2018 Toyota Camry

My panoramic sunroof has a defect , my sunroof stopped working only a few months after having my car , I’ve Spoke with many other people with the same car and it’s common. I had a warranty on my car but they wouldn’t cover the cables for the setup to the roof , and it’s $10,000 at Toyota to get it fixed and I’m having transmission problems . I keep my maintenance up to date on my car , I’ve also done my research and transmission failure is also common on this vehicle ! My car is barely over 100,000 miles . I’m very disappointed in Toyota and I won’t be purchasing another ! Can honestly say this is the worse car I’ve had !

My Camry has received two professional transmission services as per the manufacturer recommendation, within suggested timeframes as it is now 176k. The transmission ( surely this is not something new to hear) Has FAILED. No prior sign or code. THIS VEHICLE DIED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY! It stopped automatically shifting and would not accelerate. There have been other owners of this same car, year ect. THAT HAVE LOST TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING!!!! Want to get to the bottom? HOW MANY 18CAMRYS MAKE IT TO 300k or even 200k without a new transmission. Most die 65k !! Lemon Come on. Toyota mechanics, YouTube, Toyota nation, dealerships, it is a well known fact that the 18 Camrys being that they cheaper out on so many parts, and added this new transmission, they’re known for failure! [XXX]. This company is [XXX] people. With jobs, kids, and now you’ve got to fork out minimum 6k and wait for 3-6 months to have car back??? How many people have been homeless due to this? 👋 I had a job and a home, boss wouldn’t let me work from home! I’ve rode a bicycle to work, in Florida to the next town over. Even with a loan, I’m out a car for months, so how many loans offer a no pay for 6 months? I’m hungry. Most people trans died in the 65k This is a rip off. The car can give back its safety award. The brakes gave out on me. The oil pan The brakes The trans The fuel pump. And the NOTORIOUS front bumpers. They come un snapped in every newer body style Carolla and Camry. Wing out beside fenders. And collision syste I’ve had people beside me in the same model car take a pic of my quick release snaps that I used to safely secure the bumper. This car is a lemon! Mine is a unicorn with trans failure despite the maintained by a local aamco owner (transmission specialist) trans dying at 178k “wow that is impressive!” Are you guys going to do anything? Or has Toyota paid you off? No one gives a heck about consumers. We’re the modern day native Americans . INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INF

The hood doesn't stay open. The hood uses two gas struts to be opened and they failed causing the hood to slam into my head and neck. The hood doesn't have a prop up bar which can keep the hood propped open. My car is a 2018 Toyota Camry Hybrid with 70,000 miles on it. The hood was opened all the way for 5 minutes before it slammed shut on me.

I am not sure why Toyota decided to set the front bumper quite low compared to other similar sized sedans from different brands out there. In the almost 4 years since I've owned this car I have had multiple scratches and scrapes on the underside of the front bumper; it's ridiculous. A very small dip in the road most of the time leads to scratches which I can feel while driving. The only way to not feel this scraping sound is to approach the dip extremely slow at around 5 mph, which is a safety concern because I don't want anyone ramming into my car from behind. Certain roads I need to pass when I get home have truly terrible construction to the point where I feel like I'm driving my car across a rocky road. I've driven other similar sedans and I don't even feel scraping along the bottom side of the front bumper when approaching a steep dip. I just can't believe how someone in the designs team at Toyota could possibly OK such a poor design. No scratches are visible on my car until you reach the front bumper which is a total disaster. In fact, much of the paint has been scraped off clean and you can see the graphite colored body color.

I WAS SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS CAR, UNTIL I GOT THIS CAR. WE HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE SIGNING OUT CONTRACT. THE UNDER SHIELD OF THE CAR IS FALLING/DROPPING WHICH IS CONSTANTLY BREAKING OFF AND FALLING OUT BEHIND US WHICH IS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS TO OTHERS AS WELL. MAKES THE WHOLE CAR SHAKE LIKE CRAZY WHEN DRIVING HIGHER SPEEDS. I AM CONSTANTLY HAVING TO GET DOWN ON THE GROUND IN MID WINTER AND TRY TO DIG THE SNOW, SLUSH AND ICE OUT FROM INBETWEEN THE SHIELD AND THE CAR ITSELF. I CANT USE TOOLS OR SHARP OBJECTS BECAUSE I DONT KNOW IF THERE IS BREAKABLE STUFF SO I JUST USE BARE HANDS AND HOPE FOR THE BEST. RIDICULOUS WHEN I HAVE SERVE CARPEL TUNNEL AND ITS IN NEGATIVE WITH WINDCHILL AND I RUN INSIDE UGLY CRYING BECAUSE MY HANDS HURTING.. THE CLIPS THAT WHOLE THE CAR TOGETHER IN GENERAL KEEP COMING UNDONE. I CAN ONLY CLIP A FEW BACK TOGETHER AS I DON'T HAVE THE STRENGTH FOR THE REST. SCARED THE BUMPER MIGHT FALL OFF AT A HIGHER SPEED WITH 2 MINOR CHILDREN IN THE CAR. THEN THE FELT ON THE INSIDE AROUND THE TIRES LIKES TO PEEL AWAY AND WHEN THE CLIP IS ALSO UNDONE IT BENDS AND MENDS THE UNDERBODY OUTSIDE TRIM AND THEN WHILE DRIVING IT CATCHES ON MY BACK TIRE. NOT ONLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS BUT ALL THE TIME.

IN AUGUST 2918, THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED FROM MCGEORGE TOYOTA OF RICHMOND, VIRGINIA. IN FEBRUARY 2019,THE AC WAS NOT COOLING. IT WAS FOUND THAT THERE WERE SEVERAL HIGH PRESSURE LEAKS. THE CONDENSER WAS REPLACED IN THE CAR AND HAS ATTEMPTED TO BE REPAIRED THREE OTHER TIMES, AS TWO OTHER TIMES THE FREON WAS FOUND TO BE LOW, AND LEAKS FROM HIGH PRESSURE LINES. AFTER THE SECOND REPAIR IN MARCH 2019, THE WIRING WAS FOUND TO BE FAULTY, WHICH IN TURN HEATED THE VENTS UP SO HOT, IT PRODUCED A MILD BURN ON MY FINGERS. WHILE DRIVING, THE TEMPERATURE OF THE AIR COMING OUT OF THE VENTS WAS EXTREMELY HOT, SO I TURNED THE BLOWER DOWN AND ATTEMPTED TO MOVE THE VENTS IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. FURTHERMORE, THE MIRROR WAS FOUND TO BE DEFECTIVE AND A PIECE FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN JANUARY OF 2019. TODAY, ON 10/24/19, THE CAR MALFUNCTIONED WHILE IN MOTION AND IN A STATIONARY POSITION. WHEN THIS EVENT OCCURRED, IT EFFECTED POWER, STEERING, BRAKES, AIR BAGS AND SEVERAL OTHER MAJOR FUNCTIONS. I LEFT FOR WORK AND NOTICED MY CAR JUST SEEMED TO BE DRIVING ODDLY. I PULLED OFF TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON AND GET COFFEE. I TURNED THE CAR OFF, WENT INTO THE STORE. WHEN I CAME TO THE VEHICLE AND STARTED IT, I PUT IT IN REVERSE AND COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL. NEARLY ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. WHEN I TURNED THE VEHICLE BACK ON, ALL OF THE LIGHTS WERE OFF AND THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO MOVE AND DRIVE NORMALLY. OVERALL, THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD SEVERAL MAJOR ISSUES WITH WIRING, ELECTRICAL, BODY AND HAS POSED A SERIOUS THREAT TO MY SAFETY. I HAVE CONTRACTED THE MANUFACTURER SEVERAL TIME AND SEVERAL ATTEMPTS HAVE BEEN MADE TO REPAIR IT; HOWEVER THE PROBLEMS ARE CONSISTENT. THE MANUFACTURER DEMONSTRATES A LACK OF ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THESE DEFECTS AND HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THESE SAFETY CONCERNS.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT ERRATICALLY, WHEN CRUISING AT A CONSTANT SPEED THE TRANSMISSION JERKS. IT FEELS LIKE IT DOWN SHIFT THEN UP SHIFTED, THIS HAPPENS A FEW OF TIMES A WEEK TOYOTA SAYS THIS IS NORMAL IN 4 CYLINDER, BUT THIS IS NOT NORMAL BEHAVIOR I HAVE 2013 CAMRY WITH NO SUCH ISSUE. THE MOST ANNOYING, BOTH THE DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS SOUND HOLLOW AND MAKE A LOUD BANGING SOUND WHEN SHUTTING THE DOORS. THEY SOUND LIKE METAL BANGING OR HOLLOW TIN CANS. WHEN I SEARCHED ONLINE I FOUND THAT THE ADHESIVE ON THE DOOR SKIN COULD BE BAD CAUSING THE METAL THUMPING SOUND. I CAN MAKE A VIDEO AND SEND IT TO YOU GUYS IF NEEDED. THANK YOU.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2018 TOYOTA CAMRY, A DEER RAN IN FRONT OF THE CAR CAUSING A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. TWO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I SAW A FIRE FLASH FROM THE STEERING WHEEL AIRBAG AND RECEIVED A SERIOUS BURN ON MY ARM. MY JACKET SLEEVE MELTED AS WELL. IT'S BEEN OVER A WEEK, AND THE BURN HAS STILL NOT HEALED. SO THANKFUL MY EYES WERE NOT BURNED!
