TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ATTEMPTING TO MERGE INTO A PARKING SPACE AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND CRASHED INTO A BRICK WALL. THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE BUILDING AND TO THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO HER NECK AND SOUGHT MEDICAL ATTENTION FROM HER DOCTOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO BODY REPAIR SHOP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

I HAVE A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SE. AT AROUND 5,000 MILES WHEN IT WAS TIME TO TAKE IT IN FOR SERVICE, OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATION ETC. I HAD A TYPE OF SQUEAKING CRACKLING NOISE THAT I WOULD HEAR WHEN PULLING IN AND OUT OF DRIVEWAY. I TOOK IT IN AND TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT KNEW RIGHT AWAY WHAT IT WAS. IT WAS THE SUPPORTS FOR THE SUNROOF THAT NEEDED TO BE FIXED. THEY ADVISED THAT THE NOISE WOULD ONLY GET LOUDER AND LOUDER. THEY HAD IT THERE FOR TWO DAYS GLUING/BONDING SUPPORTS. ON AUGUST 10, 2011 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION. I LOOKED AT ALL MY GLASS WINDOWS AND DIDN'T NOTICE WHAT HAD UNTIL GLASS WAS FLYING ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR. I PULLED OVER AND THAT IS WHEN I SAW MY SUNROOF GLASS BROKEN. THE STRANGE THING ABOUT THE GLASS WAS THAT IT LOOKED A VOLCANO. IT WAS SHATTERED FROM THE OUTER PART OF THE SUNROOF GLASS TO THE MIDDLE. ALMOST LIKE THERE WAS PRESSURE BUILT UP AND IT ONLY HAD ONE WAY OF SHOOTING UP AND OUT. I CALLED TOYOTA TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THAT DAY. I WENT IN THAT AFTERNOON AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING I JUST WROTE TO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT. I ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE WORK ORDER HISTORY HAD WHERE THEY FIXED THE SUPPORTS ON THE SUNROOF/ HE SAID THEY WOULD LOOK AT THE CAR TOMORROW AND LET ME KNOW. I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM THEM THE NEXT DAY STATING THAT I HAD TO GET A HOLD OF MY INSURANCE CLAIM ADJUSTER SO THEY COULD GO LOOK AT DAMAGES. HE HAD TALKED TO TOYOTA WARRANTY DEPARTMENT AND THEY CAME TO A CONCLUSION THAT THEY WERE NOT GOING TO C

THE WINDOWS CONSISTENTLY STICK WHEN IN THE UP POSITION. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PUT THE WINDOW DOWN. MANY TIMES THE POWER WINDOW BUTTON HAS TO BE FORCED TO GET THE WINDOW DOWN. IN ADDITION, THERE IS A RESIDUE THAT KEEPS APPEARING ON THE TOP OF THE WINDOW WHICH SITS ON A RUBBER SEAL. THE RUBBER SEAL AT THE TOP OF THE WINDOW IS BEING WORN. CONCERN: IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY IF THE WINDOW NEEDS TO BE OPENED IT MAY FAIL TO OPEN.

I BOUGHT A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY TWO AND A HALF MONTHS AGO--PROBLEM IS THE REAR WINDOW DURING NIGHT DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH MANY CAR HEADLIGHTS HITTING THE WINDOW AND THE REARVIEW(MIRROR-- THE IMAGE ON THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS LIKE VIEWING A WET SPIDER WEB WITH A SCINTILLATING GRID BECAUSE OF THE WIRES EMBEDDED IN THE GLASS,(WHETHER FOR DEFROST OR RADIO RECEPTION IDO NOT KNOW) THIS GRID IN THE REAR WINDOW CAUSES A DISTORTED IMAGE --IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE THE IMAGE SUFFERS FROM 'IMAGE STATIC' WHICH CAUSES THE DRIVER TO SORT OUT THE HEADLIGHTS FROM THE 'STATIC'--IT IS VERY TIRESOME DRIVINGAT NIGHT ON THE FREEWAY--TRY IT AND YOU SHOULD SEE THERE IS SOMETHING NOT RIGHT--I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS IN OTHER CARS--IT IS UNSAFE, THE WINDOW SHOULD NOT BREAK UP THE LIGHT COMING THROUGH IT -VERY DISTRACTING. *TR

AS A RESULT, SHE CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED.

AS I TURN TO SEE IF THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE PARK POSTION IT WAS AND I AM TERRIFIED TO HAVE THIS CAR AT HOME MY DAUGHTER WAS IN THE AREA A FEW MINUTES BEFORE AND SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE CAR IF SHE WAS STILL THERE. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA AND TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO TAKE A LOOK, AND THE ONLY THING THEY CAN DO IS TRY AND RECREATE THE PROBLEM IF IT DOES NOT DO THE SAME THING WHEN THEY TRY AND RECREATE IT THEN IT WILL BE CLOSED AND DEEMS NOT AN ISSSUE. THIS IS AN ISSUE AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH WHAT HAPPEND. *TT

ON A HOT DAY WHILE PARKED, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OF MY 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY DEVELOPED A VERY LARGE CRACK. *TR

ON MY TOYOTA CAMRY '07 XLE MY PASSENGER'S SUN VISOR STARTED TO FAIL TO STAY UPRIGHT. BROKE AND FELL OFF IT'S HINGE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THERE'S NO WARRANTY OR RECALL. CAR ONLY HAS 31000 MILES. WHILE DOING RESEARCH, ENCOUNTERED THAT IS A CURRENT INCIDENT AMONG THIS CAR OWNERS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER STRIKING THE GEAR SELECTOR, THE GEAR SHIFTER WOULD ERRONEOUSLY SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL BECAUSE THE GEAR SELECTOR WAS NOT DESIGNED WITH A SWITCH TO ENGAGE. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. IN ADDITION, THE SIZE AND LENGTH OF THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE HEAD REST SIGNIFICANTLY OBSTRUCTED THE VISIBILITY OF THE DRIVER.

EXPERIENCED A COARSE SHIFTING OF TRANSMISSION DURING UPSHIFT AND DOWNSHIFT ESPECIALLY AROUND 20 MPH AND BETWEEN 35-37MPH. ON MORE THAN ONCE OCCASION I HAVE EXPERIENCED A LOUD THUMP NOISE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AS THE CAR IS SLOWING DOWN AND IS IN PROCESS OF DOWNSHIFTING AROUND 20MPH. OTHER TIMES SIMILAR BEHAVIOR HAS OCCURRED AT SPEEDS OF 35-37MPH. *TR

2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. GOING UP HILL ON AN INTERSECTION WHEN THE CONSUMERS VEHICLE WAS HIT ON THE FRONT SIDE ( PASSENGER) AND PASSENGER DOOR.

BRAND NEW 2011 CAMRY, 4 CYL, 19 MPG CITY, 21 MPG HIGHWAY AFTER MULTIPLE REPEATED MEASUREMENTS. DRIVING IN MANUAL MODE DOES NOT HELP AS THE MANUAL MODE IS VERY MISLEADING ON THE STEPTRONIC AS WELL. *TR

WHILE BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED BEYOND MY CONTROL. THE CAR ACCELERATED ACROSS THE STREET AND ONTO THE SIDEWALK AND CRASHED INTO THE FENCE OF A SCHOOLYARD ACROSS THE STREET FROM MY HOUSE. WE NARROWLY MISSED CHILDREN PLAYING. THE BACK OF THE CAR IS TOTALED. THANKFULLY, NO ONE WAS HURT. THE CAR IS NOW LOCATED IN A BODY SHOP SUGGESTED BY GEICO, MY INSURANCE CARRIER. WE ARE ASKING THEM NOT TO PROCEED WITH REPAIRS UNTIL WE CONTACT THIS AGENCY AND TOYOTA AMERICA. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 55-60 MPH IN A SUNNY DAY, THE FRONT WINDSHIELD OF TOYOTA CAMRY 2011 ON THE DRIVER SIDE SUDDENLY CRACKED FROM UPPER LEFT CORNER AND GRADUALLY EXTENDED TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD.

MY WIFE AND I ARE RETIRED IN FLORIDA. WE PARKED OUR 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WITH KEYLESS IGNITION IN OUR GARAGE AND BROUGHT THE KEY FOB WITH US INTO OUR HOME. MY WIFE EITHER DID NOT PUSH THE ENGINE OFF BUTTON HARD ENOUGH OR FORGOT TO PUSH THE ENGINE OFF BUTTON TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE. WE DID NOT HEAR THE 3 SHORT BEEPS TELLING US THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING AND THE KEY FOB WAS REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE GARAGE IS ATTACHED TO OUR HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT RUNNING IN OUR CLOSED GARAGE. CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES ENTERED OUR HOME CAUSING HEADACHES, NAUSEA, AND LETHARGY. OUR HOME CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTOR SOUNDED AN ALARM. WE INVESTIGATED AND FOUND THAT WE LEFT THE VEHICLE RUNNING IN THE GARAGE FOR 90 MINUTES. THE GARAGE TEMPERATURE WAS OVER 100(F) DEGREES. THERE WAS A LARGE POOL OF WATER UNDER THE CAR FROM CONDENSATION FROM THE CAR AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR. WE WERE SICKENED BY THE CARBON MONOXIDE FUMES AND CAME CLOSE TO LOSING OUR LIVES. THE KEYLESS IGNITION OPTION IS TOO DANGEROUS. THERE NEEDS TO BE A CHANGE IN DESIGN THAT TURNS OFF THE ENGINE WHEN THE KEY FOB LEAVES THE VEHICLE AND THE ENGINE OFF BUTTON IS NOT DEPRESSED.

BLUETOOTH DOES NOT WORK. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FOR THE LAST THREE MONTHS HE SMELLED AN ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN HE TURNED THE AIR CONDITIONER/HEAT OFF. AFTER A WHILE HE BECAME SICK AND WAS HOSPITALIZED, BUT THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT CAUSED HIM TO BECOME SICK. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER WHO ADVISED HIM THAT THE FILTER UNDERNEATH THE GLOVE BOX MAY NEED TO BE CHANGED. THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE, SMELL THE ODOR AND A TECHNICIAN FROM THE FACTORY WAS NOTIFIED. WHEN THE TECHNICIAN INSPECTED THE VEHICLE THEY ADVISED HIM THAT THEY COULD NOT LOCATE WHERE THE ODOR WAS CAME FROM; HOWEVER, HE ADDED A SPECIAL FILTER TO THE VEHICLE TO KEEP THE ODOR OUT. WITHIN A FEW WEEKS HE SMELLED THE STRONG ODOR AGAIN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

JUST 5 SECOND AFTER PULLING OUT FROM PARKING SPACE, WHILE GOING AROUND THE SCHOOL BUS AND TRYING TO AVOID THE CAR GOING TOWARD ME, PUSHED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE CAR SPEED UP AT WHOLE POWER AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP IT. IT FILED APPROXIMATELY 90 FEET REACHING SPEED AT LEAST 50 MPH IN APPROXIMATELY 1-2 SECOND. I WAS TRYING TO PUSH THE PEDAL TO STOP IT, AND AT THE SAME TIME TRYING TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF ME, I MANAGED TO JUMP ON A CURB AND EVENTUALLY STOPPED AFTER HITTING A BUILDING AND AFTER MY CAR FLIPPED ON THE DRIVER SIDE. I STRONGLY BELIEVE SOMETHING, INSIDE THE CAR (EITHER MECHANICAL OR AUTOMATIC SYSTEM) PREVENTED ME STOPPING THE CAR TIMELY. THERE WAS NO INJURY, BUILDING WERE DAMAGED JUST SLIGHTLY, MY CAR WAS DESTROYED , BUT IT HAS A FULL COVERAGE. THE WHOLE CRASH WAS TAPPED BY A SECURITY CAMERA. IT CLEARLY SHOWS THE ACCELERATION OF THE CAR, WHICH EVERYBODY, WHO WATCHED IT, BELIEVE COULDN'T BE DONE BY PERSON, BUT MOSTLY BY A CAR ITSELF. THAT SIMPLY LOOKS FOR ME SOMETHING THE SAME AS IT WAS IN PREVIOUS TOYOTA RECALLS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DECELERATE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING CAUSING HER TO CRASH INTO A POLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER SENT AN INVESTIGATOR TO RETRIEVE THE BLACK BOX FROM THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE CRASH WAS NOT CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER DID NOT GIVE THE DEALER AUTHORIZATION TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000. UPDATED 03/24/11*LJ UPDATED 1/5/11 *CN

AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 40 AND 75, WHEN THE ENGINE IS LIGHTLY LOADED, THE COMPUTER CONTROLLED THROTTLE CANNOT DECIDE IF IT OUGHT TO BE SLIGHTLY OPEN OR COMPLETELY CLOSED. THE WORST CASE IS WHEN TRYING TO MAINTAIN SPEED DOWN A GENTLE HILL. THE THROTTLE CYCLES INTERMITTENTLY BETWEEN OFF AND ON. WHEN THE THROTTLE SHUTS, THE TACH WILL SUDDENLY DROP ABOUT 150 RPM AND THE CAR NOTICEABLY DECELERATES. OFTEN, AFTER A FEW SECONDS, THE COMPUTER SEEMS TO REALIZE THAT THE THROTTLE SHOULDN'T BE ALL THE WAY OFF, AND COMMANDS THE ENGINE TO SPEED UP. ENGINE SPEED THEN JUMPS ABOUT 200 RPM, WITH AN ANNOYING SURGE AND DROPS BACK ABOUT 50 RPM A SECOND OR SO LATER. OCCASIONALLY THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT 'WAKE UP' AND I WOULD HAVE TO APPLY THROTTLE TO GET THE CAR TO RETURN TO THE DESIRED SPEED, AT WHICH POINT IT WOULD ACCELERATE THROUGH MY TARGET SPEED AND I WOULD BACK OFF, ONLY TO HAVE THE CYCLE REPEAT. OCCASIONALLY WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DECELERATE, WITH MY FOOT COMPLETELY OFF THE THROTTLE, THE CAR WOULD CONTINUE TO HOLD SPEED AS IF ON CRUISE CONTROL. AT ONE POINT, I PROCEEDED ABOUT A HALF MILE AT 60 MPH WITH MY FEET FLAT ON THE FLOOR. SEVERAL TIMES, I HAD TO STEP ON THE BRAKES TO KEEP FROM OVERRUNNING TRAFFIC AHEAD WHEN THE ENGINE DID NOT RESPOND TO REDUCED THROTTLE. WHEN DECELERATING TO A STOP FROM CRUISING SPEED (ABOVE 50 MPH), PARTICULARLY DOWN A HILL, AFTER THE THROTTLE HAD INITIALLY CLOSED, THE VEHICLE WOULD DECELERATE NORMALLY TO ABOUT 40 MPH, AT WHICH POINT ENGINE SPEED WOULD SUDDENLY INCREASE ABOUT 200

MY 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY DOESN'T SHIFT SEAMLESSLY AS TO WHAT TOYOTA IS CLAIMING. IT'S BEEN VERY ANNOYING. BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIM THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT EVEN THOUGH THE MASTER TECHNICIAN IN PITTS TOYOTA DUBLIN GA ADMITS THAT ITS NOT SUPPOSE TO SHIFT SEAMLESS. TOTALLY CONTRASTING COMMENT. *TR

IN AUG. OF `10 I PURCHASED A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. IT HAS ABOUT 6500 MILES ON IT AND AFTER DRIVING IT HOME FROM NIAGARA FALLS YESTERDAY, ABOUT 100 MILES, I RAN IT THROUGH A CAR WASH. I DROVE IT HOME ABOUT A MILE AND MADE TWO STOPS ON THE WAY. PARKED IN THE GARAGE I WENT OUT TO GET THE CAR AROUND NOON TODAY (19 HOURS AFTER THE WASH). THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AS THE WHEELS WERE ALL TIGHTLY LOCKED. I COULD NOT GET IT TO GO FORWARD OR BACKWARD. FINALLY ONE OF THE FRONT WHEELS MOVED SLIGHTLY AND IN SO DOING THE BACK END OF THE CAR WENT SIDEWAYS INTO THE GARAGE WALL DOING MINOR DAMAGE. I DID NOT TRY IT ANY MORE UNTIL AROUND 24 HOURS AFTER THE CAR WASH AND IT STILL IS TIGHTLY LOCKED AND WILL NOT MOVE. THE TEMPERATURE LAST NIGHT WAS ABOUT ZERO AND 20 DEGREES TODAY. I FEAR IF I REALLY FORCE IT MAY DO DAMAGE TO THE BRAKES IF IT HASN'T ALREADY. I HAVE DRIVEN CARS FOR 60 YEARS, WASHED MANY IN AS COLD WEATHER AND NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. IF I WAS NOT RETIRED AND HAD TO GO TO WORK I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MOVE THE CAR. THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM.

POOR GAS MILEAGE SINCE NEW. THE VEHICLE ONLY GETS 22 TO 23 MPG AND MOSTLY HWY DRIVING. *TR

HEADING EAST ON RT. 41 AND UPON INTERING AN INTERSECTION ON A GREEN LIGTH I SLOWED TO ALLOW 2 CARS TO PASS FROM THE ONCOMING EAST TRAFFIC BEFORE MAKING A LEFT TURN NORTH ONTO A 4 LANE STREET. UPON ACCELERATING TO MAKE THE TURN, THE CAR HIT THE RIGHT CURB AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED CAUSING ME TO QUICKLY STEER TO THE LEFT TO STOP ME FROM HITTING THE ON COMING TRAFFIC FROM THE NORTH.. I MANAGED TO CROSS TWO LANES BUT IN THE THIRD LANE WAS HIT BY AN ONCOMING SOUTH BOUND VEHICLE.. MY CAR WAS THEN STOPPED BY THE LEFT HAND CURB. THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS DEMOLISHED AND $8,000 DAMAGE WAS CAUSED TO MY FRONT END. THE AIR BAGS IN THE DEMOLISHED CAR WERE DEPLOYED BUT MINE WERE NOT. I FEEL AS THOUGH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY EXCELERATED CAUSING THE ACCIDENT SO AFTER HAVING THE CAR REPAIRED AND CHECKED I COULD NOT FEEL SAFE IN IT SO TRADED IT OFF THE ONE THAT I COULD. *LN

IN TRAFFIC DRIVING APPROX 20 MPH WHEN I TRIED TO STOP, PRESSED THE BRAKE AND CAR DIDN'T STOP, ACTUALLY SEEMED TO SPEED UP. REAR ENDED CAR IN FRONT. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. CAR IS CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED AT BODY SHOP. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ON AN INCLINE, SOMETIMES IT WOULD ROLL BACKWARDS RAPIDLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARDS AS IF IT HAD A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE DEALER TESTED THE VEHICLE AS WELL AS AN ADDITIONAL VEHICLE AND SINCE THE FAILURE WAS IDENTICAL THE DEALER THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS NORMAL. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED SINCE THAT WAS UNSAFE AND CAUSED HER TO APPLY THE BRAKE AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AT THE SAME TIME. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 3,400. UPDATED 04/28/11

ON 9 DEC 2010, I DROVE A RENTAL CAR, 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY (BLUE) FROM VIRGINIA BACK TO NEW JERSEY (NJ). THE CAR HAD 3316 MILES WHEN I RENT ON 8 DEC 2010 IN NJ. AT APPROXIMATELY 6:35 PM EDT ON 9 DEC 2010, I WAS DRIVING IN THE MOST LEFT EXPRESS LANE AT 60 MPH IN PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY IN MARYLAND. THE DRIVER FROM MY RIGHT HAND PASSENGER SIDE TENDED TO PASS ME FROM THE RIGHT, AND THAT CAR WAS ALSO VERY CLOSE TO ME. I COULD NOT EVEN SEE THE REAR LIGHT OF THAT VEHICLE. I WAS FORCED TO SLOW DOWN THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY TO AVOID COLLISION, BUT THE CAR COULD NOT SIMPLY SLOW DOWN. IN ORDER TO AVOID THE COLLISION, I SHIFT PART OF MY CAR TO THE SHOULDER IN MY LEFT HAND SIDE. THEN I DISCOVERED A CAR PARKED ON THE SHOULDER WITH NO SIGNALS/LIGHTS. I PUT ON BRAKES THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY REALLY HARD TO THE FLOOR, BUT THE CAR COULD NOT SLOW DOWN AND COULD NOT STOP COMPLETELY. THE BRAKE SYSTEM IN THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY WAS OBVIOUSLY FAILED AND IT WAS EVEN ACCELERATED DURING THE LAST FEW SECONDS PRIOR TO THE COLLISION. THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY WAS FINALLY HIT RIGHT ONTO BACK OF THE PARKED CAR (ON THE SHOULDER). AFTER THE SEVERE COLLISION AT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE, NONE OF THE AIRBAGS IN THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY WAS DEPLOYED FROM THIS SEVER FRONT DRIVER SIDE COLLISION. MOST OF ALL, I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP THE 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY DUE TO ITS BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE! THE MILEAGE AFTER THE COLLISION WAS 3595 AND THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MILES DRIVING DURING THIS TRIP WAS 279 MILES (8-9 DEC 2010). I WAS HURT SEVERELY IN TH

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE IDLE POSITION WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SUDDENLY EXTENDED TO THE FLOORBOARD AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED. THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED UP TO 20 MPH AND THE CONTACT USED ALL OF HER WEIGHT TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL MUST HAVE GOTTEN STUCK UNDER THE FLOOR MAT BUT THE CONTACT BELIEVED OTHERWISE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 800.

I WAS DRIVING INTO A PARKING AREA, IDLING FORWARD SO THAT I COULD BACK UP AND DROP OFF MY COLLEAGUE AT HER HOUSE. I HAD MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR, BARELY IDLING FORWARD, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE PEDAL WAS FLOORED AND THE CAR WAS SURGING FORWARD WITH A PARKED VEHICLE RIGHT IN FRONT OF US. I JAMMED ON THE BREAKS, AND IMMEDIATELY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. BOTH THE PASSENGER AND I WERE TERRIFIED. I WENT HOME, AND WILL NEVER DRIVE THAT CAR AGAIN. I DO NOT TRUST TOYOTA TO FIX IT OR OWN UP TO WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. THE ACCELERATOR FLOORED ITSELF, AND THEN STUCK THERE. I COULD EASILY HAVE KILLED A PEDESTRIAN, MY PASSENGER OR MYSELF. *TR

ON NOVEMBER 30, 2010 OUR 2011 CAMRY WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CAMRY WAS STRUCK BY A 1999 HONDA CRV, THE POINT OF IMPACT WAS BEHIND THE RIGHT FRONT HEADLIGHT. THE CRV CONTINUED TO TRAVEL ALONG THE RIGHT FRONT QUARTER PANEL, BREAKING THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE AND STOPPED AT THE FRONT OF THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. THE ESTIMATED SPEED OF MY CAMRY WAS 10MPH AND THE HONDA CRV WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 40MPH. THE FRONT AIR BAG ON THE CAMRY DEPLOYED BUT NONE OF THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. THE IMPACT OF THE VEHICLE CAUSED MY DAUGHTER, RIDING IN THE BACKSEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, TO HIT HER HEAD ON THE WINDOW. THE IMPACT CAUSED THE WINDOW TO SHATTER. A WITNESS AT THE SCENE OBSERVED HER STOCKING CAP FLY OUT THE REAR WINDOW. MY DAUGHTER WAS TAKEN TO THE DOCTOR AND WAS CLEARED AND WE WERE ADVISED TO OBSERVE HER FOR THE NEXT 24 HOURS TO MAKE SURE SHE DID NOT HAVE A CONCUSSION. THE DOCTOR ALSO STATED THAT SHE WAS LUCKY TO BE WEARING THE STOCKING CAP AS IT HELPED CUSHION THE BLOW. THE DAMAGE ON THE CAMRY WAS SEVERE ENOUGH TO TOTAL THE VEHICLE. I TRIED TO GET AN ANSWER FROM TOYOTA AS TO WHY THE SIDE CURTAIN AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY BUT AS OF YET I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE. *TR

LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE TWO INSTANCES OF TOTAL BRAKE FAILURE IN 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. *KB THE CONSUMER STATED SHE NOTICED THE ENGINE BEGAN TO REV WHILE DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THEN THE TRACTION LIGHT ILLUMINATED. FIVE MINUTES LATER, WHILE APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, AS SHE APPLIED THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN, THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD NOISE THEN JERKED FORWARD REPEATEDLY. THE CONSUMER HAD NO CHOICE, BUT TO RUN THE RED LIGHT. AS THE CONSUMER ATTEMPTED TO PULL OVER, SHE APPLIED THE BRAKE, BUT THE PEDAL LITERALLY WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. THE CONSUMER STATED THE SECOND TIME SHE EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE, IT NEARLY CAUSED HER TO CRASH INTO A BARRIER. AFTER SHE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP, THE CONSUMER SMELLED A BURNING ODOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE ABLE TO BRING UP THE TROUBLE CODES. THE FIRST CODE, INDICATED AN OPENING IN THE STOOP LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT AND THE SECOND CODE WAS THE ABS TRACTION ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY AND SKID CONTROL ECU. THE CONSUMER STATED DESPITE THE EVIDENCE, TOYOTA REFUSED TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 5 MPH WHEN A WATER BOTTLE THAT WAS ON THE CONSOLE HIT THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE VEHICLE SHIFTED INTO REVERSE. THE VEHICLE NEVER MOVED BACKWARD BUT EXHIBITED A VERY LOUD, ABNORMAL SOUND. THE CONTACT APPLIED THE BRAKES AND ATTEMPTED TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NEITHER DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 6,999.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE BATTERY "DIED" WITHIN THE FIRST 150 MILES. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND SHE STILL HAD ISSUES WITH THE CD PLAYER, BLUETOOTH AND OTHER BATTERY-OPERATED COMPONENTS ON THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER BUT THE DEALER COULD NOT ASSIST HER AT THE TIME. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO OFFERED HER NO ASSISTANCE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 591. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 120.

DRIVER FIRST NOTICED A PROBLEM WHEN SHE CAME TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE CAMRY STARTED REVVING THE ENGINE EVEN THOUGH DRIVER WAS DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL; AT THIS POINT THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. FIVE MINUTES LATER, DRIVER APPROACHED A RED LIGHT GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. SHE DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE CAMRY MADE A LOUD SOUND THEN JERKED FORWARD REPEATEDLY. THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW DOWN THE CAR CONSEQUENTLY CAUSING HER TO RUN THE RED LIGHT. SHE THEN ATTEMPTED TO GET TO A SAFE PLACE, SO SHE PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT. WHEN DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO STOP BY DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, THE CAR DID NOT STOP OR SLOW DOWN NEARLY CAUSING HER TO CRASH INTO A PARKING LOT BARRIER. THERE WAS A NOTICEABLE BURNING SMELL. TERRIFIED, WE TOOK THE CAMRY TO A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP TECHNICIANS RECOVERED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES: C1249 AND U0129. THE TECHNICIANS ALSO DROVE THE CAMRY FOR 55 MILES, BUT THEY DID NOT MAKE ANY REPAIRS, DESPITE THE DTC CODES, BECAUSE THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAMRY, AND WE ARE TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT, BUT TOYOTA WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEY SAY THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. THE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES INDICATE OTHERWISE. BASED ON RESEARCH WE DID, THE FIRST CODE C1249, INDICATES AN OPENING IN THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT, WHICH RECOMMENDS THREE LIKELY CAUSES OF THE ERROR, 1) THE STOP LIGHT SWITCH, 2) STOP LIGHT SWITCH CIRCUIT, OR 3) THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY (SKID CONTROL ECU)

AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, MY NEW 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY VEERS LEFT.(PURCHASED 9/9/10)THE DEALER HAS ALIGNED IT TWICE, AND THE VEHICLE STILL VEERS LEFT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE NOT HAD THE VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 1 DAY IN A ROW, AS IT HAS BEEN RETURNED TO DEALER OVER AND OVER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. THE VEHICLE WAS SITTING ON AN INCLINE WITH THE BRAKES APPLIED. THE CONTACT NOTICED THE BRAKE PEDAL BEGAN TO INDEPENDENTLY MOVE FARTHER INTO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT REMOVED HIS FOOT FROM THE BRAKES AND WHEN REAPPLYING, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE FAILURE WOULD RECUR WHENEVER THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS NORMAL. THE CONTACT STATED HE CALLED TWO LOCAL INDEPENDENT MECHANICS AND HE WAS ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A DEFECTIVE MASTER CYLINDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 600.

DURING THE PERIOD OF AUGUST 17-27, I RENTED A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. I RENTED IT FROM HERTZ AT THE DENVER INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT. ON AUGUST 25, WHILE TRAVELING EAST ON US 70, ABOUT 10 MILES WEST OF FRISCO, COLORADO, THE CAR'S ENGINE STOPPED AND THE DASH WENT BLANK, NO WARNING OR ANYTHING. THIS WAS VERY ANNOYING FOR MY PASSENGERS AND ME, GOING FROM 65-70 MPH TO -0- IN A MATTER OF SECONDS. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO PULL ON TO THE BERM AND OUT OF THE WAY OF ONCOMING SEMIS, MOST OF WHOM WERE ABLE TO PULL INTO THE PASSING LANE. I THOUGHT THAT MAYBE THE CAR OVERHEATED AS I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR SEVERAL HOURS WITH THE AC ON AND THE ROAD IS A MOUNTAINOUS ROAD. I LET THE CAR COOL FOR A FEW MINUTES, MADE SURE THE AC WAS OFF. I STARTED THE CAR AND 'EVERYTHING' CAME TO LIFE. I DROVE UP THE REMAINDER OF THE HILL, KEEPING THE SPEED AT APPROXIMATELY 55MPH, DOWN THE NEXT AND STARTED UP WHEN THE SAME THING HAPPENED ' COMPLETE LACK OF POWER. AGAIN VERY ANNOYING!!! AFTER THIS LAST EPISODE WE CALLED YOUR OFFICE AND WERE TOLD TO WAIT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR A REPLACEMENT. AS WE HAD A SCHEDULED ENGAGEMENT IN FRISCO, AND A FRIEND WHO COULD DRIVE OUT 10 MILES TO PICK US UP, THE AGENT TOLD US TO LEAVE THE CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE AGENT SAID A CAR WOULD BE DELIVERED TO OUR HOTEL IN FRISCO. THE CAR WAS DELIVERED TWO AND A HALF HOURS LATER. AND ONE MORE THING. I AM NOT SURE BUT I THINK THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK THE FIRST STALL TIME. I THINK THE CAR STARTED TO ROLL BACKWARD BEFORE I GOT IT FROM DRIVE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH AND APPROACHING A STOP SIGN, THE CONTACT APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE ABNORMALLY ACCELERATED. SHE THEN APPLIED THE BRAKES WITH MORE FORCE AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE, INCREASING IN SPEED. ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO HER BUMPER. THE DRIVER OF THE OTHER VEHICLE TURNED AND THEN PROCEEDED TO CRASH INTO A LIGHT POLE, THE VEHICLE STOPPED AFTER CRASHING INTO THE POLE. THE CONTACT WAS NOT INJURED. A POLICE REPORT WAS AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL BODY REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING REPAIRS. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

MY NEW CAR HAS A 'VOR' LENS WHICH RESULTS IN HALF THE WINDSHIELD DARKENED DURING LOW BEAM USE. THIS 'ECE' STYLE LIGHTING IS TOTALLY DISTRACTING AND I BELIEVE DANGEROUS IN A DARK, RURAL SETTING. MOTORISTS ARE REFUSING TO 'BEAM DOWN' WHEN APPROACHING SINCE THEY'RE UNCOMFORTABLE WITH HALF THE WINDSHIELD DARK! OFF THE MAIN ROADWAY HAS IT'S PROBLEMS WHEN MORE THAN HALF THE WINDOW BECOMES VERY DARK, VERY QUICKLY. OVER USE OF HIGH BEAMS WILL HAVE UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES. ORIGINAL SAE LIGHTING SHOULD BE AVAILABLE FOR RETROFIT FOR THE NORTH AMERICAN MARKET. *TR

I WAS SLOWED PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT. THE CAR SUDDENLY GAVE A ROARING SOUND AND HEADED FULL SPEED AHEAD. I ASSUME I MUST HAVE LET MY FOOT SLIP ONTO THE GAS BUT I'M NOT SURE THAT IS WHAT HAPPENED. I THOUGHT I'D REPORT TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE'S INCURS A PROBLEM. I WAS ASSURED THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION PROBLEM DID NOT EXIST ON THE 2011'S. THE FORCE WAS SO HARD, IT KNOCKED A TOYOTA TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME OUT OF THE PARKING SPACE AND INTO THE STREET. IT WAS NOT DRIVABLE AND HAD TO BE TOWED. I ALSO TOOK OUT THE VAN BESIDE ME. MY CAMRY SUFFERED BUMPER AND LIGHTS DAMAGE AND A SLIGHT RIPPLE TO THE HOOD. THE DAMAGE WAS UNBELIEVABLY SLIGHT CONSIDERING THE DAMAGE TO THE OTHER TWO VEHICLES. *TR
