HI, THE FRONT PANEL LIGHTS OF TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 ARE TOO BRIGHT AND THERE IS NO ADJUSTMENT POINT WHERE THE DRIVERS CAN CONTROL THE BRIGHTNESS. THE LIGHT IS TOO BRIGHT THAT IT DISTRACTS THE VIEW IN THE NIGHT DRIVING ALSO IT MAKES THE EYES TIRED SO QUICKLY.. TOYOTA SHOULD HELP TO FIX THIS PROBLEM .. *TR

SUN VISOR HAS BROKEN THREE TIMES. THIS CAUSES THE VISOR TO DROP AND IMPAIR VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE AND FELL IN MY FACE AS I WAS DRIVING. BLOCKING MY VISIBILITY FOR A FEW MINUTES THANK GOODNESS I WAS NOT DRIVING AT A HIGHER SPEED. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT JUST HANGS DOWN IN THE WAY. IT WAS NOT DAMAGED IN ANY WAY THAT I CAN SEE. JUST NORMAL USE. WHEN DRIVING I HAVE TO EITHER MOVE IT TO THE SIDE TO SEE. THIS HAS CAUSED SOME VISIBILITY PROBLEMS WHEN IT IS VERY BRIGHT OUTSIDE AND YOU ARE DRIVING INTO THE SUN. I HAD TO REMOVE IT AS IT WAS IMPEDING MY VISION DURING DRIVING. NOW I HAVE TO DRIVE ONE-HANDED IN ORDER TO SHIELD MY EYES FROM THE SUN. TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE AS A WARRANTIED ITEM. VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR FAILED TO STAY IN PLACE AFTER OWNING THE CAR FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 YEARS. THE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP OR IN ANY LOCKED POSITION AND IS VERY DISTRACTING, I HAVE HAD TO PIN IT UP TO KEEP IT FROM FALLING. IT SEEMS AS IF THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS NOR ARE TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS REPLACING THEM FOR FREE. WOULD BE NICE IF TOYOTA WOULD FIX THIS DUE TO THE VISIBILITY AND DISTRACTION THIS CAUSES WHILE DRIVING. AFTER REMOVING, I NOTICED THAT THE HINGE IS VERY TIGHT WHICH CAUSED THE PLASTIC VISOR TO BREAK. I ENDED UP BUYING A NEW VISOR ONLINE AND INSTALL MANUALLY. I HAVE LOVED MY TOYOTA AND NOW AM VERY DISAPPOINTED ABOUT THIS DEFECT. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. CAR ONLY HAS APPROX 43,000 MILES AND I AM ALREADY HAVING THIS PROBLEM!!! *TR

ALMOST EVERY TIME WE EXIT OUR VEHICLE WE GET A VERY STRONG ELECTRICAL SHOCK. THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY DAY BUT APPROXIMATELY 3 OR 4 DAYS A WEEK. WE ARE PRETTY TIRED OF GETTING SHOCKED AS IT IS NOT A LITTLE SHOCK BUT ENOUGH TO MAKE YOU JUMP. WE TRY TO TAP THE FRAME OF THE DOOR BEFORE WE CLOSE IT TO RELEASE THE ELECTRICAL CURRENT. THIS DOESN'T USUALLY HELP THOUGH. *TT

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR JUST FALLS IN FRONT OF YOUR DRIVING VIEW. IT IS VERY LOOSE AND WILL NOT STAY IN UP POSITION. IT APPEARS THE LOCKING MECHANISM JUST BREAKS VERY EASILY. THIS IMPAIRS MY VIEW WHEN DRIVING, CAUSING A SAFETY HAZARD. THIS SEEMS TO BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM WITH MAKE AND MODEL OF CAR FOR MANY PEOPLE. *TT

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT JUST HANGS DOWN IN THE WAY. IT WAS NOT DAMAGED IN ANY WAY THAT I CAN SEE. JUST NORMAL USE. WHEN DRIVING I HAVE TO EITER MOVE IT TO THE SIDE TO SEE. THIS HAS CAUSED SOME VISIBILITY PROBLEMS WHEN IT IS VERY BRIGHT OUTSIDE AND YOU ARE DRIVING INTO THE SUN.I HAD TO REMOVE IT AS IT WAS IMPEADING MY VISION DURING DRIVING. NOW I HAVE TO DRIVE ONE-HANDED IN ORDER TO SHIELD MY EYES FROM THE SUN. TOYOTA WILL NOT REPLACE AS A WARRANTIED ITEM. *TT

THE SUNVISOR OF THE DRIVER SIDE WON'T STAY IN AN UPWARD POSITION. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH THE VISOR INSTALLED, HAD TO TAKE IT OUT. *TT

I HAD BEEN HEARING A CLICKING NOISE WHILE USING MY SUNVISOR, AND ONE DAY WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON THE INTERSTATE, THE VISOR DROPPED IN MY FACE (OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW). I TOOK MY CAR TO A DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS AND WAS QUOTED AT $175.00 WITH PARTS AND LABOR. HAVING THIS VISOR EITHER DANGLING IN MY FACE OR TO THE LEFT OF MY FACE, IS A DRIVING HAZARD THAT COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT IN WHICH SOMEONE COULD SUFFER SERIOUS BODILY HARM OR EVEN A FATALITY..........RECALL PLEASE!! *TR

SUN VISOR BECAME LOOSE AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UPRIGHT POSITION. FIRST VISOR TO FAIL WAS PASSENGER SIDE, WHICH DID POSE A VISIBILITY ISSUE, BUT NOT TOO SEVERE. TRIED TO DUCT TAPE IT IN UPRIGHT POSITION, BUT IT WILL NOT HOLD. THEN, JUST YESTERDAY, THE DRIVER'S SIDE FAILED, WHICH DEFINITELY CAUSES A VISIBILITY ISSUE WHEN THE VISOR WON'T STAY UP, OR DROPS DOWN IN YOUR FACE, OR HITS YOU IN THE HEAD ON IT'S WAY DOWN, ONLY TO HANG IN YOUR VIEW WHILE DRIVING, AND NOT EFFECTIVELY BLOCK THE SUN WHEN YOU NEED IT TO. A FRIEND THAT OWNS A 2010 CAMRY ALSO HAS HAD THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT JUST HANGS DOWN IN THE WAY. IT WAS NOT DAMAGED IN ANY WAY THAT I CAN SEE. JUST NORMAL USE. WHEN DRIVING I HAVE TO EITHER MOVE IT TO THE SIDE TO SEE. THIS HAS CAUSED SOME VISIBILITY PROBLEMS WHEN IT IS VERY BRIGHT OUTSIDE AND YOU ARE DRIVING INTO THE SUN. OR ID I HAVE HAD TO MOVE IT TO THE SIDE IT IMPAIRS MY SIDE VISION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE TURNPIKE WITH MY CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 75 MPH WHEN MY CAR BEGAN "RACING" INTO OVERDRIVE. IT DID THIS FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN STOPPED, A FEW MINUTES LATER THE ENGINE RACED AGAIN. ABOUT. THAT TIME ANOTHER CAR PULLED UP NEXT TO ME TO TELL ME MY CAR WAS ON FIRE(SMOKING). I PULLED OFF THE INTERSTATE AND HAD TO HAVE MY CAR TOWED. TOYOTA FINALLY AGREED TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BUT I AM HAVING SAME PROBLEMS WITH NEW ENGINE AND I WAS CHARGED $1800 TO GET AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THE NEW ENGINE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED BOTH SUN VISORS IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE BROKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INFORMED HER THAT THE REPAIR COST AT HER EXPENSE WAS $150 EACH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

NOTICED THE ENGINE BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE (2 QUARTS EVERY 1500 MILES) AT AROUND 72,000 MILES. AT 85,000 MILES DEALER RAN A CONSUMPTION TEST AND INSPECTED THE ENGINE. ADVISED THAT THE SHORT BLOCK OF THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR $6500. CAR IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY ON MILEAGE AND TOYOTA WILL NOT COVER THE REPAIR DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE DEALER SAYS THIS IS A COMMON AND KNOWN ISSUE. A QUICK SEARCH ON THE INTERNET OF "2007 CAMRY BURNS OIL" SHOWED THAT MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAVE NO IDEA IF IT'S SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE THE CAR UNDER THE CURRENT CONDITIONS (THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T GUARANTEE IT WAS) AND I DON'T FEEL THAT IT'S MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS SINCE IT'S CLEARLY AN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR. ONLINE SEARCHES HAVE ALSO REVEALED THAT TOYOTA HAS COME OUT WITH A NEW SHORT BLOCK FOR THE ENGINE OF THIS CAR, SO CLEARLY, THEY KNOW THE OTHER ONE WAS FLAWED. THIS CAR IS NOT EVEN FIVE YEARS OLD. IT'S NOT NORMAL TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENGINE. TOYOTA IS INSISTING THAT IT IS. THEY WON'T ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. PLEASE INVESTIGATE! *TR

MY CAMRY IS BURNING THROUGH OIL AT A RATE OF ABOUT ONE QUART PER 1000 MILES! THIS IS NOT NORMAL IN THE LEAST. I KNOW THAT THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS SIMILAR TO MINE - I SURE HOPE THAT YOUR AGENCY CAN DO SOMETHING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH TOYOTA. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A TURN AND WHILE THE BRAKES WERE ENGAGED THERE WAS AN UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED DAMAGES. THE CONTACT PLANNED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

THE VISORS STOPPED STAYING UP, THEY ARE NOT WORKING, FIRST THE DRIVERS SIDE BROKE, IT JUST FALLS DOWN AND WILL NOT STAY UP. THEN ABOUT 3 MONTHS LATER THE PASSENGER SIDE FELL DOWN, I HAVE TO USE A STRAIGHT PEN TO MASH THEM TO STAY UP. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BY TOYOTA SINCE I READ ABOUT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET WHO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. *KB

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM SHEEHY NISSAN ON SEPT. 25, 2010, WITH 89,720 MILES, ONE PREVIOUS OWNER AND NO ACCIDENTS/DAMAGE REPORTED TO CARFAX, AFTER HAVING A STATE INSPECTION DONE OF ALL MAJOR SYSTEMS. I HAVE THE OIL CHANGED AT REGULAR INTERVALS (MOST RECENTLY, SEPT. 23, 2011 AT 110,990 MILES) AND HAD 100K MILE SERVICING DONE ON JULY 19, 2011. THE ENGINE FAILED DURING A DRIVE TO NEW YORK. CLIMBING THE BRIDGE OUT OF DELAWARE, THE RPMS ABNORMALLY INCREASED. I SAW THE OIL LIGHT ILLUMINATE, TURNED OFF THE RADIO, OPENED THE WINDOW AND HEARD THE ENGINE MAKING LOUD NOISES. I PULLED TO THE SHOULDER ON THE APPROACH TO THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE. WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP, THE ENGINE STALLED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE REMAINED AT THE MID-WAY POINT, BUT A GREASY FILM COVERED THE BACK BUMPER. AAA TOWED IT BACK TO MY SHOP, WHERE MECHANICS SAID THEY COULD NOT GET THE ENGINE TO TURN. THEY SAID THE OIL PUMP HAD FAILED. OIL WAS IN THE ENGINE BUT WASN'T CIRCULATING, AND THEY FOUND FRESH OIL AND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE PAN. I PAID $3,819 FOR A COMPLETE ENGINE REBUILD FOR A FOUR-YEAR OLD CAR. SEARCHING THE INTERNET AND THIS WEBSITE, I SEE A NUMBER OF OWNERS OF 2007 TOYOTA CAMRYS HIGHLIGHTING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR'S ENGINE, INCLUDING SLUDGE BUILD UP. I HAVE RECEIVED NO INFORMATION FROM THE DEALER ABOUT RECALLS. THE USED CAR WARRANTY COVERED THE ENGINE BUT ITS DURATION WAS 30 DAYS OR 1K MILES, WHICHEVER CAME FIRST. IN ADDITION, THE SUN VISOR ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE CONTINUALLY SLI

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN POSITION. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR IS ALSO QUICKLY LOOSENING TO THE POINT WHERE IT WILL BE A DISTRACTION OR FALL ON THE DRIVER WHILE IN OPERATION OF VEHICLE. THIS PART ON THE VEHICLE HAS HAD LIGHT USE AND MAINLY FOR SHEILDING GLARING SUN WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. WITHOUT THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE SUN VISOR, IT WILL PUT THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WHEN SHE NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT REMAIN IN THE UPWARD POSITION. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE, BUT OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT APPROXIMATELY EIGHTEEN MONTHS AGO, THE SUN VISOR WAS REPLACED FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AFTER THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,000.

MY LEFT DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR BEGAN DROOPING LAST WEEK. I NOTICED A FEW DAYS LATER THAT IT SEEMED TO BE GETTING LOWER AND LOWER AND WAS DROPPING INTO MY FIELD OF VISION, OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW. THEN, IT BEGAN RANDOMLY FALLING, WHICH COMPLETELY KEEPS ME FROM BEING ABLE TO SEE WHERE I'M GOING OR WHAT MIGHT BE IN MY PATH. DURING THE COURSE OF A 15-MINUTE DRIVE TODAY, IT FELL 3 TIMES. MY CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, HAVING A REPLACEMENT INSTALLED IS ALMOST $200 AND I'M LEARNING THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN 2007 TOYOTA CAMRYS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM THE INTERIOR. THE CONTACT MERGED ONTO THE SHOULDER AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHO TEST DROVE AND INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO FIND WHERE THE SMOKE WAS COMING FROM OR ANY OTHER ISSUES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER STATES SUN VISOR FELL OFF AND INTO THE DRIVERS LAP WHILE DRIVING *TGW

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FELL DOWN INTO MY VISION, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE. TOYOTA DOESN'T CONSIDER THIS A WARRANTY ITEM AND IT IS NOT COVERED, I HAVE DONE SOME DETECTIVE WORK ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND THAT THOUSANDS OF 2007 CAMRY OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM, SOME TWICE AFTER THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FIRST ONE. THIS SHOULD MOST DEFINITELY BE A RECALL AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND COULD BE A CAUSE OF SERIOUS IF NOT DEADLY CAR ACCIDENT. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP-IT FLOPS DOWN. SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVE-REMOVED, BUT NOW BLINDED BY THE SUN EVEN WITH SUNGLASSES ON. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE WITHOUT THE USE OF EXCESSIVE FORCE. IT FLOPS DOWN WHETHER IT IS TILTED FORWARD OR BACKWARD. I CAN'T SEE TO DRIVE UNLESS I MOVE IT TO THE SIDE, BUT THEN IT BLOCKS 80% OF THE VIEW FROM THE DRIVER'S WINDOW. I HAVE TO LEAN FORWARD TO SEE MY SIDE MIRROR. THIS IS ESPECIALLY A PROBLEM AT NIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENTIRE LENGTH OF THE DASHBOARD MELTED FOR AN UNKNOWN REASON. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS CAME ON AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. FUSES HAD TO BE PULLED DUE TO THE BATTERY BEING DRAINED. ONLINE RESEARCH SHOWS THERE IS AN APPARENT PROBLEM WITH THE HEADLIGHT RELAY OR SWITCH BUT THERE IS NO INFORMATION ONLINE WHERE THEY ARE LOCATED. ALSO THERE IS A SEVERE KNOCKING NOISE IN THE FRONT END. THE RACK AND PINION HAD TO BE CHANGED AS WELL AS THE STRUTS AND THE CAR DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 50K MILES ON IT. TOYOTA IS JUNK! *TT

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR HAS BROKEN AND WILL RANDOMLY DROP DOWN INTO FIELD OF VIEW WHILE DRIVING - WHILE THIS DOES NOT APPEAR TO AFFECT MY WIFE'S VISIBILITY (SHE IS 5' 1"), IT WILL COMPLETELY BLOCK MY NORMAL FIELD OF VIEW (I AM 6' 1"). I CAN ONLY SEE IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT DOES THIS AND REQUIRES ME TO DUCK DOWN QUICKLY TO TRY TO SEE WHILE TRYING TO MOVE THE VISOR AWAY AT THE SAME TIME. THIS COULD HAVE DISASTROUS CONSEQUENCES IF IT HAPPENED WHILE MERGING OR PULLING INTO TRAFFIC. *TT

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT I PURCHASED USED IN 2008. FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP CAUSING IT TO FALL AND DANGLE IN THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT. THIS IS ALSO DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, I'M HAVING TO LEAN OVER OR BEND DOWN TO SEE AROUND THE UNUSABLE VISOR. I CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE IF IT WAS COVERED IN MY WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD "NO" BECASUE A SUN VISOR IS CONSIDERED A TRIM. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE SUN VISORS BEFORE A PERSON HAS AN ACCIDENT AND HURTS THEMSELF OR OTHERS DUE TO THE VISOR CAUSING VISIBLITY PROBLEMS. I WILL NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER TOYOTA VEHICLE!!! *TT

I HAVE A 2007 CAMRY. MY VISOR FELL OFF AND HIT MY HEAD AND I ALMOST HAD A HEAD-ON COLLISION TODAY! THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. NOW THE VISOR WON'T STAY IN CLOSED POSITION AND IT KEEPS FALLING DOWN OBSTRUCTING DRIVER'S VIEW. *TR

AFTER I GOT THIS CAR, THE FOLLOWING WEEK I USED THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR AND THEN FOLDED BACK TO THE DEFAULT POSITION. AFTER 2-3 SECONDS, THE VISOR JUST FLIPPED OVER FROM THE DEFAULT POSITION (NOT FROM THE CLIP) BLOCKING THE VISION AND FOR A MOMENT I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS HAPPENING, BUT LUCKILY THERE WERE NOT VEHICLES AHEAD OF ME AND HENCE HAD ENOUGH TIME TO RECOVER. NOW THE VISOR WONT STAY BACK IN THE DEFAULT POSITION PROPERLY. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR HAS FAILED AND FALLS DOWN IN FRONT OF DRIVER CAUSING A VISIBILITY ISSUE. TOYOTA SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS OBVIOUSLY A DEFECTIVE PART AND SEARCHING ONLINE SHOWS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO NUMEROUS OTHER CAMRY DRIVERS. PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED AT NO COST. I OWN 2 TOYOTAS AND PURCHASED THEM BECAUSE OF THE QUALITY. THIS IS NOT WHAT I EXPECT FROM TOYOTA AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE. *KB

I HAD AN OIL CHANGE 2K MILES AGO BY A CERTIFIED TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND YESTERDAY NOTICED THAT MY OIL LIGHT KEPT TURNING ON AS I ACCELERATED AND DECELERATED. CHECKED THE OIL WITH THE DIPSTICK AND IT WAS NOT REGISTERING. HAD TO PUT 3 QUARTS OF OIL IN TO BRING IT BACK UP TO FULL. HAD TOYOTA CHECK AND THERE WERE NO LEAKS. SAID THAT ITS UNCOMMON THAT THIS IS HAPPENING. AND IT COULD BE BURNING OIL. THAT'S 1 QUART EVERY 1000 MILES WHICH IS UNHEARD OF! I CHECKED ONLINE AFTER MY VISIT WITH TOYOTA AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM! I ONLY HAVE 76K ON THE ENGINE AND MY WARRANTY RAN OUT AT 65K. DEALER SAID EITHER PAY TO HAVE THE ENGINE REBUILT OR BUY A NEW CAR. THEN SAID THAT HE SUGGESTS TO BUY A NEW CAR AND DUMP THIS ONE BEFORE THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE!!!

THE VISOR DOES NOT WORK RIGHT. IT KEEPS FALLING DOWN. I HAD TRIED DUCT TAPE, VELCO AND OTHER METHODS BUT IT DID NOT LAST LONG. ON AUGUST 18TH, 2011 MY DAUGHTER WAS TRAVELING ON 91 EAST, THE VISOR SUDDENLY DROPPED DOWN. IT BLOCKED HER VIEW AND MADE HER LOST CONTROL OF HER CAR FOR A SECOND, WHICH CAUSE HER TO HIT THE ORANGE STICK DIVIDER OF THE EXIST. *TT

SUN VISOR ON DRIVER'S SIDE STOPPED WORKING. FOR ABOUT A YEAR BEFORE IT STOPPED, IT WOULD MAKE A LOUD CRACKING SOUND ANYTIME I ADJUSTED IT. NOW IT IS HANGING STRAIGHT DOWN AND IMPAIRING MY VISION. I TIED IT TO THE GRAB BAR ABOVE MY DOOR WITH CABLE TIES (VERY ATTRACTIVE!), AND IT IS TOTALLY UNUSABLE. DRIVING WITH THE SUN IN MY EYES IS NOT SAFE AND I HAVE GOOD QUALITY SUNGLASSES. I DRIVE EAST IN THE AM TO WORK AND WEST IN THE PM HOME. I CAN'T AVOID THE SUN. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IMPAIRS VISIBILITY. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. HANGS DOWN AND BLOCKS VISIBILITY. HAD TO REMOVE IN ORDER TO DRIVE CAR. I HAVE NEVER HAD A VISOR BREAK ON A VEHICLE BEFORE. WE GENERALLY KEEP OUR VEHICLES AT LEASE 15 YEARS. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY TOYOTA. *TR
