While driving the vehicle in high winds, wind and air can be heard entering the cabin near the front of the drivers side door. Multiple heavy gusts of wind caused the car to move into the other lane and had a negative effect on steering the vehicle. Toyota denies there is something wrong with the door seals or design of the vehicle, but this is a safety hazard when driving in high sustained winds of 15MPH or more.

While parking my car in a parking spot at work I backed up a few feet to straighten the car out, when I shifted back into drive and transitioned from brake to accelerator pedal the car suddenly accelerated at a high rate of speed and hit the building totaling the car. I did not push the pedal down to make it accelerate that fast. I received a concussion and a broken sternum. If this had happened in traffic or in an area where people were present it could have been much worse. Toyota had the on board computer analyzed, and they say that there is no fault of the car. State farm is in the process of picking the car up due to the total loss. There were no warning lights or messages prior to the incident.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? -The FCTA (Front Cross Traffic Alert) is a system that is overly sensitive and gives constant distracting false alerts while driving. Vehicle is available for inspection upon request. This has been an ongoing issue that I have not been able to resolve since buying the vehicle new from the dealership. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? -The FCTA system is highly distracting visual and audio alert to driving due to constant false alerts when turning onto traffic right after a car passes in front of the vehicle. The FCTA system can only temporarily be disabled as every time the car is turned on this system is re-enables thus not respecting driver decision to turn of the FCTA system. Even at the lowest sensitivity setting of (Later) the system will still give false alerts. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? -I have talked with the Toyota dealership, and I have been informed there is no way to permanently turn off the FCTA system Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? -No, this vehicle has NOT been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? -No, there are no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure

B-Pillar that houses drivers side seatbelt has a persistent rattling noise. I am afraid that something is loose inside and seatbelt will fail. A bolt, screw or washer sounds loose inside. It has been repaired 2 times. Taken back to dealership 3 times since first 2 repairs but Toyota claims unable to replicate. The seatbelt does not tight across my torso when I brake. Videos of defect have been provided. Active repair case with Gulf States Toyota. Claims manager Andre has called Northshore Toyota to attempt assist with repair. Headliner or glass panoramic sunroof is loose and rattling. It has been repaired 2 times. Taken back to dealership 3 times since first 2 repairs but Toyota claims unable to replicate. The box that houses lighting buttons above back seat and one speaker above driver's head is rattling and loose. I do not know if it is the glass above headliner causing the rattling. Glass may break while driving over bumps if it is not properly secured or air sealed. Passenger and driver's seat have defective lumbar components inside. Causes a safety distraction to driver. When vehicle stops or starts it hits or bumps driver or passenger. This is a documented defect of 2025 Camrys.

The 7 inch instrument panel went completely blank upon startup. The vehicle was inspected by a Toyota dealer and a temporary fix was implemented (unplugging battery). My safety was at risk due to the absence of information present on instrument panel such as speed, fuel gauge, turn signal, and all other information displayed. There were no warning signs or notices. I understand there is a recall (25TBO8) for the 12.3 inch instrument panel but I am experiencing the same thing with my 7 inch instrument panel.

While driving my 2025 Toyota Camry, the infotainment/navigation display screen (center console multimedia system) will randomly and sporadically shut down completely, leaving the screen blank without warning. This has happened multiple times, including while I was backing up and relying on the backup camera, creating an unsafe situation by eliminating visibility. When the screen goes blank while driving, I lose access to navigation, vehicle settings, and other safety-related features, which increases the risk of distraction and potential accidents. There are no warning lamps, error messages, or symptoms prior to the failure and it occurs suddenly. I reported the issue to my Toyota dealership, and they acknowledged it as a factory issue, but I have not been given a timeline for a fix, which has been very frustrating. The vehicle is still available for inspection upon request. I have also seen numerous reports online from other 2025 Camry owners experiencing the same issue, which suggests this may be a widespread defect.

awd hybrid vehicle makes a noise at speeds under 20mph , that sounds like an electric motor or bearing - salesman said the noise is a mandated law by nhtsa ? or ? month later the maintenance tech Forman took it for a test drive and said the same thing . that the noise was created (by a speaker ?) so the vehicle can be heard at low speeds / below 20 mph . i asked where the speaker is , he said he didn't know ! i asked if he could show me it on a diagnostics screen , he again refused . the noise sounds exactly like an electric motor . mg1 , mg2 ? i can't hear the noise when backing out of a driveway or similar low speed situations ? i need to verify if this is true - is there an actual law that the vehicle has to make a noise ? and it was okayed to use a noise that sounds like the hybrid electric motor or bearing ? even if this is true the computer logic should be changed so that the sound pulses so that it is obviously a speaker and not a mechanical issue . ( like no grease ) and it should always work when it is most needed , backing up and slow driving / all the time under 20 mph . service department should plug in a diagnostic scanner and prove to me that a speaker is making the noise . * why is this a safety issue ? because if they are lying , eventually ( when it is out of warranty ) this vehicle will break down . are ALL 2025 Toyota hybrids making some kind of noise ? and if it is a noise created by a speaker - Prove It are all 2025 Camrys making this same noise ? maybe they all have the same mechanical problem ? why wait till there is a crash , fire , or an accident ? as in the next section - Additional Details . and again if it is a legitimate noise generated for safety . at the least change the computer logic so it pulses and doesn't sound like a bad motor generator bearing . And have the maintenance techs trained to know where the speaker actually is . i don't want to share my personal information with toyota . if they are lying
