VISIBILITY/WIPER
The dashboard melts. I went to toyota representatives many time and they didn’t help. It is really dangerous when the reflection of the melted dashboard blinds the driver.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
I had a rollover accident in my Camry on 5/13/2021. My brakes locked up which sent me into a spin and then eventually flipping over an embankment. Only one of my airbags deployed and it was the passenger door airbag. The rest of the airbags did not go off. Yes the vehicle is still available for inspection. My safety was put at risk because of the brake malfunction and subsequently because of the airbags not deploying in the manner they are aupoosed to. I rolled the vehicle I'm sure the manner in which h I wrecked would have caused all airbags to deploy. No I never seen a brake or a airbag light on my dashboard. No one else has inspected the vehicle components other than an insurance claims rep to determine my vehicle is a total loss. I'm unsure on who I could have look at it without compromising the integrity of the findings. The brakes however were worked on by jd byrider a week and a half before the accident. They changed my rotors.

SECONDARY WARRANTY... DISCUSSED WITH A SERVICE ADVISOR PRIOR TO THE "2015 WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT". I WAS TOLD NO RECALL, NO LIABILITY. BECAUSE THIS WAS NOT A RECALL TOYOTA MOTOR CORP IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE STICKY DASH RESULTING FROM HEAT OF SUMMER AND WINTER HEATING WHICH CAUSES EYE, THROAT, LUNG IRRITATION, CLOUDING GLARE OF WINDSHIELD AND EYEGLASSES. THE CLOCK MOUNTED ON THE DASH HAS A CLOUD OVER THE PLASTIC COVER MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO READ AS WELL AS PLASTIC COVER OVER DOME LIGHT. AUG 9 2019, I COMMUNICATED VIA EMAIL WITH FRED ANDERSON TOYOTA JEFF DEMEYER | SERVICE DIRECTOR 803.796.6650 [email protected] REGARDING STICKY MELTING DASHBOARD OF MY APPROX. 57,000 MI 2007 CAMRY. HIS REPLY " TOYOTA MOTORS NORTH AMERICA WILL NOT ALLOW A DEALER TO PERFORM ANY WARRANTY EXTENSIONS AFTER THEY HAVE EXPIRED. MY ADVISE WOULD BE TO CALL TOYOTA MOTORS AT (800)331-4331 AND START A CASE SEEKING REPLACEMENT OF THE DASH. IF APPROVED, THEY WILL NOTIFY US WITH AN AUTHORIZATION # AND WE CAN PROCEED WITH THE REPLACEMENT" AUG 10 2019, SPOKE WITH CUSTOMER SERVICE REP (SUSAN) @ TOYOTA MOTORS AT (800)331-4331 REGARDING DASH REPLACEMENT APPROVAL. SERVICE REQUEST DENIED!! OF COURSE THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF MY EVER DISCUSSING THIS MATTER WITH AN ADVISOR PRIOR TO THE WARRANTY NOTIFICATION. TO PARAPHRASE THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP "TO PROVIDE AN EXCEPTION FOR ONE CUSTOMER WOULD MEAN THE EXCEPTION TO BE PROVIDED TO ALL CUSTOMERS", WE HAVE PARAMETERS IN PLACE WHICH DOES NOT ALLOW REPAIR BEYOND THE WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT EXPIRATION DATE". THESE VEHICLES ARE BEING PLACED BACK INTO CIRCULATION WITHOUT DASH REPLACEMENT TO CONSUMERS WHOM TRUSTED THE TOYOTA NAME AND REPUTATION. I RARELY DRIVE MY VEHICLE WHICH NOW READS APPROX 58,000 AND CAN NOT, WILL NOT SELL TO ANYONE IN GOOD CONSCIOUS. THE EXTENDED WARRANTIES RECEIVED IN THE MAIL ARE NOT HONORED AT FRED ANDERSON TOYOTA!!!!

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE CAMRY STARTED REVVING UP TO 1500 RPM AT STOP LIGHTS OR WHEN PULLING INTO PARKING SPOTS ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS, LOCAL DEALER COULD NOT FIND ISSUE AFTER HAVING CAR FOR A MONTH. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SAVED CODES, I JUST NOTICE THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE DROP WHILE ITS DOING IT SO ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT HAPPENS EVERY OTHER DAY USUALLY WHEN WARM OUT. I AM TOO SCARED TO HAVE MY WIFE DRIVE THE VEHICLE ANYMORE AND CANNOT JUSTIFY SELLING. HOPEFULLY TOYOTA WILL HELP FIGURE THIS OUT. DEALER REPLACED FUEL PUMP BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. ALSO HAS HARD STARTING ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK, WILL ALWAYS START ON THE THIRD TRY IF NOT IMMEDIATELY.

THE AUTO WAS ORIGINALLY KEPT YEAR ROUND IN MINNESOTA. WE HAVE A PLACE IN ALAMO TX 2 YEARS AGO WE DROVE THE CAMRY DOWN TO TEXAS AND FLEW BACK TO MINNESOTA. WE LEFT THE CAR IN A GARAGE. THE FALL OF 2020 IS WHEN WE DISCOVERED WE HAD A STICKY DASH. WE CALLED TOYOTA IN PHARR TX THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS BUT THE TIME HAD EXPIRED FOR US TO GET IT FIXED UNDER THE RECALL ABOUT 2 YEARS AGE. BECAUSE THE CAMRY WAS IN MN FOR THE MAJORITY OF ITS LIFE, THE PROBLEM WASN'T DISCOVERED UNTIL THE FALL OF 2020, 2 YEARS AFTER THE REBATE EXPIRED. THE TECHNITION AT PHARR TOYOTA SAYS THAT HEAT AND HUMIDITY CAUSED THE PROBLEM. THUS THE HEAT AND HUMIDITY IN TEXAS FOR 2 YEARS BROUGHT THIS PROBLEM TO LIGHT 2 YEARS AFTER THE REBATE EXPIRED. THE DASH IS STICKY AND ITS A SHINY REFLECTIVE SURFACE THAT RELECTS LIGHT, HAMPERING VISABILITY WHICH IS DANGEROUS. WE REQUEST TOYOTA FIX OUR DASH.

AS SOON AS I DROVE THIS CAR OFF THE LOT, THE "TIRE BALANCE" LIGHT CAME ON. THE TIRES WERE LOW SO I PUT AIR IN THEM AND THE LIGHT IS STILL ON. THE FRONT BUMPER SKIRT SCRAPES ON EVERY DIP IN THE ROAD IT SEEMS, SOUNDING HORRIBLE. THEN, IT GOT CAUGHT ON A PARKING STOP WHICH LOOSENED THE SKIRT SO IT NOW HANGS EVEN LOWER AND SCRAPES BOTTOM OVER EVERY CRACK IN THE ROAD.
