2012 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

REAR WINDOW DEFROST QUIT WORKING. WHEN TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP THEY SAID GROUND WIRE MELTED OFF GLASS. GROUND WIRE IS HOUSED INSIDE BACK PANEL. THIS IS A SAFETY DEFECT THAT HAS AFFECT MY MIRRORS, AS THEY WILL ALSO NOT DEFROST. IN OHIO WE HAD OUR FIRST REAL SNOW FALL THE WEEK BEFORE AND THAT IS WHEN IT BECAME EVIDENT THAT I HAD NO REAR WINDOW OR SIDE MIRROR DEFROST. I CALLED METRO TOYOTA EXPLAINED PROBLEM AND THAT I BELIEVE IT WAS RELATED TO RECALLS THEY DID IN DECEMBER, BECAUSE PRIOR I HAD NO PROBLEMS. THEY ADVISED I BRING IT IN 1/21. I DID THAT AND THAT IS WHEN THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT RELATED TO RECALLS AND THAT I NEED TO HAVE GLASS REPLACED. CONSIDERING THE PROBLEM OCCURRED IN AND AREA THAT I HAVE NO IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO I BELIEVE THIS HAS TO BE A DEFECT THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE. A REAR DEFROST SYSTEM NOT WORKING IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I BELIEVE TIED TO THE AC ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY THEIR HAVE BEEN NO ACCIDENTS, BUT IF THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR ME I AM SURE THAT IT WILL BE A GROWING CONCERN FOR OTHERS OR IT MAY ALREADY BE AND NOT REPORTED BECAUSE THEY TILL YOU IT'S RARE; BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT'S NOT COVERED, YOU HAVE TO FIX IT! I PLAN TO PURSUE THIS FURTHER

MY 2012 CAMRY HYBIRD WITH LEATHER SEATS. MY PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE WEIGHT OF THE PREVIOUS OCCUPANT, IE, IF OVER 200 LBS AND IT WILL PROBABLY WORK CORRECTLY. BUT IF THE EXITED OCCUPANT WAS LESS THAN 200 LBS, THE AIR BAG WILL ALARM AND MESSAGE FOR THE (FORMER OCCUPANT) PASSENGER TO USE THE SEAT BELT. I'M TRYING TO GET TOYOTA TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BUT THEY WARN ME THAT I MAY HAVE TO PAY TO CORRECT SOMETHING THAT NEVER OCCURED BEFORE THEIR RECALL.

AT 39,000 MILES, MY DRIVER DOOR STOPPED LOCKING/UNLOCKING WITH THE REMOTE. A MONTH LATER THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCK FAILED AND A MONTH LATER THE RIGHT BACK SEAT LOCK FAILED, AND THEN THE LEFT BACK SEAT LOCK FAILED. ALL SECURITY HAS TO BE DONE MANUALLY, USING THE EMERGENCY KEY LOCATED IN THE REMOTE. BATTERIES IN REMOTE CHANGED. DEALER (JOE MYERS) DECLINED REPAIR SINCE OUT OF MILEAGE WARRANTY (BUT NOT YET 3 YEARS OWNED). SEEMS ODD THAT 4 ACTUATORS ALL FAILED SINCE THEY ARE DIFFERENT PARTS. REPAIR ESTIMATE $2,200.

THE CAR SEAT IS PERFECT BUT THE CAR SEAT BASE IS HORRIBLE IT MOVES AROUND EVERY TIME I TURN AND I KNOW IS NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT WITH THE BABY. NOW THE MODEL I HAVE IT'S NOT EVEN LISTED ON THE HIGHWAY SAFETY ..SO I FONT KNOW IF IS ON RECALL OR NOT.

MY CAR IS A 2012 CAMRY, MY PROBLEM IS THE KEYLESS CONTROL WON'T UNLOCK THE DRIVER'S DOOR, IT IS ASHAMED OF TOYOTA NOT REPAIRING MY CAR THAT ONLY HAS 33K MILES AND THEY TOLD ME IS OFF THE REGULAR WARRANTY AND IT'S NOT COVER CAUSE I DIDN'T BUY THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, IT'S THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR STATED A PERSON FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT, PART COST ABOUT $300.00 AND ABOUT $700.00 IF THEY REPAIR IT, I JUST CALL IT THE EASY WAY TO MAKE EXTRA MONEY OFF THE CONSUMER OR ETHER YOU PAY THOUSANDS IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OR THOUSANDS REPLACING CHEAP PARTS AND THAT'S WITH OUT COUNTING THE $150.00 FOR WHAT THEY CALL THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST SO I STARTED RESEARCHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND I ENCOUNTERED THAT IS NOT ONLY THE CAMRY BUT MANY OTHER MODELS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM OF THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR MAL FUNCTION, PLEASE I CALL FOR YOUR ATTENTION IN THIS MATTER, MY CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND ONLY HAS 33K MILES. THANK YOU.
