2018 Toyota Camry

I WAS FOLLOWING THE CAR'S BUILT-IN NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND AS I GOT WITHIN ABOUT A MILE OF THE DESTINATION ADDRESS, IT ABRUPTLY STOPPED WORKING. THE DISPLAY DISAPPEARED. I USED MY SMART PHONE MAP TO GET TO MY DESTINATION. ALTHOUGH I WAS NOT DISTRACTED, I BELIEVE THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A HAZARD IF I HAD BEEN IN AN UNFAMILIAR AREA HAVING MY NAVIGATION INSTRUCTIONS AND MAP SUDDENLY DISAPPEAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2018 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SEAT BELTS FAILED TO RETRACT AND THE PRE-COLLISION DETECTION SYSTEM FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED AND TOWED TO AN IMPOUND LOT. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: AU0000000358273. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,600.

I PURCHASED BRAND NEW 2018 CAMRY SE NOVEMBER 2017 ABOUT A WEEK AFTER PURCHASE I NOTICED THE CAR SHIFTS INTO GEAR ROUGHLY AND JERKS A LOT WHEN DRIVING SIMILAR TO DRIVING A MANUAL TRANSMISSION CAR SO I ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE SALESMAN WHO SOLD ME THE CAR ONLY TO GET THE RUNAROUND ABOUT WHO TO TALK TO FINALLY WHEN I TOOK MY CAR IN THEY CHECKED ALL 20 SOMETHING COMPUTERS ON THE CAR AND SAID THEY SAW NO ERRORS BEING REPORTED WENT FOR A TEST DRIVE NOTHING SO THEY SENT ME ON MY WAY CAR WAS STILL DOING THE SAME THING SO I TRIED A DIFFERENT TOYOTA DEALER LEFT THE CAR ALL DAY THEY CHECKED SYSTEMS SAID IT WAS UPDATED AND THAT I PROBABLY NEED TO DRIVE THE CAR MORE SO IT CAN GET ACCLIMATED WITH MY DRIVING SO I HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING HESITATION WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS, REVS UP PRETTY HIGH BEFORE SWITCHING GEARS, HARD SHIFTS INTO GEARS, AND JERKING EXCESSIVELY THIS CAR SO FAR HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE IM VERY UNSATISFIED WITH MY NEW CAR PURCHASE

THE CAR HAS ACCELERATION/SPEED PROBLEMS. THE CAR HAS ONLY 200 MILES, TOOK IT IN TE HIGHWAY AND TAKES TOO LONG TO REACH HIGHWAY SPEED. IT RARELY REACHES AND STAYS AT LOWER SPEED. LIKE OTHERS IT SEEMS THIS CAMRY WILL HAVE A LOT REAR-END ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE LACK OF SPEED PERFORMANCE. I FEEL SCARE TO DRIVE THIS CAR, TOO DIFFICULT TO CHANGE LANES, TOO DIFFICULT TO KEEP UP WITH TRAFFIC. IF CARS ARE APPROACHING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND YOU ARE CHANGING LINES YOU MORE THAN LIKELY WILL END UP REAR- END. IT TOOK ME TWO AND A HALF HOURS TO COMPLETE A 1 HOUR TRIP DUE TO LACK OF SPEED, CAR NOT RESPONDING AND FEAR OF GETTING REAR-END BY OTHER CARS WHO WERE HURNING BECAUSE CAR WOULDN'T SPEED UP. CAR IS TOO UNSAFE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TO TOYOTA. WORST CAR EVER.

I'VE HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS NOW. THE FIRST MONTH I NOTICED THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE WAY THIS NEW VEHICLE ACCELERATES. WHEN STOPPED AND STARTING MOVEMENT AGAIN THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY JERKS AND DOES NOT SPEED UP RIGHT AWAY. THE JERKING PART IS MY MAIN SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE PREVIOUSLY OWNED OTHER TOYOTA MODELS AND NO OTHER MODEL HAS DONE THIS. I'M AFRAID SOMEONE WILL REAR END MY DUE TO THE SUDDEN JERKING AND THEN DELAYED RESPONSE OF THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE. IT IS ESPECIALLY DISTRESSING AT INTERSECTION LIGHTS, OFF RAMPS, AND STOP SIGNS. ANYWHERE REQUIRED TO STOP OR SLOW MOVEMENT AND THEN NEED TO ACCELERATE EVEN AT A MODERATE PACE. SOMETHING JUST IS NOT RIGHT.

VEHICLE HAD AN UNINTENTIONAL BRAKING INCIDENT RELATED TO THE FACTORY SAFETY SYSTEMS WHICH CAUSED PROPERTY DAMAGE. OF CONCERN IS THAT ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER WHO READ THE EDR, THERE WAS NO RECORDED EVENT THEREFORE THEY ARE DENYING THAT AN UNINTENTIONAL BRAKING EVENT OCCURRED. I WAS NOT PRESENT AT THE DEALERSHIP WHEN THEY DOWNLOADED THE DATA HOWEVER THEY LEFT A THUMB DRIVE IN THE CAR WHICH ALLEGEDLY CONTAINS THE DATA THEY PULLED FROM THE CAR. WHEN THE EVENT OCCURRED, THE CAR WAS ON THE TRACK OF AN AUTOMATIC CAR WASH BEING PUSHED ALONG BY ROLLERS UNDER THE WHEELS WHILE IN NEUTRAL. THE SPEED WAS LIKELY 2-3 MPH. WHEN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE WENT UNDER A CURTAIN OF SWAYING CLOTH STRIPS, ALARMS WENT OFF IN THE VEHICLE, LARGE ILLUMINATED LETTERS THAT SAID BRAKE APPEARED IN THE INSTRUMENT DISPLAY, IT BRAKED BY ITSELF CAUSING IT TO COME OFF OF THE TRACK ROLLERS AND THE CONVEYER PULLED THE VEHICLE BEHIND INTO THE REAR OF MY VEHICLE CAUSING DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. THE OWNERS MANUAL LISTS AUTOMATIC CAR WASH AS A SITUATION WHEN THE SYSTEM MAY ACTIVATE (ALONG WITH PASSING OTHER VEHICLES, GOING UNDER HIGHWAY SIGNS AND ABOUT 20 OTHER COMMON EVERYDAY SITUATIONS WHERE ONE WOULD BE UNABLE TO DEACTIVATE THE SYSTEMS PRIOR TO THE SITUATION). THE OWNERS MANUAL DOES NOT TELL YOU TO DISABLE THE SYSTEM WHEN IN AN AUTOMATIC CAR WASH. TOYOTA DENIES ANY LIABILITY DUE TO THE EDR NOT RECORDING THE EVENT ALTHOUGH THEY IDENTIFIED THAT IT WOULD AND SHOULD HAVE IF IT OCCURRED. THERE CLEARLY IS A PROBLEM WITH THE EDR RECORDING PROPERLY IF IT IS NOT RECORDING WHAT IT IS SUPPOSED TO. THE DATA ON THE THUMB DRIVE IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. THE DEALER IDENTIFIED WHEN THE CLAIM WAS FILED THAT TOYOTA HAS A UNIT DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY TO UNINTENTIONAL BRAKING, SAME AS THEY DO FOR THE UNINTENTIONAL ACCELERATION PROBLEMS THEIR VEHICLES EXPERIENCED SO CLEARLY THEY ARE AWARE OF POTENTIAL PROBLEMS. *TR

HESITATION/LAGGING ISSUES AT BOTH HIGH AND LOW SPEEDS- HESITATES BOTH WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE TAKING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION - SHIFTS ARE HORRIBLE THE CAR JERKS A LOT- IN CRUISE CONTROL GOING 70-75 MPH JERKS HARD, WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OF IT. ACCELERATION IS HORRIBLE SO MUCH SO, THAT WE ALMOST GET REAR ENDED WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC. THIS STARTED A WEEK AFTER I PURCHASED THIS IN JULY- JAN 13 WE WERE ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT TO CAR NOT ACCELERATING AND JERKING
