2011 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION IS UNBELIEVABLE HIGH. EVERY 400 MILES ENGINE OIL VANISHED

THE DASHBOARD OF MY 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SE IS MELTING. IT IS EXTREMELY STICKY. THE GLOSSINESS FROM THE DASHBOARD MELTING IMPAIRS MY VIEW WHEN DRIVING BECAUSE OF THE GLARE IT GIVES FROM THE SUN REFLECTING. I AM SCARED OF MY SAFETY AS I LIVE ON A TROPICAL/HOT ISLAND LOCATION.

SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP WHICH OBSTRUCTS VIEW. THIS HAPPENED OVER TIME AND IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THESE CARS FROM 2007-2011.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS PREMATURELY DETERIORATING. THERE WAS A SOFT AREA CONCERNING THE MATERIAL, WHICH WAS NOT STRUCTURALLY SOUND NEAR THE MIDDLE FRONT PORTION OF THE DASHBOARD. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS A STICKY RESIDUE THAT PROGRESSED AND CAUSED A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY A CLOTH OVER THE AREA BECAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER (TOYOTA OF NORTH MIAMI, 16600 NW 2ND AVE, MIAMI, FL 33169, (305) 974-1103) INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EXCLUDED FROM A MANUFACTURER RECALL AND THAT THE CONTACT WOULD NEED TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED NO REMEDY. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE VEHICLE WOULD BE REPAIRED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING & CRACKING . IT IS STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND IT\'S FALLING APART THE GLARE FROM THE MELTING DASH IS ALSO AN ISSUE . I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE VANITY MIRROR IT IS BROKE AND WON\'T STAY UP . I HAD THE SAME EXACT ISSUES WITH MY 2007 CAMRY AND TOYOTA FIXED THE DASH BUT THEY TOLD ME TO GO BUY A NEW DASHBOARD AND PAY FOR IT MYSELF FOR MY 2011 THEY WILL NOT EXCEPT BLAME AND THEY WILL NOT HELP WITH THE ISSUES THEY PRETTY MUCH TOLD ME TOUGH LUCK . I AM VERY UPSET WITH THE CONDITION OF MY DASHBOARD AND I AM VERY UPSET AT TOYOTAS RESPONSE TO MY ISSUE .

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR HAS FAILED AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP.POSITION THE INSIDE PLASTI. THE HOLDS THE VISOR ARM HAS SEPARATED ALLOWING THE ENTIRE ARM TO ROTATE FEELY. THIS BLOCKS MY VISION OF THE ROAD AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE SUN VISORS FAIL TO STOW PROPERLY AND HAVE DEPLOYED UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS TO THE POINT IT SEEMED SAFER TO REMOVE THE VISORS. THE ADVERSE AFFECT IS NOW BEING BLINDED BY THE SUN WHILE DRIVING.

I BOUGHT MY CAR IN 11/2010. ABOUT 3 YEARS LATER, THE DASHBOARD BECAME STICKY. I THOUGHT IF WAS BECAUSE OF THE HEAT. AS TIME PASSED IT GOT WORSE AND IT'S CAUSING A VERY BAD GLARE. I WAS SEARCHING THE WEB TO SEE WHAT CAUSES THIS AND CAME ACROSS AN ACTION SUIT AGAINST TOYOTA FOR THIS PROBLEM. I ALSO HAD THE PROBLEM WITH MY SUN VISORS CONTINUOUSLY DROPPING. THIS TOO WAS A PROBLEM MANY OTHERS WERE HAVING WITH THIS MODEL. I CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO AND THEY STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO SINCE MY VIN # WAS NOT ON THE "LIST". I CALLED THE CORPORATE OFFICE AND THEY TO SAID THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT MYSELF AND "IF IN THE FUTURE, THEY RECEIVE A CHANGE, THEY WILL REIMBURSE ME. I FIND THIS DISTURBING THAT SINCE MY CAR WAS NOT ON THE "LIST" YET I'M HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS ARE HAVING, I DO NOT QUALIFY TO GET MY CAR FIXED. I WANTED TO PASS THE CAR DOWN TO MY SON, BUT BEFORE I DO, I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PROBLEMS I'M HAVING WHICH WILL COST OVER 900.00. I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED AND WILL NOT BE BUYING MY FUTURE CAR FROM TOYOTA.

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR BECAME LOOSE AND WILL NOT STAY UP. FELL DOWN INTO VIEW WHEN DRIVING. VISOR FINALLY FELL OFF THE SWING ARM AND IT IS DUE TO A CRACKED/SEPARATED PLASTIC HOUSING WITHIN THE VISOR THAT THE SWING ARM INSERTS INTO.

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR DROPS DOWN WHEN AND WILL NOT STAY UP. THE TOYOTA EXTENDED WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER MY VIN #. THIS IS A PART DEFECT AND HAS MANY COMPLAINTS.
