2010 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY SLE. THE CONTACT STATES HE JUST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE JANUARY 7TH, 2010. HE IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. HIS VEHICLE WAS HAVING THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM BEFORE THE RECALL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER PERFORMED THE RECALL REPAIR ON HIS VEHICLE BUT HE IS STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. HIS NAVIGATION IS ALSO NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 800.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED AND "REPAIRED" - GAS PEDAL, FLOOR MAT, BRAKE OVERRIDE SYSTEM. PRIOR TO THE RECALL, THE GAS PEDAL WAS SLUGGISH AND I WOULD EXPERIENCE MINI, SUDDEN ACCELERATIONS. THERE HAS BEEN NO IMPROVEMENT SINCE THE REPAIRS (3/2/2010). IN FACT, IT APPEARS TO HAVE BECOME MORE FREQUENT, THE SUDDEN ACCELERATIONS ARE NOT DRAMATIC AND BRAKING DOES TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM. *TR

- UNEVEN AND UNEXPECTED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WITHOUT ANY ADDITIONAL PEDAL PRESSURE - HAD SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHILE MAKING A TURN AND VEHICLE WENT OUT OF CONTROL - EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION WHILE CHANGING LANES ON A FREEWAY - EVEN RECEIVED A TRAFFIC TICKET IN DEC 2009 ONCE FOR FAILING TO YIELD WHEN THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN ON PRESSING ON THE BRAKE - SEVERAL TIMES EXPERIENCED DECELERATION WHILE TRYING TO SPEED UP AND CROSS A SIGNAL LIGHT AND OTHER LOCATIONS - MANY TIMES NOTED SLUGGISH PICKUP WHEN STARTING THE CAR AFTER DRIVING A WHILE AND STOPPING AT INTERSECTION OR DUE TO TRAFFIC AND THEN TRYING TO CONTINUE DRIVING - SOMETIMES I CLEARLY HEAR THE ENGINE THROTTLE BEING DISPROPORTIONATE TO THE GAS PEDAL PRESSING AND A SUDDEN THRUST HAPPENING IN THE VEHICLE - ONCE WHILE STARTING FROM AN INTERSECTION, THE FRONT WHEEL OF THE CAR WENT INTO A SPIN FASTER THAN THE REAR WHEEL CAUSING A SLIPPING MOTION AND THIS WAS ON A CLEAR DAY AND GOOD ROAD CONDITION. - VEHICLE LOSES BALANCE OR SHAKES ON THE SLIGHTEST OF WINDS OR WHEN CHANGING LANES. THIS KIND OF PROBLEMS I NEVER EVEN HAD IN MY OLD SMALLER FORD FOCUS 2002 CAR. - THIS VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED BY TOYOTA RECALL FOR THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL ISSUE BUT THESE PROBLEMS EXIST AS THEY DEFINITELY ARE AN ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT PROBLEM. - THE FLOOR MAT ISSUE OR STICKY PEDAL ISSUE IS NOT MY PROBLEM CLEARLY - TOYOTA SALESMEN KNOWINGLY DID NOT INFORM ME OF THE RECALLS AND FULL EXTENT OF DETAILS OF THE ACCELERATION ISSUE AND AFTER THE SALE WAS CONSUMMATED IN PASSING MENTIONED ME TO KEEP THE FLOOR MAT TIED AN THAT WAS IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2010 CAMRY APPROX 11,000+ MILEAGE. I HAD MY CAR CHECKED FOR THE BRAKES DUE TO THE POPPING SOUND WHEN RELEASE BRAKE PEDAL AND CLICKING AFTER PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE AND THEN DRIVE. TOYOTA RESPONDED: THE SOUND YOU ARE HEARING IS NORMAL OPERATION OF THE BRAKE SYSTEM. WHEN YOU SHIFT FROM REVERSE INTO DRIVE, THE BRAKE CALIPERS MECHANICALLY ADJUST TO THE VEHICLE'S FORWARD MOTION. WHEN THIS ADJUSTMENT HAPPENS, A CLICKING SOUND CAN SOMETIMES BE HEARD. THIS IS A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE AND WILL NOT CAUSE ANY ISSUES TO THE BRAKE SYSTEM. I JUST DROPPED MY CAR OFF AGAIN THIS MORNING TO HAVE REPAIRS DONE FOR THE RECALL AFTER THE FIRST TIME TELLING ME THAT IT WASN'T STICKING; BUT I HEARD THAT IT SHOULD STILL BE REPAIRED. I ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE BRAKES AGAIN AND THE SERVICE REP SAID THE SOUND DOESN'T SOUND NORMAL. I'M EXTREMELY NERVOUS DRIVING THE CAR AND WORRIED ABOUT THE UNKNOWN OF WHAT CAN HAPPEN. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING CARS FOR MANY YEARS AND NEVER HAD THE BRAKES SOUND THIS WAY. *TR

VEHICLE HAS ACCELERATION SURGE, HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES. ALSO AT TIMES, VEHICLE DOES NOT SLOW DONE VERY WELL WHEN COMING TO A STOP, KIND OF LIKE A FAST IDLE. *TR

AFTER TOYOTA PEDAL RECALL COMPLETED, HAD ISSUE 2X WITH ACCELERATOR STICKING AND ACTUALLY CAUSING THE GAS PEDAL TO BE SLUGGISH (WOULD NOT ACCELERATE). *TR
