“After 3 days I finally got around to looking for the trunk lock - I.e . The key lock feature that disables the trunk release next to the driver. Only there isn't one! How could this be? My recently traded 2003 honda and older honda's I've owned all had this feature - I assumed Toyota did too - a detail that didn't loom large when initially reviewing the car because I assumed it had one. …”

“New car purchase. 40 year buyer of Toyota Camry vehicles. Apparently Toyota discontinued a key trunk locking feature included in all previous years and models of Toyota. They provide a valet key which keeps valets out of the glove box but not out of the trunk as was the case with all previous valet keys provided with my previous 3 Camry's and 2 corollas. Toyota dealer advise me that I could get a key locking trunk on the avalon a much more expensive vehicle. He also suggested I could get another manufacturers car. Honda has key locking trunks. …”

“The contact owns a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the trunk strut failed to keep the trunk open due to it being fractured. The failure recurred continuously. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer who stated that Toyota had chronic failures with the vehicles and that the rod assemblies needed to be replaced. The dealer stated that the fracture was due to the contact's upkeep of the trunk; however, the contact stated that he rarely used the trunk. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 3,000. Updated 5/12/15”
