2015 Toyota Camry

MY ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT WENT OUT IN THREE YEARS ...NOT ABLE TO PROGRAM ANYTHING OR LISTEN TO RADIO. I UNDERSTAND THAT TOYOTA HAD A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM WITH MODELS FROM 2014 AND 2015.... WHICH MY CAR FALLS IN THERE. THEY ARE NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THIS PROBLEM AND SAID THEY DONT HAVE A RECALL. HOWEVER TOYOTA DID SEND OUT NOTIFICATION TO MECHANICS TELLING THEM THERE WAS ISSUES WITH THESE ECUS . STANIONARY

AS I DRIVE DOWN A ROAD MOSTLY WHEN CAR IS FIRST STARTED, THE STEERING GOES VERY ERRATIC. IT GETS A WIDE RANGE OF MOVEMENT AND FEELS AS IF I AM LOSING CONTROL. THIS IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN AS I DRIVE IT. MY HUSBAND LOOKED IT UP AND THERE HAD BEEN SOME RECALLS FOR STEERING IN THE 2015 CAMRY, BUT, NO RECALL FOR MY CAR WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN #.

TOOK CAR TO TOYOTA SERVICE STATION FOR MAINTENANCE. SERVICE STATION HAD A HARD TIME GETTING HOOD OPENED. THE HOOD LATCH ASSEMBLY WAS RUSTED. I WAS RECOMMENDED TO BUY A NEW ONE, ALSO ADVISED THAT NEXT TIME TO GET IT OPENED IT MAY HAVE TO BE BROKEN OFF. IT MAY BE POSSIBLE THAT THE HOOD MAY GET STUCK IN THE OPENED POSITION, OR COME OPENED. I DID NOT PURCHASE IT. I BELIEVE THAT THE PROBLEM IS A VEHICLE DEFECT THAT SHOULD NOT OCCUR AND SHOULD BE CORRECTED.
