2013 Toyota Camry

I attempted to open my car door and the door handle simply snapped off in my hand. This is the second time this has occurred. The first time, my driver's door handle snapped off when a technician at my Goodyear repair shop tried to open it. Now, the exact same thing happened to my passenger driver's side door when I went to open it. Upon closer inspection, it seems that the manufacturing is defective, as the handle seems to have been simply glued on in spots rather than more securely attached. Bear in mind that this car is barely driven more than twice a week; it barely has any wear and tear and is under 80,000 miles despite 12 years of use.

I had this car for 5 months, the dealer lied to me about the engine being repaired, the coverage he has on the vehicle. The electronic doesn't work front driver/ passenger doors, we have to unlock the back doors to get into the car and hop over to the front. The hood doesn't have a holder to keep the hood up on its own, the electrical sound blows out and I had to buy more wires and sound system to equip. The day it started tripping, first was when the car didn't start, it made an awful clicking noise. I got a jump it started. I decided to buy new battery; however, the check engine light is on, and check service soon light on. I checked to see if there was any oil, there's no oil. I called the dealership advise him of the problem and he blows me off as if it's not his concern. I'm extremely upset because I trusted that his word to sell me a good and no bad conditions car. I have me and my friends with me along driving, my friend said, "C car is smoking", I looked in the mirror, oh my God I see white thick smoke from the back. I immediately pull over to look at the problem. I can't drive. I called my insurance to get the car tolled to my home. I called the dealers, I had no good help from him at all. I'm out of a car what to do? My wife called Toyota company to tell them what going on and to get the Maintenace history (tune up, spark plugs and oil change). The dealer & the lender didn't want nothing to do with this car, I'm so hurt because I've been deceived for my money. He did the contract the way he wanted, and lenders company to continue to report a fraud contract on my credit report. I have less than time to turn the car back or continue to pay for a broken car. My wife side the car its safe anymore to continue to drive or put any more money into a car you didn't damage. Who is responsible, the manufacturers said they can't help me it's passed the mile; I have to pay out of pocket. This contract is all a lie the amount value and work. I need help with to🕳

1. The seatbelts in the back seat doesnt not work. It is not strapping and clicking. I am unable to properly strap in my nephew's carseat properly. This not a dealership issue this a manfacturer issue and it needs to be recalled. God forbidden that I get into an accident with my nephew in the car. 2. Recently the car handles on the driver's side both of broken off from the car. I am unable to open my car properly. I dont understand why it broke off I didnt pull on it hard one day it just came 3. The child lock option doesnt work one day I was driving on the high way and my nephew was open to open the back door with the child lock button on. These are major issues that need to be investigated and recalled. 4. The door on the passenger side in the back does not open from the inside. Again dangerous because what if there is a fire and my passengers can't get out.

I LIKE TOYOTAS AND HAVE TWO CAMRYS. I PREVIOUSLY HAD 3 TOYOTAS. USUALLY THEY ARE VERY GOOD, BUILT WELL, UPKEEP GOOD, LAST LONG AND TOYOTA STANDS BEHIND THEM, USUALLY. A LITTLE OVER A YEAR OF HAVING THE LAST TOYOTA CAMRY SE, I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE BUMPER POPPED OUT. ONE GOOD HIT TO THE CORRECT SPOT AND IT FELL IN PLACE, FOR A WHILE, THEN IT WOULD CONSISTENTLY POP OUT MORE FREQUENTLY. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A WHILE, THEN ONE DAY I WAS AT TOYOTA FOR A RECALL OF SOMETHING ELSE AND I ASKED IF I COULD BUY A CLIP TO CORRECT THE BUMPER FROM POPPING OUT. THEY SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THEM AND PROBABLY THE WHOLE BUMPER, WHICH WAS GOOD OTHERWISE, WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. THEY HAD ME TALK TO THEIR BODY SHOP SALESMAN AND HE CONFIRMED WHAT THEY HAD SAID. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A WHILE MORE, UNTIL THE SAME THING HAPPENED ON THE OTHER SIDE. KNOWING WHAT I HAD FOUND OUT, THERE WAS NO REASON TO GO TO THE DEALER AGAIN, SO I WROTE A LETTER TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE. I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AND MY VIEW THAT BECAUSE IT IS SUCH A LOW FRONT END PROFILE CAR, THE WAY IT WAS DESIGNED MADE IT INEVITABLE THAT THIS OCCURRENCE WOULD HAPPEN AND I ASKED WHAT COULD THEY DO FOR THIS OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW. THEY RECOMMENDED THAT I GO BACK TO THE DEALER. I HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING AS OF YET, BUT I SEE ONLINE THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND TO THE NHTSA. THEY MUST FIND A WAY TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, BECAUSE IT CAN WORSEN AS THE BUMPER MAY COME OUT MORE. TOYOTA AND THE DEALER MUST TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM, NOT THE CONSUMER.

CAR HAS BEEN IN SERVICE FOR 4+ YEARS SINCE NEW, AND REGISTERED ABOUT 90K MILES. DURING THE RECENT ROUTINE OIL CHANGE, THE GAS CHARGED HOOD LIFT SUPPORT FAILED WHILE THE HOOD IS UP, AND THE HOOD CAME CRASHING DOWN. WHEN THE HOOD WAS OPENED, IT STAYED UP, NO SIGNS OF PROBLEM. THE FAILURE HAPPENED WELL INTO OIL CHANGE, WHEN I WAS UNDER THE CAR, AND THERE WAS NOTHING IN THE ENGINE BAY. SO I WAS LUCKY, EXTREMELY. NO BODILY DAMAGE NOR PROPERTY DAMAGE. I THEN ASSESSED THE SITUATION, DUE TO THE WAY THE STRUTS ARE PLACED, WHEN THE STRUTS FAILED, THE HOOD WOULD HAVE A FREE FALL FROM GREATER THAN 45-DEG ANGLE, WHICH WOULD GENERATE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FORCE GIVEN THE WEIGHT OF THE HOOD. THIS CAN EASILY CAUSE BODILY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE IF THE PERSON WORKING THE CAR IS CAUGHT BETWEEN THE OPENED HOOD AND THE FRONT FRAME OF THE CAR. A FAIL-SAFE MEASURE SHOULD BE ADDED TO THE CAR TO AVOID INJURY.
