“I own a 2006 Toyota Camry. Recently the speakers sounded horrible. When I went to check them I noticed the speaker covers in the rear window were crumbling and falling onto the tops of the speakers. After I researched this issue I found hundreds of other people who owned camrys of various years who all have the same problem. Toyota's resolution is to replace the entire back panel for a cost of $700 that includes labor. These are $30 speaker covers that could be replaced for less than $75 installed. …”
NHTSA complaint #10237058, filed 2008-08, 76,300 miles“I was driving my 2006 Toyota Camry hybrid near shreveport, la using the cruise control, when I suddenly found myself off the road on the sholder. I applied the brakes to no avail. I lost control and rolled over twice. I had 22 staples in my head and a burn on my neck from the seat belt. I reported this to Toyota, but praised the safety features for saving my life and purchased a 2009 Camry hybrid when they became available. My family and friends encouraged me to report this because my experince was so similar to that of other Camry owners. …”

I could not stop the car as it entered the highway and thus I rearended a semi who never even knew that I hit him. Yet, greater than 2000.00 of damage happened to my auto.

From thence, I was told to put my car in neutral when I stopped at lights etc. It tried to runaway at least 20 times sporadically.. …”
