2007 Toyota Camry Complaint Log

DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS GOTTEN VERY STICKY. CAUSES GLARE ON WINDSHIELD AND MAKES DRIVING VERY HAZARDOUS. *TR

MY TOYOTA SOLERA IS GOING THRU EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL! I'M CONTINUOUSLY ADDING OIL...AND IT'S NOT LEAKING ANYWHERE. ...WHERE THE HELL IS IT GOING! MY ENGINE IS GOING TO BURN UP! I WANT ANSWERS! 2.4 L 4-CYLIMDER (2AZ-FE). *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND CRACKING. PIECES ARE STARTING TO FALL OFF. NOT SURE HOW THIS MAY AFFECT INSIDE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AS THEY MAY BE EXPOSED THROGH THE CRACKS. IN CASA OF AN ACCIDENT THE DASBOARD MAY CRUMBLE AND PIECES MAY CAUSE BODY DAMAGE TO FACE AND EYES. TOYOTA KNOWS OF THIS PROBLEM BUT IN TAKING TO MUCH TIME TO MAKE REPAIRS. IN FACT NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN DONE IN MY LOCAL DEALER TO ANY OF THE AFECTED UNITS DUE TO LACK OF PARTS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT A YEAR.

I HAVE SEEN COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WEARING OUT ON 2007 CAMRY. NO RECALLS AND PEOPLE BEING LEFT TO PAY FOR REPAIR OR TO GET A REPLACEMENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH MY CAMRY. THE VISOR ARM BROKE OUT OF MY VISOR. IT FIRST WOULD NOT STAY UP WHEN NOT NEEDED THEN IT JUST COMPLETELY BROKE. I THINK THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY TOYOTA. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR THAT THE VISOR WORE OUT. *TR

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS CAME SUDDENLY ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING. I TESTED THE BREAK AND I HAD TO PUSH HARD TO MAKE IT WORK. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND AT 65 MPH. I GOT REALLY SCARED AND AFTER A WHILE EVERYTHING CAME BACK TO NORMAL. IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY AND HAPPENING FREQUENTLY.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY MY BRAKE LIGHT TURNED ON. I THOUGHT I LEFT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL DOWN, BUT EVERYTHING WAS FINE. SUDDENLY ALL WARNING LIGHTS IN DASHBOARD TURNED ON, AS A REACTION I TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES AND TO MY SURPRISE MY BRAKES WOULDN'T BRAKE PROPERLY. *TR

WHILE BRAKING ON A SLIGHT INCLINE MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID'S POWER BRAKES AND STEERING MALFUNCTIONED MAKING THE VEHICLE HARD TO STEER AND STOP. IT FELT AS IF BOTH THE POWER BRAKES AND STEERING WENT OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY AND THE CAR SEEMED TO ROLL, OR SWAY, LEFT AND RIGHT. AT THE SAME TIME A "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WARNING APPEARED ON MY DASH ALONG WITH THE RED BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHT, RED SERVICE INDICATOR LIGHT (TRIANGLE WITH EXCLAMATION POINT), AMBER BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT AND THE AMBER ABS WARNING LIGHT. IF I HAD BEEN TRAVELING AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED, IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR HAD I BEEN APPROACHING A CROWDED CROSSWALK OR INTERSECTION THIS EVENT COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. AFTER PULLING OVER AND VISUALLY INSPECTING MY BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND ENGINE COMPARTMENT I USED MY CELL PHONE TO CHECK ONLINE AND FOUND OTHERS WITH SIMILAR PROBLEMS (WHICH LED ME HERE TO FILE A COMPLAINT/REPORT). AFTER WAITING ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR THE WARNING MESSAGE AND LIGHTS WENT OUT SO I SLOWLY DROVE TO THE DEALER 5 MILES AWAY. THE DEALER INFORMED ME THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $3607.88 (PLUS TAX ON THE $3000.00 PART). MY SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TOYOTA CSR PROCLAIMS TO HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS ISSUE -- EVEN THOUGH MY WEB SEARCHING HAS TURNED UP LOTS OF DISCUSSION AND ARTICLES (I.E. L.A. TIMES REPORT, CBS, NBC, AP, CONSUMER AFFAIRS PLUS THE NHTSA ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE OPENING OF THEIR INVESTIGATION AT THE END OF JANUARY 2014). *TR

THE DASHBOARD ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IS MELTING. IT IS SUPER SOFT AND SUPER SHINY. EVERYTHING IS STICKING TO IT. IF YOU PRESS ON IT WITH A FINGERNAIL, YOUR FINGERNAIL WILL EASILY SINK INTO THE MELTED PLASTIC. I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. THE SHINY RESIDUE THAT HAS SEEPED OUT OF THE DASH IS CAUSING A GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF THIS CAR. I CAN'T BELIEVE THE DASH IS DISINTEGRATING. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY IN JULY 2006, NEW. AT APPROXIMATELY 50K MILES, WHEN TURNING CORNERS MY ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS STALLING, THE ACCELERATOR DID NOT WORK, AND A "LOW ENGINE FUEL" WARNING CAME ON. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ASSURED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. THIS SAME INCIDENT OCCURRED AT LEAST 7 TIMES SINCE AND EACH TIME I WAS ASSURED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY, AND THEN MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN THESE INCIDENTS FIRST OCCURRED. I'M NOW AT 108K MILES. FOR THE PAST TWO WEEKS WHILE DRIVING AND TURNING CORNERS, THE "LOW ENGINE FUEL" WARNING DISPLAYED BRIEFLY. SINCE THE DEALERSHIP PREVIOUSLY ASSURED ME THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR, AND MY CAR HAD 2K MORE MILES BEFORE MY NEXT OIL CHANGE, I CONTINUED TO DRIVE MY CAR. THEN ON SUNDAY, JUNE 25TH I DECIDED TO HAVE AUTO ZONE TAKE A LOOK AT MY CAR. TO MY UTTER SURPRISE, THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO OIL ON THE STICK WHEN THE AUTO ZONE GUY CHECKED MY OIL LEVELS. I PURCHASED TWO QUARTS OF OIL AND THE AUTO ZONE GUY PUT THE OIL IN MY CAR. THE FOLLOWING SATURDAY I TOOK MY CAR TO MY USUAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED MY EXPERIENCE. THE SERVICE ADVISOR INFORMED ME THAT MY PISTON IS PROBABLY WORN OUT AND OIL IS PROBABLY LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE, WHICH WOULD BE A $4K REPAIR COST. AS I STATED TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR, AT ANY MOMENT MY CAR CAN CONK OUT WHILE DRIVING, BECAUSE OIL IS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE AND THE ONLY TIME A WARNING APPEARS IS WHEN I TURN CORNERS. IF I'M DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WHERE SPEEDS ARE IN EXCESS OF 80 MPH, AND MY CAR CONKS OUT BECAUSE OIL IS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE, THAT IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. A SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO OVERHEARD OUR CONVERSATION STATED, "YEAH, THE ENGINES ON THOSE CARS ARE A PIECE OF JUNK." TOYOTA REFUSES FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING IT IS VERY STICKY AND SHINY AND THIS CAUSES A TERRIBLE GLARE ON THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING THAT CAN IMPEDE VISION. *TR

I BACKED OUT OF DRIVEWAY, PUT CAR INTO DRIVE AND STEERING BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO CONTROL.

VEHICLE STARTED IN DRIVEWAY, FOOT ON BRAKE. WHEN PARKING BRAKE WAS RELEASED THE VEHICLE ROLLED INTO STREET DESPITE THE BRAKE PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED. BRAKES ENGAGED SUDDENLY AFTER ROLLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC. *TR SECOND INCIDENT AT GAS STATION. VEHICLE IN DRIVE, FOOT ON BRAKE, WHEN PARKING BRAKE RELEASED VEHICLE BEGAN TO ROLL FORWARD, A THUD WAS HEARD AND BRAKES APPLIED SUDDENLY AFTER ROLLING SEVERAL FEET.

I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM A SMALL DEALERSHIP WITH AROUND 149700 MILES 2WEEKS LATER A VSC MESSAGE CAME ON WITH A COUPLE OF LIGHTS AFTER INVESTING ONLINE FOUND OUT IS A MANUFACTURE PROBLEM AND THEN AFTER FURTHER CHECK FOUND OUT IT WAS TAKEN IN TO TOYOTA TO VERIFY THAT SAME PROBLEM I GOT SO I CALLED THEM THEY TOLD ME IS THE BRAKE ACTUATOR WAS BAD AND THE COST IS 3500 THANK YOU *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE GAUGES FLUCTUATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE ABS LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE DROPPED TO ZERO. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL WIRING ISSUE AND THE ABS SYSTEM WAS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

VEHICLE SERVICED 3/10/10 UNDER TOYOTA 90L RECALL CAMPAIGN. DEALERSHIP STATED ALL SYSTEMS FUNCTIONAL UPON COMPLETION. ON 5/21/14, IN SAFE ROAD CONDITIONS AND PARKING LOT SPEEDS <10 MPH, DRIVER APPLIED BRAKES TO VEHICLE IN ORDER TO PULL INTO PARKING SPOT. DURING BRAKING, VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW OR STOP, BUT ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED, STRIKING A PARKING BERM AND THREE OTHER VEHICLES. POLICE REPORT MADE; DRIVER NOT CITED BUT WAS ADVISED TO CONTACT TOYOTA RE BRAKE FAILURE AND ACCELERATION. TOYOTA WAS CONTACTED; INSPECTION WAS MADE BY BOSCH ENGINEERING. TOYOTA CONTENDS THE INCIDENT IS NOT A RESULT OF ANY MANUFACTURING DEFECT. TOYOTA PROVIDED A TECHNICAL REPORT CONTAINING ENGINEERING DATA WITHOUT LAYMAN'S EXPLANATION OR PROOF OF ITS CONTENTION. TOYOTA WAS FOUND BY THE DOJ TO HAVE MISLED CONSUMERS AND THE GOVT REGARDING SEVERITY AND "RESOLUTION: OF THIS ISSUE. ON 8/21/14 AND 8/22/14 DRIVER WAS CONTACTED BY TOYOTA WITH A SECOND AND SEPARATE RECALL NOTICE #E0U, AFFECTING THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE RESERVOIRS, IN WHICH CLOGGING AND/OR LOW FLUID LEVELS "COULD CAUSE ADDITIONAL WARNING LAMPS[...]TO ILLUMINATE AND FRONT BRAKE ASSIST COULD BE TEMPORARILY LOST." THE WARNING LAMP IN QUESTION DID ILLUMINATE DURING THE 5/21 INCIDENT. LEGAL COUNSEL FOR DRIVER HAS ADVISED AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE BOSCH REPORT AND INSPECTION OF THE BRAKE RESERVOIR; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND SOLD AT AUCTION BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY'S SALVAGE AGENT. I HAVE INITIATED AN INDEPENDENT REVIEW OF THE BOSCH REPORT AT MY OWN EXPENSE. IN LIGHT OF TOYOTA'S MISLEADING CONDUCT REGARDING RECALL CAMPAIGN 90L AND THE SUBSEQUENT RECALL #E0U, DRIVER CONTENDS THAT TOYOTA IS AT FAULT FOR THE EVENTS OF 5/21/14.

THE PROBLEM STARTED AROUND 40K MILES WITH MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2007, WHILE DRIVING THE BREAK LIGHT WARNING WOULD COME ON AS WELL AS THE ABS & PARKING WARNING LIGHT. THE ODOMETER & RPM GAUGES GO TO ZERO. WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING THE BREAKS TAKE HARDER AND LONGER TO ENGAGE. THE CAR SHAKES AS WELL WITH MINIMAL BREAKING EFFICIENCY. INTERMITTENTLY THE STEERING WHEELS ALSO BECOMES HARD TO TURN AND SHAKES VIGOROUSLY, WHICH WOULD CAUSE MY WRIST TO HURT. TOYOTA DEALER INDICATED THAT NEW BREAK ACTUATOR IS REQUIRED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY ASKED ME TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER. THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE BREAK ACTUATOR PROBLEM. I FOLLOWED UP WITH ANOTHER LETTER TO THE EXECUTIVE AT TOYOTA, ABBASS SADDAT, VP. DANICA WITH EXECUTIVE OFFICE CONTACT ME BACK. SHE STARTED BY BRUSHING ME OFF INITIALLY. WHEN I INDICATED THAT THE SAME PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED BY TOYOTA FOR THE SAME YEAR FOR THE HYBRID VERSION, SHE INDICATED THAT OK, SO IT IS NOT FOR OUR GAS MODEL. I INDICATED THAT THE WHEN YOU CONTACT TOYOTA DEALER PARTS DEPARTMENT, IT IS THE SAME PART FOR BOTH GAS AND HYBRID. SO WHEN SHE HEARD THAT, SHE SAID, 'OHH' OK, LET ME INVESTIGATE THE PROBLEM. SHE MADE IT EVIDENT THAT HER JOB WAS TO BRUSH ME OFF, WITHOUT ACTUALLY LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM OR WANTING TO KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT IT. IT IS VERY OBVIOUS THAT TOYOTA WILL NOT TAKE INITIATIVE UNLESS A MEMBER OF THE PUBLIC DIES OR GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED. SO FAR I AM STILL WAITING FOR HE R CONTACTING ME CONFIRM HE DEALERS FINDING OR ADDRESS THE PROBLEM. THIS A SERIOUS PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE. FURTHER MORE, THE TOYOTA DEALER INDICATED THE CAR IS WORTH $7200. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO REPLACE A ABS BREAK ACTUATOR TO BE CLOSE TO THE HALF OF THE PRICE OF THE CAR EITHER.

MY NAME IS [XXX] AND I AM THE THIRD SECRETARY OF THE EMBASSY OF THE REPUBLIC OF TURKEY IN LIMA. I OWN A TOYOTA CAMRY LE 2007. THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER WILL CEASE TO INDICATE PROPER READINGS AND DROP TO ZERO. THE TACHOMETER WILL THEN BOUNCE BETWEEN ZERO AND WHAT I CAN ONLY ASSUME IS A CLOSE APPROXIMATION OF THE ACTUAL ENGINE RPM. AT THE SAME TIME, THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AND STAY ON FOR THE DURATION OF THE "EPISODE". THESE LAST ANYWHERE FROM 10 SECONDS TO 10 MINUTES. IN THE MEANTIME, THE CAR RUNS NORMALLY FROM WHAT I CAN DISCERN. I CAN BE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 OR SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT IDLING AND THESE EPISODES OCCUR. THERE ARE NO OTHER INDICATIONS THAT SOMETHING IS AMISS...NO ROUGH IDLING, NO ENGINE STALLING, JUST THE DISPLAY. THIS IS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, 4 CYL, 5 SPD AUTOMATIC. I HAVE INSPECTED THE TRANSAXLE INPUT AND OUTPUT SHAFT SENSORS AND THEY APPEAR TO BE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS OF OIL BUILDUP OR BROKEN/SHORTED WIRES. CONNECTIONS ALL LOOK GOOD FROM WHAT I CAN TELL. AUTHORIZED TOYOTA DEALERS IN PERU DO NOT ACCEPT TO INSPECT AND REPAIR MY CAR SINCE IT IS A US MODEL. I AM WAITING YOUR RESPONSE FOR THIS SERIOUS PROBLEM. WHEN I BROWSE THE ONLINE FORUMS. I HAVE FOUND THAT MANY PEOPLE SUFFER THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM SENDING YOU A YOUTUBE LINK THAT EXAPMLIFIES MY PROBLEM.

CURRENTLY, THE VEHICLE'S DASHBOARD IS PARTIALLY MELTED, STICKY, AND SHINY. THIS SHININESS CAUSES A GLARE OFF THE WINDSHIELD WHICH OBSTRUCTS MY VIEW WHEN DRIVING. I HAVE RESORTED TO USING A DASHBOARD COVER SO AS TO STOP THE GLARE. I HAVE A SAFETY CONCERN SINCE THIS DASHBOARD COVER OVERLAPS OVER THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG. *TR

COPY OF AN EMAIL SENT TO TOYOTA: I AM WRITING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT AN ISSUE THAT JUST AROSE WITH MY TOYOTA SOLARA CONVERTIBLE. IT IS A 2007 VEHICLE THAT I LOVE. I HAVE TAKEN CARE OF IT AND DRIVE IT JUDICIOUSLY. I ONLY HAVE 31,500 (APPROXIMATELY) MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT WHICH I PURCHASED IT FOR MAINTENANCE, ANY RECALL REPAIRS NEEDED, ETC. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE, THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND, NO MATTER HOW MINOR. THE AIRBAGS HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED FOR ANY REASON. NOW, FOR MY COMPLAINT: ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF AGO, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND IMMEDIATELY MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS EXAMINED. LAST THURSDAY, THE 17TH OF MAY, THE SERVICE MAN AT THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT WORKING, CANNOT BE FIXED AND THE SYSTEM NEEDS REPLACED. I ORDERED SAID SYSTEM SINCE I DO NOT WANT TO BE WITHOUT THE AIRBAG PROTECTION. HOWEVER? I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT HAVING TO SPEND $700 TO REPLACE THIS NEEDED SYSTEM WHEN NOTHING OCCURRED TO CAUSE THIS SYSTEM TO FAIL. I KNOW I NEED IT AND FEEL THAT I HAVE TRIED TO TAKE CARE OF THE CAR AND HAVE NOT ABUSED IT. I REALIZE REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS NECESSARY AND SOME THINGS OCCASIONALLY NEED TO BE REPLACED, SUCH AS, TIRES, BRAKES, ETC. BUT AN AIRBAG SYSTEM? REALLY? MY OTHER CAR IS A 2009 TOYOTA RAV 4 AND I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO CARE FOR THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG IN THE RAV 4 OR ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE HAD IN THE PAST (SINCE AIRBAGS WERE FIRST INSTALLED IN CARS). THIS REALLY, REALLY UPSETS ME!!! I AND MY HUSBAND ARE RETIREES AND ON A FIXED INCOME AND REALLY FEEL THE EXPENSE FOR THIS ITEM IS HORRIBLE AND WONDER WHY SOMETHING LIKE THIS ISN?T COVERED BY TOYOTA. *JS

STICKY, SHINY AND CRACKED DASHBOARD. THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING AND IS SO SHINY THAT I CAN NOT SEE BECAUSE THE GLARE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE WINDSHIELD WIPER INTERMITTENTLY DISENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.

WHEN I TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES TO STOP, I REALIZED THAT THE BRAKE HAD COMPLETELY FAILED AND I WAS ON THE 110 FREEWAY ON A BUSY MONDAY MORNING. LUCKILY I DIDN'T REAR END THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE DEALER IS TELLING ME THAT MY BRAKE SYSTEM (ACCUATOR AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS) ARE OUT. THE CAR COMPUTER SYSTEM CANNOT COMMUNICATE TO THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND THUS I MIGHT LOOSE BRAKES IF I KEEP RUNNING. THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHT TURNED ON ALONG WITH THE ABS, HYBRID BATTERY, PARK AND ALL OTHER ALERT LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD. IN ADDITION, I'M TOLD MY AUXILLARY BATTERY IS ALSO OUT ($460) DEALER IS CHARGING ME $4800 DOLLAR (EXCLUDING THE AUX BATTERY) AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO SINCE THE CAR IS WITH THE DEALER AND I'M TOLD THE BRAKES WILL FAIL IF I CONTINUE TO DRIVE. I HAVE 104,000 MILES AND HAVE DONE ALL SERVICING AT TOYOTA DEALERS. NO WARRANTIES AND BASICALLY THEY CAN'T HELP. *JS

THE CAR CONSUMES OIL EXCESSIVELY. MORE THAN 2 QUARTS LOW AFTER 1500 MILES. *TR

MY DASHBOARD IS SOFT TO TOUCH AND STICKY ESPECIALLY IN THE HEAT. IF YOU TOUCH IT WITH YOUR NAIL IT WILL MAKE A INDENTION. IT IS VERY HOT TO TOUCH. *TR

I HAVE BEEN HAVING OFF AND ON OCCURRENCES OF THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WARNING WITH BRAKE, ABS, ETC. THE COST TO REPAIR IS OVER $3,000. FOR THE BRAKE ACTUATOR / ACCUMULATOR. BRAKES STILL SORT OF WORK BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO STOP IN A HURRY AND I'M NOT SURE IF I'LL TOTALLY LOSE THE ABILITY TO STOP THE CAR IN THE NEAR FUTURE. THIS IS A PRETTY NASTY PROBLEM THAT SEEMS TO BE COMMON AMONG ALL OF THE CAMRY HYBRIDS OF THIS VINTAGE. I HOPE A RECALL IS ISSUED SOON AND THAT TOYOTA CAN WORK WITH CUSTOMERS ON THIS GIVEN THAT THE PROBLEM COSTS 10% OF WHAT THE CAR WAS WORTH BRAND NEW TO FIX. *TR

DRIVING ALONG A CITY ROAD IN MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID (MILEAGE APPROX. 49K) AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH WHEN I SAW THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" AND "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM" WARNINGS ON MIL AND SIMULTANEOUSLY GOT NO RESPONSE FROM PRESSING EITHER THE BRAKE OR IGNITION PEDAL. CAR WOULD NOT GO AND WOULD NOT STOP. I COASTED TO THE SHOULDER AND THE CAR SLOWED TO A STOP (FORTUNATELY IN A LEGAL PARKING SPOT!). I AM HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. I WILL PROVIDE AN UPDATE WHEN I KNOW MORE. *TR

I ADJUSTED THE STEERING COLUMN WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN I LOCKED EVERYTHING IN PLACE, THE AIRBAG LIGHT LIT UP. ALL OF THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL DO NOT WORK. I CAN'T USE THE HORN; TURN THE RADIO ON OR MAKE HANDS FREE CALLS. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE AIRBAG AND IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE REPAIR. I'VE LEFT IT ALONE FOR 5 YEARS. I FIGURE WITH THE TAKATA AIR BAG ISSUE I MIGHT BE BETTER OFF. *TR

NOTICED THAT MY DASHBOARD HAD AN GLARE, WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO WIPE IT DOWN, THE TOWEL BEGIN TO STICK. *TR

I WASN'T DRIVING MY CAR WHEN ALL THE LIGHTS CAME ON. BUT EVERY BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON AND A MESSAGE READ CHECK VSC SYSTEM. I HAD NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A SOUND THE CAR MAKES WHEN THE CAR IS NOT ON. BUT I THOUGHT IT WAS THE CAR IDENTIFYING THE KEY WAS CLOSE BECAUSE I ALWAYS HAD THE KEY WITH ME WHEN I WOULD HEAR THIS SOUND. THE MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS TOLD ME THAT SOUND IS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM. THE ONLY PLACE TO GET THE PART IS THROUGH TOYOTA AND ESTIMATED COST FOR THE PART IS $2500. IF THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF WHY ARE THEY NOT MADE TO RECALL THIS ITEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. WHO HAS THAT KIND OF MONEY TO MAKE A REPAIR ? *TR

2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CAUGHT FIRE SPONTANEOUSLY. *MW THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS. *JB

UPON DEPRESSING BRAKE PEDAL (AT STOP OR WHILE MOVING), A LOUD "CHIRPING" TYPE NOISE REPEATS UNTIL BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED. MY LOCAL DEALER INDICATED IT WAS THE ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR THAT MAY BE LEAKING INTERNALLY, AND THAT UNTIL IT LEAKS EXTERNALLY WOULD BE OK TO DRIVE, ALTHOUGH COULD BE A FEW DAYS OR A FEW MONTHS BEFORE NEEDING REPLACEMENT. THEY ESTIMATED THE COST OF REPAIR AT $3,000.00. ABOUT 45 DAYS LATER, I AM GETTING MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD, INCLUDING THE ABS SYSTEM, BRAKE LIGHT (NORMALLY ONLY ON WHEN I HAVE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED), CHECK VSC SYSTEM, AND A GENERAL WARNING SYMBOL. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, I SEE THERE ARE UP TO 59 COMPLAINTS ALREADY FILED WITH THE NHTSA REGARDING THIS ISSUE, MANY INDICATING SUDDEN BRAKE LOSS. I FEEL I MUST TAKE THIS IMMEDIATELY TO A TOYOTA DEALER FOR REPAIR, EVEN AT THE HUGE EXPENSE, AND ALL WHILE ON THE ROAD DURING MY FAMILY VACATION AS IT MAY NOT BE SAFE TO DRIVE AT THIS TIME. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR WOULD FALL DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. HOWEVER, THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR VEHICLE WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,500.

DASHBOARD RECAL AS THE TITLE APTLY SUGGESTS, MY CAMRY'S DASHBOARD HAS MELTED DUE TO THE EXTREME HEAT. MY WINDSHIELD HAS NO TINT AND I SOMETIMES FORGET TO PUT UP THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER WHEN I PARK. THE DASHBOARD NOW FEELS VERY STICKY AND WHEN I LEAVE THE CAR UNDER THE SUN FOR A LONG STRETCH, I CAN ACTUALLY RUB OFF SOME OF THE DASHBOARD'S RUBBER COATING SURFACE IF I TOUCH IT. IT ALSO HAS SEVERAL SCRATCHES DUE TO ACCIDENTAL HITS FROM FINGERNAILS AND SUCH, AND A LOT OF SCRATCHES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER (YES, THE DASHBOARD IS NOW THAT SOFT). I'M AFRAID TO APPLY ANYTHING ON IT AS THIS MIGHT JUST MAKE ITS CONDITION WORSE. MY LAST OPTION IS TO USE A DASHBOARD COVER TO HIDE THE SCRATCHES AND PREVENT THE DASHBOARD FROM GETTING DAMAGED FURTHER. MY CONCERNS WITH THIS OPTION ARE: WHERE DO I BUY A GOOD/DECENT-LOOKING DASHBOARD COVER FOR MY CAR? (MY DASHBOARD IS COLOR BLACK). I'M BASED IN FORT BUCHANAN, GUAYNABO AND WOULD THIS GET IN THE WAY OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG? ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ASIDE FROM MY IDEA ABOVE, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO EXPRESS THEM. HELP DESPERATELY NEEDED. THANKS [XXX] [XXX] TODAY I HAVE ATTEMPTED IN CONTACTING YOU ON THE NUMBER YOU PROVIDED WITH A NEGATIVE RESULT. THE NUMBER RINGS AND IMMEDIATELY GOES INTO A OCCUPIED MODE. (877) 855-8377 NONE RESPONSIVE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERMITENT KNOCKING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO WAS NOT ABLE TO NEITHER DUPLICATE NOR DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. SINCE THE FAILURE PERSISTED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

I PURCHASED MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY 3YRS AGO, THIS CAR BURNS SO MUCH OIL, I KEEP MY OIL CHANGED BUT IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES I CONTINUE TO ADD AN ADDITIONAL 3 QTS, I HAVE INQUIRED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP (LOUIE HERRON) IN MILLEDGEVILLE GA, TO EXPRESS LUBE BUT NO ONE SEEMED TO TELL ME WHY MY CAR WAS BURNING SO MUCH OIL. IT WAS NOT UNTIL THIS WEEKEND I TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP IS WHEN HE ADVISED ME MY PARTICULAR VEHICLES ENGINE NEEDS REBUILT BUT IS NOT CONSIDERED A RECALL, I'M TRYING TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS, IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING AS A WOMAN TO BUY A VEHICLE FROM A DEALERSHIP AN LATER (3YEARS LATER) FIND OUT THE ENGINE IS SHOT, THE DEALERSHIP IS AWARE BUT "I" WAS LEFT IN THE DARK.. *TR

THE CAR HESITATES TO STOP AT TIMES, ISLES UP AND ACTS AS IT WANTS TO TAKE OFF, AND JERKS AS I'M DRIVING IT. IT SHOES ON THE DASH TO CHECK VSC SYSTEM. *TR

THE DASH BOARD IS STARTING TO MELT ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING IT IS EXTREMELY SHINY CAUSING A GLARE IN MY EYES WHEN I DRIVE DOWN THE ROAD. IT IS ALSO EXTREMELY STICKY TO THE TOUCH MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN. YOU CAN TAKE A FINGERNAIL TO IT AND IT LEAVES AN INDENT IN THE DASH. IT HAS STARTED CRACKING AND IS A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE DASH WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

WHILE DRIVING UP A SLIGHT INCLINE THE INDICATING LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD SUDDENLY ILLUMINATED - RED BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING ICON, RED ABS LIGHT, RED BRAKE LIGHT, RED MASTER WARNING LIGHT. IN ADDITION, THE SCREEN DISPLAYED "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" AND AN AUDIBLE WARNING TONE SOUNDED. FROM ABOUT 6 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, THE BRAKE ACTUATOR MOTOR WOULD CYCLE ON/OFF FREQUENTLY AFTER A TRIP. OVER TIME, THE DURATION OF THE ON AND OFF CYCLING AFTER A TRIP GRADUALLY INCREASED FROM ABOUT 30 SECONDS TO APPROXIMATELY 90 SECONDS. THE ACTUATOR MOTOR ALSO CYCLED WHEN OPENING THE DOOR BEFORE A TRIP. OTHER SYMPTOMS THAT SURFACED PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT INCLUDED FREQUENT ON/OFF CYCLING OF THE BRAKE ACTUATOR MOTOR AT TRAFFIC LIGHT STOPS AND AN AUDIBLE "BARKING" SOUND FROM UNDER THE HOOD. RESEARCH ON THE WORLD-WIDE-WEB REVEALED MANY OWNERS WITH SAME SYMPTOMS. BECAUSE THE ENGINE IN THE HYBRID CARS TURN OFF DURING NORMAL OPERATION, ENGINE VACUUM IS NOT READILY AVAILABLE FOR THE POWER BRAKE ASSISTANCE AS FOUND IN CONVENTIONAL AUTOMOBILES. CONSEQUENTLY, THE FAILURE OF THE POWER ASSIST IS DUE TO THE INADEQUATE DESIGN OF THE HYBRID SYSTEM. FURTHERMORE, I UNDERSTAND THAT THE REPLACEMENT BRAKE ACTUATOR PART THAT TOYOTA PROVIDES FOR THE 2007 AND 2008 CAMRY HYBRIDS HAS A DIFFERENT PART NO. THAN THE ORIGINAL ONE PROVIDED. THIS STRONGLY SUGGESTS THAT TOYOTA RECOGNIZES ITS ORIGINAL BRAKE ACTUATOR HAS A FAULTY DESIGN. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THE CAR SINCE THIS INCIDENT FOR FEAR OF LOSING THE POWER ASSIST ON THE BRAKES. THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER HAS NOT REPLIED TO MY INQUIRY ON THIS MATTER. I ALSO HAVE A 2009 CAMRY HYBRID AND ALTHOUGH THE BRAKE ACTUATOR CYCLES ON AND OFF AFTER OPENING THE DOOR BEFORE A TRIP AND AFTER THE SYSTEM IS SHUTDOWN FOLLOWING THE TRIP, THE CYCLE IS VERY SHORT AND THE DURATION IS NO LONGER THAN 30 SECONDS. I DO NOT HAVE ANY BRAKE PROBLEMS WITH THE 2009 MODEL. *TR

ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO I CAME TO THE REALIZATION THAT THE DASHBOARD FOR MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAD DEVELOPED A STICKY SURFACE. THE CONDITION HAS WORSENED OVER THE PAST THREE MONTHS. *TR

WHEN I ENTERED MY VEHICLE, THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG COVER WAS HANGING DOWN. IT IS STILL ATTACHED AT THE BOTTOM, BUT HANGING FROM THE TOP. I HAVE NOT RECENTLY BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, SO THERE IS NOTHING THAT I COULD HAVE DONE TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN. I CANNOT POP IT BACK INTO PLACE AND AM WORRIED SHOULD AN ACCIDENT OCCUR, THE AIR BAG WILL NOT BE OF ANY USE. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS A STICKY MESS. IT MELTS IN THE SUN AND CREATES A HORRIBLE GLARE WHILE DRIVING. I CANNOT MITIGATE THE GLARE AND IT SOMETIMES MAKES DRIVING QUITE DIFFICULT AND DANGEROUS. *TR

OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH 69,000 MILE WHICH HAS HEAVY OIL CONSUMPTION, ONE QUART EVERY 3,000 MILES APPROXIMATELY. TOYOTA SAYS THIS IS NORMAL OIL CONSUMPTION. FILED COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA USA, COMPLAINT NUMBER CR21044. THEY SAID I WAS THE FIRST COMPLAINT CONCERNING THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS NO OIL LEAKS. TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY ISSUED TSB-0094-11 BULLETIN. WOULD LIKE FOR THE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE BECAUSE IN ALL TOYOTA CAMRY 2007 FORUMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG OWNERS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. AT SOME POINT IN TIME THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE MAJOR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE ABOUT A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT TOYOTA IS AWARE OF. IF THEY WERE NOT AWARE OF PROBLEM WHY DID THEY ISSUE TSB009411? *TR

STEREO DISPLAY GRADUALLY WENT BLANK IN ABOUT 20MIN. ITS A BASE MODEL, AND IS THE SECOND TIME IN THE PAST TWO YEARS. FIRST TIME WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. SPEEDOMETER STOPPED WORKING TWO RANDOM TIMES WHILE DRIVING. AFTER THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF AND ON AGAIN SPEEDOMETER WAS FINE. *TR

ON 4/24/14 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND THOUGHT IT FELT A LITTLE SLUGGISH OR STRANGE. THEN WHEN I GOT UP TO GO TO WORK ON THE 25TH, WHEN I STARTED THE CAR EVERY LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME UP AND IT DISPLAYED MULTIPLE MESSAGES. I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED I HAVE CAR TOWED TO THEM. I DID THAT AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THE HYBRID BATTERY PACK WAS BAD. THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 100,000 MILES AND I HAD 116,000 MILES ON THE CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DASHBOARD WAS MELTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS CONFIRMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 66,800.

ON 4/05/2014, ALL 5 SEAT BELTS LOCKED AFTER PULLED OUT SO FAR. A WEEK LATER ON 04/12/2014 THE REAR PASSENGER BELT WOULD NOT LOCK AND COULD BE PULLED OUT AS FAR AS THE BELT CAN GO WITHOUT EVER LOCKING. I THEN CHECKED THE OTHER 4 BELTS AND THEY ALL DO NOT LOCK. AS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO KEEP DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND HAVE BEEN HOPING THAT THIS PROBLEM WOULD RESOLVE ITSELF AS THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH, NONE FLASH OR STAY ON AN EXTENDED TIME WHEN FIRST STARTED UP & THERE HAS BEEN NO DAMAGE/INCIDENTS WHICH COULD CAUSE THIS PROBLEM. TONIGHT I HAD A DEER STOP IN THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME WHILE GOING 55 MPH AND HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES. I HAD HOPED THAT THE SEAT BELT WOULD AT LEAST FUNCTION IN THIS SITUATION AND IT DID NOT. WILL BE CONTACTING DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT THE SAFETY BELT SYSTEM HAS FAILED IN THE CAR WHICH HAS BEEN IN NO ACCIDENTS SO THERE IS NO LEGITIMATE REASON FOR THEM TO HAVE FAILED! THE CAR IS AN 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE/4 CYL/AUTO. *TR

WHEN I WENT TO BRAKE THE CAR, THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP AND THE CAR PUSHED FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING, AND WOULD NOT STOP. I COULD NOT STOP THE CAR AND I HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES OF THE CAR IN ORDER TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. WHEN I DROVE IT INTO THE DEALER, THEY QUOTED ME $2500.00 TO FIX THE PROBLEM, WHICH I FOUND RIDICULOUS BECAUSE I CHANGED THE CAR BRAKES AT ANOTHER TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SEVERAL MONTHS AGO AND THIS CAME WITHOUT WARNING. *TR

A WEEK BEFORE THE INCIDENT, HEARD A HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM THE BRAKE DISTRIBUTOR AREA OF THE ENGINE WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED. IT CONTINUED AT ABOUT 1-MINUTE INTERVALS WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION AND ALSO WHEN PARKED AND TURNED OFF. IT WOULD END WITHIN ABOUT 5 MINUTES OF BEING TURNED OFF. IT SEEMED AS THOUGH THE BRAKES WERE TRYING TO ENGAGE OR THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT PRESSURE TO THEM. A DAY BEFORE THE INCIDENT, WHEN THE BRAKES WERE ENGAGED WHILE DRIVING, THERE WOULD BE A CHIRPING NOISE AS WELL. THEN WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, EVERY BRAKE-RELATED WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP AND A MESSAGE APPEARED SAYING, "MAINTENANCE REQUIRED. CHECK VSC SYSTEM." THE BRAKES DIDN'T FAIL, THOUGH, SO I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME I HAVE HAD VSC SYSTEM ISSUES IN THIS CAR. 3 YEARS AGO THE VERY SAME THING HAPPENED, AGAIN ON THE HIGHWAY, WHERE THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE VSC WARNING MESSAGE CAME ON AS WELL. FOR ABOUT 3 WEEKS BEFORE THAT, THE BRAKES WERE CHIRPING WHEN ENGAGED AND ALSO WHEN THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF AND PARKED, THEY WOULD CHIRP FOR A LONG TIME AS IF THEY WERE TRYING TO ENGAGE THEN TOO. IT COST ME $2100 TO REPLACE THE MODULE. NOW IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. I AM NOT PREPARED TO RISK BRAKE FAILURE NOR PAY AN EXORBITANT AMOUNT OF MONEY ON THE BRAKING SYSTEM FOR THIS CAR, AGAIN. TOYOTA NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR POOR, SHODDY DESIGN AND FIX THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY! *TR

ABS ACTUATORS IS FAILURES ON 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID 71K MILES: ABS LIGHT IS ON, THE E-BRAKE LIGHT IS ON EVEN WHEN THE E-BRAKE IS DISENGAGED, AND THE CAR IS SAYING TO CHECK THE VSC SYSTEM. THE BRAKES ARE ALSO NOTICEABLY WEAKER TO THE EXTENT THAT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY KIDS!!!!! *TR

BRAKES STARTED ACTING FUNNY AND MAKING STRANGE NOISES. I TOOK IT IN TO GET IT LOOKED AT AND WAS INFORMED THAT IT WOULD COST $3000 TO REPLACE THE ABS ACTUATOR AND THAT IF I DIDN'T, THE BRAKES COULD FAIL AT ANY TIME.
