2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID Vehicle Speed Control Problems

FOR SEVERAL MONTHS, THE CRUISE CONTROL HAD ONLY BEEN WORKING INTERMITTENTLY AND MY BRAKES SEEMED ROUGH. THE NIGHT BEFORE I BROUGHT MY CAR IN, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CAME ON. ON AUG 1, 2017, I GOT A DIAGNOSTIC AND IT WAS THE ABS ACTUATOR, BUT I WAS TOLD I ALSO NEEDED A BRAKE JOB AND AN ALIGNMENT SO I WENT AHEAD WITH THAT $1,000 JOB. THEY COULD NOT DIAGNOSE THE CRUISE CONTROL SINCE IT WAS "FUNCTIONING" AT THE TIME. I HAD ALREADY REPLACED THE ABS SYSTEM IN 2013 AND WAS TOLD THAT I MAY APPLY FOR A REIMBURSEMENT FOR THAT $3,600 JOB, BUT I AM NOW OUT OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY/SERVICE CAMPAIGN SO I COULD NOT GET REIMBURSED FOR THE CURRENT ABS FAILURE REPLACEMENT. AFTER MY BRAKE JOB AND ALIGNMENT, THE ROUGHNESS DID NOT SEEM TO IMPROVE AND THE CRUISE CONTROL CONTINUED TO MALFUNCTION. FOOLISHLY, I RATIONALIZED THAT THE BRAKES NEEDED TO BE WORN IN, BUT SOON MY CAR STARTED WITH A HIGH PITCHED NOISE AS I GOT IN AND OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES ALSO SEEMED TO "SLIP" SOMETIMES WHEN INITIALLY STARTING THE CAR. (FOOT ON BRAKE, START CAR, PUT INTO DRIVE, AND CAR WOULD START TO ROLL UNTIL I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE THEN REAPPLIED IT.) I WENT BACK TO TOYOTA HOPING FOR A MIRACLE AND THEY AGAIN SAID YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE ABS, BUT THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN HAD NOT BEEN RE-EXTENDED AND I WAS UNABLE TO AFFORD ANOTHER $3,600. SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE MY FAULTY VEHICLE OUT OF NECESSITY. ON OCTOBER 12, 2017, THE CAR BEGAN THE HIGH PITCHED NOISE AND THIS TIME IT DIDN'T STOP. I BEGAN DRIVING IN THE PARKING LOT SLOWLY (20 MPH) AND THEN THE BRAKES FAILED. WAS ABLE TO STOP BY PRESSING VERY HARD ON THE BRAKES. SINCE THAT DAY MY CAR HAS BEEN SITTING AT MY WORKPLACE UNUSED. OBVIOUSLY, THE ABS SYSTEM THAT WAS REPLACED IN 2013 (STILL AWAITING REIMBURSEMENT) WAS REPLACED WITH ANOTHER BAD SYSTEM. WE NEED A RECALL!

Mileage: 168,000

WAS DRIVING NEAR 10 MILES PER HOUR, CITY STREETS (ALL THREE TIMES) . I WENT TO BRAKE, THE CHECK VSC LIGHTS AND OTHERS WENT ON AND THE BRAKES FAILED. STEERING WAS DIFFICULT, CAR SEEMED TO SHUT DOWN. HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. *TR

Mileage: 118,075

WARNING BUZZER, BRAKE, CHECK ENGINE, NO CRUISE CONTROL, HARD BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP. I PAID TO THE DEALER TO DIAGNOSTIC, AND THE ABS ACTUATOR ASSEMBLY WITH LABOR IS ALMOST US$1,700. ONLY SOMETHING THE SOUND OF THE BUZZER AND THE LIGHTS TURN OFF, AND BRAKE PERFECT. BUT MUST OF THE TIME, PERMANENT NOISE AND LIGHTS ARE ON. TO USE THE CAR IS DANGEROUS AND NOISE NO GOOD FOR PASSENGERS. THE PROBLEM START WITH VEHICLE IN MOTION, IN THE CITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REVVED ABNORMALLY AND ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY EVEN WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 125,000. UPDATED 04/21/2016*LJ

I WAS DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT-LINE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH IN DRY CONDITIONS WHEN SUDDENLY "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WARNING INDICATOR DISPLAYED. BRAKE LIGHT, BRAKE ICON AND ABS ICONS ALSO ILLUMINATED. ABOUT 10 MINUTES LATER, SYSTEM RETURNED TO NORMAL WHILE STILL DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. *TR

Mileage: 64,950

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK MY DASH BRAKE LIGHT WENT ON. AT THE NEXT STOPLIGHT I CHECKED TO SEE IF THE E BRAKE HAD BEEN DEPRESSED, IT HAD NOT. ONE BLCK LATER WHILE GOING ABOUT 35MPH MY DASH LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE, THE ABS, SLIPPERY CONDITIONS LIGHT, RED WARNING LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ALL CAME ON AS WELL AS A WARNING TO "CHECK VSC" ALSO MY BREAKS WENT DOWN TO THE FLOOR AND I WAS UNABLE TO STOP RIGHT AWAY LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY PULL INTO A,PARKING LOT AND COAST TO A STOP. HAD I NEEDED TO STOP SOON OR BEEN GOING FASTER THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THIS WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN A CRASH. *TR

AS THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON 11/20/2014, "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" SHOWED UP ON THE MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY, AND THE MASTER WARNING LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, SLIP INDICATOR LIGHT, AND BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT (YELLOW INDICATOR) CAME ON. VEHICLE BRAKING PERFORMANCE SEEMED SLIGHTLY DIMINISHED BUT STILL SAFE TO DRIVE. ON 11/22/2014 I HAD TO MAKE A TRIP TO TOWN, AND NOT KNOWING THE SEVERITY OF THE WARNINGS, USED THE CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MILES PER HOUR, I INDICATED A RIGHT HAND TURN, AND A WESTBOUND VEHICLE AT A STOP SIGN STARTED TURNING FROM THE ROAD I WAS TURNING ONTO TO DRIVE NORTH ON THE ROAD I WAS TURNING OFF OF. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN TO MAKE MY TURN, THE BRAKE PERFORMANCE WAS EXTREMELY POOR. I WAS UNABLE TO SLOW DOWN TO A REASONABLE SPEED TO MAKE THE TURN AND HAD TO MAKE MY TURN AT A MUCH HIGHER THAN NORMAL RATE OF SPEED TO AVOID COLLIDING WITH THE DRIVER THAT WAS TURNING OUT IN FRONT OF ME. I FINISHED MY TRIP TO TOWN, ALLOWING FAR MORE BRAKING DISTANCE THAN NORMAL, AND RETURNED HOME AND LEFT THE VEHICLE IN THE GARAGE. I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND IT WAS WITHIN THE NORMAL RANGE BETWEEN MIN AND MAX. THIS MORNING I CONTACTED A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER FOR A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. *TR

CHECK VSC SYSTEM DISPLAYED AND ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, EMERGENCY BRAKE AND CAUTION LIGHTS ARE ON AND THE BRAKES ARE VERY SLOW TO RESPOND. *TR

WHILE DRIVING IN CITY TRAFFIC, A NUMBER OF INDICATOR LIGHTS WITHIN THE DASHBOARD INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ILLUMINATED INCLUDING THE "BRAKE" INDICATOR, THE YELLOW BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING INDICATOR, THE ABS INDICATOR, AND ONE OTHER (MASTER WARNING LIGHT?) . AT THE SAME TIME A MESSAGE DISPLAYED IN THE STATUS SCREEN WITHIN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER SHOWED "CHECK VSC SYSTEM." I IMMEDIATELY TRIED TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND SLOW DOWN, AND HAD TO APPLY SIGNIFICANTLY MORE PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL THEN TYPICAL. I COULD NOT SLOW AS QUICKLY AS I EXPECTED. TO AVOID RUNNING INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME I PRESSED EXTREMELY HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND WAS FINALLY ABLE TO STOP. I PARKED THE CAR AND TURNED IT OFF, THEN RESTARTED IT. THE SAME INDICATOR LIGHTS AND MESSAGE DISPLAYED. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME VERY SLOWLY, BUT CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTY BRAKING DURING THAT DRIVE HOME. LATER THAT DAY WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, THE INDICATOR LIGHTS AND WARNING MESSAGE DID NOT DISPLAY, AND THE BRAKES OPERATED NORMALLY. I WILL CONTACT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK. *TR

ON NOV 25TH, 2013 AROUND 9:30PM I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. A COUPLE OF MINUTES IN TO MY DRIVING MY BRAKE STOPPED FUNCTIONING. I TRIED TO SLAM THE BRAKE, BUT THE CAR DIDN'T STOP. THANKFULLY, THERE WEREN'T LOTS OF CAR ON THE ROAD. I DROVE ON THE SIDE GRASS FOR FEW HUNDRED YARDS AND FINALLY MANAGED TO STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE NEXT DAY, I TOOK IT TO THE NEAR BY SHOP AND THEY SUGGESTED THAT I SHOULD REPLACE THE BRAKE SINCE THE CAR WASN'T ABLE TO STOP. AFTER SPENDING $650 TO REPLACE THE BRAKES AND BRAKE PADS, I LEFT THE SHOP. AFTER 6 MONTHS THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I'VE TO REPLACE ABS BRAKE ACTUATOR AND QUOTED ME AROUND $3700. I DIDN'T HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY TO SPEND, SO I STARTED SEARCHING FOR ALTERNATIVE ON THE INTERNET. THAT IS WHEN, I RAN IN TO THIS SITE WHERE PEOPLE ARE REPORTING THE ISSUES THAT THEIR 2007-2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID ARE HAVING. I WOULD LIKE TOYOTA TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AND FIX MY CAR. I NEED A WAY TO GET AROUND AND GO TO WORK. THIS IS MY ONLY SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION AND I NEED IT ON THE ROAD AGAIN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THANK YOU! *TR

I HAVE REALLY GOOD DRIVING RECORD WITH NO ACCIDENT & NOT EVEN 1 TICKET IN THE PAST 20 YEARS BEFORE THESE 2 ACCIDENTS & WE'VE HAD THE CAR FOR 6.5 YEARS. 1ST ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON 4/11/14 AT 9:14AM. TRAFFIC WAS BAD DURING THE MORNING RUSH HOUR SO ALL CARS WERE TRAVELLING SLOWLY. I WAS ON FWY 5 HEADING S TO THE FWY 55 S RAMP IN CA. MATRIX (1ST CAR) SUDDENLY STOPPED WHILE ALL OTHER CARS WERE STILL MOVING FORWARD. EQUINOX (2ND CAR) STOPPED & I IMMEDIATELY SLAMMED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. HOWEVER, I DIDN'T FEEL THE CAR STOPPING AT ALL & I THOUGHT I HEARD THE ENGINE ROARING, BUT THEN THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY MY ILLUSION. SINCE THE DAMAGE WAS ONLY BUMPERS & HEADLIGHTS WE JUST LET INSURANCE HANDLED IT & MOVED ON WITH OUR LIFE. HOWEVER, I DID START DRIVING EXTRA CAREFULLY AFTER THIS INCIDENT. 2ND ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON 6/23/14 AT 8:40AM. AGAIN, TRAFFIC WAS BAD DURING MORNING RUSH HOUR. I WAS ON JAMBOREE IN IRVINE, CA HEADING TOWARDS NEWPORT BEACH. I WAS WAITING FOR THE RED LIGHT ON JAMBOREE AT THE 405 N BOUND EXIT INTERSECTION IN THE 2ND LANE FROM LEFT (TOTAL 4 LANES). THERE WERE ALREADY 2 ACCIDENTS AROUND THERE & LIGHT HAD JUST TURNED GREEN. ALL CARS WERE MOVING VERY SLOWLY DUE TO ACCIDENTS NEARBY. YUKON HAD ALREADY PULLED INTO THE INTERSECTION & SUDDENLY STOPPED. I WAS STILL BEHIND THE LINE WITH SOME DISTANCE & SLAMMED ON BRAKE IMMEDIATELY BUT DIDN'T FEEL THE CAR STOPPING UNTIL HITTING YUKON. I HEARD BRAKE SOUND AND ENGINE ROARING AGAIN WHILE MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THIS TIME THE ROARING SOUND WAS CLEAR COMPARE TO APRIL ACCIDENT. IT WAS AT OVER-PATH OF FWY 405 SO THE ROAD WAS A BIT GOING UPHILL. HYBRID DOES NOT START FAST AT ALL SO I AM SURE MY SPEED WAS VERY SLOW. CAR IS DETERMINED AS TOTALED BECAUSE ENGINE WENT UNDER YUKON'S SPARE TIRE HANGING IN THE BACK. TOYOTA SAID HYBRID HAS A BLACK BOX THAT RECORDS DATA. WANT TO GET ACCESS TO THE ENCRYPTED DATA IF POSSIBLE. *JS

I PURCHASED A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID WITH 85,000 MILES IN JULY 2ND OF 2014. SINCE I GOT THIS CAR FROM DEALER IN A AUCTION FIRST I WENT CLOSES TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER TO CHANGE THE OIL AND DO THE 85000 MILE SERVICE SO I CAN KEEP THE CAR PROTECTED. AND THEY TALL ME PERFORM THE MAINTAIN ON IT BUT THEY IS WANING LIGHT FOR ABS AND ANOTHER WANING CHECK VSC SYSTEM THEY ASSUME MAY BE FAULT IN COMPUTER SYSTEM WITCH REPAIR COST AROUND $3000 AND THE ADVICE ME TO RETURN THE CART DEALER. I SPEND ALL MY MONEY IN THE BUYING THE CAR SO CAN'T SPEND ANY MORE MONEY. THEN I CONTACT THE DEALER BUT TO RETURN THE CAR BUT THEY DON'T ACCEPT THE CAR BACK. SINCE I DIDN'T HAVE ANY CHOICE I START DRIVING THE CAR BACK TO HOME. SUDDENLY NONSTOP BUZZER SOUND CAME UP ALONG WITH THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" /BRAKE, HAZARD, WARNING, AND ABS LIGHTS ITS MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY AND I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. I TRY TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL; IT WAS JUST LIKE A ROCK NOT MOVING A BIT I THOUGHT I GONE DIE. LUCKILY I ABLE BRING IT TO SAFE PLACE. NOW CAR IS SITTING IN MY HOME DON'T KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT NEXT. I RESEARCH THE PROBLEM IN THE INTERNET, NOTICE SO MANY-MANY 07- 08 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID CUSTOMERS HAVE THE EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM. SINCE MANY 07- 08 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID CUSTOMERS EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM SO I HOPE TOYOTA RECALL THE ABS ACCUMULATOR AND FIX BEFORE ANYBODY GET DIE OR BE CRITICALLY INJURED. THANK YOU *TR

I HAVE A 2008 TCH WITH 53K MILES AND THE VSC WARNING LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT AND SEVERAL OTHERS FIRST APPEARED ON A COLD MORNING DURING A CROSS COUNTRY TRIP FROM CA TO NC. A COMPLETE LOSS OF BREAKING AT 40 MPH IS A SCARY THING!!! BROUGHT IT TO DEALER. CLEARED THE CODE. WELL, ABOUT A WEEK LATER IN RALEIGH THE VSC WARNING LIGHT WAS ON WHEN WE ARRIVED AND THE DEALER RECORDED CODE C1391, ABNORMAL PRESSURE INSIDE THE ACCUMULATOR. THE FIX, A NEW ABS ACCUMULATOR- WITH PARTS LABOR AND TAX JUST UNDER $2700- BECAUSE THE PART IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY- ONLY UP TO 3/36000! SEEMS LIKE IT SHOULD BE SINCE THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH TCH'S. NOW I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO OR WHO TO BELIEVE!!! BECAUSE I HAD NO CHOICE, I SHELLED OUT AND HAD TOYOTA OF APEX, NC REPLACE THE PART. MAN WAS I MAD! TOYOTA DIDN'T STEP UP AND OWN THIS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE PART. SMARTLY,K I ALSO PURCHASED AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FROM A VENDOR. WELL WOULDN'T YOU KNOW ABOUT 14 MONTHS LATER MY WIFE IS DRIVING WITH THE KIDS AND ALMOST WRECKED WHEN THE BRAKES WENT OUT, THIS TIME WITH NO WARNING! DIAGNOSIS? C1931 AGAIN!!!! I COULDN'T BELIEVE. THE SAME DEALER TOYOTA OF APEX, NC TOLD ME THE PART WAS NOW $3200. I HAD THEM PULL THE HISTORY. THEY SEEMED GENUINELY SHOCKED. EVEN PUT ME IN A LOANER FOR SEVERAL DAYS AND PROMISED TOYOTA WOULD TAKE CARE OF THIS ONE. HA! SHAME ON TOYOTA AGAIN- THEY SAID SORRY. PART OUT OF 12 MONTH WARRANTY... HERE'S YOUR BILL FOR 3200. AT THIS POINT, I KNEW IT WAS TIME TO GET RID OF THIS DEFECTIVE CAR BEFORE SOMEONE GOT SERIOUSLY INJURED OR EVEN WORSE, KILLED. TWO TIMES TOYOTA REFUSED TO ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY, I'M SURE IT WILL CATCH UP TO THEM EVENTUALLY. *TR

Mileage: 57,000

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD. I HAD TO PUSH VERY HARD ON THE BREAKS TO MAKE THE CAR STOP AND LUCKILY I DID NOT CRASH INTO ANYONE. IT'S HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, ON THE FREEWAY, EVEN WHEN I WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE! I TURNED THE ENGINE ON AND BEFORE I PUT IT IN DRIVE OR REVERSE, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WOULD DISPLAY AND THE BREAKS WOULD FAIL. NOW THE NEW PROBLEM IS EVERY TIME I STEP ON THE BREAKS, MY CAR 'BARKS' OR 'CHIRPS' REPEATEDLY AT ME. I CAN PUSH LIGHTLY AND GET LESS OF A BARK BUT FOR THE MOST PART, IT TAKES A GREAT DEAL OF EFFORT TO STOP THE VEHICLE. MY FATHER IS A MECHANIC AND HE'S HOOKED UP THE COMPUTER TO THE CAR BUT SINCE THE 'CHECK VSC SYSTEM" IS NOT DISPLAYED WHEN IT'S HOOKED UP, HE CAN'T TELL WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. IN AN UNRELATED COMPLAINT, WHEN THE WEATHER GETS HOT, AROUND 80 DEGREES, THE STEREO SYSTEM GOES BLANK AND SPITS OUT ALL OF MY CDS AND WILL NOT TURN ON. THEN IT WILL HAVE LINES ACROSS THE SCREEN AND DISPLAY "SCAN" ON THE UPPER RIGHT HAND CORNER. IT WILL NOT TURN OFF OR ON UNLESS I USE THE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. AFTER IT COOLS, IT WILL WORK AGAIN. *TR

Mileage: 97,000

VSC AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS AND BUZZER CAME ON UPON JUST STARTING CAR. FRONT DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE CALIPER LOCKER UP. DRIVERS SIDE BRAKE LOCKED UP. DEALER WANTS 2800 FOR REPAIR. IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET, IT APPEARS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO LOTS OF OTHER 07 -11 CAMRY HYBRID OWNERS.THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY WARRANTY. HOW DO I FILE A FORMAL COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA??? *TR

MY BRAKES FAILED THE FIRST TIME ON 1/29/14 ON MY WAY TO WORK. LUCKILY, I WASN'T GOING TOO FAST, WHICH ALLOWED ME TO SAFELY PULL OVER ONTO ONE OF THE SIDE STREETS. MY CAR DISPLAYED THE ERROR MESSAGE: "CHECK VSC SYSTEM." I CALLED AAA, AND ONE OF THEIR TOW TRUCK DRIVERS SUGGESTED THAT RATHER THAN TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, I USE A DIFFERENT PLACE (WHICH HE CLAIMED WAS AAA APPROVED; IT WASN'T). NEARLY $500 LATER ($472.94 TO BE EXACT), MY CAR SEEMED FINE FOR ABOUT A MONTH. THEN ON 2/26/14, THIS TIME WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, MY BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. I GOT THE SAME MESSAGE AS BEFORE: "CHECK VSC SYSTEM." THIS TIME, I ASKED TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. SUPPOSEDLY, NOBODY AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS AWARE OF A RECALL FOR THIS SYSTEMATIC PROBLEM. HOWEVER, I HAVE SINCE FOUND OUT THAT 59 OTHER COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED FOR THIS VERY ISSUE. THAT'S ONLY THROUGH JANUARY; I CAN IMAGINE HOW MANY OTHER TIMES THIS HAPPENED THAT WERE NOT REPORTED. I ATE THE COST (THIS TIME UPWARDS OF $3,800) TO HAVE THE ENTIRE VEHICLE SUSPENSION CONTROL (VSC) UNIT COMPLETELY REPLACED. THIS MORNING, 4/21/14, I TURNED ON MY CAR & WAS GREETED WITH THAT OLD FAMILIAR MESSAGE: "CHECK VSC SYSTEM." I'M AFRAID TO TRY DRIVING MY CAR TO WORK IN THIS CONDITION, AND MEANWHILE I'VE SUNK OVER $4,000 INTO "REPAIRS" THAT DO NOT SEEM TO LAST. I ALWAYS THOUGHT TOYOTAS WERE SUCH GOOD, RELIABLE CARS. HOWEVER, I'M NOT SURE IF I WOULD BUY ANOTHER ONE AT THIS RATE. MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 100K MILES AND I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS HEADACHE. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE TOYOTA ACTUALLY STEPS UP & ISSUES A RECALL?? *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED FORWARD CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO THE WALL IN HIS GARAGE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT STALL. THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE WITHIN ONE WEEK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND ADVISED TO TAKE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000. *TR

Mileage: 28,000

WHILE DRIVING, THE "CHECK VSC SYSTEM" WARNING CAME ON, AN IMMEDIATE POWER REDUCTION OCCURRED AND SOME BRAKE PRESSURE LOSS. DEALERSHIP SAID THE SKID CONTROL ECU ($1800) AND ABS ACTUATOR ($2900) WERE BOTH BAD. AFTER REPLACING BOTH, WARNING LIGHTS ARE STILL ON. PROBLEM NOT RESOLVED YET. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON THE 405 FREEWAY NORTH FROM LONG BEACH TO WEST LOS ANGELES, WHEN THE VSC SYSTEM LIGHTS CAME ON. I TOOK THE CAR TO SANTA MONICA TOYOTA, WHERE I HAD ORIGINALLY PURCHASED IT, AND WAS TOLD THAT THE BRAKE ACTUATOR SYSTEM WAS LEAKING AND THE REPAIR COST WAS $3800, NO ONE THERE INFORMED ME THAT THIS PARTICULAR PART WAS BEING INVESTIGATED FOR POSSIBLE DEFECTS. AFTER THE CAR WAS LOOKED AT SANTA MONICA TOYOTA, THE BRAKES STARTED CLUCKING AND GRABBING. AFTER MUCH HEATED DISCUSSION, CORPORATE TOYOTA AGREED TO PAY $1000 TOWARD THE REPAIR WHICH WAS DONE AT MARINA DEL REY TOYOTA. I BELIEVE THAT THE SYSTEM IS DEFECTIVE. NO SYSTEM SHOULD FAIL IN SO MANY CARS OF THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR. TOYOTA SHOULD RECALL THE SYSTEM AND COMPENSATE MYSELF AND OTHER TOYOTA OWNERS. *TR

Mileage: 86,200

WAS IN PARK IN PARKING LOT, SWITCHED TO DRIVE AND IMMEDIATELY THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THEN THE "CHECK VSC" MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE COMPUTER. PROCEEDED TO BUSY ROAD AND TURN LEFT, ONLY TO FIND OUT I HAD NO BRAKING POWER; OTHER THAN THE PARKING BRAKE. WITH SOME LUCK AND THE PARKING BRAKE I WAS ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO A CONTROLLED STOP. FORTUNATELY IT WAS 5AM ON MY WAY TO WORK AT THE HOSPITAL, IF THERE WAS PEOPLE OR OTHER VEHICLES THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO STOP THE VEHICLE SAFELY. *TR

Mileage: 135,000

ABOUT TO LEAVE FROM A PARKING LOT AT NIGHT, TURNED VEHICLE ON. RELEASED EMERGENCY BRAKE. PUT CAR IN REVERSE TO BACK OUT. WHILE BACKING OUT, NOTICED CAR NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY. STOPPED BACKING OUT AND REPARKED. NOTICED ENGINE DASH LIGHTS WERE ON:"CHECK VSC SYSTEM", ABS, EMERGENCY PARKING LIGHT NONRESPONSIVE, TRIANGULAR WARNING LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. LOOKED INTO MANUAL TO READ AND SAID TO TAKE CAR IN. DROVE CAR AROUND PARKING LOT TO SEE HOW CAR HANDLED. CAR BRAKED BUT PUMPED ON OWN AFTER BRAKE TAPPED EACH TIME. BRAKING ABILITY AND FLEXIBILITY COMPROMISED. BEING SERVICED NOW. *TR

MY CAR WAS JUST REPAIRED 6 MONTHS AGO FOR THIS SAME ISSUE AT A COST OF OVER $3,000!!!! TODAY MY HUSBAND AND SON WERE IN THE CAR WHEN THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE CHECK VSC WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN!! LUCKILY THEY WERE NOT IN AN ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THE FAILED BRAKES. *TR

Mileage: 64,547

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN I FELT A NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE IN THE STEERING AND BREAKING OF MY CAR. AT THE SAME TIME A LOT OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS CAME ON INCLUDING: BRAKE, ABS, VSC WARNING, CHECK ENGINE, TPMS. AFTER I FELT THIS CHANGE, IT WAS VERY HARD TO BRAKE. IT TOOK ME LONGER TO STOP AND I HAD TO USE MORE PHYSICAL FORCE TO DO SO. THIS WAS EXTREMELY SCARY CONSIDERING HOW FAST I WAS GOING AND THE FACT THAT I HAD MY CHILD IN THE CAR WITH ME. I TOOK MY CAR STRAIGHT TO A MECHANIC WHO CLEARED THE CODE. *TR

Mileage: 148,000

WHILE CRUISING ABOUT 35 MPH THE FOLLOWING PANEL LIGHTS CAME ON: BRAKES, ABS, ERROR MESSAGE- VSC (VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL). A WHIRRING SOUND EMANATED FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WHICH INTENSIFIED WHEN I DEPRESSED BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKES WEAKLY RESPONDED TO PEDAL PRESSURE. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE SLOWLY TO A PARKING LOT WHERE I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I NOTE THAT THE BRAKE RESERVOIR WAS FULL AND DETECTED NO LEAKING FLUIDS. I HAD NO WARNING OF THIS FAILURE. THE CAR HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY BY THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

Mileage: 85,000

BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, THEN WARNING TO CHECK VSC SYSTEM, 2 OTHER WARNING LIGHTS AND ABS LIGHT CAME ON, BRAKING BECAME DIFFICULT WITH RESISTANCE WHEN APPLYING BRAKE, PULSING AND LURCHING FORWARD WHEN FOOT ON BRAKE STOPPED AT STOPLIGHT. THIS IS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY. *TR

Mileage: 57,832

WHILE DRIVING IN COLD WEATHER THE CHECK VSC SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON AND THE POWER BRAKES CEASE TO FUNCTION. I HAVE TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL VERY HARD IN ORDER TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. TOYOTA CLAIMS THAT THIS IS CAUSED BY A FAULTY ACCUMULATOR AND GIVES THE ERROR CODE C1391. I CREATED A WEBSITE TO SEE IF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AND TO MY SURPRISE I HAVE QUITE A FEW COMMENTS POSTED TO MY GUESTBOOK. YOU CAN VIEW THE SITE AT HTTP://CHECKVSCSYSTEM.COM. THIS PART SHOULD NOT BE DEFECTIVE IN A VEHICLE WITH LOW MILEAGE AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE HAD TIMES WHERE I AM DRIVING AND THE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE BRAKES CEASE TO FUNCTION PROPERLY AND HAVE ALMOST REAR ENDED A CAR. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED WITH TOYOTA SO THAT NO ONE GETS INJURED. *TR

MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING OUR 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID ON CARY PARKWAY IN CARY, NC. I WAS AT THE WHEEL AND COASTING WITH NO FOOT ON THE GAS OR BRAKE AND NOTICED THE ENGINE ACCELERATING SLIGHTLY. IT WAS NOT A SCARY SITUATION BECAUSE THE ROAD WAS OPEN IN FRONT OF ME AND THE SPEED WAS NOT FAST BUT I COULD TELL THE ENGINE WAS NOT COASTING AND SLOWING DOWN AS EXPECTED AND I TOLD MY WIFE. I TAPPED THE GAS PEDAL AND THEN THE CAR STARTED TO COAST AND SLOW AS EXPECTED. IT HAS NEVER HAPPENED AGAIN AND I KNOW IF I REPORTED IT TO MY DEALER THEY WOULD TELL ME THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG SO I HAVEN'T BOTHERED. IT FELT LIKE THE THROTTLE WAS MECHANICALLY STUCK. I SHOULD MENTION THAT THIS CAR HAD A DEFECTIVE WELD IN THE RIGHT FRONT AND WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW AND STARTED CREAKING, THE DEALER HAD IT TAKEN TO A BODY SHOP AND A BAD WELD UNDER THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER WAS REPAIRED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN, I PUSHED ON THE ACCELERATOR AND GOT NOTHING, THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE CAR COMPLETELY STALLED. THE COMPUTER SCREEN SAID TO "CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM AND CHECK VSC SYSTEM". I SAT FOR AWHILE AND TRIED TO RESTART THE CAR, IT DID START BUT IT WOULD MOVE, AND THEN IT DISPLAYED ON THE COMPUTER, " PUT CAR IN P" AND AGAIN THE MESSAGE READ CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM AND VSC SYSTEM. THE TOW TRUCK DRIVER GOT INTO MY VEHICLE TO PUT IT ON THE ROLL BACK AND HE NOTICED THAT THE COMPUTER WAS SAYING THE SAME THING TO HIM, SO I KNOW I WASN'T GOING CRAZY. THE CAR WAS THEN TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND THEY CALL ME TO TELL ME THAT THE CAR IS RUNNING FINE AND THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM!!! I AM FURIOUS, I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE OF TOYOTA'S REPUTATION, RELIABILITY AND SAFETY. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THE CAR!!! *TR

ON SEPT 25, 2007 WE PURCHASED FOR MY WIFE A NEW 2008 CAMRY HYBRID AT LONGO TOYOTA, EL MONTE, CA. SHE EXPERIENCED SEVERAL PROBLEMS (DEAD STARTER BATTERY FROM HEADLIGHTS STAYING ON OR COMING ON AFTER PARKING, CAR NOT DECELERATING WHEN FOOT TAKEN OFF ACCELERATOR, ODD THINGS WITH AUTO DOOR LOCKS) THE FIRST MONTH, AND WHEN WE CALLED THE DEALER THEY TALKED US INTO ATTENDING A NEW OWNERS MEETING, SO WE COULD BECOME MORE FAMILIAR WITH THE CAR. WHEN WE BROUGHT THESE THINGS UP DURING THE MEETING, MOST OF IT WAS EXCUSED AS BEING UNFAMILIAR WITH THE CAR FEATURES, ALTHOUGH THEY TOOK THE CAMRY AND AFTER 15 MINUTES TOLD US NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE HEADLIGHTS. A SUPPOSED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS REP STATED TO ME, "THE LITTLE WOMAN ISN'T THAT TECHO, IS SHE"? A MONTH LATER SHE WAS STOPPED GOING TO WORK IN THE EARLY MORNING BY CHP, FOR DRIVING WITHOUT HEADLIGHTS BEING ON, BUT WAS NOT TICKETED BECAUSE THE OFFICER WITNESSED THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH WAS ON. (WE STILL NOTICE THE HEADLIGHT DOING ODD THINGS, AND THE SWITCH IS IN THE ON POSITION, NOT THE AUTI POSITION). BACK TO THE DEALER, NO PROBLEM FOUND. EARLY NOVEMBER 2009 WE RECEIVED FROM TOYOTA MOTOR SALES USA A "POTENTIAL FLOOR MAT INTERFERENCE WITH ACCELERATOR PEDAL SAFETY RECALL CAMPAIGN (INTERM NOTICE)" WHICH STATED "WE WILL NOTIFY YOU AGAIN AS SOON AS A CAMPAIGN REMEDY IS AVAILABLE FOR YOUR VEHICLE". WE HAVE HEARD NOTHING SINCE THAT TIME, EXCEPT FOR A SEALED OVERSIZED BUSINESS ENVELOPE LAST WEEK, WHICH WAS NOT ABOUT A FIX TO THE VEHICLE PROBLEMS, BUT SALES MATERIALS ON THE NEW 5TH GENERATION 4RUNNER. TOYOTA IS STILL NOT OWNING UP TO ALL THE DEFECTS IN THE CAMRY HYBRID. *TR

APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE IS ENTIRELY INACCURATE. I DO NOT REMEMBER WHEN THIS HAPPENED, BUT PROBABLY MORE THAN A YEAR AGO EITHER IN A 2006 CAMRY OR A 2008 CAMRY HYBRID. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V388000. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE "TOYOTA HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS DEFECT DOES NOT EXIST IN VEHICLES IN WHICH THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MAT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE VEHICLE AND IS PROPERLY SECURED" AND BELIEVE THAT MY COMPLAINT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED CONCURRENTLY WITH THIS ONE. 1. MY COMPATIBLE AND PROPERLY SECURED CARPETED DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR MAT SLIPPED OFF THE RETAINING HOOKS (CLIPS) AND BUNCHED UP UNDER THE PEDALS. THERE ARE ONLY TWO HOOKS, WHICH ARE REMOVABLE, AND THEY SPIN AROUND AND AROUND, ALLOWING THE MAT TO SLIP OFF. I BELIEVE THAT A SIMPLE FIX OF INSTALLING PERMANENT HOOKS THAT DO NOT SPIN, OR FOUR HOOKS, WOULD SOLVE THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL ISSUE. 2. AS I WAS DRIVING, I FOUND MYSELF UNABLE TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL. I DISCOVERED THAT MY FLOOR MAT HAD LODGED UNDER THE BRAKE PEDAL, MAKING IT SO THAT COULD NOT PRESS IT DOWN. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO DISLODGE THE MAT AND AVOID A COLLISION. THIS INCIDENT ONLY HAPPENED ONCE, BUT THE MATS DO COME OFF THE HOOKS FREQUENTLY, THEREFORE I MUST CONSTANTLY MAKE SURE THAT MY MAT IS SECURE AND THAT THE HOOKS ARE FACING THE CORRECT WAY SO THE MAT CANNOT SLIP OFF THEM. 3. THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPORTED AND NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. *TR

APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE IS ENTIRELY INACCURATE. I DO NOT REMEMBER WHEN THIS HAPPENED, BUT PROBABLY MORE THAN A YEAR AGO EITHER IN A 2006 CAMRY OR A 2008 CAMRY HYBRID. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 09V388000. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE "TOYOTA HAS DETERMINED THAT THIS DEFECT DOES NOT EXIST IN VEHICLES IN WHICH THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MAT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE VEHICLE AND IS PROPERLY SECURED" AND BELIEVE THAT MY COMPLAINT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED CONCURRENTLY WITH THIS ONE. 1. MY COMPATIBLE AND PROPERLY SECURED CARPETED DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR MAT SLIPPED OFF THE RETAINING HOOKS (CLIPS) AND BUNCHED UP UNDER THE PEDALS. THERE ARE ONLY TWO HOOKS, WHICH ARE REMOVABLE, AND THEY SPIN AROUND AND AROUND, ALLOWING THE MAT TO SLIP OFF. I BELIEVE THAT A SIMPLE FIX OF INSTALLING PERMANENT HOOKS THAT DO NOT SPIN, OR FOUR HOOKS, WOULD SOLVE THIS POTENTIALLY FATAL ISSUE. 2.

DROVE IN TO A PARK PARKING LOT, PULLED IN TO A PARKING SPACE WHEN ACCELERATOR PEDAL STUCK, BRAKES WENT OUT, RAN IN TO A TREE ABOUT FIVE OR SIX FEET AWAY. IF THERE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN THE TREE THERE I COULD HAVE RUN IN TO THE SOCCER GROUP A FEW HUNDRED FEET AWAY AND INJURED OR KILLED THEM AND ME. *TR
