| Apr 2026 | HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM | The contact owns a 2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V869000 (Hybrid Propulsion System). The local dealer was contacted and offered a loaner. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted regarding a buyback, but no assistance was provided. The contact had not experienced a failure. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Apr 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | There is a recall for this vehicle for a loose inverter bolt. NHTSA recall No. 25V-869. The inverter bolt can become loose leading to a loss of drive power or fire while vehicle is on which can cause an accident, injury, or loss of life/property if the above mentioned occur while operating the vehicle. Information given by Toyota Brand Engagement Center has stated the remedy was supposed to have been available in February 2026. When follow up calls were made after February passed with no recall update, Toyota stated that the remedy should be available by the end of the 1st quarter. When the first quarter passed with still no update regarding the recall, another follow up call was made to Toyota with no updates available and no idea when an update could occur or when a remedy could possibly become available. They have failed to provide an update to the recall and when its potential remedy will be available in a timely manner allowing the continued use of these vehicles, knowing the potential for sudden loss of drive power could lead to accidents with the potential for catastrophic outcomes such as loss of life. This delay in remedy seems unacceptable and reckless at minimum. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Apr 2026 | LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I am filing a complaint against our 2026 Toyota Camry XLE AWD, this complaint probably impacts all new cars. I have no issues with the mechanics or the car, its mileage, etc. However, the so-called safety features, what you call ADAS, are nothing more than a driver distraction. The reason for the complaint is that there is no means by which these distractions can be permanently disabled. I understand that there was a law suit a number of years ago whose outcome resulted in the distractions being permanently on. However, this is wrong! Adding a disable feature to the system is trivial; and to avoid future lawsuits, only allowing the dealership to activate this feature once the car owner signs a form that prevents them from filing suits is easily accomplished. I urge you to change the rules so these distraction features can be disabled. They are certainly going to cause accidents because the driver pays attention to the car and not that which is happening outside the car. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Mar 2026 | STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | I purchased a 2026 Toyota Camry SE in November 2025. The hybrid battery has stop working several times also the steering system has failed as well. I am told the hybrid battery is defective. Toyota the Manufacture has refused to replace it. I am afraid for my safety. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | POWER TRAIN,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The remedy to fix the current recall is taking absurdly long. I have driven a car previously in which there was a sudden loss of power and the risk to myself and other drivers is very dangerous. I just purchased this car in Nov. and the recall was soon after. I am very disappointed in this lack of urgency in finding a remedy. I purchased this car for my teen daughter to drive - what a mark on the safety of Toyotas name. There should be an investigation as to why the remedy is not being rushed as, again a lack of power and/or risk of fire on a busy California freeway, is putting so many at risk. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Mar 2026 | STEERING,WHEELS | I purchased a Toyota camry 2026 on January 5th 2026. After a week of driving the vehicle. I noticed it was sliding around & having a hard time stopping on my way home from work. One night going up a hill. I had to stop at a red light. When it turned green I tried to proceed. The tires just spun out I couldn't go any further. I had to turn around & go a different way. It's was only cold out no snow on the ground yet. A couple days later in the burger King drive thru. I had my son in the car. I was going less than 10mph. The vehicle wouldn't stop at the speaker. I ended up sliding into the speaker. It scared my son & myself. I attempted to contact Toyota about the issue. They told me if I wanted more aggressive winter tires. Then I should buy some. It's not about wanting winter tires I told them. It's about my safety, the safety of my family & the safety of other drivers on the road. They claim the OEM tires are all season tires. They are definitely not all season tires made for anyone that lives up north. I've never ever had an issue with a brand new vehicle driving in the winter with OEM tires until this Toyota. They refused to address the issue. I've also contacted the tire manufacturer. Even though they never sold the tires to me living in Connecticut in the winter. It was Toyota that decided these tires were ok to put on the vehicle & sell in any region of the USA. I had to purchase new England all season tires. Which cost quite a lot. I'd I had known I had to buy brand new tires for a 33,000$ vehicle. I either would have worked that into the cost of the vehicle. Or I wouldn't have purchased the vehicle. The salesman never told me the tires are a safety liability in Connecticut during the winter. Which is when I purchased the vehicle. The OEM tires that came with the camry cannot be driven in cold weather. I even offered to bring the car in to the dealership so they could put different tires on the vehicle that would be safe. | Crash: Yes Fire: No | Unknown |

| Feb 2026 | POWER TRAIN,ENGINE | On 01/23/26 and again on 02/02/26, I lost power while driving. Fortunately, on both times I was able to turn off the road with no injury or property damage to me or others. I don’t remember if there was a screen message as I was taken by such surprise. Both times, I was traveling about 35 - 40 mph. On 02/04/26 I took my car to my dealer, AutoNation Toyota, Winter Park, Fl. I advised of these incidents and stated I was now afraid of my car. Later, I realized the service tech did Not mention these specific issues. A complete diagnosis of my car did not reveal any problem. On 02/17/26, I received the bolt recall, which could cause power loss with no remedy available yet. I emailed AutoNation asking for a refund or replacement Camry not affected by the recall. Per my request, they did provide my 2 incidents and my fear to the 02/04/26 invoice. I find it odd that the service tech did not mention these specific issues in the upcoming recall. It seems the dealers would be made aware prior to customers. I have taken a loaner car now pending repair being available. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

| Feb 2026 | AIR BAGS,SEAT BELTS,VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL | The driver of a 2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid experienced a serious safety event involving both the seatbelt restraint system and vehicle speed control systems. While operating the vehicle, the driver-side seatbelt allegedly disengaged/unlatched unexpectedly. The driver was properly restrained prior to the incident and did not intentionally release the seatbelt. The disengagement occurred immediately before or during a single-vehicle crash. During the crash sequence, airbags deployed. However, it appeared that the vehicle continued to move forward under cruise control or sustained throttle input even after airbag deployment. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 1 Towed | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The vehicle is producing an extremely loud squealing/whining noise while driving and turning. The sound occurs at both low and high speeds. It is not subtle — it is loud enough to be heard across a large parking lot. For example, if the vehicle is at the back of a parking lot, someone standing at the front can clearly hear it. It can also be heard as I enter my neighborhood, before I am even close to my home, and my neighbors have noticed it as well. The sound resembles something rubbing or grinding against something else. It does not sound normal or consistent with typical hybrid system operation. The dealership has stated that this is simply the hybrid system; however, I also own a 2025 Camry Hybrid, and it does not make this noise. Additionally, the loaner Camry I was provided does not produce this sound either. This strongly suggests that the noise is not a normal characteristic of the vehicle. I am very concerned that there may be a mechanical issue that has not been properly diagnosed. At this point, I have been unable to receive meaningful assistance or resolution from the dealership. I am requesting a thorough inspection and clear explanation of the cause of this noise, as well as appropriate corrective action. Please advise on the next steps to resolve this matter promptly. Thank you for your attention to this issue. The system will not allow me to add a file attachment. Please reach out for copies and I will be happy to provide them. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | The rear glass of the sunroof exploded while driving at highway speeds. The safety risk involved is that is sounded like a gunshot went off and the entire car got extremely loud, taking my attention off of the road, thank goodness the sunshade was closed and didn't shower me with glass. YES, the problem has been confirmed by multiple other owners online, and Toyota denies taking responsibility for its manufacturing defect putting all drivers at risk. It is being evaluated at by insurance. No warning lamps messages or any warning sign whatsoever before the rear section of the sunroof exploded. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2026 | POWER TRAIN | There is no remedy available for the safety recall until sometime in the first quarter of 2026. This could be several months. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
