2007 Toyota Camry Airbags Problems

You were in a front-end collision in your 2007 Toyota Camry, but the front airbags did not deploy despite significant damage to the front of the car. You sustained chest and neck injuries from impact with the steering wheel. This suggests a potential failure in the airbag system's deployment sensors or electronic components.

Your airbag warning light is coming on frequently—sometimes constantly and sometimes intermittently. You've already checked that the electrical connections under both front seats are secure, so the problem likely lies elsewhere in the airbag system itself. Fixing this will probably require a technician to scan your vehicle's diagnostic codes and test the airbag control module or wiring.

You heard a popping sound while driving, and you've noticed that the side airbag cover isn't staying in place properly. This could indicate an issue with how the airbag cover is secured or attached. The fix will likely involve inspecting and reseating or replacing the airbag cover trim piece.

Whenever I start my car I can see a red triangle symbol I think it’s SRS warning light. Then I check my owner’s manual then I find out that it’s SRS warning lights. I don’t know what to do. Please let me know what should I do?

My dash board is sticky and uncleanable, making it very hard to see out the windshield at all hours day or night, which could potentially cause a crash. I have also noticed tons of people online with the same problem. This needs to be recalled or class action lawsuit.

I'm in love with Toyota. In Brazil I always had cars of this brand, but newer in manufacture. I recently purchased a 2007 Toyota Camry from a third party and at the time of purchase I did not realize the size of the problem. The car as always is excellent. But to my surprise your panel is simply melting. Just tap it and it dissolves in your hand. As it is sticky and sticky in the hot sun, its reflection almost completely covers the front windshield. I need to drive with dark glasses to get visibility. When researching the subject, I realized that this problem is widespread. That all Camry's have this defect. Imagine the danger of those countless drivers driving in poor visibility. It really is a disappointment with Toyota, and I hope they have a solution not only for me, but for everyone, as I consider this a matter of public safety.

Driving around a curve in the highway at about 50 MPH. Truck came into the lane. Driver panicked and pulled to the edge of the lane, lost control of the car. Car spun and both the front end and back end hit a concrete barrier. No airbags deployed. Impact hard enough to lose both fenders and unable to open two of the doors.

I had a rollover accident in my Camry on 5/13/2021. My brakes locked up which sent me into a spin and then eventually flipping over an embankment. Only one of my airbags deployed and it was the passenger door airbag. The rest of the airbags did not go off. Yes the vehicle is still available for inspection. My safety was put at risk because of the brake malfunction and subsequently because of the airbags not deploying in the manner they are aupoosed to. I rolled the vehicle I'm sure the manner in which h I wrecked would have caused all airbags to deploy. No I never seen a brake or a airbag light on my dashboard. No one else has inspected the vehicle components other than an insurance claims rep to determine my vehicle is a total loss. I'm unsure on who I could have look at it without compromising the integrity of the findings. The brakes however were worked on by jd byrider a week and a half before the accident. They changed my rotors.

MY CAR HAS BEEN DRIVING NORMALLY. I KEEP UP WITH MAINTENANCE. I TURNED ON THE CAR AND STARTED DRIVING LIKE NORMAL. NO LIGHTS WERE ON. AS I GOT ON THE HIGHWAY THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON. IT HAS NOT TURNED OFF SINCE.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT STAY ON WHEN DRIVING

THE PLASTIC PANEL THAT HOLDS THE AIRBAG ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE (BETWEEN THE WINDSHIELD AND THE DOOR) IS EXPANDED AND BENT. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG OR IF THE AIRBAG IS EXPANDING INSIDE THE PLASTIC PANEL AND THEREFORE IS DEFECTIVE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SINCE CAMRY WAS NOT PART OF THE AIRBAG RECALL AS MANY OTHER TOYOTA MODELS.

WAS T-BONED ON MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR AT 40MPH AND NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED.. NOT EVEN THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG AND THE WHOLE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW SHATTERED. WAS TURNING LEFT AT A LIGHT WHEN I WAS TBONED.

DASHBOARD IS MELTING, STICKY, SHINY, CREATES DANGEROUS GLARE.

I WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT WERE I WAS HIT FROM THE BACK PUSHED IN TO ANOTHER VEHICLE WE'RE MY CAR WAS TOTALED YET MY AIRBAGS DID NOT COME OUT. NOT ON SIDES OR FRONT. I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOPLIGHT BEHIND FOR OTHER CARS THEN A CAR CAME OUT OF NOWHERE FULL SPEED AT LEAST 30 40 MILES AN HOUR IN MY ESTIMATION HOWEVER HIT ME HARD ENOUGH TO PUSH ME INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS ON THE FEEDER ROAD DIRECTLY OFF OF THE HIGHWAY GOT A COMPLETE STOP.

TAKATA RECALL - FOR SOME REASON THIS MODEL HAS NEVER APPEARED ON THE TAKATA RECALL LIST AND I AM CONCERNED AS MY CAR AGES THAT THIS IS AN INCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. HOW CAN THIS BE ADDRESSED? BY THE WAY I AM THE ORIGINAL AND ONLY OWNER OF THIS 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY.

I WAS CROSSING AN INTERSECTION AFTER THE VEHICLE ON MY LEFT STOPPED. A FORD PICKUP CAME BARRELING OUT OF NOWHERE, SWERVING AROUND THE OTHER VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THE DRIVER WAS GOING FASTER THAN HE CLAIMED ON THE POLICE REPORT (INCLUDED). WE COLLIDED IN THE INTERSECTION FRONT-LEFT-TO-FRONT-RIGHT. MY CAR WAS SPUN AROUND ABOUT `50 DEGREES TO THE RIGHT, ENDING UP ACROSS THE SIDEWALK. BOTH VEHICLES WERE TOTALED. THE OLTHER DRIVER'S AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND HE RECEIVED A CUT ON HIS FOREHEAD. MY TAKATA FRONT AND SIDECURTAIN AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, AND I WAS THROWN INTO THE DRIVER'S DOOR, BREAKING FOUR RIBS, A VERTEBRA, SHOULDER BLADE AND MY COLLARBONE. IN THE REBOUND TO THE RIGHT, MY RIGHT WRIST AND RIGHT ARM JUST ABOVE THE WRIST WERE BROKEN. THE FRACTURES WERE SET UNDER ANESTHESIA, AND I SPENT 8 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL AND ABOUT 7 WEEKS IN A CONVALESCENT/REHAB FACILITY. I AM NOW UNDERGOING WEEKLY OT FOR WEAKNESS, LACK OF MOBILITY, AND PAIN IN MY RIGHT HAND AND WRIST, AND POOR MOBILITY AND PAIN IN MY RIGHT SHOULDER.

THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD STARTED TO BECOME DISFIGURED AND A LITTLE UNEVEN - ENTIRE DASH BECAME VERY STICKY - LIKE IT HAD PARTIALLY MELTED. INITIALLY THOUGHT SOMEONE MAY HAVE SPILLED SOMETHING BUT NOTICED ENTIRE DASH WAS THE SAME FROM LEFT TO RIGHT HAVE SINCE LEARNED THAT THIS WAS A MORE COMMON PROBLEM AND MAY AFFECT PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG UNDERSTAND TOYOTA DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL BUT DID FIX THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE DASH IF CUSTOMERS COMPLAINED CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD DO? I CALLED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD CALL ME BACK AFTER 1-2 DAYS. THEY HAVE NEVER CALLED BACK

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASED THE USED CAR FROM A DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THEY FIXED THE ISSUE BUT THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE AIRBAG TO MALFUNCTION AND THE POSSIBLE ISSUES THAT MAY ARISE SHOULD I BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT.

MY 2007 TOYOTA SOLORA CUTS OFF AS I'M DRIVING! I JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR FOUND OUT IT HAS A FEW RECALLS ! I'M SCARED , THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS! WHAT'S WRONG WITH MY CAR?

TAKATA RECALL NOTHING HAS HAPPENED SO FAR. BECAUSE THE 2007-2011 LEXUS ES WAS RECALLED FOR SOME REGIONS, I WAS WONDERING IF THE 2007-2011 TOYOTA CAMRY SHOULD ALSO BE RECALLED AS WELL, SINCE THE LEXUS ES IS BASED ON THE TOYOTA CAMRY.

AFTER REAR-ENDING A CAR AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH, MY SEAT BELT RELEASED AND AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. MY SEAT BELT HAD BEEN TIGHTLY LOCKED IN PLACE OTHERWISE IT WOULD HAVE PULLED BACK TO "NOT IN USE" POSITION. I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. I BELIEVE MY CAR IS UNSAFE IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

DASHBOARD RECAL AS THE TITLE APTLY SUGGESTS, MY CAMRY'S DASHBOARD HAS MELTED DUE TO THE EXTREME HEAT. MY WINDSHIELD HAS NO TINT AND I SOMETIMES FORGET TO PUT UP THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER WHEN I PARK. THE DASHBOARD NOW FEELS VERY STICKY AND WHEN I LEAVE THE CAR UNDER THE SUN FOR A LONG STRETCH, I CAN ACTUALLY RUB OFF SOME OF THE DASHBOARD'S RUBBER COATING SURFACE IF I TOUCH IT. IT ALSO HAS SEVERAL SCRATCHES DUE TO ACCIDENTAL HITS FROM FINGERNAILS AND SUCH, AND A LOT OF SCRATCHES FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD FOIL COVER (YES, THE DASHBOARD IS NOW THAT SOFT). I'M AFRAID TO APPLY ANYTHING ON IT AS THIS MIGHT JUST MAKE ITS CONDITION WORSE. MY LAST OPTION IS TO USE A DASHBOARD COVER TO HIDE THE SCRATCHES AND PREVENT THE DASHBOARD FROM GETTING DAMAGED FURTHER. MY CONCERNS WITH THIS OPTION ARE: WHERE DO I BUY A GOOD/DECENT-LOOKING DASHBOARD COVER FOR MY CAR? (MY DASHBOARD IS COLOR BLACK). I'M BASED IN FORT BUCHANAN, GUAYNABO AND WOULD THIS GET IN THE WAY OF THE PASSENGER AIRBAG? ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS ASIDE FROM MY IDEA ABOVE, PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO EXPRESS THEM. HELP DESPERATELY NEEDED. THANKS [XXX] [XXX] TODAY I HAVE ATTEMPTED IN CONTACTING YOU ON THE NUMBER YOU PROVIDED WITH A NEGATIVE RESULT. THE NUMBER RINGS AND IMMEDIATELY GOES INTO A OCCUPIED MODE.

ON 11/19/2013, I FLIPPED MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE AIR BAGS NEVER CAME OUT. I REPORTED TO TOYOTA CORPORATION AND THEY NEVER OFFERED AN EXPLANATION FOR THIS.

SEAT BELT SAFETY LIGHT CAME ON AND NEVER GOES OFF. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ME THOUSAND OF DOLLARS TO FIX. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A SAFETY FEATURE. ALSO MY BRAKING SYSTEM HAD A LEAK AT JUST OVER 35000 MILES THAT COST ME 1300.00 AND IT WAS NEVER ON THE RECALL LIST.

MY DASHBOARD IS STICKY AND SEEMS TO BE MELTING HAS A GLARE IN THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE SIDE WINDOW CASING OVER AIRBAGS ALONG WINDSHIELD WINDOWS IS WARPED AND KEEP POPING OUT EXPOSEING WIRES.I BOUGHT THIS CAR ONE YEAR AGO AND AS I WAS TOLD IT HAS NEVER BEEN IN A WRECK. I DON'T HAVE MONEY TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS SO WHAT AM I TO DO?

THE DASHBOARD ON MY VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE MELTING, IT IS VERY STICKY AND SOFT TO THE TOUCH, I AM AFRAID IT MIGHT CAUSE AIRBAGS TO ACTIVATE PREMATURELY , OR TO NOT ACTIVE WHEN NECESSARY. I WENT ONLINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA CAMRY'S. *TR

I WAS RECENTLY IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN, I WAS STRUCK BY ANOTHER CAR OF THE DRIVER DOOR THE DOOR WAS BADLY HIT/DAMAGED, YET THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. AS THIS WAS A DOUBLE IMPACT ACCIDENT, AFTER BEING STRUCK ON THE DOOR, THE CAR WENT STRAIGHT INTO A HYDRANT POLE, STRIKING THE CAR DEAD CENTER AND CAUSING EXTENSIVE DAMAGE. AGAIN, THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. AS I AM NOT SURE OF WHERE THE SENSORS IN THE FRONT ARE LOCATED, I CANNOT REALLY SAY THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, THE IMPACT ON THE DOOR WAS SUFFICIENT FOR THE AIRBAG TO HAVE DEPLOYED. THE POLICE, EMT AND TOWING COMPANY ALL MADE THE SAME COMMENT...THEY WERE CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I ALSO SPOKE TO MY INSURANCE CLAIM ADJUSTER WHO ALSO STATED THAT AT THE VERY LEAST, THE DOOR AIRBAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. HE IS CURRENTLY STILL INSPECTING MY CAR AND CANNOT COMMENT ABOUT THE FRONT AIRBAGS AS OF YET. IF NEEDED, I DO HAVE PHOTOS THAT CAN BE PROVIDED. MY CONCERN IS THAT HAD I BEEN DRIVING AT A FASTER SPEED OR HAD IT BEEN A HIGHWAY ACCIDENT, THE POSSIBILITY OF A FATALITY WOULD HAVE BEEN THAT MUCH GREATER. WITH THAT SAID, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT THE AIRBAGS BE INVESTIGATED TO SEE IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE MANUFACTURING BATCH. ALTHOUGH MY SON AND I SUFFERED EXTENSIVE BRUISING, I AM THANKFUL THAT IT WAS NOT WORSE. *TR

NUMEROUS CRACKS OVER ENTIRE DASHBOARD THAT MAY CAUSE PROBLEMS IF AIRBAGS ARE CAUSED TO DEPLOY. *TR

IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY, AT FIRST (APPROX. 2011) THE DASHBOARD WOULD FEEL STICKY, AS IF SOMETHING HAD SPILLED ON IT. HOWEVER THE STICKINESS COULD NOT BE CLEANED UP. IT WAS IN FACT THE MATERIAL OF THE DASHBOARD MELTING. IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE AND SPREADS ACROSS A LARGER AREA, TO THE POINT THAT NOW (2014) THE DASH CANNOT BE TOUCHED WITHOUT A MARK BEING LEFT IN THE MELTED MATERIAL. IT LOOKS WET AND IS SO GLOSSY THAT THE GLARE IS IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THROUGH MOST OF THE DAY. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD, NOT JUST WITH THE BLINDING GLARE WHICH IMPAIRS VISION, BUT BECAUSE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS CONTAINED INSIDE OF THE DASHBOARD AND THE DASHBOARD BEING MELTED MAY AFFECT ITS DEPLOYMENT. *TR

THE DASH BOARD THAT HOUSES THE AIR BAGS SEEMS TO BE MELTING AND STICKY. I AM CONCERNED THAT MY AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. I TALKED TO TWO TOYOTA DEALERS AND NEITHER SAID THAT THEY HAVE HEARD IT HAPPENED BEFORE. TOYOTA 101 DEALER SAID THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY THE INTERIOR PROTECTION THAT PIERCEY TOYOTA APPLIED WHEN I BOUGHT IT 7 YEARS AGO. IF IT WAS THE PROTECTION SPRAY, I THINK THE STICKINESS AND MELTING WOULD HAVE BEGAN YEARS AGO. ALSO, THE PAINT ON MY CAR IS BUBBLING UP AND TOYOTA 101 IS BLAMING IT ON THE PAINT PROTECTION PIERCEY TOYOTA APPLIED WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR 7 YEARS AGO. *TR

DASHBOARD HAS BEGUN TO DETERIORATE. IT HAS A STICKY FILM ON IT THAT REFLECTS SUNLIGHT INTO THE DRIVER'S FACE. THE DASHBOARD HAS BEGUN TO BE VERY STICKY AND LOOKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO START TO FALL APART. MORE THAN AESTHETICALLY DISAPPOINTING IS THE SAFETY ISSUE. THE REFLECTION FROM THE DEFECTIVE DASHBOARD MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD AT TIMES. *TR

AIR BAG INDICATOR LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE AT LEAST 9/18/12. SEVERAL TOYOTA TECHNICIANS STATED IT WAS THE SQUIB CABLE IN THE STEERING WHEEL THAT NEEDS REPLACEMENT - OTHER TOYOTA REPRESENTATIVES STATE THAT IT IS NOT THE CABLE. I KNOW THE TOYOTA TACOMA (?) TRUCK WAS RECALLED FOR A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND THE DEFECT CORRECTED. I CANNOT GET A STRAIGHT ANSWER FROM TOYOTA IF THE AIR BAGS WILL ENGAGE IN A COLLISION - SOME TECHNICIANS SAY IT MAY OR MAY NOT. THE COST TO REPAIR WAS QUOTED TO BE SOMEWHERE AROUND $680.00. *TR

I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLIANT ABOUT MY DASH MELTING AND BEING STICKY. I LOVE THIS CAR AND THE DASH LOOKS HORRIBLE. I ALSO HAD TRIED CLEANING IT BUT THEN THE FUZZ JUST STICKS TO IT, TRY TO KEEP SUNSHADE IN IT AND IT STICKS TO IT, BUGS STICK TO IT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT THIS. *TR

WHEN I ENTERED MY VEHICLE, THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG COVER WAS HANGING DOWN. IT IS STILL ATTACHED AT THE BOTTOM, BUT HANGING FROM THE TOP.

COPY OF AN EMAIL SENT TO TOYOTA: I AM WRITING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT AN ISSUE THAT JUST AROSE WITH MY TOYOTA SOLARA CONVERTIBLE. IT IS A 2007 VEHICLE THAT I LOVE. I HAVE TAKEN CARE OF IT AND DRIVE IT JUDICIOUSLY. I ONLY HAVE 31,500 (APPROXIMATELY) MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND HAVE ALWAYS TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AT WHICH I PURCHASED IT FOR MAINTENANCE, ANY RECALL REPAIRS NEEDED, ETC. IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE, THIS VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT OF ANY KIND, NO MATTER HOW MINOR. THE AIRBAGS HAVE NEVER BEEN DEPLOYED FOR ANY REASON. NOW, FOR MY COMPLAINT: ABOUT A WEEK AND A HALF AGO, THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON THE DASHBOARD. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND IMMEDIATELY MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THIS EXAMINED. LAST THURSDAY, THE 17TH OF MAY, THE SERVICE MAN AT THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT WORKING, CANNOT BE FIXED AND THE SYSTEM NEEDS REPLACED. I ORDERED SAID SYSTEM SINCE I DO NOT WANT TO BE WITHOUT THE AIRBAG PROTECTION. HOWEVER? I AM VERY UPSET ABOUT HAVING TO SPEND $700 TO REPLACE THIS NEEDED SYSTEM WHEN NOTHING OCCURRED TO CAUSE THIS SYSTEM TO FAIL. I KNOW I NEED IT AND FEEL THAT I HAVE TRIED TO TAKE CARE OF THE CAR AND HAVE NOT ABUSED IT. I REALIZE REGULAR MAINTENANCE IS NECESSARY AND SOME THINGS OCCASIONALLY NEED TO BE REPLACED, SUCH AS, TIRES, BRAKES, ETC. BUT AN AIRBAG SYSTEM? REALLY? MY OTHER CAR IS A 2009 TOYOTA RAV 4 AND I HAVE ALSO TRIED TO CARE FOR THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG IN THE RAV 4 OR ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE HAD IN THE PAST (SINCE AIRBAGS WERE FIRST INSTALLED IN CARS). THIS REALLY, REALLY UPSETS ME!!! I AND MY HUSBAND ARE RETIREES AND ON A FIXED INCOME AND REALLY FEEL THE EXPENSE FOR THIS ITEM IS HORRIBLE AND WONDER WHY SOMETHING LIKE THIS ISN?T COVERED BY TOYOTA. *JS

ON TUESDAY 3/5/2013 WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET WITH NO STOP SIGN/TRAFFIC SIGNALS (I HAD THE RIGHT OF WAY) ANOTHER DRIVER EITHER FAILED TO STOP AT THE STOP SIGN OR STOPPED BUT DID NOT SEE ME AND HIT ME SO HARD THAT MY CAR WAS TOTALED ( THE BATTERY WAS ACTUALLY LOOSENED FROM THE ENGINE). MY CONCERN IS THAT NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. I REALIZE THAT THIS INCIDENT WAS MORE THAN A YEAR AGO BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS MAY BE A SAFETY ISSUE WITH AIRBAGS FAILING TO DEPLOY DESPITE HEAVY IMPACTS (THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS A LARGER OLDER WORK VAN). *TR

THE DASHBOARD IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS STARTED MELTING OFF, AND UNDER THE SUN'S HEAT IT BECOMES VERY SOFT, STICKY AND BRIGHT, AND WHEN THE SUN REFLECTS ON THE DASHBOARD IT CAUSES VISIBILITY/SAFETY ISSUES. ALSO, I'M AFRAID THE AIRBAG UNDER THE DASHBOARD MAY BECOME AFFECTED IF THE DASHBOARD CRACKS OR BREAKS. *TR

ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DASHBOARD BECAME VERY SHINY AND BECOME VERY STICKY AND HAS SINCE STARTED TO DETERIORATE. THE SHINE COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD REFLECTS AND CAUSES A HARSH GLARE WHICH MAKES IT VERY HARD TO SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. ALSO, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG SENSOR IS NOT WORKING, IT REMAINS OFF NO MATTER WHAT. NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED TO THE DASHBOARD MELTING BUT I HAVE SEARCHED THE INTERNET AND HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME ISSUE. *TR

THE FIRST INCIDENT, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON, I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND STARTED IT AGAIN IT STAYED ON AND WHEN I GOT ON THE ROAD, I HAD TO PRESS THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. THE NEXT TIME, IT DID THE SAME THING AND AFTER DRIVING A WHILE IT WILL JUST RELEASE AND THE BRAKES WILL BE BACK TO NORMAL. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS OFF. THE NEXT TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON I BROUGHT IT BACK BUT BY THE TIME THEY GOT THE CAR TO THE BACK TO TEST, THE LIGHT WAS OFF AGAIN AND THEY CAN'T GET THE COMPUTER PROGRAM TO GIVE AN ERROR MESSAGE AGAIN. THE THIRD TIME, I BROUGHT IT IN AND HE CAME TO THE LANE AND TESTED IT AND TOLD ME IT WAS THE BRAKE SYSTEM ACCUATOR, LIKE SO MANY OTHERS I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENS I HAVE TO PUSH THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO STOP, I'M AFRAID I MAY BE ON THE HIGHWAY GOING A FASTER SPEED WHEN IT HAPPENS AND HAVE AN ACCIDENT. AT THIS POINT, THE CAR HAS DISENGAGED THE AIR BAGS SO IF THERE IS AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS WILL NOT ENGAGE, WHICH IS ANOTHER CONCERN. $2200.00 TO REPAIR, NEARLY 10% OF THE COST OF WHAT I PAID FOR THE CAR. I DRIVE TWO TEENAGE GIRLS, MY DAUGHTER AND AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT WHO RESIDES WITH US AND I WORRY CONSTANTLY ABOUT THE BRAKES FAILING WHILE WE ARE DRIVING DUE TO THIS SAFETY ISSUE THAT I FEEL LIKE TOYOTA SHOULD FIX BECAUSE OF THE HIGH RATE OF FAILURES. I'VE BEEN SAVING FOR THE REPAIR BUT HAVEN'T GOTTEN IT ALL YET. *TR

THE DASHBOARD IS DISINTEGRATING. THE AREA ON THE FRONT PART OF THE DASHBOARD (CLOSEST TO THE WINDSHIELD) SEEMS TO BE THE WORSE, ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM IS SPREADING TO THE ENTIRE DASH. IT IS STICKY, TACKY, SHINY AND GOUGES EASILY. THIS PROBLEM IS CREATING A GLARE AND IS DANGEROUS. THE DASH IS BASICALLY MELTING. I WORRY ABOUT THE FUNCTION OF THE AIRBAGS. RECENTLY MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS COMING ON AND THEN GOING OUT FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I FEAR THAT THE DASH WILL BECOME SO UNSTABLE THAT IT WILL CAUSE THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. PLEASE HELP. I AM AFRAID FOR ANYONE TO SIT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF MY CAR. *TR

MY DAUGHTER WAS TRAVELING 55 MPH ON A 4-LANE HIGHWAY IN HER 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY LE. A TRUCK BEHIND HER ATTEMPTING TO CHANGE LANES REAR-ENDED HER AND CAUSED A CHAIN-REACTION CRASH INVOLVING 5 VEHICLES. THE TOYOTA SUSTAINED HEAVY DAMAGE TO THE BACK AND FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS. ALL OF THE TOYOTA'S AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE TRUCK'S AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED AS WELL AS THE BMW. THE SUV'S AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY (IT WAS AN EARLIER MODEL SUV). MY DAUGHTER WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT SHE SUSTAINED A SEVERE WHIPLASH INJURY TO HER NECK AND A BRUISED ARM. SHE LATER COMPLAINED OF PAIN RADIATING DOWN HER BACK. PLEASE REFER TO RECALL ID #06V096000 - AIR BAGS RECALL DATE: APRIL 03, 2006. WE WERE NOT INFORMED OF THE AIRBAG RECALL. WE RECEIVED A REPLY FROM TOYOTA SUGGESTING THAT THE IMPACT DID NOT OCCUR IN THE PROPER POSITION FOR THE AIRBAGS TO DEPLOY WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF AIRBAGS IF IT FAILS TO DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT AND THE SENSORS NEED TO BE HIT IN A CERTAIN POSITION? A COPY OF THE TOYOTA LETTER MAY BE PROVIDED TO THE NHTSA UPON REQUEST. PLEASE PROVIDE ANY INFORMATION CONCERNING COLLISIONS WHERE THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, CRASHING INTO AN UNKNOWN OBJECT. THE VEHICLE THEN ROLLED OVER THREE TIMES.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE INCIDENT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON FOR APPARENTLY NO REASON, TOOK CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT AN ISSUE WITH TOYOTA, I HAD TO PAY TO GET PART REPLACED, AFTER ALMOST $400 REPAIR COST, GOT VEHICLE BACK AND RUNNING. THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE PUT ON THE BACK OF CONSUMERS AS THESE ARE SAFETY PARTS THAT SHOULD LAST MUCH LONGER THAT AVERAGE PARTS OF THE CARS. *TR

MY DASH PANEL IS STICKY CRACKING AND IN A STATE OF DETERIORATION . MY CONCERN IS THAT IN AN AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT PARTS OF THIS CRACKED DASH COULD IMPACT MY EYES LIKE BROKEN GLASS. THIS VEHICLE IS GARAGE KEPT AND RARELY USED AS IT IS AT A VACATION HOME. IT DOES NOT SIT IN THE SUN OR A PARKING LOT. IT IS DETERIORATING ON ITS OWN. *TR

AT 59,000 MILES, THE CHECK VS SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON, AS WELL AS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER. AT THE TIME, I STILL HAD THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY REPLACED "BANK 2" IGNITION COIL AND CHARGED ME $100 DEDUCTIBLE. AT 70,528 MILES THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED. CHECK VSC SYSTEM AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AT THE TIME, STILL UNDER EXTENDED WARRANTY. IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH BAD # 6 COIL. THEY CHARGED ME THE $100 DEDUCTIBLE. AT 90,000 MILES (NOW) THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS. I AM ASSUMING IT IS ANOTHER BAD IGNITION COIL. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE 2007 CAMRY'S IGNITION COILS. I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP REPLACING IGNITION COILS BY A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, ESPECIALLY NOW THAT MY CAR IS NOT UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I ALSO HAD TOYOTA REPLACE CLIPS ON THE AIR BAG COVER ON PASSENGER SIDE IN 2008. THE PART STILL SAGS. IT IS DEFECTIVE. IT IS IN THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP COMPUTER SYSTEM THAT I BROUGHT IT IN AT LEAST TWICE FOR THE SAGGING AIR BAG COVER. THE NEW CLIPS DID NOT FIX IT. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY AND THE DASHBOARD IS MELTING. THE DASHBOARD TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD IS ALWAYS IN A LIQUID STATE AND THE REST OF THE DASHBOARD IS SOFT. IN THE SUNSHINE AND AT NIGHT UNDER STREET LIGHTS THE DASHBOARD REFLECTS A GLARE ONTO THE WINDSHIELD THAT IMPAIRS THE DRIVERS ENTIRE VISION OF THE ROAD. ALSO ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE DASHBOARD THE OUTLINE OF THE AIRBAG COMPARTMENT CAN BE SEEN. I BELIEVE THE GLARE ON THE WINDSHIELD IS A HAZARD AND DUE TO THE CURRENT CONDITION OF THE DASHBOARD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG MAY FAIL TO DEPLOY WHEN NEEDED. THE DASHBOARD HAS NOT BEEN TREATED WITH CHEMICALS THAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN CLEANED WITH A WET WASH CLOTH. *TR

I HIT A BMW. I WAS CHANGING THE STATION IN MY CAR AND WHEN I LOOKED UP I WAS TOO CLOSE TO THE BMW TO SUCCESSFULLY STOP BEFORE HITTING THEM. AS A RESULT, BECAUSE THE BMW WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED, A DOMINO EFFECT OCCURRED IN THAT THE TWO CARS IN FRONT OF THE BMW WERE ALSO HIT. THE DAMAGE TO THE BMW, THE CAR I DIRECTLY HIT, WAS A BACK BUMPER THAT WAS SLIGHTLY DE-ATTACHED FROM THE CAR (MODERATE DAMAGE) AND A THE FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED. THE AIRBAG IN THE BMW DEPLOYED.

MY INSURANCE COMPANY SUGGESTED I CONTACT TOYOTA, I HAD A VERY HARD TIME REACHING THEM AND THEY DO NOT HAVE A EMAIL OR WEB BASED WAY OF FILING THESE ISSUES. WHEN I FINALLY SPOLE TO A REPRESENTATIVE, THEY CLAIMED THAT THE ARIBAG FUNCTIONED AS DESIGNED. APPARENTLY THE RATE OF DECELERATION IS FACTORED INTO DECISION TO DEPLOY. I WAS BREAKING FOR ABOUT ONE SECOND WHEN I HIT AND DESPITE MY VELOCITY AT IMPACT ( 25 TO 35 MP) , THE FACT THAT I WAS SLOWING DOWN WAS A DECISION FACTOR NOT TO DEPLOY. I AM AN ENGINEER AND QUITE FRANKLY I AM SURPRISED WITH THIS CRITERION FOR DEPLOYMENT. THE PERSON ON THE PHONE AT TOYOTA COULD NOT ELABORATE FURTHER.

IN 2007, I PURCHASED A NEW 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY FROM TEJAS TOYOTA IN HUMBLE, TX. ON OR ABOUT AUGUST 18, I GOT MY VEHICLE SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP. THEY PERFORMED A MULTI-POINT INSPECTION, OIL CHANGE, TIRE ROTATION, AND CHECKED FLUIDS. VEHICLE WAS RENDERED IN GOOD WORKING CONDITION. APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK LATER, WHILE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION IN DOWNTOWN HOUSTON, I SAW THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME BEGIN TO COME TO A STOP. I SAW THE LIGHT TURN RED AND I HAD PLENTY OF ROOM TO STOP. I APPLIED THE BRAKE, BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. MY TIRES DID NOT SQUEAL, MY CAR DID NOT DECELERATE AT ALL, BUT I DID NOT SPIN OR VEER OFF IN ANY DIRECTION. I ALMOST ATTEMPTED TO GO AROUND THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN FRONT OF ME, HOWEVER, THAT WOULD HAVE LEFT ME IN THE MIDDLE OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC IN AN INTERSECTION. I KNEW THAT COULD RESULT IN A POSSIBLY WORSE SITUATION, SO I HELD DOWN THE BRAKES AND JUST PRAYED THAT MY VEHICLE WOULD STOP. AS A RESULT OF THIS VEHICLE FAILURE, I HIT THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME DIRECTLY IN THE REAR END OF THEIR MERCEDES BENZ SUV. STRANGELY, MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THIS TOO GREATLY CONCERNS ME. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS SERIOUSLY HURT, HOWEVER, IT CAUSED APPROXIMATELY $9,000 IN DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND I HAVE MEDICAL BILLS OVER $600. MY CAR WAS FIXED! RIDICULOUS! UNFORTUNATELY, NOW I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND I CANNOT RECOVER MY DAMAGES FROM MY INSURANCE COMPANY. *TR

AIRBAG FAILURE - 2007 CAMRY LE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW DUE TO ITS AIRBAG SAFETY CLAIMS - 7 AIRBAGS WITH ONE TO PROTECT THE DRIVER?S LEGS. NONE DEPLOYED. I TRAVELED ON THE HIGHWAY 50-55 MPH, A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THE CAR (BMW) IN FRONT OF ME AT RUSH HOUR ON A SUNNY DRY DAY. A CAR CUT IN FRONT OF THE BMW CAUSING IT TO BRAKE INSTANTLY, ALMOST COMING TO A STOP. DECELERATION WAS TOO QUICK. I WENT STRAIGHT INTO THE BMW AT FULL SPEED. THERE WAS NO TIME TO HIT MY BRAKES. MY CAR DIDN'T?T SWERVE OR DIVE. I WORE MY SEATBELT BUT LEANED FORWARD SLIGHTLY WHILE FIRMLY IN MY SEAT. MY CHEST STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL CAUSING AN INWARD DISPLACED SPIRAL FRACTURE OF MY STERNUM. I ALSO SUSTAINED A LARGE GROIN BRUISE WITH AN INTERNAL BLOOD CLOT AND CHEST BRUISE DUE TO THE SEATBELT. IMMEDIATELY I HAD DIFFICULTY BREATHING, GOT OUT OF MY CAR, LIED ON THE PAVEMENT TO CATCH MY BREATH. POLICE/AMBULANCE CAME QUICKLY, PROVIDED OXYGEN, TOOK ME TO A HOSPITAL. I REMAINED IN INTENSIVE CARE FOR 2 DAYS. THE INSURANCE INSPECTOR & BODY SHOP INVESTIGATED THE CAR AND WERE SURPRISED THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T'T DEPLOY AND COULDN'T FIND A REASON WHY THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY GIVEN THE DAMAGE. THE RIGHT AIRBAG SENSOR WAS BENT. MY CAR WAS DEEMED TOTALED. I?M UNABLE TO RETURN TO MY PREVIOUS WORK SCHEDULE (LONG HOURS, INTENSE WORKLOAD) DUE TO CONSTANT PAIN. I MISSED 2 WEEKS OF WORK. DUE TO THE FRACTURE I CANNOT DRIVE FOR 6 WEEKS. I REQUESTED THAT TOYOTA EVALUATE THE CAR TO DETERMINE IF IT WAS A VEHICLE-SPECIFIC DEFECT OR THE ENTIRE LINE (TO PREVENT FUTURE INJURIES). INSTEAD OF DISASSEMBLY AND COMPUTER ANALYSIS, TOYOTA ONLY REVIEWED PHOTOS AND SAID IT FUNCTIONED AS EXPECTED." THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND THE IMPACT STRAIGHT ON AND HIGH SPEED. IF NOT SUFFICIENT TO ACTIVATE THE AIRBAGS, THEN WHAT'S THEIR PURPOSE? THE VEHICLE IS IN STORAGE FOR EXAMINATION. POLICE REPORTS AND PHOTOS AVAILABLE. I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE NHTSA'S RESPONSE TO THIS REPORT. *TR

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW 2007 CAMRY LE AUTOMOBILE FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG ACTIVATION WEIGHT SENSOR IS INCONSISTENT IN BEHAVIOR AND UNABLE TO READJUST TO A NEW WEIGHT READING DURING A TRIP. MY WIFE WEIGHS APPROXIMATELY 100 LBS PLUS CLOTHES. ONE TIME OUT OF SEVEN THE AIRBAG SENSOR WILL NOT REGISTER HER AS BEING SUFFICIENTLY HEAVY TO ACTIVATE THE AIRBAG. I ONCE RESTARTED THE CAR SEVEN TIMES TO TRY TO GET IT TO REGISTER. I THEN MOVED MYSELF (174 LBS PLUS CLOTHES) TO THE PASSENGER SEAT, STARTED THE CAR WITH AN EMPTY DRIVER'S SEAT, GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND LET MY WIFE SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE AIRBAG CAME ON WHILE I WAS SITTING THERE, AND DID NOT CHANGE (TO OFF) AFTER MY WIFE REPLACED ME DURING THE 20 MINUTE TRIP. I HAVE HAD TO USE THIS TECHNIQUE EACH TIME THE SENSOR REFUSES TO TURN THE AIRBAG ON WHEN MY WIFE IS THE FRONT PASSENGER. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE INTO TWO DIFFERENT TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS TO HAVE THE SENSOR CHECKED OUT, AND THEY BOTH INSIST IT IS WORKING FINE. I SUSPECT THAT TOYOTA IS USING SUBSTANDARD PARTS THAT DO NOT DEAL WELL WITH MODERATELY HIGH EXTERNAL TEMPERATURES; SUCH AS THOSE NOT FOUND INSIDE A CLIMATE CONTROLLED MAINTENANCE BAY. I FEAR THAT IN HASTE WE MAY MISS ONE TIME IT DOES NOT TURN ON AND GET INTO A SERIOUS COLLISION THAT INJURES MY WIFE. *TR
