2011 Toyota Camry

I BELIEVE MY CAR IS ONE OF THE CARS THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN LISTED IN TOYOTA RECALL I'D: 227548. I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH MY CAR, THAT'S LISTED IN THIS RECALL. BUT MY VIN ISN'T LISTED. WHEN I TURN MY WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TIGHTLY I HERE A GRINDING SOUND, I TOOK MY CAR TO BE SUSPECTED AND WAS GIVE THE DIAGNOSIS OF MY SUSPENSION AND SOMETHING ABOUT THE BALL JOINT

CAR SHUDDERS AT 35 TO 40 MPH. IF I SPEED UP NO PROBLEM. I HEARD IT COULD BE TORQUE CONVERTER. I AM NOT A MECHANIC BUT I TOLD DEALER AND THEY NEVER DID ANYTHING. I ALSO TURN ON AC AN ENGINE NOISE. THEY TOLD ME IS WEAR AN TEAR. CAR IS IN GOOD CONDITION JUST THOSE ISSUES. I AM ORIGINAL OWNER MY CAR WAS ALSO IN ACCIDENT BUT DEALER FIXED IT AND NEVER TOLD ME ABOUT THE ISSUE. DORSCHEL GROUP ROCHESTER NY. IS VERY UPSETTING THAT A CAR I PAID OVER 25000$ IS DOING THIS AND NO RECALLS

I CONTACTED TOYOTA REGARDING A PREVIOUS NHTSA CASE INVOLVING THE VEHICLE LINE JUST PRIOR TO MINE (2010). FOR THAT LINE, TOYOTA ISSUED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY TO REPAIR THE VEHICLES. HOWEVER, THEY ARE REFUSING TO COVER MY VEHICLE FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. I AM ATTACHING MY LETTER TO TOYOTA. MY INQUIRY TO THEM IS [XXX] AND CASE# [XXX] (WITH HQ). THE ATTACHED LETTER DOCUMENTS MY CASE. I THOUGHT THE DEALER'S BRAKE WORK HAD CAUSED THE PROBLEM, BUT IT SEEMS THAT IT'S JUST A FAULTY MODULE IN THE VEHICLE. NOW, IT IS DISABLED, RENDERING MY VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS. THE COST AMOUNTS TO ALMOST THE VALUE OF MY VEHICLE. SINCE MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN DEALER-MAINTAINED, IT'S IMMACULATE AND I HAD NOT INTENDED TO TRADE IT IN. I HAD ACTUALLY CONSIDERED PURCHASING A NEW CAMRY UNTIL THIS SITUATION CAME UP. I HAVE LOST ALL FAITH IN TOYOTA FOR THEIR REFUSAL TO ASSIST. I HOPE THAT BY NOTIFYING NHTSA AND MAKING OTHERS AWARE, THIS WILL BE BROUGHT TO LIGHT AND ADDRESSED. SINCE IT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT YOU WOULD KNOW ABOUT UNTIL YOU ENCOUNTER THE PROBLEM, THERE ARE NO TELLING HOW MANY OTHERS ARE DRIVING VEHICLES THAT ARE AFFECTED, INCLUDING MY 25-YEAR OLD SON WHO DRIVES A 2011 LE MODEL (VIN [XXX]). I DO PRAY THAT OUR MODEL YEAR CAN BE ADDED TO THE INCIDENT FOR EXTENDED WARRANTY AND REPAIR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE.

AIRBAG SYMBOL WAS LIT SHOWING ON MY DASH. I CALLED TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT, AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING MY CAR IN. AFTER INSPECTION, THEY TOLD THAT A SPRING HAD BROKEN, AND THAT MY AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPOY IN AN ACCIDENT. COST TO REPLACE SPRING WAS OVER $500.00. I CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE IF I COULD GET SOME HELP WITH PROBLEM. WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. MY WIFE AND I ARE LIVING ON A FIX-INCOME, AND 500.00 IS OUT OF THE QUESTION. I JUST SAW A RECALL ON A TOYOTA LAND CRUISER, WITH WHAT I THINK IS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG. WE DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR WITH FAULTY AIRBAG. PART NEEDED IS A SPRIAL 84306-06150 CLOCK SPRING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE UNCONTROLLABLY VIBRATED. ALSO, WHILE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, IT FELT AS IF IT WOULD DETACH FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRONT LOWER BALL JOINTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.
