2017 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AT HIGH SPEED ALSO DOES THIS AT LOW SPEED, NEW TIRES BRAKES ALIGNMENT.. THE CAR HAS THROWS ME OUT OF THE LANE CONSISTANTLY AND HAS ALSO THROWN MY FAMILY AND I TOWARDS ONCOMING TRAFFIC UNSAFE TO DRIVE EVEN TO TOYOTA DONT NOW WHAT A WRONG, ALL NEW TIRES RIMS ARE GOOD BRAKES I'M THINKING SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE ELECTRICAL STEERING

I HAVE HAD MY TOYOTA CAMRY APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS AND HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ALMOST SINCE THE BEGINNING THAT THE AUTO DIMMING REAR VIEW MIRROR IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. I HAVE PARTICULAR PROBLEMS AT DUSK AND DAWN. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET THIS RESOLVED WITH TOYOTA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE HOWEVER THEY HAVE BEEN UNRESPONSIVE. I FIND THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE GLARING AND DISTRACTING AND I HAVE TO TIP THE MIRROR DOWN SOMETIMES IN ORDER FOR IT TO BE AS SAFE AS IT SHOULD BE IN MY OPINION. YOUR HELP TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER WOULD BE APPRECIATED!

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY 280 SOUTHBOUND AT ROUGHLY 65 MPH IN FRIDAY EVENING TRAFFIC, THE MOONROOF ON MY 2017 CAMRY EXPLODED SPONTANEOUSLY. IT WAS SO LOUD, I THOUGHT I HAD BEEN SHOT AT. LUCKILY, THE COVER WAS CLOSED OR GLASS WOULD HAVE BEEN EVERYWHERE IN THE CAR'S INTERIOR. THE GLASS HAD EXPLODED OUTWARD AS THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE SLIDING COVER AT ALL. I CALLED MY INSURANCE COMPANY BUT WAS UNABLE TO GET INTO A SHOP AS IT WAS AFTER 5 PM. THE MOONROOF RAILS HAD TO BE REPLACED WHEN I INITIALLY BOUGHT THE CAR LAST YEAR AND SO I THOUGHT THE DEALER WOULD HAVE THE REPAIR UNDER WARRANTEE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ON SATURDAY MORNING AND THEY ADMITTED THAT THEY HAD SEEN THIS PROBLEM BEFORE AND THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTEE. DENNIS MCCONNELL STATED THAT THE CAR WAS UNDER SO MUCH EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL PRESSURE WHEN SEALED UP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THAT THIS FAILURE SOMETIMES HAPPENS ESPECIALLY AS MOONROOF AND SUNROOFS BEING A STANDARD FEATURE ON CARS TODAY. I ENDED UP PAYING $1072 FOR A REPAIR I FEEL MUST BE A STRUCTURAL ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE UNDER RECALL BY TOYOTA. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 25K MILES. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE COST OF THIS REPAIR. I AM NOW AFRAID THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND DRIVE WITH THE MOONROOF OPEN ON THE FREEWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S DOOR FAILED TO OPEN AND LOCK WITH THE REMOTE KEY AND THE BUTTONS ON THE DOOR. THE CONTACT HAD TO OPEN THE DOOR MANUALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CARSON TOYOTA (1333 E 223RD ST, CARSON, CA 90745), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR ALSO FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE PASSENGER DOOR WAS ABLE TO BE REPAIRED, BUT NOT THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO CALL THE DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,406. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

ON NOVEMBER 4TH, 2017, I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHICH WAS DETERMINED BY THE POLICE REPORT TO BE A HIT-AND-RUN ACCIDENT. WE WERE NEVER ABLE TO FIND THE PERSON WHO HIT MY CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING. MY CAR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED AS A RESULT OF SPINNING ACROSS 7 LANES AND HITTING THE SUB-DIVIDERS. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PICTURES OF THE VEHICLE BELOW. UNFORTUNATELY, NONE OF THE 8 AIRBAGS IN THE CAR DEPLOYED. MY FACE WAS SLAMMED VERY HARD AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL AS A RESULT OF THE IMPACT. WE REPORTED THIS TO THE TOYOTA CORPORATION AND THEY SAID THEY NEEDED TO DO AN INVESTIGATION, WHICH TOOK THEM MORE THAN 2 AND A HALF MONTHS, TO COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THE CAR PERFORMED NORMALLY. THEY SENT ME SOME DIAGRAMS AND OTHER INFORMATION WHICH WAS COMPLETELY INCOMPREHENSIBLE. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED DOCUMENTS FROM THE TOYOTA INSPECTION DEPARTMENT. I RECENTLY SENT A LETTER TO TOYOTA CORPORATION REQUIRING A FAIR RESOLUTION TO MY SITUATION. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED COPY OF THAT LETTER. EVERYBODY I SHOW THE CAR TO, INCLUDING BODY SHOPS AND MECHANICS, FELT THAT I WAS VERY LUCKY TO WALK AWAY ALIVE FROM THAT CAR. I AM EXTREMELY SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR, FEARING ANOTHER ACCIDENT WHERE THE OUTCOME MAY NOT BE THE SAME. I TRULY BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP AND TOYOTA CORPORATION IS REFUSING TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND COMPENSATE ME FOR THE REPAIRS, CAR RENTALS, AND OTHER EXPENSES. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL ME AT [XXX], OR EMAIL ME AT [XXX]. I'LL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO ARRANGE FOR AN INDEPENDENT INSPECTION OF THE AIR BAG SYSTEM OF THIS VEHICLE. I SINCERELY APPRECIATE YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ON 3/10/2018 AROUND 7:25PM WHEN I WAS VERY SLOWLY PULLING INTO MY DRIVEWAY MY CAR ACCELERATED SUDDENLY, I WAS NOT PRESSING GAS PEDAL AND I WAS ABLE TO STOP BARELY BEFORE IT HIT MY GARAGE DOOR BY STEPPING VERY HARD ON BRAKES. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR DEADLY ACCIDENT IF THERE WERE ANY CHILDREN AROUND. I THOUGHT TOYOTA HAD ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE BUT APPARENTLY IT HAD NOT. I HAVE A VIDEO RECORDING OF THE EVENT ON MY SECURITY CAMERA.

THERE IS A HESITATION PROBLEM NORMALLY WHEN STARTING FROM A STAND STILL.IT HESITATES FOR JUST 1-2 SECONDS. IT CAN BE DANGEROUS IN TRAFFIC.TOYOTA SERVICE SAYS THEY HAVE NO NOTICE OF A PROBLEM BUT CUSTAMERS ARE SAYING OTHERWISE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE ON A RAINY, COOL DAY WHEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION. THINKING IT WAS A GUNSHOT, I LIKED AROUND THE VEHICLE TO MAKE SURE PASSENGER WAS OK. I HEARD A WINDY SOUND AND OPENED THE SUNROOF COVER PANEL TO SEE THAT MY ENTIRE SUNROOF IS CRACKED TO PIECES. I RUSHED HOME AND ONCE EXITING THE CAR, I NOTICE THE GLASS ON THE SUNROOF LOOKS TO HAVE EXPLODED OUTWARDS. IT IS COMPLETELY DESTROYED WITH NO SIGNS OF IMPACT OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY DRIVING. IT WAS COMPLETELY EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE OUT.

ON THE 2017 TOYOTA CAMRY, I NOTICED THE DOOR JAMB HAS A STICKER THAT READS "CAUTION: LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY REDUCED. MODIFICATIONS TO THIS VEHICLE HAVE REDUCED THE ORIGINAL LOAD CARRYING CAPACITY BY 9 KG OR 21 LBS." I HAVE NOT DONE ANY MODIFICATIONS TO THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS REGARDING THIS ISSUE AND WAS REFERRED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO EXPLANATION WHY THIS STICKER WAS PLACED ON THE DOOR JAMB.
