The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds with the cruise control activated, the cruise control system would erroneously deactivate causing the vehicle speed to suddenly decelerate. Also, on several occasions, while driving the anti-collision system would erroneously activate causing the vehicle to abruptly stop although no other vehicles or objects were nearby. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not contacted regarding the failure. The failure mileage was 40,000.
The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle veered into another lane, but the lane departure system did not alert him. The lane departure warning light was illuminated. The dealer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that he would need to pay for the diagnostic test and repair. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 13,400.
Left rear cross traffic sensor fell into rear bumper (adhesive failure?). This is the second incident. Toyota service manager claims it was knocked into bumper by external force although that is not what happened. The sensor failed when groceries were loaded into trunk during Covid. This is the exact sensor that was repaired by the service department previously claiming it was due to adhesive failure. There is no way to disable the sensor failure alarm on the dashboard display so there is a constant rear sensor failure alarm blinking constantly on the dashboard which is annoying.
In dealer 2 different dealers for 2 computer failures 2x. So called repaired. Car hits the brakes by itself there is no way to turn off the radar on the front of the car. You have to remember to turn it off everytime you drive it. Then the gas pedal and brakes failed. The tow truck guy said just disconnect the battery for 15 minutes to re-set the Ecu. Well he did and I had to retrain the car how to shift over several days. Good thing the failure occured at 30mph. I am selling this. I have owned Camry's since the 90's and im afraid to drive this and bought another car. Contact the next owner. Selling it as is.........
I was going home from Houston to Richmond Texas but a few minutes into driving some warning lights came on and a warning message says Secondary Brake System malfunction. Then all of a sudden the steering wheel was almost locked and was very hard to maneuver. But due to safety of where I was driving I tried hard to reach a Toyota service center nearby which was about to close so I decided to drive to another one nearby my home. A week or so later they said the car was inspected and repaired but on my way home after picking up the car I had to return it again and since then which has been approximately a month now the car is still in service waiting for parts. The safety of others and mine was at risk as the steering wheel was very tough to maneuver. The problem was confirmed by the dealer. The vehicle component was inspected by Toyota service worker and they said they also had it checked by the manufacturer personnel. There were no prior warning or symptoms prior to this incident which happened on May 24, 2021.
Transmission has a shock when shifting. It also revs high in order to shift, when it does it has to much power. Vehicle can decide when to shift it just jerks
Many times the blind spot monitor doesn't work properly. When there is no vehicle nearby and driving alone on the road, still the blind spot monitor light up and notify of vehicle at my blind spot and sometime when there is a vehicle at my blind spot overtaking the it shows when the vehicle has already passed. While driving on cruise control suddenly it says cruise control not available. This doesn't happen always but sometime. Both of the above happened while driving on highway.
Sunday night march 21/2021 8:37pm I was driving in staten island with a passenger, way to dropp him off, over 40mph, and sudden my car had a brakes failure, on my dashboard appears a code 'low braking power', we were in panic, and I was approaching to a line of car in an stop light in red, I was pushing my brakes several times but never response, I had to maneuver my car to the right shoulder and there was people crossing and finally I got push my emergency brake.(I have he video in full hd as evidence)
Car put emergency brakes without any car in front me and my wife was scared why it braked.if car is drove more than 65 MPH car start to shake that it will flip over and even experience mileage drop in first when we use to fill the tank up it shows 400 miles now we fill the same gas and same amount of gas it says 320 miles or 350 sometimes most scary part is when the car try to shake when you're try to take over on highway above 65 MPH how toyota find the solution for it my car just have 38k on meter when we took it to the toyota dealership they said everything is okay with the car and the sad part it is the dealership doesn't inform us that their is a recall on the fuel pump then they said we have diagnosed you're car their is nothing wrong so I asked them do my car gas a recall on it they said nope then I pulled up nhsta recall paperwork for my camry 2018 it's such a disappointment that dealership gamble with you're life that's all hope this matter will be looked into thank you
My automatic emergency braking system has been going off even when a car is nowhere near, today I was involved in an accident due to the automatic emergency braking system. When going to yield, the warning light came on, and it felt like the car stalled, I could not manually brake and it resulted in me rear ending the person in front of me.
Electronic malfunction occurred while driving. Power windows, air bags, windshield wipers, heads up display, climate control, lane assist, auto lights, seat warmers, lane assist and collision sensors not working. Since auto-lights feature not working, I had to manually turn on lights and after 20 minutes of driving, they shut off.
If you slow to a roll then try to accelerate, it jerks real bad like it does not know what gear to go into. Tapping from the engine bay that comes and goes. The brake assist feature cause my rotors to get warped right after replacing them. Lane keeping assist will yank you over into a turning lane if you aren't super careful.
The vehicle does a weird clocking noise when acceleration and as I break or go at a lower speed or higher speed the sound is less or more . This starts at a surten speed. Also when the car is on it does the noise like a clicking sounds ive read about the recalls on this models and im concern due to the same info the car are being called for recalls. Mines doing the same noise and problem never had this problem before when going on the freeway or highway now I notice it getting worse recall number -18v200000 also theres a light that indicates the front camara is of and it goes of and on on its own sometimes
Master control light on, not idling, wont start immediately after pumping gas, cuts of randomly when I stop and malfunction warning light for power steering

Car seems like the emergency brake is on but its not. When I drive off it pulls back and hesitates. The seatbelt doesnt always send the signal that iam wearing it which makes the car seat alarm go off. The car wont turn off when I press the button mulitiple times the AC cooling is loud along with the engine sound being also loud
The car applied the brakes very hard while traveling down a major thoroughfare with no objects or other vehicles nearby. I was running around 50mph and the collision avoidance activated and the car slowed to nearly 20mph.
I was driving the vehicle in cruise mode and suddenly warning and pre-collision system dashboard light came on together, and a message pops-up in the screen showing the cruise control is unavailable. The adaptive cruise control gets disabled and the car start dropping the speed unless controlled manually. After driving for a few miles the lights automatically go back to normal. Have taken the car to the dealership and they told me they have calibrated some sensors but I am still having the same problem.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota camry. The contact stated that the lane departure feature failed to operate. While driving, another vehicle pulled in front of the contact. The contact struck the front middle portion of the other vehicle. None of the air bags deployed. The driver sustained multiple bruises, a broken sternum, and whiplash and was transported to the hospital for medical attention. A police report was filed. The insurance company was notified of the crash, but had not yet inspected and diagnosed the cause of the failure. The vehicle was towed to a facility. A dealer had not inspected the vehicle yet. Malloy toyota (400 weems ln, winchester, va 22601, (866) 788-9507) was notified of the abnormal condition before and after the crash, but failed to provide any technical guidance. The manufacturer had issued 4 tsbs for lane departure however, the contact was uncertain if the failure was related to the tsb and they had not issued a recall campaign for a remedy. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 400.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 toyota camry. The contact stated that the blind spot sensor failed to operate properly after his girlfriend sratched the vehicle's bumper while reversing. The "blind spot sensor mirror detected" message appeared. Toyota of huntington (1030 e jericho turnpike, huntington station, ny 11746, (631) 423-6644) installed a new sensor, but the failure recurred the same week. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 21,514.
The crash detector system stop working for the first 15 minutes of driving it happen multiple times I was driving 40 mile per hour
3 times the collision prevention stop working while I was driving at the high way. You have to turn the car off and then turn it on to for the collision prevention system to work again. And this is so dangerous. The transmission sometimes glitch and not working properly and shifits like crazy. I feel it sometimes that car sounds not right because it should shift smoothly. Air condition when it on cold the fan can give good air streem which is good but when it on heat the fan is so slow and it doesn't give good air streaming. I was trying to find a way to report this to generate recall but I didn't know how until I found your website.
(hybrid mod) while traveling on an interstate in may , the rt rear tire blew out(odo 7,000). Seemed to be no reason, it just blew out. Then in july, again on an interstate, the lt rear tire blew(odo 12,000). Once again, no reason, just blew out. We we're told by firestone that the tires on my vehicle have been discontinued & I can not do a warranty claim because I did not purchase the tires from them, toyota did so toyota has to do the claim. Toyota tells me they do not warranty tires, firestone does & I have to go through firsetone for warranty claim. No one seems to want to address the fact that there are still 2 more tires (on the front) that could still blow out & cause me to have an accident. Dealer told me they couldn't help because I didn't keep the tires to show they were defective. The brakes have always been overly sensitive. The car then started braking (the collision safety feature) when there are no other vehicles, people, animals,etc in sight. It has happened on highways, city streets, straight roads, in curves,sunny days, rainy days,etc. The vehicle randomly decides to engage the braking safety system when it should not. All the dealer where I purchased the vehicle could offer as a suggestion was to turn that feature off! As if all that wasn't enough, while backing up & coming to a complete stop (but still in reverse) the car lunged back another foot or better causing me to collide with a basketball pole in my driveway. After that, when I pump fuel niw I have to hold the handle so it doesn't touch or lean against the bottom part of the neck hole. Otherwise, any fuel you try to put in it will flow right back out & run down the car to the ground. I have repeatedly asked dealer to deal with these issues & told them I don't feel like ithe vehicle is safe at this point. After months of run around & not returning my calls, dealer referred me to toyota today.

Worst choice ever iam never buying toyota again I drove a 2015 camry much better then the [xxx] 2018 camry they said it's better but I say it's cheaper and probably won't be as reliable as it's older version.. It suck to drive in the city , also the engine is super loud . Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
