My cousin purchased a used 1995 Camry last year and while driving down the road she noticed the engine compartment was smoking so she raced to pull over one block further from where it started & at the stopping point and shutting the engine down it gulfed in flames. 2 kids in back seat she does every effort to save them. However the notorious door handles inside and out were broken she had to pray to get power back on roll the window down and grab the exterior broken handle to exit. During this process she is on fire but exits to save the children unharmed. My cousin is severely burned on her one arm body and legs. Beyond repair of satisfaction but she deals with the suffer. The dealer is refusing compensation.

I was driving to work one day and my 1995 Toyota Camry started accelerating on its own on the freeway, at first I thought I was imagining it. I hit the brakes and it would not slow down. The car kept accelerating faster and faster on it's own till it went up to 90 mph. I pulled on my emergency brakes, that slowed the car down a bit but not by very much. It mostly just made a cement grinding sound. It was really scary I felt like I was in a death machine. Luckily there weren't very many people on the freeway that day, so I just swerved out of the way of the other cars. I finally got it to slow down enough with the emergency break and I immediately turned my car off and had it towed to a mechanic who repaired the issue. I was really lucky, I think if there were more people on the freeway that day, there would have been a very different outcome.

I was driving my 1995 Toyota Camry on highway, clear day and road conditions at 73 mph, and all of a sudden the speed jumped to 100 mph without any right pedal push. I took off my leg from the right pedal even then it was continuing to go at 100 mph, and luckily no traffic was there around me, so I tried to apply brakes and wasn't able to get the speed down, then put down the vehicle into parking and shut down my engine. With this the vehicle stopped. I started it again and drove another 100 miles before taking it to dealer and did not see this problem. The Toyota dealer couldn't diagnose anything wrong in the car and suggested to clean fuel injectors but not sure if this is going to fix the problem or not.

ABS light came on for no apparent reason and stayed on for two trips. Never came on again. When the car is at idle, the oil light comes on and stays on. When the accelerator is pressed, the lgiht goes out. Oil light only comes on when car is nearly stopped, or stopped completely. There is a grey sludge oozing out of the bottom door sealings. This is present on all four doors, but is very heavy on both passenger doors. This problem has been present for a few years. Car has been flawless until recently when the idling problem occured.

Accelerator stuck after pvc valve replaced caused by clamp on pvc valve. While driving about 35 mph in traffic, noticed brakes did not stop car. Tried to pump accelerator hard to release but it did not work. RPM's reached 6000. Tried putting car in park but it stopped at reverse. Car screeched to halt and squealed into reverse in lunch hour traffic. Immediately put back in drive. Again screach and squeal and going forward. After two attempts to get car out of gear, finally got car into neutral and pulled to shoulder of road. Whew! turned key off. Called aaa. Aaa mechanic 'supervisor' on tow truck found accelerator stuck on clamp from PCV valve. Aaa 'supervisor' turned clamp and said accelerator would not stick on it again. Pvc valve had been replace at last oil change. Now transmission is slipping in 3rd and reverse. While on a downward hill with car in reverse, rolled forward. Car jerks around 45mph. Estimated cost to repair $1800-3200 (rebuilt vs. New). Now notice that steering column cover rattles while driving?
