Complaint: electronic defect in toyota camry 2009 when the garmin GPS system is connected to the car via the gas-lighter plug in, the remote key control that locks and unlocks the door does not work. When I unplug the garmin, the remote key fob works fine. I do not have this problem with my 2002 sienna. I noticed the problem within the last 6-8 months. I have been using the garmin with the camry for over 18 months.
I want to alert you and any other toyota owners of a bug in the dashboard that causes the dashboard lights to flash on and off. Flashes are so sudden most people may not even notice. Toyota supposedly corrected after I left the with them for repair. I was notified that it was corrected yet 4 1/2 months later I'm still noticing the same problem.

Driving on cruise control at 70mph. Engine shut down and lost all electrical power. Then after about 4 seconds car powered up again on its on & reset cruise. This has happened twice now in a span of 2 months. Brought car to dealer and they said they could not duplicate problem. Checked all connections and codes.nothing showed on scans. I asked about the etc and they said that would not cause the problem I encountered? They said if it happens again and no codes show up or check engine light,there is nothing they can do?? These are the so called tech's words of wisdom.
Engine stalled while driving 15mph and was towed to toyota and they could find nothing wrong with car.
2009 camry 4cyl. - when engine was started, with transmission in park, the engine revved to over 4500 RPM without any contact with the gas pedal. Only way to slow the engine was to turn off the ignition. After a few minutes, the engine was started with no issue. Dealer reported "no problem found". Owner believes it is a faulty computer or electrical system.
I have a 2009 toyota camry. On my way home from work around 10:00 pm on 1/25/10. My car shut off while I was driving. I was driving on a two lane road. While pressing on the accelerator and passing a semi truck. As I pulled back into my lane my car just shut off. The check engine and battery light came on. I pulled the car over to the side of the road.and would not start. When I would start the car and put into drive the car would turn off. Then I waited for about 20 minutes. And tired again and it worked just fine and the check engine light turned off. Next day I took it to the dealer and they advised my there might have been some debris in my gas. I always fill up super. I am filling this complaint because I found out today that they are investigating the electrical throttle control on some toyota's and thought this might be helpful. Thank you
