2006 camry xle i-4 transmission fluid changed at 30k miles came out black!! this means the fluid is being burned. car not abused. driven in 3rd & 2nd on two days 25 days apart down road to yosemite brake used to keep speed down. only time i can think of that added stress to transmission. another time i had to step/floor accelerator on freeway on-ramp up grade to keep fast moving semi-truck from running me over. this is normal operation. transmission failure at these time could be very dangerous. *tw

I was driving my 2006 toyota camry hybrid near shreveport, la using the cruise control, when i suddenly found myself off the road on the sholder. i applied the brakes to no avail. i lost control and rolled over twice. i had 22 staples in my head and a burn on my neck from the seat belt. i reported this to toyota, but praised the safety features for saving my life and purchased a 2009 camry hybrid when they became available. my family and friends encouraged me to report this because my experince was so similar to that of other camry owners. my car was deemed a total loss by my insurance company. toyota's website indicated that hybrids were not part of the recall, however when i took my car in for 18000 -mile service, the dealer said it had been recalled! a repair was made to the gas petal.

I own a 2006 toyota camry. recently the speakers sounded horrible. when i went to check them i noticed the speaker covers in the rear window were crumbling and falling onto the tops of the speakers. after i researched this issue i found hundreds of other people who owned camrys of various years who all have the same problem. toyota's resolution is to replace the entire back panel for a cost of $700 that includes labor. these are $30 speaker covers that could be replaced for less than $75 installed. with the numerous cases reported on the internet with hundreds of people having the same problem they should be recalled or come up with a viable solution that isn't $700. *tr

I have a 2006 toyota camery. i have had issues with the brakes every since i got the car. the anti-lock brakes don't work the way that they should. when you press on the brake hard like you would in an emergency the car will not stop at all its as if the brakes go completely out. but if you press them slowly they work fine. but if you give a quick press they don't work. this has resulted in me almost having several accidents. i did have an accident in november 2006. when i pressed the brakes they completely gave out and i hit someone from behind. *tr
