May 8 2022 The vehicle was parked when I took it out of park it accelerated even when I repeatedly slammed on the brakes it continued to accelerate. It caused me to hit another vehicle and almost into a house. Airbags didn't deploy either....Prior to the incident a check hybrid system was the only warning i guess the vehicle had given. Which we had a appointment to get checked tomorrow. May 9th 2022.

Back seatbelts will not fasten never have since I bought the car… Right side bumper is missing the screws like the ones that’s on recalls for the Highlander… Almost every Toyota Camry I see has that problem and it will cause a hazard if comes off.

ON DECEMBER 18, 2020 A CRASH INVOLVING A 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY OCCURRED. DURING THE CRASH, THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER DIED AS A RESULT OF HIS INJURIES. DURING A POST-CRASH INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE, MANY HOLES, TEARS, AND BURN-THROUGH HOLES WERE DISCOVERED IN THE DRIVER'S AIRBAG THAT MAY HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY SHRAPNEL.*DT*DT*DT*DT*DT*TR*JB*JB*JB*DT*JB

REAR PASSENGER SEATBELT WILL NOT LATCH. DAUGHTER MOVED TO REAR DRI VER SIDE FOR CRASH PROTECTION. I INSPECTED THE PROBLEM ON NOVEMBER 30, 2019 AND DETERMINED THAT THE RECEIVER LOCK WAS NOT CATCHING/HOLDING ON TO THE SHOULDER STRAP BUCKLE.

I WAS DRIVING DURING NIGHT WITH LIGHTS ON AT HIWAY SPEED AND ALL INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR LIGHTS WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH IN PITCH BLACK! I HAD TO GUESS WHERE I WAS ON CURVED OVERPASS. I TRIED FLICKING THE HI/LOW BEAM SWITCH, BUT THAT DIDN'T HELP. COULDN'T GET LIGHTS TO COME ON UNTIL STOPPED, SHUT OFF CAR AND RESTARTED IT. HAS HAPPENED TWICE SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW. FIRST TIME WAS PRIOR TO ANY BODY DAMAGE, SECOND TIME IT WASN'T COMPLETELY PITCH BLACK SO NOT AS DANGEROUS. ANOTHER TRIP WE WERE ON 4 LANE INTERSTATE DRIVING THROUGH A CITY AND SOMEONE ELSE HAD HIT AN ORANGE CONSTRUCTION BARREL AND IT HAD FLIPPED UP INTO AIR AND WE HIT IT AT HIWAY SPEED ON LEFT FRONT CORNER OF CAR. HAD TO REPLACE BUMPER, HEADLIGHT, WASHER FLUID TANK, REPAIR FENDER. AIR BAGS NEVER WENT OFF. I AM AN EMT AND ANOTHER DAY WAS DRIVING TO A GUNSHOT CALL AT 80 MPH AND REACHED FOR PAGER AS IT WAS FALLING AND FRONT WHEEL DROPPED OFF SHOULDER AND I KNEW NOT TO CORRECT IT, SO JUST KEPT STRAIGHT AND CAME TO STOP IN SNOW FILLED DITCH. AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED OUT, AND THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER INDICATED THAT IT WAS A DIFFICULT DITCH TO GET IT OUT OF. HAD GET GET IT REALIGNED AND REPLACE RIGHT FRONT HEADLIGHT, BUMPER, AND SOME OTHER PLASTIC PIECES. THIRD TIME WE WERE T-BONED AT AN INTERSECTION IN TOWN, WOULD ESTIMATE LESS THAN 30 MPH, AND AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DAMAGE WAS BAD ENOUGH IT WAS NOT DRIVEABLE ANYMORE AND INSURANCE COMPANY TOTALED THE CAR OUT. WE BOUGHT THE CAR BACK TO REPAIR IT TO CONTINUE DRIVING IT, BUT NOW I AM THINKING THAT WAS A POOR DECISION AS I WONDER ABOUT THE SAFETY OF IT. THE LAST ACCIDENT HAS ME VERY SHOOK UP AND I AM WAITING TO HAVE SURGERY ON MY NECK NOW BECAUSE OF IT. I WONDER IF THE SIDE AIR BAGS HAD WORKED, WOULD I NEED TO HAVE MY NECK FUSED.

WHEN IM DOING A LIGHT ACCELERATION FROM 20 TO 50 MPH THERE IS A SHUDDERING VIBRATION FROM THE TRANSMISSION THAT VIBRATES THE CAR. I HAVE TO COME OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND PRESS HARDER JUST TO STOP THE SHUDDER AND VIBRATION. MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND STAYS ON CONSTANTLY. *TR

SIRIUS XM RADIO HAS A RADIO DEVICE FOR CARS THAT DO NOT HAVE A BUILT IN XM RADIO. THE PROBLEM IS THAT IT COMES WITH A 20 FOOT CORD. IT IS MEANT TO BE PLACED ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CORD GOES THROUGH THE CAR AND IS PLACED ON TOP OF THE CAR. MY CORD GOT STUCK IN MY STEERING WHEEL AND SNAPPED THE CLOCK SPRING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM AS ALL MY CAPABILITIES WERE RESTRICTED. MY HORN, AIRBAG AND CONTROLS WERE NOT OPERABLE. THIS WAS BECAUSE THE CLOCK SPRING GOT SEVERED. IT IS A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.

TOUCH SCREEN RADIO BASS CONTROL STOPPED WORKING WURRING NOISE FROM STEERING WHEEL WHILE I TURN WHEEL IN REVERSE BACKING PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT IS ON AND WON'T TURN OFF

MY SEATBELT WILL NOT STAY IN THE SLOT AFTER I BUCKLE IT. IT CLICKS, THE LIGHT GOES OUT AND THEN IT STARTS SLIDING OUT, AND THE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE BEEPING STARTS. I HAVE TO HOOK IT IN THE SLOT FOR THE PASSENGER SEATBELT TO GET IT TO STAY. THIS IS WHILE I AM DRIVING. IT WON'T STAY WHEN NOT DRIVING. I AM HAVING TO PAY $162 TO HAVE WHAT SHOULD BE AN UNBREAKABLE PART REPLACED AND I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS IS HAPPENING A LOT. I OWN TWO OLDER CARS, A 97 LINCOLN AND A 90 MIATA AND THOSE SEATBELTS WORK FINE.

2014 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO DEPLOYMENT OF AIRBAG DEFECT. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CONSUMER'S WIFE WAS INJURED, THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. *JS

TOOK CAR TO DEALER WHEN AIR BAG OFF LIGHT CAME ON AND THEY TOLD ME THE AIR BAG SENSOR HAD FALLEN OFF THE CAR

DRIVER AIRBAG DID NOT WORK IN FRONT END AND DRIVER SIDE COLLISION.

AT 50000 MILES THERE WAS A PLASTIC CRUNCHING SOUND IN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE AIR BAG LIGHT WENT ON. OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS THERE WAS MORE CRUNCHING AND LOST THE CRUISE CONTROL FOLLOWED BY THE HORN AND RADIO CONTROLS. THE PHONE FUNCTION WAS THE LAST TO GO ON THE STEERING WHEEL. IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS THE CLOCK SPRING AND BECAUSE MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL FOR THE EXACT SAME THING AS OTHER TOYOTA VEHICLES I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND MY AIRBAG AND HORN DO NOT WORK DUE TO A FAULTY PART THAT TOYOTA IS WELL AWARE OF. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED.

DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT WILL NOT BUCKLE AND HOLD IN THE RECEIVER ON THE SEAT. THE TECH AT THE DEALER GOT THE BUCKLE TO TOLD BY ENGAGING IT INTO RECEIVER WHILE HOLDING DOWN DISCONNECT BUTTON. WE WERE TOLD NO RECALL AND WE MUST PAY FOR REPAIR.
