2011 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE SUN VISOR FELL OWN AND MOMENTARILY OBSTRUCTED HIS VIEW. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER NOR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000.

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR, WHILE POSITIONED IN TRHE RETAINING CLIP, CONTINUES TO ROTATE DOWNWARD, HAMPERING THE DRIVERS VIEW. CONDITION IS WORSENING WITH TIME.

MY YEAR OF TOYOTA AND MAKE HAD A RECALL ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE BALL JOINT AND MY BALL JOINT IS ABOUT READY TO SNAP BECAUSE IT IS A FAULTY FACTORY BALL JOINT. I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE CHECKED OUT BECAUSE I HAVE KIDS AND I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANY OF US. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION. FAMILIES ARE FOREVER!!

VERY LOUD RATTLE WHEN FIRST STARTED ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD. EVEN WHEN IT IS IDLING AFTER RUNNING FOR A WHILE IT STILL HAS A SLIGHT RATTLE JUST A LOT QUIETER.

FRONT RIGHT AXLE BOOT LEAKS GREASE TO THE CONTROL ARM SUSPENSION CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BE UN STABLE/VIBRATION PUTS ME IN FEAR. DEALERSHIP DOES NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I AM VERY SCARED. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION

I NOTICED THE WINDOWS GETTING HAZY WITH A DIFFICULT TO REMOVE "FILM" AND NEVER KNEW WHY UNTIL I DISCOVERED THAT THE DASHBOARD IS BECOMING STICKY AND SHINY. I SUSPECT THE HAZY FILM IS COMING FROM THE DISINTEGRATING DASH BOARD. IT IS ALSO BECOMING SHINY AND THIS IS REFLECTING IN THE WINDSHIELD. SEEMS LIKE A REPEAT OF WHAT HAPPENED TO MY 2007 CAMRY.

MY DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR ALL OF A SUDDEN STARTED TO FALL, AND IT HAS BECOME A OBSTRUCTION WHILE I AM DRIVING. IT WILL NOT STAY UP

WHILE DRIVING, THE DRIVER-SIDE SUN VISOR DROOPED DOWN AND COULD NO LONGER SUPPORT ITSELF. THIS SAFETY ISSUE RESULTED IN A DANGEROUS OBSTRUCTION OF VIEW. I'VE HAD TO REMOVE THE SUN VISOR UNTIL IT CAN BE REPAIRED.

MY DASHBOARD IS BECOMING A GOOEY MESS. THERE IS SOMETHING THAT SEEMS TO BE EATING AWAY THE PLASTIC AND IF YOU TOUCH IT YOU'LL STICK TO IT LEAVING BEHIND AN INDENTION FOR LIFE. THE STICKY FILM HAS CAUSED A GLARE, FROM THE SUN, ONTO THE WINDSHIELD, CAUSING ME TO HIT A CONCRETE BARRICADE THAT WOULD OTHERWISE BE VISIBLE. I HAD A CRASH WITH THIS CONCRETE AND IT TORE OFF PART OF THE FENDER AND HEADLIGHT. I REPLACED THE HEADLIGHT BUT NOT THE FENDER. PLEASE FIX THIS SAFETY HAZARD SO I CAN DRIVE MY GRANDDAUGHTER AROUND SOON.
