The whole instrument panels lights and stereo begin flickering on and off and cuts out the stereo like turning it on and off when this happens.

The bluish greenish and grey lighting on the 2007 Camry radio was so bright that it was distracting at night. It I wasso bright that the people in the front seat were illuminated by it, and had to work very hard to scan outside the car since it completely ruined night vision. There was a dimmer setting, but it was tied to the dashboard lights. When dimming the radio one lost the ability to read the gauges. I wasvery concerned that this was a big safety issue. We called the local dealer and their service department as well as Toyota's customer care center. Despite the acknowledgement from the representative with her own Camry that it was a very bright light. Toyota will not work with us to change it in anyway, stating that it was a design issue without enough complains. They were not interested in seeking ways to address the issue.

My 2004 Toyota Camry has been in the Toyota dealership service department many times now for vehicle pulling the the left, and check engine light staying on. When driving on the interstate or on side roads all my instrument panel icons will light up, then start going out one by one with the check engine light going out. The computer codes were pulled with sensors being replaced. The computer was replaced as well. I still have a check engine light with all icons poping on and off. This started from the second day of ownership. I've requested Toyota give me a trade in and it was denighed. I've mailed in a letter showing the history print out from the dealership. I'm at the end of my rope here and I feel I have a unsafe vehicle. I'm not wanting my wife or son to drive this vehicle as well. How do I know the air bag or something elase will deploy?.
