1994 Toyota Camry

TL*THE CONTACT OWNED A 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED. A REPRESENTATIVE FROM TOYOTA INSPECTED THE BRAKES AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. THE CONTACT CANNOT REMEMBER WHAT REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE BRAKES; HOWEVER, THEY HAVE CONTINUED TO FAIL AND CAUSED A CRASH TO OCCUR WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH. WHEN THE CONSUMER APPLIED THE BRAKES, THE VEHICLE DID NOT STOP AND CONSEQUENTLY, SHE CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. UPDATE 04/30/10.*JB

APPROX 20 TIMES OVER APPROX THE LAST 2 TO 4 YEARS, MY 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY EXPERIENCED EITHER SUDDEN ACCELERATION OR LACK OF APPROPRIATE DECELERATION. FORTUNATELY, I REALIZED THE FLOOR MAT WAS PRESSING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. PULLING BACK THE MAT WITH MY FOOT INSTANTLY RESOLVED THE PROBLEM IN EVERY INSTANCE. AFTER THE PUBLICITY REGARDING LATER YEAR MODELS, I FINALLY REMOVED THE FLOOR MAT ENTIRELY AND HAVE HAD NO FURTHER EPISODES. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS HAPPENED IN MY 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY, BUT THE RECALL HAS INVOLVED ONLY 2007 AND LATER MODELS. THE FLOOR MAT SAYS "CAMRY" ON THE FRONT. ON THE BACK IT SAYS "LEFT HAND." UNDER THAT IT SAYS "00208" WITH A SPACE, FOLLOWED BY "32921". TO THE RIGHT OF THIS IS A GRID WITH YEARS 94, 95, AND 96 EACH FOLLOWED BY 12 SQUARES. THE YEAR 94 WITH THE FIRST BOX HAS A DOT IN THE MIDDLE, PRESUMABLY MADE IN JANUARY 1994. BELOW THIS IT SAYS "GB 6" THE MAT HAS BECOME STIFF OVER THE YEARS SO THAT THE RIGHT SIDE, INCLUDING THE AREA NEAR THE GAS PEDAL, DOES NOT LIE FLAT ON THE FLOOR, ALLOWING IT TO EASILY RIDE ON TOP OF AND PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL. *TR

ON AUGUST 10, 2009 I GOT INTO MY 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY VEHICLE, PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND THE CAR ACCELERATED AT THE SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH IN REVERSE. THIS CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE CAMRY, PROPERTY DAMAGE AND PERSONAL TRAUMA. I NOTIFIED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS IN TORRANCE, CA AND THEY HAD THE CAR INSPECTED BUT NOTHING WAS DONE TO COMPENSATE THE DAMAGES. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1994 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE BACKING THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THERE WAS AN UNINTENDED AND AGGRESSIVE ACCELERATION. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A NEIGHBOR'S FENCE AND TREE. IN ADDITION, A WATER PUMP WAS DAMAGED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED SEVERE DAMAGE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 200,000. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED ANOTHER SAFETY COMPLAINT, BECAUSE THE PRIOR COMPLAINT WAS MISPLACED. UPDATED 11/06/09 *BF UPDATED 11/09/09*JB

1994 TOYOTA CAMRY HAD BRAKE FAILURE. CONSUMER STATES THAT THE VEHICLE SPED UP INSTEAD OF STOPPING AND WANTS TO KNOW IF THERE ARE ANY RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE. *NJ THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS REAR ENDED SO SEVERELY, IT CAUSED THE LEFT REAR WHEEL TO PROTRUDE THROUGH THE BACK SEAT. WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES, THEY FAILED AND CONSEQUENTLY HE HIT AN ELECTRIC POST. A REPORT FROM THE MECHANIC STATED THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD JAMMED AND THE BRAKE LINKAGE WAS COMPLETE, BUT NOT MOVABLE AND ALSO JAMMED. *JB UPDATED 04/12/10
