2014 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

DRIVING AT 50MPH WHEN I HEARD A LOUD "POP" AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A GUNSHOT. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE ONLY TO HEAR A RATTLING NOISE, I SLID BACK THE SUNROOF COVER TO NOTICE THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. I CONTACTED TOYOTA USA TO NO AVAIL, ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY HAVE NO RECALLS. I GOOGLED THE 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY EXPLODING, LOW AND BEHOLD THERE WERE SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS IDENTICAL TO MINE!

DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, SUNROOF WAS CLOSED, AND SHADE WAS ALSO CLOSED. SPEED WAS 45MPH, WHEN A LOUD POP SOUND WAS HEARD, PULLED OVER TO THE BREAK DOWN LANE. SUNROOF HAD A LARGE HOLE IN THE MIDDLE. *BF UPDATED 12/12/2017*JS

THE CRUSE CONTROL ON THIS VEHICLE, AS WELL AS OTHER TOYOTA VEHICLES, DOES NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON HILLS OR INCLINES. WHEN SET AT A SPEED IT WILL CONTINUE TO INCREASE SPEED WHEN GOING DOWN THE HILL. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHICH COULD RESULT IN SOMEONE BEING KILLED. I HAD A COROLLA BEFORE THAT HAD SAME PROBLEM MY BROTHER-IN-LAW HAS A CAMRY THAT ALSO HAS THE SAME ISSUE. I SPOKE TO ONE OF THE SALES PERSONS AT L & S TOYOTA IN BECKLEY, WV. HE SAID ALL TOYOTAS WITH THIS TYPE TRANSMISSION WOULD NOT WORK CORRECTLY ON A HILL. THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME WHEN USING CRUSE ON INTER STATE 64 SPEED LIMIT IS 70 MILES PER HR. VEHICLE WILL BE DOING 80 BEFORE YOU KNOW IT IF YOU DON'T NOTICE IT IT IS HARD TO TELL HOW FAST YOU WOULD BE GOING. ACCIDENTS COULD ALREADY HAPPENED BECAUSE OF THIS. I AM USING A DATE BELOW TO CONTINUE

THERE IS MOLD GROWING IN MY AC/HEATING SYSTEM THAT IS MAKING ME VERY ILL. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND TOYOTA HAS DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT. FOR MORE THAN A YR. NOW I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCE A SERIOUS SINUS INFECTION. AT A RECENT MAINT. INSPECTION THE SERVICE MGR. TOLD ME OF THE PROBLEM. MY CAR IS FAIRLY NEW AND STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $185 TO TREAT THE PROBLEM NOT CORRECT IT! THE SMELL IS CONSTANT.

REAR VIEW MIRROR, NIGHT TIME DRIVING, VIEWING OF VEHICLES APPROACHING FROM REAR IS DISTORTED BY THE BRIGHT IMAGE THAT APPEARS IN THE MIRROR. THIS MAKE DRIVING UNSAFE AS YOUR EYES HAVE TO READJUST TO VIEWING THE ROADWAY AHEAD OF YOU. PLUS IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO JUDGE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN YOUR VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE BEHIND YOURS.

TORQUE CONVERTER SHUDDERS UNDER LIGHT THROTTLE BETWEEN 25-60MPH. REPLACED TORQUE CONVERTER TWICE AND TRANSMISSION ONCE AND VEHICLE STILL SHUDDERS. THIS IS A HORRIBLE SAFETY ISSUE, AS IT WILL SHUDDER ON EXPRESSWAY ON RAMPS INSTEAD OF ACCELERATING AS APPROPRIATE. SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR SOME 12-14 CAMRYS BUT NONE AVAILABLE FOR MY VIN. VEHICLE HAS 13,000 MILES AND PROBLEM STARTED AT 9,000 MILES AND IS GETTING WORSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED SHORTLY AFTERWARDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,300. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WE BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY, AND THERE'S A MOLD PROBLEM IN THE AC. IT SMELLS AWEFUL. THE CHEMICAL SPRAY THEY USE TO FIX IT DOESN'T WORK. WHEN THEY SPRAY IT, IT SMELLS EVEN WORSE FOR SEVERAL DAYS, BUT THEN IT ALWAYS COMES BACK. IT COSTS $100 EACH TREATMENT. SPENT $$ TRYING OTHER PRODUCTS, BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO WORK. VERY COSTLY AND NO REMEDY.

SOMETIMES WHEN PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR WILL NOT GO. PUSHED IT TO THE FLOOR STILL NOTHING TOOK A FEW SECONDS FOR IT TO WORK AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES ALREADY. USUALLY AFTER STOPPING THEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE NOTHING HAPPENS.

BRAKE PROBLEMS AT 38,000 MILES. PER DEALER NEED TO PAY $1500 FOR BRAKE BOOSTER. THIS IS CERTIFIED VEHICLE BY TOYOTA. FACTORY WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36000 AND TOYOTA CERTIFIED WARRANTY EXPIRED A MONTH AGO.
