To the esteemed officials of the US Department of Transportation, My name is [XXX] and I am the owner of a 2015 Toyota Camry SE. I recently had my car repaired for a completely separate issue and while I addressed a problem with the steering, my mechanic made me aware of a 2015 recall for the Electrical Power Steering electronic control unit. I was provided with information regarding it. While my VIN number was not listed as an automobile affected by this issue, it is evident that this is what's occurring. My days have been spent on the phone with the manufacturer and was told numerous times that my VIN number was not identified in said recall. As a result, I was told not to drive my car due to it being a safety concern, meaning I could lose overall control of the car, and I am now lacking transportation. Please advise on how to proceed, I would like to get this matter resolved in a reasonable time. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

BRAKE WARNING LIGHT STAYED LIT AFTER STARTING VEHICLE. BRAKES WERE NOT AS EFFECTIVE IN STOPPING VEHICLE. TOOK VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE CHECK. DEALER STATES THE BRAKE BOOSTER HAS TO BE REPLACED AND THE ECU NEEDS TO BE REFLASHED. ERROR CODE C1141. WOULD NOT EXPECT THE BRAKE BOOSTER TO HAVE THIS SHORT OF A LIFE.

BRAKE BOOSTER - MY VEHICLE HAS 43,000 FOR 2015. ALL SERVICES ON MY VEHICLE HAVE BEEN WITH THE DEALER. BLAKE FLUID IS LEAKING INTO THE BRAKE BOOSTER CAUSING THE BRAKE MAINTENANCE LIGHT TO COM ON. THE BRAKE BOOSTER IS NORMALLY NOT A PART THAT SHOULD FAIL SO SOON.

BRAKE SYSTEM MAKES A LOUD 'CLACK' NOISE WHEN VEHICLE IS MOVING IN REVERSE AND DRIVER APPLY THE SERVICE BRAKES PEDAL. TOYOTA DEALER STATED THAT THIS NOISE IS NORMAL. THEY ARE NOT TRYING TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THIS SITUATION HAPPENS EVERY DAY INDEPENDENTLY OF HOW MANY HOURS OR DAYS VEHICLE BEING PARKED. NOISE CAN BE REPRODUCED ON PRIVATE GARAGE, PUBLIC ROAD AND OR HIGHWAY. THAT DISGUSTING NOISE IS ALWAYS THERE. TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING ANY ACTION ABOUT THIS... MAYBE THEY ARE WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO GET HURT OR KILL DUE TO DEFECTIVE BRAKE SYSTEM.

The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Camry. The contact stated while driving 20-30 MPH and depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle started shuddering and there was a 20-30 seconds lag in acceleration, which required the contact to release and to depress the accelerator pedal until the vehicle responded as needed. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the torque converter had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at undisclosed speeds, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was approximately 64,000.
May 07, 2024
The torque converted on the 2015 Camry is failing. This was a known defect on the 2012-2014 models. Toyota offered a recall on those models but not the 2015. Many other owners are also reporting a faulty torque converter on their cars. The is the exact same issue as the previous model year but Toyota is not covering the defect. This poses a major safety risk as acceleration is inconsistent and compromised while driving the vehicle. Eventually this will lead to complete transmission failure while driving the vehicle which again poses a major safety risk.

My 2015 Toyota Camry has been experiencing a shudder between the speeds of 30-40 MPH. I am now experiencing it between 50-60 MPR and it's a heavier shudder. I am learning from research that is the torque converter which was covered under warranty for Camrys made in 2012 to 2014 but NOT 2015. My car was purchased in January of 2015 so I consider this made under that recall time frame. My vehicle is starting to get worse and I don't know what will happen when it gets even worse. I have had my vehicle looked at by two mechanics who have told me this is what it is and to call Toyota about it. I am in that process right now. No warning lights have come on for this issue. This is very concerning and I am super disappointed so far seeing that Toyota has not warrantied the 2015 model year. I love my Camry minus this HUGE problem.
Jan 08, 2023
THE VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING A TORQUE CONVERTER SHUDDER BETWEEN 20-50 MPH, SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE 2012-2014 CAMRY RECALL.

The steering wheel clockspring ribbon was worn down in the middle, resulting in an open circuit of the SRS. The wear is between the ribbon and inside wall of the container that houses the ribbon. It appears to be a designing flaw or manufacturing defect. The wear was discovered by tearing down the clockspring unit. Airbag light on the dashboard was lit in November 2023. Replaced the clockspring unit on 2/17/2024. Without fixing the problem, the airbag on the steering wheel does not function when needed.

The car burns oil excessively, I bought this car 11/07/2022 every week to 2 weeks I have to put 2-2 1/2 quarts of oil in. There is nothing wet under the car no oil stains anywhere so oil is not leaking. I spend so much money on oil it's not normal.

Dec 20, 2018
THE CAR CLOCK HAS BEEN RUNNING FAST (4-5 MINUTES AFTER SIX MONTHS) STARTING FROM THE DATE PURCHASED (MAY 2015). MORE CRITICALLY, THE CLOCK STARTED TO SUDDEN CHANGE THE TIME AFTER STARTING THE CAR ENGINE. THE CLOCK SUDDEN CHANGE ISSUES HAVE HAPPENED THREE TIMES RECENTLY (FIRST ONE IN SEPTEMBER 2017, SECOND ONE IN JANUARY 2018, AND THIRD ONE IN APRIL 2018). ALTHOUGH IT REFLECTS ON CLOCK CHANGING BUT IT IS NOT SURE IF THE PROBLEM COULD BE EVEN MORE SERIOUS (LIKE ENGINE....). I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA DEALER AND TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE REGARDING THE ISSUES IN JANUARY 2018 AND APRIL 2018. HOWEVER, THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM BUT REFUSED TO TAKE CARE OF ISSUES. PLEASE HELP US TO MAKE THE MANUFACTURER TO TAKE UP THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. THANKS.

IN 2015, THE TOYOTA CAMRY SE SUDDENLY DID NOT START, SO I THOUGHT IT WAS A BATTERY PROBLEM AND CHANGED IT, BUT THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AND IT WAS SENT TO THE REPAIR SHOP FOR INSPECTION AND THE STARTING FUSE DISAPPEARED. THEN, BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURRED, THE RIGHT DOOR GLASS OPEN SWEETIE DID NOT WORK AMONG THE SWITCHES ON THE DRIVER SIDE.
Aug 28, 2020
I PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 2017, AFTER ABOUT 6 MONTHS OR MORE I NOTICED A KNOCKING NOISE WHEN I TURNED INTO MY DRIVEWAY OR MADE A RIGHT TURN. I TOOK IT TO VANDERGRIFF TOYOTA AND AFTER TAKING IT BACK A FEW TIMES, ONE OF THE TECHNICIAN HEARD THE KNOCKING SOUND AND SAID IT WAS THE SUNROOF, I HADN'T OPENED THE SUNROOF SINCE THE GUY AT VANDERGRIFF HONDA SOLD ME THE CAR. I CALLED THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER, INFORMED THE YOUNG MAN I HAD GOOGLED SUNROOF RECALL AND SAW THAT IT INCLUDED 2014 AND SOME 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY'S, I GAVE HIM MY VIN NUMBER AND HE SAID THIS PARTICULAR CAR VIN NUMBER WAS NOT LISTED AND THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO FOR ME. I ASKED TO SPEAKE TO HIS SUPERVISOR, HE PUT ME ON HOLD, CAME BACK AND STATED AGAIN THERE NOTHING TOYOTA CAN DO. I DON'T HAVE $2500 DOLLARS OR MORE TO FIX A FACTORY DEFECT AND WOULD THINK TOYOTA WOULD STEP UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN JANUARY 2017, AND THE PROBLEM BEGAN AROUND JUNE 2017. I HOPE YOU CAN FIND THAT RECALL AND FIX MY CAR.

THE "SMART KEY" IGNITION SYSTEM SOMETIMES FAILS TO WORK, AT IRREGULAR INTERVALS. DEALER SERVICE PEOPLE SAY THE WAY TO CORRECT THE FAILURE IS TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE SYSTEM THEN REBOOTS AND USUALLY WORKS OK THEREAFTER -- USUALLY. TODAY THE CAR WAS PARKED, SHE ENTERED, AND THE KEY FOB FAILED TO WORK. SHE HAD TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE DRIVER'S DOOR 4 TIMES BEFORE IT DID WORK. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM WHEN SHE IS FREQUENTLY THE LAST PERSON OUT OF THE LOT AT WORK, AND SHE MUST OPEN AND CLOSE HER DOOR BEFORE THE CAR WILL START AND THE PHONE BLUE-TOOTH WILL WORK. THE DEALER PLEADS IGNORANCE EVEN THOUGH HIS SERVICE PEOPLE ARE FAMILIAR WITH THIS. CAR IS PARKED IN MODERN GARAGE OR OUTDOORS.

TOOK CAR TO TOYOTA SERVICE STATION FOR MAINTENANCE. SERVICE STATION HAD A HARD TIME GETTING HOOD OPENED. THE HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY WAS RUSTED. I WAS RECOMMENDED TO BUY A NEW ONE, ALSO ADVISED THAT NEXT TIME TO GET IT OPENED IT MAY HAVE TO BE BROKEN OFF. IT MAY BE POSSIBLE THAT THE HOOD MAY GET STUCK IN THE OPENED POSITION, OR COME OPENED. I DID NOT PURCHASE IT. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM IS A VEHICLE DEFECT THAT SHOULD NOT OCCUR AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED.

KNOCKING OCCURS IN ROOF/SUNROOF STRUCTURE WHEN DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS ON ROADS WITH MINOR BUMPS, AND WHEN DRIVING OVER ALL SPEED BUMPS (MOVING SLOWLY OR QUICKLY OVER THEM). SOUNDS LIKE PARTS OF ROOF STRUCTURE ARE HITTING ONE ANOTHER. AFTER CONDUCTING ONLINE RESEARCH, ISSUE SEEMS TO BE COMMON AMONG OTHER OWNERS. 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY XSE V6.

I HAD A BAD ACCIDENT LAST WEEK , MY CAR SLIPPED ON THE ROAD BECAUSE OF THE WEATHER AND I COULDN'T CONTROL IT AND I HIT THE OTHER CAR WAS COMING ON THE OTHER LANE AND WE BOTH HIT THE METAL FENCE ON THE ROAD AND MY AIR BAGS DID NOT BLOW UP. AND THAT HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY.

MANY AREAS HAVE PAINT PERINING AWAY, SUCH AS THE TRUNK AND AREAS OF THE DOORS.
May 12, 2019
WHEN FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NOTICED A SOUND COMING FROM THE RIGHT REAR AREA WHEN TURNING INTO A DRIVEWAY OR DRIVING ON A BUMPY ROAD OR SPEED BUMP AND THOUGHT IT WOULD GO AWAY. BUT RECENTLY NOTICED THAT THE SOUND HAS BECOME LOUDER SO BROUGHT IT INTO TOSERVCO TOYOTA HONOLULU ON12/5/18. THEY DETERMINED THAT THE SOUND WAS FROM THE MOONROOF. IT HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT A CERTAIN ANGLE AND GO OVER A BUMP OR ROUGH ROAD. APPARENTLY FROM MY UNDERSTANDING, THE ROOF IS NOT PROPERLY REINFORCED IN THE FRAME. SO IT'S BASICALLY ' SHIFTING' AND THUS THE SOUND IS HEARD. REPAIRING IT IS VERY EXPENSIVE BECAUSE THE FACTORY WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. IT ALSO INVOLVES REMOVING THE HEADLINER AND DOORS. AFTER DOING ALL OF THIS I'M WORRIED THAT MY CAR WILL NEVER BE THE SAME. WHAT IF SOMETHING ELSE GOES WRONG? I DON'T THINK IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BUT IF OTHER VEHICLES LIKE MINE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM SHOULDN'T IT BE CONSIDERED A MANUCTURER'S DEFECT AND SHOULDN'T BE IGNORED?

I am writing to report a serious incident involving my 2015 Toyota Camry LE (VIN: [XXX] ), which I believe is connected to a potential defect or recall issue. On [XXX], I was involved in a car crash that resulted in my vehicle being totaled. The circumstances of the crash strongly suggest that it was caused or exacerbated by issue sudden loss of power steering assistance The details of the crash are as follows: Date/Time: [XXX] Location: [XXX] Fall River While driving at low speeds, I experienced a sudden loss of power steering, making it difficult to control the vehicle and avoid a collision.

VEHICLE HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS PUSHED :WHEN STARTING FROM ZERO SPEED OR ACCELERATING AT CRUISING SPEED THE CAR OFTEN HESITATES MORE OFTEN THEN NOT THIS IS A ROAD HAZORD AND WORSE YET FOR ME THE VEHICLE NEVER DRIVES THE SAME. IT IS REALLY FRUSTRATING KNOWING THE MONEY I SPENT AND THE MONEY I WILL LOOSE ON TRADE DUE TO A VEHICLES PERFORMANCE THAT IS DOCUMENTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET AND NOTHING IS BEING DONE TO FIX THE ISSUE. MY EXPERIENCE IS IT HAS NO BEARING ON VEHICLE SPEED WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURS ITS RANDOM AND DIFFICULT TOTO PREDICT FOR ME ITS THE WORST DURING RUSH HOUR ON THE FREEWAY I DON'T KNOW IF I SHOULD LOOK FORWARD OR BEHIND TO SEE WHICH CAR COULD BECOME VICTOM OF THE ACCELERATION OR HESITATION.

THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS JULY 2017. I WAS IN THE CITY SLOWED DOWN AND GOT IN WAY OF ON COMING TRAFFIC TURN LEFT ONTO ANOTHER STREET THE CAR JUST STALLED AND SAT THERE. NO POWER AT ALL. I TRIED PRESSING THE GAS, NOTHING, AFTER SEVERAL SECONDS IT FINALLY MOVED ACROSS WITH MOMENTS TO SPARE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IT HAS COME TO THE POINT WHERE I DON'T MOVE ACROSS TO TURN UNLESS THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO TRAFFIC. THIS LOSS OF POWER SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE WHERE I NOW GET THIS SAME PROBLEM WHEN JUST DRIVING DOWN A STREET. THE FIRST TIME I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA I TOLD THEM I WANTED TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, ALL THEY DID WAS TOOK IT FOR A TEST DRIVE AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH IT.THE NEXT TIME I MADE AND APPOINTMENT TO GET IT SERVICED I ASKED THEM AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY COMPLETELY IGNORED ME AND DID NOTHING AT ALL. THERE IS A NOTATION THAT I WANTED IT CHECKED FOR THE LOSS OF POWER BUT NOTHING WAS NOTATED AS BEING DONE. THIS IS GETTING SO DANGEROUS, I HATE TO DRIVE IT. THE CAR HAS JUST UNDER 22000 MILES.

VERY DIFFICULT TO FILL UP THE GAS TANK, CUTS OFF EVERY SECOND AND AS IT CUTS OFF SPLASHES GASOLINE. NOT ONLY IT IS DIFFICULT TO USE THE CAR, IT IS DANGEROUS. I NOTICED THE FLAP OR THE COVER TO GAS CAP AREA NOT SEALED WELL AND WHEN DRIVING SO MUCH DUST SUCKS IN AND ACCUMULATE ON AND AROUND THE GAS CAP AREA. EVERY TWO THREE MONTHS I KEPT CLEANING AND VACUUMING THE GAS CAP AREA. THE PROBLEM STARTED GRADUALLY AND EVENTUALLY BECAME IMPOSSIBLE TO FILL UP THE TANK, CONSTANTLY CUTTING OFF AND SPLASHING GASOLINE.

ACCELERATION HESITATION, NUMEROUS INSTANCES. ADVANCING FROM A STOP OR AT LOW SPEED, THE CAMRY HESITATES TO ACCELERATE FOR 2-10 SECONDS. ON JUNE 2, 2017 I HAD DRIVEN 5 BLOCKS, STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THEN ADVANCED TO ENTER 35-40 MPH HIGHWAY TRAFFIC. THE CAR ACHIEVED ABOUT 8 MPH, THEN WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FOR OVER 5 SECONDS WHILE TRAFFIC IS COMING AT ME. VERY DANGEROUS! I HAVE A DEALER APPOINTMENT ON 06JUNE2017 TO HAVE THIS LOOKED AT AGAIN. THEY HAVE TRIED DIAGNOSING THIS TWO PREVIOUS TIMES AND COULD FIND NOTHING. THEY SAID THE TRANSMISSION 'LEARNS' FROM THE DRIVER, SO THEY ERASED THE LEARNING TO START AFRESH. THIS DID NOT CURE THE PROBLEM. THE HESITATION IS INFREQUENT, BUT VERY DANGEROUS. NO REGULAR PATTERN TO IT. CAN OCCUR WHEN STARTING A DRIVE, OR WHEN THOROUGHLY WARMED UP.

MOON ROOF STRUCTURE NOISE WHEN GOING UP UNEVEN RAMP.STARTED AWHILE AGO BUT GETTING WORSE.
Aug 27, 2020
GOOD MORNING, I AM EMAILING TO ASK ABOUT A PROBLEM I HAVE BEEN HAVING WITH MY 2015 CAMRY HYBRID SE. FOR OVER A YEAR NOW, I HAVE BEEN HEARING THIS FRUSTRATING CLUNKING NOISE EVERY TIME I GO OVER A SLIGHT BUMP OR EVEN JUST WHEN MAKING A TURN. THE NOISE SOUNDS LIKE IT IS COMING FROM THE ROOF AND AT THIS POINT IS UNBEARABLE. MY CAR STARTED HAVING THIS PROBLEM A LITTLE AFTER 100K MILES. AFTER TALKING WITH MY FRIEND WHO ALSO IS AN AVID TOYOTA CAMRY BUYER, HE EXPLAINED EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES WITH BOTH HIS 2015 CAMRY, AND MOST RECENTLY WITH HIS 2018 CAMRY. HE SAID HE WAS ABLE TO GET BOTH VEHICLE'S ROOF ISSUE FIXED AT NO COST AND THAT THE CLUNKING NOISE WAS ELIMINATED. IS THIS A RECALL ISSUE ? I HAVE READ MULTIPLE BLOGS WITH CAMRY DRIVERS DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED AND FIXED. IT HAS GOT TO BE A MANUFACTURER ISSUE. I AM ALSO AWARE THAT MY VEHICLE IS OVER WARRANTY. INITIALLY, I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A MINOR FIX BUT WAS SHOCKED WHEN MY DEALER TOLD ME THE ESTIMATE TO FIX THE PROBLEM WAS ALMOST $3,000. HOW IS THAT EVEN FAIR? I WOULD LIKE TO DO WHAT MY FRIEND DID AND GET THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED AT NO COST SINCE THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE THAT I CAUSED. WHEN RETURNING TO MY DEALER AND EXPLAINING THAT MY FRIEND GOT THIS SAME ISSUE FIXED AT $0 COST, THEY TOLD ME THEY CANNOT FIX MY CAR. DRIVING THE VEHICLE HAS BECOME UNBEARABLE AS THE 'CLUNKING NOISE' OCCURS CONSTANTLY. I HOPE TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO GET THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED. I JUST CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY 3,000 TO GET THIS FIXED AND FEEL IT IS UNJUST TO EXPECT ANY 2015 MODEL OWNER TO DO SO. ESPECIALLY, GIVEN THE CURRENT TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC NONETHELESS.. I HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU GUYS SOON. BEST, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHEN I SLOW DOWN AND STOP THE CAR.
Apr 25, 2021
I GREW UP ON A FARM AND HAVE WORKED ON MANY MACHINES OVER THE YEARS. I HAVE OWNED CARS, TRUCKS, MOTORCYCLES AND A BOAT. I UNDERSTAND HOW VEHICLES ARE DESIGNED TO WORK. MY CAR IS A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY SE, 2.5L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. THE SAFETY ISSUE I AM HAVING WITH THIS CAR BEGAN SOMEWHERE AROUND 20,000 MILES AND ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PULL INTO TO TRAFFIC, AND WHILE PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE LOSE OF POWER. THE THROTTLE DID NOT RESPOND FOR 3-5 SECONDS AND DOWNWARD TREND IN RPMS. THE NEXT TIME I HAD THE CAR AT THE DEALER FOR SERVICE I REPORTED THIS. THE SERVICE TECH REPORTED THERE WERE NO CODES AND THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE RECREATED. NOW THIS SAME THING HAS HAPPENED 10-12 TIMES AT USUALLY AT BETWEEN 2000-3000 RPMS. IT HAS HAPPENED TURNING INTO TRAFFIC, ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE LANES AND JUST HAVING THE CAR A HEAD MOVE FORWARD AND ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE TO MOVE FORWARD AS WELL TO CLOSE THE DISTANCE. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN VERY INTERMITTENT, OCCURS WHILE IN MOTION AND USUALLY BETWEEN 40-60 MPH, AND SOMETIMES NOT OCCURRING FOR MONTHS AT A TIME. I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA CORP AT THE ADVICE OF THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEAL SHIP. I HAVE BEEN DISMISSED BY THE CASE MANAGERS AT TOYOTA, SHUFFLED OFF TO NEW CASE MANAGERS AND ALWAYS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE ADDRESSED UNTIL IT COULD BE RECREATED. I SHOULD STOP EVERYTHING AND RETURN THE CAR TO THE DEALER AFTER EACH INSTANCE. FINALLY, THE CAR WAS LEFT FOR A WEEK AND THE ISSUES OCCURRED WHILE TECHNICIAN WAS DRIVING IT. I WAS TOLD THE ISSUE HAD BEEN RESOLVED. THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I CALLED THE CASE MANAGER AND WAS TOLD THAT THE PROBLEM HAD TO BE RECREATED AGAIN.TOYOTA WOULD RATHER HAVE A DRIVER ON THE ROAD IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE THEN RESOLVE THIS ISSUE. NOW THE CAR SITS IN THE DRIVEWAY, MOSTLY UNUSED. THE DEALER WILL NOT GIVE DECENT TRADE VALUE BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE.

V6 ENGINE STUMBLED UPON ACCELLERATION IN TRAFFIC. I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH AND STARTED TO CHANGE LANES AND SPEED UP TO THE 50 MPH SPEED LIMIT ON THE 4 LANE CITY HIGHWAY. AS I SPED UP THE CAR FELT LIKE THE ENGINE HAD BEEN TURNED OFF. THIS LASTED ABOUT 3 SECONDS THEN SPED UP NORMALLY. WE HAD JUST DRIVEN 50 MILES AT 70 MPH SPEEDS AND HAD SPENT 2 HOURS HAVING LUNCH WITH FRIENDS. CAR WAS PARKED IN 80 DEGREE SUN DURING THE MEAL. THIS "STUMBLE"HAS HAPPENED TWO TIMES PREVIOUSLY AND ONE COMPLAINT FORM COMPLETED (# 10896696).

WENT TO THE WALMART TIRE & AUTO CENTER IN SAND SPRINGS, OK (STORE #00838) FOR A NEW SET OF TIRES. WHEN I LEFT, THE TPMS WAS SHOWING AN ERROR. I RETURNED TO THE CENTER AND THEY SAID IT WOULD CLEAR ON ITS OWN. IT DID NOT. THEY HAD BROKEN ONE OF THE TPMS SENSORS WHICH IS WHY THE SYSTEM WAS FAULTING. SO, THEY SENT ME AWAY WITH A FAULTY TPMS THAT THEY DAMAGED. I TRIED TO GET IT REPAIRED AT MY HOMETOWN WALMART IN SEARCY, AR BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL, SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THEY REPAIRED IT AT MY EXPENSE. I HAVE CONTACTED THE SAND SPRINGS WALMART MANAGEMENT ABOUT THE SITUATION WITH NO RESPONSE. I CONTACTED WALMART CORPORATE IN BENTONVILLE, AR AND THEIR RESPOSE WAS TO CONTACT THE SAND SPRINGS WALMART TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, WHICH I HAVE ALREADY ATTEMPTED TO DO. ATTACHED ARE PICTURES OF THE TPMS SENSOR THAT WAS BROKEN BY THE SAND SPRINGS WALMART, AND A PICTURE OF THE AFTER-MARKET TPMS SENSOR THAT WAS INSTALLED BY THE SEARCY, AR WALMART THAT WAS NOT COMPATIBLE WITH MY TOYOTA. I HAVE COPIES OF LETTERS TO BOTH THE SAND SPRINGS WALMART AS WELL AS WALMART CORPORATE THAT I CAN PROVIDE UPON REQUEST. I THOUGHT THE NHTSA SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE SAND SPRINGS WALMART TIRE & AUTO CENTER WAS DAMAGING THE TPMS ON CARS AND SENDING VEHICLES ON THEIR WAY WITH FAULTY TPMS. I HAVE INCLUDED AN IMAGE OF THE SERVICE ORDER #485700 42175 WHICH INDICATES THEY RESET THE TPMS WHICH CLEARLY DID NOT HAPPEN. IT ALSO HAS A SIGNATURE ON THE FORM THAT IS CLEARLY NOT MINE.

DEAR SIR/MADAM, I'VE BOUGHT A CERTIFIED CAMRY 2015 WITH 30K MILES ON IT 6 MONTH AGO FROM OURISMAN FAIRFAX TOYOTA DEALER! THE CAR CAME WITH 4 BRAND NEW GOODYEAR TIRES. LAST WEEK, BOTH MY FRONT TIRES GOT FLAT AT THE SAME TIME ON THE SIDEWALLS WHICH MEANS THE TIRES WERE OF SUCH A LOW QUALITY! ONE OF MY TIRES GOT A 3-INCH HOLE ON THE SIDEWALL AT LOW SPEED! THANK GOD WE WEREN'T ON A HIGHWAY IN THE TIME OF THAT INCIDENT! ANYWAY, I FOLLOWED UP THIS PROBLEM TO AT LEAST GET MY FLAT TIRES COVERED BY MY TOYOTA CERTIFICATION OR TIRE MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. BOTH OF THEM DENIED TO HELP ME AND REFERRED ME TO EACH OTHER! I'M STILL SHOCKED WHY TWO FRONT TIRES SHOULD GET FLAT AT THE SAME TIME ON THE SIDEWALL NOT ON TREAD! WHILE THEY'VE BEEN ONLY USED FOR LESS THAN 8K MILES! IT PUTS MY WHOLE FAMILY'S LIFE IN DANGER! THEY SHOULD AT LEAST PAY ME FOR THE FLAT TIRES! I HIGHLY APPRECIATE IF YOU COULD HELP ME SOLVE THIS ISSUE, REGARDS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR

THESE ARE MY OEM TIRES ON MY 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID WITH 13,000 MILES. THE TIRES ARE THE OEM BRIDGESTONE TURANZA EL400-02 TIRES. I HAVE DISCUSSED THE PROBLEM WITH LE MIEUX & SON TOYOTA IN GREEN BAY, WI. THE OWNER IS TOM LE MIEUX AND IS THE PERSON I TALKED WITH AMONG HIS SERVICE MANAGER AND THE SALESMAN. THE WEAR ON THE TIRES IS ACTUALLY EVEN ACROSS THE FRONT TIRES AT 7/32 AND 8/32 ON REAR TIRES. YOU WILL NOTICE THAT THE CENTER TREAD PATTERN IS ALMOST GONE EACH TIRE AND EXTENDING INTO THE NEXT TREAD PATTERN ON EACH SIDE OF THE MIDDLE TREAD. THERE HAS BEEN NO OVER INFLATION OF THE TIRES AND THE TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED THREE TIMES NOW ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND MY MAINTENANCE BOOK. PER TOM LE MIEUX AND HIS STAFF THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY WILL DO TO RECTIFY THE PROBLEM OF THE ODD CENTER TREAD PATTERN WEAR. TOYOTA PUTS THIS JUNK ON THEIR VEHICLES AND ONE SHOULD ONLY EXPECT TO GET 20,000 MILES FROM THEM. LOOSING THE TREAD PATTERN IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE TIRES SHOULD BE REPLACED. THIS CAR IS ALREADY HYDROPLANING. THE TIRES SLIP DURING ACCELERATION FROM A STOP SIGN. THE ALSO SLIP WHEN CORNERING ON WET PAVEMENT. I BOUGHT A 2007 CAMRY WITH THE SAME TIRES ON IT AND BASICALLY HAD A SIMILAR WEAR ISSUE PROBLEM IN 2008. AT THAT TIME BRIDGESTONE WAS ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THESE TURANZA TIRES AND TOYOTA REPLACED MY TIRES. NOT THIS TIME THEY SAY.

I HAVE A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY LE AND THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKE AND TRANSMISSION. ON AUGUST 13TH 2016, I WAS BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT BUT INSTEAD OF GOING BACKWARDS, MY CAR MOVED FORWARD. I TRIED TO PRESS DOWN ON THE BRAKE TO STOP THE CAR BUT THE BRAKE DID NOT WORK. THESE TWO ABNORMAL MECHANICAL MALFUNCTIONS COULD CAUSE TO DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURIES. I WAS SO SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR SO I CALLED THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO INFORM THEM OF THIS PROBLEM. THEY ADVISED ME TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO TOW MY CAR TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. TOYOTA ONLY DID A QUICK INSPECTION AND TEST DROVE THE CAR. AFTER, THEY SAID THE CAR IS IN NORMAL CONDITION AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT I CAN TAKE MY CAR BACK TO SERVICE WHEN THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. THIS IS RIDICULOUS BECAUSE IF THE TRANSMISSION OR BRAKE SYSTEM FAILS TO OPERATE PROPERLY WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY OR ON A BUSY STREET, I WOULD BE DEAD OR HAVE SERIOUS INJURIES. I WOULD NEVER HAVE THE CHANCE TO TAKE MY CAR TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. TOYOTA NEVER ADMITS THAT THEIR CARS HAVE DEFECTS OR FIX THEIR CARS.

THE SLANT OF THE WINDSHIELD IS SUCH THAT THE TOP OF DASH REFLECTS IN IT. AS A RESULT THE DRIVER IS LOOKING THROUGH THE REFLECTION OF THE DASH WHILE DRIVING, REDUCING CLARITY OF SIGHT. THIS IS A PARTICULAR ISSUE WHEN DRIVING FROM BRIGHT SUNLIGHT INTO SHADED AREAS AND THE REVERSE. THE REFLECTION OCCURS MOST OF THE TIME WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS. IT DOES NOT OCCUR ONLY DURING THE DAY. THE REFLECTION OCCURS AT NIGHT CAUSED BY THE LIGHT FROM STREET LIGHTS. THEN NOT ONLY IS IT DARK BUT THE DRIVER IS LOOKING THROUGH THE REFLECTION ON THE WINDSHIELD. THIS CONDITION HAS EXISTED SINCE PURCHASE, JULY 2015.

WHEN DRIVING ON A SUNNY DAY---OR AT NIGHT ON A LIGHTED THOROUGHFARE---WITH THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP, THE FOLLOWING OCCURS: THE AC OUTLET ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, AS WELL AS THE AC OUTLET ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE---BOTH OF THESE IMAGES (THAT IS, THE ENTIRE AC OUTLET, INCLUDING THE CHROME BEZEL SURROUNDING IT) ARE REFLECTED ONTO THE DRIVER & FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS---AND THEN SUBSEQUENTLY REFLECTED ONTO THE 2 OUTSIDE MIRRORS. THE RESULT IS THAT, WHEN ANOTHER AUTO IS APPROACHING ON EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT SIDE OF YOUR VEHICLE, THEN YOU WILL SEE THE APPROACHING CAR IN THE OUTSIDE MIRROR, BUT SUPERIMPOSED OVER IT WILL BE THE ENTIRE REFLECTION OF THE AC OUTLETS. THUS, IT WOULD APPEAR THAT, WHEN LIGHT ENTERS THE CAR & HITS ON THE AC OUTLETS, THEN THE IMAGE IS REFLECTED ONTO THE SIDE WINDOWS, & THEN CONTINUES ITS REFLECTION ONTO THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS. HOWEVER, WHEN THE WINDOWS ARE ROLLED DOWN, THERE IS NO REFLECTION ISSUE AT ALL. IN ADDITION, ALL OF THE BUTTONS & SWITCHES INSIDE THE CAR ARE COATED WITH SOME SORT OF CHEMICAL, WHICH MAKES THEM ALL LIGHT UP AT NIGHT IN A BLUE TONE; THIS MAKES IT VERY EASY TO IDENTIFY BUTTONS/SWITCHES IN THE DARK; HOWEVER, SOME OF THE BUTTONS ALSO ARE REFLECTED ONTO THE SIDE WINDOWS, & END UP AS WELL ON THE OUTSIDE MIRRORS (IN PARTICULAR, THE BLIND SPOT MONITOR, TRACTION CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE, & DYNAMIC RADAR BUTTONS, WHICH ARE LOCATED ON THE DASHBOARD JUST TO THE LEFT OF THE STEERING WHEEL.

BOUGHT WITH 22K MILES ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED AND THE SPEEDOMETER ISSUES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRESENT. WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL (UNDER 45 SUBURBAN AND URBAN STREETS) THE CAR SOMETIMES CANNOT REGULATE ON SLIGHT INCLINES AND SPEEDS UP BY UP TO 5 MPH OVER SETTING AND DOESN'T DECELERATE. SEVERAL TIMES IT'S DONE IT ON FLAT ROADS. IT'S NEVER DONE THIS ON THE FREEWAY EVEN COMING UP SLOPES. IT'S RARE THAT MY DIGITAL SPEED READING IS THE SAME AS MY SET CRUISE CONTROL SPEED. MY DIGITAL SPEED READING ALSO USUALLY DIFFERS FROM MY SPEEDOMETER BY ABOUT 2-4 MPH ALSO, SOMETIME LAST SUMMER AN ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES HAS BEEN OCCURRING AND IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. WHEN FIRST STARTING MY CAR (I NOTICE IT ON DAMP OR DEWY MORNINGS) I CAN HEAR MY BRAKES AS I'M BACKING DOWN MY SLIGHTLY SLOPED, CEMENT DRIVEWAY. I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND BARELY TAP THE GAS BECAUSE I GO VERY SLOWLY BECAUSE WE HAVE A SHORT DRIVEWAY (35-40FT TOTAL) AND A LITTLE LIP AT THE ENTRANCE WHERE THE DRIVEWAY MEETS OUR CULDESAC. IT'S NOT EVERY MORNING AND I'VE NEVER NOTICED IT ANY OTHER TIMES. SOUNDS LIKE WHEN BRAKE PADS ARE WEARING DOWN AND FEELS ALMOST SPONGY WHEN PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL. NO SQUEALING OR CHIRPING.

P20565R16 all four tires. These tires from Bridgestone have a UTQG rating of 640 A A with a "warranty" by the manufacture of 75,000 miles. The current set of tires on my car have approximately 18,000 miles and are very worn. The tire wear gauge reads 5/32 reaming tread. I doubt that the next 3/32 (5/32 - 2/32) will give me the remaining 57,000 miles. I buy my tires based on the UTQG rating. It's a good indicator of tire wear and has been fairly reliable up to this point. I Googled the tire to see if others have similar experience. The answer was YES. It appears that Bridgestone has a problem with tire wear on these tires. Reviews all pointed to terrible tire wear. Sadly, My wife's car had Firestone tires that we just replaced. Those had only 22,000 miles, but had a 600 UTQG rating. It appears that Firestone /Bridgestone do not know how tear wear works. First time in my life I was this disappointed in a tire company, but Firestone certainly had it's share of problems in the past. Someone needs to do an evaluation of Firestone tire rating practice. For me, it's too late. Thanks.

The sunroofs have a drain which sometimes can plug up. This car was maintained several times a year since purchase by Toyota dealer. When the drain plugged up this fall, water backed up and came down inside of the passenger compartment on top of the electrical fuses, body computer. The leak IS NOT DETECTABLE by owner or occupant. But when it manifests itself, it does so with the Blind Spot Monitor failing randomly, the seat belt warning lights might or might not work, the airbag safety system fails, sometimes the whole instrument dash acts erractic including random on/off blinking, the tire pressure monitoring system fails. All these problems can occur before owner is ever aware of the problem. Since one of the items that is getting corrosion is a fuse block - potential fire while parked in a garage or while being drive is a possibility. In an accident failure of air bags can result in a fatality. I'm an engineer, so when things started blinking on dash - I took pictures or had another occupant take pictures. I showed them to the dealer service - they didn't make the connection with corrosion on the body computer that monitors and manages all the systems including the anti-lock and rollover system. It's in for repair at dealer now, now idea on the cost - but they've said damage is extensive AND we caught it before most people encounter it. I checked and could find no Toyota Service Bulletin that warned to look for the problem, repair techs had vehicle for week trying to find problem - and it took me insisting on looking for corrosion before they found it. This should result in: 1)Toyota special service bulletin to inspect every year and verify sunroof drain not blocked. 2) read diagnostics codes of the body network computer for issues, 3)Toyota special service recall to repair damage free to customers.

Stability Control System warning indication 2. TPMS light 3. Radio power cycles 4. Check engine light. After turning the car off and then back on again these issues clear initially, but will intermittently happen at random durations of time anywhere from an additional 1 to 3 hours of driving. I've been discussing with Toyota Customer Service, who has known issues with the 2015 Toyota Camry under NHTSA Campaign ID: 15V144000, but they are trying to tell me that it only applies to V6 and Hybrid 2015 Camry's. I feel that this is also applicable to my vehicle VIN: [XXX] . I feel Toyota is refusing to acknowledge this critical safety issue affecting more 2015 Toyota Camry vehicles. I've never had an issue like this with 5 other previously owned vehicles. When asked if I could pay for the fix myself they informed me that it is not possible without a recall! My Toyota dealer is refusing to fix the issue and Toyota Customer Service hasn't responded in over 3 weeks to my inquiry.

I had no problems with my 2015 Toyota Camry SE that does not even have 90,000 miles on it, and then I started experiencing a shutter when driving between 25 and 50mph. It feels like you are driving over rumble sticks in the roadway, or an abnormal shaking. There is no warning light illuminated on my dashboard ex: engine light. If I take my foot of the accelerator pedal the shutter/shaking would stop or if I pushed on the accelerator to go faster, it will come out of the shutter/shaking also. While I was getting an oil change at the Toyota dealership, I spoke with the Toyota customer service representative about the closed recall (T-SB-0312-17) for this issue on 2012-2014 Toyota Camry's while doing research on this issue and I was told that Toyota has no plans on doing another recall because they have fixed the problem and I would have to have the car fixed myself which could cost upwards of $3,000.00 out of pocket. Why should a customer have to pay hundreds of dollars to have their car diagnosed for a known problem based on internet forums and other Toyota complaints. The engine light is not on, so a code may not even show up. I cannot afford to pay that, and Toyota should stand by their vehicles, stop giving customers the run around and do another recall as this is a big safety issue of faulty parts which can cause a major accident if the car loses power and stalls.

MY CAR STARTED A HAVING A VIBRATION/SHUDDER WHILE BEING DRIVEN ON THE STREET AND FREEWAY FROM SPEEDS OF 25MPH TO 50MPH. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AND ON TURNS . I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE TRANSMISSION BUT AFTER I LOOKED ONLINE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS HAD THIS ISSUE I LEARNED THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE THE SAME EXACT SYMPTOMS AS THEY DO. ITS SEEMS TO BE THE TORQUE CONVERTER. I LOOKED UP THE HISTORY OF THIS TORQUE PROBLEM AND IT GOES BACK AS FAR AS 2011 FOR TOYOTA CAMRY. I NEED THIS FIX BY TOYOTA AND TOYOTA SHOULD HONOR GIVEN THAT THE ISSUE WAS NOT FIX FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR MODEL.

WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, SOMETIMES THE CAR WOULD EITHER VEER TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT AND YOU CAN'T CONTROL THE STEERING WHEEL. YOU HAVE TO STOP THE CAR TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN TURN IT BACK ON AND THEN START DRIVING AGAIN. SOMETIMES IT WILL ALSO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN OR NOT ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN EVEN IF YOU ARE CONTROLLING THE GAS PEDAL THE CAR DOES WHAT IT WANTS. THIS IS VERY SCARY BECAUSE ONE TIME WE ALMOST HIT A CURB WITH THE TIRES BECAUSE YOU COULDN'T CONTROL THE CAR IT WAS GOING WHERE I WANTED TO. THE TIRES WERE OUT EXTREMELY FAST I NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR NEW TIRES BECAUSE THEY WEAR OUT WAY BEFORE THE WARRANTY THERE LIKE BALD WITH IN LIKE A COUPLE MONTHS SOMETIMES EVEN TO JUST TWO MONTHS AND THEY'RE BALD AND THE ALIGNMENT SPINE I'VE HAD IT CHECKED.

I WAS DRIVING HOME ON FRIDAY AUGUST 18TH AT ABOUT 35 MPH. ON A STRAIGHT ROADI SUDDENLY LOST MY STEERING. WHEN I GOT OUT TO LOOK AT IT THE RIGHT FROM WHEEL WAS TURNED 90 DEGREES TO THE RIGHT. WHEN LOOKING AT IT IT LOOKS LIKE THE RIGHT FRONT AXEL BROKE OR TIE RODS OR WHATEVER IS UNDER THERE. WHEN THE COLCHESTER POLICE CAME THEY DID NOT FILE AN ACCIDENT REPORT SINCE IT WAS THEIR BELIEF THAT SOMETHING ON THE CAR HAD BROKEN. THE OFFICER TOLD ME I WAS LUCKY TO ONLY BE GOING 35 AND NOT ON THE INTERSTATE DOING 65. WHEN THE WRECKER CAME HE SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS ON A CAMRY. I DID NOT HIT A POTHOLE OR CURB OR ANYTHING ELSE. NOW TOYOTA (HERITAGE TOYOTA, SOUTH BURLINGTON VT. IS NOT CONVINCED THAT IT WAS A DEFECT. THEY ARE WAITING FOR THEIR REGIONAL OFFICE TO MAKE A DETERMINATION. JUST TALKED TO HERITAGE TOYOTA AND THEY SAID IT WAS NOT A DEFECT. HOWEVER THEY DID NOT SAY WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT.

AFTER DRIVING THE 2015 CAMRY LE FOR APPROXIMATELY A YEAR, I NOTICED A MOLDY SMELL COMING FROM THE A/C VENTS UPON START UP. I GOOGLED AND FOUND OUT A CLASS ACTION SUIT WAS FILED IN 2015 IN CA FOR DEFECTIVE HVAC SYSTEM IN 2012 CAMRYS BECAUSE OF MOLD AND SMELLY ODORS COMING OUT OF A/C VENTS. IT APPEARS TOYOTA IS STILL MANUFACTURING CAMRYS WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE HVAC PART. I HAD MY MECHANIC DO A PROCEDURE TO CLEAN THE MOLD OUT AND PURCHASED THE CHARCOAL AIR CABIN FILTERS. I AM KEEPING RECORDS OF EACH TIME I HAVE THE A/C SERVICE AND FILTERS REPLACED. I HAVE HAD ALLERGY TESTS PERFORMED AND I AM HIGHLY ALLERGIC TO MOLD AND MILDEW. I LIVE IN FLORIDA AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE WITH A/C IN CARS EVER AND I'VE BEEN DRIVING 40 YEARS. REGARDING THE SEATS, THEY ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AFTER DRIVING FOR ANY EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. I DRIVE 3 TO 4 HOURS A DAY FOR WORK MON-FRI AND I HAVE HAD TO PURCHASE SPECIAL GEL CUSHIONS (COSTING $135) TO MAKE THE SEAT TOLERABLE. I HAVE HEARD COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CAMRY AND LEXUS OWNERS OF THE UNCOMFORTABLE SEATS, WHICH COULD LEAD TO HEALTH ISSUES. I PURCHASED THE 2015 CAMRY 9/28/15 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS APPROXIMATELY 38,000 MILES.

AFTER MY 25,000 MILE MAINTENANCE CHECK I BEGAN NOTICING A FOUL ODOR UPON ENTERING THE CAR. ODDLY ENOUGH, THIS ODOR IS MOST PRONOUNCED WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN SITTING FOR A FEW HOURS. WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND THE FANS ARE BLOWING, THE SMELL REDUCES IN STRENGTH. HOWEVER, ANYTIME THE CAR IS OFF, THE CABIN FILLS ONCE AGAIN WITH THIS HORRIBLE FOUL ODOR. TO DESCRIBE THE SMELL I WOULD SAY THAT IT'S SIMILAR TO A GYM LOCKER ROOM MIXED WITH GARBAGE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING AS MY CAR IS UNDER 2 YEARS OLD AND IT IS SOLELY USED FOR COMMUTING. FOOD IS NOT CONSUMED IN THIS VEHICLE AND ONLY WATER IS DRANK. THE FACT THAT THE SMELL DISAPPEARS WHEN DRIVING WITH THE FANS ON LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT THERE IS NOT A DEAD ANIMAL PRESENT IN THE CHASSIS. THIS SEEMS LIKE A MECHANICAL ISSUE. *TR

I'D LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH MY 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE. I DON'T FEEL LIKE THE SHIFTER IS VERY SAFE IN THIS MODEL. I HAD A NERVE RACKING INCIDENT THE OTHER DAY WHILE MY KIDS AND THEIR COUSINS WERE IN THE CAR. I WAS PARALLEL PARKING ON AN INCLINE. I TRIED TO PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE AND MY CAR ROLLED BACK. I THOUGHT, WOW, THIS MUST BE QUITE AN INCLINE. I CHECKED TO MAKE SURE I WAS IN GEAR, BUT NOTHING WAS VISIBLE ON MY GEAR SHIFT OR ON THE DASH DIGITALLY. I PUT ONE FOOT ON THE BREAK AND ONE ON THE GAS TO EASE INTO WHAT WAS HOPEFULLY STILL DRIVE, AND THE CAR ROLLED BACK AFTER I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE BREAK. I PAUSED FOR A LITTLE BIT, GETTING REALLY NERVOUS BECAUSE NOW I AM SO CLOSE TO THE CAR BEHIND ME. I TOLD THE BOYS THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH MY CAR AND IT WON'T GO INTO GEAR. I TRIED TO 'GUN IT' AND MY CAR ROLLED BACK OR REVERSED AND HIT THE BUMPER OF THE CAR BEHIND ME. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND E-BRAKE, AND ASKED THE 11 YEAR OLD TO CHECK WHICH GEAR THE CAR WAS IN, IF HE COULD DIFFERENTIATE THE COLOR INDICATOR AND HE SAID NO. BUT WAIT, IF YOU CUP YOUR HAND AROUND IT, HE COULD SEE THE 'P' FOR PARK. IN EXPERIMENTING NOW, IF THE SUN IS REALLY GLARING, YOU CAN'T SEE THE INDICATORS OF THE GEAR, THE CAR DASH DIGITALLY ONLY SHOWS THE GEARS FOR ABOUT A SECOND, WHICH WOULD BE HELPFUL TO KEEP IN VIEW ON THE DASH WHEN IN ANY OTHER GEAR THAN DRIVE. I WAS PRETTY SURE I WAS IN DRIVE THAT DAY, YET THE ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL. I FEEL LIKE I DON'T TRUST DRIVING IN MY CAR ANY MORE AS I WAS PRETTY SHAKEN UP AND FRUSTRATED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THERE IS A NAIL HOLE IN MY REAR BUMPER FROM THE LADIES FRONT LICENSE PLATE I HIT. FORTUNATELY SHE WAS REALLY NICE AND DID NOT PRESS CHARGES. I'M ALSO FORTUNATE THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED.
