    I was parking on my church parking lot, pulling up to the building and barely moving. Suddenly the car accelerated and slammed into the church building. I then put it in reverse to see the damage, and it shot backwards into a car and the church van.

    Car has been in service for 4+ years since new, and registered about 90k miles. During the recent routine oil change, the gas charged hood lift support failed while the hood is up, and the hood came crashing down. When the hood was opened, it stayed up, no signs of problem. The failure happened well into oil change, when i was under the car, and there was nothing in the engine bay. So i was lucky, extremely. No…

It's not very loud but can be heard and very annoying. It's audible when car is in motion especially when stepping on the gas, brakes and when turning. Not normal for a 3 year old to have this intermittent and annoying creaking…

    Trunk lid wont hold up. It easily collapses if car is parked on the slightest of incline or is hit with a slight breeze. The trunk has collapses on my head several times while unloading groceries. My concern is the trunk lid closing on a toddler. My other two camrys, year 2001 and 2003, do not have that problem. Those older camrys seem to have stronger torsion bars and/or hinges and/or holding mechanisms. Toyota…

    I like toyotas and have two camrys. I previously had 3 toyotas. Usually they are very good, built well, upkeep good, last long and toyota stands behind them, usually. A little over a year of having the last toyota camry se, i noticed that the driver side of the bumper popped out. One good hit to the correct spot and it fell in place, for a while, then it would consistently pop out more frequently. I lived with it…

    I heard this persistent moderately loud knocking noise, which sounded liked it was actually coming from the front left(?) wheel area. As soon as you start driving, the knocking sound occurs, stops, and stops again. It is most persistent while driving over uneven street pavement. *tr
