SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I am the owner of a 2018 Toyota Camry purchased 08/31/2018. Toyota recalled 2018 Camry models built between 01/16/2017 and 09/13/2018 for a brake problem (internal campaign reference code JOK/JLD). My vehicle falls within this period but seems to not be included in the recall. I am writing to you because I have had at least six occasions where when parking the car and going very slowly the vehicle doesn't seem to want to stop. Recently, I could not stop the vehicle and it was stopped by a cement barrier and bush. I have been told in the past by the dealer (Morristown Toyota) that there is no problem. Is it possible that my vehicle should have been included in the recall but was accidentally omitted.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
I was driving my 2018 Toyota Camry SE and the brakes went out on me. I managed to keep pumping the brake and slowly apply the emergency brake to bring the vehicle to a stop. After a look by a mechanic, it turned out that the problem was with the brake vacuum pump. The internal parts were completely destroyed. I had to go to a Toyota dealership (Longo Toyota of Prosper) to get a replacement part. I purchased the part for $691.85 and had somebody install it for me. I later found out that NHTSA had issued a recall on this EXACT part for my vehicle after the incident and TOYOTA failed to inform me of this issue. To follow up with the recall, I took the vehicle to Toyota, and they did NOTHING to the vehicle and just checked it off from their recall list. The reason I am filing a complaint is because TOYOTA is refusing to reimburse me for the part that was part of a recall. I filed 2 claims in which I provided them with the receipt and bank statements showing that I purchased the part from a TOYOTA dealership. Now, they are claiming that the reason they denied my claim is because I did not provide them with a written letter stating HOW the repair was done, even though a Toyota dealership took a look at the part as part of the recall process and told me that everything looked good. I got the person that worked on the vehicle to write a lengthy letter stating precisely how he did the work. I am trying to file another reimbursement claim request, but now their Reimbursement page is down and has been down for at least a week now. I have attempted to try to submit the claim through my laptop, phone, and my iPad and all are giving me the same error message. It is absurd that Toyota almost got me killed and now is refusing to even reimburse me for something they had to cover to begin with. I will provide you will all the documents that I've been trying to submit to Toyota. At this point, I don't know how to get them to acknowlege this issue.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Check engine light came on one day. Ignored it. The next morning was driving on the highway and noticed the car had some trouble accelerating, tried to switch lanes at ~40-60mph (don’t remember) and the car started to kick back and almost felt like it was coming to a complete stop. I was so scared the car would just stop in the middle of the highway because i couldn’t even change lanes without it kicking back/not accelerating enough. There was not a lot of traffic around so i was lucky enough to get the car into the far right lane and coast. An alert came on, almost immediately after, on the dash and was told to pull over due to the engine overheating. Looked at the heat gauge and noticed it was all the way to HOT. Got off the highway and tried to take local roads back home, the car started to kick back almost like it was about to come to a complete stop but was able to keep going local roads, didn’t pull over (was close enough to home that I didn’t want to leave my car on the side of the road if it didn’t start back up again) and the engine eventually cooled down. Got back home to put in more coolant (there was ZERO coolant, never noticed a leak) Car ran fine for about a week, then check engine light came back on. Took it to autozone for a scan, code came out as P26CB. Took it to Toyota for diagnostic and repair, the code they found was P26CB71. Was told by the service advisor that the car should’ve turned off automatically and I shouldn’t have been able to drive it so far with the engine over heating like that. Also was told that the engine was very close to “blowing up”.
Corrective Action:
Check engine light came on one day. Ignored it. The next morning was driving on the highway and noticed the car had some trouble accelerating, tried to switch lanes at ~40-60mph (don’t remember) and the car started to kick back and almost felt like it was coming to a complete stop.

Potential Consequences:
I am writing to express a serious safety concern regarding my Toyota Camry. Recently, my daugther experienced a potentially dangerous situation while driving to a doctor’s appointment that I believe requires immediate attention. She was traveling on the highway in the leftmost lane, the fastest lane, when the car unexpectedly began to slow down. Despite pressing the gas pedal to accelerate, the engine revved louder, but the car did not respond or gain any speed. It became clear that the vehicle was losing power, and she was unable to maintain speed, causing a significant slowdown in traffic. As the situation became more alarming, she turned on the emergency lights to alert surrounding drivers, realizing that the car was decelerating despite her efforts. At this point, she was stuck in a very precarious position, with traffic merging from another highway to her right, and she remained in the middle of the road in one of the busiest and fastest lanes. Fortunately, after 15 minutes or so of this uncertainty, a kind passenger helped to push the car to the shoulder, allowing her to get out of the flow of traffic and avoid a potential accident or worse. What is most concerning about this incident is that there were no warning signs or indicators on the dashboard. No engine lights, warning signals, or unusual noises alerted her to any potential issue before or during the power loss. The car simply stopped responding while the engine continued to rev, leaving her stranded in a highly dangerous situation without any forewarning. I rely on my Toyota Camry for daily transportation, and this sudden and unexpected malfunction has shaken both our confidences and others around me about the vehicle’s safety. I request a thorough investigation into this incident to determine the cause of the malfunction, as well as any necessary repairs or inspections to ensure that this does not happen again. Toyota dealer has advised me there is no recall and there is nothing they can do.
