  • Recall 2017363 [Canada]: Electrical
    On certain vehicles, the electrical power cords of some dealer installed block heaters may have been improperly manufactured, causing the wires to contact each other, resulting in a short circuit. A short circuit could lead to a fire which would increase the risk of injury and/or damage to property. Correction: for vehicles where the subject block heater was approved for installation, the dealer will replace the block heater assembly with a new one of an improved design. For vehicles where the subject block heater was not approved for installation, dealers will remove the block heater assembly. In the interim, until the remedy can be performed, dealers will cut the plug end from the block heater cord to disable the block heater's operation.

A loosened fastener could affect the performance of the knee air bag in a crash (where deployment is warranted), and could increase the risk of injury to the seat occupant. Correction: dealers will inspect and confirm that the correct fasteners were used.

The tires are feathering in the middle which i was told was caused by a bad suspension. I've been going to the toyota dealer to do my 5k maintenance and no one single person has ever mentioned this problem to me until now that is super late and very dangerous. I'm always traveling and doing road trips from ks to fl and from ny to fl and from canada to ny and so on and this could have caused an accident.

When backing up and applying the brakes there's a loud clunking, most noticeable coming from the left front wheel. I've been told the noise could be the wrong brake pads were installed, or possibly the installation of the pads wasn't done correctly by the technician, causing the pads to not be locked into place on the brake caliber. Have not been back to the dealer to date i bought the vehicle used so with 32k, it has 36k, still have all the extended warranty i bought with the vehicle so will see how much consideration i'm given.

2017 toyota camry se. I have had my vehicle into the dealership over 8 times now for problems with the door lock actuators and a clunking sound coming from the brakes that has progressively gotten worse. The door lock actuators would not lock/unlock and on two occurrences while the vehicle was in motion the doors unlocked themselves without being commanded. The car was brought into the dealer 4 times for the issue before the dealership finally replaced 3 of 4 out of safety. I brought this issue to the general manager attention that it should take 4 visits to the dealership to get a safety feature fixed. He told me toyota is aware of the problem with the door actuators and have known about the problem but the engineers have not came up with a solution to the problem. Clearly its an electrical issue with the vehicle toyota and the dealership want to acknowledge or address. The car had been in approx. 8 times now for a clunking sound coming from the braking system that has progressively gotten worse. The dealership said toyota's are known for this. Their solution was to pay for a brake job even though the car is still under the bumper to bumper warranty and they know their is an defect with the system. I have voiced my concerns to toyota but they refuse to acknowledge the problem or fix the problem. *tr

At 45000 miles a rattle over bumps and at low speed developed under the dashboard. The rattle increased until i brought it to the local toyota dealer with 50000 miles on it . Through the process it was discovered the steering column had to be replaced at a cost of $135 diagnostic fee, $555 for labor and $757 for the steering column. The new column solved the problem. The cause of loose part or parts is inside of the column. I contacted toyota customer service and got no satisfaction. The service tech at my dealer told me there has been other cases of steering column looseness and replacement. I believe this is a safety concern and needs to be addressed. I have all the records.

I was driving in the hov lane on the 170 at 6:30pm. 2/7/2020. There was a sudden white flash and explosion. All of the airbags deployed. I could not see where i was going. All i could see was out my rear window. I tried to steer the car to the side of the freeway but it stopped in the fast lane. All i could see where cars swerving to miss us. I didn't know if my hazards could be seen as i couldn't see my instrument panel. So i pumped the brakes hoping the lights were working and the cars coming could see them. At the same time, i thought the car was on fire because my throat and lungs were burning. My daughter was knocked unconscious. I couldn't move because of the seat belts. When she came to she called 911. The freeway was closed down. The police found no evidence of us being hit or us hitting anything. No report was issued. The airbags had to be cut to get us out. We were trapped in a car that we couldn't tell if it was on fire or not. If it was we wouldn't have gotten out! The car was deemed a total loss. I believe there was a short that may have caused the air bags to go off. Or the airbags just went off on their own. I do not know what the white light or deafening bang was. I can only call it an explosion.

He said that debris gets clogged in the air conditioning ventilation system causing the leak under the seat.

Vehicle has a recurring issue with rattling/ticking sounds when driving on city, highway, and interstate roads over normal road bumps that is coming from the front passengers side door panel/seat belt retractor pillar area. The local toyota dealer did not want to investigate my issue because they could not replicate the sound even though i had multiple video recordings of the issue. The vehicle has since been in for four separate visits with another local shop to try and resolve the issue. That shop installed a new seat belt retractor and pillar trim along with foam. None of those attempts resolved the issue. $400+ dollars has been wasted trying to fix this problem. I believe it is a quality issue on toyota's part that needs to be resolved.

While driving on a street at approximately 25mph, i approached an intersection with a stop sign. I applied the brakes and lost power steering electric boost, abs system, stability control, and speedometer. I was driving in a straight line leading up to the intersection. There was no warning leading up to this loss of function. All systems remain non-functioning. Warning lights for steering, brakes, abs, traction control, and check engine light are illuminated. The dealer states that the abs actuator is faulty. The repair part not immediately available. The toyota rep stated that there was no additional warranty at this time. The repair will be $3000. There are other reports of similar issues. This could be an unrecognized systemic safety hazard. My vehicle has not experienced slowdowns as others have reported when experiencing similar system failures. Uncommanded slowdowns in the heavy traffic in this region could result in a fatal accident. Request nhtsa immediately look into this issue as there are other reports of this issue. The dealer indicated that the abs parts are on back order which leads to the inference that abs actuators are being replaced while no nhtsa reports are being filed systems impacted includes, brakes, steering, speed control, stability control. Systems are basic safety systems.

Takata recall well recently everytime i go in reverse to back out of a driveway or anything and i press the brake, i hear 2 popping or clicking noises. I doubt it has anything to do with the braking system or transmission. Possibly the suspension. No popping noises occur if i'm in drive and i brake. It'll do it whether i'm going in a straight line in reverse and brake, or if i'm turning in reverse and brake.

While the vehicle is in motion traveling straight on a highway, warning bell sounds and three warning lights are illuminated simultaneously and constantly: brake, abs and stability control system. The center error message panel of the dashboard cycles through the three messages, as shown in the accompanying photos. While these messages are displayed, every few miles there is an apparent loss of power, slowing the vehicle. Pressing the accelerator further does not restore power. Fully releasing the accelerator for a couple of seconds and then pressing the accelerator does restore power. While these messages are displayed, cruise control also does not function. The warning lights remain on until the vehicle is turned off. Upon restarting, the warning lights are no longer illuminated. The photos are from october 29, 2018, but this problem has occurred intermittently and with increasing frequency (now every three days on average) for several weeks. I will be having a dealer investigate. I have seen this problem described for this vehicle make/model/year on other online complaint forums.

Rear back brakes are not safe they lock up. Toyota 2017 camry purchase 9/2016. 8/2018 , had 5 pt inspection brakes were good 8mm all 4 at 27000 miles. Then 10/2018, left rear wheel screeching noises & wheel became extremely hot to touch after driving15-20 minutes. Dealer said it "was environmental", found that rear brake was frozen in bracket and sitting sideways. How did that happen? They did say it was the way i drove and environmental. They fixed it and cost me $500 i asked is this dangerous if brake freezes.? 1 year later 10/2019 and only 11000 miles on the new back brake pads and rotors, the same thing happens to the same wheel, left rear. . I called dealer and brought car in. What a dilemma. Again they said it is environmental?? Dust??. They reported that the the new brakes pads are now 7mm after replacing them in 10/2018?? How so ? It appeared that again the pads got stuck in the caliper braket which they cleaned up and lubed. Same problem in 10/2018 i asked why is this happening , could the caliper and bracket be defective. They said it is the material corrodes faster. They told me i should have a brake inspection cleaning every year for $125 as preventative. Now how does a car after just three years have another brake problem, the rear left wheel. All other wheels/brakes are good? So it is environmental for one wheel?? Headquarters of toyotas knows about this problem and telling the dealers to tell the customer that it is environmental. Also dealer admitted that there have been other cars same problem and toyota hdqt know about it but not doing a thing. It scares me to drive this car with a potential braking problem that may cause an accident if the brake freezes and i am not aware of it and the brake pad deteriorates on a long drive. Toyota should owe up to the poor quality of material they are using cause a dangerous situation to arise.

At least two weeks ago, toyota updated its entune navigation software with a flawed system update that eliminated the voice command system for phones, navigation, etc. Toyota has failed to provide public notification of the problem and has to-date failed to come up with a solution to correcting the problem. This results in a safety problem, as toyota customers can no longer place or make calls or seek directions verbally.

After having my car for almost a year in south carolina, i noticed that the front bumper grill where the emblem is located is bubbling significantly. The "chrome" looking plastic isn't holding up to normal wear and tear on the camry. I wash my vehicle twice a month, so not taking care of the vehicle is not the issue by any means. I told the dealership about this problem, and they stated that this was no longer on my coverage for warranty. I do not feel a brand new car should have cosmetic issues like this after a year of owning the vehicle from driving it off the lot brand new. For about 8 months of its 16 month life span the car was garage kept. My wife is currently driving the vehicle and does not take it for a drive that often.

While driving on highway 280 southbound at roughly 65 mph in friday evening traffic, the moonroof on my 2017 camry exploded spontaneously. It was so loud, i thought i had been shot at. Luckily, the cover was closed or glass would have been everywhere in the car's interior. The glass had exploded outward as there was no damage to the sliding cover at all. I called my insurance company but was unable to get into a shop as it was after 5 pm. The moonroof rails had to be replaced when i initially bought the car last year and so i thought the dealer would have the repair under warrantee. I took it to the dealer on saturday morning and they admitted that they had seen this problem before and that the repair was not under warrantee. Dennis mcconnell stated that the car was under so much external and internal pressure when sealed up at highway speeds that this failure sometimes happens especially as moonroof and sunroofs being a standard feature on cars today. I ended up paying $1072 for a repair i feel must be a structural issue that should be under recall by toyota. The car has less than 25k miles. I should not be responsible for the cost of this repair. I am now afraid that this will happen again and drive with the moonroof open on the freeway.

While traveling over a speed bump, driveway entry, or railroad crossing, a loud mechanical clunking sound occasionally comes from the car. The clunking sound is definitely from the front, and appears to be from the right front suspension. The sound occurs when the car comes down to its lowest point of suspension travel. This clunking sound occurs most frequently over speed bumps, and occasionally at driveway entries, and railroad crossings. The clunking sound has occurred with the brakes on and off. The sound has most frequently occurred at slow speeds and occasionally occurred at normal street speeds. The clunking sound has occurred while the steering wheel is turned and while it is straight. The car is one year old, and the first incident occurred between 8k-9k miles. The car has not been in any accident, or any condition that would damage the suspension, and the suspension has not been serviced. The car has not been inspected for the issue yet. The car will be inspected at the next scheduled service of 15k miles. The issue has not yet been reported to the dealer because the issue is intermittent. The issue cannot be exactly replicated during a text drive, but it happens randomly and often enough to be a nuisance.

To use the defrost setting in the 2017 toyota camry, outside air must be on. I have never had this feature with any other car i owned and it is not like this in the 2018 models. This means when driving in rush hour traffic, you must have outside air on to run the defrosters. This causes exhaust to come in your car. Since i live in houston, tx with high humidity, running the defrosters is a common occurrence. This has caused me to have a headache many times. In 2017, it snowed in houston and to clear the windshield, you had cold outside air coming in.

While making turns on well-maintained city streets, the camry hybrid's rear end is unstable. It fishtails. I experienced this twice while making right-hand turns, once on dry pavement and once on wet pavement. These are low-speed turns. I also experienced this while driving on a roundabout at a low speed in a local shopping center. I am a safe, cautious driver and purchased this car for myself because of its excellent crash-safety ratings. I will no longer drive it because of the rear-end stability problem, so my spouse took over driving the vehicle. This morning, he returned from an outing and said that the car fishtailed three times today, while making both left and right turns. The streets are damp today (from an overnight rain). The car is dealership-maintained; the tires are in good condition and are properly inflated. I have never had a vehicle behave in this manner (have owned or currently own and drive honda accord, mazda B2200 pickup, mercedes 300se, subaru forester, vw jetta, gm sierra pickup, ford f150 pickup).

On november 4th, 2017, i was involved in an accident which was determined by the police report to be a hit-and-run accident. We were never able to find the person who hit my car while i was driving. My car was severely damaged as a result of spinning across 7 lanes and hitting the sub-dividers. Please see attached pictures of the vehicle below. Unfortunately, none of the 8 airbags in the car deployed. My face was slammed very hard against the steering wheel as a result of the impact. We reported this to the toyota corporation and they said they needed to do an investigation, which took them more than 2 and a half months, to come to the conclusion that the car performed normally. They sent me some diagrams and other information which was completely incomprehensible. Please see attached documents from the toyota inspection department. I recently sent a letter to toyota corporation requiring a fair resolution to my situation. Please see attached copy of that letter. Everybody i show the car to, including body shops and mechanics, felt that i was very lucky to walk away alive from that car.

I bought a new 2017 toyota camry xle in april 2017 and soon thereafter started noticing some unusual, unintended acceleration and jerking during slowing down/deceleration. The car jerks and tries to maintain speed against the driver's intention to slow down gradually and/or stop, specifically noticeable at 20 and 30 mph speeds. During slow down, seems like car switches gear abnormally to maintain speed when it's supposed to be slowing down gradually. It tries to maintain speed for an unusually long time instead of smoothly slowing down with no foot on accelerator pedal, causing too much use of brake over and over to slow it down and avoid collision with car in front of you, slow down or stop. I am contacting you after exhausting all my efforts to convince dealer and the toyota corporate office to have them take this 'unintended acceleration' safety concern seriously and do something about it. I am sure lots of 2017 camry owners are suffering and frustrated with the same issue, but cannot get anywhere with dealer tech services or toyota.

Cpsc:the hood of the toyota camry le year 2017 model is raised too high in relation to the dash. It should not be sold to people whose height is 5 feet 3 inches or less. *bf the consumer stated that driving the vehicle with limited view of the car sides over the hood causes anxiety about being hit by another vehicle.

At 4500 miles the normal indicators of "need maintenance soon" appeared on the alert screen. Soon thereafter i had a "check braking system" light come on while i was in reverse mode causing the parking brake sign to remain illuminated even though i let go of the foot brake. Drove to the dealership and was told it was an erroneous alarm. I was also asked if i spent time driving the car with my foot on the brake and on the accelerator simultaneously (which of course i did not). The very next day after driving 20 miles and in park, the alert system showed "check charging system". The manual states this is a serious alert and driving the car with this on could cause permanent damage to the car. I immediately called my local toyota dealership and they towed the car to the dealership only to tell me after a thorough inspection that nothing was wrong and to only worry if the alert came on while i was driving the car. I have not yet been given an explanation as to why these alarms are continuing to come on. It should be noted that all these alarms have been removed by the dealership but i have to take them seriously at all times.

I been experiencing unintended acceleration on the highway maybe about 3 to 5 hours into driving. The car jerks and picks up speed a few miles per hour. As you can see in the attached photo. I have many attempts with the dealer to take a look at it but the problem hasn't been duplicated. The car also has a sluggish take off intermittently and you can hear the transmission dragging at times. I also have video footage and more photos. The vehicle dashboard also gives incorrect speed ratings.

On january 25, 2017 at approx. 7:37 pm i started up the vehicle that was not in motion. Before placing the vehicle in motion i noticed the skid and parking brake lights were both on. I then checked the parking brake and it was in the release position (up). I put the vehicle into motion and both lights remained on. At approx. 7:45 pm i was driving cautiously on the highway at approx. 60 mph. At about 7:47 pm all of the sudden i felt the steering wheel stiffen, and at the same time the vehicle began to decelerate from 60 mph to speeds of approx. 40-45 mph. Simultaneously, i pressed on the gas pedal to accelerate but the vehicle failed to increase in speed so that is when i pressed on the gas pedal down to the floor but still the vehicle did not increase in speed. Taking notice of my immediate surroundings, i immediately noticed the skid and parking lights remained lit, so i used my left foot to double check the parking brake position and it remained in the release position (up). Not realizing what was actually happening to the vehicle, i panicked at that moment and i pressed down on the parking brake and this is when the vehicle spun out of control and off the highway into a ditch causing personal minor head injury to myself and my front passenger. The damage to the undercarriage is unknown, but the front and rear fender were proved obvious damaged. The air bags did not deploy. A police report and insurance claim were filed immediately after the accident. The vehicle was drivable and was later driven to my house and remains in the driveway until investigated by my insurance company. *tr

I just bought toyota camry xle v6 2017. This car has very sensitive steering and is unsafe to drive, especially on a highway. There is a 1-2 degrees of very loose, fluid, no-resistant movement space in the steering wheel. The lack of any resistance in the steering makes the driver not having control over the car. I have to keep correcting the steering for the car to stay in lane. Actually, a slightest pressure on the steering wheel will make the car to jump in that direction. This makes me feel very unsafe on the highway, it also requires a lot of concentration and it makes me tired, especially my hands. My car has electronic steering systems (eps). I went to toyota dealer shop. They checked it with a computer and there were no eps faults. All came ok. Their help ended there. This however does not change the fact that the car is not safe to drive.
