Check vsc system

Excessive oil consumption. takes about 1-2 quarts every 1000 miles, otherwise i run out of oil and it starts to smell like oil when i drive or when car is running. i was headed on a trip today when my car started to drive a little funny and it started to smell like oil again. i was able to pull off to the side of the road and check it and i was low on oil. i put more oil in the car and headed back on my trip. i had the cruise control set and all of a sudden the cruise kicked off and jolted the car while i was driving 70mph. after that it was hard to get my car to shift above the 3rd rpm. car still has less than 150,000 on it. this problem has been going on for a few thousand miles. it has no oil leaks. there are no lights that go off, has had regular and scheduled maintenance with records.

I have continuously had issues with my cars ignition coils and vsc system. the check engine light and vsc system light is always on and even though i've spent thousands of od dollars on repairs the light continues to pop up even with regular maintenance and multiple repairs. my car misfires and turns off randomly this is very dangerous to drive but i have no other means of transportation. the car misfires in idle,while driving at low and high speeds and it wont turn on sometimes until i connect jumper cables to the battery. when i connect the jumper cables i never need an extra source of power i simply connect one end of the cables to the battery and a few seconds later it all the lights turn on again and the car restarts the whole system.

I had just slowly turned right into a parking spot in a public parking garage and was coasting to the end of the spot when my car suddenly started to accelerate on its own. i hit the brake, but there was not enough time to stop the car before it crashed into a large concrete pillar at the end of the parking spot. there was extensive damage to the front bumper, grill and hood of the car. i immediately checked, but there weren't any objects around the accelerator pedal and the floor mats were in place. toyota sent an inspector. the edr report is attached. toyota said there were no problems with the brake or accelerator. they would not however answer my questions about the edr data, and specifically how, if the car was not accelerating on its own, i could have been depressing the accelerator pedal, and while the accelerator remained depressed, simultaneously depressed the brake pedal as the edr data showed. note that my car was up-to-date with all recalls when the incident happened.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry. while driving approximately 45 mph, the vehicle suddenly accelerated on its own and the rpm needle moved to the highest level. the brake pedal was depressed, but the vehicle did not stop. after a few seconds, the contact shifted to the park position, removed the key from the ignition switch, and the vehicle stopped. the vehicle was driven to the contact's residence. the following day, the vehicle was driven to toyota treasure coast (5101 se federal highway stuart, florida 34997) where it was diagnosed that the floormat got caught between the accelerator pedal and the carpet of the vehicle. the contact also stated that a spring was found near the accelerator pedal. the dealer advised the contact to remove the front driver's side floormat while driving. the manufacturer was notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 55,000. the vin was not available.

Car accelarted without stepping on gas pedal on its own in a parking lot, took repetitive and forceful pressure on the brake to control car from continuing into a wall. mechanic (not dealer) tested and problem didn't appear. when driving car into home home parking spot, backing up to position place, the car accelerated on it own again and stopped only with forceful brake pressure.

While driving to work my car started doing 50 mph without my foot on any pedal. i had to ride the brake to keep it within the speed limit of 20 in the school zone and then 35 on the road. when i arrived at a red light the car tried to move forward even with the brake pressed all the way down. i put the car in neutral and the engine started revving. i turned the car off and back on and still had the same revving and pulling. i pulled off the road and put it in park and the car kept revving. i turned it off and kept it off for several minutes, when i turned it back on i still had the same issue. i carefully drove the car back home (about a mile total trip) riding the brake the whole time to keep the car from getting away from me. no mat was near the pedals, i tried moving to a lower gear, i made sure all cruise controls were off, nothing helped. it was the most terrifying experience i have ever had while driving!

The abs & brake light comes in and when it does the speed motor goes to 0 and also is the air conditioner is on it goes straight to blowing hot air

My toyota camry ce has a problem with dash board. all gauges goes up and down. i have video. i took it to mechanic and base on the scanner everything checks out fine. no code indicator. there are many forums about this same problem people are encountering. this problem must be a recall. it does it while i'm driving.

My 2007 toyota camry lr abs system is not working, i read numerous complaints (over 197 complaints with this problem on 2007 camry le's) to your site with same problem: warning lights , speedometer needle at "0", etc. cost to replace abs system over $2,500. someone said the abs was only to prevent skids and even though speedometer is not showing speed, that no other problem such as sudden stop, or brake failure, etc would happen, complaints on your site show that other problems, can result, what can we do? my car mileage is 79,899. this is a continuing problem started approx. august 2017 - -

Basically the abs actuator it's failing like in the hybrid model but are not covered by the toyota extended warranty which is completely unfair as the part failing it's the same basic abs part but on different non-electric variant

Takata recall: i took my 2007 toyota camry 4 cyl for the bulletin it has of oil consuption and it pass the test twice, i knew there was something wrong but as the technicians told me it was okay i drove it like that for some months still had to add every 1,000 miles 1 q of oil. kept doing this until my engine blew. now irs my fault and they dont want to pay for the repair. total unjustice from toyota.
