I PURCHASED A 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY SE IN NOVEMBER 2014. I WAS DRIVING ON THE FLORIDA TURNPIKE GOING ABOUT 60 MILES PER HOUR AND THE BACK LEFT TIRE BLOWOUT. THE SIDE OF MY CAR IS DAMAGED AND THE LOWER PANEL BELOW THE DOORS ALSO THE FRONT BUMPER. I CONTACTED TOYOTA AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRE IS NOT COVERED BY THEM EVEN AND THE CAR IS FULLY COVERED (WOW). THE MANAGER AT TOYOTA TOLD ME TO CONTACT THE TIRE DEALER AND DISCUSS THE PROBLEM. THIS IS MY 6 TOYOTA SINCE 1984 AND REALLY THOUGHT TOYOTA WAS A GREAT COMPANY. TOYOTA MOTOR SALES U.S.A,INC. DEPT. WC 11 19001 S. WESTERN AVE. TORRANCE, CA 905501 800-331-4331 TOYOTA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE TO REPAIRED MY CAR IN TOTAL '. I CALLED THE TIRE MANUFACTURE (BRIDGESTONE RETAIL OPERATIONS, LLC - 800 847 3272) AND TOLD THEM OF THE SITUATION. THE REPRESENTATIVE TOOK ALL THE DETAILS AND PROVIDED ME WITH A CASE NUMBER (727790) AND TOLD ME TO PROVIDE THEM WITH 2 WRITTEN ESTIMATES AND SHIP THE DAMAGED TIRE TO THEM. AFTER A WEEK, I SHIPPED THE DAMAGED TIRE AND THE WRITTEN ESTIMATES TO BRIDGESTONE. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK, I RECEIVED A LETTER IN THE MAIL STATED THAT MY CLAIM HAS BEEN DENY, DUE TO LOW AIR IN THE TIRE. THIS IS NOT TRUE BECAUSE I HAD SUFFICIENT AIR IN THE TIRE AND THESE TIRES ARE LONG LASTING THEY TOLD ME. I WENT ON THE WEB SITE HTTP://WWW.NITROFILL.COM/ AND EVEN IF THE TIRE HAS LOW AIR IT SHOULD NOT HAVE BLOWOUT. I CONTACTED (1-877-246-3455) THE NITRO FILL AND THEY TOLD ME THAT BRIDGESTONE IS A "JOKE". TOYOTA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR OF MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY ARE THE ONE WHO SELECTED BRIDGESTONE FOR TIRE SERVICE. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP ON SOLVING THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE THE CAR IS NEW AND FULLY UNDER WARRANTY. I REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AT THIS POINT SO I AM COUNTING ON YOUR HELP ... THANKS

A RABBIT CHOMPED ON THE LOWER WIRING HARNESS RENDERING THE CAR DISABLED DUE TO THE WIRING BEING MADE OUT OF AN "ORGANIC" COMPOUND IN KEEPING WITH ITS "GREEN" PHILOSOPHY. I WAS TOLD BY THE MECHANIC IT IS MADE FROM EITHER A PEANUT OIL OR SIMILAR INGREDIENT THAT ATTRACTS RODENTS. HE ALSO WENT ON TO SAY THAT THE WIRING COVERING CAUSES ISSUES ON MANY OF THE TOYOTA'S DUE TO RODENTS EATING THE WIRING AND IS IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. MY CAR WAS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY PRIOR TO ANY ISSUES AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. THIS WILL COST $1900 TO REPAIR MY BRAND NEW CAR.

THE CAR COMPUTER REFUSES TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY WHEN NEEDED. WHEN PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR TO CROSS BUSY INTERSECTION OR FROM STOP LIGHT, THE EXHIBITED 3-5 SECONDS OF DELAY, IT REFUSE TO PICKUP SPEED WHICH COULD CAUSE A DEADLY ACCIDENT! TOYOTA MUST RECALL THE CARS BACK AND FIX THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE DIED AGAIN ON THE ROAD!!!

AT TIMES AT THE FIRST START-UP IN THE MORNING, AND DURING THE DAY FOLLOWING THE VEHICLE SITTING FOR COUPLE HOURS (SOME TIMES LESS AND AT OTHER TIMES LONGER PERIODS), THE ENGINE PRODUCES A RATTLING OR TAPPING NOISE FOR TWO OR THREE SECONDS THEN IT GOES AWAY. OFTEN, AFTER AN IMMEDIATE SHUT-OFF AND RESTART, THE ENGINE PRODUCES THE SAME NOISE FOR COUPLE SECONDS THEN IT STOPS. IT'S EASY TO MISS THE NOISE IF THE RADIO IS ON OR THE SURROUNDING IS NOISY.
