2015 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

MY CAR WILL START PULLING TO THE RIGHT, AFTER I PARK IT , IT WILL START PULLING TO THE LEFT AND I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER THE STEERING. MY CAR HAS A LOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, DRIVING DOWN HWY 249 I COULD ONLY DRIVE 45 MILES A HOUR WITH MY EMERGENCY FLASHER ON. I AM 71 YES OLD AND I HAVE TO USE MY CAR FOR WORK.

STEERING PROBLEM- 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY STEERING WHEEL PULLS TO THE RIGHT AT LOW SPEEDS, BUT ALIGN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. PARKED, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART ENGINE AND START DRIVING, THE STEERING PROBLEM GOES AWAY AND THE WHEEL IS PERFECTLY ALIGNED AT LOW AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS, TURN THE CAR ON LATER AND THE STEERING WHEEL PULLS TO THE RIGHT AGAIN WHILE DRIVING, THIS SYMPTOM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR APPROX. 3 DAYS. LOOKED UP HELP ONLINE AND FOUND 'ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU)' AND 'STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM' DAMAGES DURING MANUFACTURE PROCESS OR MANUFACTURE PART DEFECT. THIS SPORADIC STEERING PROBLEM STARTED AT APPROXIMATELY 46,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, WHICH IS ONLY USE TO GO TO WORK AND HOME AND DRIVEN ON AVG 20 MILES DAILY.

I KEEP HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY CV AXLE. IT HAS BEEN REPLACED 3 TIMES NOW AND THE LAST TIME WAS WITH TOYOTA. I AM STILL HEARING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN TURNING.

CLAPPING OR TAPPING NOISE SOUNDS LIKE LIFTER OR VALVE MAKING NOISE AT CERTAIN TIMES. IF YOU TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND TURN THE ENGINE BACK ON IT WILL MAKE THE NOISE EVEN PRESS THE GAS PEDAL IT GETS A LOUDER CLAPPING. I GET MY EVERY OIL CHANGE AT 5,000 MILES. MY VEHICLE SHOULDN'T BE MAKING THIS NOISE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER ASSIST FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED TOYOTA CASE NUMBER: 1908190590. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V144000 (STEERING). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 54,000.

STEERING INTERMITTENTLY PULLS THE DRIVING WHEEL TO THE LEFT. SOMETIMES DOES AND OTHERS NO.

WHILE PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 0-5 MPH I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL TO PARK IN FRONT OF MY GARAGE DOOR/BRICK WALL AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP. THE PEDAL WENT DIRECTLY TO THE FLOOR AND THE CAR ACCELERATED FORWARD INTO THE BRICK WALL. AFTER HITTING THE BRICK WALL, THE CAR BOUNCED BACK OFF THE WALL A FEW INCHES. ALL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND I BECAME HYSTERICAL. THE FUMES FROM THE AIR BAGS WERE THROUGHOUT THE CAR. I WAS SCREAMING AND CRYING AT THE SAME TIME. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND FOUND MY CELL PHONE ON THE FLOOR WHICH FELL FROM MY PURSE AND CALLED 911. I WAS UNABLE TO REACH THE DOOR HANDLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE SUN ROOF AND STARTED SCREAMING FOR HELP. AFTER A FEW MINUTES MY NEIGHBOR CAME RUNNING AND OPENED THE DRIVER'S DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE AND I SLID OUT UNDER THE AIRBAG AND DROPPED TO THE CEMENT ON MY BEHIND. *DT *TR

MY CAR WAS DRIVING AND MY LIGHTS WENT CRAZY AND WHEELS LOCKED UP I CHANGED BATTERY CHANGED ALTERNATOR AND SOMETHING STILL DRAINING BATTERY AND IT'S THE ECU FOR MY POWER STEERING

I HAVE 52,000 MILES ON MY CAR. I NEVER HAD PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING UNTIL RECENTLY. WHILE DRIVING AT SPEEDS ANYWHERE FROM 5-55 MY CAR WILL PULL HARD TO THE LEFT. WHEN I PULL OVER AND TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT, IT STOPS BUT AFTER A LITTLE WHILE OF DRIVING AGAIN IT WILL PULL HARD TO THE RIGHT. IT'S ALWAYS AT RANDOM TIMES AND I NEVER KNOW WHICH WAY IT WILL PULL AND IT DOESN'T PULL AT ALL TIMES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO ADDRESS.

VEHICLE HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PUSHED :WHEN STARTING FROM ZERO SPEED OR ACCELERATING AT CRUISING SPEED THE CAR OFTEN HESITATES MORE OFTEN THEN NOT THIS IS A ROAD HAZORD AND WORSE YET FOR ME THE VEHICLE NEVER DRIVES THE SAME. IT IS REALLY FRUSTRATING KNOWING THE MONEY I SPENT AND THE MONEY I WILL LOOSE ON TRADE DUE TO A VEHICLES PERFORMANCE THAT IS DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO FIX THE ISSUE. MY EXPERIENCE IS IT HAS NO BEARING ON VEHICLE SPEED WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS ITS RANDOM AND DIFFICULT TOTO PREDICT FOR ME ITS THE WORST DURING RUSH HOUR ON THE FREEWAY I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD LOOK FORWARD OR BEHIND TO SEE WHICH CAR COULD BECOME VICTOM OF THE ACCELERATION OR HESITATION.
