While driving on the freeway, the speedometer and all of the gauges stalled out while the car was still running. The car gauges came back on after a few minutes, presently the gauges are taking a longer time to come back on, in addition while the gauges are off the air conditioner goes off as well, when all the gauges come back on the tire pressure light comes on. We are afraid to take the care out of town because when the gauges go off the car is hard to steer. This continues to happen every time car is driven.

Break does not apply.

I adjusted the steering column while at a stop light. When I locked everything in place, the airbag light lit up. All of the controls on the steering wheel do not work. I can't use the horn; turn the radio on or make hands free calls. I took it to toyota and they said it was the wiring harness for the airbag and it was an expensive repair. I've left it alone for 5 years. I figure with the takata air bag issue I might be better off.

The ABS sensor/module has gone out again. I spent several thousands in repairs and diagnostics years ago for the same issue. Now it has gone crazy again. The dash has been replaced due to being sticky. The car itself burns oil, we are constantly checking and adding to it. It seems several have had these issues and toyota should be fixing them.

3 different concerns issue #1: while in motion the ABS and brake light come on, speedometer goes to 0, other gauges go crazy. Happens off and on throughout the day while driving. Took it to a mechanic, they said it is the ABS module going out, to fix it with a brand new part would be $1800. Not only is it dangerous to not be able to see my speed, its a possibility my ABS wouldn't kick in if needed. Regular brakes work fine.

While driving my 2007 camry on a town highway, I smelled something burning. Smoke started to fill the cabin, and I saw a glowing flame where the seat warmer button is, on the console. Immediately, I turned off the seat warmer button. I looked for a place to pullover, heard a loud popping sound, saw a larger flame and black smoke filled the car. I pulled over to a shell station, called 911, and a man with fire extinguisher sprayed the now considerable fire burning . The battery was disconnected after the fire was out, and the damage to the car is not repairable. A tow car brought it home. The fire was electrical when it started and then escalated quickly. . My question is why did the fuse not blow to prevent the fire? Thank god I was in a town near a service station and not alone on an isolated road. The fire grew very quickly. This just happened this evening on 11/19/19. It was a definite safety issue, and it was pretty frightening how quickly the fire escalated. I am going to contact toyota about this malfunction as well. The case # by the st. James parish sherifff's office is sjp19002613. I called 911 and 4 police cars and fire truck were deployed and came to the scene.

Driving down the highway or neighborhoods the speedometer would go to 0 indicating that the speed of the car was unknown. Not knowing what speed you are driving allows for excessive speed and could easily cause an accident or get stopped for speeding. The ABS module is the cause of the failure

I have continuously had issues with my cars ignition coils and vsc system. The check engine light and vsc system light is always on and even though I've spent thousands of od dollars on repairs the light continues to pop up even with regular maintenance and multiple repairs. My car misfires and turns off randomly this is very dangerous to drive but I have no other means of transportation. The car misfires in idle,while driving at low and high speeds and it wont turn on sometimes until I connect jumper cables to the battery. When I connect the jumper cables I never need an extra source of power I simply connect one end of the cables to the battery and a few seconds later it all the lights turn on again and the car restarts the whole system.

The break light and ABS light come one and all gauges stop working and just start jumping around. The AC doesn't work when this happens. This happens while idol and while driving. If driving, I can't tell how fast I'm going because the gauges stop working. This happens at random times then goes back to normal but seems to be happening more frequently.

Instrument panel failure....while driving brake and ABS lights cut on and speedometer tachometer temperature gauge gas guage and odometer quit working. The AC also blows hot air and car shakes when stopping occasionally.this has been happening for months and started around 170000 miles. Dealer wants to charge thousands of dollars to find problem. That's half of the value of the car. It's not worth that much money to fix. Toyota needs to do a recall for this. It is a major safety concern

(1) ABS module has an intermittent short. When it fails the speedometer stops working, ABS and brake light on dash come on, temp gauge and tach fluctuate, and the A/C stops working. The short in module was diagnosed by a toyota dealer. I understand electrical components go bad but for it to effect the speedometer and A/C seems like a poor design. (2) on several occasions my engine oil light has come on. Apparently there are issues with excessive oil consumption in some model toyotas with piston rings flaws. Dealer has done oil consumption tests but unable to reproduce problem.

Abs, speedometer, tachometer, RPM and A/C jumps on and off all over the place. I took it to a toyota dealer, could not find what was the problem but they assumed it may be the ABS module or some other modules may not be talking to each other. I have researched on line toyota camry forums and and found they are lots of toyota camry owners with the same issues. This is a very safety issue because im not able to see at the speed my car is going when driving it because tachometer gauges among the others gauges working intermittent (on and off) I request for toyota to place a recall for all toyota camry having this mayor safety electronics problems. I would not mind paying for repair if toyota dealer knew what the problem was but they don't know and if the repair did not exceed ocer thousands of dollars for something that the manufacture has failed to addressed and fix. Thank you.

Hood open warning light on dashboard and chime activates while driving on surface streets and freeway. I stop to check hood and it is secure. Light and alarm will clear and then a few miles later it will go on again. When car is parked and car alarm is activated, the car alarm will start sounding off in the middle of the night, with nobody near the vehicle. I have read that other owners have had these two conditions also, and believe these two conditions are related. It is an annoyance to my neighbors as well as myself, and if driving on the road this could cause an accident if pulling over to check the hood latch to silence alarm and warning light. This has now happened numerous times in the past two months.

I have a 2007 toyota camry that has intermittent instrument cluster problems. Odometer does not increment miles traveled. The speedometer and tachometer will cease to indicate proper readings and drop to zero. The tachometer will then bounce between zero and what I can only assume is a close approximation of the actual engine RPM. At the same time, the ABS and parking brake warning lights illuminate and stay on for the duration of the "episode".

Toyota refuses to acknowledge and repair this issue.
