2007 TOYOTA CAMRY Fuelpropulsion System Problems

Contacted TMC and was told a recall WAS performed on my car in 2010 for excessive acceleration. However, after further investigation, I learned there was not ONE but TWO different recalls for SIMILAR circumstances(acceleration) and was not informed whether BOTH were completed. I have had vehicle for approx. 5 years and have intermittently experienced the SAME problem. The last few weeks, it has happened more frequently and is becoming dangerous to drive! Also, I was told, since the ONE recall was completed, TMC declined to address the recent problem. Is there a possibility the FIRST recall was not COMPLETELY SUFFICIENT for both. I hope I can get an answer, as I have run out of options. I don't believe I should have to PAY for something that was supposedly FIXED even 10 years ago! I would, again appreciate any help. Thank you.

ALL OF A SUDDEN, ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON INCLUDING: BRAKE LIGHT, CHECK VCS SYSTEM, ABS, ALL OF THE EXCLAMATION LIGHTS, ETC.. IVE BEEN VERY DILIGENT ABOUT THE MAINTENACE ON Y VEHICLE AND HAD THE CODES READ AND RESET, BUT THEY KEEP COMING BACK ON. THE MAJOR ISSUES ARE THE ABS, CATALYTIC CONVERTER EROR CODE & THE ABS MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO BREAK. IVE HAD IT LOOKED AT AND THE MECHANICS ARE SAYING THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. ALSO, THE MIRROR VISOR ON DRIVER SIDE STOPPED WORKING & CONSTANTLY FALLS DOWN BLOCKING MY VIEW. ITS VERY DANGEROUS! PLEASE ADVISE TOYOTA OF THESE ISSUES. IVE ALREADY HAD THE HYBRID BATTERY COMPLETELY REPLACED AND BREAKS & ROUTERS, BUT THE CODES SHOWING ARE: •P0420 and •P1423, •C1391, - Ask about a recall •B1241, •B2784, •B2281, •C2124 THANK YOU SO MUCH!

On July 11, 2021, my husband and I were driving to a location not far from our house, on a state road with a 45 mph speed limit, when "Check Hybrid System" and "Check VSC System" warnings began alternately appearing and I lost acceleration. I turned on my hazard lights and was eventually able to pull off on the side of the road. I turned off all power then restarted, at which point the engine resumed working and we were able to continue driving, but the "Check Hybrid System" and engine light warnings remained on. We were able to reset the computer system by disconnecting the negative terminal of the auxiliary battery (which had been replaced a few months ago) for ten minutes, but I travel over 700 miles at least monthly to take care of my elderly blind father, and I don't want this to happen while I'm driving...

THE CAMRY STARTED REVVING UP TO 1500 RPM AT STOP LIGHTS OR WHEN PULLING INTO PARKING SPOTS ALMOST CAUSING ACCIDENTS, LOCAL DEALER COULD NOT FIND ISSUE AFTER HAVING CAR FOR A MONTH. THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR SAVED CODES, I JUST NOTICE THE ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE DROP WHILE ITS DOING IT SO ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT HAPPENS EVERY OTHER DAY USUALLY WHEN WARM OUT. I AM TOO SCARED TO HAVE MY WIFE DRIVE THE VEHICLE ANYMORE AND CANNOT JUSTIFY SELLING. HOPEFULLY TOYOTA WILL HELP FIGURE THIS OUT. DEALER REPLACED FUEL PUMP BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. ALSO HAS HARD STARTING ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK, WILL ALWAYS START ON THE THIRD TRY IF NOT IMMEDIATELY.

ONGOING ISSUE THE CAR BURNS OIL LIKE CRAZY. I HAVE TO ADD OIL BEFORE MY NEXT OIL CHANGE IS SCHEDULED (EVERY 3000 MILES). THERE IS BLACK SOOT BUILDUP IN THE GAS TANK DOOR AROUND THE CAP. IT HAS BEEN LIKE THIS AWHILE, JUST NEVER THOUGHT ANYTHING OF IT UNTIL I MET A FELLOW CAMRY OWNER WHO'S 2009 CAMRY WAS RECALLED FOR THE EXACT SAME ISSUE BUT MINE DOES NOT HAVE THE RECALL. THE BLACK SOOT HAS BEEN THERE BASICALLY FROM THE VERY BEGINNING (2007), IT STARTED NOTICEABLY BURNING OIL AT ABOUT 130000 MILES, THE CAR IS NOW AT ABOUT 163000

TAKATA RECALL IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THE RECALL WHEN I SAW RECALL FOR THE YEAR AND MODEL AND MAKE I WAS LIKE FINALLY BUT COME TO FIND OUT THE VIN NUMBER WASN'T RECALLED BUT NEEDS TO BE. GOES OFF AND HAVE TO PULL OVER TO TURN BACK ON

MY TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY IS LEAKING EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, THERE WAS A RECALL , BUT I DID NOT GET NOTIFICATION OF THIS PROBLEM ,UNTIL I WAS ONLINE SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS TO FIND OUT WHY MY CAR, WAS REQUIRING SO MUCH OIL, I SAW A ARTICLE WHICH STATED THAT THIS WAS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT, I NOTIFIED TOYOTA ABOUT THIS, THEY DENIED MY CLAIM. I EVEN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR MAR JACOBS IN DURHAM N.C. MAR JACOBS STATED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO EXCEPT TRY TO GE ME TO BUY A NEW CAR, NO THANKS , I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED, BECAUSE THIS AFFECTS MY ENGINE AND IF WANT TO SALE MY CAR THE VALUE GOES DOWN, BECAUSE OF THIS MANUFACTURE DEFECT. I AM CONSTANTLY BUYING OIL FOR MY CAR EVERY WEEK , WHICH ADDS UP IN PRICE. I WOULD LIKE OR TOYOTA HONOR...

AIR COMPRESSOR NO GOOD HAD IT REPLACED AT THE DEALER BUT NOT WORKING, REPLACED ENGINE DUE TO OVER USE OF OIL DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS NORMAL USE

TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE 4 THE UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION OF THESE VEHICLES. MAKE THEM TEST IT UNDER 32 DEGREES AND THE RPMS WILL ALMOST ALWAYS INCREASE AND DECREASE ABRUPTLY THOUGH GIVING GAS AT A STEADY PACE. IT'S HAPPENED EVERY YEAR EVERY WINTER SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. THE PEDAL FIX/RECALL WAS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO THOSE OF US WHO SUSPECT IT IS AN ENGINE OR ELECTRICAL ISSUE. IT MUST BE TESTED IN COLD COLD WEATHER AND UPON THE CAR JUST STARTING TO RUN. IT DOES SEEM TO SUBSIDE AS THE ENGINE WARMS BUT ON THE NEXT COLD DAY THE CAR TRIES TO ACCELERATE ITSELF AGAIN

THE EXCELERATOR PEDEL HAS A SLIGHT PLAY IN IT WHEN YOU FIRST STEP DOWN ON THE PEDEL.

I HAVE AN EXCESSIVE ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM SO ON MARCH 2016, I GO TO THE DEALER TO CHECK AND SAID THAT MY CAR PASS THE TEST WITHOUT ANY SUGGESTION TO FOLLOW ON, I STILL HAS THIS PROBLEM AND EVEN MORE SERIOUS SO I GO BACK TO CHECK THEN THE DEALER SAID ONCE PASS IS NOT THEIR ISSUE ,I WONDER WHAT IS THE STANDARD THE PASS OR NOT PASS AND I CALL THE MAIN TOYOTA OFFICE TO ASK FOR HELP AND THEY SAID ,I CAN ASK FOR THE SECOND TEST BUT I JUST PASS THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT IS JUST PASS HALF A MONTH AGO. MY QUESTION IS I KNOW MY CAR HAS THE PROBLEM BUT I HAS NO SUGGESTION WHAT TO DO AND THEY KEEP DELAY THE CARE OF MY CAR UNTIL THE WARRANTY IS GONE . ACTUALLY MY FIRST APPROACH THIS PROBLEM IS STILL UNDER THE WARRANTY PERIOD...

THE CAR USING 1QT OF OIL EVERY 300 MILES , TOYOTA RAN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST , TOLD ME NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR , THE CAR STILL USING THE SAME AMOUNT OF OIL .

RECENTLY THE "ABS" AND "BRAKE" LIGHT CAME UP; NOW THESE LIGHT COME UP AND STAY ON FOR SOME TIME- SIMULTANEOUSLY; THE NEEDLES OF THE MPH, RPM, H/C, AND GAS GAUGE DROPS- THE PRM NEEDLES FLICKER UP AND DOWN. ALSO, THE TEMPERATURE MARKER DOESN'T WORK. THE MPH HITS DOWN TO '0' WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD AT NORMAL SPEED. BUT I DON'T KNOW MY SPEED. MY AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I ALSO NOTICE THAT IT DOESN'T TRACK THE "TRIP' MILES WHEN IT IS OUT OF CONTROL (ALTHOUGH I HAVEN'T NOTICED IF IT FAILS TO TRACK THE MILEAGE ON THE ODOMETER. THEN THIS 'PROBLEM' STOPS AND THE CAR GOES BACK TO "NORMAL." A FEW MINUTES LATER, THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM CAN LAST FOR 5 MINUTES TO 20 MINUTES. I CALLED TOYOTA SERVICE'S 800 NUMBER AFTER SEARCHING THE WEB AND READING SIMILAR PROBLEMS BEING DOCUMENTED. HERE...

I OWN A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY SE AND FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH MY CAR NOT STARTING IF IT IS ON UNLEVEL GROUND. I ASSUMED IT WAS SOMETHING IN THE GAS I HAD RECENTLY PURCHASED BUT THAT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE THE CASE. IF MY CAR IS PARKED ON UNLEVEL GROUND, I NOW HAVE TO PLACE THE GEAR IN NEUTRAL AND PUSH THE CAR TO A LEVEL GROUND IN ORDER FOR IT TO START. I RECENTLY HAD IT CHECKED OUT BY A MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT IT HAD TO BE A SENSOR IN THE FUEL PUMP CAUSING MY CAR TO RESPOND IN ONE OF TWO WAYS: 1) THERE WAS NO GAS IN THE TANK OR 2) THE ANTITHEFT SENSOR WAS ON AND THE CAR DOESN'T START IF THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN STOLEN. I HAD A FULL TANK AT THE TIME SO...

- 2007 CAMRY HAS BEEN CONSUMING UNREAL AMOUNT OF ENGINE OIL. - I TOOK IT TO THE DELEARSHIP; AND THEY MENTIONED REPLACEMENT OF PISTONS WILL BE COVERED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY BUT IF THE ENGINE IS DAMAGED THEY WILL NOT COVER IT. AT THIS POINT, I AM NOT EVEN SURE THE PISTON IS NOT WORKING AS IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. - THE CAR WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW AND THE DEFECT ON ENGINE WAS BROUGHT TO OUR ATTENTION ONLY A MONTH AGO IN 2015. *TR

I WAS DRIVING THE CAMRY WHEN I REACHED A COMPLETE STOP MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, DIDN'T REALLY NOTICE ANY CHANGE, TWO DAYS LATER I NOTICE GAS CONSUMPTION HAS INCREASED. I TOOK THE CAMRY INTO DEALER, DEALER DIAGNOSED THE CHECK ENGINE TO BE A FAULTY O2 SENSOR. REPLACED O2 SENSOR AND DROVE OFF TO PICK UP MY KIDS FROM SCHOOL, AS WE ARE DRIVING HOME, I CAME TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT, I STOPPED AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON IDLE WAS DISRUPTED BRIEFLY. I PROCEEDED AND WHEN TRYING TO STOP CAR THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD BECOME VERY TIGHT TO WERE I HAD TO STOMP ON BRAKES WITH ALL MY MIGHT TO GET CAR TO STOP. DROP KIDS OFF AT HOME WAITED 15 MINUTES AND STARTED VEHICLE, ABS LIGHT WAS OFF BUT CHECK ENGINE REMAINED ON, BRAKE PEDAL WAS ALMOST BACK TO NORMAL. I DROVE CAR TO...

VEHICLE LEAKS OR BURNS OIL IN EXCESS FROM UNKNOWN LOCATION OR UNDISCLOSED LOCATION BY MANUFACTURER. NO OIL VISIBLE ON GROUND UNDERNEATH CAR . ENGINE WAS NOT GETTING ADEQUATE LUBRICATION DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND THUS CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER ABLE TO ACCELERATE ON FREEWAY AND HAD TO BE PULLED OVER PUTTING VEHICLE OWNER AT RISK AND OTHER DRIVERS ON ROAD IN DANGER. THE ENGINE IS NOW DAMAGED AND IS UNABLE TO BE REPAIRED DESPITE PROPER MAINTENANCE AND RECOMMENDED OIL CHANGES AS PER DEALERSHIP AND OWNERS MANUAL. THE ENGINE NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. THIS LEAKAGE HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OVER HUNDREDS OF UNSATISFIED CUSTOMERS AND HAS PURPOSELY BEEN DISREGARDED BY MANUFACTURER DESPITE THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS RECEIVED AND MADE BY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY OWNERS. MANY OF WHICH SUFFERED LIKE THIS OWNER AND HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A NEW ENGINE DESPITE THIS BEING A MANUFACTURER DEFECT...

I WAS PARKING MY CAR AND WHEN I WENT TO STOP CAR AND TURN IT OFF, I EXPERIENCED UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION. CAR JUMPED THE CURB AND CRASHED INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER OF THE PARKING GARAGE. *TR

NOTICED MY CAR HAD A KNOCKING SOUND TOOK IT IN TO MY MECHANIC TO SEE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. I'M VERY PARTICULAR ABOUT MY CAR. THE MECHANIC CALLED TO INFORM ME THE OIL LEVELS WERE EXTREMELY LOW, WHILE HE NOTICED IT WAS CLOSE TO NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE BUT THE LEVELS SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THAT LOW. HIS OBSERVATION WAS MY CAR IS BURNING OIL TOO FAST. HE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO QUESTION IF THERE WAS AN RECALL OF SUCH AND THE ASSOCIATE AT THE DEALERSHIP MENTIONED A SILENT RECALL OF THIS MATTER. HE THEN INFORMED ME TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP, IN WHICH WE DID AND WAS INFORMED DUE TO THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED I COULD PAY $5000+ TO REBUILD MY MOTOR OR GET MY OIL CHANGED EVER 3000 MILES INSTEAD OF 5000 MILES. THIS I THOUGHT WAS A PROBLEM CAUSE WHEN I PURCHASED MY NEW 2007...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL TANK HEAT SHIELD BECAME SEPARATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, WHO DETERMINED THAT THE HEAT SHIELD METAL FAILED DUE TO ELECTRICAL CHARGE AND CORROSION. THE FUEL HEAT SHIELD WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 38,345.

ON NOV. 23 2012 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 61 IN WINONA, MN "ALL OF A SUDDEN" MY CAR SPEED WAS DROPPING FROM 65 MPH TO 15 MPH IN A MATTER OF SECOND AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE FIGHT FOR MY LIFE TO GET OUT TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WHEN THE CAR STOP I CHECK THE ENGINE RUN FINE, BUT WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL NOTHING HAPPEN. I PUT THE CAR INTO DRIVE GEAR AND IT ONLY GO AS FAST 10 TO 15 MPH. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE THAT I SEE THIS THING, I WOULD LIKE TO "WARN" ALL CAMRY DRIVERS BECAREFUL YOU MAY NOT HAVE THE LUCK I HAVE. I MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. *TR
