2014 Toyota Camry

I HAVE HAD ALL 4 OF MY DOOR ACTUATORS REPLACED. TWO OF MY DOOR ACTUATORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, SO I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE THE DOOR ACTUATORS. ALTHOUGH, I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLES ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. THE LOCKS WILL WORK SOMETIMES AND NOT WORK SOMETIMES. THEY PICK AND CHOOSE WHEN THEY WANT TO WORK. ADDITIONALLY, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE A/C MOTOR ONCE, AND THE NEW ONE GOES IN AND OUT. I SOMETIMES HAVE TO HIT BENEATH THE DASH TO GET MY A/C TO KICK ON.

TOUCHSCREEN DOES NOT WORK 100%. AS YOU TRAVEL DOWN TOWARD THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN, THE TOUCH SENSOR IS OFF. WHEN YOU GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN, YOU CAN NOT SUCCESSFULLY TOUCH ANY ICONS WITHIN AROUND THE BOTTOM INCH OF THE SCREEN. THIS DOES AFFECT SYNCING A NEW HANDS FREE DEVICE. THIS MAKES IT A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE YOU CANNOT SYNC A NEW PHONE OR BLUETOOTH DEVICE FOR SAFE DRIVING. THIS VEHICLE IS DRIVEN IN PENNSYLVANIA AND MARYLAND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE TURNING SIGNALS WOULD MALFUNCTIONING PERIODICALLY. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS BLACK SMOKE ENTERING THE VEHICLE FROM THE AIR VENTS PERIODICALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FAMILY TOYOTA OF ARLINGTON (1661 WET N WILD WAY, ARLINGTON, TX 76011) WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIGHT BULBS IN THE HEADLAMPS WERE REPLACED AND THE HEADLAMPS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 103,000.

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.

THE FRONT DOOR LOCKS NO LONGER OPERATE BY REMOTE. THIS IS NOT A REMOTE PROBLEM SINCE MY REAR DOOR LOCKS DO RESPOND. I BELIEVE THE FRONT DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE FAILED ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THE REPAIRS FOR THIS WILL COST HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. THERE IS CURRENTLY A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN CALIFORNIA. I THINK THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM.

FIRST NOTICED LAST YEAR 2018. HEAT AND A/C CONTROLS SEEMED TO BE FLUCTUATING. A/C STOPPED BLOWING COLD AIR A FEW TIMES, UNTIL I STARTED DRIVING A FEW MORE MILES, WORKED SOMEWHAT. NOW MARCH 2019, A/C SEEMED TO BE GETTING WARM IT IS NOT BLOWING COLD AIR AND THE OUTSIDE AIR CONTROL STAYS ON BUT SHOULD NOT WITH THE A/C CONTROL. HEAT SEEMS TO WORK ON AND OFF, JUST NOT WORKING PROPERLY. THIS IS ALL WHILE DRIVING. I LEASED THIS CAR, THE ONLY OWNER, GARAGED AND ONLY 41K MILES. I ALSO GOT A WEIRD SMELL ONE TIME BUT CAN'T REMEMBER WHEN IT WAS. I AM GOING TO CALL FLEMINGTON TOYOTA AND SEE WHAT THEY SAY. PROBABLY NOT COVERED. I AM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS AND THAT IS SO DISTRESSING AND DISHEARTENING.
