THE DRIVERS SIDE VISOR REPEATEDLY DROPPED IN THE EXTREME DOWN POSITION, BLOCKING MY ABILITY TO SEE FOR DRIVING. IT WOULD NOT STAY IN ANY UPRIGHT POSITION AND HUNG LOOSELY. OUT OF FRUSTRATION FOR MY SAFETY AND ABILITY TO DRIVE, I HAD TO PULL IT OFF THE FLIMSY METAL HOLDER UNTIL I COULD GET TO THE DEALER.

2,000 MILES AFTER AN OIL CHANGE I NOTICED THAT MY OIL LIGHT WOULD COME ON SPORADICALLY. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS THREE QUARTS LOW. THE CAR ONLY HOLD FOUR QUARTS OF OIL, SO THIS WAS ESPECIALLY CONCERNING. A MECHANIC CHECKED OUT MY CAR AND SAID THAT THERE WERE NO LEAKS, EVERYTHING WAS STILL FACTORY SEALED, AND HE DIDN'T KNOW WHY IT WAS CONSUMING SO MUCH OIL. I HAD AN OIL CHANGE 1000 MILES LATER, AND 2000 MILES AFTER THAT I WAS LOW ON OIL AGAIN! ACCORDING TO THINGS I'VE READ, THIS CAR CONSUMES ROUGHLY 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1,200 MILES IT IS DRIVEN. THIS SHOULD BE FIXED BY TOYOTA. *JS

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR FAILED ON ME WHEN I PUT IT DOWN. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE SUN VISORS. THIS ISSUE CAN BE A POTENTIAL HAZARD AS IT OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW DURING NORMAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO MOVE THE VISOR TO THE SIDE IN ORDER TO HAVE A FULL VIEW AHEAD. IF THE VISOR IS LEFT IN FRONT OF ME THEN IT IS HARD TO SEE TRAFFIC AND TRAFFIC LIGHTS IN FRONT OF ME AND CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. TOYOTA SHOULD REPLACE THIS PART AS IT CAN BE A POTENTIAL HAZARD. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN THE "UP" OR STOWED POSITION IT HANGS DOWN, ABOUT HALFWAY. I REALLY BELIEVE THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT HAS BLOCKED PART OF MY SIGHT. TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS WANT OVER $200 TO FIX IT. THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT FREE OF CHARGE UNLESS THERE HAVE BEEN MORE COMPLAINTS. THIS IS ALSO NOT INCLUDED IN ANY OF THEIR WARRANTY PRODUCTS. *TR

MY CAR IS CONSUMING OIL OUT OF NORMAL. THE DEALER PUT ME ON OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LAST YEAR. I WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL CONSUMPTION IS OK. NOW I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AGAIN. I WAS VERY LOW ON OIL ALMOST I QT LEFT IN THE ENGINE. I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL BECAUSE THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT KEEPS POPPING UP WHEN I APPLY BRAKES. I WENT TO THE DEALER AGAIN YESTERDAY AND THEY PUT ME ON OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AGAIN. I WAS READING THE FORUMS AND EVERYONE HAS THE SAME ISSUE. THERE IS NO SOLUTION RECOMMENDED BY TOYOTA. WE ARE TOLD TO KEEP COMING BACK TO THE WORKSHOP EVERY 1200 MILES WITHOUT A FIX. PLEASE HELP. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR STARTED TO FALL APART AROUND MARCH 2011, IT BECAME SAFETY ISSUE AS IT FAILED TO STAY IN STOWED POSITION AND WAS ONLY MATTER OF TIME BEFORE IT FELL OFF ALTOGETHER. WENT TO DEALER TO BUY REPLACEMENT AT COST OF $121.85. NOW PASSENGER SIDE VISOR IS DOING THE SAME THING AND WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED SOON. ALSO REAR LAP SEAT BELT IS UNSERVICEABLE DUE TO LOCKED-IN RETRACTED POSITION. *TR

CAR IS BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL AND PER THE DEALERSHIP, THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. FROM WHAT I SEE ONLINE, THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS BURNING MORE OIL THAN NORMAL. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE OIL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CHECKED THE OIL AND NOTICED THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE OIL WAS CHANGED 4,700 MILES PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT ADDED ONE QUART OF OIL TO THE VEHICLE AND THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. AN OIL CHANGE WAS PERFORMED HOWEVER, SIX DAYS LATER THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND ADVISED THAT THERE WERE NO OIL LEAKS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD BURN EXCESSIVE OIL EVERY THOUSAND MILES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WOULD CHECK THE OIL LEVEL EVERY ONE THOUSAND MILES AND WOULD HAVE TO ADD ONE QUART OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AT 3,000 MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION OF THE LEAK BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE LEAK. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 147,000.

I TOOK THE 2007 CAMRY WITH ABOUT 67,000 MILES TO THE REPAIR SHOP BECAUSE OF A SQUEALING NOISE: THE REAR ROTORS WERE WORN OUT COMPLETELY AND THE REAR BRAKES HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $459.00. AFTER THE REPAIRS, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED. SOMETIMES IT WOULD PULL TO THE RIGHT AND IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK TO THE LEFT. ON APRIL 5, I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP WHERE THE FRONT ROTORS HAD TO BE MACHINED AT A COST OF $85. THE FRONT BRAKES WERE OKAY. *TR

CONCERNING THE DRIVER'S SIDE INTERIOR SUN VISOR; THE PLASTIC HOUSING OF THE VISOR SEPARATED FROM METAL ARM THAT ATTACHES TO THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE (THE PLASTIC CASING CRACKED). THE VISOR WAS DANGLING FROM THE METAL ATTACHMENT AND OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW, HITTING MY FOREHEAD AS I WOULD BRAKE OR ACCELERATE. HAD TO PULL IT OFF COMPLETELY TO AVOID VISIBILITY OBSTRUCTION, DISTRACTION FROM DRIVING, AND BEING STRICKEN ON MY FOREHEAD! *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR HAS BROKEN AND IS HANGING IN THE LINE OF VISION. THIS IS CAUSING AN OBSTRUCTION OF VIEW FOR THE DRIVER WHETHER IN THE FORWARD FACING POSITION OR ROTATED TO THE LEFT SIDE WHERE IT BLOCKS THE DRIVER'S VISION TO THE LEFT. THE VISOR WAS NOT BEING MISHANDLED WHEN IT BROKE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE DRIVER CANNOT SEE PROPERLY AND CAUSES PROBLEMS WHEN DRIVING AND TRYING TO DEAL WITH THE VISOR IN ORDER TO IMPROVE VISIBILITY OF THE ROAD. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2007 CAMRY YET TOYOTA HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE VISORS. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SUN VISOR HAS DROPPED ON BOTH OF OUR 2007 CAMRY'S THAT WE OWN. ONE IS SO BAD THAT WE REMOVED IT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE WITH IT DOWN. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE DRIVING EAST OR WEST YOU ARE BLINDED BY THE SUN. THE OTHER CAR IS JUST AS BAD BECAUSE THE VISOR WON'T STAY UP. THIS TOO IS A PROBLEM FOR DRIVER SAFETY AND FOR THE SAFETY OF OTHERS!!! THIS ISN'T A COINCIDENCE THAT OUT OF ALL CAMRY'S SOLD THAT WE GOT THE TWO WHERE THE VISORS FAILED. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!! WHY SHOULD THE OWNER BE HELD TO PAYING FOR THIS EXPENSE WHEN IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT? *TR

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

THE SUN VISOR STARTED FLOPPING DOWN WHEN I WAS DRIVING. IT WOULD NOT STAY UP. I USED A STRAIGHT PIN TO HELP HOLD IT UP OUT OF WAY SO THAT I COULD DRIVE, BUT NEEDED IT WHEN FACING THE SUN TO BLOCK OUT THE SUN'S RAYS. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR NO LONGER STAYS IN THE UP OURT OF THE WAY POSITION. THE VISOR NOW FLOPS DOWN AND DOES NOT STAY UP CAUSING A EMPAIRMENT OF YOUR VISION. IF PUSHED TO THE SIDE WINDOW IT IS STILL DOWN BLOCKING MY SIDE VISION. THIS IS A VERY COMMON COMPAINT FROM MANY TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE WHEN SHE WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRONT AND REAR STRUTS WERE LEAKING. IN ADDITION, THE SUN VISORS WOULD NOT REMAIN UPRIGHT AND WAS IMPAIRING THE CONTACT'S VIEW OF THE ROADWAY. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO REPLACE THE STRUTS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT FAILED TO OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 40,000 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000. UPDATED 04/19/12*LJ THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE BRAKES WOULD SQUEAL WHEN THEY WERE APPLIED. THE DEALER FOUND THE FRONT ROTORS WERE GLAZED. UPDATED 04/25/12

I WAS DRIVING ALONG AT ABOUT 40MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE WAS NO POWER GOING TO THE WHEELS. THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING BUT NO POWER WAS GOING TO THE WHEELS. LUCKILY, I WAS ON A CITY STREET AND I WAS ABLE TO COAST AROUND A CORNER. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND CAUGHT MY BREATH, AND THEN WHEN I PUT IT IN GEAR IT RAN OKAY. THE NEXT DAY, THE SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN--LOSS OF POWER--COASTING TO A STOP. I DOUBLE CHECKED AND THE CAR WAS IN FACT IN DRIVE--BUT NO POWER TO THE WHEELS. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE HYBRID ECM (WHICH THEY HAVE RETAINED) AND THE PARK/NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH. (WHICH I HAVE). *TR *JS

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE AND WILL NOT GO BACK UP. THIS INHIBITS MY ABILITY TO DRIVE SAFELY ESPECIALLY IN BRIGHT AND LOW LIGHT SITUATIONS AS WELL AS IN GENERAL BECAUSE IT OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW. TOYOTA WILL NOT FIX IT UNLESS I PAY $150! *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUNVISOR WILL NOT REMAIN IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION AND CONTINUED TO FALL, OBSTRUCTING THE CONTACT'S VIEW OF THE ROADWAY.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER WOULD LIKE TO KNOW OF ANY FIRES SO FAR REPORTED, THAT HAVE OCCURRED SPONTANEOUSLY OR ONLY WHEN THE WINDOW SWITCH WAS IN OPERATION OR HAD BEEN USED SHORTLY BEFORE THE FIRE *TGW

CAR WILL HESITATE FOR NEARLY 3 SECONDS WHEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR HARD TO ENTER A FREEWAY FROM 30-40MPH ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP. DOES NOT REPEAT ITSELF AS THE CAR HAS TO BE UNDER A CERTAIN LOAD, THROTTLE POSITION, AND SPEED. THE RANDOMNESS OF THE ISSUE WILL LEAVE YOU STARTLED AND CRINGING IN FEAR OF A NEAR MISS. ENGINE SEEMS TO STALL THEN TRANSMISSION WILL FINALLY DROP DOWN ONE GEAR WHICH IS NOT ENOUGH TO BRING THE ENGINE RPM UP. THEN AT THE LAST MOMENT, THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS AND THE MOTOR COMES ALIVE. HAPPENS SOMETIMES WHEN PASSING. ALL OTHER TIMES IT IS OK. THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED. TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IS USELESS AS THEY DENY, DENY, DENY AND STATE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE. IT IS A DEFINITE SOFTWARE ISSUE BETWEEN THE ENGINE ECU AND THE TRANSMISSION ECU. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A 268BHP V6 ENGINE IF YOU CAN NOT UTILIZE THAT POWER WHEN NEEDED? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, A SMOKE ODOR CAME FROM THE WINDOW CONTROL PANEL.

ON 12/26/11, I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ALONG WITH THREE PASSENGERS AND BEGAN TO SEE BLACK SMOKE THROUGHOUT THE CAR. I DETERMINED THAT THE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE DRIVER SIDE MASTER CONTROL PANEL ON THE DOOR. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE SMOKE IMMEDIATELY TURNED INTO FLAMES, WHICH CAUSED POOR VISIBILITY AND COMPLETE PANIC. LUCKILY, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND HAD ALL PASSENGERS IMMEDIATELY EXIT THE VEHICLE. PRIOR TO EXITING THE VEHICLE, THE FLAMES CAUGHT THE LEFT SIDE OF MY ARM AND STARTED TO BURN MY COAT. DURING THIS ORDEAL, I NOTICED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW IMMEDIATELY DROPPED UNEXPECTEDLY. AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE THE FLAMES QUICKLY INCREASED AND BEGAN SHOOTING INTO THE AIR UNCONTROLLABLY. ON INSTINCT, I DECIDED TO LEAVE THE CAR DOOR OPEN FACING THE STREET AS I WAS FEARFUL TO CLOSE THE DOOR, WHICH WOULD FURTHER EXACERBATE THE FIRE. MY HUSBAND WAS ABLE TO RETRIEVE A PIECE OF CLOTHING FROM THE TRUNK OF THE CAR AND USED IT TO PUT OUT THE FIRE WHILE SUSTAINING A BURN ON HIS HAND. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED 911 AS THEY DISPATCHED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO THE SCENE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT COMPLETELY EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE AND INDICATED THAT IT MAY HAVE BEEN CAUSED DUE TO ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. OVERALL, IT WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE FOR MYSELF AND FAMILY MEMBERS AS I STRONGLY FEEL THAT NO ONE HAS A CLEAR EXPLANATION AS TO THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE AND FAILS TO ENSURE MY FAMILY'S SAFETY AND WELL BEING. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED MY INSURANCE AGENT, THE DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THE INCI

AFTER STARTING THE CAR AND DRIVING THE DRIVER SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. WITHIN SECONDS SMOKE WAS INSIDE THE VEHICLE COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW CONTROLS. PRIOR TO PUTTING THE CAR IN DRIVE THE DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO PUT THE DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT AND REAR WINDOWS DOWN. THE REAR WINDOW SWITCH WOULD NOT MOVE. THE DRIVER PULLED THE CAR OVER AND WITHIN A FEW SECONDS THE SMOKE STOPPED COMING OUT OF THE WINDOW SWITCH. THEN DROVE THE VEHICLE TO THE TOYOTA DEALER APPROXIMATELY 1-1/2 TO 2 MILES DOWN THE ROAD WHERE THEY ASSESSED THE PROBLEM AND DETERMINED THAT THE WINDOW SWITCH WAS BURNED OUT. THEY UNPLUGGED THE SWITCH AND ORDERED A NEW ONE WHICH WAS REPLACED ON 3/6/12. *TR
