I am not sure if this is a vehicle or tire issue, but this car is a 2026 Camry nightshade edition, and it is experiencing significant Tramlining due to its combination of wheels and tires. I feel the manufacturer should do something to address this issue.

Everyone’s safety is at risk because these monitors are failing, and they aren’t doing anything about it. I asked for a loaner I don’t feel safe driving my brand new car. The last recall was a Risk of fire. So they got me a loaner, this one is only risking a crash so they don’t feel responsible. This cant be legal for them to make me drive around a car that may lose its hazards blinkers and speedometer at any time.especially since my other monitor is already working intermittently. I have zero faith in this car, and Toyota is refusing to prevent accidents by selling working vehicles, or providing a working vehicle until it is ready.

While driving my 2026 Toyota Camry LE Hybrid at approximately 10 mph in a parking lot, the vehicle accelerated on its own without any input from me. I applied hard braking to bring the vehicle under control. No collision occurred. The specific component or system that failed is UNKNOWN — I suspect the speed control, powertrain, or electrical throttle system, but this has not yet been diagnosed. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety and the safety of others were put at risk because the vehicle accelerated unexpectedly at low speed in a parking lot, an environment with pedestrians, parked vehicles, and other close-proximity hazards. I had to brake hard to stop it, which could have resulted in a collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or a fixed object had I not been able to react in time. The problem has not yet been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer. I reported the incident to Toyota the day after it occurred; Toyota opened case number 260811002989 and scheduled a diagnostic inspection appointment. As of this filing, that inspection has not yet taken place. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms before or during the incident. The dashboard showed no malfunction indicators at any point.

The car is owned by AVIS Car Rental. I happened to be driving this vehicle in the downtown Chicago area with only 11,820 miles on it the airbag light turned on and the passenger active status light for the airbag just completely turned off not indicating if the passenger airbag was enabled or disabled. As soon as I turned off the vehicle and turn it back on the airbag light didn't turn on anymore and everything started working as normal again. On different groups on Facebook I have seen people posting about the same issue with their own Camrys. Being a big company or corporation most likely no one will take the time to report the issue but I rather do my own part and do it for them. It's a 2026 Toyota Camry LE

This is the only way I can get my message to you that I know of. It is very distracting having to deal with all the ADAS systems. They are actually a distraction for me, taking my eyes off the road when I most need them on the road to figure out why the "nanny" alarms are going off. I don't know why these things are being added to vehicles, but we have to turn them off as much as we can. If I get in an accident, it will be because of these features not because I am not paying attention to the road. Thank you for letting me share my perspective.

I encountered an accident on 6/6/2026 due to a sudden acceleration of this car. I stepped on the gas pedal slightly to move the car approximately one foot to the curve to park, when all of a sudden the car suddenly accelerated full force that it jumped over the curve and hit the wall of the restaurant. I asked Toyota to investigate the content of the black box. Toyota told me that the result and resolution should be out in 30 to 45 days. It’s been more than 45 days and I have been calling them and Toyota still cannot provide with the formalized result of their investigation. The data from the vehicle’s black box was obtained on 6/19/2026. My car is still on the repair shop. I want to know how the government can help me . I am convinced that this vehicle is defective, it has only 1,600 miles.
