| A plastic duct-type of device fell from behind the dashboard and lodged behind the brake pedal preventing braking when i was driving. the item appears to be a heating duct part and has numbers pp-t20, 785-us and 784-us stamped in various locations of the two-part item. this is a very dangerous situation and could have caused me an accident, if i had not had quick wits.*ak | |||

| At 32,000 miles, the warning light indicating low oil pressure came on. the owner took it immediately to the nearest toyota dealer for repair, as it was supposedly under warranty. the dealership and toyota motor corporation refuses to honor any warranty work because of 'engine sludge'. after only checking the oil level and pulling the valve covers off of the engine, they determined that it was 'owner neglect'. and will only look into possible causes at the owners's cost. after researching the internet the owner has found several cases of 'engine sludge' not only in the toyota camry's produced in 1999 through 2001 but in the toyota truck's sienna model, as well.*ak | |||
