| The driver's side visor broke. it flopped down and would not stay out of the way of the drivers' vision. it was dangerous to the operation of the vehicle. it had to be completely removed. the car was less than 4 years old and although it seems to be faulty workmanship the visor is not covered under warranty. | |||

| The driver's sun visor has dropped on both of our 2007 camry's that we own. one is so bad that we removed it because you can't see with it down. however, if you are driving east or west you are blinded by the sun. the othe car is just as bad because the visor won't stay up. this too is a problem for driver safety and for the safety of others!!! this isn't a coincidence that out of all camrys sold that we got the two where the visors failed. there needs to be a recall!! why should the owner be held to paying for this expense when it is a factory defect? | |||

| I was driving don't remember the date but early part of tis year the visor on the driver just drop almost hit the car in front of me. it started like getting hard to snap back in place at first but just drop. the visor on passenger side did the same thing bout two week later took it todealer he told me it was nothing they could do wasn't a recall so i had to pay for it. needly to say i have no job and no visor. this car was new when i bought it in the last of 2009,with 307 miles. and it nothing can be done i see all these other people with the same problems on this gov.site and nothing been done yet i guess someone got to get hurt or kill first. why hasn't it been a recall to correct this problem. | |||

| My 2007 camry smells horribly like mold and mildew. the mold is in the a/c but i can't get sunnyside toyota to replace the a/c and clean the vents. what do i do? i have been complaining since i bought the car brand new in march 2006. i finally found a doctor who could diagnois what was wrong. the mold in the a/c of my toyota has caused my leg muscles to be weaken so i have alot of pain walking and a large bump on my legg. toyota has been nice but won't clean out my a/c or vents and won't admit this is a very very common problem in the 2007 camry. i am high sensitive to mold and it has caused alot of sick days, doctors appts, and pain. i would like them to replace the a/c and i am sure there will find the mold. | |||

| Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6) the incident: accelerated gas pedal the incident took place on crain hwy, glen burnie at the intersection of crain hwy/aquahart rd on 9/26/2009. i was traveling on crain highway when i came to a stop at a traffic light. i applied pressure on the break. and thought i had come to a complete stop when my 2007 toyota camry ce had unexpectedly jolted forward. i immediately applied both feet on the brake pedal and said wow that was weird i didn't think much about the incident other than i just being a freak malfunction. only until the recent recalls of my toyota model was it brought to my attention that i may have experienced the accelerated gas pedal malfunction with my vehicle. no accidents were a result of the incident; however i was shaken up a bit. i received a recall notice from toyota in late january explaining that my 2007 toyota camry was part of a recall to replace the driver | |||

| I have a 2007 toyota camry built in japan. i noticed that it is not included in the acceleration or floormat recalls. do the cars built in japan not have the same problems as those built in america? if not, what is different that excludes my car from the recall? my vin # begins with a j. *tr | |||

| I was driving a 2007 camry in san jose, california on january 29, 2009. involved in a solo accident and i suffered a concussion so i have amnesia about the actual accident. post-accident photographs from the investigator from mercury insurance company confirms in two separate photos that carpeted floor mat was wedged up into the brake/accelerator area. i have filed a civil lawsuit against toyota motor sales, u.s.a., inc. in santa clara county. toyota has yet to accept responsibility for accident. first case management conference is scheduled for may of this year. *tr | |||

| 2007 runaway toyota problem-dot has put out a recall notice on my 2007 toyota camry le indicating that toyota's remedy of removing the drivers side floor mat does not resolve the problem and that there is an unindentified safety deficiency. since the problem in all probability relates to a computer chip governing the accelerator or the functioning of the accelerator pedal, permitting millions of toyotas to operates with a hidden safety hazard is inappropriate. toyota should be required in a very short finite time period to resolve the problem or recall the cars and reimburse owners. defective cars that can cause deaths should not be permitted to roam the highways. *tr | |||

| Purchased a 2007 camry le, 4 door, on 12/12/06. cruise control has failed many times. when going down hill with the cruise on the car will keep accelerating to very unsafe speeds. this started from the date of purchase. i went through arbitration in march of 2007 and was told by the arbitrator that there has been an unreasonable amount of repair attempts for the same nonconformist that will impair the use, value and safety of the vehicle since dec.2006. the problem has not been corrected and i don't use the cruise control. i have found that this problem has caused deaths, the latest in california, and several wrecks even in the area where i live. how many lives must be taken before toyota will step up to bat and make a recall on this defective cruise control. the floor mats that toyota is saying will cause this problem might be in part the cause but certainly not the root of the problem. i have been trying to get this situation addressed since the purchase of this vehicle and the near wrecks that i have almost encountered to no avail. the arbitrator did agree with my complaints but as stated above there had not been enough attempts provided by the dealership to correct the problem. how many times must one take a vehicle to the dealership with the same complaint before any action will be taken. i feel my life is more important than the runaround that i have received from toyota and this is a very serious safety malfunction of the vehicle. i have all sorts of documentation to back my complaint and my 2007 camry is not the only vehicle on the road with this safety issue. i was told by toyota that the design had been changed with the 2007's and certainly the symptoms are consistent with control system malfunction but they did not know how to fix the problem. *tr | |||
