SUMMARY:
WHEN TRAVELING ON THE FREEWAY ABOVE 60 MPH, THE CAR WANDERS AND IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE. THE TOYOTA DEALER CHECKED THE ALIGNMENT ONCE, AND SLIGHTLY ADJUSTED IT. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I AM HEARING MANY 2012 CAMRY OWNERS HAVE THE SAME COMPLAINT, AND THEIR IS NO FIX. THIS IS DANGEROUS. *TR

SUMMARY:
THE MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH STARTED SMOKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON 6/18/12. AT THE TIME, I WASN'T AWARE OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE POWER SWITCHES. SO MY FAMILY AND I JUMPED OUT THE CAR AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. THEY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND THE CAR TOWED TO TOYOTA. THE POWER SWITCH HAD BURNED UP AND SOME OF THE DOOR PANEL WAS BURNED AS WELL. WENT BACK TO GET MY CAR, AND THE BATTERY WENT OUT AS WELL. TODAY, 10/12/12, MY CAR IS STILL IN THE SHOP AT TOYOTA. IT HAS BEEN A LONG, DRAWN OUT PROCESS, BUT I'LL BE GLAD WHEN I RECEIVE MY REIMBURSEMENT AND CAR. I AM A LOYAL TOYOTA CUSTOMER AND THIS IS MY FIRST INCIDENT WITH THEM. *TR

SUMMARY:
WIFE WAS DRIVING ON FREEWAY IN SCOTTSDALE WHEN A SMALL ROCK IMPACTED LOWER LEFT OF WINDSHIELD. OVER THE PERIOD OF 2 HOURS A CRACK 3 FEET LONG DEVELOPED ACROSS DRIVERS SIDE OF WINDSHIELD. THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING ON THE INTERNET FOR THE CAMRY HYBRID SINCE 2007. THIS APPEARS TO BE MANUFACTURERS DEFECT IN ENGINEERING DESIGN OR MANUFACTURE. TOYOTA IS NOT ADDRESSING THE ISSUE, SINCE THEY MAKE A LOT OF MONEY ON THE WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT (>$1,200 FOR A WINDSHIELD? GIVE ME A BREAK). HAVE NUMEROUS ROCK CHIPS IN WINDSHIELDS OF OTHER VEHICLES THAT DO NOT RESULT IN THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE. *TR
