TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CONNECTOR AND THE SUN VISOR PREMATURELY FRACTURED WITHOUT WARNING. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE CONNECTOR THAT HELD THE SUN VISOR IN PLACE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, INCLUDING THE SUN VISOR. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000. UPDATED 11/01/16*LJ *TR

I HAVE A VERY BAD CASE OF STICKY DASH BOARD WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA I TOLD THAT MY VIN NUMBER WAS NOT ONE OF THE RECALLS . I WAS TOLD THAT I CAN TAKE IT TO THE DEALER FOR AN INSPECTION AND THAT I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW JUST SOME OF THE CARS THAT ARE OF THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL ARE RECALLED BUT MY IS NOT. MY DASH BOARD IS MELTING AND TOYOTA NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY TO CORRECT THIS. I WENT TO THE BEFORE MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS TO TOLD THAT THAT WAS OK AND IN THE PASS YEAR THE DASH BOARD IS WORST AND I AM HAVE TROUBLE DRIVING DUE TO THE SHINE THAT GLARE ON THE GLASS IS DIFFICULT TO SEE AS YOUR DRIVING. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND YOU CAN GET IN TO AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS DURING THE DAYTIME OR NIGHT..

SUN VISOR DRIVER SIDE IS FALLING DOWN ON CAMRY 2011. WONT STAY IN THE UP POSITION. ALSO TOOK CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR NOISE IN THE STEERING AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE STEERING SHAFT WHICH IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE 5 YEAR WARRANTY. CAR ONLY 58000 MILES.

JULY 2016 I WAS PULLING AWAY FROM MY BANK ATM AT APPROX.2-5 MPH IN MY 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY WHEN THE CAR TOOK OFF. THE CAR ACCELERATED SO FAST. I HIT THE BRAKES BUT IT DIDN'T STOP THE CAR. I MISSED A CAR AND A VAN, WENT UP OVER THE PARKING BLOCK AND HIT A POLE. THAT STOPPED ME! I HAD 2 PASSENGERS IN THE CAR. SOMEHOW NO ONE GOT HURT. I HAD 3 BLOWN TIRES AND THE RIGHT SIDE WINDOW BROKEN OUT WITH DAMAGE TO THAT DOOR. THE FRONT BUMPER WAS PULLED FROM THE BODY. THE CAR HAS DAMAGE TO THE TIE ROD AND WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. FRONT END ALIGNMENT WILL ALSO HAVE TO BE DONE. MY CAR HAD TO BE TOWED HOME. AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I BOUGHT IT FROM BUT IT'S BEEN OVER 10 DAYS AND SEVERAL PHONE CALLS WITH NO RESPONSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH 2011 CAMRY'S FROM THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ. WHEN WILL SOMETHING BE DONE ABOUT THIS, AFTER A DEATH? THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP.

ON APPROXIMATELY JULY 19, 2016, I WAS DRIVING WESTBOUND AT 60 MPH IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON I-85 DURING THE EARLY EVENING IN DURHAM, NC. THE SUN WAS LOW IN THE SKY AND I PULLED THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR DOWN TO SHIELD MY EYES FROM THE SUN'S GLARE. THE NEXT THING I KNEW WAS THAT THE SUN VISOR WAS IN MY HAND AND I WAS STRUGGLING TO SEE THE VEHICLE AHEAD OF ME SO THAT I WOULD NOT HIT IT. I WAS TOTALLY STARTLED NOT ONLY BY THE GLARE OF THE SUN AFTER THE VISOR FAILED, BUT ALSO BY THE FAILURE OF THE VISOR ITSELF. THE VISOR HAD COMPLETELY SEPARATED FROM ITS SUPPORT ARM. I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND ORDERED A REPLACEMENT SUN VISOR. WHILE THERE, A SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT TOYOTA HAD A RECALL AND EXTENDED WARRANTY ON SOME 2011 CAMRY SUN VISORS. HE OFFERED TO LOOK UP MY CAR TO SEE IF IT WAS ON THE LIST. IT WASN'T, BUT HE SAID THAT CARS ON THE LIST HAD VISORS THAT FAILED IN THE SAME WAY AS MINE HAD. EVEN THOUGH MY CAR WAS NOT ON THE LIST, THE SERVICE ADVISOR RECOMMENDED THAT I CONTACT TOYOTA, WHICH I DID. THE TOYOTA EXTENDED WARRANTY IS DESIGNATED "ZTT" AND AFFECTS MANY CAMRYS, INCLUDING SOME MANUFACTURED IN 2011, BUT BEFORE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. AN INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS PICTURES OF VISORS AMONG THE EXTENDED WARRANTY VEHICLES THAT FAILED IN EXACTLY THE SAME MANNER AS MINE HAD. YESTERDAY, I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THAT TOYOTA WOULD NOT PAY FOR A REPLACEMENT VISOR SO I 'M WRITING TO INFORM YOU OF THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION WHICH COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH, AS NEARLY HAPPENED TO ME.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR SNAPPED WHILE LIFTING FROM DOWN POSITION - CAR WAS STATIONARY - THEN IT WAS DANGLING IN FRONT OF WINDOW - COULDN'T SEE - HAD TO PULL IT OFF IN ORDER TO SEE ROADWAY - NOW HAVE NO WAY TO BLOCK THE SUN WHILE DRIVING.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR FLOPS DOWN. FAILS TO STAY IN SET POSITION . IN UP POSITION STARTS TO FALL DOWN. APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM IN THE 2007-2011 YEAR RANGE. CAN SUDDENLY OBSTRUCT FIELD OF VIEW.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING ON MY CAMRY 2011. TOYOTA HAS EXTENDED WARANTEE ON CAMRY 2011 AFFECTED VEHICLES TO 2017. IT REFSES TO PYA FOR MIME VECAUSE IT SAYS THE THIS VIN IS NOT COVERED. WHO WILL PAY FOR MY MELTING DASHBOARD.

THE SUN VISOR DROPPED AND DOES NOT HOLD. IT BLOCKED THE VISIBILITY AND SUDDENLY HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKE WHILE DRIVING IN HIGHWAY.

TAKATA RECALL- TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON THE 2007-2011 SUN VISORS FOR THE TOYOTA CAMRY HOWEVER, THEY ARE REFUSING TO PAY FOR MY SUN VISOR BECAUSE THEY SAY MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED. WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE SUN VISOR JUST FALL DOWN UNEXPECTED ON THE FWY AND ON THE MAIN STREETS WHICH IS A SAFETY HAZARD WHILE DRIVING. TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO REPLACE THE SUN VISOR KNOWING THAT THE 2011 HAVE A PROBLEM. TOYOTA HAS PLACE A RECALL ON THE SUN VISOR WHICH IS POSTED ON THEIR WEBSITE TOYOTA.COM

DASHBOARD MELTING WITH STICKY RESIDUE CAUSING HIGH REFLECTION ON TO WINDSHIELD DURING DAYTIME DRIVING THAT CAUSES AN UNBEARABLE GLARE.PLEASE ADVISE ON REPLACEMENT PROCEDURES UNDER THE WARRANTY EXTENSION.

DASH IS MELTING, CRACKING, AND SHINY CAUSING GLARE ON DASH AND REFLEX THAT GLARE IN WINDSHIELD CAUSING DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING.

DRIVER-SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. DISTRACTS DRIVING VIEW.

I AM WRITING ABOUT MY TOYOTA CAMRY 2011.I HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION THAT HAS FAILED NOW FOR THE THIRD TIME. I AM PRESENTLY DRIVING BUT YES IF IT FAILS AGAIN IT COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF IM CAUGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY AND IT FAILS AGAIN. I JUST WANTED YOU TO BE AWARE. ALSO SOMETHING TOTALLY UNRELATED IS I WOULD SUGGEST EVERY SEAT BELT IN ANY VEHICLE BE A FLUORESCENT ORANGE SO IT IS VERY OBVIOUS TO EVERYONE THAT YOU ARE NOT WEARING YOUR SEAT BELT. THIS WOULD HELP THE POLICE AND ANYONE ELSE IN AN ACCIDENT OR OTHERWISE. I AM JUST MAKING THE SUGGESTION HOPING SOMEONE WILL CHANGE THIS.

FIRST INCIDENT: JUNE 15, 2016 HEADING TO THE EXPRESSWAY ON MY WAY OUT OF TOWN, THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO SHAKE AND THE CAR STARTED TO BOUNCE. I PULLED INTO A REPAIR SHOP TO GET THE CAR INSPECTED. SECOND INCIDENT SEPTEMBER 22,2016 I WAS OUT OF TOWN, AND THE CAR STARTED TO REPEAT THE SAME AS IN JUNE. I PULLED INTO A TIRE SHOP, AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE STEEL BELT. AGAIN, I EXPLAINED TO THE GENTLEMAN THAT THIS WAS THE SECOND INCIDENT IN LESS THAN A YEAR OF PURCHASING THE CAR. HE ADVISED THAT THE TIRE WAS DEFECTIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER, OR THE CAR SET WITHOUT MOVEMENT, PRIOR TO SELLING AND THE WEATHER BEAT THE TIRES. HE PLACED THE TIRE IN THE TRUNK OF THE CAR AND ADVISED ME TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. IN BOTH INCIDENTS: TIRE HAD TO BE REPLACE BECAUSE OF THE BROKEN STEEL BELT INSIDE THE TIRE WALL.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 79,000.

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR HAS FAILED. TOYOTA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THEIR WARRANTY EXTENSION ZTT AND HAS REFUSED TO REPLACE IT FREE OF CHARGE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT WILL JUST DROP INTO THE FULLY EXTENDED POSITION OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW OF THE ROADWAY AND DISTRACTING ME AS A REACH TO MANIPULATE IT OUT OF MY VIEW. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR WONT STAY UP CANT SEE THE ROAD CLEARLY

MY DASHBOARD IS MELTING & CRACKING . IT IS STICKY TO THE TOUCH AND IT\'S FALLING APART THE GLARE FROM THE MELTING DASH IS ALSO AN ISSUE . I ALSO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE VANITY MIRROR IT IS BROKE AND WON\'T STAY UP . I HAD THE SAME EXACT ISSUES WITH MY 2007 CAMRY AND TOYOTA FIXED THE DASH BUT THEY TOLD ME TO GO BUY A NEW DASHBOARD AND PAY FOR IT MYSELF FOR MY 2011 THEY WILL NOT EXCEPT BLAME AND THEY WILL NOT HELP WITH THE ISSUES THEY PRETTY MUCH TOLD ME TOUGH LUCK . I AM VERY UPSET WITH THE CONDITION OF MY DASHBOARD AND I AM VERY UPSET AT TOYOTAS RESPONSE TO MY ISSUE .

THE DRIVER SIDE SUNVISOR WILL NOT STAY UP MAKING IT UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE AS IT INTERFERES WITH VISIBILITY. IT DOES NOT HELP BLOCK SUNLIGHT AS THE DRIVER CAN NOT ADJUST IT TO BLOCK INCOMING LIGHT.

IN APRIL 2016 I NOTICED A POOL OF OIL ON MY CAMRY DASHBOARD . THE DASHBOARD FELT VERY STICKY AND NOW IS CRACKING . IN ADDITION, THE SHINY OIL REFLECTS ON MY WINDSHIELD. THE REFLECTION IS DISTRACTING ESPECIALLY IN THE BRILLIANT SUNLIGHT AND AT NIGHT. CLEARLY THIS REFLECTION IS A DRIVING HAZARD AND MY DASHBOARD IS DISINTEGRATING UNFORTUNATELY MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CAMRY DASHBOARD RECALL I IMPLORE THAT TOYOTA DO THE RIGHT THING AND STAND BY THEIR PRODUCT . PHOTOS OF DASHBOARD WILL FOLLOW.

Cold start engine noise every time start up the car when it’s cold there’s a rattling noise then it goes away it’s only in when the engine is cold or in the morning on the cars it’s overnight but it’s been doing this ever since I bought the car the car new

CAR BOUGHT USED WITH 40,000MILES. I WAS DRIVING 65+ON 87N BY EXIT 2 THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT; CAR TOWED. THE VEHICLE FAILED;THE CLUTCH,FLYWHEEL,COMPRESSOR,BARRING & AXLE WERE ORIGINAL AND HAVE NOW BEEN REPLACED/REPAIRED.ABOUT 72,500 MILES ON THE CAR. HAS THIS HAPPENED TO OTHER TOYOTA CAMRY 2011 CARS?WE RETURNED HOME SAFE AND SOUND. BLESSED.

MY DRIVER SIDE SUNVISOR WILL NOT STAY UP THIS IS CAUSING ISSUES WITH BEING ABLE TO DRIVE SAFELY.

I WAS DRIVING ALONG ON A CITY STREET AT NIGHT AND SUDDENLY BOTH THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRAC OFF LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE LOST SPEED. I TRIED DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY, BUT THE SPEED COULD NOT EXCEED 25 MPH. SO, I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THE DIAGNOSTIC OBD-II CODE WAS P2128. AS A RESULT THEY REPLACED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THAT WAS DIAGNOSED AS OPEN CIRCUIT 552011. THE COST WAS COVERED BY MANUFACTURER WARRANTY. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, I WOULD NOT BE HERE NOW TO REPORT IT. ALSO, I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT TOYOTA HAD RESOLVED THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING, THE VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE NEAR THE ENGINE AREA. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

2011 CAMRY SUNVISOR BECAME LOOSE AND HUNG DOWN INTERFERING WITH MY VIEW. I TRIED DIFFERENT METHODS TO HOLD IT UP, BUT THEY DID NOT WORK. I REMOVED THE SUNVISOR SO IT WOULDN'T BLOCK MY VIEW, BUT SINCE AT SOME TIMES DURING THE YEAR I AM DRIVING INTO THE DIRECTION OF THE SUN, IT MAKES IT VERY HARD TO SEE WHAT IS IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. TOYOTA HAS PROVIDED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THIS DEFECT, BUT ONLY FOR CERTAIN VIN'S. THE VIN LIST IS VERY LIMITED, AND DOES NOT COVER MY VEHICLE (ALTHOUGH IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM). TOYOTA HAS CALLED THIS A WARRANTY PROBLEM (POL12-03) AND NOT A SAFETY RECALL, BUT IT IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ITEM.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A VERY BAD HEAD-ON COLLISION AND BOTH LEG AND STEERING WHEEL AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. MY CAR WAS HEADED SOUTHBOUND ON THE STREET AND THE SUV IN FRONT OF ME STOPPED SUDDENLY BECAUSE A SCHOOL BUS CUT HIM OFF. I WAS WEARING A SEAT-BELT. THE FORCE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYING WAS SO GREAT THAT IT KNOCKED ME UNCONSCIOUS. THE AIRBAG THAT DEPLOYED BY MY LEGS HAS LEFT ME WITH SOME OF THE WORST BRUISING I HAVE EVER SEEN AND SUBSTANTIAL PAIN. I HAVE ATTACHED IMAGES OF BOTH THE DEPLOYED AIRBAGS AND MY SUBSEQUENT INJURIES. THE ER DOCTORS, ORTHOPEDIC DOCTOR, NEUROLOGIST AND EMTS THOUGHT THAT THESE INJURIES WERE UNUSUAL AND NOT CONSISTENT WITH THE NORMAL RESULT OF AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

MY DAUGHTER AND A FRIEND WAS IN AN ACCIDENT IN OUR 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SE AND NEITHER OF THE FRONT AIR BAGS CAME OUT. A GIRL SLAMMED ON BRAKES IN FRONT OF THEM (IN THE RAIN) AND SHE RAN INTO THE BACK OF THE GIRL AT A SPEED OF AT LEAST 45 TO 50 MPH AND AND AIR BAGS DID NOT COME OUT AND HER AND HER FRIEND COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY HURT.

THE FRONT PASSENGER AND REAR PASSENGER DOORS THE OPENING ACTUATORS ARE MALFUNCTIONING. THEY WILL NOT UNLATCH WITH BEEPER OR DRIVERS CONTROL. THIS SIDE OF THE CAR HAS NO KEY ENTRY. IN CASE OF ACCIDENT OR ROLLOVER YOU WOULD HAVE TO BREAK THE GLASS TO GET PEOPLE OUT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SEAT BELT INDICATOR ILLUMINATED EVEN WHEN THE SEAT BELT WAS PROPERLY ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING; HOWEVER, THE DETAILS COULD NOT BE PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V014000 (AIR BAGS, SEATS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

THE BRAKES FAILED ON THIS CAR JANUARY 6, 2016, CAUSING ME TO COLLIDE WITH THE REAR END OF A TRUCK WHILE GOING ABOUT FIVE MILES PER HOUR. I WAS IN NORMAL TRAFFIC, ON A CITY STREET, COMING TO A SLOW STOP, AND AS I APPROACHED THE VEHICLE ABOUT 15 FEET IN FRONT OF ME, WAITING IN LINE FOR THE TURN LANE, I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE, WHICH WAS HARD AS A ROCK. HOWEVER, THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP; CONSEQUENTLY, I HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE. I WAS GOING SO SLOW THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS HURT, ALTHOUGH MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED ABOUT $1200 IN DAMAGE. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY EITHER THE ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR OR THE BRAKE PEDAL STROKE SENSOR. HOWEVER, THE CAR WAS SEEN BY A TOYOTA CORPORATION REPRESENTATIVE WHO STATED IN WRITING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THIS CAR HAS ALREADY BEEN REPAIRED UNDER A SERVICE CAMPAIGN FOR THE FLUID RESERVOIR FILTER. HOWEVER, THERE IS ALSO A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT PROGRAM (ZE-1), NUMBER POL14-04, FOR THE BRAKE ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY AND SKID CONTROL ECU/BRAKE PEDAL STROKE SENSOR. OUR VIN IS LISTED IN THE GROUP OF AFFECTED VEHICLES.

WHEN I TRAVEL AT THE SPEED OF 65+ MPH , STEERING WHEEL IS SHAKING VERY BADLY , WHEEL BALANCING DOES NOT FIX IT.

HI THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE DRIVER SIDE ARM REST WHICH IS CRACKED BECAUSE OF CHEAP PLASTIC AND IT FLEXING I THINK ITS DANGEROUS BECAUSE WHILE YOU DRIVING FOR LONG HOURS AND YOU NEED TO REST YOUR ARM ITS NOT RELAYABLE YOUR ARM DIPS IN THE HOLE INSTEAD OF COMFORT I HOPE IT EXPLAINS RITE

CAR EXCELLERATED OUT OF CONTROL,CAUSING DAMAGE TO AN APARTMENT AN TOTALING THE CAR OUT.

SUN VISOR UNEXPECTEDLY SAGGED DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, AND NOW PERMANENTLY IN THE DROPPED DOWN POSITION. QUITE A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE WHEN 1/2 OF YOUR VISIBILITY SUDDENLY GETS BLOCKED, AND THIS ISSUE SEEMS QUITE COMMONLY REPORTED IN ONLINE FORUM COMPLAINTS.

SUN VISOR NOT STAYING ON DESIRE POSITION, KEEP FALLING - HARD TO DRIVE CAR, NO SAFE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE PARKING THE VEHICLE, IT ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR ROTATES DOWNWARD FROM THE STORED POSITION & SUDDENLY BLOCKS THE VIEW OF DRIVER WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE.

SUN VISOR WILL SPONTANEOUSLY FALL DOWN BLOCKING VISIBILITY. THE LOCKING MECHANISM THAT ALLOWS THE VISOR TO STAY IN ONE PLACE IS DEFECTIVE AND IT IS UNABLE TO HOLD THE VISOR IN THE UP POSITION. THIS ALSO CREATES A HAZARD GETTING INTO THE CAR, AS A TALLER INDIVIDUAL INEVITABLY WILL SLAM HIS HEAD ON THE VISOR AS IT IS ALWAYS STUCK IN THE DOWN POSITION. THIS HAPPENS BOTH WHILE STATIONARY AND ESPECIALLY WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE BACKING UP IN A PARKING AREA, THE GEAR WAS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT APPLIED FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, WHICH DID NOT SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO A TREE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A REPAIR SHOP AND THE CONTACT AND TWO PASSENGERS WERE NOT INJURED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INDICATED THAT THE CONTACT WOULD RECEIVE A RESPONSE WITHIN A MONTH. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,350. UPDATED 1/21/16 *SS; 04/19/18*JB *CN
