MY '07 CAMRY HYBRID(CH) HAS STARTED TO EXPERIENCE BRAKE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. THE FIRST DOCUMENTED INCIDENT: 03/09/12. W/O WARNING, THE CH WILL SHUT DOWN AND THE "CHECK VSC" LIGHT APPEARS ON THE DASH. ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS LIGHT UP AS WELL. WHEN THIS HAPPENED, THERE WERE NO BRAKES, NO WARNING, ETC. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN "PARK", TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED IT, I WAS ABLE TO RESUME DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO DEALER TO HAVE THE CAR DIAGNOSED. THE DIAGNOSIS: NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, BRAKES, ETC(INV.#227594). OVER THE PAST 9 MONTHS, IT HAS OCCURRED A FEW MORE TIMES, USUALLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PULLING OUT OF THE GARAGE. WHEN IT HAPPENS,I TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, RESTART AND GO ON. ON 10/30/12 WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING 35MPH, THE CAR SHUT DOWN, THE "CHECK VSC" LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BRAKES COMPLETELY FAILED. SHE CAUGHT A LEFT TURN SIGNAL AND COASTED INTO A PARKING LOT. OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS HORRIFYING FOR HER AND OUR KIDS. I CALLED AAA AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO TOYOTA. MY SERVICE ADVISOR(SA) TOLD ME THEY HAVE BEGUN TO SEE THIS HAPPENING A LOT AND HE PREDICTED THE ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR (BA) FAILED. I TOLD HIM ABOUT THE INCIDENT IN MARCH, WHICH HE ACKNOWLEDGED KNOWING OF. 2 HOURS LATER HE CALLED TO CONFIRM THAT IT WAS THE BA. WE SPOKE ABOUT IT BEING A DEFECTIVE PART, HE AGREED AND WOULD CALL AND SPEAK TO TOYOTA NATIONAL(TN)TO SEE IF THEY COULD HELP OUT WITH THE $2200 REPAIR. THE NEXT DAY HE TOLD ME THAT TN WOULDN'T HELP, AND NEITHER WOULD THE DEALERSHIP. MY ONLINE RESEARCH DISCOVERED MANY CH HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. I DISCUSSED WITH THE SA THAT IF THE PART IS DEFECTIVE AND THEY ARE SEEING MORE AND MORE OF THIS, WHAT GUARANTEE IS THERE A NEW BA WOULDN'T REACT THE SAME WAY. HE COULDN'T GUARANTEE THAT IT WOULDN'T. I DECLINED TO HAVE THE REPAIR DONE, AAA TOWED VEHICLE TO MY HOME. THE SA SEEMED CERTAIN THAT A RECALL WAS COMING. THE CAR IS GARAGED, I HAVE THE REPAIR EST/DOCUMENT. *TR UPDATED 07/30/13*LJ

THIS IS IN FOLLOW UP TO INCIDENT ODI ID 10453342. AFTER FOUR SEPARATE BRAKE FAILURES AND SUBSEQUENT DELIVERIES OF THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE PROBLEM WAS DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY VALVE IN THE BRAKE ACTUATOR. SYMPTOMS: ACCUMULATOR PUMP RUNNING EVERY 10 TO 15 SECONDS WHEN IT SHOULD RUN ONLY OCCASIONALLY. DEALERSHIP STATES THAT DIAGNOSTICS REVEALED THAT NO BRAKING WAS AVAILABLE TO THE REAR WHEELS AT POINT OF FAILURE. THE ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT 55,218 MILES. TWO WEEKS SUBSEQUENT TO THE WARRANTY REPAIR, A FIFTH BRAKING FAILURE OCCURRED (OCTOBER 30, 2012). THIS TIME WITH A WARNING TONE (NOT HEARD ON PREVIOUS FAILURES). THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. DEALERSHIP STATES THE NEW ACTUATOR HAD FAILED DUE TO A FAULTY VOLTAGE REGULATOR. THE ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED AGAIN UNDER WARRANTY. 23 DAYS HAVE PASSED SINCE THE LAST FAILURE AND THE BRAKES ARE WORKING NORMALLY. IT SEEMS THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR (THE SQUARE ALUMINUM MODULE UNDER THE HOOD ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE WITH MANY HYDRAULIC LINES COMING OUT OF IT) IS A WEAK COMPONENT IN THE TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY HV. *TR

VSC SYSTEM, CHECK ENGINE, AND EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHTS COME ON AT THE SAME TIME THE BRAKES STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY. I WAS BRAKING AND THE BRAKE PEDDLE PUSHED BACK AT ME, RELEASING THE BRAKES. WHEN I CONTINUED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKES, THE USUAL RESISTANCE AND BRAKING POWER WAS GONE. I HAD TO PRESS DOWN AS HARD AS I COULD TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THIS IS INTERMITTENT AND TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR IS COLD. DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DISCOVER A PROBLEM AS THE COMPUTER DID NOT RECORD AN ERROR. INTERNET RESEARCH INDICATED OTHER TOYOTA HYBRID OWNERS EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM AND DETERMINED THE CAUSE WAS THE STROKE SENSOR.

2007 MODEL YEAR TOYOTA CAMRYS WERE MANUFACTURED USING A DASHBOARD MATERIAL THAT DETERIORATES WITH EXPOSURE TO SUNLIGHT. SPECIFICALLY, THE PLASTIC BECOMES VERY SHINY, VERY TACKY, AND EASY TO DAMAGE. WHEN THE SUN ANGLE IS CORRECT, THE LIGHT REFLECTS OFF THE SHINY PLASTIC, AND THEN REFLECTS OFF THE WINDSHIELD INTO THE DRIVER'S EYES, PRODUCING A GLARE THAT REPRESENTS, IN MY OPINION, A SAFETY HAZARD. A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF PLASTIC IS ALSO BEING DEPOSITED DAILY ON THE WINDSHIELD INNER SURFACE, PRODUCING A WHITISH HAZE THAT REDUCES VISIBILITY AND INCREASES SCATTERED LIGHT. NUMEROUS TOYOTA CAMRY (AND SOME LEXUS) OWNERS ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM, PRIMARILY IN LOCATIONS THAT RECEIVE MORE SUNLIGHT (FLORIDA, TEXAS, PUERTO RICO, AND HAWAII, FOR EXAMPLE, AS AN INTERNET SEARCH CAN EASILY SHOW; TO SEE A VIDEO, SEARCH ON YOUTUBE FOR "TOYOTA CAMRY STICKY DASHBOARD"). SOME 2008 MODEL YEAR TOYOTA CAMRYS ARE BEGINNING TO SHOW THE SAME PROBLEM. NOTE THAT 2007 WAS THE FIRST YEAR OF THE REDESIGNED CAMRY MODEL. MUCH OLDER CAMRYS ARE NOT SHOWING THIS PROBLEM, THUS IT SEEMS CLEAR THAT TOYOTA SWITCHED TO A DIFFERENT DASHBOARD MATERIAL STARTING WITH THE 2007 MODEL YEAR, BUT ONLY NOW IS IT BECOMING CLEAR THAT THE CHOSEN MATERIAL IS INAPPROPRIATE FOR THE INTENDED USE. TOYOTA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM FOR MONTHS, YET NO SAFETY RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED AS OF THIS WRITING. *TR
Official recalls
315V689000 · Visibility:power Window Devices And Controls
Oct 22, 2015
Toyota Motor Company (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 Tundra, Sequoia, Corolla, Corolla Matrix and Scion xB, 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid, 2007 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2006-2011 RAV4, 2006-2010 Yaris, and 2009-2010 Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. During the manufacturing of the Power Window Master Switch (PWMS), grease lubricant may have been inconsistently applied to the sliding electrical contacts.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the sliding electrical contacts are not protected by lubricant, debris and moisture that get into the switch may cause a short circuit and the switch assembly may overheat and melt, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the switch, applying a lubricant if no abnormality is found. If abnormality is found, the PWMS circuit board will be replaced, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 20, 2015. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is C0M.
12V491000 · Visibility:power Window Devices And Controls
Oct 10, 2012
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Camry, Camry Hybrid, RAV4, Corolla, Corolla Matrix, Tundra, Sequoia, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Yaris, Scion xB, Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. The power window master switch assemblies in some of these vehicles were built using a less precise process for lubricating the internal components of the switch assemblies. Irregularities in this lubrication process may cause the power window master switch assemblies to malfunction and overheat.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the switch overheats, it may melt, possibly resulting in a fire.
Remedy: Toyota will notify its owners, and dealers will inspect the switch and apply a special grease that inhibits heat build up or replace any switch damaged by the defect, free of charge. Toyota owners that experience a problem with a switch should not attempt to make repairs, but should contact their Toyota dealer or the Toyota Customer Experience Center at 1-800-331-4331. General Motors will contact the Pontiac Vibe owners affected by this recall and GM dealers will inspect and repair switches as necessary. Those owners may contact Pontiac Customer Care at 1-800-762-2737.
09V388000 · Vehicle Speed Control:accelerator Pedal
Oct 5, 2009
TOYOTA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2010 PASSENGER VEHICLES. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL CAN GET STUCK IN THE WIDE OPEN POSITION DUE TO ITS BEING TRAPPED BY AN UNSECURED OR INCOMPATIBLE DRIVER'S FLOOR MAT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A STUCK OPEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL MAY RESULT IN VERY HIGH VEHICLE SPEEDS AND MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO STOP THE VEHICLE, WHICH COULD CAUSE A CRASH, SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Remedy: TOYOTA FILED AN AMENDED DEFECT REPORT ON NOVEMBER 25, 2009, STATING THAT DEALERS WILL MODIFY THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND, ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, ALTER THE SHAPE OF THE FLOOR SURFACE UNDER THE PEDAL. THESE CHANGES ADDRESS THE RISK OF PEDAL ENTRAPMENT DUE TO INTERFERENCE WITH THE FLOOR MAT. REDESIGNED ACCELERATOR PEDALS WILL BECOME AVAILABLE BEGINNING IN APRIL 2010 AND DEALERS WILL REPLACE ANY MODIFIED PEDAL WITH THE NEW PEDAL IF DESIRED. ALSO, DEALERS WILL REPLACE ANY GENUINE TOYOTA OR LEXUS ALL-WEATHER FLOOR MATS WITH REDESIGNED ALL-WEATHER MATS, OR REPURCHASE THE PREVIOUS MATS FROM OWNERS WHO DO NOT WANT THE NEW ONES. ADDITIONALLY, SOFTWARE MODIFICATIONS WILL BE INSTALLED ON CAMRY, AVALON AND LEXUS ES 350, IS 350 AND IS 250 MODELS THAT WILL ENSURE THAT THE BRAKE OVERRIDES THE ACCELERATOR IN THE EVENT BOTH BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS ARE APPLIED. TOYOTA WILL BEGIN MAILING LETTERS TO OWNERS ON DECEMBER 31, 2009. OWNERS MAY CONTACT TOYOTA AT 1-800-331-4331, LEXUS AT 1-800-255-3987.

On June 25, 2014, Toyota initiated a Warranty Enhancement Program (ZE1) to extend warranty coverage for the brake actuator assembly and skid control ECU/brake pedal stroke sensor in certain MY 2007 to 2011 Toyota Camry hybrid vehicles. Toyota's program covers repairs related to two conditions:internal malfunctions of the Brake Actuator assembly; and overly sensitive monitoring logic for the Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor.Primary coverage provides warranty enhancement until November 30, 2015, with no mileage limitation.After the primary coverage period ends, secondary coverage is provided for 10 years or 150,000 miles from the date of first use, whichever occurs first.In addition, on July 10, 2014, Toyota initiated Limited Service Campaign E0U to replace the Brake Reservoir Tank in MY 2007 through 2011 Toyota Camry hybrid vehicles.The LSC will be available until June 30, 2017, and will only be available at an authorized Toyota dealer.ODI's analysis of failure data determined that the majority of records were related to the Brake Actuator condition, which appeared to be the causal component in 734 complaints/field reports and 864 warranty claims.The Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor (80 reports/189 claims) and Brake Reservoir Tank (91 reports/44 claims) conditions were identified in far fewer records.Analysis of the failure data indicate that each condition provides warning prior to any reduction in power assisted braking, with less than 10 percent of all reports and claims involving diagnostic codes or complaint narratives indicating increased braking effort or reduced brake effectiveness.In addition, most of the incidents in which reduced braking assist appears to have occurred involved operation in a reduced assist mode and not a sudden, complete loss of power assisted braking.ODI assessed reduced assist mode in a subjective driving evaluation which indicated that the brake system provided normal and harddeceleration capability with reasonable increases in pedal effort.Less than one percent of reports and claims analyzed by ODI included evidence indicating a complete loss of power assisted braking occurred and this mode requires operation for a significant period of time with multiple audible and visual warnings.Repair expense was cited in many of the complaints reviewed by ODI, especially those related to the Brake Actuator, which had repair costs exceeding $3,000 according to some complaints.High repair cost appears to have been a factor in the only crash identified by ODI for the fault conditions identified by Toyota, which involved a Brake Actuator failure that was diagnosed but the owner declined repair approximately eight months prior to the reported crash incident.This preliminary evaluation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding that a safety-related defect does not exist.For additional information regarding this investigation, including analysis of the Brake Actuator, Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor, and Brake Reservoir Tank fault conditions and failure experience, see Attachment A to this closing resume.

Toyota's program covers repairs related to two conditions:internal malfunctions of the Brake Actuator assembly; and overly sensitive monitoring logic for the Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor.Primary coverage provides warranty enhancement until November 30, 2015, with no mileage limitation.After the primary coverage period ends, secondary coverage is provided for 10 years or 150,000 miles from the date of first use, whichever occurs first.In addition, on July 10, 2014, Toyota initiated Limited Service Campaign E0U to replace the Brake Reservoir Tank in MY 2007 through 2011 Toyota Camry hybrid vehicles.The LSC will be available until June 30, 2017, and will only be available at an authorized Toyota dealer.ODI's analysis of failure data determined that the majority of records were related to the Brake Actuator condition, which appeared to be the causal component in 734 complaints/field reports and 864 warranty claims.The Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor (80 reports/189 claims) and Brake Reservoir Tank (91 reports/44 claims) conditions were identified in far fewer records.Analysis of the failure data indicate that each condition provides warning prior to any reduction in power assisted braking, with less than 10 percent of all reports and claims involving diagnostic codes or complaint narratives indicating increased braking effort or reduced brake effectiveness.In addition, most of the incidents in which reduced braking assist appears to have occurred involved operation in a reduced assist mode and not a sudden, complete loss of power assisted braking.ODI assessed reduced assist mode in a subjective driving evaluation which indicated that the brake system provided normal and harddeceleration capability with reasonable increases in pedal effort.Less than one percent of reports and claims analyzed by ODI included evidence indicating a complete loss of power assisted braking occurred and this mode requires operation for a significant period of time with multiple audible and visual warnings.Repair expense was cited in many of the complaints reviewed by ODI, especially those related to the Brake Actuator, which had repair costs exceeding $3,000 according to some complaints.High repair cost appears to have been a factor in the only crash identified by ODI for the fault conditions identified by Toyota, which involved a Brake Actuator failure that was diagnosed but the owner declined repair approximately eight months prior to the reported crash incident.This preliminary evaluation is closed.The closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding that a safety-related defect does not exist.For additional information regarding this investigation, including analysis of the Brake Actuator, Brake Pedal Stroke Sensor, and Brake Reservoir Tank fault conditions and failure experience, see Attachment A to this closing resume.
