Driving down a hill after leaving home, when the brakes were applied, the vehicle swerved back and forth violently almost changing lanes. afterward, it wobbled side to side and up rocked up and down as i limped it home at very low speed. the lower right rear control arm, the one that can be adjusted, was extended causing the right rear wheel to be cocked inwardly at the leading side of the wheel and tire. a week or so later, the car was towed to les schwab tire center, 10340 sw canyon rd, beaverton, or 97005, (503) 643-9446. they reported the long threaded adjusting sleeve had its threads stripped and the part failed. this shop had last inspected the car in august of 2016 during a tire rotation. they performed a 4 wheel alignment in conjunction with the purchase of a set of tires in about prior to that. i have photos of the condition as i discovered it on my phone. i can e-mail or text them separately. at present, i do not know how to download them into my computer to include them with this ...

I am contacting you to report the issue i am having with my toyota camry. i had to spend ~$2,500 to replace all four struts with only 36,000 miles on the car. this should not happen on a well maintained car (i follow the maintenance schedule regularly) at such a low mileage. this issue can make driving hazardous since it will impact breaks and traction. i had the maintenance done in nov 2014 at my regular dealership in green brook, nj and also got the car inspected for ny registration renewal in march 2015. both assessments reported that everything was ok with the car. however, during my visit to the dealership on july 3rd 2015, i was told that i need to replace all fours struts, a total cost of ~$2500. i have driven only ~ 2,000 miles between my two visits to the dealership. i was completely stocked to hear this. when i researched online, i saw several complaints about strut issue at low mileage with 2007 camry. and it is not a normal situation for struts to leak at such a low mileage. being a responsible driver, i have gotten all the repairs done. ...

I am going through my second set of struts in 4000 miles. contacted toyota dealership, they said that the oil from struts sometimes leaks. to my surprise i am not the only one who deals with strut problem on 2007 camrys. many people in blogs report that the struts just give up at 10000 miles, 20000 miles. mine gave up at 4000, i just changed the whole front set a week ago and it makes noise again!!! i do not understand how such poor quality parts are allowed to be installed on vehicles sold on us market. *js
Toyota dealership recommended immediate repairs (replacement) of front, left, and right strut (part # 48520-09f40 and 48510-09m90). total repair cost estimated is $719.73. this is my third toyota camry. 2004 camry became "lemon" for brakes problem, 2005 camry became "lemon" for engine problem. and now on my third camry, after driving only 65000 miles, front struts of my car have leaking oil. my car was not involved in any accident. i see on website many complaints for leaking oil on struts on 2007 camrys. i suggest to toyota making recalls for this issue. *tr
My mechanic showed me all 4 struts(f&r) are leaking too much and that they have to be replaced. i called manhattan beach toyota and they said it is not covered under any recall or warranty & it will cost over $1400.00 to replace. it took the mechanic over hours to complete replacing all 4 struts. i am really shocked by this finding, it shouldn't have happened, and toyota should take care of this problem. *tr
All the 4 struts are leaking. i took the car for tire rotation at goodyear service station. they told me that all 4 struts are leaking and need replacement. i then took the car of ntb they said same thing. it's unusual for carmy with 50000 miles to have all 4 struts leaking. i see lots of people have this problem with the camry. the ride is bumpy. this should be a recall. *tr
