sunroof and its now at the shop for repair. My safety was put at risk if because it sound as a gunshot and could have cause me to swerve into another line. If the sunroof had been open the glass could of cut me. unknown if the problem has been reproduced or confirmed. it has been inspected by the shop that's doing the repair. No warnings at all. I was traveling down the road and heard something that sounded like a gun shot. It then sounded like a window was open. Once I got home I inspected my car and pulled back the shade and realize the sunroof was shattered in pieces. If I had my sunroof open the glass could of fell in on me. I called my insurance company and they didn't inspected but ordered parts to fix it. They originally told me it would be a 0 dollar deductible. Now the car is in the shop to be repaired, I'm told they found other things and I would have to pay a $500 deductible now.

AIR BAGS, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I'm in love with Toyota. In Brazil I always had cars of this brand, but newer in manufacture. I recently purchased a 2007 Toyota Camry from a third party and at the time of purchase I did not realize the size of the problem. The car as always is excellent. But to my surprise your panel is simply melting. Just tap it and it dissolves in your hand. As it is sticky and sticky in the hot sun, its reflection almost completely covers the front windshield. I need to drive with dark glasses to get visibility. When researching the subject, I realized that this problem is widespread. That all Camry's have this defect. Imagine the danger of those countless drivers driving in poor visibility. It really is a disappointment with Toyota, and I hope they have a solution not only for me, but for everyone, as I consider this a matter of public safety.

TIRES
The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Camry equipped with Starfire Tires, Tire Line: Solarus A/S, Tire Size: 215/60/R16, DOT Number: (N/A). The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle wobbled due to all four tires losing air. The contact purchased a compressor to constantly add air to all four tires. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who diagnosed that there was a nail in the front driver's side tire, and the mechanic patched the front driver's side tire. The vehicle was then taken to a Goodyear service center, and it was determined that the front driver's side tire had a cut in the tread. The technician replaced the front driver's side tire and adjusted the air pressure in all four tires; however, the failure recurred with all four tires losing air. The tires were not replaced. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 36,800.

My instrument panel went black. I can no longer tell how fast I'm going I can no longer tell if my safety features are on or off. I can no longer see if my tire pressure is good or bad. I've checked the fuses and there is no blown fuse. Also my odometer reading is on this screen and I'm not able to see it.

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ENGINE
I had no problems with my 2015 Toyota Camry SE that does not even have 90,000 miles on it, and then I started experiencing a shutter when driving between 25 and 50mph. It feels like you are driving over rumble sticks in the roadway, or an abnormal shaking. There is no warning light illuminated on my dashboard ex: engine light. If I take my foot of the accelerator pedal the shutter/shaking would stop or if I pushed on the accelerator to go faster, it will come out of the shutter/shaking also. While I was getting an oil change at the Toyota dealership, I spoke with the Toyota customer service representative about the closed recall (T-SB-0312-17) for this issue on 2012-2014 Toyota Camry's while doing research on this issue and I was told that Toyota has no plans on doing another recall because they have fixed the problem and I would have to have the car fixed myself which could cost upwards of $3,000.00 out of pocket. Why should a customer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have their car diagnosed for a known problem based on internet forums and other Toyota complaints. The engine light is not on, so a code may not even show up. I cannot afford to pay that, and Toyota should stand by their vehicles, stop giving customers the run around and do another recall as this is a big safety issue of faulty parts which can cause a major accident if the car loses power and stalls.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
My navigation system is stuck in a reboot mode where is flashes a very bright white screen. I was driving at night and the screen is so bright, and there’s no way to turn it off or adjust the brightness. It was bright that I could not see the road and hit the ditch when I went to turn onto my road. Its very hard to drive at night with this bright light flashing from the entire radio screen it makes it extremely dangerous to be out after dark.

SEAT BELTS
The passenger side backseat belt locked, and we could not get the seatbelt to released. My 4 year old became tangled in the seatbelt, and we could not get the seatbelt to release. It only kept becoming tighter around his stomach area. Seatbelt had to be cut with scissors to become released/untangled. I was informed by Carlock Toyota in Tupelo, Mississippi that a safety feature was not in place to release the seatbelt if one became caught in it and it would not release. I was told I would have had to have my child cut out of the seatbelt due to the Toyota camry seatbelt not releasing.

POWER TRAIN
The torque converted on the 2015 Camry is failing. This was a known defect on the 2012-2014 models. Toyota offered a recall on those models but not the 2015. Many other owners are also reporting a faulty torque converter on their cars. The is the exact same issue as the previous model year but Toyota is not covering the defect. This poses a major safety risk as acceleration is inconsistent and compromised while driving the vehicle. Eventually this will lead to complete transmission failure while driving the vehicle which again poses a major safety risk.
