Transmission slips when putting car in reverse. only has 82k. i heard from the transmission shop that this is a defect with 92-94 camry and lexus. in fact, a lexus was being towed into the shop when i was there with the exact problem. i haven't had it fixed yet because it will cost $1700, which i don't have. i am still making payments of $310 a month and now the transmission is going out. i would like toyota to admit the problem and repair it per consumer goodwill. any advice will be appreciated. thank you.*ak | |||

There is a service bulletin #eg94-002 on this mechanical complaint, i have contacted the dealer, they said that if toyota issues a recall on the defect, they would be more than happy to do the repair. toyota is aware of the defect or they never would have issued the service bulletin. if they are aware of their mistakes, then they should pay to repair them. there are a lot of disgruntled toyota owners out there with the same complaint, and i feel toyota should own up to a bad design!ect | |||

All routine maintenance on this car was done by myself. all fluids, filters etc., were changed in accordance with toyota's maintenance schedule either on schedule or ahead of schedule. because i didn't have a receipt for transmission fluid and filter changes which i performed myself since vehicle was new, toyota is refusing to honor the 5 year, 60,000 mile warranty. it would be obvious to anyone who looked at my car that it has in fact, been well maintained. it is 6 years old, still looks like new inside and out and all other fluids are clean and been regularly changed as well. i purchased a toyota because of the vehicle and company reputation. i think it's fairly obvious what i feel about toyota's service reputation at this point. i have sent several registered letters to all company execs, ceos, etc. also, the better business bureau, the dept. of consumer affairs, action line here in charleston as well as a few others. thanks to all for listening. | |||

We took our car into a firestone dealer to find out why this car was chewing up tires. this is the third set of tires we have put on this vehicle and the vehicle has only 63,000 or so miles on it. the last set of tires was put on by sam's at 55,415 miles and the have already gone bad. they were top of the line tires at 59.99 dollars each. they were warranteed for 50,000 miles. this is the 3rd set of tires on this vehicle at 63,000 miles. i think there is a defect that runs in these cars in the cv axle which is what the firestone dealer told me was shot in my car and i believe that this is chewing up the tires. i have had my car aligned, the tires rotated and balanced regularly on this last set of tires and they have gone bad anyway. this is a danger to the public because the tires are wearing quickly and unevenly in a short amount of time. they are also splitting.( dot number: tire size: 195/0hr14 ) | |||
