Body problems of the 2012 Toyota Camry - part 2

A rattle or popping noise coming from the moonroof above front passenger seat. On 2/7/13 a repair was made and was told that welding debris was found on a contact point in the moonroof. Repair stated that the moonroof mountings were cleaned and the moonroof was re-torqued. After the repair we heard a creaking sound on occasion when making turns and on rough roads but didn't feel it was bad enough to take back for repair. Now a year later on 3/3/14, the noise has returned and took it in again for repair. Was told that plastic shims had to be ordered and that they would call when they come in. I'll take my car in again when the parts arrive and let the service department re-attempt to make the repair again. This is a known problem with all 2012 Toyota Camry's. If you google moonroof popping or rattling on 2012 Toyota Camry's, you'll find that this is a recurring problem that Toyota is having with their moonroof. Hopefully, the next repair resolves this problem.

I was moving cars in the driveway when I pulled the Camry back in the brakes failed to stop the car and it struck the corner of the garage. I was not going fast enough to even trip the airbag. The dealer claims that there is nothing wrong with the brakes. I know that this same thing has happened in arlington, TX. What can I do to get the car fixed it is only 7 months old and still under warranty?.

I was merging on to the interstate when I heard a loud crash. I then heard a rushing wind sound and glass breaking. I slide open the interior sun visor on my sun roof just slightly and saw broken glass and a large hole in the sun roof. I realized that the glass on the sun roof had suddenly broken. I did not pass under an overpass and did not see any objects that would have cause the breakage. There were no trucks near me that could have dropped anything that could cause the damage. If I would have had the sun visor on the sun roof open at the time of the event, I would have had the broken glass come down on me while I was driving on the interstate which could have resulted in a severe accident. The sun roof is not covered under the warranty.

The trunk falls on your head, not enough tension to hold the trunk steady.

The contact rented a 2012 Toyota Camry. The contact was lifting a walker from the trunk when the trunk door abruptly fell and struck the contact on the head. The failure caused an intense, severe pain to the contact. Three days later, the contact began seeing ink spots in her vision, shooting lights, and very tiny light spots. The contact was seen by a retina specialist and was immediately referred to the emergency room. The contact was then seen by a medical professional and was advised that she was in need of emergency surgery to correct a torn retina and blood clots in the eye, caused by the impact of the trunk striking the contact on the head. The consumer also had a partially torn rotator cup in the shoulder. The rental company was advised of the failure and referred the contact to the manufacturer. The manufacture was contacted and provided no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unavailable. The VIN was not available.

Sunroof makes a rattling noise like a component is loose. Dealer could not find issue upon initial purchase.

While driving under normal driving conditions the paint on the lower plastic bumper has been hit with road debris and is causing small chipping in the paint. It seems the paint on the plastic parts is very susceptible to chipping. No chipping has occurred on the metal hood or body.

I have been experiencing a knock/tap/clunk sound coming from the roof in my 2012 Toyota Camry se, I have reported this issue to Toyota and the car has been at the dealership over 4 times to try to resolve the issue, the noise gets louder as time passes, it seams this is a structural problem and are not informing the customers as thousands of cars are being sold, with no TSB issued, taking off the headliner multiple times has created additional noises.

On Jan 31, 2012 after the lunch break, I was parking my car per usual in my office parking lot which I purchased on Dec 27, 2011(1 month, 4 days old). I completely slowed down and applying break and releasing to park the car in the right way. The car came to a stand still a little behind (by feet) from the lot. So, I thought of moving the car little bit forward to park correctly. When I stepped on acceleration with very minimal impact, the car suddenly accelerated (unintended) and hit the mobile trailer which is in front. There was damage to the car which costs $3000 to replace front hood, bumper, fix the front door which was damage. This incident also depreciated the value of my car, increased by insurance premiums which I am paying for till date. I had to pay $1000 out of my pocket. Due to the sudden unintended acceleration of the vehicle, I had to go through a very tough time. It all happened within a second and horrifying. Till today, I couldn't understand how this incident happened because I am very cautious in driving at all times. I have had driving experience for 3 years before this incident without any incident. If you need more information about this incident, you can contact me on my email, cell phone.
