Radio/tape Cd Player Problems of Toyota Camry - part 1

Touchscreen is partially inoperative due to faulty calibration. Calibration started changing one year after purchase. Hasn't been a factor because I have been using the same phone. Recently purchased a new phone and cannot pair with the system. I do not have the abilty to use the phone via hands-free operation while driving this vehicle. This is definitely a safety issue. This defect is very common. Toyota has issued a technical service bulletin about it (TSB 0172-16). Toyota told me that the whole radio touchscreen assembly needs to be replaced. Because this is a safety issue there should be a recall and Toyota should fix this at no cost. (some portions of this complaint were copied from another perviously submitted complaint).

Apple car play freezes. Top of the screen is the only thing visible. The bottom half of screen is black. I have had this issue since I purchased the car in July 2018 . I have a 2019 se and Toyota keeps a saying it's the iphone. I have had the xr and the se currently. I have done a hard reset myself with corporate as well. After over 15 visits to Toyota they replaced the radio. Unfortunately it's still freezing.

My electronic control unit went out in three years . . . Not able to program anything or listen to radio. I understand that Toyota had a manufacture problem with models from 2014 and 2015. . . . Which my car falls in there. They are not acknowledging this problem and said they dont have a recall. However Toyota did send out notification to mechanics telling them there was issues with these ecus . Stanionary.

The steering wheel gets hard to move and appears that the electrical system turns off while driving, yet car continues going. But when this happens, steering wheel is hard to move and radio, a. C. Goes off while everything else is on motion and mainly while turning, it has happened multiple times. The first times about 2 years ago, but never again, then it started happening again this last 2 weeks. However, yesterday it happened more than 10 times in 1 hour, very scary. My husband took it yo the dealer las week and was told there is no recall yet, on the internet we found hundreds of cars Camry reported with same problem. Is scary.

This car has audio system problum. When you connect usb it keep loading on and on . The radio don't tune properly. Touch screen is soo insensitive. I.

The following problem is related to the malfunctioning of the navigation system and display controls in the radio console for the Toyota Camry 2012 se and other similar vehicles manufactured by Toyota. The buttons on the console stopped working around 2 years ago thus disabeling access to navigation, bluetooth connectivity and other functions. Due to lack of on screen navigation I have been forced to resort to using a mobile which is distracting to a driver and may lead to accidents especially in unfamiliar areas and on multilane highway near exits. Also as connectivity to the phone via bluetooth has been disabled calls cannot be recieved using the buttons on the steering wheel. On researching more on this topic I have realized that there are multiple vehicle owners facing similar issues with the same part of the vehicle for various vehicles that Toyota produces. The solution provided by Toyota needs replacement of the faulty console which costs between $800 to $1000. Multiple videos and comments requesting a cheap solution for this issue can be seen on the internet. Some suggestions included replacement of a part called communication extension module manufactured by "harman automotive part number 86100-yy050". I have been fortunate enough only to have had a few close calls due to distractions but this may be a concern and toyoya should come up with a cheaper solution for this issue rather than simply saying " you will have to pay a $1000 fir replacing the entire console that too when all other functions are working".

Motor oil is burning excessively I have to check the oil every weekend and the dealer says is normal, I think is not normal to keep adding oil when there is no leak. Dashboard is practically melting it was reported back in may because in the summer time it gets very sticky the dealer says it will take months or a year before they could fix it. Radio has a malfunction it was replaced back in 2014 because the screen turn black and not able to turn it on or off. In 2016 the radio is having problems again for the same reason and the dealer won't replace it anymore because the warranty is finished.

The vehicle was parked at my residence. There were 2 holes in the in the rear window;one was extra lrge and the other small. The rest was shattered, but still intact. The police investigated to see if there was foul play, but found none. They found rocks or or anything else in the car that may have caused the holes etc. The police report number is 152829-of. When I closed the door the whole thing caved in. The officers taped up the rear for me. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.

On Dec. 1, my radio/ipod system malfunctioned. I was not able to go from am to fm to my ipod. Toyota replaced the radio unit with a rebuilt unit. On Dec. 31, the entire system failed. The display screen is black; thus in addition to not having any sound system, the back up camera cannot display what is behind me.

The dashboard on my 2008 Camry has become increasingly soft and sticky over the past year. It is sticky to the touch and feels like you are touching the back of some kind of tape. Everything sticks to it and it is extremely hard to clean. This problem has gotten worse over the course of calendar year 2014. My car does stay outside, so probably does get more sun than if it stayed in a garage; however, a dashboard should not start to melt just because a car has been out in the sun. I have put no type of cleaner on the dashboard except for maybe an occasional wipe down with armorall (a product that should not cause this situation). The more the dashboard melts and gets sticky, the more I have noticed a bright glare coming off of it, which I am concerned could cause some visibility issues while driving the car. I kept my previous Toyota for over 10 years, and never had an issue like this. I believe this is a defect with this model car and that Toyota should do the responsible thing and fix/correct this problem for people who are experiencing the same issue.

I have a 2007 Toyota Camry and I purchased a extended warranty when I bought the car in 2007 that warranty expired August 1, 2013 a few days after it had expired my driver side visor will not stay up! I do not hang anything on it like cd holder or anything. It is driving me crazy because it makes it very hard to see the road when I am driving and I feel this should be recalled sense there has been multiple complaints for the 2007 Camry with this same situation and it is a safety problem for many Camry owners. The visor sometimes even hits me in the head when I try to get out of my car. I have had many issues with this car from day one and I am not very happy that this has not been recalled yet. Seems like Toyota does not care for the safety of their customers. Also on top of the visor my shock coil broke on the passenger side which the extended warranty did cover sense it happened before August 1st but now the strut is leaking oil on that same side, I brought it to the Toyota dealer in June 2013 and they told me they won't replace it because even though it is leaking oil it is not 100% broken yet and told me the warranty wont cover it until it completely blows! I told them I have a young child that I have to think of this safety along with mine and was shocked that even though it is leaking oil (which is not good) cause at any moment while driving it can bust that Toyota doesn't recognize it, its not like it will heal on its own so I feel it should have been replaced under my warranty that I paid almost $1000. 00 for when I purchased the car! I hope Toyota will recall the visor issue for their customers. I am going to contact Toyota directly on Monday to see if I can get anywhere with this safety issue.

My sun visors on both sides have messed up and now have both been replaced. My cd player also started messing up earlier this year. It says there's a cd in, but there's not. You can't load a cd or eject it. The service center at the Toyota dealership told me they don't see anything jammed in there and that I would be better off replacing it with an aftermarket stereo system b/c it would be cheaper and they would have to send my car off to have it fixed. Hopefully, I'm not the only one experiencing this problem and a recall will be issued!.

The vehicle dashboard is tacky and has been for some time. The reflection from the sun emitting off the dashboard impairs visibility while driving. Even wearing sunglasses does not fully deflect the sun glare from the dashboard making it difficult to see cars in front of me or traffic signals. I believe this issue because the dashboard is so hot, it affected my cd player which is no longer working, a cd is stuck in the player and the button to eject does not respond. Yes my vehicle can be inspected upon request. A few years ago, I inquired with a licensed mechanic what the issue was and he stated there was nothing I could do to remedy the situation. I contacted Toyota when I first realized the issue, they stated that there was a recall on the dashboard and the time had past to get it replaced. I informed them that I did not receive a recall notification and they could not tell me why. I am very frustrated that Toyota will not take responsibility for replacing my dashboard.

The visor on my 2008 Toyota Camry broke. Up until now I had no issues with the car except that the cd player only works intermittently. Ended up having to take visor off; could not drive with it like that.

2009 Toyota Camry. Consumer states several problems with vehicle to include electrical and mechanical issues the consumer had the vehicle inspected and it was determined there were several components that were defective such as the accelerator pedal, brakes, shocks, exhaust and cd player component and cable burning smell.

The cd player has problems loading the cd. Even though there is no cd in the drive - it keeps saying reading cd, not allowing the cd in. We had this problem only about 2years after purchasing the vehicle new.

1. Plastic strip on passenger side airbag keeps popping open. 2. The whole dashboard is sticky and melting; and the sun burned a spot on the front of the radio.

Rear speaker covers (2) cracked and collapsed inward with no outside forces being applied. Inquired at southbay Toyota, gardena, CA as to wether this was a parts defect, as I had read many online complaints concerning this problem. I was only given a replacement cost of $65. 00 plus tax.

Despite being regularly maintained, very well taken care of, not abused, and less than average use (average 6700 mi/yr), this Toyota Camry (purchased new from a Toyota dealership in torrance, California) has never worked properly for long. The factory-installed cd/cassette/radio system has been replaced three times, and now the cd player part yet again does not work at all. At only about 10000 miles, the air flow ratio sensor and manifold had to be replaced. Then there is the fact that about 95% of the time, the car will not start without the accelerator being depressed and held for 1 min, and even then the engine always sounds weak and only reaches about 500 rpm until pressing on the accelerator again. This has been going on since the odometer read 16603 miles. That was when the idle air control valve was first replaced. The situation seemed to improve, until 34800 miles, when the same problems with it not starting and being very weak resumed. At 35394 miles the idle air control valve was replaced for a 2nd time. At 47000 miles the same problems resumed. At 49180 miles, the car would (as usual) not start unless the accelerator was pressed for 1 min. Then it ran at only 500 rpm. As it was then being driven out of an alley, the engine suddenly spontaneously boosted to 1200 rpm, nearly causing a collision. This type of impetuous acceleration started frequently occurring. Toyota refused to help with this problem, only saying to use premium gasoline, which proved to not solve the problem. Now the entire electrical system of the car has collapsed three times at 72173 mi, 75009 mi, and today (2010-03-11) at 75024 mi. The dishonesty of Toyota personnel is seen in its refusing to address the problem and earlier in fraudulently canceling the maintenance program that was part of the purchase of the vehicle after the car was paid for and its refusal to respond to written communication.

The contact owns a 2009 Toyota Camry. Approximately one month ago the the contact stated that her radio display was not visible whenever she started the vehicle. Within a few weeks, the rear power windows began opening on their own. The contact was driving approximately 20 mph when the brakes were engaged; however, the vehicle would not stop which caused her to crash into a vehicle in front of her. There were no injuries. The vehicle was towed to a body shop who advised the contact that there was also an electrical failure since the vehicle would start. The repair shop made several attempts to start the vehicle and was unsuccessful. The manufacturer advised her that the recall repair will start in April and that she would have to wait until then. The contact stated that the air bags did not deploy. The failure mileage was 19854.

"melting" dashboard in heat is a serious problem. It gets sticky like duct tape and ultimately weakens and ruins the upholstery on the dash. Toyota needs to step up and correct this issue. It's a serious one.
