37 Steering problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2019

When you are driving down the road, sometimes the car would either veer to the left or the right and you can't control the steering wheel. You have to stop the car turn the car off and then turn it back on and then start driving again. Sometimes it will also accelerate on its own or not accelerate on its own even if you are controlling the gas pedal the car does what it wants. This is very scary because one time we almost hit a curb with the tires because you couldn't control the car it was going where I wanted to. The tires were out extremely fast I never have to pay for new tires because they wear out way before the warranty there like bald with in like a couple months sometimes even to just two months and they're bald and the alignment spine I've had it checked. I change all the fluids on time and taking care of maintaining the car I don't understand why it's doing this can you please figure it out?.

Failure Date: 11/29/2019

Hi , I'm reporting this steering problem cause it's getting worse and still no recall. I took it in and Toyota coded it on computer and no code came up. They never test drove it either. Cause it pulls to the left and right and a constant whining. It does that driving down the highway. Its starting to get scary. I don't want to loose control of this vehicle. It's my only one I got. Please recall my car. It's got 49,000 miles and 2015 Camry. This is over a 175 complaints for this steering problem. I shouldn't have to pay for Toyota to check it again. It's obvious sound now. Thanks.

41 Steering problem

Failure Date: 11/03/2019

Vehicle driving normally until 85000 miles. Sporadically now pulls hard to right or left at low speeds. Seems dependent upon wheel position when ignition is turned off. When the issue occurs, turning the wheels to straight position prior to turning ignition off seems to correct temporarily.

42 Steering problem

Failure Date: 11/03/2019

My 2015 Camry pulls to the right at a low speeds (5-35mph) the steering is very sensitive, and when I correct the position and let go of the steering wheel, it goes back to the right. However it does align after I reach a certain speed (40mph>), and the problem seems to disappear until the next morning or when I go somewhere and have to start the car up again.

43 Steering problem

Failure Date: 10/07/2019

Left my home at 7:55 am this morning to drive to work on city streets. Max speed 55. Arrived at work approx. 7 min later and parked. Left work at 5:30 pm to go home. On the way I noticed the steering wheel was misaligned and the car was pulling to the right at moderate speeds. Max speed 45mph. It seems to roll straight at speeds below 10 mph and pulls at speeds above 10 mph.

44 Steering problem

Failure Date: 09/09/2019

Wo weeks ago the steering wheel pulled to the right. Would not stop pulling until I turned off the ignition. Sometime turning the ignition off did not help. Yesterday steering wheel pulled to the left! would not stop until ignition turned off. Problem is worst at low speed, or stoped and then accerating slowly. City street is worst, and turing while accerating car pulls either left or right at random.

45 Steering problem

Failure Date: 09/03/2019

Steering problem- 2015 Toyota Camry steering wheel pulls to the right at low speeds, but align at highway speeds. Parked, turned the engine off and restart engine and start driving, the steering problem goes away and the wheel is perfectly aligned at low and highway speeds, turn the car on later and the steering wheel pulls to the right again while driving, this symptom has been going on for approx. 3 days. Looked up help online and found 'electric power steering (eps) electronic control unit (ecu)' and 'steering:electric power assist system' damages during manufacture process or manufacture part defect. This sporadic steering problem started at approximately 46,000 miles on the vehicle, which is only use to go to work and home and driven on avg 20 miles daily.

46 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/21/2019

At low speeds, the vehicle would pull to either the left or right. Dealership reported that the steering angle sensor and motor tested fine. Wound up replacing the car's battery and that corrected the issue. The battery light was not illuminated, and the battery tested within specs but was on the low end of acceptable. Apparently if the battery is low, but still within specs, it can affect the performance of the electric steering motor and or sensor and result in pulling in one direction or the other.

47 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/06/2019

Tl the contact owns a 2015 Toyota Camry. While driving 30 mph, the vehicle veered to the left and right without warning.

The dealer was not contacted. The manufacturer was contacted and provided Toyota case number: 1908190590. The contact referenced NHTSA campaign number: 15v144000 (steering). The failure mileage was approximately 54,000.

48 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/26/2019

Steering intermittently pulls the driving wheel to the left. Sometimes does and others no.

49 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/20/2019

I have 52,000 miles on my car. I never had problem with the steering until recently. While driving at speeds anywhere from 5-55 my car will pull hard to the left. When I pull over and turn the car off and restart it, it stops but after a little while of driving again it will pull hard to the right. It's always at random times and I never know which way it will pull and it doesn't pull at all times. This is a very dangerous situation that Toyota needs to address.

50 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/03/2019

The 2015 Toyota Camry sporadically pulls hard to one side or the other. This issue seems to be happening at slow to moderate speeds (between 5-50 mph). This just suddenly began to happen. With force the vehicle can be kept in line, but this issue is very dangerous. There was a previous recall on these vehicles for the same problem and that recall needs to be extended. I checked and this vehicles VIN is not in the previous recall.

51 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

My car was driving and my lights went crazy and wheels locked up I changed battery changed alternator and something still draining battery and it's the ecu for my power steering.

52 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/01/2019

My vehicle has less than 30,000 miles on it and last week I started to have an intermittent problem with the steering. When I pulled out of my garage I noticed the vehicle was pulling to the left as I proceeded down the street. I thought that the left front tire was going flat. Upon checking all tires the pressure was correct. I then took the car out again and the steering continued to pull to the left. I returned to home and parked the car. The next day I took the car out and it performed normally. I drove it for two more days without a problem. On the third day as I was driving I took a left turn and the car wanted to continue turning left. For the next several miles the car continued pulling left. I called my local Toyota dealer and asked if they had any idea what the problem was. They suggested the normal things tire pressure, alignment, etc. However a check of those proved not to be the cause. They said they had no idea what caused this intermittent problem. I searched the internet and found that other 2015 Camry owners had similar problems with the electronic steering. I also learned that there was a limited recall on the electronic steering component however my vehicle was not on the recall list. Today I drove the vehicle and it was normal. In the last week I have experienced three instances of the vehicle pulling sharply to the left and continued pulling to the left for several miles before it returned to normal operation. This all happened during city driving with speeds below 45 mph. This vehicle was involved in a minor front end collision four month ago. The damage was cosmetic including the front bumper grill and hood. There was no mechanical damage and the air bag did not deploy. The vehicle was repaired in a body shop and I have been driving it without problems until last weeks incident with the steering.

53 Steering problem

Failure Date: 05/07/2019

Can goes out of control.

54 Steering problem

Failure Date: 04/10/2019

I got Camry se 2015 in August 2015 and after 18 months battery totally out of function so I replaced battery now last few weeks I have issue with steering trouble shoooting. Steering doing buzzing weird sound and I contact to Toyota because I heard that 110,000 recalls those time for steering issue and they said as per your VIN number your vehicle not recall. I went to car mechanic and they said they are able to find a this sound. I am worrying about any my car is effected any manufacturer issue because within short time battery gone and now steering issue.

55 Steering problem

Failure Date: 03/09/2019

Twice now, within a few weeks, after pulling into my subdivision street the car has pulled severely to the right but after driving slowly around for a while and stopping and backing up the problem goes away. If the car were to continue to pull so severely to the right it would be unsafe and undrivable. I don't know if there is an intermittant problem with the steering or perhaps a sticking parking brake or sticking brake cylinder. I had a mechanic look it after the first time but he couldn't repeat the problem (but he only drove the car after it had already cleared up).

56 Steering problem

Failure Date: 02/26/2019

Steering suddenly started pulling hard to the left at slow speeds. According to the complaint forums, this is a very, very common defect. This defect is highly dangerous. There was a limited recall on this defect already. Why are so many people getting cheated by being excluded from the existing recall on this widely known dangerous defect?.

57 Steering problem

Failure Date: 02/01/2019

While driving car consistently pulls left then after parking and shutting the car off the car pulls right while driving. So far this has happened 3 times in a row right then left then right. The VIN is not part of the current recall.

58 Steering problem

Failure Date: 01/20/2019

After starting the car unexpectedly pulls left until driven for a while, then at next start it pulls right. After driving for a while the problem seems to disappear. The steering feels imprecise and just after starting the car actually pulls into other lane.

59 Steering problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2019

This started happening this week. If the front tires are pointing to the left or right when the car is first started, the car will pull hard to that side when I start driving down the road. I can turn the car, but the steering seems less responsive than normal. Pulling over with the front tires facing straight ahead, shutting off the car and then restarting the car seems to reset something in the steering and the steering will work normally. This has happened numerous times. There is something really wrong with the steering on this car. I checked and my VIN is not part of any recall. I have an appointment to have the dealership look at, but it's clear from reading other reports online that this is a common and unsolved problem with this particular vehicle.

60 Steering problem

Failure Date: 12/27/2018

Steering wheel locked while driving and eps light came on and then turned off.

61 Steering problem

Failure Date: 12/20/2018

While operating at low speed, the car started to steer to the left, requiring physical restraint to keep it moving straight. Without restraint, it would have gone into the curb. After the car was turned off, and following a 2 hour delay, the car was restarted and did not exhibit the problem. When I called Toyota customer care, they indicated that this VIN was not covered by the NHTSA recall notice about the same problem that affected other Camry's of the same year. This appears to be a very dangerous condition that Toyota is not addressing.

62 Steering problem

Failure Date: 12/17/2018

At random times the steering would start pulling either left or right pretty hard. It seems like if the wheel is turned in a certain direction when the vehicle is started that's the direction it would pull to. Toyota recalled over 110,00 of that year and model for an electronic power steering ecu and my vehicle isn't a part of that recall but the same thing is happening to a lot of other people. While driving it would be as straight as an arrow and then all of a sudden it would start pulling left or right. If I turned the car off and straightened the wheel out and turned it back on, the problem would disappear and then randomly it would happen again a few days later.

63 Steering problem

Failure Date: 11/21/2018

My 2015 Toyota Camry se loss power steering and veered left on a straight road . The stering was hard to control and had to keep turning right to go staight.

64 Steering problem

Failure Date: 10/17/2018

Tl the contact owns a 2015 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the steering wheel seized without warning. The contact stated that the vehicle exhibited the same failure as listed in NHTSA campaign number: 15v144000 (steering). The dealer (precision Toyota of tucson, 700 w wetmore rd, tucson, az 85705, 1-(520) 795-5565) and the manufacturer stated that the vehicle was excluded from the recall campaign. The vehicle was not diagnosed and remained parked due to the intermittent failure. The manufacturer was notified and expected the vehicle owner to have the dealer diagnose and repair the vehicle. The VIN was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

65 Steering problem

Failure Date: 10/07/2018

Electric steering system all of a sudden failed. I have to manually force the wheels to turn. Steering is a little better at high speeds but still has a limited range of steering, especially at slower speeds.

66 Steering problem

Failure Date: 10/01/2018

My 2015 Toyota Camry starting having serious steering issues. As of Monday, October 1, the steering wheel will randomly pull to either the right or left side and seems feel very loose while driving, as if there is no self sustained stability or resistance. I have researched, and found that the year/make/model of my car has a recall for failed "electronic power assist system". Unfortunately though, the recall only applies to a limited amount of vehicles. I have also noticed that there are several others logging the same complaint regarding the same make/model/year vehicle, which leads me to believe that this issue may very well stretch far beyond the vehicles fortunate enough to have been included in the recall. I believe it would be wise of Toyota and/or NHTSA, as well as beneficial to many Toyota customers (both current and future) to revisit the limited recall with the idea of expanding it to include more 2015 model Camry's. This is a hazardous, and potentially life threatening, issue.

67 Steering problem

Failure Date: 09/23/2018

Steering will stop at left or right position while driving instead of stopping at straight position. Restarting the car will fix the problem but will occur after few days. Same situation occured multiple time so got alignment done yesterday but problem still there. Searched online and saw other people having similar problems with 2015 Toyota Camry, but also mentioned that their VIN number was not on recall lost. Checked my VIN number and it was not in the recall list. This situation is dangerous and need to be fixed. I have experienced driving with this problem and it is not safe specially on highways.

68 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/18/2018

I filed a vehicle safety complaint last month in reference to my electric power steering symbol came on in my car. I didn't drive my car for 2 weeks because I didn't want to take a chance on having a crash. So on August 18, 2018, I decided to drive my car around the block to see if the light would come back on and the light didn't come on, but my steering wheel pulls from the left and the right if my hands are taken off the wheel for a minute. As I was driving around the block the wheel became very loosely to the touch of slightly holding it. It steer in the direction of left as I'm traveling straight up the road.

70 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/07/2018

I was fueling up my car, and upon me turning the key to start up my automobile, it didn't respond. I noticed the symbol on the dashboard that had a circle with a triangle drawn downward with a circular item at the top of the triangle symbol with an exclamation point symbol beside it. I also informed Toyota that my seatbelt didn't beep to let me that it wasn't clicked. I then notified my local Toyota company to see if I could bring my car in for a inspection. I was told that they didn't have any appointments until the end of the month.
