| Apr 2020 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE WHEN I HEARD A LOUD GUNSHOT SOUND AND ALL THE SUDDEN GLASS RAINED DOWN ON ME AND INTO MY CAR. MY SUNROOF EXPLODED OUT OF NOWHERE. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED ME TO WRECK BECAUSE I SHUT MY EYES AND SWERVED. ALSO, THANK GOODNESS MY DAUGHTER WASN'T IN THE BACK SEAT OR SHE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED. | Crash: No Fire: No | 7,500 |
| Mar 2020 | ENGINE | ENGINE SERIAL NUMBER D243692 LARGE LETTERS UNDERNEATH NUMBER A25A. SAFETY RECALL NOTICE NUMBER 20TA04. DUE TO THE MEDICAL EMERGENCY CORONAVIRUS IN THE UNITED STATES I AM REQUESTING A LIST OF SERIAL NUMBERS FOR THE ENGINE BLOCKS 2020 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE DEALER I CONTACTED REFUSE TO TELL ME IF MY ENGINE BLOCK NUMBER IS ONE THAT IS AFFECTED BY THIS RECALL, I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE DEALER COULD ONLY PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION TO ME. I AM REQUESTING THIS INFORMATION UNDER US FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT. THANK YOU, | Crash: No Fire: No | 4,428 |
| Mar 2020 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | THE CAR CAN SIT FOR 1 DAY WITHOUT DRIVING OR NOT STARTING IT AND IT WILL NOT START THE NEXT DAY. IT HAS TO BE JUMP STARTED. | Crash: No Fire: No | 4,800 |
| Mar 2020 | POWER TRAIN,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,ENGINE | DURING MULTIPLE EPISODES WHETHER THE CAR IS AT A STOP OR IN MOTION THERE IS A DELAY FROM WHEN THE ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED TO WHEN THE ENGINE RESPONDS AND REVS LEADING TO MORE POWER AND SPEED. FOR EXAMPLE WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT TRYING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, I PRESS THE ACCELERATOR DOWN AND THERE IS NO MAJOR CHANGE IN SPEED AND REVS UNTIL SECONDS LATER WHEN THEN ENGINE THEN GOES FROM 1000RPMS TO 3000RPMS. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS AND ALMOST LED TO AN ACCIDENT AS THERE WAS AN ONCOMING CAR THAT ALMOST HIT ME AS I WAS TRYING TO MAKE THE TURN. ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I WAS TRYING TO ACCELERATE TO MERGE ONTO THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS AN ACCELERATION DELAY FOR A SAFE MERGE. | Crash: No Fire: No | 750 |
| Mar 2020 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | RODENTS APPEAR TO BE ATTRACTED TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHERE THEY ARE EATING CRITICAL WIRING. THE WIRING IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED WITH THE DEALERSHIP, COSTING ME $600. AFTER RETURNING THE VEHICLE FROM THESE REPAIRS AT THE DEALERSHIP, I PARKED THE VEHICLE AT HOME AND AGAIN RODENTS ENTERED THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CHEWED UP ADDITIONAL WIRING THE VERY NEXT DAY. THE NEW REPAIRS COST ME AND ADDITIONAL $600. THE HOME IS LOCATED IN A RURAL AREA UNDER A CARPORT. I HAVE LIVED IN THIS HOME FOR SEVEN YEARS AND HAVE OTHER CARS PARKED ADJACENT TO THE AUTOMOBILE IN QUESTION. NO OTHER VEHICLES, HOWEVER, HAVE HAD OR ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH RODENTS. I WILL BE TRADING IN THIS VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. I CAN NOT AFFORD THESE COSTLY REPAIR BILLS. | Crash: No Fire: No | 1,900 |

| Jan 2020 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | SLOW ACCELERATION DURING 1ST 1 OR 2 GEARS. ALMOST HAD MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS IN HIGHWAY DUE TO SLOW ACCELERATION WHEN CHANGING LANES. THE VEHICLE DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND TO ACCELERATION WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS USED. THE VEHICLE HAS A COUPLE OF SECONDS DELAY UNTIL IT CHANGING INTO NEXT GEAR. DEALER NON RESPONSIVE. I BROUGHT IT INTO MY TOYOTA DEALER AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN DROVE MY CAR WITH ME IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I EXPLAINED THAT MY PREVIOUS (3) V6 TOYOTA CAMRY'S DID NOT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION, HE TOTALLY UNDERSTOOD. THE NEW 8- SPEED TRANSMISSION HAS DIFFERENT SHIFT SETTINGS WHICH EXPLAINS THE ACCELERATION DELAY AND SOMETIMES CAUSES A JERKY MOTION FROM A DEAD STOP, DRIVING IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC OR WHILE ENTERING A HIGHWAY. ACCORDING TO THE TECH, THEY HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH NO FIXES FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THE CAR WILL "LEARN" MY DRIVING HABITS THE MORE I DRIVE IT. | Crash: No Fire: No | 100 |
