FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
On hot days, fuel vapor escapes from the gas tank's filler pipe and condenses and pools inside the fuel access door. The area around the car smells of gas. Sometimes it runs down the side of the car and drips on the ground. This has ruined the paint. We can't put the car in the garage because of the smell, and we are concerned that in an accident there could be a fire. We don't know what part has failed. Toyota installed an upgraded gas cap, but leak is still happening. The safety risks are breathing of gas fumes in and around the car, and the increased risk of fire in an accident. We kept a detailed log of the conditions under which this happens, and shared the log and also video recordings with Freeman Toyota near us in Santa Rosa California. We left the car with them for two hot days (XXX 2024) and they were able to reproduce the problem. The leakage is noticeable only in hot weather, so we first observed the problem in the summer of 2020. Below I have entered the most recent date when we observed the problem (with the upgraded gas cap): [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
Potential Consequences:
The contact owns a 2018 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at approximately 35 MPH going down a steep decline, the brake pedal was depressed and travelled to the floorboard, causing the vehicle to reach speeds up to 82 MPH. The contact was unaware of any warning lights being illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle coasted to a stop once the road leveled out. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was not diagnosed as the contact researched online and found a recall. The vehicle was then towed to a Toyota dealer where the VIN was confirmed to be included in NHTSA Campaign Number: 21V890000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The vehicle was repaired under the recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The contact was upset that he was not notified of the recall and was unsure if the vehicle was currently safe to be driven. The approximate failure mileage was 149,000. The VIN was not available.

Potential Consequences:
Upon leaving my home the “check engine” light turned on suddenly after only less than 2 minutes of driving . The “ICS malfunction” light also turned on. The car pulled and stalled when pushing the gas and velocity stalled. Engine light turned said something similar to “engine overheating park in a safe place” . Not sure exact words. I was able drive less then one mile to get the car to Toyota Penske of Downey. I had the diagnostic done and the service provider stated the car needed an electrician water pump replacement. My car has very little mileage and was not running for long for it to over heat.
