2007 Toyota Camry complaints

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS DEVELOPED A SHINY,STICKY DASHBOARD. NOT ONLY IS IT STICKY BUT IT BECAUSE IT IS SO SHINY IT PRODUCES A GLARE SO SEEING THE ROAD BECOMES MORE DIFFICULT. THIS GLARE IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS IT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. I CALLED MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT EXCEPT REPLACE THE DASHBOARD AT MY EXPENSE. THEY STATED A FEW YEARS AGO THERE WAS A PROGRAM TO REPLACE THE DASHBOARDS AS THE WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED BUT SINCE MY PROBLEM HAPPENED AFTER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED I WAS OUT OF LUCK. WHY DIDN'T I GET NOTIFIED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY OR THE ISSUE WITH THE DASHBOARD? I HAVE HAD THIS CAR SINCE IT WAS NEW SO THEY HAD ALL OF MY INFORMATION IN THEIR DATABASE AND CONTACTING ME WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY EASY. I WAS GOING TO PASS THIS CAR DOWN TO MY DAUGHTER THAT JUST GOT HER LICENSE, BUT I AM HESITANT TO LET HER DRIVE THE CAR AS THE GLARE MAKES IT DANGEROUS TO DRIVE. I DON'T WANT TO PUT MY DAUGHTER IN AN UNSAFE VEHICLE.

THE CONDENSATION ON MY HEADLIGHTS ARE HORRIBLE. I HAVE HAD THEM CLEANED NUMEROUS TIMES BUT IT KEEPS COMING BACK. ALSO, MY HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM ARE INEFFECTIVE AND I CANNOT SEE ANYTHING WHEN I'M DRIVING AT NIGHT. I HAVE TO USE MY HIGH BEAM TO GET ANY KIND OF LIGHTING TO SEE WHERE I'M GOING AT NIGHT

MY TOYOTA DID NOT EXHIBIT THE STICKY DASHBOARD UNTIL JUNE OF 2017. I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL ONLY WENT UNTIL MAY 0F 2017 AND WAS REFUSED BY TOYOTA. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT IT WAS A DEFINITE FACTORY DEFECT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED. NOW I HAVE THIS CONTINOUS GLARE WHICH AFFECTS BOTH DAY AND NIGHT VISABILITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISORS FAILED. THE PASSENGER SIDE SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY DETACHED AND THE SUN VISOR COULD NOT BE USED. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR ASSEMBLY DID NOT ALLOW THE SUN VISOR TO REMAIN IN ONE POSITION TO PROTECT AGAINST THE SUN. BOTH SUN VISORS WERE REPLACED BY A MANUFACTURER WARRANTED REPAIR APPROXIMATELY FOUR YEARS AGO, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SUDDENLY OIL CONSUMPTION HAS GONE UP DRASTICALLY. USING ADDITIONAL QUART OF OIL EVERY 750 MILES. TALK WITH TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVE,ACCORDING TO THEM "I AM OFF MY OWN AS BECAUSE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED."

I AM COMPLAINING ABOUT MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE CAR. THIS CAR HAS A DASHBOARD PROBLEM THAT CAN CAUSE SEVERE ACCIDENTS. ITS DASHBOARD IS BECOMING STICKY, SMELLY AND SHINY AS A MIRROR. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN DEVELOPING FOR YEARS AND IT IS GETTING WORSE. WHEN I CALL A TOYOTA DEALER ABOUT 3-4 YEARS AGO TO ASK WHETHER THERE WAS A RECALL OR OTHER SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND THEY COULD DO NOTHING. THIS YEAR, THE PROBLEM IS BECOMING SEVERE SINCE THE SHINY DASHBOARD OFTEN BLINDS MY EYES AND I ALMOST HIT A WALKER. I GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND TONS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINS AND SOME LUCKY COSTUMERS GOT FREE REPLACEMENT. SO, I CALLED THE SAME DEALER AGAIN ASKING ABOUT THE POLICY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL SEVERAL YEARS AGO, BUT IT EXPIRED TWO YEARS AGO, SO THEY COULD DO NOTHING. THIS ANSWER IS RIDICULOUS CONSIDERING I CALLED THEM BEFORE. I THEN CALL THE HEADQUARTER. THE OPERATOR TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NOT A RECALL, BUT AN EXTENDED 10-YEAR WARRANTEE. SINCE MY CAR HAS BEEN MORE THAN TEN YEARS, TOYOTA WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DASHBOARD UNLESS I HAVE WRITTEN EVIDENCE THAT I CONTACTED TOYOTA BEFORE ABOUT THE DASHBOARD. MY COMPLAINS ARE AS FOLLOWS: (1)THIS DASHBOARD PROBLEM SHOULD BE A RECALL SINCE IT CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS ACCIDENTS. AS MENTIONED, THE SPECULAR REFLECTION FROM THE SHINY DASHBOARD CAN BLIND THE DRIVERS AND MAKE THE DRIVING VERY DANGEROUS. TOYOTA MUST HAVE KNOWN THIS PROBLEM A LONG TIME AGO AND SHOULD NOTICE ALL COSTUMERS TO CHANGE THE DASH

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY'S WERE INSTALLED WITH A SUN VISOR THAT WAS LATER RECALLED DUE TO A DEFECT IN THE INNER PLASTIC BODY. ... MAKING THE ARM UNABLE TO HOLD THE VISOR IN PLACE EFFECTIVELY, OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW OF THE DRIVER. I WENT TO TOYOTA WHO SAID THAT THE RECALL IS EXPIRED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FULL PRICE. I NEVER RECEIVED INFORMATION REGARDING THE RECALL.

THE DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND MELTING AND IT PUTS A GLARE IN FRONT WINDSHIELD DAY AND NIGHT WHICH MAKE IT HARD TO SEE. I BOUGHT CAR FROM ITS ORIGINAL OWNER AND IT WAS DOING THIS WHEN I GOT IT. I THOUGHT IT WAS BECAUSE IT WAS RECENTLY DETAILED, AND COME TO FIND OUT, THIS IS A PERMANENT ISSUE.

AFTER THE CAR ENGINE ODOMETER HIT 70.000 THE CAR STARTED TO BURN OIL MORE THAN NORMAL. I TOOK THE CAR FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE CAR HAD VERY LITTLE OIL. SINCE THEN I HAD TO ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGE AT 78.000 AND 2 QUARTS OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGE AT 83.000 MILES.

DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND CRACKED IN MULTIPLE PLACES MUCH LIKE THAT ON THE SIENNA WHEN IT HAD A PROBLEM. IT IS OUR SON'S CAR THAT WE DROVE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A WHILE SO WE DO NOT KNOW THE DATE THE PROBLEM STARTED.

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2007 CAMRY LE IS BURNING ABOUT 1QT/600 OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS IN A PARKING LOT WHEN I CHECKED IT. TOYOTA ADMITS THIS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE AS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND STILL NOT ISSUING A RECALL. I HAVE TO ADD OIL REGULARLY BETWEEN OIL CHANGES SO THAT MY CAR DOESN'T GET STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY.

HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION, I BOUGHT IT FROM A DEALERSHIP. FIX IS 5000-7000$, TOYOTA IS NOT WILLING TO FIX SINCE IT SURPASSED THE WARRANTY TIME PERIOD. I AM COMPLETELY HELPLESS. IT DRINKS OIL LIKE AND I CANT SEE ANY SIGNS ON THE GROUND.

THE DASH ON MY 2007 CAMRY IS STICKY AND SOFT. IT CREATES A GLARE THAT AT TIMES MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. IT ACCUMULATES DUST AND DIRT. I CONTACTED TOYOTA REGARDING ANY RECALL AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NOTHING. IN ADDITION BOTH VISORS HAVE FAILED WHICH ALSO APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR OF VEHICLE.

I HAD JUST SLOWLY TURNED RIGHT INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PUBLIC PARKING GARAGE AND WAS COASTING TO THE END OF THE SPOT WHEN MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I HIT THE BRAKE, BUT THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH TIME TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE IT CRASHED INTO A LARGE CONCRETE PILLAR AT THE END OF THE PARKING SPOT. THERE WAS EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT BUMPER, GRILL AND HOOD OF THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY CHECKED, BUT THERE WEREN'T ANY OBJECTS AROUND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE FLOOR MATS WERE IN PLACE. TOYOTA SENT AN INSPECTOR. THE EDR REPORT IS ATTACHED. TOYOTA SAID THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKE OR ACCELERATOR. THEY WOULD NOT HOWEVER ANSWER MY QUESTIONS ABOUT THE EDR DATA, AND SPECIFICALLY HOW, IF THE CAR WAS NOT ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN, I COULD HAVE BEEN DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, AND WHILE THE ACCELERATOR REMAINED DEPRESSED, SIMULTANEOUSLY DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS THE EDR DATA SHOWED. NOTE THAT MY CAR WAS UP-TO-DATE WITH ALL RECALLS WHEN THE INCIDENT HAPPENED.

"TAKATA RECALL" WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 CAMRY I'VE ALWAYS NOTICED THAT MY DASHBOARD WAS EXTREMELY STICKY AND SEEMED TO BE MELTING. MY WIFE NOTICED AND SAID IT WASN'T NORMAL SHE GOOGLE IT AND SAID THAT IT WAS A RECALL ON THE DASHBOARDS BEING DEFECTED. I'M TRYING TO FIND OUT WHAT STEP DO I NEED TO TAKE IN RECTIFYING THIS ISSUE.

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE V6 BRAKES FAILED TO DEPLOY. ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK, I PRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT, NO BRAKES! I PUMPED THE BRAKES AND ALL I HEARD WAS HISSING AIR SOUND. I BELIEVE IT IS THE BRAKE BOOSTER FROM THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS DESCRIBING THE SAME ISSUE. I HAD NO WARNING LIGHTS OF ANY KIND. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A LIFE ENDING EVENT. TOYOTA NEEDS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE. WHERE IS THE RECALL?

TOYOTA CASE #1809103728. DASHBOARD IS MELTING. MOTHER NEVER RECEIVED THE NOTIFICATION IN THE MAIL AND WAS NOT ADVISED WHEN SHE BROUGH THE CAR INTO THE TOYOTA DEALER. SPOKE TO NATASHA RAMIREZ, OPERATIONS SUPERVISOR AT TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS AND SHE ADVISED THERE IS NOTHING THEY AN DO. THEY ARE ALLOWING DANGEROUS VEHICLE ON THE ROAD AND ARE NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY OR ACTION TO FIX THE SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING AND CRASHED INTO THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE OF A FORD TRUCK. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED HEAD INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION; HOWEVER, THE DRIVER DIED AT THE HOSPITAL. THE DRIVER OF THE TRUCK SUSTAINED UNKNOWN INJURIES. THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED AT THE SCENE, BUT THERE WAS NO FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

IN 2013, I SUSPECTED THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH OIL CONSUMPTION & ASKED THE MB SERVICE CENTER TO BEGIN INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE. AT THAT TIME, THE WARRANTY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WAS STILL ACTIVE. I RETURNED AFTER DRIVING 1,000-1,200 MILES & WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO ASCERTAIN WHETHER THERE WAS A TRUE ISSUE AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME $800 TO OPEN THE ENGINE. I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. IN EARLY 2016, I RECEIVED THE T-SB-0158-14 SERVICE BULLETIN FROM TOYOTA NOTIFYING ME THAT I COULD TAKE THE CAR IN TO HAVE THIS EXACT ISSUE RESOLVED AT NO COST. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO THE CULVER CITY LOCATION, BUT I RETURNED 3 HOURS LATER TO FIND THAT NO WORK HAD BEEN DONE. A MEMBER OF THE SERVICE TEAM ADVISED THAT THERE WAS AN OIL LEAK THAT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED BEFORE THEY COULD BEGIN THE CONSUMPTION TEST. THIS IS MY FIRST ISSUE WITH TOYOTA'S SERVICE. TOYOTA SHIFTED THE RESPONSIBILITY TO HAVE THIS OIL LEAK FIXED ON TO ME EVEN THOUGH I MADE THEM AWARE OF AN OIL RELATED ISSUE MORE THAN 2 YEARS PRIOR. A KNOWLEDGEABLE SERVICE CENTER MEMBER WOULD HAVE KNOWN THAT DEFECTIVE PISTONS AND RINGS IS A DIRECTLY RELATED CAUSE OF A LEAK. BEING THAT I WAS NOT A KNOWLEDGEABLE CONSUMER AT THAT TIME, THE SERVICE CENTER WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THIS RESPONSIBILITY ON TO ME. I HAD THE OIL LEAK REPAIRED AND ATTEMPTED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE ADDRESSED A 3RD TIME WHEN I CALLED TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT IN NOVEMBER 2016. THE PERSON WHO ANSWERED THE PHONE ASKED WHAT THE REASON WAS FOR MY VISIT. I EXPLAINED THAT I WANTED TO C

EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL USAGE. 1 PLUS QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES APPROX. ENGINE HAS APPROX 91000 MILES ON IT.

MY TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY IS LEAKING EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, THERE WAS A RECALL , BUT I DID NOT GET NOTIFICATION OF THIS PROBLEM ,UNTIL I WAS ONLINE SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS TO FIND OUT WHY MY CAR, WAS REQUIRING SO MUCH OIL, I SAW A ARTICLE WHICH STATED THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, I NOTIFIED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS, THEY DENIED MY CLAIM. I EVEN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR MAR JACOBS IN DURHAM N.C. MAR JACOBS STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO EXCEPT TRY TO GE ME TO BUY A NEW CAR, NO THANKS , I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED, BECAUSE THIS AFFECTS MY ENGINE AND IF WANT TO SALE MY CAR THE VALUE GOES DOWN, BECAUSE OF THIS MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I AM CONSTANTLY BUYING OIL FOR MY CAR EVERY WEEK , WHICH ADDS UP IN PRICE. I WOULD LIKE OR TOYOTA HONOR THE RECALL , ITS NOT MY FAULT THAT THIS HAPPENED TO MY CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WAS FAULTY, FELL DOWN, AND BLOCKED THE CONTACT'S VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED AND THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE DEALER (JONES JUNCTION TOYOTA, 1508 BEL AIR ROAD #2000, BEL AIR, MD, 410-879-6400) AND THE MANUFACTURER CONFIRMED THAT THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 78,000. **TR CONSUMER STATED SINCE OUR ORGINAL TELEPHONE CALL WITH YOUR OFFICE, WE HAD THE BROKE VISOR REPLACED. WE HAD NO CHOICE SINCE WE COULDN'T SEE PROPERLY WITH THE VISOR IN THE WAY-THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. ATTACHED IS THE RECEIPT. THE DEALER GAVE US A SMALL DISCOUNT FROM THE REGULAR PRICE, BUT WE FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED BY TOYOTA AT NO COST TO US. UPDATED 10/30/18*JB

HAS MELTING DASHBOARD, EXTREMELY SHINY IN SUNLIGHT OR ANY OTHER LIGHT. DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF FRONT WINDOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SPEEDOMETER GAUGE FAILED TO PROVIDE THE CORRECT READING AND THE ABS CONTROL MODULE AND EMERGENCY WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO THE COOLING COMPONENT OF THE AIR CONDITIONER FAILED TO FUNCTION. FURTHERMORE, WHILE AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO POWER DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

TOYOTA DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THEIR "WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT" TEST ON MY CAR IN 2016 TO SEE IF IT QUALIFIED FOR THEIR KNOWN OIL CONSUMPTION COVERAGE AND REPAIR. IT DID NOT SEE THEIR CRITERIA. NOW MY CAR IS CONSUMING 1 QUART OF OIL NEARLY EVERY 1000 MILES AND THEY WILL NOT COVER THE PROBLEM.

DASHBOARD IS EXTREMELY STICKY AND REFLECTIVE WHEN THE SUN HITS IT CAUSING LITTLE TO NO VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING

TOYOTA HAS ADMITTED ON 2011 IN ITS TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT THE ENGINE DEFECT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY EXHIBITS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION DUE TO THE DESIGN DEFECT OF THE 2AZ-FE ENGINE. IT REQUIRES A PISTON ASSEMBLY CHANGE TO MINIMIZE OIL CONSUMPTION HOWEVER THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO REPAIR IT AT THEIR OWN COST, THIS IS A VERY SIGNIFICANT REPAIR COSTING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX. THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE DUE TO AN ARBITRARY 150,000 MILE LIMIT AND A VERY LIMITED TIME WINDOW BETWEEN 2015 TO 2016, AFTER I HAD ALREADY SPENT MONEY ON REPAIRS. THIS ALSO DIMINSHES THE VALUE OF MY CAR AND MORE IMPORTANTLY EXPOSES OUR FAMILY TO SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUES. THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO LOSE OIL, AND THE ENGINE BECOMES COMPLETELY DEPLETED OF OIL AT THE TIME OF AN OIL CHANGE (EVERY 3,000 MILES) WHICH CAN LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE IN A MOVING VEHICLE AND POTENTIAL INJURY AND LOSS OF LIFE. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS DEFECT AND TOYOTA REFUSES TO FIX.

ABS CONTROL MODULE NEEDS REPLACING. BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT COME ON,NO A/C AND SPEEDOMETER GOES TO 0. BRAKE LIGHTS DON'T WORK DURING EPISODES WHICH COULD CAUSE YOU TO GET REAR ENDED. THESE EPISODES OCCUR WHILE IDLING AND DRIVING.

TAKATA RECALL..MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS DEVELOPED A SHINY STICKY COAT OVER SEVERAL MONTHS WHICH COVERS THE ENTIRE DASH. THE SHININESS OBSTRUCTS DRIVING VISIBILITY AND I HAVE FOUND NOTHING ON THE MARKET TO CLEAN THIS AREA. THE CAR ORIGINALLY CAME FROM FLORIDA AND WAS GARAGE KEPT WHEN I PURCHASED. SEEMS LIKE SOME SORT OF MANUFACTURER DEFECT.

THE DASHBOARD OF MY CAMRY IS MELTING AND GIVING OFF FUMES THAT WE CAN SMELL AND COULD BE HAZARDOUS TO OUR HEALTH. WE HAVE DEVELOPED A COUGHS SINCE THIS HAPPENED. THE FUMES ARE COATING THE INSIDE OF OUR WINDSHIELD AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA USA AND TOYOTA JAPAN AND THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT.THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN WE HAD DIFFICULTY SEEING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD.

ALMOST A COLLISION. I HAVE A DASH THAT IS STICKY AND THE GLARE FROM THE SUN REFLECTING OFF THE STICKY DASH IS A VERY BAD SAFETY HAZARD. ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS I COULD HAVE HAD AN ACCIDENT. IT EVEN HAPPENS ACCIDENT NIGHT WHEN THE STREET LIGHTS REFLECT OFF THE DASH. I HAVE HAD THE CAT IN MOTION AND STABLE AND HAVE HAD NEAR ACCIDENTS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THERE IS ANYTHING I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY. BIT THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED BY THE MAKER. I HOPE AND PRAY IT DOES NOT TAKE A DEATH OR SEVERAL DEATHS BEFORE ACTION IS TAKEN TO GET THIS MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM FIXED. THANK YOU. (XXXXX).

MELTING DASHBOARD. BOUGHT A USED 2007 CAMRY. THOUGHT THE DASHBOARD WAS JUST OVERDONE WITH ARMOUR ALL. FOUND OUT THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING CAUSING MULTIPLE PROBLEMS BUT THE DANGEROUS GLARE IS THE BIGGEST CONCERN. CALLED TOYOTA. THEY SAID THERE WAS A TIME LIMIT ON THIS DEFECT BEING FIXED. THEY HAVE ADMITTED THIS IS A DEFECT BUT WONT FIX IT.

II HAVE A 2007 CAMRY THAT HAS A DEFECTIVE SUN VISOR AS IT NOW HANGS AND OBSTRUCTS MY VISIBILITY. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND I WOULD EXPECT TOYOTA TO HONOR IT AND FIX IT WITHOUT CHARGE TO THE CONSUMER.

STICKY DASHBOARD, GLARE. DRIVING HAZARD, OBSTRUCTION OF DRIVER'S VIEW. KENNY KENT TOYOTA DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. GAVE ME 800-331-4331 TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE. SPOKE TO 2 PEOPLE. I DID NOT RECEIVE WARRANTY NOTIFICATION. CANNOT DRIVE CAR WHEN SUN IS SHINING. TOLD I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR DASH REPLACEMENT.

TAKATA RECALL SUN VISORS FALLING DOWN

DASH BOARD IS EXTREMELY STICKY. IT CAN NOT BE CLEANED OR TOUCHED WITH OUT STICKING TO IT OR GOUGING OUT A CHUNK OF IT. EVEN IN THE COLD WEATHER IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN.

THE BREAK LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT COME ONE AND ALL GAUGES STOP WORKING AND JUST START JUMPING AROUND. THE AC DOESN'T WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THIS HAPPENS WHILE IDOL AND WHILE DRIVING. IF DRIVING, I CAN'T TELL HOW FAST I'M GOING BECAUSE THE GAUGES STOP WORKING. THIS HAPPENS AT RANDOM TIMES THEN GOES BACK TO NORMAL BUT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY.

TAKATA RECALL STICKY DASHBOARD, CAN'T SEE WITH A BAD GLARE

THE DASHBOARD IN MY CAMRY IS TACKY AND STICKY. I HAVE THE SERVICE BULLETIN BUT THEY ARE TELLING ME IT IS EXPIRED. IT IS REALLY A BAD ISSUE. TOYOTA HAS MADE BILLIONS FROM SELLING CARS IN AMERICA ALONE AND THEY ALLOWED DEFECTIVE MATERIALS TO USED IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THEIR CARS AND THAT IS NOT FAIR TO THE CONSUMER. THIS SHOULD BE A TOTAL RECALL IN PLACE OF A SERVICE BULLETIN. THIS COULD BE A SAFETY HAZARD SHOULD SOMEONE COME IN CONTACT WITH THIS DEFECTIVE MATERIAL IN A CRASH.

INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILURE....WHILE DRIVING BRAKE AND ABS LIGHTS CUT ON AND SPEEDOMETER TACHOMETER TEMPERATURE GAUGE GAS GUAGE AND ODOMETER QUIT WORKING. THE AC ALSO BLOWS HOT AIR AND CAR SHAKES WHEN STOPPING OCCASIONALLY.THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR MONTHS AND STARTED AROUND 170000 MILES. DEALER WANTS TO CHARGE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIND PROBLEM. THAT'S HALF OF THE VALUE OF THE CAR. IT'S NOT WORTH THAT MUCH MONEY TO FIX. TOYOTA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL FOR THIS. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN

THE DASHBOARD GLARE AND STICKY FALLING APART CONDITION IS OBVIOUSLY AN ISSUE. WE WERE NEVER INFORMED THAT TOYOTA WAS REPLACING THESE DASHBOARDS. I HAVE A 2007 CAMRY WITH ONLY 80,000 MILES ON IT AND WANT TO HAVE THE DASHBOARD REPLACED. OBVIOUSLY THEY KNOW IT WAS DANGEROUSLY SHINY AND STICKY AS THEY REPLACE THEM FOR 10 YEARS. THE NATIONAL TOYOTA PEOPLE TOLD ME IT WAS TOO LATE FOR THEM TO HELP ME EVEN THOUGH THEY KNOW IT'S AN ISSUE! WHAT IF ANYTHING CAN I DO?

2007 CAMRY STARTED CONSUMING OIL LIKE CRAZY AROUND 100,000. COOLANT ALSO STARTING TO DISAPPEAR.

THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR BROKE, IT IS CAUSING PROBLEMS WITH SEEING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING UPHILL WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED TO DISENGAGE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CASE NUMBER: 1803150976 WAS OPENED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 136,000. *TT CONSUMER STATED THE CRUISE CONTROL REQUESTED POWER, ELECTRONIC FAILURE BETWEEN CRUISE, ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION, CAUSING ENGINE RPM TO ACCELERATE WITH NO POWER FROM TRANSMISSION. I HIT BRAKE PEDAL TO KEEP ENGINE FROM BEING DAMAGED. FEW SECONDS LATER TRANSMISSION THUMPED/CLUNKED. TRANSMISSION DAMAGED FROM THAT POINT. I DROVE CAR WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL TILL NEW TRANSMISSION WAS INSTALLED. UPDATED 10/15/18*JB

AROUND 100,000 MILES I NOTICED MY CAMRY ENGINE WAS CONSUMING MORE OIL THAN IT DID PREVIOUSLY. NOW IT'S CONSUMING AROUND A QUART EVERY 1200 MILES.

AIR COMPRESSOR NO GOOD HAD IT REPLACED AT THE DEALER BUT NOT WORKING, REPLACED ENGINE DUE TO OVER USE OF OIL DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS NORMAL USE

OIL LIGHT WAS FLASHING, SO I TOOK TO MY MECHANIC. HE SAID THE OIL HAD USED 3QTS IN LESS THAN A MONTH (LAST OIL CHANGE) AND THAT THE COOLANT WAS BONE DRY. IT TURNS OUT ITS A HEAD GASKET/ENGINE ISSUE. HE LET ME KNOW HE HAD MULTIPLE 2007 CAMRYS WITH THIS ISSUE, AND THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS AN OPEN 'CAMPAIGN'? OR RECALL. I HAVE LEFT A MESSAGE FOR THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING, A GLARE FROM THE MELTED DASHBOARD MADE IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED.
