2007 Toyota Camry Complaint Log

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR OF CAR IS DEFECTIVE, FOR NO REASON IT BECOMES UNSTUCK AND BEGINS TO DANGLE IN THE DRIVERS VISION CAUSING VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING FOR ALL PEOPLE ON THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED IN MY VEHICLE WITHOUT ME EVEN USING IT, THE SUN VISOR WAS NOT IN USE WHEN IT LOST SUPPORT AND BEGIN TO DANGLE. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. IT FLOPS DOWN INTO THE DRIVERS LINE OF VISION, WHICH LEAVES THE DRIVER FEELING LIKE HE/SHE IS DRIVING A TANK. LAST EVENING I NEARLY HIT A MOTORCYCLIST BECAUSE THE FLOPPING VISOR LIMITED MY VISION. WE HAVE TRIED TO FIX IT, STICK IT UP INTO PLACE, ETC. ALL TO NO AVAIL. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CAMRYS. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY; THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR HAS "POPPED" & BROKEN LOOSE FROM THE MOUNTING BRACKET, IN SUCH A WAY THAT THE VISOR WILL NOT REMAIN IN A STATIONARY POSITION, AND HANGS LOOSELY, IN LINE-OF-SIGHT FOR DRIVING. I HAD TO PHYSICALLY HOLD IT WITH ONE HAND IN ORDER TO SEE CLEARLY WHILE DRIVING IN MID-DAY TRAFFIC. WHEN I REACHED MY DESTINATION I DECIDED TO REMOVE THE VISOR ENTIRELY BECAUSE IT IS A DANGEROUS INTERFERENCE WHILE DRIVING. ON A SEARCH FOR A REPLACEMENT PART I FOUND A TOYOTA INTERNET FORUM, WHERE THIS IS FREQUENT COMPLAINT FOR 2007 AND 2008 CAMRY'S, SO IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW - ONE THAT CAN SERIOUSLY IMPAIR THE DRIVER'S FIELD OF VISION AND CAUSE A COLLISION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WAS FRACTURED AND OBSTRUCTED VISION WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO HAVE THE FAILURE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 27,000.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE AND MY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE. IT HAD BEEN MAKING A CLICKING SOUND WHEN PULLING IT DOWN FOR A FEW WEEKS AND FINALLY IT STARTED TO DROOP AND FALL DOWN WHILE DRIVING. NOW IT WILL NOT STAY UP AT ALL AND SEEMS TO BE CRACKED AT THE CONNECTION TO THE CEILING OF THE CAR. THE COST TO REPAIR IS APPROXIMATELY $180. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THIS CAN IMPEDE VISION WHILE DRIVING. ALSO THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL OF CAR. I BELIEVE TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL DUE TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED BOTH SUN VISORS IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE BROKE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INFORMED HER THAT THE REPAIR COST AT HER EXPENSE WAS $150 EACH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

BOTH SUN VISORS HAVE BROKEN AND WILL NOT LONGER REMAIN UP. DRIVER SIDE WAS HANGING STRAIGHT DOWN AND HAD TO BE REMOVED. PASSENGER SIDE WILL ONLY STAY UP AT ABOUT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE. BOTH FAILED SUDDENLY AND OBSCURE DRIVER'S VISION. UPON REMOVING THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR IT COULD BE SEEN THAT THE SEAM IN THE PLASTIC WAS BROKEN AND THE INTERNAL METAL CLIP THROUGH WHICH THE VISOR SHAFT PASSES SLIPS INSTEAD OF HOLDING FAST. NUMEROUS SMALL PIECES OF BROKEN PLASTIC FROM THE INSIDE WERE PROTRUDING OUT OF THE SEAM. *TR

DASHBOARD IS VERY SOFT AND SCRATCHES EASILY. CONDITION OF DASHBOARD IS GETTING WORSE AS TIME GOES BY DASHBOARD IS NOW STARTING TO CRACK EVEN THOUGH CAR IS PROPERLY MANTAINED AND INTERIOR IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT REMAIN UPRIGHT AND WAS KEEPING THE CONTACT FROM HAVING A CLEAR VIEW OF THE ROADWAY. THE DEALER ACKNOWLEDGED THE FAILURE BUT ADVISED THAT THE VISOR WAS NOT COVERED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR BEGAN TO DROOP AND WOULD NOT STAY IN UPWARD OR DOWNWARD POSITION. FINALLY HAD TO REMOVE VISOR IN ORDER TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. NOW HAVE NO VISOR, AND SUN GLASSES DO NOT ALWAYS PROVIDE ENOUGH PROTECTION FROM THE SUN TO SEE WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A MAJOR DRIVING HAZARD....ESPECIALLY FOR SOMEONE WITH LIGHT-SENSITIVE EYES. THE VISOR IS TOO COSTLY TO REPLACE EASILY FOR SOME PEOPLE. *TR

THE SUN VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE WILL NO LONGER RETRACT TO ITS NORMAL POSITION AND NOW HANGS AT AN AWKWARD ANGLE COMPROMISING MY FIELD OF VISION. AS THE SUN VISOR HAS RARELY BEEN USED OR EVEN TOUCHED, I BELIEVE TOYOTA IS AT FAULT AND SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR CORRECTING THIS INCONVENIENT AND HAZARDOUS DEFECT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

SUN VISOR ON DRIVER'S SIDE STOPPED WORKING. FOR ABOUT A YEAR BEFORE IT STOPPED, IT WOULD MAKE A LOUD CRACKING SOUND ANYTIME I ADJUSTED IT. NOW IT IS HANGING STRAIGHT DOWN AND IMPAIRING MY VISION. I TIED IT TO THE GRAB BAR ABOVE MY DOOR WITH CABLE TIES (VERY ATTRACTIVE!), AND IT IS TOTALLY UNUSABLE. DRIVING WITH THE SUN IN MY EYES IS NOT SAFE AND I HAVE GOOD QUALITY SUNGLASSES. I DRIVE EAST IN THE AM TO WORK AND WEST IN THE PM HOME. I CAN'T AVOID THE SUN. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT I PURCHASED USED IN 2008. FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF MONTHS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP CAUSING IT TO FALL AND DANGLE IN THE DRIVER'S LINE OF SIGHT. THIS IS ALSO DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT, I'M HAVING TO LEAN OVER OR BEND DOWN TO SEE AROUND THE UNUSABLE VISOR. I CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE IF IT WAS COVERED IN MY WARRANTY AND WAS TOLD "NO" BECASUE A SUN VISOR IS CONSIDERED A TRIM. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE SUN VISORS BEFORE A PERSON HAS AN ACCIDENT AND HURTS THEMSELF OR OTHERS DUE TO THE VISOR CAUSING VISIBLITY PROBLEMS. I WILL NOT BE BUYING ANOTHER TOYOTA VEHICLE!!! *TT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUN-VISORS FAILED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. VISOR SUDDENLY FELL DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING OBSCURING MY VIEW. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY HAZARD AND I AM SURPRISED A RECALL HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 4 YEARS AND APPROXIMATELY 96,00 MILES. *KB

DRIVER SIDE VISOR HAS FAILED. AT FIRST IT WAS JUST A BIT LOOSE SO I DIDN'T REALLY MIND. NOW IT HAS FALLEN ALMOST COMPLETELY DOWN AND WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP POSITION. NORMAL WEAR MIGHT HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED EXCEPT MY CAR IS ONLY 4 YRS OLD AND I RARELY USE THE VISOR. AFTER SOME SEARCHING I HAVE FOUND THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. MY VISOR BLOCKS MY VIEW OF THE FRONT ROAD AND ALSO PART OF MY REARVIEW MIRROR. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND WAS QUOTED $134 PARTS NOT INCLUDING LABOR. I AM NOT ABLE TO AFFORD THIS EXPENSE AT THE MOMENT SO I AM GOING TO HAVE TO REMOVE THE VISOR. FROM ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE FOUND IT SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR BEING A SAFETY HAZARD AND MALFUNCTION OF EQUIPMENT. *TR

THE SUN VISOR STARTED FLOPPING DOWN WHEN I WAS DRIVING. IT WOULD NOT STAY UP. I USED A STRAIGHT PIN TO HELP HOLD IT UP OUT OF WAY SO THAT I COULD DRIVE, BUT NEEDED IT WHEN FACING THE SUN TO BLOCK OUT THE SUN'S RAYS. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. DEFECTIVE PART. I USED TO OWN A 1997 TOYOTA CAMRY AND DROVE OVER 200,000 MILES AND THE SUN VISOR WAS FINE. I WAS SEARCHING ON THE WEB TO FIND A REPLACEMENT PART BUT INSTEAD FOUND A WEBSITE THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE POSTED HAVING SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS DEFECTIVE PART. HTTP://WWW.TOYOTANATION.COM/FORUM/104-5TH-6TH-GENERATION-2002-2006-2007-2011/343284-2007-CAMRY-SUN-VISOR-PROBLEM-2.HTML ADDITIONALLY, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TOYOTA REGARDING A RECALL ABOUT THE ACCELERATOR PROBLEM AND TRIED TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT THROUGH AN EMAIL WITH COURTESY TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER AND THEY DID NOT RESPOND TO MY INQUIRY NOR WILLING TO SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO CURE THE RECALL ISSUE. COURTESY TOYOTA 9210 ADAMO DRIVE TAMPA, FL 33619 *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE VISOR ON OUR 2007 CAMRY XLE WILL NOT STAY IN THE UP POSITION. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS ISSUE! WHY IS THERE NO RECALL??? THIS IS AN EXTREME HAZARD SINCE THE VISOR FALLS DOWN AT ANY TIME OBSTRUCTING THE VIEW AND/OR HITTING YOU IN THE HEAD! WE NEED A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE NOW! *TR

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AUTHORIZED DEALER IN 2011, HAD 24000 MILES AT THE TIME. WITHIN ONE WEEK RETURNED TO DEALER BECAUSE CAR WAS MAKING NOISES AS TURNING AND AT WHEN BRAKING STEERING COLUMN WOULD SHAKE. DEALER CHANGED A TIRE AND ROTATED AND BALANCED ALL AND SENT ME HOME. AFTER ABOUT 6 MONTHS, STEERING COLUMN IS NOW CONTINUOUSLY SHAKING AS BRAKES ARE APPLIED. WENT BACK TO DEALER AT 55,000 MILES AND DEALER SAID THIS WAS UNRELATED TO THE ORIGINAL SHAKING PROBLEM AND DIAGNOSED IT AS THE STEERING COLUMN ISSUE. I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY SO I WILL HAVE TO PAY THE $100 DOLLAR DEDUCTIBLE. NEXT, MY SUN VISOR JUST BROKE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, IT JUST FELL DOWN AND WOULD NOT GO BACK UP AS I WAS DRIVING. IT WAS OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW SO I PLAYED WITH IT AND THE THING RIPPED THE CLOTH AND THEN CAME RIGHT OFF. DEALER WILL NOT COVER COSTS AND SAYS IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. OBVIOUSLY A KNOWN ISSUE. *TR

THE VISOR MIRROR DROPPED DOWN AND WILL NOT STAY UP. THIS BLOCKS MY VISIBILITY BY 80% AND IT WILL NOT PASS INSPECTION. THIS IS A DANGER BECAUSE I CANNOT SEE AT MY FULL POTENTIAL. *TR

THE DASHBOARD HAS BEEN MELTING, NOW IT IS VERY SHINY AND STICKY. WHEN IT IS SUNNY OUTSIDE THERE IS A GLARE ON THE WINDSHEILD THAT MAKES IT HARD TO SEE. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY BREAKS AND HANGS DOWN BLOCKING THE VIEW OF THE ROAD. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME IT HAS BROKEN AND IS A REOCCURRING PROBLEM. IT OCCURS DURING NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO BE REPAIRED THREE TIMES NOW AT MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. EACH TIME I HAVE HAD TO PAY THE $50 DEDUCTIBLE FOR MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. EACH TIME TOYOTA HAS HAD TO ORDER THE VISOR LEAVING ME HAVING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH THE VISOR BLOCKING MY VIEW OF THE ROAD. THIS SAM PROBLEM KEEPS HAPPENING AND IS AN EXTREMELY UNSAFE CONDITION. *TT

TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 DASHBOARD HAS BECOME STICKY AND SHINY AND APPEARS TO BE MELTING. THIS CAUSES AN EXTREME GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD FROM THE REFLECTION THAT IMPAIRS THE DRIVERS ENTIRE VISION OF THE ROAD. *TR

THE DRIVER SIDE POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH STARTED TO SMOKE, AFTER STARTING MY VEHICLE AND PRESSING THE SWITCH TO ROLL DOWN MY WINDOWS. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND MY CAR FILLED WITH SMOKE. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. ONCE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED MY CAR WAS NO LONGER SMOKING. THE FIREFIGHTERS COULD NOT TELL ME WHAT CAUSED THE SMOKE BUT STATED IT WAS NOT SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THEY RECOMMENDED I HAVE MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF MELTED ELECTRICAL WIRES. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED MY MASTER SWITCH WAS SHORTING OUT AND IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY BECAUSE MY MILEAGE WAS PAST 35,000 FOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. THE SUN VISOR BROKE AND IS HANGING DOWN DIRECTLY IN MY DRIVING VISION. I PUT IT TO THE SIDE BUT IT DOESN'T STAY. I DRIVE INTO THE SUN. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND I CAN SEE ON LINE IT'S NOT UNCOMMON. I HAVE DUCT TAPED IT TO THE CEILING FOR NOW. TOYOTA WANTS OVER $200 TO FIX. THIS SHOULD NEVER BREAK, AND IT BREAK SEEMS LIKE IT'S INSIDE THE VISOR ITSELF. *KB

THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR JUST HANGS DOWN, WILL NOT STAY UP OR IN ANY POSITION. *TT

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FALL DOWN ON 8/1/2011. IT WILL NOT STAY HOLD UP WHICH WILL BLOCK DRIVER'S SIGHT WHILE DRIVING. THERE IS POTENTIAL AND SERIOUS POSSIBILITY THAT THIS FALL DOWN SUN VISOR MAY CAUSE A CAR ACCIDENT. EVER SINCE LAST YEAR, NUMEROUS OF PEOPLE HAVE REPORTED TO TOYOTA THAT 2007 TO 2011 CAMRY HAS THIS PROBLEM. AS OF TODAY, 8/8/2011, TOYOTA HAS YET TO REPLY TO THIS PROBLEM OR MAKE ANY RECALL TO THE PROBLEMATIC MODEL. IN FACT, TOYOTA ASKS THEIR CUSTOMERS WHO EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM TO PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT SUN VISOR WHICH MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM IN THE FUTURE. THIS PROBLEM WAS CREATED BY EITHER DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE. NOT BY FAILURE OF USAGE.

VISIBILITY SAFETY WITH BROKEN SUN VISOR /DRIVER'S SIDE TORQUE PIN WILL NOT STAY UP AND FLOPS DOWN. NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS PARTICULAR MAKE/MODEL/YEAR ARE NOTED ON SEVERAL WEB SITES. SUCH AS TOYOTANATION.COM. PLEASE REVIEW THIS FOR A RECALL AS DEALER COSTS ARE VERY HIGH FOR A SAFETY ISSUE ON A 4-5 YEAR OLD CAR.

I DRIVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE. IT HAS APPROX. 37,000 MILES. MY DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT STAY UP OR IN POSITION AND THEN ENDED UP FALLING OFF COMPLETELY SEVERAL DAYS LATER. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TODAY AND THEY ARE ORDERING A NEW VISOR. THIS IS GOING TO COST APPROX. $130.00 OUT OF POCKET, BUT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE FIXED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FRACTURED AND HE WAS UNABLE TO SECURE IT IN PLACE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 25 MPH WHEN THE SUN VISOR DROPPED, IMPAIRING THE CONTACT'S VISION. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE PLASTIC BRACKET INSIDE THE VISOR CAUSED IT TO FAIL. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE SUN VISOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT DID NOT REPLACE THE SUN VISOR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE DRIVER SIDE VISOR JUST HANGS AND OBSTRUCTS THE VIEW. THE INTERNAL BRACKET THAT HOLDS IT UP GAVE OUT. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MY MECHANIC THAT IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. TOYOTA REFUSES TO REPLACE THE VISOR BECAUSE I AM TOLD THIS THINGS WEAR OUT. I TEND TO BELIEVE IT WAS ENGINEERED THIS WAY ON PURPOSE TO MAKE THE CUSTOMER BUY REPLACEMENT PARTS. CAN YOU LOOK INTO IT. HUNDREDS OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY IN POSITION. THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR IS ALSO QUICKLY LOOSENING TO THE POINT WHERE IT WILL BE A DISTRACTION OR FALL ON THE DRIVER WHILE IN OPERATION OF VEHICLE. THIS PART ON THE VEHICLE HAS HAD LIGHT USE AND MAINLY FOR SHEILDING GLARING SUN WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION. WITHOUT THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE SUN VISOR, IT WILL PUT THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING! I CANNOT TOUCH IT WITHOUT STICKY GOO COMING OFF OF IT. I CREATES A TERRIBLE GLARE AND IS HARD TO SEE OUT OF WINDSHIELD. *TR

MELTING, STICKY DASH WHICH CAUSES A GLARE DURING DAYLIGHT DRIVING. *TR

IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AT FIRST (APPROX. 2011) THE DASHBOARD WOULD FEEL STICKY, AS IF SOMETHING HAD SPILLED ON IT. HOWEVER THE STICKINESS COULD NOT BE CLEANED UP. IT WAS IN FACT THE MATERIAL OF THE DASHBOARD MELTING. IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND SPREADS ACROSS A LARGER AREA, TO THE POINT THAT NOW (2014) THE DASH CANNOT BE TOUCHED WITHOUT A MARK BEING LEFT IN THE MELTED MATERIAL. IT LOOKS WET AND IS SO GLOSSY THAT THE GLARE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD, NOT JUST WITH THE BLINDING GLARE WHICH IMPAIRS VISION, BUT BECAUSE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS CONTAINED INSIDE OF THE DASHBOARD AND THE DASHBOARD BEING MELTED MAY AFFECT ITS DEPLOYMENT. *TR

MY SISTER WHOLE FAMILY WAS INVOLVED IN MAJOR ACCIDENT WAS HIT BY 16 WHEELER TRUCK, LAST JULY 30,2011, DRIVING 2008 CAMRY SE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. CAR WAS FIRST HIT BETWEEN DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE, WITH SPEED AROUND 65 MPH THEN DRUG BY THE TRUCK FOR FEW SECONDS, THE CAR FLIP ONE SIDE DID NOT ROLL OVER BECAUSE THANKS GOD IT SOMETHING TO PREVENT FROM ROLLING OVER. AND THANKS GOD NOTHING HAPPEN TO THE WHOLE FAMILY (4). IT HAPPENED AROUND 11 PM AND GOOD THING THEY ARE ALL AWAKE WHEN IT HAPPENED. MY NEPHEW EVEN SAW THE TRUCK WHEN IT IS ABOUT TO HIT THEM.. TO MUCH LIGHT AND REALLY CLOSE... THEN IT HITS THEM. BUT THE BIG QUESTION SEEING THE CONDITION OF THE CAR NONE OF THE AIRBAG DEPLOY. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED SOME OF THERE BRUISES. *TR
