PASSENGER VISOR NOT WORKING

TOO MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION

MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 LE, IS BURNING WAY TO MUCH OIL. I HAVE CONSTANTLY KEEP PUTING OIL IN MY ENGINE SO THAT IT DOESN'T BURN. AND MY CAR DOESNT HAVE ANY LEEKS SO THIS IS DEFINITELY AN ENGINE PROBLEM.

MY ENTIRE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN STICKY / TACKY FOR YEARS. I DO NOT KNOW WHY OR HOW IT GOT THIS WAY. IT ACCUMULATES DUST AND GRIME, AND I HAVE NO WAY TO PROPERLY CLEAN IT SINCE ALL TOWELS AND CLEANING CLOTHS, UNLESS EXTREMELY WET, GET CAUGHT ON IT, AND THEN IT ACCUMULATES FIBERS FROM THE CLEANING CLOTHS. IF I PRESS INTO THE DASHBOARD WITH MY FINGER, IT RETAINS A FINGERPRINT. I CAN EASILY CLEAVE A PIECE OFF WITH MY NAIL. OBVIOUS WHEN THE DASHBOARD IS SHINY ON A SUNNY DAY, THE GLARE IS ON THE WINDSHIELD THAT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR RECENTLY

DASHBOARD HAS MELTED AND IS VERY STICKY. GLARE FROM THE SHINY SURFACE ON WINDSHIELD MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. FROM RESEARCH, THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO TOYOTA.

DASHBOARD MELTING. CREATES VISIBILITY ISSUES DUE TO REFLECTION ON WINDSHIELD.

TAKATA RECALL - FOR SOME REASON THIS MODEL HAS NEVER APPEARED ON THE TAKATA RECALL LIST AND I AM CONCERNED AS MY CAR AGES THAT THIS IS AN INCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. HOW CAN THIS BE ADDRESSED? BY THE WAY I AM THE ORIGINAL AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS OR WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE PISTONS WERE FAULTY, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO EXPERIENCE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 131,000. THE VIN WAS INVALID.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT THE ENGINE LIGHT IS BLINKING AND THE CAR IS MAKING NOISE THE OIL HAS BEEN CHARGED OVER A 10 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT FOR A YEAR & BOUGHT FROM A DEALER I GOT IT LOOK AT BY TOYOTA FOR THEM TO TELL ME I NEED A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE MY OIL PUMP IS GOING OUT AND ROD-MAIN BEARINGS IN THE ENGINE ARE BAD THE FUEL INJECTORS. ARE GOING OUT CANT RUN MY A.C BECAUSE IT MAKES MY CAR TURN OFF I MEAN COME ON.

WE PURCHASED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND AFTER THREE MONTHS OF OWNING IT WE NOW NEED A NEW ENGINE. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A FUNNY NOISE AND SMOKING. HE HAD TO STOP ON THE HIGHWAY IN A TURNING LANE AT NIGHT. I AM SO UPSET THAT WE NOW HAVE A NONWORKING VEHICLE THAT WE STILL OWE MONEY ON. I HAVE BEEN READING UP ON THIS AND APPARENTLY THERE ARE MANY 2007 MODELS WITH ENGINE FAILURE. I'M NOT A DETECTIVE BUT SOMETHING IS CRIMINAL ABOUT THIS. WE WORK HARD TO PAY FOR THESE VEHICLES....THEY ARNT A TOY WE PLAY WITH....WE NEED THEM TO GET PLACES SAFELY. IF THERE ARE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THIS ISSUE....IT MUST BE A MANUFACTURER FLAW. THEY SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE IT RIGHT.

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY OR NEIGHBORHOODS THE SPEEDOMETER WOULD GO TO 0 INDICATING THAT THE SPEED OF THE CAR WAS UNKNOWN. NOT KNOWING WHAT SPEED YOU ARE DRIVING ALLOWS FOR EXCESSIVE SPEED AND COULD EASILY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR GET STOPPED FOR SPEEDING. THE ABS MODULE IS THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE

THE DASH MELTS IN THE HEAT CAUSING IT TO BECOME VERY SHINY CAUSING HUGE AREAS WHEN THE SUN SHINES TO REFLECT ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THIS GLARE IS SO BAD IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE ANYTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR OTHER THAN THE REFLECTION OF THE DASH

I BOUGHT MY 2007 CAMRY IN 2006 AND IT HAS BEEN GREAT TILL THE LAST 6 MONTHS WHEN THE DASH BOARD STARTED TO GET STICKY AND IS NOW FULLY STICKY AND GLOSSY TO THE POINT WHERE THE SUN REFLECTS OFF IT AND IS BLINDING. TOYOTA SAID THEY HAD A RECALL WHICH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE ADDRESS WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR IS THE SAME IN MY DRIVER'S LICENSE AND I NEVER CHANGED IT. I LIVE IN BUENA PARK SINCE 1991 AND MY DRIVERS LICENSE HAS THAT ADDRESS SINCE I WAS 18 (18 YEARS AGO). I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THE RECALL NEEDED AND ITS. OT THEIR CONCERN. I FIND IT IRRESPONSIBLE THAT TOYOTA TAKES NO ACTION FOR FAULTY MANUFACTURING OF THEIR PRODUCTS AND SHIFTS THE FAULT TO THE CONSUMER WHEN I HAD NO IDEA THERE WAS ANY ISSUES. SECONDLY WHEN THEY HAD THE GAS PEDAL RECALL I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR MAINTENANCE AND WHEN I GOT IT BACK THEY CUT THE PEDAL WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE AND SAID A REPLACEMENT WAS ON BACK ORDER. I HAVE SINCE 2010 REQUESTED THE REPLACEMENT TILL 2011 AND THEY ALWAYS SAID IT IN BACK ORDER. I GAVE UP ASKING BECAUSE I GOT EXCUSES. WHEN I'M DRIVING MY FOOT SLIPS OFF THE GAS PEDAL BECAUSE ITS SHORTER. ITS HAZARDOUS WHEN YOUR MAKING A TURN AND THE CAR LOSES ACCELERATION AND YOU HAVE TO QUICKLY HIT THE GAS AGAIN. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN THE ROAD IS SLIPPERY IN A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA WITH THESE CONCERNS AND ALL THEY SAY IS THAT THERE ISNT ANYTHING THEY CAN DO.

THE DASHBOARD HAS BECOME EXTREMELY STICKY, CAUSING A SEVERE REFLECTION ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE WINDSHIELD. I CONTACTED TOYOTA, THEY SAID THE WARRANTY FOR THIS HAS EXPIRED. CASE #[XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT

OUR 2007 CAMRY CONSTANTLY EATS OIL. WE CHECK IT EVERY 2-3 WEEKS AND IT'S NOT ON THE DIP STICK. I ADD ABOUT AN ADDITIONAL 3 QTS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES... THIS IS NOT NORMAL! CAR DOES NOT SMOKE NOR IS IT LEAKING THE OIL.

DASH IS STICKY. ANYTHING TOUCHING IT STICKS LIKE A MAGNET.

THE DASHBOARD ON MY CAMRY IS MELTING CAUSING A STICKY RESIDUE. MY SAFETY CONCERN IS WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, SUN CAUSES A GLARE ON TO THE WINDSHIELD PREVENTING ME FROM SEEING ANY ON COMING TRAFFIC, OR OBJECTS. WITHOUT CLEAR VISIBILITY DRIVING THIS CAR HAS CAUSED ME SEVERAL NEAR HEAD ON COLLISIONS WITH ONGOING TRAFFIC. DRIVING THIS CAR I PURCHASED SCARES ME THAT THIS IS ISSUE WILL CAUSE ME AN ACCIDENT WHICH COULD TAKE MY LIFE OR SOMEONE ELSE ON ROAD I MAY HIT. TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF THE DASH ISSUE YEARS PRIOR BUT ONLY FIXED SOME OF THIS DEFECTED DASHES BY CREATING A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT. IF THE PROBLEM WAS PRESENT OR KNOWN IT WAS REPLACEABLE WITH IN THEIR WINDOW OF TIME, THEY WILL NOT MAKE THEIR DEFECTED DASH CORRECT. I REALIZE OVER TIME ALL COMPONENTS OF A CAR HAVE WEAR AND TEAR. THIS IS NOT THAT ISSUE AT ALL. THIS IS A ISSUE OF A DASH BEING USED THAT HAS A CHEMICAL WHILE IN SUN MELTS. THERE WAS TWO PRIOR CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS AND TO PREVENT A RECALL AND NOTIFYING ALL OWNERS OF THIS DEFECT AND CORRECTING IT FOR THE SAFETY OF DRIVERS IN THEIR PRODUCT BUT ALSO DRIVERS IN OTHER AUTOS WHICH ARE NOW AT DANGER IF THIS VIABILITY CAUSES A CAMRY DRIVER TO COLLIDE WITH THEIR AUTO. THIS DEFECT EFFECTS ALL DRIVERS ON THE HIGHWAY NOT JUST THE TOYOTA DRIVERS. I HAVE BEEN TO AND CALLED TOYOTA SEVERAL TIMES PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE AND MY FEAR OF DRIVING. I HAVE SIMPLY BEEN ABLE TO GET NO RECOURSE FOR THIS DEFECT. I AM VERY AWARE OF THE COST TO FIX THIS DEFECT HOWEVER I FEEL THE COST OF EVERY LIF

TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 ENGINE CONSUMES EXCESSIVE OIL. TOYOTA ISSUED A TSB FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT BECAUSE MY CAR IS MORE THAN 10 YEARS OLD AND HAD OVER 150K MILES, IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE TSB. THEY ESTIMATE IT WILL COST $5000 TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH IS OUTRAGEOUS.

LARGE PARTS OF DASHBOARD MELTING OR EXTRUDING GLOSSY STICKY RESIDUE, CAUSING HAZARDOUS GLARE WHEN DRIVING. TOYOTA AWARE OF SITUATION AND EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR SOME MODELS FOR THIS CONDITION BUT NOT MY MODEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR FAILED TO FUNCTION AND THE DASHBOARD WAS DETERIORATING. THE OWNER WAS CONCERNED THAT THE DASHBOARD FAILURE COULD AFFECT THE STRUCTURAL INTEGRITY OF THE AIR BAG COMPONENTS. THE DEALER FROM WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WAS CONTACTED, BUT HAD NOT PROVIDED A MANUFACTURER CUSTOMER SUPPORT PROGRAM - LSC ZE6 (TOYOTA DASH PROBLEM MELTING CRACKING WARRANTY EXTENSION). THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD NEED TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE SEVERAL TIMES AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A CASE MANAGER TO RESPOND WITH A RESOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT DID NOT HAVE THE DEALER INFORMATION HANDY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE ENGINE HAS HIGH OIL AND FUEL CONSUMPTION. THE CONSUMPTION OF OIL IS TWO QUARTS A MONTH.

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING WHICH IS CAUSING A TERRIBLE GLARE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THE ROAD.I WAS TOLD IF IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE IT WOULD BE COVERED BUT SINCE THEY DIDN'T PUT IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE. ITS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, DUE TO THE GLARE REFLECTING FROM THE MELTING DASHBOARD MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE. HOW THIS WAS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE TO BEGIN WITH SURPRISES ME.

MY CAR IS BURNING 0IL. EVERY TWO WEEKS I AM PUTTING AT LEAST 4 TO 5 QUARTS OF OIL IN MY CAR AND IT IS NOT LEAKING ON THE GROUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE ABS ENGAGED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. GREEN'S TOYOTA OF LEXINGTON (630 E NEW CIRCLE RD, LEXINGTON, KY 40505, (859) 254-5751) DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ACCUMULATOR LEAKAGE AND THE ABS NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 119,000.

OVER TIME, MY DASHBOARD HAS MELTED AND HAS BECOME STICKY. I HAVE TRIED MY BEST TO DEAL WITH IT, BUT IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. IT CAUSES A REFLECTION OF MY DASHBOARD ON MY DRIVER'S WINDOW, MAKING IT HARD TO SEE WHEN I AM DRIVING (ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS SUNNY...AND I LIVE IN LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA...WHERE THE MAJORITY OF THE TIME IT IS SUNNY.) I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY CLAIM TO HAVE SENT OUT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE. THEY CLAIM THEY CAN'T FIX IT ANYMORE BECAUSE OF AN EXPIRED WARRANTY (WHICH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF...IF I WAS, I WOULD'VE FIXED IT ASAP). IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE DUE TO THEIR FAULTY MANUFACTURING.

RIGHT REAR PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT TIGHTENED UP ON A CHILD AND WOULD NOT RELEASE. WE HAD TO CUT THE SEAT BELT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT OIL LEAKED FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN THE ENGINE, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS VERY LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ED MORSE DELRAY TOYOTA (2800 S. FEDERAL HWY, DELRAY BEACH, FL) WHERE THE ENGINE GASKET WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

I PURCHASED A CAMRY FROM BOB (XXXX) IN 2007. THE CAR STARTED CONSUMING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL NOT LONG AFTER THE TOYOTA ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM LAUNCHED IN 2014. I DID NOT GET A NOTICE FROM TOYOTA. BOB (XXXX) INFORMED ME OF THE NEED TO RUN THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IN JULY 2015; WHICH WE DID. I WAS TOLD THE TEST "PASSED" EVEN THOUGH IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE CAR WAS BURNING A LOT OF OIL. THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON OVER & OVER AGAIN. I REQUESTED A 2ND TEST IN DEC 2015 AND I WAS TOLD AGAIN THAT THE CAR "PASSED" THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. FOR 3 YEARS I COMPLAINED TO BOB (XXXX) ABOUT THE SITUATION, INCLUDING THE CAR CHOKING WHEN I TRY TO ACCELERATE OR BRAKE; OIL PRESSURE LIGHT; ENGINE LIGHT; HAVING TO ADD OIL TO MY CAR UPON DRIVING IT FOR ABOUT 1000 MILES OR SO, ETC.. THIS ALL HAPPENED FROM 2015-2018. IN 2018, BOB (XXXX) TRIED TO TELL ME THAT MY CAR IS LEAKING OIL INSTEAD OF BURNING OIL. THIS WASN'T AN ACCURATE STATEMENT. SO, I WENT TO A TRUSTED INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO TOOK A DETAIL LOOK AT MY CAR AND CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR IS NOT LEAKING OIL AT ALL. I WENT BACK TO BOB (XXXX) & DEMANDED A 3RD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. AFTER MUCH ARGUING THEY AGREED TO IT. WE DID THE TEST AND IT FAILED IN DEC 2018. THIS CONFIRMED WHAT I KNEW ALL ALONG. YET THEY REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM TO THE POINT WHERE THE SERVICE MANAGER WAYNE (XXXX) REFUSED TO TAKE MY CALLS. THEY TELL ME THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED, WHICH IS VERY FITTING FOR THEM &TOYOTA. I CALLED TOYOTA INC. WHO ALSO REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING

THERE IS AN OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE AND TOYOTA IS SAYING IT IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ISSUE, THAT HAS EXPIRED AND THAT I AM GOING TO HAVE TO FIX IT AND PAY FOR IT ALL OUT OF POCKET. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL NOT A WARANTY ISSUE. IT'S NOT FAIR OR RIGHT AND THEY SHOULD STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTION ISSUES THAT ARE FLAWED. THIS IS A SAFTEY ISSUE BECAUSE THE LIGHT DOESN'T EVEN COME ON WHEN IT IS LOW, SO IF I DON'T CHECK OFTEN THEN I AM IN DANGER WHEN I AM DRIVING. I BOUGHT THE CAR TO DRIVE, NOT TO BECOME A MECHANIC.

HORRIBLE LOW-BEAM LIGHTING. TOYOTA RESPONSE IS "GIVE ME OVER $1,000 AND WE WILL REPLACE FIXTURES". I HAVE OWNED MANY CARS IN THE LAST 54 YEARS (ONE FOR 18 YRS) AND NEVER HAD HEADLIGHT PROBLEMS. TOYOTA OUGHT TO BE EMBARRASSED INTO AT LEAST REPLACING THEM AT COST. I'M GUESSING THE COATING ON THE LENS IS DEFECTIVE BECAUSE NOTHING ELSE HAS CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT, IT WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND LOWER BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT POWERED OFF AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO DRIVE AND BEGAN SHAKING. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND LATER TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PO171/02 SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. *JS

SO IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY MY WINDSHIELD THAT HAD NO CHIPS AND WAS IN PERFECT CONDITION. AND PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. I WAS SITTING IN MY CAR ABOUT TO GET OUT WHEN I WATCHED THE WINDSHIELD CRACK BY ITSELF INDEPENDENTLY NOTHING HITTING IT NO CHIPS OR IMPERFECTIONS TO MAKE IT CRACK NO SOUNDS NOTHING IT STARTED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN A SPIDERWEB FASHION AND CRACKED ALL THE WAY ACROSS MY WINDSHIELD AND KEEPS CONTINUING TO SPIDERWEB ACROSS THE ENTIRE WINDSHILD THERE WAS NO CHIPS INITIALLY NOTHING HIT IT NO PRESSURE AFTER TALKING TO SEVERAL PROFESSIONALS THEY ALSO CAN NOT SEE A REASON FOR THE CRACKED WINDSHIELD STATES IT LOOKS LIKE IT CRACKED FROM THE CENTER OUT. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL CAR

WHILE DRIVING, I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP. AFTER STOPPING QUICK, THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT TURNED ON FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS. I CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND IT TO BE 2.5 QUARTS LOW. MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS LESS THAN 2500 MILES AGO. EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION IS CAUSING A LOW OIL LIGHT AND POSSIBLE ENGINE FAILURE. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND UPDATED PARTS ARE AVAILABLE, BUT DUE TO MY VEHICLE BEING OVER 10 YEARS OLD, THE MANUFACTURER WILL NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR THIS PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW FROM THE DEALER WHO REGISTERED IT AND GAVE ME PAPERWORK LISTING MY ADDRESS ON ALL OF THE FORMS. I JUST RECENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM FOR THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR DEFECT. I HAD BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH IT FOR A FEW YEARS BUT SINCE I RARELY DRIVE DURING THE DAYTIME IT WASN'T AN ISSUE UNTIL MY SHIFT CHANGED. SO NOW IT'S BROKEN AND TODAY, YEARS LATER, TOYOTA TELLS ME THAT THE WARRANTY INFORMATION WAS SENT TO AN ADDRESS OTHER THAN THE ONE I HAVE LIVED SINCE I PURCHASED THIS CAR. SINCE I DIDN'T REGISTER THE CAR AND ALL OF MY PAPERWORK HAD MY THEN AND STILL ADDRESS ON IT, I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD HONOR THE WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY SENT IT TO AN ADDRESS THAT WASN'T MINE. THEY WILL NOT GIVE ME THE ADDRESS BUT REFERRED ME TO MY STATE' DMV, WHO ALSO WILL NOT GIVE ME THIS PHANTOM ADDRESS WHERE MY INFO WAS SENT. COLONIAL TOYOTA REGISTERED THE CAR FOR ME SO I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MISTAKES WERE MADE IN THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AND NO WAY OF GETTING THE INFORMATION. TOYOTA IS DOING WHAT ALL BIG COMPANIES DO, PASS THE MISTAKES THEY MADE TO THE CONSUMER. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANYTHING FROM ATOYOTA DEALER EVER AGAIN.

WATER PUMP REPLACED JANUARY 6, 2016 ( 69,307 MILES) AND JANUARY, 2019 (93,621 MILES)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS INOPERABLE. ADDITIONALLY, ON ONE OCCASION WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE TRUNK BECAME AJAR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

MY AUNT BOUGHT BRAND NEW 2007 CAMRY AND TRANSFER TO ME 2-2018. NOTICE THAT ENGINE SOUND NOT RIGHT. HAVE TO CHECK OIL EVERY WEEK. ENGINE BURNING OIL A LOT, HAVE TO PUT 1 QUART EVERY 1200 MILES, ONLY 67500 MILES AND NOW STARTING TO HEAR KNOCKING NOISE. CALL TOYOTA AND THEY SAID WARRANTY EXPIRE. REPAIR AT OWNER COST.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. TAKES ABOUT 1-2 QUARTS EVERY 1000 MILES, OTHERWISE I RUN OUT OF OIL AND IT STARTS TO SMELL LIKE OIL WHEN I DRIVE OR WHEN CAR IS RUNNING. I WAS HEADED ON A TRIP TODAY WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO DRIVE A LITTLE FUNNY AND IT STARTED TO SMELL LIKE OIL AGAIN. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND CHECK IT AND I WAS LOW ON OIL. I PUT MORE OIL IN THE CAR AND HEADED BACK ON MY TRIP. I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CRUISE KICKED OFF AND JOLTED THE CAR WHILE I WAS DRIVING 70MPH. AFTER THAT IT WAS HARD TO GET MY CAR TO SHIFT ABOVE THE 3RD RPM. CAR STILL HAS LESS THAN 150,000 ON IT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW THOUSAND MILES. IT HAS NO OIL LEAKS. THERE ARE NO LIGHTS THAT GO OFF, HAS HAD REGULAR AND SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE WITH RECORDS.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION

THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD STARTED TO BECOME DISFIGURED AND A LITTLE UNEVEN - ENTIRE DASH BECAME VERY STICKY - LIKE IT HAD PARTIALLY MELTED. INITIALLY THOUGHT SOMEONE MAY HAVE SPILLED SOMETHING BUT NOTICED ENTIRE DASH WAS THE SAME FROM LEFT TO RIGHT HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THIS WAS A MORE COMMON PROBLEM AND MAY AFFECT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG UNDERSTAND TOYOTA DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL BUT DID FIX THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE DASH IF CUSTOMERS COMPLAINED CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD DO? I CALLED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK AFTER 1-2 DAYS. THEY HAVE NEVER CALLED BACK

I HAVE CONTINUOUSLY HAD ISSUES WITH MY CARS IGNITION COILS AND VSC SYSTEM. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND VSC SYSTEM LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AND EVEN THOUGH I'VE SPENT THOUSANDS OF OD DOLLARS ON REPAIRS THE LIGHT CONTINUES TO POP UP EVEN WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND MULTIPLE REPAIRS. MY CAR MISFIRES AND TURNS OFF RANDOMLY THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE BUT I HAVE NO OTHER MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. THE CAR MISFIRES IN IDLE,WHILE DRIVING AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS AND IT WONT TURN ON SOMETIMES UNTIL I CONNECT JUMPER CABLES TO THE BATTERY. WHEN I CONNECT THE JUMPER CABLES I NEVER NEED AN EXTRA SOURCE OF POWER I SIMPLY CONNECT ONE END OF THE CABLES TO THE BATTERY AND A FEW SECONDS LATER IT ALL THE LIGHTS TURN ON AGAIN AND THE CAR RESTARTS THE WHOLE SYSTEM.
