2015 Toyota Camry

Intermittent EPS warning light illuminates during highway driving with steering wheel lock-up subsequently followed by a reset of certain electrically powered items associated with but not necessarily limited to the following systems: 1. Stability Control System warning indication 2. TPMS light 3. Radio power cycles 4. Check engine light. After turning the car off and then back on again these issues clear initially, but will intermittently happen at random durations of time anywhere from an additional 1 to 3 hours of driving. I've been discussing with Toyota Customer Service, who has known issues with the 2015 Toyota Camry under NHTSA Campaign ID: 15V144000, but they are trying to tell me that it only applies to V6 and Hybrid 2015 Camry's. I feel that this is also applicable to my vehicle VIN: [XXX] . I feel Toyota is refusing to acknowledge this critical safety issue affecting more 2015 Toyota Camry vehicles. I've never had an issue like this with 5 other previously owned vehicles. When asked if I could pay for the fix myself they informed me that it is not possible without a recall! My Toyota dealer is refusing to fix the issue and Toyota Customer Service hasn't responded in over 3 weeks to my inquiry.

BOUGHT WITH 22K MILES ABOUT 1 1/2 YEARS AGO. THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED AND THE SPEEDOMETER ISSUES HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PRESENT. WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL (UNDER 45 SUBURBAN AND URBAN STREETS) THE CAR SOMETIMES CANNOT REGULATE ON SLIGHT INCLINES AND SPEEDS UP BY UP TO 5 MPH OVER SETTING AND DOESN'T DECELERATE. SEVERAL TIMES IT'S DONE IT ON FLAT ROADS. IT'S NEVER DONE THIS ON THE FREEWAY EVEN COMING UP SLOPES. IT'S RARE THAT MY DIGITAL SPEED READING IS THE SAME AS MY SET CRUISE CONTROL SPEED. MY DIGITAL SPEED READING ALSO USUALLY DIFFERS FROM MY SPEEDOMETER BY ABOUT 2-4 MPH ALSO, SOMETIME LAST SUMMER AN ISSUE WITH MY BRAKES HAS BEEN OCCURRING AND IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. WHEN FIRST STARTING MY CAR (I NOTICE IT ON DAMP OR DEWY MORNINGS) I CAN HEAR MY BRAKES AS I'M BACKING DOWN MY SLIGHTLY SLOPED, CEMENT DRIVEWAY. I PUT MY CAR IN REVERSE AND BARELY TAP THE GAS BECAUSE I GO VERY SLOWLY BECAUSE WE HAVE A SHORT DRIVEWAY (35-40FT TOTAL) AND A LITTLE LIP AT THE ENTRANCE WHERE THE DRIVEWAY MEETS OUR CULDESAC. IT'S NOT EVERY MORNING AND I'VE NEVER NOTICED IT ANY OTHER TIMES. SOUNDS LIKE WHEN BRAKE PADS ARE WEARING DOWN AND FEELS ALMOST SPONGY WHEN PRESSING BRAKE PEDAL. NO SQUEALING OR CHIRPING. IVE HAD MY BRAKES CHECKED TWICE AND THEY'RE IN GOOD SHAPE. *CURRENT MILEAGE IS APPROX 42K

TOYOTA INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND SAID IT SHOWED ACCELERATION AND BRAKING BUT DENIED RESPONSIBILITY.

TAKATA RECALL- I NOTICED THE LAST WEEK AS I'M DRIVING MY SPEED FEELS AS IF IT'S DECREASING BUT THE SPEED ODOMETER IS NOT DECREASING AND WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL ( LEFT AND RIGHT TURNS) IT MAKING SCREECHING SOUNDS, AT FIRST THE SOUNDS WAS LIGHT BUT YOU CAN HEAR IT BUT TODAY (8-3-18) AS I TURN IN THE GROCERY STORE PARKING LOT IT WAS VERY LOUD AND I BARELY WAS TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL. ONCE I GOT BACK INTO THE CAR, CUT THE IGNITION ON AND BACKED OUT THERE WAS NO SCREECHING SOUND BUT AS I'M DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE HEAD HOME THE SPEED STARTS BACK DECREASING A LITTLE, WHEN I TURNED INTO MY DIVE WAY THE SCREECHING SOUND STARTED BACK.
