2019 Toyota Camry

STARTED NOTICING THAT THE CAR WAS FEELING WEAK WHEN ACCELERATING, AND WITH NO REASON AT ALL, AT SPEEDS AROUND 70MPH THE CAR SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY. YOU LOSE STEERING AND BRAKING CAPABILITIES WHICH MAKES IT HARD TO SAFELY MERGE INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE. TOYOTA HAS A KNOWLEDGED THE RECALL BUT WITH NO REMEDY AS OF YET (IT HAS BEEN SINCE OCTOBER 2020 THAT THEY RECALL WAS ISSUED), AND SAYS CAR IS UNSAFE THAT IF I DRIVE VEHICLE TO STAY IN RIGHT LANE OF INTERSTATE WHICH TO ME IS JUST AS DANGEROUS AS TRAVELING IN ANY LANE ON INTERSTATE, THOUGH THEY RECOMMENDED NOT DRIVING VEHICLE. AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, THE VEHICLE ONLY WILL STALL OUT AT A HIGHER SPEED (AROUND 70MPH).

MY CAR HAS VERY LITTLE POWER. I AM AFRAID TO MAKE LEFT HAND TURNS IN TRAFFIC BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW IF THE CAR WILL MOVE WITH PROPER AND ACCURATE SPEED. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD A RECALL OF THE FUEL SYSTEM FOR WHICH THE MANUFACTURER DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR. MY TIRES CONSTANTLY LOSE AIR SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT THE CAR. MY GAS TANK ACCESS DOOR DOESN'T OPEN PROPERLY, ALSO SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THE DASH SCREEN GOES OFF SPONTANEOUSLY.

I GOT THIS EMAIL CLEARLY STATING THAT MY 2019 TOYOTA CAMRY IS INVOLVED IN A RECALL, SO I SCHEDULED A APPOINTMENT AT NORTHRIDGE TOYOTA IN NORTHRIDGE CALIFORNIA ON NOVEMBER 27TH AT 8AM, AND THEY TOLD ME THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE FUEL PUMP REPLACEMENT. I'M VERY ANGRY, IT'S NOT SAFE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP!!!!!! 'YOUR VEHICLE MAY BE INVOLVED IN A SAFETY RECALL AND MAY CREATE A SAFETY RISK FOR YOU OR YOUR PASSENGERS. IF LEFT UNREPAIRED, A POTENTIAL SAFETY DEFECT COULD LEAD TO INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. SAFETY DEFECTS MUST BE REPAIRED BY A DEALER AT NO COST TO YOU.' NHTSA RECALL ID NUMBER :20V682 MANUFACTURER :TOYOTA MOTOR ENGINEERING & MANUFACTURING SUBJECT :FUEL PUMP MAY FAIL

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM A DEALER IN JUNE OF 2020 AND WAS UNAWARE OF ANY ONGOING RECALLS OR THAT ANY REQUIRED SERVICE HAD NOT BEEN COMPLETED. I'VE HAD THE VEHICLE IN THE SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES FOR ENGINE STALLING WHILE DRIVING, ENGINE SHAKING, MISFIRING, AND LOSS OF FORWARD MOMENTUM. NOT ONCE DID THEY TELL ME ABOUT THE RECALL OR THAT TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM UNTIL I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT AUTOMOTIVE SHOP. THE NEW SHOP GAVE ME ALL THE RECALL INFORMATION AND ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THE ENGINE WILL SPUTTER AND SHAKE IN IDLE AND IN REVERSE. CONSISTENTLY THE VEHICLE SHAKES AND RUNS VERY ROUGH WHEN IN IDLE, REVERSE OR ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM STOP LIGHTS, RED LIGHTS, PARKING LOTS, ETC. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT I WASN'T USED TO THE ELECTRONIC FUEL IGNITION AND THAT THE SPUTTERING AND DELAY IN FORWARD MOMENTUM WAS NORMAL. ONE TIME I WAS DRIVING 65MPH AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE ON A ISLAND CAUSEWAY. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE RIGHT HAD LANE AND WAS ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD SAFELY. ANOTHER TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED WAS IN A PARKING LOT (AGAIN SLOW SPEED) AND AGAIN IN REVERSE. THE VEHICLE DID SUSTAIN RODENT DAMAGE TO WIRING ON 2 OCCASIONS WHICH THE DEALERSHIP REPAIRED, NOTED THE MULTIPLE ENGINE MISFIRES AND "CLEARED THE CODES". THE VEHICLE RAN BETTER FOR ABOUT A WEEK AND THEN THE SAME PROBLEM BEGINS REOCCURRING. THE SPARK PLUGS CONTINUE TO FOUL DUE TO THE ENGINE FUEL PRESSURE ISSUE.

MY VEHICLE WILL STALL AND STOPS RANDOMLY. IT IS LOSING POWER AT STOP SIGNS AND STOP LIGHTS WHEN I HIT THE BRAKES. A FEW TIMES IT LOSE POWER TEMPORARY WHILE IN MOTION. IT KEEP SHOWING "CHARGING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION AND STOP IN A SAFE PLACE" MESSAGE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT WILL GO BACK TO NORMAL AFTER 5 MINUTES AND THEN THE WHOLE THING REPEATS A DAY OR TWO LATER. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO FIX BUT THEY CONCLUDED THE CAR IS ALRIGHT SINCE THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE. BUT THE PROBLEM IS THERE AND THE CAR KEEPS UNSAFE STOPPING. MY VEHICLE PROBLEM SEEMS SIMILAR TO THOSE OF JANUARY 13TH 2020 "FUEL PUMP MAY FAIL RECALL" NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER 20V012000.

I WAS IN THE DRIVE THRU QUEUE AT BURGER KING AND I HAD THE BRAKE HOLD ACTIVATED, WAITING FOR MY TURN. THE CAR JUST VIBRATED AND SHUT DOWN. I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN IT NEVER STARTED. ON THE DASH IT SAID COOLANT TEMP HIGH, CHARGING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION, DRIVE START CONTROL MALFUNCTION,BRAKE OVERRIDE MALFUNCTION. I THOUGHT I NEEDED ANTIFREEZE SO I WALKED TO SUNOKO TO BUY ONE. TRIED TO PUT SOME IN BUT ANTIFREEZE WAS FULL SO I COULDN'T TOP UP. THE ANTIFREEZE IS IN THE TRUNK. I TRIED TO GET A JUMP THINKING IT WAS THE BATTERY BUT IT STILL DIDN'T START. I TOWED TO TOYOTA AND NOW THEY'RE TELLING ME THE COMPUTERS ARE NOT COMMUNICATING RIGHT WITH EACH OTHER. MY GAS SAYS 65535MI DISTANCE TO EMPTY. MY CAR IS BEEN SITTING AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR A WEEK NOW AND THEY DIDN'T GIVE ME A LOANER CAR EVEN THOUGH I HAVE WARRANTY ON IT.

I EXPERIENCED FUEL PUMP FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET, I WAS ABLE TO STOP CAR SAFELY AND RESTART IT.
