2012 Toyota Camry complaints

MY TOYOTA WHEN I GO 40 MILES TO 60 BETWEEN IT STARTS TO SHAKE AND VIBRATE WHEN I PUSH THE GAS NOT STOPS SO IF I HAD TO GUESS JUST A LITTLE BIT STARTS TO SHUTTER MORE STARTS TO SHAKE AND THEN SHE JUST PISSES ME OFF I OWE $13,000 ON THIS CAR RIGHT NOW I'M DEFINITELY GOING TO TAKE IT BACK AND SEE WHAT'S GOING ON BUT BY READING ALL THE PROBLEMS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE AND YOU GUYS WIN BIG AND NOBODY FIXED IT I DON'T THINK THEY'RE GOING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT MY CAR THEY SHOULD DO A RECALL I'M DISAPPOINTED IN TOYOTA I USUALLY LOVE TOYOTA REPORT ABUSE

AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCK AND UNLOCK STOPS WORKING. MY CAR HAD JUST PASSED 60K WHEN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN OR LOCK BY PRESSING THE KEY FOB. AFTER COUPLE MONTH ALL 4 DOORS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE TO LOCK AND UNLOCK ALL 4 DOORS BY MANUALLY UNLOCKING USING THE KEY. AFTER RESEARCH FOUND OUT THE DOOR ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ON ALL 4 DOORS AND MULTIPLE TOYOTA AND LEXUS OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

DECEMBER 29TH AT 3:00 A.M MY WIFE AND I WAS GOING TO THE ATM IN GRANGER TX. AS I APPROACHED A SHARP CURVE I WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN AND THE CAR SPEEDED UP HIT THE CULVERT AND WENT AIRBORNE. WE CAME DOWN ON A BOULDER AND SOMEHOW WE MANAGED TO DRIVE BACK TO MY BROTHER IN LAWS. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF. I HAVE SEVERE WHIPLASH, I CRACKED MY L1 AND INJURED MY SIDE AND BACK. MY WIFE'S HEAD HIT THE SIDE WINDOW SO HARD SHE HAD A CONCUSSION KNOTS AND BRUISES ON HER HEAD. SHE HAS BRUISES ON HER RIGHT SHOULDER, HIT HER KNEE AND LEG. IF WE HAD NOT BEEN WEARING SEAT BELTS WE WOULD HAVE DIED. IF OUR AIRBAGS HAD WORKED WE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN HURT AS BAD AS WE ARE. MY WIFE'S GLASSES ARE BENT AND MY WATCH IS BROKE. I AM SENDING PICTURES TO PROVE THE AIRBAGS DID NOT WORK. NOT SUR WHAT THE ODOMETER READING IS BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO TURN THE CAR ON SINCE THERE IS NO LONGER NO OIL OR ANTIFREEZE.

TAKATA RECALL. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, CAR WOULD NOT START, RECEIVED SOME ELECTRICAL CODES WHEN WENT TO LOCAL SHOP (MERCHANT AUTO AND TIRE, MD). CAR WAS PARKED AND NEXT TIME, WHEN TRYING TO START DID NOT START. BATTERY IS GOOD. I HAD PASSENGER SIDE SEAT AIRBAG RECALL FIXED ABOUT 6 MONTHS BACK (EARLY PART OF 2017)

WHILE DRIVING ON ANY ROAD BETWEEN 20 AND 40 MPH, 3RD AND 4TH SPEED, THE TRANSMISSION SHUDDERS AND WHILE PRESSING THE GAS, THE VEHICLE HESITATES. SOMETIMES IT IS SOMEWHAT CLEAR TO ACCELERATE, OTHER TIMES IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE FIGHTING A WALL THAT WILL NOT MOVE. I BELIEVE FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THAT IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ECU AND A POSSIBLE FAULTY TORQUE CONVERTER. THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO BY THE NHTSA PROACTIVELY, AND NOT LEFT TO THE INDIVIDUAL CONSUMER TO SEE IF THE ISSUE RESOLVES ITSELF. IF THE CAR FAILS IN MOVING TRAFFIC, SOMEONE COULD HIT ME FROM BEHIND. AT THIS TIME, I AM HAVING TO GO FROM 2ND SPEED TO 4TH SPEED BY 40 MPH TO GO AROUND 3RD GEAR ALTOGETHER. THIS IS NOT THE WAY THE CAR SHOULD OPERATE. VEHICLE IS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS ON ANY ROAD AT ANY TIME.

I HAVE 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT HAS A VIBRATION ISSUES WHILE DRIVING. THIS SEEMS LIKE A THE VEHICLE IS ABOUT TO FALL OFF THE ROAD. I SEARCH IT ONLINE AND IT SEEMS LIKE ALMOST EVERYONE THAT HAS A 2012 TO 2014 CAMRY HAS THE SAME ISSUES. PLEASE HELP.

WHILE DRIVING ON ANY ROAD ( HIGHWAY, CITY STREET, ECT.) AT BETWEEN 25 AND 45 MPH. THE TRANSMISSION SHUDERS. THIS FROM MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THERE IS A MASSIVE MANUFACTURE DEFECT IN THE TOURQUE CONVERTER AS WELL AS THE ECU. THIS COULD AND WILL CAUSE MAJOR TRANSMISSION ISSUES. THIS SHOULD AND NEEDS TO BE A MANDATORY RECALL.

VEHICLE SHUTTERS AT 30-45 MPH WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE FOOT IS TAKEN OFF THE GAS. IF YOU HIT THE GAS AND SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN ENOUGH, IT STOPS, BUT IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE AND WORSE. STARTED AT JUST 45MPH, NOW HAPPENS AT 30 AND 35 MPH AS WELL. IN READING OTHER FORUMS, THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE A FIX FOR THIS. SOME HAVE BEEN TOLD A COMPUTER UPGRADE, BUT THAT WAS ONLY TEMPORARY AND IT CAME BACK WORSE.

GLARE FROM THE DASHBOARD UNDER CERTAIN SUN ANGLES COMPLETELY OBSCURES VISION THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. AT TIMES WE ARE FORCED TO DRIVE AT A CRAWL. IN ONE INSTANCE, WE ALMOST RAN INTO A FLAGPERSON WHO WAS STANDING IN THE ROAD DIRECTING TRAFFIC AROUND A WORK CREW.

CAR TOTALED IN SEVERE ACCIDENT AFTER OWNERSHIP OF EIGHT MONTHS. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON MCLOUGHLIN BLVD IN PORTLAND OR AND MY TOYOTA WAS STRUCK FROM BEHIND BY A CHRYSLER WITH SUCH FORCE THAT IT HIT SEVERAL OTHER CARS (BELIEVE THE POLICE OFFICER SAID 6.)

SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED. WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY COMING HOME, WE HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION FROM ABOVE. WE THOUGHT SOMETHING HAD DROPPED FROM THE SKY AND FELL ON OUR CAR. THE SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED AND GLASS WAS FALLING ONTO US AS I WAS DRIVING. I HAD TO DRIVE ABOUT 5 MILES(GOING ABOUT 40 MPH) UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY. UPON OBSERVATION THERE WAS A HUGE HOLE IN THE SUNROOF WITH GLASS CONTINUING TO FALL AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE HOME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO OPEN AND CLOSE THE MOON ROOF, IT FAILED TO OPEN AND CLOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LITHIA TOYOTA OF MEDFORD (1420 N RIVERSIDE AVE, MEDFORD, OR 97501) WHERE THE DEALER STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY THE WEATHER.

DRIVERS' SIDE SEAT BELT FAILS TO RETRACT COMPLETELY UNLESS "COAXED." THIS LEADS TO IT BEING INADVERTENTLY BLOCKING THE DOOR FROM CLOSING. THIS BEGAN AT OR ABOUT 45,000 MILES. THIS IS ABNORMAL FOR A SEATBELT, IN MY EXPERIENCE, AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. MY 1991 GMC S-15 STILL HAS NO PROBLEM RETRACTING BELTS, WITH 243,000 MILES ON IT. GIVEN THIS CONDITION, THE SRS SYSTEM OF THE SEATBELT LOCKING IS QUESTIONABLE!!! DEALER SERVICE WRITER CLAIMED REPAIR/REPLACING DEFECTIVE RETRACTOR IS AT MY EXPENSE.

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT DRIVING ON A CITY STREET DUE TO THE VEHICLE ACCELERATING, I SLOWED DOWN THEN PUT MY FOOT ON THE PEDAL. THE CAR TOOK OFF I SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES BUT STILL HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE TOLD THE DEALER MORE THAN ONCE ABOUT THE VEHICLE STALLING AND ACCELERATING.

TOYOTA MOTOR COMPANY WAS CONTACTED ON MONDAY 2/20/17. AN INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION REPORT SHOWS THE ACCELERATION. THIS REPORT WAS RECEIVED 3/24/17. TODAY IS 5/3/17 AND WE STILL HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING FROM TOYOTA AS TO THE INVESTIGATION OR SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WILL NOT TOUCH THE VEHICLE UNTIL THE PARENT CORPORATION TELLS THEM IT IS OK. WE ARE GETTING THE RUN AROUND. EVERY TIME I CALL THEY SAY IT WILL BE ANOTHER 30 DAYS, YOU WILL RECEIVE A CALL OR YOU WILL RECEIVE SOMETHING IN THE MAIL. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 3 MONTHS WITH NO RESOLUTION. WE DON'T WANT TO GET ATTORNEY'S INVOLVED BUT WHAT ELSE CAN WE DO? WE HAVE CONSULTED WITH AN ATTORNEY BUT WOULD PREFER FOR TOYOTA TO JUST DO THE RIGHT THING. CAN YOU ASSIST?

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. I HAVE HAD THE FRONT TWO REPLACED. NOW THE TWO REAR DOORS ARE NOT WORKING APPROPRIATELY. WHEN I GO TO USE THE KEYLESS ENTRY THE LOCKS DO NOT RESPOND AT ALL. I HAVE TO UNLOCK THEM MANUALLY. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT I SHOULD NOT BE HAVING WITH THIS CAR.

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP (TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN), THE VEHICLE WILL MOVE ABOUT 20 FEET OR 20 MPH AND THEN HESITATE FOR ABOUT 1 TO 2 SECONDS. IT WILL THEN ACCELERATE NORMALLY. . THIS HAPPENED AT THOSE INTERVAL. THE INTERMITTENT HESITATION IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO CROSS A BUSY INTERSECTION WHEN THE CROSS TRAFFIC IS UNCONTROLLED.

I WAS DRIVING 2012 CAMRY LE AT 55 MPH AND SUDDENLY HEARD A POP AND FOUND POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH AND STAYED FOR MORE THAN 10 SECONDS.

TAKATA RECALL: MY TOYOTA CAMRY IS NOT FORMALLY PART OF THE RECALL BUT THE AIRBAG EXPLODED DURING AN ACCIDENT CAUSING SHARP PIECES TO HIT MY FACE, ARM, CHEST, AND I HAD A MOUTH FULL OF GLASS CAUSING DAMAGE TO MY TEETH. MY VEHICLE WAS STOPPED FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT ON A CITY STREET WHEN A MOTORCYCLE HIT THE DRIVER'S SIDE.

SRS AIRLIGHT IS ON. DEALERSHIP SAYS SPIRAL CABLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE.

THE STEERING COLUMN ON MY 2012 CAMRY SE WILL NOT STAY IN POSITION. THE LEVER THAT IS SUPPOSED TO LOCK THE COLUMN INTO POSITION KEEPS FALLING OPEN, FROM GRAVITY, ALLOWING THE COLUMN TO TELESCOPE OUT, BE PUSHED IN, PULL UP, OR DOWN, WITH THE VERY LITTLE PRESSURE WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER TELLS ME THERE'S NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO REPAIR THIS, THAT THEY'LL HAVE TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE COLUMN FOR $1,400 SINCE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY (OVER 36,000 MILES). THE COLUMN BEING SO PLIANT, FALLING OUT OF POSITION MAKES DRIVING, ESPECIALLY TIGHT TURNING OR SUDDEN STOPS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR
