DURING THE FIRST HALF OF 2015 MY DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD NOT STAY ALL THE WAY AND WAS ABOUT 15% OF THE WAY DOWN. WHILE THIS WAS IN MY LINE-OF-SIGHT IT REALLY DID NOT IMPEDE MY VISION OR ABILITY TO DRIVE. MID-2015 THE VISOR NO LONGER WAS ABLE TO HOLD ITSELF UP AND WAS FULLY DOWN AT ALL TIMES COMPLETELY IMPEDED MY ABILITY TO SEE THE ROAD AS I AM A TALLER DRIVER. I HAD TO REMOVE IT COMPLETELY IN ORDER TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THERE IS AN EXISTING WARRANTY BUT DOES NOT APPLY TO MY PARTICULAR VIN. IN FACT THERE ARE ONLY TWO 2011 CAMRYS THAT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WMI CODE 4T4. I KNOW I PURCHASED ONE OF THE FIRST 2011 CAMRYS AS I PURCHASED IN MAY OF 2010 (WELL AHEAD OF THE NORMAL RELEASE CYCLE) WHEN TOYOTA WENT THROUGH THEIR BIG (BRAKE PEDAL / FLOOR MAT) RECALL. I ONLY FOUND OUT RECENTLY THAT THERE WAS A WARRANTY AVAILABLE FOR AT LEAST A CERTAIN POPULATION OF 2011 CAMRYS. I HAVE ALSO FOUND OUT THAT IT IS VERY COMMON FOR THE 2011 CAMRY TO HAVE ISSUE AS MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED VIA DIFFERENT FORUMS AND HAVE ALSO CONFIRMED THAT THEIR PARTICULAR VIN IS NOT COVERED.

SUN VISOR UNEXPECTEDLY SAGGED DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, AND NOW PERMANENTLY IN THE DROPPED DOWN POSITION. QUITE A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE WHEN 1/2 OF YOUR VISIBILITY SUDDENLY GETS BLOCKED, AND THIS ISSUE SEEMS QUITE COMMONLY REPORTED IN ONLINE FORUM COMPLAINTS.

ONLY REMEDY IS TO EXTEND THE VISOR TOTALLY OPEN TOWARD THE WINDSHIELD, HOWEVER, THIS IS STILL A NUISANCE. THE VISOR CANNOT BE COMPLETELY REMOVED OR POSITIONED IN MANNER THAT IS NOT OBSTRUCTING VIEW. OTHER VEHICLES ARE INCLUDED IN A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM; HOWEVER, NOT THE VIN FOR THIS 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THIS VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

MY DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR SUDDENLY BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. IT BECAME FLOPPY AND DROPPED DOWN INTO MY DIRECT LINE OF SITE AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON OTHER 2011 CAMRY'S EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT MY SPECIFIC VIN/VEHICLE DOES NOT QUALIFY FOR REPAIR. THIS IS A HUGE LIABILITY FOR TOYOTA AND EXTREMELY SCARY FOR MY SON AND MY SAFETY. I HAVE OWNED THREE CAMRY'S AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. I JUST WANT MY VISOR FIXED! I HAVE HEARD MANY OTHERS SAY THE SAME THING. I FEEL THEY SHOULD EXPAND THE WARRANTY POLICY TO APPLY TO ALL 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY'S.

TONIGHT, IT WOULD NOT STAY UP AND WAS BLOCKING MY VIEW. I COULD NOT MOVE IT TO THE SIDE TO GET IT OUT MY LINE OF SIGHT. I HAD TO HOLD IT UP THE REST OF THE WAY HOME IN ORDER TO SEE THE ROAD SAFELY. I ENDED UP REMOVING IT COMPLETELY WHEN I GOT HOME IN ORDER TO DRIVE WITHOUT IT BLOCKING MY VIEW OF THE ROAD, WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. NOW I HAVE NO SUN VISOR. I LIVE IN SOUTHERN CA, DRIVE EAST IN MORNING & WEST IN THE EVENING. I HAVE TO REPLACE/REPAIR THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: Damage to the seat heater wiring could cause the wires to short, increasing the risk of the seat burning and causing personal injury to the occupant.
Remedy: SET will notify owners, and dealers will disconnect the heaters with copper strand heating elements and refund the purchase price of the seat heater accessory, free of charge. The recall is expected to began in January 2015. Owners may contact SET customer service at 1-866-405-4226.

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A loosened ball joint may separate from the knuckle and could cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and replace the ball joint, free of charge. The recall began on December 16, 2014. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331.

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: An inaccurate label could lead to owners overloading their vehicles and tires. An overloaded vehicle can result in a tire failure which may result in a vehicle crash, personal injury, or property damage.
Remedy: Southeast Toyota will notify owners and provide a corrected label with instructions concerning its installation.

Southeast Toyota Distributors, LLC (SET) is recalling certain models interspersed through model years 2009 through 2013 as follows: model year 2009-2012 Tacoma, 4Runner, Camry, Camry Hybrid, Prius, and RAV4; model year 2009-2010 Avalon, FJ Cruiser, and Highlander Hybrid; model year 2010-2013 model year Corolla, Sienna and Tundra; model year 2009-2013 Highlander and Venza; model year 2012 Prius V; and model year 2010-2012 Sequoia. During modification by SET to include accessories such as leather seat covers, seat heaters or headrest DVD systems, these vehicles may not have had the passenger seat occupant sensing system calibration tested. Without passing the calibration test, the occupant sensing system may not operate as designed.
Consequence & remedy
