The vehicle has an issue with the radio the steering wheel controls do not work the touch screen does not work the buttons around the radio does not work there is also an issue with the transmission between 20 mph and 25 mph in extreme shutter happens that cuts off goes away there is no transmission light lit there is no check engine light lit I am completely at a loss to figuring out the repair I do not want to spend thousands and thousands of dollars to have it repaired with a mechanic shop I have noticed that with the 2014 Toyota Camry 95% of the vehicles all have the same issue transmission shutter and the electrical issue with the radio this is a very extremely common issue and I wish they would have it recalled and repaired because Toyota Camry 2014 is a very good reliable vehicle only it has issues and it has issues with a lot of the exact same vehicle I have read forum after forum in regards to the radio I cannot repair it I had tried to replace the entire unit and the unit that I had replaced it with is doing the exact same thing I am terrified to open the transmission because nine times out of 10 I will not figure out the issue I could pay thousands and thousands of dollars to have the transmission replaced or repaired but I don't feel like it should be the owners issue or responsibility to repair the vehicle when 90% of the vehicles out here have the exact same issues due to manufacturer issue really hoping they recall this it will give Toyota a better look I have also noticed that no matter how many times I reset the tire pressure sensor monitor and ensure that all tires have the correct amount of air that the tire light will not go off and will not go away these issues have been around for a very long time since I've had the vehicle and no matter the amount of time and amount of money I spend putting into the vehicle for parts the issues will not go away

Car has been vibrating anytime it goes above 40-45 mph. Mechanic recommended to change the cv axle which I did and I still have same problem. On highways it shakes so much that sometimes it feels like I may loose control of my steering wheel. There's a knocking sound while going on bumps and speed breakers. Check engine light came twice and it was reset by saying its false positive.

I had my breaks changed back in july, before I left on military orders. When I came back home, I noticed my car wasn't working properly. I would have to press really hard for them to work. Or they would still be engaged like, making it harder for me to drive. As well my car would rev up, in park mode. Or while I'm waiting at a red light or stop sign. I've noticed a popping sound on left side of my car as well. My electric system will sometimes cut off everything in my car. I will have to turn car off wait a few mins and turn it back on. I have had check engine lights come on, I took it to body shop. They ran a test on it. And stated everything was fine, and rest codes. I use this car to and from work. I get frequently maintenance checks. The only thing I've had done to care was replacement of head light from a deer hitting me. I've noticed malfunction prior to deer hitting me. I was told by body shop to report issues.

Had to replace my o2 sensor at my own cost of $430 due to a rodent chewing it. My engine light came in and this was why I got it checked. The mechanic at the dealer said rodents love the insulation on the wiring in these cars. I feel that soy based wiring is why this happened and was not my fault and should be covered by toyota. My car is parked where 3 other older vehicles also park and they did not have an issue. Only my car was affected. This is a manufacturing issue that should be corrected by the manufacturer at their expense.

Car time from time will not accelerate it goes limp and take a minute to regain speed or power taken the car into big two toyota they found no codes and could not replicate the problem a computer software update was completed symptoms remain the same I purchased a scanner from the local parts store to see if maybe I'm just crazy come to find our there are codes present called and talked to one of the floor managers and he said its not important enough to set a check engine light so dont worry about it I believe that was the best poor choice of advise to offer a customer that's bringing in a2014 car that having prombles

The vehicle intermittently hesitates (stalls) at starts and at other times as well. We have notified toyota of this situation twice. At first this was just a nuisance (shorter hesitations), but now it is happening more frequently and the hesitations are longer leaving us in more precarious situations. When we arrived today I explained the hesitation problem. Some of xxx statements were rather troubling to me: (1) "this is a new system. There is no longer a wire and throttle. You need to learn to re-drive with it." (2) "though we have equipped all toyotas with this new system, this hesitation problem is predominately in camrys." (3) "I have a 15 toyota avalon and I have been waiting for it to happen to me. It has not happened yet." (4) "if the computer engine light is not on, then your car is operating within spec. There is nothing wrong with your system." (5) "new camrys have a lot computers and you need to allow all the interfaces of the all the computers in the vehicle to communicate with one another. This causes some delay." these statements were stated before (1, 2, 4) and after (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) the car was inspected. I told xxx repeatedly that this was our second visit to germain to report the problem and that this hesitation may cause us to have an accident. Xxx kept insisting that it was not toyota's / computer's fault, that we just needed to learn to re-drive the car. I disagree that "if the computer engine light is not on, then your car is operating within specs." toyota needs to acknowledge that computers can break, be loaded with improper information, be set up incorrectly, etc. Something is causing this hesitation "primarily" in camrys! In our opinion, all toyota camrys with this "new system" should be recalled and this situation addressed immediately. We are hoping that toyota will do the right thing for all camry owners.
