The dealership replaced the actuator in the front passenger's door in june. Then, last monday the remote wouldn't work on 3 separate occasions. I called the dealership, they told me to bring it…

    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. So after research and much to…

    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…

    Driver side door does not open, as lock refuses to move. Initially it refused to listen to power or remote locking, but now it refuses to move from manual locking. This is a huge safety concern and should lead to an investigation and recall. Everything online points to faulty door actuators. Hundreds (if not thousands) of people are having this problem online. The year range is guessed to be 2002 to 2005 or 2007. 14…
