| Defect Summary | Certain all weather floor mats (awfm) specifically sold as an optional accessory for use on the 2007 and 2008 model year lexus es350 and toyota camry vehicles. the awfm includes two grommet holes and retaining hooks (clips) to secure the mat to the vehicle's carpet. if the awfm is not secured by itself or if it is placed on top of an existing carpeting floor mat, the mat could move forward during the vehicle usage and it may interfere with the accelerator pedal. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | The accelerator pedal may temporarily become stuck in a partially depressed position when returning to the idle position. if this condition occurs, it may increase the possibility of a crash. | |||||||||||||||
| Corrective Summary | Toyota will notify owners of all 2007 and 2008 lexus es350 and toyota camry vehicles about the recall even though not all of these owners will have purchased the all weather mats. if the owner had not purchased the mats, they are not affected by the recall. this letter will advise owners when replacement mats will be available or how to return the all weather floor mat set to obtain a refund. a second letter will be sent after mats are available requesting owners to return their mats to a lexus or toyota dealer for exchange of the driver's side mat. the first letter is expected to be sent during early october 2007 and the second in late november 2007. owners can contact the lexus customer assistance center at 1-800-255-3987 or the toyota customer experience center at 1-888-270-9371. | |||||||||||||||

| I have a 2003 toyota tundra access cab. i recently was putting my 5 year-old daughter into their back seat and she put her hand up to stabilize herself and the entire front passenger side safety belt harness and casing which is supposed to be permanently attached to the frame came complete off of the frame. there was no undue stress put on the harness or casing and no pressure was applied. there is now a hole where the bolt was once permanently attached to the frame. i called my local dealership for the sake of convenience and made an appointment for 12-12-08 at 8:30 am. they said it would take about an hour. i took it in and the service guy was very kert and said that it would take a minimum of 3 hours and cost $104.00. finding this unacceptable, i told him i did not feel i should pay to have a basic part of the car's safety looked at. i can understand if it is a diagnostic test. but it is a safety belt! my other safety belt on the drivers side creeks which makes me wonder if there is something wrong with that one as well. i am glad i did not find out the passenger side safety belt was defective during the course of an accident. any assistance and/or guidance you can give on this important matter would be greatly appreciated. i have contacted toyota as well who told me that it is a warranty issue and it is out of warranty. *tr | |||

| The headlights on the 2007 prius turn off by them self. if you turn them off and back on they will be back on and turn off again, this is how i know it is not a lose wire. i worked with a fleet of prius and lexus hybrid cars. the prius has had this issue since 2006. multiple cars wit the same symptoms. the toyota dealership charges you up to $ 1,700 + to fix this issue. there are forums all over the net discussing this issue and many concern drivers on the road that do not know how to utilize the power of the internet. this is no longer a money issue, it has become a safety issue now. police have ticketed me over 5 times and i have gone to toyota and they charge me thousands. last week i almost ran over a little girl on a bike at dusk ...when i stopped and asked if she was ok she replied i didn't see your lights sir, i am sorry . *tr | |||

| Driver's seat slides when i accelerate or stop. it occurs every time i drive the vehicle and i have taken it in to checkered flag toyota in virginia beach, va to have the problem fixed. it is obvious there is a problem with the track the seat sits on. the service technician asked the service adviser how heavy i was (i weigh 135lbs) and told her the problem could not be fixed, the entire seat would have to be replaced. checkered flag will not respond to my service requests. | |||

| 2009 camry i bought a used camry 2009 with 64,000 miles on it. i noticed that while making a turn, both right and left axles were creating sound. then i called toyota's customer relations dept. around nov 11th and reported this matter to them. they gave to me the complaint # 0911116335. they advised me to go to the local dealer. i took the car to the local dealer on dec.3,2009 and a mechanic rode with me in the car and agreed that both axles are bad. i left the car with the dealer to confirm this problem. when i picked up the car, they charged me $ 50.00 for inspection and wrote the report that only left axel was bad. as i have already pointed out, mechanic had already confirmed that both axles were bad. it appears that to 'tone down' this defect, toyota home office advised the dealer to report that only one axel was bad. dealer's estimate for replacing one axel was around $ 900.00 after 10% discount on the parts. i understand that there may be only few 2009 camrys which would have 64,000 miles on them. i request you to register my complaint and look for other 2009 camry users to report this problem. another problem i have noticed is the similar brake problem that toyota has in prius models. when applying brakes on a slippery condition, car does not stop for few feet. please also investigate this matter. *tr | |||

| 2006 camry xle i-4 transmission fluid changed at 30k miles came out black!! this means the fluid is being burned. car not abused. driven in 3rd & 2nd on two days 25 days apart down road to yosemite brake used to keep speed down. only time i can think of that added stress to transmission. another time i had to step/floor accelerator on freeway on-ramp up grade to keep fast moving semi-truck from running me over. this is normal operation. transmission failure at these time could be very dangerous. *tw | |||

| We own a 2007 toyota camry and have gone to our local dealership to have the recall taking care of. and to our surprise our gas pedal was cut to a size much smaller than its original version. we have never received notification of this solution for this recall, nor have seen anything on the media that states this is what is being done for a solution. the gas pedal in this format is unacceptable and my foot does not sit properly on the pedal as it should and did before this adjustment. we feel that a new gas pedal should be installed. we purchased this vehicle new and should be entitled to new parts for recalled items, not damaged items in a new vehicle. is there anything you can do to assist with this matter or address toyota corp regarding this solution? *tr | |||
