VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS SLOWLY TURNING TO THE RIGHT INTO A PARKING SPACE AND HAD MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS A TREE THERE TO STOP THE CAR. IN THE PREVIOUS MONTHS, SEVERAL OF THE PANEL WARNING LIGHTS HAD BEEN COMING ON AND OFF. I HAD TOYOTA CHECK THEM. THEY REPLACED THE EGR VALVE BUT IT KEPT HAPPENING SO I TOOK IT BACK. THEY SAID THEY CHECKED EVERYTHING AND COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATING, BUT IT MIGHT HAVE.

MY PASSENGER SIDE VISOR JUST BROKE ABOUT A MONTH AGO. IT'S A 2009, BUT PURCHASED IN 2008. FINALLY GOT MY DASHBOARD REPLACED LAST WEEK ALF ASKED ABOUT THE VISOR. TOYOTA SAYS THEY WON'T FIX IT SINCE ITS PASSED THE WARRANTY TIME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY NOT SINCE IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE, AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH IT DOWN ALL THE TIME. I'VE LOVED MY CAMRY, BUT TO SPEND OVER $100 TO FIX THE VISOR IS STEEP.

POWER TRAIN
TAKATA RECALL LESS THAN 4 YEARS ALTHOUGH WITH LITTLE HIGH MILEAGE, MY BRAND NEW 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY MAKES NOISES WHEN I DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO BALISE TOYOTA SCION OF WARWICK TO CHECK AND SERVICE ADVISOR MENTIONED THAT THE NOISE IS COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. THEY RECOMMENDED REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION AT MY OWN COST. AND THE NOISE IS GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER. WHY IS A BRAND NEW LESS FOUR YEARS OLD CAR NEED REPLACING TRANSMISSION? I HAVE 2 FRIENDS WHO OWNED THE SAME CAR AND MODEL AND YEAR, AND THEY HAVE SAME PROBLEMS WITH THEIR TRANSMISSION. THEY HAD THEIR TRANSMISSION REPLACED UNDER THE WARRANTY BECAUSE OF LOWER MILEAGE. THEREFORE, I THINK 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY'S TRANSMISSION HAS PROBLEM.

TIRES, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
FIRST INCIDENT: JUNE 15, 2016 HEADING TO THE EXPRESSWAY ON MY WAY OUT OF TOWN, THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO SHAKE AND THE CAR STARTED TO BOUNCE. I PULLED INTO A REPAIR SHOP TO GET THE CAR INSPECTED. SECOND INCIDENT SEPTEMBER 22,2016 I WAS OUT OF TOWN, AND THE CAR STARTED TO REPEAT THE SAME AS IN JUNE. I PULLED INTO A TIRE SHOP, AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE STEEL BELT. AGAIN, I EXPLAINED TO THE GENTLEMAN THAT THIS WAS THE SECOND INCIDENT IN LESS THAN A YEAR OF PURCHASING THE CAR. HE ADVISED THAT THE TIRE WAS DEFECTIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER, OR THE CAR SET WITHOUT MOVEMENT, PRIOR TO SELLING AND THE WEATHER BEAT THE TIRES. HE PLACED THE TIRE IN THE TRUNK OF THE CAR AND ADVISED ME TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. IN BOTH INCIDENTS: TIRE HAD TO BE REPLACE BECAUSE OF THE BROKEN STEEL BELT INSIDE THE TIRE WALL.

AFTER 1200 MILES, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO TOYOTA FOR SECOND PART OF THEIR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, AND WAS TOLD IT DIDN'T USE ANY OIL. AFTER PICKING UP MY CAR UP FROM MY TRUSTED MECHANIC (WHO SAID 2/3 OF TOYOTA'S RECOMMENDED REPAIRS TOTALING OVER $1600 WERE NOT TRUE), I WAS TOLD HE HAD TO ADD OIL B/C IT WAS LOW. THIS IS YET ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF TOYOTA LYING TO CUSTOMERS SO THEY DO NOT HAVE TO INCUR COSTS OR ISSUE A VALID RECALL. THEY CLAIM BURNING OIL IS "NORMAL", AND ONLY IF THEIR "TEST" PROVES SO, THEY WOULD REPLACE THE PISTON RINGS - THEY ARE LYING ABOUT THESE TEST RESULTS TO AVOID HAVING TO DO THE EXPENSIVE REPAIR.

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE AND BLOCKS VIEW OF DRIVER. I WAS TOLD BY LOCAL DEALER THAT TOYOTA DOES NOT COVER REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR OF THIS PROBLEM. MANY OTHERS HAVE POSTED SIMILAR PROBLEM ON INTERNET. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM REGARDLESS OF WHETHER VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION.

REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED WHILE SITTING IN DRIVEWAY ON 8/15/15. DASHBOARD VERY SHINY AND STICKY, CAUSING A HORRIBLE GLARE. THE GLARE GETS SO BAD THAT SOMETIMES I CAN'T SEE OTHER DRIVERS. TOYOTA SAYS THEY WILL REPLACE IT WHEN PARTS COME IN, IT'S BEEN 2 YEARS SINCE THEN AND STILL NO PARTS. IN THE MEANTIME, THE GLARE GETS WORSE. IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE AN ACCIDENT OCCURS.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY BOUGHT USED WITH 62,500 MILES ON OCTOBER 4, 2016. ON OCTOBER 8TH I WAS EXITING OFF THE HIGHWAY SLOWLY EASING OFF THE GAS PEDAL TO DECREASE MY SPEED AND MY CAR SHUTS DOWN!!!! STOPS RUNNING !!! I LOST THE POWER STEERING OF COURSE. DID AT LEAST TWO AND A HALF 360'S UNTIL I CAME TO A STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF A 3 LANE ROAD. IT HAPPENED SO FAST I HAVE NO IDEA HOW I KEPT IT FROM LEAVING THE ROAD. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE FRONT END. THEIR THOUGHTS ARE IT SHUT OFF AND TO GO BUY FUEL INJECTOR THE NEXT TIME I GET GAS. I COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED WITH THIS HAPPENING. NOW I'M SO PARANOID ABOUT DRIVING THE CAR AND FEEL VERY UNSAFE.

STRUTS LEAKED AT 50K. TOYOTA REFUSED AND SAID IT WAS NORMAL FOR STRUTS TO LEAK, DEALERSHIP TREATED ME RUDELY THOUGH I WAS INFORMED BY TWO MECHANICS TO HAVE THEM FIX THE ISSUE. CALLED CUSTOMER CARE AND REQUESTED THEY STEP IN, ALL 4 STRUTS ARE BROKEN, THEY OFFERED TO FIX TWO. I PURCHASED THE TOP OF THE LINE EXTENDED CARE WARRANTY, STILL NO RESOLVE. THE CAR WAS IN THE TOYOTA DEALER 12 DAYS BEFORE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED WITH NO MENTION OF THIS, A LOAD OF OTHER ISSUES NONE FIXED. TWO WEEKS AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED IT NEEDS NEW FRONT STRUTS. I PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES LAST YEAR AND THEY CANT BE ROTATED DUE TO WEAR FROM BAD STRUTS. I NEED ANOTHER SET OF TIRES TO STOP THE SHAKING THOUGH WAS INFORMED ONLY STRUTS WILL SAVE ME FROM BUYING ANOTHER SET IN 12 MONTHS. HELP RECALL THIS KNOWN ISSUE. I WILL HAPPILY RELEASE ALL TOYOTA RECORDS ....
