The contact owns a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the Hybrid system warning light illuminated, prompting the contact to discontinue driving the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the Hybrid Propulsion System battery. The contact was informed that the Hybrid battery showed signs of arcing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 123,000.
Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact discovered a mileage discrepancy after the purchase. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 90,000. It was later discovered that the mileage on the Title was 200,000.
Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while attempting to register the vehicle, it was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy.

The radio buttons as well as buttons on steering wheel are unresponsive. In addition the front bumper corner piece near the wheel keeps popping off of the car.
The contact owns a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated while parked and starting the vehicle, the air conditioner unit failed to function. The vehicle was driven to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the air conditioner compressor failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 70,000.
The AC Compressor failed right before the average life of the average AC Compressor. And if you look at Toyota Camry from 2012 thru 2013, there were recalls on AC Compressors, so I find it hard to believe it is a coincidence that the 2014 AC Compressor failure shouldn't also have a recall just like 2012 and 2013. It sounds to me like Toyota is not being honest here.
There is a transmission shudder when traveling around 30-40 MPH as well as sporadically when increasing speed. Recently, there is a very hard shift/jolt when transmission is shifting from 2nd to 3rd. The issue is caused by a combination of a faulty torque converter and a software glitch in the engine control module (ECM). This is a safety hazard, and I contacted Toyota North America who told me that they can't do anything. However, to fix the problem that Toyota issued the recall themselves, Toyota dealers need to replace to the torque converter and update the ECM software. I am reaching out to the NHTSA because this is a safety hazard, and I hope you are able to help me.
When accelerating from a stop the vehicle will sometimes move about 10 feet and then hesitate for about 1 to 2 seconds. It will then accelerate normally. One time the vehicle accelerated to about 20 mph and then the engine rpm returned to idle. The accelerator was pushed to the floor and the rpm remained at idle. The accelerator was released and pushed down again. The vehicle accelerated normally. This happened only one time. The intermittent hesitation is very dangerous when trying to cross a busy intersection when the cross traffic is uncontrolled. The vehicle was taken to the dealership for the problem. The technician could not duplicate the condition. The U760E torque converter shudder recall upgrade was performed. This did not fix the problem. The service advisor said that the technician said that some transmission hesitation was normal. The service advisor also said there had been other complaints about this condition. This condition is dangerous and not normal.
My vehicle’s radio buttons/screen no longer function along with the buttons on my steering wheel. This creates a problem as I use the hand free option on many occasions. It’s come to my attention I am not the only person this has happened to.
On random occasions, key in the ignition won't turn at all, regardless of stepping on the brake and moving the steering wheel at the same time. Sometimes, I was able to turn the key after trying again in 5 minutes. Once, it worked after 25 minutes of trying. Not a consistent issue, but I never know when and where it may happen again. Not sure if it is "available for inspection upon request". Don't believe that the car has been inspected by a service center or anyone else yet. While my safety was not put in jeopardy at those specific moments, it could be a safety issue in the future, because I may have to drive someone to a medical facility or I may need to leave an environment that has become unsafe, and I would be stranded for however long, if the ignition abruptly gets locked.

2014 TOYOTA CAMRY. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE BEING HACKED AND HACKERS GAINING CONTROL OVER STEREO SYSTEM. *LD *JS
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.
CAR IN MOTION ON CURVE IN CITY STREET. PUSHED REAR WINDOW DEFROST BUTTON. RADIO WENT OFF. HEADLIGHTS WENT OFF. STEERING VERY HARD TO USE. ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) DASH INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. WITHIN 2 SECONDS ALL RETURNED TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURRED TWO TIMES.
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.
STEERING SYSTEM WARNING SHOWING AND HAVE NO POWER, HARD TIME TO RESTART THE ENGINE.
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.
TOUCH SCREEN CONTROLS ARE BECOMING NON RESPONSIVE STARTING AT LOWER RIGHT HAND CORNER. GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS THIS IS VERY, VERY COMMON IN 2014 AND 2015 TOYOTAS. CAN' T PAIR PHONE WITH BLUETOOTH ANYMORE, SINCE "ADD" BUTTON IS IN LOWER RIGHT CORNER OF SCREEN. ALSO VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING, WHEN BUTTONS NEVER OR INTERMITTENTLY RESPOND! CONTACTED TOYOTA DEALERS AND TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS. ONE DEALER ADMITTED BEING AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT ALL SAY TOYOTA HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL OR WARRANTY EXTENSION! SAFETY ISSUE WITH DRIVER DISTRACTION!!!!
