On 9/24/14, while traveling home from a neighborhood park, I was hit by a truck on the driver side. I was going down a slight hill and was going to turn right at the intersection. I'm not sure exactly what happened prior to impact but my turn signal was on, I was going to turn right and I was breaking. Suddenly, I heard this loud crash, when I looked to my left, I saw my driver's side mirror being pushed into my door, then I saw the truck. My car did not stop. I was going apprx 15 to 25 miles per hour maybe, and again I was traveling slightly downhill and would have been making a turn. I think my car was continuing to move forward in the seconds before impact. Once I was hit, my car continued to move, seemingly faster. At that point I was very much aware that my car was not stopping and the breaks were not working. Amazingly, I was able to navigate the corner (without being hit by anyone coming from the opposite direction) and turn the car into a parking lot (with no control of the breaks). In front of me in the parking lot, which is not a big lot, my car continued heading in the direction of a building there. I could not stop the car and was forced to put it into park, hoping that would stop the car. It did. However, the airbags did not deploy. The police were called, a ticket was issued to me stating that I drove without due care and caution. My insurance and toyota hotline have been contacted. The process is just beginning and I will not know the full extent of the damages until the "black box" is inspected. This has been very upsetting and could have resulted in a much more serious outcome. I thought toyota's acceleration problems had been dealt with.
When driving on a road and hitting a big pothole the SRS light in the dashboard might light up and stay on as well as the seat belt restraint light. The vehicle was brought once before to the service facility of toyota and this issue got fixed, when I asked the service staff why is that happening the answer was: "if you drive in a big pot hole the connection to the sensor that is located underneath the front passenger seat might become loose which requires to be connected again and re-calibrated. While having this issue the front passengers airbag might not deploy as the light on the middle console states that the passenger airbag is currently turned off even if the passenger is sitting in the seat and is restraint. To me it sounds as a big safety issue which should not happen just because of a pot hole.

We received the recall notice in early december, 2013 regarding the federal safety agency campaign number: 13v442000 dealing with the air bag control module. At that time, we called our toyota dealer for the related service and were told the replacement parts were in limited supply and the earliest we could have this safety issue fixed was in february, 2014. We made the appointment. We received a phone call today, 1/20/2014, that the appointment was being cancelled as toyota could not meet the current demand for the replacement part. We were told to check back in a couple of weeks to see if the situation has changed. We asked what to do if a problem occurs in the meantime and we were told to then call the service department and they would fix the problem. When we asked how they would fix the problem since they are saying replacement parts aren't available, the question was left unanswered.

As soon I got the safety recall for the toyota camry, I immediately called up bingham toyota. The guy whom I spoke with said, "he asked for then name of the car and phone number, next give me a sec to look it up and then told me that the part is a special one which required a special order," I asked how long will that take he said, "one week." now its 2014 and I still haven't heard a call yet, as I was told that once the parts came in I would be notify by the number I gave him.
When I am driving the car, airbag light turns on and remains on all the time while I am driving the car. I took car to local toyota dealer and they have no clue on how to fix airbag on warning.

I received a recall notification for my 2012 toyota camry, that involves the HVAC housing and the airbag control module. I made an appointment at my regular service dealership (bronx toyota) and took the car in for inspection. I was informed by the service consultant, that the inspection and possible repair could take three to five days.when I asked, how will I be compensated for this inconvenience, I was told that I will have to take that up with the manufacturer. I called the toyota customer experience center ( 888 270 9371) and was told that I should take the vehicle to another dealer for a second opinion. I drive twenty miles one way to work, mondays to fridays. I leave home about 8 am and return about 7 pm. I depend on my vehicle for my livelihood, that is why I drive a toyota. It is not fair to be going around in circles, just to get transportation to go to work while they repair my vehicle from a recall. Who else do I need to contact? Please advise.

There was mildew growth in my car and my car extensively damaged and connectors corroded. There needed to be massive repair of my car which left is flawed and value greatly depreciated I am again having problems as my car trunk does not close. It seems to be due to the trunk opening switch which is damaged. It happened first time around 20 december and it happened again today with the trunk not closing my car has suffered extensive damage due to the manufacturing fault and it is my right to a new car which is undamaged and toyota is not cooperating with the repairs not alone changing the car.

Purchased a 2012 camry from wilson motors in bellingham, washington. Received a recall notice that due to the possibility that air conditioning water could leak into the air bag control we needed to have a repair done. Recall indicated that airbag could deploy inadvertently and cause injury or a car crash. Wilson motors could not give us an appointment for one month because toyota motors USA will only allow them to fix one car per day. This is a serious issue that could cause injury or even death. It should be fixed as soon as possible, not at a rate that satisfies toyota motors USA.

Passenger side air bag not working took to dealership for re=calibration did not repair have to schedule again no air bag light working so the passenger seat has no dash board air bag or knee air bags. Please investigate before someone is a accident and the safety air bags don't work.
Passenger side air bag light turns off and on with no one sitting seat.

If give the look of the bottom of wheels are bowed outward.
Tl* the contact owns a 2012 toyota camry. The contact stated that while driving 35 MPH, he maneuvered the vehicle to avoid crashing into a deer. The front passenger's side tire went off the road and in an attempt to regain control of the vehicle, the contact steered the vehicle back onto the road. As a result, the vehicle rose with only two tires still in contact with the roadway and eventually the entire vehicle became airborne. The vehicle then flipped end over end four times until coming to a rest on its roof. The contact's arm was pulled outside the window and the vehicle landed on his hand. The contact's ring finger was severed and he also suffered from extreme whiplash injuries. A police report was not filed. The vehicle was destroyed. The air bags had failed to deploy.

Noticed that the air bag light is on constantly, the seat belt light keeps flashing and the passenger air bag light is always off even if a heavy adult is sitting in it. The seat belt light keeps flashing always. Noticed this but thought as most times drive alone thought that as there is no passenger in the passenger seat most of the times and attributed the cause of the flashing seat belt light for that.but now know that this is definitely a safety issue.
My girlfriend was involved in a single vehicle car wreck where she left the roadway at an approximate speed of 55mph and crashed into an embankment then rode a rock wall for about 75 feet where the car turned and flipped across the roadway. 2 of the tires were completely ripped off, the initial impact imploded the whole front quarter panel, both back corners of the car were destroyed among other parts of the car! Not a single airbag went off! Fortunately she suffered only minor injuries but it could have been much worse and this pisses me off severely considering I bought this vehicle for its high safety ratings! My insurance is going to look into the matter regarding the air bags not deploying but thought it would be good to bring this to your attention as well. I'd hate to see a fatality caused by the manufacturers negligence of not testing their equipment fully to meet production needs .
While driving north of mark west springs road, sonoma, ca, we were driving through a curve, we slid of the road and went down an embankment hitting a tree causing injury to the passenger and damage to the windshield/passenger side of the vehicle. Unfortunately none of the airbags got deployed causing lacerations and contusions to the passenger's face, neck and arms.
