On October 24, 2026, I was driving my 2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid SE eastbound on California Highway 60 near Main Street when I experienced what appeared to be a serious malfunction involving the lane keeping assistance and steering systems. I saw another vehicle and attempted to steer away to avoid a collision. However, the lane assistance system appeared to engage and pull my vehicle toward the other car, in the opposite direction from where I was attempting to steer. I tried to correct the steering and regain control, but everything happened extremely quickly. Despite my efforts, I was unable to avoid colliding with the other vehicle. Following the impact, my vehicle spun around on the freeway. The collision caused extensive damage to my vehicle, including severe suspension, wheel, and body damage. The vehicle became completely undrivable and required towing. California Highway Patrol officers responded to the accident. I explained what happened, including how the lane assistance system appeared to pull my vehicle toward the other car despite my attempts to avoid the collision. A police report was filed. Following the accident, I arranged to have the vehicle towed directly to my residence. I specifically wanted to preserve its condition and prevent unnecessary handling, modifications, repairs, or alterations that could potentially compromise evidence of the suspected malfunction. I contacted an automotive collision repair professional to evaluate the damage. The estimator off

2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid XSE, front-wheel drive. Highway fuel economy suddenly dropped from approximately forty-five to forty-six miles per gallon to thirty-five to thirty-six miles per gallon within the past week, around October tenth. This is roughly twenty percent below the EPA highway rating of forty-five for this trim. Driving conditions unchanged: gentle highway speeds around sixty-five to seventy, temperatures sixty-three to seventy degrees, no roof rack or accessories, original equipment tires at thirty-nine PSI which is at or above the door placard spec. No warning lights, no check engine light, no pulling to one side, no burning smell, no brake drag symptoms. No service visits or recall work performed in recent weeks. Ruled out weather, tires, roof accessories, and driving style. Possible causes include a software update to the hybrid control module that may be preventing electric assist at highway speeds, or a mechanical issue such as a dragging brake caliper. Requesting investigation into hybrid system software changes and hybrid powertrain behavior.

The contact owns a 2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid. The contact stated that the dealer had sold the vehicle in March 2026 without disclosing that the VIN was included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V869000 (Hybrid Propulsion System). The contact felt that the dealer jeopardized the family's safety by failing to disclose the recall prior to purchase. When the vehicle was later taken to the dealer for routine maintenance, the dealer informed the contact of the recall and performed the repair. The contact checked the Toyota application and verified the notification for NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V869000 (Hybrid Propulsion System). The manufacturer was notified of the issue by telephone.

I was hit in the driver side back quarter panel by the back tire by a semi and it pitted us and spun us in front of the semi, which drove down the road with drivers side of car against his grill and then once he started stopping, we turned and hit his driver side door and then spun three times before coming to a stop. No airbags went off in this collision.

SAFETY RECALL - 25TA15 (Interim Notice 25TB15) - Certain 2025–2026 Model Year Camry HV, Certain 2025–2026 Model Year Corolla Cross - Loose Inverter Bolt Recall Code: 25TB15 A bolt inside the inverter in the hybrid powertrain can become loose and could lead to a loss of motive power or could lead to a fire when the vehicle is on. A loss of motive power while driving at higher speeds or a vehicle fire could increase the risk of a crash or an injury. Complaint -- This recall issue was made known since 12/2025 and there is still no fix for my vehicle.

Refused a warranty repair on a nearly new Camry. The driver's side sun visor on my Camry failed and wouldn't stay up, which blocked my view of the road. A Toyota dealer in Kansas City had already inspected it and ordered a replacement under warranty before I moved to Atlanta. I booked a service appointment here on 10/10/2026 to have it fixed. The service department declined to cover it. I was told they had no record of the Kansas City visit, and that because I had used a sticker to hold the broken visor up so I could drive safely, my warranty was void. The sticker went on after the visor had already failed. It didn't cause the problem. No one offered to look up the prior visit by VIN, contact the other dealer, or check with Toyota before turning me away. I've opened a case with Toyota corporate. This was at Toyota Cobb in GA.

5-year-old child buckled in back seat with his booster. Vehicle put in park and went to try and get out of the vehicle. Went to unbuckle and it wasn't working. Trying to adjust and wiggle it it got extremely tight on child and after several attempts to unlock it wouldn't. The seatbelt needed to be cut. It turned into a emergency fast with a child hurt. Several people tried to get him out and unbuckle the seat and it wouldn't. The child's got red markings over his waist now and could have made things worse if not cut. The seat belt in the back seats need to be checked for this issue. The police were called to cut the seatbelt. Bringing the vehicle to the dealership to replace parts.

The driver's seat causes severe pain and numbness during normal driving, making it difficult to maintain a safe and consistent driving position. I experience significant pain, and my leg can become completely numb while driving. There is also a hard piece of plastic or metal that can be felt through the bottom of the seat. When it presses against me, it causes pain, numbness, and a significant distraction while driving. The lumbar support also feels extremely hard and positioned too high. The seat padding also appears to shift or move underneath me when I accelerate or brake, further changing my seating position. I have had to purchase and use pillows to sit on and place behind my back just to make the seat tolerable enough to drive. While they provide some relief from my leg going numb, they raise my body too high and move me too far forward, significantly changing my normal driving position and causing my head to almost touch the top inside of the car but without the added padding, the resulting pain and numbness can become severe enough that I am concerned about my ability to operate the pedals and safely control the vehicle. I initially thought the seat simply needed time to break in. However, I have now owned the vehicle for almost a year, and the problem has not improved. The dealership inspected the vehicle but stated that they could not find anything wrong with the seat. The exact component or cause of the problem is UNKNOWN. The vehicle and seat are available for fur

The contact owns a 2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V869000 (Hybrid Propulsion System); however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and it was determined that the vehicle was operating normally. The contact stated that the "Low Battery - Turn Power Off" warning light was illuminated on the instrument panel, and the rear seat air vents were inoperable. The vehicle was scheduled to be returned to the dealer. The failure mileage was 16,800.

Wiper blades are slow and during heavy rain visibility is very low. It's almost impossible and very unsafe to drive in the rain when the blades are so slow. Even on Max speed it's no where close to being enough to see very dangerous. Dangerously slow needs to be addressed Very Dangerous to drive in the rain

While driving, the front seatback exhibits an unstable internal structure. Whenever I shift my body weight or lean into the seat during normal driving maneuvers (such as turning, accelerating, or braking), the seatback pops and pokes my upper and lower back. It feels as though the internal frame, springs, or structural components are slipping, adjusting, or failing to remain securely locked in place. This is very distracting while driving. The location of the popping and internal shifting moves around.

SUBJECT: Technical Dispute and Evidence Regarding EV Mode Restrictions and Drop in MPG / Toyota BEC Case #XXX VEHICLE: 2026 Toyota Camry SE Hybrid VIN: [XXX] Dear Service Manager (Longo Toyota), I am writing to formally follow up on the system restrictions and diagnostic anomalies that my 2026 Toyota Camry SE Hybrid has been presenting immediately following the safety recall software update (Campaign 26TA16). The vehicle is currently experiencing severe hybrid powertrain limitations: the Automatic EV Mode fails to engage at highway speeds, and the system consistently locks or drops the vehicle into a restricted speed of 35 mph in electric mode, accompanied by a distinct "heavy" driving feel. ## 1. REAL-TIME DIAGNOSTIC EVIDENCE (PHOTO ATTACHED) As definitive mathematical proof that the vehicle is operating well below factory specifications, I have attached a photo of my instrument cluster's Trip Summary from my latest continuous drive: * Trip Distance: 51.1 miles * Trip Average: 33.9 MPG For a 2026 Camry SE Hybrid, which carries an EPA-estimated rating of 47-50 MPG combined/highway, a return of 33.9 MPG matches a conventional non-hybrid gasoline engine. This proves that the combustion engine is being forced to remain active continuously at cruising speeds due to the severe software parameters imposed during the recent service update. ## 2. RELEVANT COMPENDIO OF PATTERNED VEHICLE OWNER REPORTS Contrary to initial diagnostic feedback labeling this as "normal driving adaptation,"

I took my 2026 Toyota Camry SE to Bob Tyler Toyota on April 10, 2026, for safety recall service. The dealership kept my vehicle until approximately August 25, 2026. When I picked it up, the service paperwork indicated that the tires had been inspected, but it did not mention flat spots, recommend tire repair or replacement, or warn me that the vehicle might be unsafe to drive. I was not told of any tire problem at pickup. After leaving the dealership, I noticed the vehicle handled unsafely and veered off the road multiple times. I had not experienced this problem before leaving the vehicle at the dealership. I returned for evaluation on September 2 and again on September 14. Following its September 14 inspection, the dealership stated that the tires had flat spots from sitting while the vehicle was at its facility. The affected tires are size 235/45R18, listed for both front and rear on the door label. The vehicle and tires are available for inspection upon request. Whether the flat spots affected the alignment or other components is UNKNOWN. The unsafe handling put me, my passengers, and others at risk of a crash. I am concerned that the dealership inspected the tires on August 25 and released the vehicle without identifying or disclosing a condition it later confirmed. Toyota corporate advised me that the dealership is responsible for addressing the tires. I have requested a resolution. My vehicle has an open safety recall involving a bolt inside the hybrid powertrain inver

The front bumper is protruding out underneath the right headlight. I took it to the dealer and the advisor suggested that this was caused by scraping the bumper on the driveway or a curb. Since then, I’ve noticed multiple cars of the similar model year with the same issue. I feel like this is a manufacturing defect.

Both the front driver and passenger seat backs in my 2026 Toyota Camry XSE hybrid with 7,500 miles exhibit a distinct, physical popping sensation, shifting, and structural looseness during normal driving conditions (such as acceleration, braking, and turning). The internal frame or components of both seat backs feel unstable, as though they are not fully locking into place. I took the vehicle to the authorized dealer (Toyota of Plano) for inspection, but they declined to perform a repair, stating there is 'no repair at this time.' This unexpected shifting of the seat back while operating the vehicle is a safety distraction and raises concerns that the seat may not properly restrain occupants in the event of a sudden stop or collision."

The dealer was contacted and confirmed that the remedy was not yet available. Another dealer was contacted, Bill Penney Toyota (4808 University Dr NW, Huntsville, AL 35816), and confirmed that parts were not yet available. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The failure mileage was approximately 57,000.

I am reporting a potential safety defect involving the front driver and passenger seatbacks on my 2026 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid. Vehicle: 2026 Toyota Camry XSE Hybrid VIN: [XXX] Mileage: approximately 5,200 miles I first noticed the problem approximately two weeks ago. Both the driver and front passenger seatbacks have noticeable popping/clicking noises and feel loose. The condition occurs when leaning back against the seatback, accelerating, braking, turning, and when getting into or out of the vehicle. The seatbacks feel as though there is excessive movement or play in the seatback mechanism. The popping/clicking occurs during normal use and normal driving conditions. I am concerned that the looseness and abnormal movement of both front seatbacks could indicate a defect involving the seatback reclining/locking mechanism, seat structure, mounting, or another component that could affect occupant protection in a crash. I took the vehicle to Toyota of Plano on September 5, 2026, to have the issue inspected. I reported the condition to the dealership. I was told that there is currently no repair available for the problem. I am reporting this issue to NHTSA because the problem affects both front seating positions and involves abnormal looseness and movement of the seatbacks. I believe this condition should be investigated to determine whether it represents a safety-related defect that may affect other 2026 Toyota Camry vehicles. I have documentation from the Toyota dealership visi

As I was driving in stop and go traffic last night, my panoramic sunroof spontaneously exploded. Nothing fell on it, so when I say it "spontaneously" exploded, that's an accurate statement. It literally sounded like a gunshot. The cover was closed, so I was fortunate that no glass fell onto us (there were 4 adults in the vehicle at the time). I have only had this vehicle for 4 months. I dropped it off at Toyota of Temecula, CA this morning and I'm waiting to hear next steps.

While driving in the early AM, rear ended a mid year model Tundra. Swerved to avoid the 3 car pileup. Crushed in drivers side front quarter panel. Air bags did not deploy. Early warning and emergency braking didn’t engage

I am not sure if this is a vehicle or tire issue, but this car is a 2026 Camry nightshade edition, and it is experiencing significant Tramlining due to its combination of wheels and tires. I feel the manufacturer should do something to address this issue.

What system failed: The car accelerated on its own. It is available for inspection. I had pulled into a surface parking space creeping very slowly with about 4 feet before the concrete parking block at the front of the space. My foot was between the gas pedal and brake or was just barely touching the brake pedal when the car accelerated. The car jumped the parking block and was crossing a 3 foot planter area when I stepped on the brake, stopped the car and turned the engine off. Risk of Safety: I could have injured others or objects in front of the car or injured myself if I was unable to stop the car. Problem confirmed or reproduced by the dealer? unknown The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no warnings or symptoms of the problem before it happened that I noticed.

The vehicle has been undriveable since December. The recall is still active with no repair talks even available in August.

Everyone’s safety is at risk because these monitors are failing, and they aren’t doing anything about it. I asked for a loaner I don’t feel safe driving my brand new car. The last recall was a Risk of fire. So they got me a loaner, this one is only risking a crash so they don’t feel responsible. This cant be legal for them to make me drive around a car that may lose its hazards blinkers and speedometer at any time.especially since my other monitor is already working intermittently. I have zero faith in this car, and Toyota is refusing to prevent accidents by selling working vehicles, or providing a working vehicle until it is ready.

The car is owned by AVIS Car Rental. I happened to be driving this vehicle in the downtown Chicago area with only 11,820 miles on it the airbag light turned on and the passenger active status light for the airbag just completely turned off not indicating if the passenger airbag was enabled or disabled. As soon as I turned off the vehicle and turn it back on the airbag light didn't turn on anymore and everything started working as normal again. On different groups on Facebook I have seen people posting about the same issue with their own Camrys. Being a big company or corporation most likely no one will take the time to report the issue but I rather do my own part and do it for them. It's a 2026 Toyota Camry LE

While driving my 2026 Toyota Camry LE Hybrid at approximately 10 mph in a parking lot, the vehicle accelerated on its own without any input from me. I applied hard braking to bring the vehicle under control. No collision occurred. The specific component or system that failed is UNKNOWN — I suspect the speed control, powertrain, or electrical throttle system, but this has not yet been diagnosed. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the vehicle accelerated unexpectedly at low speed in a parking lot, an environment with pedestrians, parked vehicles, and other close-proximity hazards. I had to brake hard to stop it, which could have resulted in a collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or a fixed object had I not been able to react in time. The problem has not yet been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer. I reported the incident to Toyota the day after it occurred; Toyota opened case number 260811002989 and scheduled a diagnostic inspection appointment. As of this filing, that inspection has not yet taken place. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms before or during the incident. The dashboard showed no malfunction indicators at any point.

This is the only way I can get my message to you that I know of. It is very distracting having to deal with all the ADAS systems. They are actually a distraction for me, taking my eyes off the road when I most need them on the road to figure out why the "nanny" alarms are going off. I don't know why these things are being added to vehicles, but we have to turn them off as much as we can. If I get in an accident, it will be because of these features not because I am not paying attention to the road. Thank you for letting me share my perspective.

I encountered an accident on 6/6/2026 due to a sudden acceleration of this car. I stepped on the gas pedal slightly to move the car approximately one foot to the curve to park, when all of a sudden the car suddenly accelerated full force that it jumped over the curve and hit the wall of the restaurant. I asked Toyota to investigate the content of the black box. Toyota told me that the result and resolution should be out in 30 to 45 days. It’s been more than 45 days and I have been calling them and Toyota still cannot provide with the formalized result of their investigation. The data from the vehicle’s black box was obtained on 6/19/2026. My car is still on the repair shop. I want to know how the government can help me . I am convinced that this vehicle is defective, it has only 1,600 miles.

When the vehicle is running and the gear is in "Park," a rattling noise comes from the front after about 15–16 minutes; this occurs the moment the engine switches back to hybrid mode following the initial warm-up phase. This happens every day; I sit inside the vehicle for an hour during my break at work. This is not normal. Please investigate this issue. I purchased the vehicle four months ago. Thank you...

While washing my car, I noticed that the clips securing the front bumper—specifically on the right side, beneath the headlight—had come loose. I took the car to the Toyota service center on Monday, June 22nd. They inspected the bumper and found no signs of scraping or impact, so they agreed to repair it under warranty. I picked up the car that evening, and the bumper appeared to be fixed; however, when I got home and checked again, the clips had popped out once more. I returned to the service center and pointed out that the repair hadn't held. They took photos and said they would report the issue to Toyota. They got back to me during the week and scheduled an appointment for Monday, July 6th. I dropped the car off on that Monday, and on Thursday, I received a message stating the repairs were complete. I picked up the car Thursday evening, and the bumper looked fine. On Saturday, I inspected the bumper again; this time, the clips on the left side—under the headlight—had come loose. I reported the issue to the Toyota service center on Monday, and they promised to fix it as soon as possible. I am still waiting; it has been five weeks. I am completely dissatisfied with this car. I am lodging this complaint because, after researching online, I discovered that such problems are very common with the front bumpers of the 2026 Toyota Camry. Thank you.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The front seat assemblies in my 2026 Toyota Camry XSE have developed an abnormal creaking/popping movement and noise during normal use. The issue appears to involve the seat structure, frame, mounting mechanism, or related components underneath the front seats. The vehicle and affected seat components are available for inspection upon request. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? My concern is that the abnormal popping/creaking and movement may indicate looseness or another problem within the seat structure or mounting system. Because the seat is an occupant-restraint-related component and is designed to remain securely positioned during normal driving and a collision, I am concerned about whether the seat would perform as intended in an emergency or crash. I have not experienced a crash or injury related to this issue. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Toyota dealership for evaluation of the front-seat creaking/popping concern. The dealership was able to evaluate the concern and advised me that they were seeking authorization from Toyota regarding repair of the seats. I was subsequently asked to pick up the vehicle while they waited for Toyota's decision/authorization on how to proceed. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, ins

Glass was put in incorrectly from factory in Kentucky had rear window replaced under factory warranty was 3 other cars affected at my dealership with the same issue

Driver seat feels like something is loose in the back and is popping randomly almost like somebody’s kicking you in the back. It can be very distracting while driving. This happened on the 2026LE I had that I turned in because of that problem. I’ve had it seen several times by the dealership for this issue and there’s no solution. There’s also an issue with the wiper blades going extremely too slow for rain, especially in South Florida with weather that includes torrential downpour. You cannot safely see even at full speed wiper. This may seem like a time in which you should just pull over, but I was born and raised driving in South Florida in the rain and I’ve had multiple vehicles that I’ve never had this issue before. Electronic system can be fidgety. The rear cross traffic warning stopped working. I was not aware and did not realize I had somebody in close proximity that could happen accidentally hit.

While actively moving at highway speeds on July 13, 2026, the vehicle suffered an instantant, total loss of all 12V electrical auxiliary power. The dashboard flashed 'Hybrid System Malfunction' and 'Drive-Start Control Malfunction' before all digital instrument clusters, center infotainment displays, and cabin lights went completely dark. Power steering and braking assist dropped to emergency backup thresholds, creating an extreme safety hazard. The vehicle was moved to a dealership where it has remained disabled for 17 days waiting on factory engineering guidance.

Everytime I break and accelerate there’s a popping noise coming from the middle back part of the driver seat. I took it to a Toyota dealerships and they drove it and it did the same thing. And all they could do was tell me wait until there’s a recall.

This is a manufacturer safety recall (NHTSA #25V869) for a loose bolt inside the hybrid inverter that could cause loss of motive power or a vehicle fire. The vehicle was sold to me as new with the recall already open and unrepaired. As of this date, Toyota has not made the remedy available, more than 6 months after the recall was announced. I am concerned about driving the vehicle given the fire/power-loss risk described in the official recall notice.
