2016 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

On 01/14/2022, I was in a car accident. I hit a Mitsubishi Outlander Sport head on at 45 mph and my airbags didn’t deploy nor did my seatbelts lock. My car is available for inspection at Classic Collision of Augusta body repair shop. Since my airbags did not deploy and my seatbelt did not lock, I made contact with my steering wheel and my right hand made contact with the dash. My passenger’s airbags did not deploy nor did their seatbelt lock. They made contact with the window, door, and dash of my car. We sustained injuries from the accident. Unknown if problem has been reproduced or confirmed by dealer or service center. Vehicle has been inspected by my auto insurance and the body repair shop, but unknown results. Unknown if any other entities have inspected the vehicle. Yes, a maintenance required message was present for a oil change required. Message appeared when mileage hit 48479 due for oil change per the mileage on the sticker on my windshield.

I was hit by a car that ran a red light going around 45mph. The front passenger side was hit, we were hit hard. No airbags deployed. Other cars airbags did deploy.

I hit a deer that caused all of the airbags to go off. A specific airbag under the steering wheel, a knee bag, caused severe bruising and soft tissue to my calf’s, crippling me for nearly a week. At one point I visited my doctor who confirmed the damage, did a test for roving blood clots, and sent me home to continue to recover. It’s been just over 5 months and I still have visible damage. I would have suffered no injuries if that ‘knee-curtain’ hadn’t been there or if it had not acted like a brick slamming into my legs. I’m concerned for others who may suffer similar unnecessary injuries because of this device.

The contact owns a 2016 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving approximately 65 MPH, the glass sunroof suddenly exploded causing glass pieces to enter the cabin of the vehicle. No injuries were reported. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 127,000.

When accelerating from a stop, the engine revs but very little power and forward motion, then suddenly, the vehicle lurches as though it has gone from neutral to first gear. The danger here is that I am dangerously crawling through the intersection. In addition, while driving around 30 mph, the vehicle will also suddenly lose power as though it shifts from drive to neutral. This problem is being reported to other websites by other people, see carcomplaints.com and repairpal.com

The contact owns a 2016 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while the vehicle was in for routine maintenance, it was discovered that the radiator was leaking antifreeze and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who confirmed the failure was present and replaced the radiator. The cause of the failure was not determined. In addition, a message indicating that cylinder number two had misfired was displayed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 70,000.

FIRST ISSUE, (MINOR) DRIVER SIDE REAR SEATBELT DOES NOT RECOIL CORRECTLY. MUST BE MANUALLY FED IN ORDER TO RESET FOR NEXT USE. SECOND ISSUE, HOOD LATCH DOES NOT RELEASE AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO. YOU MUST HAVE A LONG FLAT HEAD SCREWDRIVER AND MANUALLY LIFT THE HOOK FROM THE HOOD IN ORDER TO RAISE HOOD. APPEARS TO BE A WEAK SPRING ON THE LEVER. NOT SURE WHAT ABOUT THIS CAR MAKES IT EAT TIRES BUT I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW (12 MILES) AND NOW HAVE 98,000 AND I AM GOONG THROUGH TIRES APPROXIMATELY EVERY 10,000 MILES REGARDLESS OF BRAND OR WARRANTY. HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE ALIGNED MULTIPLE TIMES BY MULTIPLE COMPANIES AND STILL NO WEAR PATTERN ON TIRES JUST WORN COMPLETELY SMOOTH. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WITH THE THOUGHT OF PUTTING MY SON IN IT IT TRAVEL TO COLLEGE AND BACK BUT I WILL GET RID OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE I PUT MY CHILD IN IT FULL TIME. HE DOESN'T NEED THE HEADACHE OF CHECKING TIRES AND REPLACING THEM EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. THERE IS NO TIRE SPECIALIST WITH ANY IDEA WHY THE TIRES WOULD BE WEARING THIS BAD ON THIS VEHICLE. MAKES ME WONDER IF OTHER CONSUMERS ARE HAVING TO REPLACE THEIRS AS OFTEN AS I DO. I DO LIVE IN A RURAL AREA BUT ON A PAVED ROAD AND MOST OF MY TRAVEL IS VIA HIGHWAY. DATE PROVIDED IS DATE OF LAST TIRE ROTATION AND REPLACEMENT.

HEADLIGHTS KEEP GOING OFF AND ON, L DON'T DRIVE AT NIGHT MOSTLY TILL RECENTLY, L TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALER. THEY GAVE ME ESTIMATE ABOUT $600.00 TO FIT IT .CLAIMING, I NEEDS REPLACING HEADLIGHT STALK/SWITCH(FOUND HEADLIGHT STOCK/SWITCH OPEN CIRCUT). THE MILEAGE ON MY CAR JUST 21,103. ALSO, THIS MY 3RD TOYOTA, AND USED THEM MORE THAN TEN YEARS WITH THIS PROBLEM, THIS MUST BE MANUFACTURAL DEFAULT, AND FIND OUT THAT, SOME ARE RE-CALL FOR SOME CAMRY 2016. PLEASE. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS

AFTER SITTING ALMOST ALL WINTER, I WENT TO DRIVE THE CAR THREE BLOCKS AWAY. I NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL HAD TOO MUCH PLAY IN IT. WE CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IS A TYPICAL PROBLEM ON THE CAMRY, SO WHY ISNT THERE A RECALL ON IT. MY CAR ONLY HAS 25,543 MILES ON IT, ITS HARDLY CONSIDERED OLD. ON A PAVED ROAD.

THE PANEL THAT CONTROLS THE POWER SEATS BROKE WHEN THE PLASTIC MADE CONTACT WITH THE FRONT OF THE SEAT RAIL WHILE ADJUSTING THE SEAT BACKWARDS FROM THE MOST FORWARD POSITION WHILE THE CAR WAS STOPPED. WHEN DRIVING, THE PANEL THAT BROKE AT THE FRONT ALLOWED THE SEAT TO ENGAGE MOVEMENT WITHOUT DRIVER KNOWLEDGE AND CAUSING DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING. DRIVER PUT DUCT TAPE ON FRONT OF PANEL SO IT WOULD NOT SELF ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING. TOYOTA DEALER ADVISES THIS HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY AND THERE SHOULD BE A TSB ON IT BUT THERE IS NOT. SAYS REPAIR IS $400. SOUNDS LIKE A DEFECT IN DESIGN SINCE I HAVE ONLINE RECORD OF OVER 100 CARS BEING AFFECTED.
