AFTER HAVING MY CAR FOR ALMOST A YEAR IN SOUTH CAROLINA, I NOTICED THAT THE FRONT BUMPER GRILL WHERE THE EMBLEM IS LOCATED IS BUBBLING SIGNIFICANTLY. THE "CHROME" LOOKING PLASTIC ISN'T HOLDING UP TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR ON THE CAMRY. I WASH MY VEHICLE TWICE A MONTH, SO NOT TAKING CARE OF THE VEHICLE IS NOT THE ISSUE BY ANY MEANS. I TOLD THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, AND THEY STATED THAT THIS WAS NO LONGER ON MY COVERAGE FOR WARRANTY. I DO NOT FEEL A BRAND NEW CAR SHOULD HAVE COSMETIC ISSUES LIKE THIS AFTER A YEAR OF OWNING THE VEHICLE FROM DRIVING IT OFF THE LOT BRAND NEW. FOR ABOUT 8 MONTHS OF ITS 16 MONTH LIFE SPAN THE CAR WAS GARAGE KEPT. MY WIFE IS CURRENTLY DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND DOES NOT TAKE IT FOR A DRIVE THAT OFTEN.

Potential Consequences:
I BOUGHT A NEW 2017 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE IN APRIL 2017 AND SOON THEREAFTER STARTED NOTICING SOME UNUSUAL, UNINTENDED ACCELERATION AND JERKING DURING SLOWING DOWN/DECELERATION. THE CAR JERKS AND TRIES TO MAINTAIN SPEED AGAINST THE DRIVER'S INTENTION TO SLOW DOWN GRADUALLY AND/OR STOP, SPECIFICALLY NOTICEABLE AT 20 AND 30 MPH SPEEDS. DURING SLOW DOWN, SEEMS LIKE CAR SWITCHES GEAR ABNORMALLY TO MAINTAIN SPEED WHEN IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE SLOWING DOWN GRADUALLY. IT TRIES TO MAINTAIN SPEED FOR AN UNUSUALLY LONG TIME INSTEAD OF SMOOTHLY SLOWING DOWN WITH NO FOOT ON ACCELERATOR PEDAL, CAUSING TOO MUCH USE OF BRAKE OVER AND OVER TO SLOW IT DOWN AND AVOID COLLISION WITH CAR IN FRONT OF YOU, SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I AM CONTACTING YOU AFTER EXHAUSTING ALL MY EFFORTS TO CONVINCE DEALER AND THE TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICE TO HAVE THEM TAKE THIS 'UNINTENDED ACCELERATION' SAFETY CONCERN SERIOUSLY AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I AM SURE LOTS OF 2017 CAMRY OWNERS ARE SUFFERING AND FRUSTRATED WITH THE SAME ISSUE, BUT CANNOT GET ANYWHERE WITH DEALER TECH SERVICES OR TOYOTA.

IT TRIES TO MAINTAIN SPEED FOR AN UNUSUALLY LONG TIME INSTEAD OF SMOOTHLY SLOWING DOWN WITH NO FOOT ON ACCELERATOR PEDAL, CAUSING TOO MUCH USE OF BRAKE OVER AND OVER TO SLOW IT DOWN AND AVOID COLLISION WITH CAR IN FRONT OF YOU, SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I AM CONTACTING YOU AFTER EXHAUSTING ALL MY EFFORTS TO CONVINCE DEALER AND THE TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICE TO HAVE THEM TAKE THIS 'UNINTENDED ACCELERATION' SAFETY CONCERN SERIOUSLY AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I AM SURE LOTS OF 2017 CAMRY OWNERS ARE SUFFERING AND FRUSTRATED WITH THE SAME ISSUE, BUT CANNOT GET ANYWHERE WITH DEALER TECH SERVICES OR TOYOTA.

Defect Description:
SUSPENSION
Potential Consequences:
WHILE TRAVELING OVER A SPEED BUMP, DRIVEWAY ENTRY, OR RAILROAD CROSSING, A LOUD MECHANICAL CLUNKING SOUND OCCASIONALLY COMES FROM THE CAR. THE CLUNKING SOUND IS DEFINITELY FROM THE FRONT, AND APPEARS TO BE FROM THE RIGHT FRONT SUSPENSION. THE SOUND OCCURS WHEN THE CAR COMES DOWN TO ITS LOWEST POINT OF SUSPENSION TRAVEL. THIS CLUNKING SOUND OCCURS MOST FREQUENTLY OVER SPEED BUMPS, AND OCCASIONALLY AT DRIVEWAY ENTRIES, AND RAILROAD CROSSINGS. THE CLUNKING SOUND HAS OCCURRED WITH THE BRAKES ON AND OFF. THE SOUND HAS MOST FREQUENTLY OCCURRED AT SLOW SPEEDS AND OCCASIONALLY OCCURRED AT NORMAL STREET SPEEDS. THE CLUNKING SOUND HAS OCCURRED WHILE THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED AND WHILE IT IS STRAIGHT. THE CAR IS ONE YEAR OLD, AND THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED BETWEEN 8K-9K MILES. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY ACCIDENT, OR ANY CONDITION THAT WOULD DAMAGE THE SUSPENSION, AND THE SUSPENSION HAS NOT BEEN SERVICED. THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN INSPECTED FOR THE ISSUE YET. THE CAR WILL BE INSPECTED AT THE NEXT SCHEDULED SERVICE OF 15K MILES. THE ISSUE HAS NOT YET BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT. THE ISSUE CANNOT BE EXACTLY REPLICATED DURING A TEXT DRIVE, BUT IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY AND OFTEN ENOUGH TO BE A NUISANCE.
