1994 Toyota Camry

INTERMITTANT ENGINE/ELECTRICAL COMPLETE FAILURE. NO MATTER IF IDLE, ACCELERATING, OR DECCELERATING. WEATHER NOT A FACTOR. NO WARNING OF FAILURE, USUALLY STARTS BACK UP AFTER PULLING OVER. HAVE TAKEN IT TO MAITA TOYOTA ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS BUT UNABLE TO DUPLICATE. DEALER FAILED TO ENTER ORIGINAL INCIDENT (OCCURED APPRX 3-5 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE PRIOR TO WARRANTY END) IN THEIR SYSTEM. HAD THEM CHECK IT AT 15K CHECKUP.

ALL ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ON THIS CAR WAS DONE BY MYSELF. ALL FLUIDS, FILTERS ETC., WERE CHANGED IN ACCORDANCE WITH TOYOTA'S MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE EITHER ON SCHEDULE OR AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE A RECEIPT FOR TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FILTER CHANGES WHICH I PERFORMED MYSELF SINCE VEHICLE WAS NEW, TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO HONOR THE 5 YEAR, 60,000 MILE WARRANTY. IT WOULD BE OBVIOUS TO ANYONE WHO LOOKED AT MY CAR THAT IT HAS IN FACT, BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. IT IS 6 YEARS OLD, STILL LOOKS LIKE NEW INSIDE AND OUT AND ALL OTHER FLUIDS ARE CLEAN AND BEEN REGULARLY CHANGED AS WELL. I PURCHASED A TOYOTA BECAUSE OF THE VEHICLE AND COMPANY REPUTATION. I THINK IT'S FAIRLY OBVIOUS WHAT I FEEL ABOUT TOYOTA'S SERVICE REPUTATION AT THIS POINT. I HAVE SENT SEVERAL REGISTERED LETTERS TO ALL COMPANY EXECS, CEOS, ETC. ALSO, THE BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU, THE DEPT. OF CONSUMER AFFAIRS, ACTION LINE HERE IN CHARLESTON AS WELL AS A FEW OTHERS. THANKS TO ALL FOR LISTENING.

POWER STEERING LEAKING, ENGINE STOPS RUNNING WHEN GOING THOUGH WATER AND IS SPLASHED UP IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT.ALSO, TWO POWER WINDOW REGULATORS INOPERATIVE. SAMETIMES WAS TOLD THE RUBBER SEAL WAS TOO TIGH., WATER PUMP LEAKING, ENGINE OVERHEATED CAUSE WATER CAP (1994). THE VALVE COVERS WAS LEAKING OIL IN 1998, COULD IT BE FROM OVERHEATING ? MY SON HAS THE SAME YEAR AND TYPE CAMRY AND HIS POWER STEERING PUMP/WATER PUMP LEAKED BUT WAS FOUND EAILER THAN MINE UNDER 60000 MILES. *AK
