THE WINDSHIELD IN MY 2019 TOYOTA CAMRY SEEMS TO HAVE CRYSTALS AND CHIPS IN IT. I NOTICE THIS AS SOON AS I PURCHASED IT, WHEN LIGHT REFLECTS ON IT. THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE SCRATCHES. IT IS A NEW CAR ONLY HAD 27 MILES ON IT WHEN I PURCHASED IT.
Power train, Dec 8, 2019
MY 2019 CAMRY SE HAS A JERKY TRANSMISSION. THE PROBLEM OCCURS AT LOW SPEED AND SEEMS MORE SYSTEMATIC WHEN REACCELERATING FROM A ROLLING STOP. AFTER SLOWING DOWN TO UNDER 15 MPH OR SO AND ATTEMPTING TO REGAIN SPEED (BEFORE REACHING A FULL STOP), THE CAR TYPICALLY TAKES A SECOND OR TWO TO RESPOND TO THROTTLE INPUT THEN LURCHES FORWARD IN AN AGGRESSIVE AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS WAY. THIS IS NOT A MINOR INCONVENIENCE THAT ONE GETS USED TO OR CAN LEARN TO LIVE WITH. I BELIEVE IT HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE HARM TO ME AND OTHERS IN BUSY TRAFFIC.

NOT ONE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED FROM THE INCEPTION OF THE ACCIDENT TO THE ACCIDENT ON MY ARM. I NOW HAVE A TOTALED CAMRY; I HAD SURGERY ON MY LEFT ARM TWO DAYS LATER, LOST OF WAGES AND DISABLED ON MY LEFT SIDE. TOYOTA IS NOT TAKING ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS SITUATION AS IF THE AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED; I WOULD NOT HAVE THIS RADIAL FRACTURE, WHICH IS WHAT I WAS PAYING FOR BY LEASING THIS TOYOTA CAMRY 2019. I NEED HELP. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AS WELL AS INSIDE THE CAR SHOWING NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

THE NEW CAR HAS DOES NOT ACCELERATE FOR SOMETIME AT STOP AND GO AND NO MATTER HOW MUCH U PRESS THE GAS PEDAL, AND WHEN YOU PRESS HARDER FOR A WHILE A JERKY QUICK GEAR CHANGE HAPPENS WITH UNINTENDED ACCELARATION RATES. THIS BECAME PARTICULARLY OF CONCERN ON FREEWAY/TOLLWAY WHEN I TRIED CHANGING LANES AS THE TRAFFIC STARTED CLEARING,PUTTING ME AT RISK WITH FAST MOVING TRAFFIC. THE ABOVE EXPERIENCE OF GEAR SHIFT OR ACCELARATION ISSUE IS CONSISTENT BEHAVIOR SINCE I OWNED THIS CAR FOR PAST 2 WEEKS

THE PLASTIC PART BELOW MY VENT BUT ABOVE THE NAVIGATION SCREEN MELTED. I WAS DRIVING FROM FLORIDA TO SOUTH CAROLINA. BEFORE I LEFT I KNOW IT WASNT THERE BECAUSE I CONNECTED MY PHONE TO THE CAR. THEN I STOPPED IN GEORGIA FOR A BREAK. AS I WAS DRIVING MY PHONE RUNG AND I WENT TO HIT ANSWER ON MY SCREEN I NOTICED IT. IM NOT SURE IF IT HAPPENED AS I WAS DRIVING OR WHEN I STOPPED. SO I CONTACTED THE TOYOTA PLACE IN VIRGINIA WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA PLACE. THE NEXT DAY I TOOK IT MY CAR TO FLORENCE TOYOTA IN FLORENCE SC. THEY TOOK PICTURES AND SENT THEM TO CORPORATE. THE FOLLOWING WEEK I CONTACTED THEM TO SEE WHAT WAS SAID. I WAS TOLD THAT IT LOOKS LIKE AIR FRESHNER GOT ON IT AND CAUSED IT TO MELT AND ITS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY. SO I REPLIED I DO NOT KEEP AIR FRESHNER IN THAT VENT I KEEP THEM IN MY SIDE VENTS SO THATS NOT POSSIBLE. THEN I CALLE D TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFIC AND I WAS TOLD THEY CAN NOT COVER IT BECAUSE ITS NOT AND MANUFACTURE ERROR AND IT WOULD CAUSE ME $7000 TO REPLACE. I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR IN APRIL AND ITS JUST SEPTEMBER NOTHING SHOULD BE MELTING IN THIS CAR AND IF AIR FRESHNERS CAN CAUSE THIS PLASTIC TO MELT ITS NOT A GOOD QUALITY CAR!

THE CHROME SURROUNDING THE TACHOMETER AND SPEEDOMETER, AS WELL AS THE CHROME SURROUNDING THE INSIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE CHROME TOYOTA EMBLEM ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE CHROME SURROUNDING THE START BUTTON AND THE CHROME AROUND THE SHIFTER ALL CAUSE SUBSTANTIAL GLARE FOR THE DRIVER (AND PASSENGER) WHEN THE SUN IS OUT. THIS GLARE MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE SPEEDOMETER, TACHOMETER, AND MOST OF ALL THE ROAD AND DASH. THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO BLOCK THIS GLARE AND STILL BE ABLE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY.

I PURCHASED THE CAR NOT EVEN 4 MONTHS IN AND I STARTED HEARING A "KNOCKING SOUND" IN THE ENGINE. I TOOK VIDEOS OF IT. I NOTICED THE THE KNOCKING SOUND COMES ON WHEN I DRIVE IT FOR A WHILE. I TOOK THE CAR THE DEALERSHIP AND SHOWED THEM THE VIDEO. THE SERVICE TECH DROVE IT AND SAID HE DIDN'T HEAR ANYTHING. THEY RAN TESTS ON IT AND THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR. THE SERVICE REP SAID HE DROVE THE CAR FOR 5 MINS ON THE STREET. BUT I TOLD HIM THE SOUNDS STARTS AFTER I DRIVE THE CAR FOR A WHILE AND IN THE FREEWAY. THEY SENT ME HOME AND SAID NOTHING IS WRONG. I DROVE THE CAR AGAIN ON THE FREEWAY AND THE SOUND CAME BACK ON. I ALSO HAVE FELT WHAT OTHER CAMRY USERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE LACK OF ACCELERATION WHEN DRIVING THE CAR. IT DOES TAKE TIME TO PICK UP SPEED AND IT CAN BE DANGEROUS WHEN MERGING ONTO FREEWAYS AND LANES. NEED TO GET THIS FIX OR THEY NEED TO MAKE A RECALL ON THIS MODEL.

WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL, THE CAMRY WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WITH THE GAS PEDAL FULLY PRESSED. AT THE TOP OF THE HILL, THE CAMRY WITH THE TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARD DOWN THE HILL AT WHAT WAS APPROXIMATELY 25-30 MPH. THE BRAKE WOULD NOT STOP THE MOVEMENT OF THE CAR. EVENTUALLY, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ALSO PUT IN PLACE. THE CAMRY ROLLED DOWN THE ENTIRE HILL AND STOPPED WHEN THE BACK TIRE HIT THE CURB. THE CAR WAS STILL ON AND IN DRIVE MODE. WE DID NOT COLLIDE WITH ANY OTHER CARS BECAUSE MOST WERE OFF THE STREET. IT WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. FORTUNATELY, WE COULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED OR WORSE. THIS TOOK PLACE ON A CITY STREET. THE HILL IS VERY WALKABLE. THE FACT THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE WITH THE GAS PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED IS ALARMING FOR A NEW CAR WITH LESS THAN 4 MONTHS OF USE. THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE CAR FROM ROLLING BACKWARD WHILE THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN DRIVE. ONCE THE CAR STOPPED, IT SHOWED A CAR FAILURE NOTICE. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO TOYOTA AND REMAINS WITH THE DEALERSHIP TODAY. .

THE TRANSMISSION ON THIS CAR DOES NOT SHIFT THE WAY IT SHOULD. WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP THE TRANSMISSION SEEMS TO HAVE TROUBLE DECIDING WHAT GEAR IT SHOULD BE IN AND THE SHIFT POINTS ARE TOO HIGH ESPECIALLY WHEN SHIFTING INTO 3RD OR 4TH GEAR. THERE IS SOME SERIOUS HESITATION THAT SHOULD NOT BE PRESENT. ALSO, WHEN DOWNSHIFTING IT FEELS LIKE SOMEONE TAPPED THE BRAKE PEDAL BECAUSE IT SLOWS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY. IF A CAR BRAKES IN FRONT OF ME AND I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN AND THEN GET BACK ON THE GAS TO SPEED BACK UP IT TAKES TOO LONG FOR THE CAR TO GET UP TO SPEED TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. THIS HAS ALL HAPPENED ON SIDE STREETS AS I HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY YET.

I RENTED A 2019 TOYOTA CAMRY FOR 9 DAYS. MANY TIMES WHILE ACCELERATING THE ENGINE LOST POWER. IT WAS ESPECIALLY DANGEROUS WHEN ATTEMPTING TURNS IN FRONT OF ONGOING TRAFFIC. THE CAR WOULD START TO GO THEN JUST SEEM TO DIE AS I WAS MAKING THE TURN. THEN ENGINE LIGHTS WOULD COME ON AND IT WOULD JUST START COASTING. THE CAR NEVER STALLED IT JUST WOULD NOT GO. I LEARNED VERY QUICKLY TO NOT THINK I COULD MAKE A TURN INTO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC SAFELY UNLESS I HAD ENOUGH ROOM TO COAST ACROSS THE INTERSECTION. ALSO IT IWAS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC. I LOOKED THIS UP ON THE INTERNET AND IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH CAMRY'S BUT I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THERE IS NOT A RECALL OR, AT LEAST, A INVSTIGATION STARTED BY NHTSA.
