2015 Toyota Camry

I PULLED UP TO A FAST FOOD DRIVE THRU AND APPLIED MY BRAKES. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND IN DESPERATION I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK ONLY TO HEAR 5-6 LOUD CLICKS AS I BUMPED THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS WAS A 1 OR 2 MPH COLLISION RESULTING IN VERY LITTLE DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. HOWEVER, THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME IN THIS NEW CAMRY WITH 7200 MILES ON IT. THE FIRST TIME WAS WHEN I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY TWO MONTHS AGO. THIS TIME THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR AND I BACKED OVER A CEMENT RETAINING WALL IN MY NEIGHBOR'S YARD. I CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO PULL ME OUT BECAUSE THE REAR WHEELS WERE HANGING IN MID AIR AND IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO GET ENOUGH TRACTION TO GET MY CAR RIGHTED UP. THE OTHER TIME WAS ANOTHER LOW SPEED EVENT AT ANOTHER DRIVE THROUGH. NO ONE WAS IN FRONT OF ME AND ALL WAS OKAY . I FILED A CASE WITH TOYOTA CORPORATE WILL NOT PAY FOR TOWING OR RENTAL AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY PHONE CALLS

WHILE DRIVING MY BRAKE ALARM WENT OFF AND THE BRAKE LIGHT WOULD NOT GO OFF. THE BRAKES WHERE HARD TO PRESS AND TO STOP. I TOOK THE CAR TO TOYOTA AND FOUND THAT THE "BRAKE BOOSTERS" HAVE FAILED. I WAS TOLD TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT NOT ENOUGH CARS TO DO A RECALL. THEY ONLY POSTED A BULLETIN FOR THEM . I CAN'T BELIEVE MY LIFE WAS IN THEIR HANDS AND WAS NEVER TOLD BECAUSE NOT ENOUGH PEOPLE ARE HAVING AN ISSUE. THEY REPLACE THE PART BUT NOW I FEEL UNSAFE IN A NEW CAR...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING IN THE SNOW, THE WHEEL WELLS BECAME CLOGGED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO EXPERIENCE STEERING FAILURES. DUE TO THE FAILURE, THE BRAKES FAILED TO WORK. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS WAS A RECURRING FAILURE DURING BAD WEATHER. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE REAR BRAKES SEIZED AND THE CALIPER BRACKETS MALFUNCTIONED, CAUSING HOT SPOTS ON THE REAR ROTORS. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100.

THREE DAYS AFTER WE PURCHASED THE CAR, WE WERE BACKING OUT OF OUR DRIVEWAY, BRAKE TO STOP BEFORE PULLING INTO THE STREET AND THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP. WE HEARD A CLANKING NOISE AND IT TOOK EXTRAORDINARY PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES TO STOP THE CAR. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER, WHO, AFTER INSPECTING THE CAR AND DRIVING IT FOR A DAY OR TWO COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. THIS HAPPENED A SECOND TIME APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS LATER UNDER THE SAME CONDITIONS. AT THAT TIME, THE DEALER'S SERVICE MANAGER SAW A NOTICE FROM THE CORPORATE OFFICE INDICATING THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN SOME 2015 CAMRY'S WHICH WERE MANUFACTURED DURING A CERTAIN PERIOD OF TIME. THE PROBLEM INVOLVED THE "BRAKE BOOSTER" WHICH WAS REPLACED IN OUR CAR AFTER THE SECOND BRAKE FAILURE. WITHIN ANOTHER WEEK, THE SAME THING HAPPENED TWICE AGAIN. WE REFUSED TO TAKE THE CAR BACK AND TOYOTA BOUGHT BACK THE CAR AND REFUNDED THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE CAR. *TR

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND MADE A LOUD GRINDING SOUND. THE DASHBOARD FLASHED WARNING LIGHTS "BRAKE" AND A 2ND WARNING OF "CHECK BRAKE SYSTEM". I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND CONSULTED THE MANUAL WHICH SAID STOP IMMEDIATELY AND CONTACT TOYOTA DEALER, WHICH I DID. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO AUTO NATION IN WESTON, FL (I WAS VERY CLOSE WHEN THIS HAPPENED). BY THE TIME I REACHED THE DEALER THE BRAKE LIGHTS WENT OUT. THEY CALLED LATER AND INFORMED ME NOTHING WAS WRONG. I ASKED THEM TO RECHECK AS I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG SINCE THE BRAKE DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY AND MADE A TERRIBLE NOISE. THEY KEPT THE CAR UNTIL THE FOLLOWING MORNING TO RECHECK THE CAR, AND AGAIN SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. THEY INFORMED ME THE CAR DIDN'T KNOW IT DID ANYTHING WRONG, MY REPLY WAS THAT I KNEW THE CAR DID SOMETHING WRONG. (THE SERVICE TICKET READS: "PERFORMED HEALTH CHECK, NO PROBLEM FOUND, NO REPAIRS PERFORMED") I AM VERY RELUCTANT TO DRIVE THE CAR NOW. *TR
