2002 Toyota Camry Seats Problems

SEAT NO LONGER MOVES FORWARD OR BACKWARD BUT TWISTS LIKE ONLY THE INSIDE TRACK IS MAKING CONTACT WITH THE GEARS. I CAN SEE THE OUTER GEAR TURNING BUT NO CONTACT WITH WORM GEAR. *TR

VACUUMING MY DRIVERS SIDE SEAT I HAD MOVED THE DRIVER SEAT FORWARD FINISHED VACUUMING I TRIED TO MOVE THE SEAT BACK TO THE POSITION I HAD IT,WOULD NOT BUDGE SO I THOUGHT MAYBE A BAD FUSE NO THE FUSE WAS GOOD SO I THOUGHT THE MOTOR WOULD BE BAD AND HAVE TO WAIT TILL MONDAY TO TAKE INTO TOYOTA. AT TOYOTA I RECEIVED THIS INFORMATION THAT THE SEAT TRACK ASSEMBLY HAS EITHER SEIZED OR WAS FROZEN AND TO REPAIR THIS PART WOULD BE $1,200.00 I HAVE NEVER HEARD SUCH A THING AS TRACK WERE YOU ARE SITTING FREEZE OR SEIZE. *TR

MY COMPLAINT IS THE SAME WITH CASE #10224937. THE DRIVER SEAT ADJUSTER FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. SINCE THIS IS MY WIFE'S CAR, MOST OF THE TIME SHE'S REACHING HARD THE PEDALS. I DIDNT BRING MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED. FAILURE MILEAGE IS BETWEEN 70,000 - 80,000 MILES AND UNTIL NOW. PRESENT MILEAGE IS 90,400. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 TOYOTA CAMRY SOLARA. ON APRIL 14, 2008, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT ADJUSTER FAILED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. BOTH THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT HER WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THAT TYPE OF FAILURE. SHE CURRENTLY HAS TO USE PILLOWS TO REACH BOTH THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 91,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 91,010. UPDATED 05/13/08. *LJ

DT: CONSUMER OWNS A 2002 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE SEAT TRACK WORE OUT. SHE FELT THAT THIS MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE IT ALLOWED THE SEAT TO MOVE FREELY. THE DEALER TOLD HER THE SEAT REPAIR WOULD COST $350 FOR LABOR AND THE PART WAS $1304. SHE CALLED THE MANUFACTURER, AND THE MANUFACTURER LEFT HER A MESSAGE SAYING THAT THEY WOULD MAKE HER A ONE TIME OFFER OF REIMBURSING $1000. *AK

THE SEAT RECLINER BROKE, AND COULD NOT BE RAISE UP SO THAT CONSUMER COULD OPERATE THE VEHICLE. DEALER WAS NOTIFIED, AND WILL DO REPAIRS AT CONSUMER'S EXPENSE.*AK

DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT JIGGLES AND MOVES 1 TO 1 1/2 INCHES FORWARD WHEN STOPPING. THEN, GOES BACK INTO PLACE WHEN THE VEHICLE STOPS. CONSUMER IS AFRAID THAT THE SEAT MAY COME DETACHED FROM ITS LINKAGE. DEALERSHIP TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE, AND INDICATED THAT IT WAS FINE, AND THE SEAT WAS SUPPOSE TO DO THIS. *AK NEW RAILS WERE INSTALLED BY THE DEALER BUT THE PROBLEM RECURRED. *NM

WHILE WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE, WE STRUCK IN THE REAR OF OUR 2002 TOYOTA.CAMRY. SEAT BELT DIDNOT HOLD ME BECAME LOOSE. SEAT BACK COLLAPESED AND THE SEAT( ELECTRIC) WHENT BACK ABOUT 8 INCHES I COULN'T REACH THE PEDALS. *AK

PLAY IN ELECTRIC MOTORS ALLOW SEATS TO MOVE DURING BRAKING; DEALER NOTIFIED AND SAYS HAS HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS; SAID TOYOTA KNOWS OF PROBLEM BUT HASN'T MADE ANY EFFORT TO FIX THE CAUSE. DT
