“My 2011 Camry is super white and the clear coat has completely come off. I noticed all the shine was gone so I took it in for an estimate on a wax job and he informed me the clear coat is completely gone. I started to notice it about 2 years ago. When I wash my car, the white paint comes off. I also have a few rust spots that have started to form in different places.”

“On two occasions (august 2019 and october 27, 2019) when pulling in to my driveway I experienced unintentional acceleration by the vehicle. The second time the car rammed into a post on my house and the airbag deployed fracturing my sternum in three places.”

NHTSA complaint #11280360, filed 2019-11, 37,000 miles

“I was pulling out of the parking lot at bank of america in lithonia, ga and when I put the car in reverse, it accelerated and I couldn't stop it until it hit a light pole located behind the car. It was a loud impact but thank god my husband and I were not injured nor did we injure another person or their vehicle. It was only the grace of god that spared our lives because it was at 9:00 a.m. In the morning and a lot of people were coming in and out of the bank. …”

“We were hit at high rate of speed centered on the passenger's side front tire. The impact was pretty severe and the car has been totaled. No airbags in the car deployed and I was the passenger. I was injured in the crash.”

NHTSA complaint #11030635, filed 2017-09, 83,200 miles

“On march 18, 2020 I was driving on a highway on a steep grade during a winter storm and was part of an accident that involved hitting the guard rail causing my car to spin out and sustain a total loss of damage. Luckily I received no injuries but it was brought to my attention due to the extent of the damage that the airbags should have deployed and they did not. The vehicle is being held in a lot in case it needs to be examined. Toyota has stated they are not going to examine the vehicle unless they can also access the edr.”
