VISOR CAME LOOSE AND WOULD NOT STAY UP.....FELL DOWN BLOCKING MY VIEW TO DRIVE. TRIED TO PUSH IT TO THE SIDE AND CAME OFF THE BRACKET IN THE ROOF. *TR

I WAS IN A SLOW LANE OF TRAFFIC GOING AROUND A MAIL CARRIER. SUDDENLY, MY CAR SPED UP, ON ITS' OWN. I HAD TO AVOID THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AND MET ABOUT 4-5 CARS HEAD ON. THANK GOODNESS, THE CARS I WAS MEETING PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND LET ME ZOOM THRU. I PROBABLY TOOK ABOUT 20 TO 30 SECONDS FOR ME TO STOP. AS I STARTED AROUND THE OTHER CARS I APPLIED MY BRAKES AND THEY MADE A SCREECHING SOUND BUT DID NOT STOP THE CAR. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW FAST MY CAR WENT??? MY CAR LEFT NO SKID MARKS, I HAVE A CASE NUMBER WITH TOYOTA AND WAS TOLD TO GO TO MY TOYOTA DEALER WHICH I DID A WEEK OR SO LATER AFTER READING DESCRIPTIONS OF THE SAME THING HAPPENING TO OTHER TOYOTA DRIVERS. THE SERVICE MAN SHOWED ME WHAT TO DO IN CASE THAT SHOULD HAPPEN AGAIN, INDICATING TO ME THERE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH OTHER 2011 TOYOTA'S. *TR

AS I PULLED ON TO THE DRIVEWAY AT A FUNERAL HOME, MY CAR STARTED SPEEDING, CRASHED INTO A BRICK WALL, AT WHICH THE AIR BAG POPPED OPEN, THE CAR BOUNCED OFF THE WALL, STARTED SPINNING IN CIRCLES, CRASHED OVER A CONCRETE BARRIER, AND STARTED SPINNING AGAIN AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER CAR WHICH WAS TOTALED. I THOUGHT I WAS APPLYING THE BRAKES & EVEN TRIED TO TURN THE CAR OFF WITH THE KEY. BUT AFTER THE CRASH PEOPLE ASKED ME IF I HAD MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR, AND I SAID I MUST HAVE, BUT COULDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW I COULD HAVE MISTAKEN ONE FOR THE OTHER. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING SINCE 18 YEARS OF AGE, AND HAVE NEVER HAD THAT HAPPEN. I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW AND TOLD MY DOCTOR I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE AGAIN (4 DAYS AFTER THE ACCIDENT) HE TOLD ME TO WAIT A MONTH OR TWO UNTIL I WAS FEELING BETTER FROM THE SEVERE SPRAIN TO MY NECK AND SHOULDER, AND BAD BRUISING OF MY BREAST ABOUT A MONTH AGO MY BROTHER IN FLORIDA TOLD ME ABOUT PROBLEMS WITH MY MODEL OF TOYOTA WITH THE ACCELERATOR STICKING. I NEVER REALLY THOUGHT ABOUT THAT COULD HAVE BEEN THE CAUSE, NOTHING ELSE MADE SENSE TO ME UNLESS I WAS LOOSING MY MIND, AND EVERYBODY I KNOW ASSURE ME "NO" *TR

THERE IS A TRANSMISSION ISSUE AT LOW SPEEDS, MOSTLY CITY DRIVING, THE CAR JERKS WITH ABRUPT SHIFTING, AND SOMETIMES HARSH SHIFTING. ALSO IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR PAUSES A LITTLE WHEN SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE CAR JERKS WITH ABRUPT SHIFTING, AND SOMETIMES HARSH SHIFTING. ALSO IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR PAUSES A LITTLE WHEN SHIFTING AT LOW SPEEDS. THE CAR TAKES OFF LIKE IT RUSHES RATHER THAN A SMOOTH ACCELERATION, THOUGH I PRESS THE GAS PEDAL GENTLY, ALSO ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION A LOUD THUMPING SOUND HAS BEEN HEARD COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION AS THE CAR IS SLOWING DOWN AND IS IN PROCESS OF DOWNSHIFTING AROUND 20MPH. *TR

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE WILL NOT STAY UP. I LEARNED THAT TOYOTA ISSUED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT FOR SUN VISOR ASSEMBLIES ON CERTAIN 2007 - 2011 CAMRY VEHICLES. I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SUPPORT AND WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE WARRANTY EXTENSION. I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT AGAINST TOYOTA SINCE MY CAR YEAR MODEL FALLS WITHIN THE YEAR MODELS AFFECTED, AND CLEARLY I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE SUN VISOR NOT STAYING UP. *TR

THE SUN VISOR STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY AND WOULD NOT STAY UP OR WOULD NOT STAY WHERE I PUT IT AND WOULD AFFECT MY VISIBILITY WHEN DRIVING. ULTIMATELY, THE VISOR BECAME DETACHED. THIS IS APPARENTLY A KNOWN PROBLEM TO TOYOTA. MY VEHICLE (A 2011 CAMRY) IS NOT WITHIN THE "EXTENDED WARRANTY" COVERAGE THAT TOYOTA HAS IMPLEMENTED FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE THAT TOYOTA KNOWS THE SUN VISOR IS A PROBLEM, HAS RECALLED SOME VEHICLES BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM, BUT REFUSES TO INCLUDE OTHER VEHICLES--MANUFACTURED IN THE SAME YEAR AS THOSE VEHICLES INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, NO LESS--THAT ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. IF YOU CAN "ENCOURAGE" OR FORCE TOYOTA TO EXTEND THEIR "EXTENDED WARRANTY"/SUN VISOR RECALL TO OTHER VEHICLES EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM, I WOULD APPRECIATE IT. AS IT IS NOW, I WILL HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIR, AND THIS WILL BE A HARDSHIP AS MY FAMILY IS EXPERIENCING SEVERE FINANCIAL PROBLEMS. *TR

THIS VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 22 THOUSAND MILES, AND THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE SUN VISORS THAT COME DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY AND BLOCK VIEW OF THE ROAD. TOYOTA SAYS THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BUT MY CAR WAS NOT INCLUDED! I BELIEVE THAT IT IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM. *TR

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVE SIDE WENT INTO THE DOWN POSITION AND WHEN I TRIED TO PUT IT BACK UP IT WOULD NOT STAY. AFTER A FEW DAYS THE ENTIRE VISOR FELL OFF. NOT LONG AFTER THE THE PASSENGER SIDE DID THE SAME THING. HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM TOYOTA. I WAS TOLD IT WAS ONLY CERTAIN VEHICLES. STILL WAITING TO HEAR IF MINES IS ONE OF THEM. *TR

I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE AT A SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH WHEN MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2011 SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. I HIT THE BRAKE IMMEDIATELY TO STOP THE CAR'S FORWARD ACCELERATION TO AVOID HITTING A TREE. THE BRAKE STOPPED THE FORWARD MOTION OF THE WHEELS WITH THE CAR BODY LURCHING FORWARD. *TR

THIS CAR PULLS TO THE LAFT SO HARD IT HAS BEEN A DANGER SINCE DAY ONE. NOTHING THE DEALER COULD DO CAN FIX IT. ALSO I HAVE HEARD OF NUMEROUS OTHERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AND THEY HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUTION THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A REAL THREAT. THE DEALER SAID THIS CAR CANNOT BE FIXED. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON ROUTE 78 WEST NEAR BETHLEHEM PA THE OIL LIGHT BEGAN TO FLICKER. WE PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO A GM DEALERSHIP. THE MECHANIC SAID THE OIL WAS LEAKING OUT THE OIL FILTER AND THERE WAS NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. NOW THE ENGINE IS MAKING A GRINDING SOUND WHEN IT IS STARTING AND OTHER SOUNDS. I'M AFRAID THAT WE WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED THE ENGINE OR THE CAR. WE HAVE 3 YEARS LEFT ON THE CAR LOAN. THE OIL AND FILTER WERE REPLACED 32,012 AT SEARS. I HAVE SAVED THE FAILED OIL FILTER. *TR

WHEN TURNING RIGHT INTO THE DRIVEWAY, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND HIT THE CORNER OF THE HOUSE AFTER GOING THROUGH THE GRASS. *JS

I WAS DRIVING WEST ON FLAMINGO JUST PAST THE 95 EXIT. I WAS DRIVING IN THE CENTER LANE, WAITING FOR CLEARANCE TO GET INTO THE TURN LANE. WHEN I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. I WAS ABLE TO SLAM ON THE BRAKE AND STOP IMMEDIATELY. I HAD DEALER CHECK IT OUT -- PLUS A PREVIOUS INCIDENT ON SEPT 24, 2012 AS WELL AS ANOTHER ONE ON NOVEMBER 6, 2012. TOYOTA DENIES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING. *JS

PURCHASED VEHICLE SEPT 2013 WITH APPROX 44,000 MILES ON IT. AROUND APRIL 2014 STARTED TO HEAR SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING WAS LOOSE INSIDE THE CAR. SOUNDED METALLIC. IT WAS DUE FOR SERVICE AT 50,000 MILES SO I TOOK IT IN. MENTIONED THE KNOCKING METALLIC SOUND AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE MOONROOF. I COULDN'T QUITE FIGURE HOW THEY KNOW THAT SO SOON BUT I COULDN'T LEAVE IT THAT DAY ALL DAY, JUST FOR THE SERVICE. I BROUGHT IT BACK TODAY AND THEY SAID IT WAS DEFINITELY THE MOONROOF. IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY SO IT COST ME $248 TO FIX. WHEN I CAME HOME I LOOKED IT UP ON THE TOYOTA FORUM AND, BINGO, THERE WERE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS OF VARIOUS YEARS. SO THAT'S WHY THEY KNEW WHAT IT WAS RIGHT AWAY. THERE ARE ALSO A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS HERE WITH THE SAFER.GOV SITE. *TR

THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR IS THE SUN VISORS. FIRST THEY STARTED TO HANG LOW WOULDN'T STAY UP. ONE DAY ON MY WAY BACK HOME FROM WORK I WAS DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY, THEY JUST COMPLETELY FELL. I HAD TO HOLD THEM UP THE WHOLE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING. THEY KEPT BLOCKING MY VIEW AND THEY WERE DISTRACTING AND A SAFETY HAZARD. TOYOTA REFUSES TO FIX THEM CAUSE THEY ARE NO LONGER COVER UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

VEHICLE STRUCK HEAD ON. NO DEPLOYMENT OF ANY AIRBAGS. NO SEATBELT RETENSION. VEHICLE TOTALED. *TR

A RATTLE OR POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE MOONROOF ABOVE FRONT/REAR PASSENGER SEAT. A LOUD CREAKING SOUND ALL THE TIME HEARD SINCE WINTER IS PRESENT WHEN MAKING TURNS OR JUST HITTING BUMPS IN THE ROAD. CALLED DEALER WAS TOLD THAT PLASTIC SHIMS/ OR DIFFERENT KITS WERE NEEDED AND THE LABOR WAS OUTRAGEOUS FOR CUSTOMER PAY. THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY IS RIDICULOUS THIS IS A STRUCTURAL ISSUE. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH ALL 2007 -UP TOYOTA CAMRY'S. TSB'S ARE ONLINE. IF YOU GOOGLE MOONROOF POPPING OR RATTLING ON 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY'S, YOU'LL FIND THAT THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA IS HAVING WITH THEIR MOONROOF. WHY SHOULD THE CONSUMER SPEND THOUSANDS TO FIX A STRUCTURAL ISSUE? I HEARD WORST CASE SCENARIO IS TOTAL REMOVAL OF MOONROOF WITH NO GUARANTEES TO FIX ON MY TAB. CAR IS BARELY OUT OF BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. *JS

DURING WINTER PERIOD BELOW 30 DEGREES F IT IS NECESSARY TO APPLY A LOT OF PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL, IT FEELS AS IF THE BRAKES ARE NOT APPLYING PROPERLY. THIS RESULTED IN SNOWY CONDITION THE CAR SLID AND RESULTED IN ACCIDENT. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES, IN COLD WEATHER. *TR

NEW BRAKES WERE PUT ON MY CAR ON 11/23/13. A SHORT TIME LATER, I WAS APPROACHING A RED LIGHT AND BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN. UPON DOING SO THE ABS SYSTEM KICKED IN AND WHEN I APPLIED MY FOOT TO THE BREAKS THEY WOULD NOT WORK. AS I APPROACHED THE INTERSECTION, I MADE A SHARP RIGHT 90 DEGREE TURN TO AVOID GOING THROUGH THE RED LIGHT AS THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP AND I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT. THE ROAD WAS NOT WET BUT IT HAD RAINED EARLIER IN THE DAY AND THE ROAD WAS DRY. I RETURNED VEHICLE TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY COULD NOT REPEAT THE SITUATION AND EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. THEY TOLD ME THAT EVEN IF THE ROAD IS DRY ONCE IT RAINS, THE ROAD CAN STILL HAVE PARTICLES ON IT THAT CAUSE THE ABS TO KICK IN. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN INTERMITTENTLY ABOUT ONCE A MONTH. IN THE PAST MONTH, IT HAS HAPPENED EVERY FEW DAYS. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN LATE FEB. AND HE WENT OVER A VERY SMALL PILE OF LEAVES THAT WOULD NOT WARRANT THE ABS TO KICK IN. HE TOO WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN A WRECK. CAR WENT BACK TO DEALER BUT DEALER CAN FIND WHAT WAS WRONG. THE ABS SEVERELY REACTS WHEN IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING SO. THE ABS IS ENGAGING WHEN IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING SO. IF ONE GOES OVER A ROAD THAT IS BARELY WET OR A SMALL PATCH OF DRIVE LEAVES, AS I DID THE OTHER NIGHT, THE ABS KICKS IN AND LOCKS UP THE CAR. WHEN I TOUCH ON THE BREAKS LIGHTLY COMING TO A STOP, THERE ARE NO BREAKS AND THEN THEY SUDDENLY GRAB REALLY HARD. BREAKS FEEL LIKE AIR IS IN THE LINE. THIS DID NOT OCCUR UNTIL THEY PUT NEW BREAKS IN M

AIR BAG NEVER DEPLOYED IN FRONT END COLLISION. *TR

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE BECAME TIGHT. WITHIN A DAY, IT WOULD NOT STAY UP AND WHILE DRIVING IT SIMPLY STARTED DANGLING AND HAD TO BE PULLED OFF. I AM WAITING TO HEAR FROM THE DEALER HOW THEY WILL CORRECT THIS. I HAVE SEEN MANY REPORTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM ON YOUR WEBSITE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE DESIGN/MANUFACTURING APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM. IF A TSB DOES NOT EXIST, IT SHOULD BE SENT BY TOYOTA TO DEALERS TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

ABS INDICATOR AND SLIP INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT MY ABS ACTUATOR/STEERING ANGLE SENSOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF 3400.00. I ONLY HAVE 21000 MILES ON THE CAR. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE ARE OTHER 2011 CAMRY'S WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

STARTED CAR IN MORNING AND IT WAS MAKING WINDING NOISE, LEFT AND NOTICED THE TRANNY DID NOT KNOW WHAT GEAR TO BE IN , WHEN I WOULD STOP IT THE TRANNY COULD NOT DOWN SHIFT FAST ENOUGH AND IT WOULD BANG DOWN IN GEAR, AND THE SPEED ODOMETER WOULD JUMP UP AS IT WAS SHIFTING DOWN, YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE OR IT WILL JUMP FORWARD,IT HAS SNOWED A FEW TIMES SINCE AND YOU CAN NOT DRIVE IT IN THE SNOW AT ALL, IT LURCHES AT SLOW SPEEDS AND YOU HAVE TO KEEP YOUR FOOT ON BREAK , IT DRIVES IT SELF AND KEEPS SHIFTING UP AND DOWN IT IS A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN, OTHER PEOPLE HAVE DROVE IT AND THE SAME ISSUES , I HAVE PUT A 1000 MILES ON IT AND I HATE IT, MY 1998 CAMRY IS SAFER TO DRIVE THEN THIS CAR, NEVER A TOYOTA AGAIN , ONLY MADE 1 PAYMENT AND READY TO TRADE IN AND TAKE A LOSS, THANKS TOYOTA *TR

STRONG, LOUD, PERSISTENT KNOCKING SOUND COMING FROM PASSENGER SIDE OF ROOF WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS OR UNEVEN PAVEMENT. THIS NOISE IS THE FRAME POPPING FROM TWO PARTS OF THE FRAME COMING INTO CONTACT, FROM WHAT I WAS TOLD BY DEALER. THIS WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER PREVIOUSLY AND THE TSB WAS FOUND AND WORK COMPLETED. IT BEGAN MAKING THE NOISE AGAIN AFTER A FEW DAYS TO A WEEK AFTER THE SERVICE. I HAVE SCHEDULED TO TAKE IT IN AGAIN, BUT HAVE HESITATED DUE TO THE CONDITION I RECEIVED MY CAR AFTER SERVICE LAST TIME. THE LINER AND BODY COVERS DO NOT GO BACK ON RIGHT AND THE CAR DID NOT LOOK NEW ANY LONGER WHEN I RECEIVED IT BACK. THE PROBLEM WAS SAID TO BE CAUSED BY WELDING SLAG ON THE FRAME RUBBING TOGETHER, AND BAD WELDS ON THE CAR'S BODY. THIS IS NOT WHAT SOMEONE WANTS TO HEAR WHEN PURCHASING A NEW CAR. *TR
