| The frame along the windshield on the passenger's side obstructs vision, causing the driver not to see well. the driver was concerned because the vehicle was brand new. the dealer was made aware of the problem. *ak the view was obstructed for vehicles to the right, the rear seat headrests blocked the view in the rear view mirror as well as when looking back to change lanes or back up. the consumer had to remove the rear headrests to avoid problems. when the rear windows were opened 1/2 to full, there was a tunnel type of sensation and the vehicle would shake. the vehicle would be at a stop sign and when needing to turn left, the consumer was unable to get a clear view of approaching traffic on the passenger side. there was a span of time when the vehicles were completely blocked by the frame on the passenger side windshield. the consumer attempted to adjust the height and distance of the seat position, but was limited due to height restrictions. other consumers have experienced the same problem. (the width of the panel/frame seemed to be a part of the problem which also seemed to be a the late model issue) *scc *jb | |||

| Approximately 45 days ago (aug. 27, 2003) i purchased a 2004 toyota camray solara. the auto is equipped with a low tire pressure warning system. on day one, the system alerted me of low tire pressure. i took the vehicle back to the dealership at it was fixed. the following morning, i noticed moisture condensation on the inside. i turned on the ac and it disappeared. for the second time, the low pressure indicator was on and i again returned the car to the dealership. the dealerships service department checked the tires, informed me that all the tires must have the same pressure, and showed me the reset switch under the dash. a week later, after a rain storm, the car carpets were wet. i returned the car to the dealer and after a day, the car was returned and i was admonished to ensure that i didn't leave the car windows open. at the end of that week, there was another heavy rain storm and my car remained parked for that entire weekend, with the windows closed. on sunday, september 14th, i entered the car and once again, the floor mats were soaked and there was a musty/moldy smell in the car. on the following monday (9/15) i returned the car to the dealer. this time, after a day, the service department told me that there was a reported problem of water leaking and that i would have to return the car later in the week to have the dashboard removed and the leaking part replaced/repaired. and, once again, the low tire pressure indicator was on. my car is still not totally repaired and the low tire pressure light is on again. the dealer now has possession of my car for almost as much time as i have. i am waiting for the next rain storm and i?m afraid to wash my car. in addition, there are mold and mold spores growing in the vehicle, which is aggravating my asthma. *la | |||
