2018 TOYOTA CAMRY Forward Collision Avoidance Warnings Problems

I was leaving a doctor's office and getting on the highway. When I pressed down on the accelerator, I experienced a sudden loss of power, the check engine light came on, as well as warnings about the front collision system being deactivated. It remained dangerous for me to stay on the highway but it was also difficult to exit the highway safely given the loss of power. When I brought it to a Toyota dealership, they did a diagnostic and it said my transmission had an "internal failure" despite the fact that it only has 85k miles on it.

Front rear camera has failed. multiple codes pop up including headlight system malfunction, LDA malfunction, Pre-collision malfunction. Codes pop up after clearing cant see digital speedometer. Confirmed by dealer camera needs replaced. Costs are over 2,000 USD.

Pre-Collision system malfunction, secondary collision system malfunction along with check engine. It appears to be a trend with 2018 Toyota Camry XSE and higher model. I found that many people that own this model vehicle is experiencing the same issue even after going to a Toyota dealer and the issue still persist.

Only when it rains the forward collision warning light comes on. The last time it came on the engine light also came on with code P01280. Diagnostic at Toyota said the Thermostat needs to be replaced. I decided to look into this as the thermostat should not be bad at 54500 miles. Weeks later and the neither light has come on again.

My Camry has received two professional transmission services as per the manufacturer recommendation, within suggested timeframes as it is now 176k. The transmission ( surely this is not something new to hear) Has FAILED. No prior sign or code. THIS VEHICLE DIED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY! It stopped automatically shifting and would not accelerate. There have been other owners of this same car, year ect. THAT HAVE LOST TRANSMISSION WHILE DRIVING!!!! Want to get to the bottom? HOW MANY 18CAMRYS MAKE IT TO 300k or even 200k without a new transmission. Most die 65k !! Lemon Come on. Toyota mechanics, YouTube, Toyota nation, dealerships, it is a well known fact that the 18 Camrys being that they cheaper out on so many parts, and added this new transmission, they’re known for failure! [XXX]. This company is [XXX] people. With jobs, kids, and now you’ve got to fork out minimum...

Shifted the operating car from park to drive when the car suddenly and unexpectedly took off even though I was not touching the accelerator. The car accelerated across the street and slammed into a parked car. The airbags did not deploy which would indicate a low-speed but the pre-collision system did not stop the car which would indicate higher- speed. My car was written off as a complete loss by my insurance carrier and the damage to the parked car that was hit was extensive.

The transmission has completely malfunctioned. The car started stalling in traffic. It then stopped registering gears and stopped pulling. The car was taken to a shop who stated transmissions issues along with a brake assist failure. The torque converter has not been released by Toyota. My car has 139000 miles. I have researched this issue and many others have reported the same problem!

I have notice for the past year when I’m driving the car around the city around 15-30mph the emergency auto braking system alarm sounds and shows on my dash board when I have nobody in front of me luckily the car doesn’t brake at all but is not normal for it to do that it just happens randomly maybe this year alone it happen 5 times. Nobody safety was put at risk the car doesn’t brake or anything but it just sounds the alarm to brake, like 100% of the time is a low speeds. I haven’t taken it to the dealer, and I have no warning lights nothing at all is just random.

Driving down the interstate it started snowing and it was a wet snow so it was sticking to the front of the car. Warning light for the front collision light came on and said was disabled or something like that. It was also white outs during this snow storm so with that out not knowing if there's a car in front of me put not only my life but my husband's life in danger. Once we stopped for gas and cleared front of car off it was fine. We've owned this car since 2018 and this is the 1st snowstorm we've encountered this.

pulling into parking stall in front of a store at a slow speed and my Camry Hybrid unexpectedly accelerated and lurched forward. I could not stop the car and the car hit the building at the end of the parking stall

There are multiple warning lights on my dash at this time. The following malfunctions are showing on my dash at this time: Pre-Collision System Malfunction, LDA Malfunction, Headlamp malfunction, SRS Malfunction, Low Braking Power, Secondary Collision Brake System Malfunction, Power Steering Malfunction, Antilock Brake System Malfunction. These started coming on around two weeks ago. I have no blinkers available and my steering stiffens to where the car is almost undriveable. I contacted Toyota corporate office and the representative said she has not heard of these warnings, but they are on many Toyota forums on the internet. I took the vehicle to Toyota North in Goodlettsville, TN on 10/12/2022 and they can not tell me what is wrong with my car. I feel it is a safety hazard to drive this car at this point since this car has automatic braking power. I also have videos available, if needed. This is...

Brake light switch failure causing loss of break lights and other safety features such as emergency stopping, lane change notification, loss of anti-lock brakes,and other safety features.

Pre- collision warning popped out of no where, my car will also brake out of no where after no one is in front of me

All of the warning notifications keep going off. I have been to the dealership 3 times paid for a battery replacement and battery terminal replacement. I was quoted a ridiculous rate for a engine wiring harness replacement, I had to get that replaced by a certified technician but the car is still doing the same thing. I am starting to feel like I was sold a lemon.

In dealer 2 different dealers for 2 computer failures 2x. So called repaired. Car hits the brakes by itself there is no way to turn off the radar on the front of the car. You have to remember to turn it off everytime you drive it. Then the gas pedal and brakes failed. The tow truck guy said just disconnect the battery for 15 minutes to re-set the Ecu. Well he did and I had to retrain the car how to shift over several days. Good thing the failure occured at 30mph. I am selling this. I have owned Camry's since the 90's and im afraid to drive this and bought another car. Contact the next owner. Selling it as is.........

SUNDAY NIGHT MARCH 21/2021 8:37PM I WAS DRIVING IN STATEN ISLAND WITH A PASSENGER, WAY TO DROPP HIM OFF, OVER 40MPH, AND SUDDEN MY CAR HAD A BRAKES FAILURE, ON MY DASHBOARD APPEARS A CODE 'LOW BRAKING POWER', WE WERE IN PANIC, AND I WAS APPROACHING TO A LINE OF CAR IN AN STOP LIGHT IN RED, I WAS PUSHING MY BRAKES SEVERAL TIMES BUT NEVER RESPONSE, I HAD TO MANEUVER MY CAR TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND THERE WAS PEOPLE CROSSING AND FINALLY I GOT PUSH MY EMERGENCY BRAKE.(I HAVE HE VIDEO IN FULL HD AS EVIDENCE)

MY AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM HAS BEEN GOING OFF EVEN WHEN A CAR IS NOWHERE NEAR, TODAY I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM. WHEN GOING TO YIELD, THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, AND IT FELT LIKE THE CAR STALLED, I COULD NOT MANUALLY BRAKE AND IT RESULTED IN ME REAR ENDING THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME.

ELECTRONIC MALFUNCTION OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING. POWER WINDOWS, AIR BAGS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, HEADS UP DISPLAY, CLIMATE CONTROL, LANE ASSIST, AUTO LIGHTS, SEAT WARMERS, LANE ASSIST AND COLLISION SENSORS NOT WORKING. SINCE AUTO-LIGHTS FEATURE NOT WORKING, I HAD TO MANUALLY TURN ON LIGHTS AND AFTER 20 MINUTES OF DRIVING, THEY SHUT OFF.
