2024 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

The seat belt on the right side in the second row failed to work. My son-in-law was sitting in that position when I, who was driving, began to proceed through an intersection when I thought the light had turned green. When I realized I was wrong, I slammed on the brakes. His seatbelt did not arrest his forward movement, and he hit the back of the right front passenger seat. Thank goodness I had only been going about 5 mph. Also, the belt did not retract afterwards. For the remaining two blocks of our trip, he had a few feet of slack seat belt in front of him. I have not yet reported the issue to Toyota.

The vehicle allows the engine to be turned off, key removed, while the vehicle is still in drive with no warning lights or sounds. I have tested and the vehicle can roll away. Complained to the toyota dealership and they said the service tech consulted with toyota headquarters and determined no fix was possible because this is normal function of the the vehicle. However, this is a concerning safety hazard because the vehicle can roll. But also, is against the standards. Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 114, Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention, mandates that vehicles with an automatic transmission and a "park" position must have a key-locking system that prevents key removal unless the transmission is locked in "park" or becomes locked in "park" as a direct result of removing the key.

The sunroof on my Camry would not close. I took it to Toyota in were they determined that the cables bound up in the track and the only fix was a new roof assembly. This is a safety risk because if the sunroof cannot close it allows the vehicle to be susceptible to outdoor elements as well as safety issues regarding theft. The problem was seen and confirmed by the Toyota dealership, in where they replaced the roof assembly in its entirety under warranty. There were no warning lights that were triggered by the roof become inoperable. They appeared the day I took it in to get serviced, February 28, 2025. The vehicle has only been inspected by the Toyota Dealership Service Center. We were told that there is no remedy to this issue, and that frequent use will ultimately lead to the roof assembly needing to be replaced again. A cost of $10,000 that was luckily covered under warranty. This is an insane amount of money, and the resolution of "don't use your sunroof" is laughable. When you purchase a car, it is to be able to use it in it's entirety. If I didn't want to use a sunroof, I would have purchase one with one. The dealership said they were not going to submit this as a possible recall.

The dealership and manufacturer will not provide mco on the vehicle they sold me as new. I think they’re title cloning or washing and committing odometer fraud. They don’t submit to the dmv actual details of make model

seatbelt indicator lights and warning sounds malfunction - indicating passengers are in need of buckle even if they are buckled. intermittent functionality. vision at night is incredibly reduced. headlights of other drivers are hazy and auralike - and i often have to put windows down in order to see (WHICH leads to the shaking and vibrating of vehicle in prior complaint|)

i believe my airbags are not going to function properly due to sensors or the airbags themselves. the dashboard warning light "doesn't stay on long enough" to indicate an issue per service tech and wouldn't be assesed. there are no independent locations that can pull any reports with my vin

when in motion, the backseat windows can be lowered and the entire car is subject to the loudest WOOFWOOFWOOF combined with shaking, and excessive vibrating

vehicle does not always respond when the gas pedal is pushed. the engine revs and rpms increase, but gears don't catch. merging onto highways, or making turns into traffic are terrifying as i'm not sure if the car will go.

The Blind Spot Warning and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems went out on my new vehicle at about 3500 miles. There are warnings for both that come up on my dashboard. I brought my vehicle in for its 5000 mile check-up and asked Toyota to check into it. Their tech said the outage was caused by the vehicle being in a collision and they were going to charge me to repair the safety systems. The thing is that this vehicle has not been in a collision. I believe it was a faulty installation of the systems. I am not going to pay for something not caused by me when the vehicle is new and under full warranty. I am making this complaint so that maybe there are other vehicles with the same issue and we can get repairs covered by Toyota under a recall.

I am an Uber driver and most passengers normally sitting in the rear (passenger/right side), have issues opening the door while exiting the vehicle. They generally pull the lever expecting the the door to open, but I always have to tell them to pull the lever while simultaneously pushing the door outwards (which is abnormal). This problem has been ongoing since I purchased this vehicle new in December of 2023. I reported this issue to my local Toyota dealership.
