COST $3000 TO REPAIR THE MOTOR AND MORE TO REPLACE THE MOTOR.

ENGINE
THE CAR MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN KEPT UP PER THE MANUFACTURER AND ALWAYS TAKEN TO THE TOYOTA DEALER. THE CAR WAS MAKING A LOUD UNUSUAL NOISE FROM THE ENGINE; TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THE OIL STICK WAS COMPLETELY DRY. THIS WAS AFTER JUST HAVING A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE ABOUT A MONTH EARLIER. ABOUT 1,000 TO 1,200 MILES LATER, THE SAME THING, NO OIL ON THE DIP STICK. INTERESTINGLY, THERE IS NO OIL LEAK IN THE DRIVEWAY EITHER. THE SERVICE ADVISER EXPLAINED THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT COULD BE AND THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE 2010 CAMRY FOR THIS TYPE ISSUE. THEY TOPPED OFF THE OIL AGAIN AND SAID TO COME BACK AT THE 1,000 MILE MARK TO HAVE IT CHECKED AGAIN AND TO CHECK IT WEEKLY AS WELL. MADE IT TO ABOUT 800 MILES AND AGAIN NO OIL. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AS TOYOTA CORPORATION GOT TO KNOW THAT THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND NEED TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT DRIVING A CAR WITH NO OIL SINCE THE OIL LIGHT NEVER COMES ON EITHER AS A WARNING. LASTLY, THE ADVISER DID SAY IT MAY BE SOMETHING WITH THE ENGINE THAT WOULD COST US UPWARD OF $5K TO $6K.

SUN VISORS ARE FAULTY DESIGN. HEAT (SUN) CAUSE EXPANSION OF THE PLASTIC JOINTS TO EXPAND/CONTRACT EVENTUALLY LEADING TO FAILURE. THE VISOR HANGS DOWN BLOCKING DRIVER'S VISION. REPLACEMENTS COST $90 OR MORE AND THE SAME PROBLEM EXISTS BECAUSE OF FAULTY DESIGN.

AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK AND UNLOCK STOPS WORKING. MY CAR HAD JUST PASSED 60K WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN OR LOCK BY PRESSING THE KEY FOB. AFTER COUPLE MONTH ALL 4 DOORS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK ALL 4 DOORS BY MANUALLY UNLOCKING USING THE KEY. AFTER RESEARCH FOUND OUT THE DOOR ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ON ALL 4 DOORS AND MULTIPLE TOYOTA AND LEXUS OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

AIR BAGS
YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON CITY STREETS WITH MY WIFE ON THE PASSENGER SEAT THE PASSENGER "AIR BAG OFF" LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. THE CAR HAS 78,131 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE TOYOTA OWNER'S MANUAL STATES THAT THE "AIR BAG OFF" INDICATOR MEANS THAT THE PASSENGER AIR BAG SYSTEM IS DISABLED. I CHECKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT I DID NOT SEE THAT TOYOTA HAS TAKEN ANY ACTION. OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BEFORE SOMEONE GET INJURED OR KILLED. IF THERE IS A RECALL NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
HESITATION/LAGGING ISSUES AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW SPEEDS- HESITATES BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION - SHIFTS ARE HORRIBLE THE CAR JERKS A LOT- IN CRUISE CONTROL GOING 70-75 MPH JERKS HARD, WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OF IT. ACCELERATION IS HORRIBLE SO MUCH SO, THAT WE ALMOST GET REAR ENDED WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC. THIS STARTED A WEEK AFTER I PURCHASED THIS IN JULY- JAN 13 WE WERE ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT TO CAR NOT ACCELERATING AND JERKING

I HAD RECEIVED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERAGE LETTER FOR THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION MORE THAN A YEAR AGO. NO ISSUES UNTIL POSSIBLY OCTOBER 2017 WHEN OIL MAINTENANCE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON EVENT AFTER OIL CHANGE AFTER JUST 1000 MILES (USUALLY EVERY 5000 MILES BEFORE). THEN GOT CAR CHECKED OUT AND MECHANIC FOUND ALMOST NO OIL IN CAR. CAR WAS DRIVING POORLY WITH SOMETIMES STALLING. I GOT AN OIL CHANGE AND CAR WORKED FINE FOR 2 WEEKS AND HAD SAME PROBLEM.AGAIN, BY THIS TIME, I REMEMBERED THE WARRANTY AND WENT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHERE THE TOLD ME THE WARRANTY WAS NOT VALID DUE TO CAR BEING OVER 10 YEARS OLD. ANYWAY THEY FILLED CAR WITH OIL AND TOLD ME TO RETURN IN 1100-1300 MILES FOR THE RESULTS OF THE TEST WHICH I WILL LATER KNOW. I DON'T HAVE MUCH HOPE OF GETTING THIS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY.
