“My Camry started making noise when turning the steering wheel. At first it would come and go sometimes a few days in between. Now it make the popping noise all the time. I'm concerned about the safety of my family..”
NHTSA complaint #11092414, filed 2018-05, 154,000 miles“I own a 2010 Toyota Camry xle and I have noticed while highway driving, the car will drift into other lanes. I almost lost control when I attempted to maintain control of the car in my lane. My car almost swerved out of control and I took my foot completely off of the accelerator to regain control. This incident occurred when the car had less than 500 miles. I attributed that specific incident to a cross wind however I have experienced similar situations while highway driving. I am afraid to drive this car on the highway. …”
NHTSA complaint #10307948, filed 2010-02, 160 miles“I bought a brand new 2010 Camry le (4 cylinder), and it has already been through the set of factory-installed tires, another set of four michelin tires, a third set of four, and 2 more tires as of 10/27/2013, although the vehicle only now has approximately 74,000 miles on it. The tires curiously go uniformly bald on the front in less than 1/3rd of the life of the tire. Each company from which I have purchased new michelin or bfgoodrich tires for this Camry said this is highly unusual. They stated that the tires should not ordinarily be uniformly bald or be worn out so quickly. …”
NHTSA complaint #10549704, filed 2013-10, 34,000 miles“Opening the hood to add windshield wiper fluid, the hood release did not work, had to reconnect it. The power steering fluid was extremely low, have only owned car for 6 months, only 4000 miles on it. Sometimes when you let off the gas pedal, feels like the brakes engage, really slows the car down when coasting .”
NHTSA complaint #10315605, filed 2010-03, 4,000 miles“Drifting in 2010 Toyota Camry. Vehicle would drift left and right but not go straight. After several alignments and replacement of tires and wheels a new wrack was installed and that eliminated the problem. I am aware of 3 other 2010 camrys at the same dealership experiencing the same problem.”
