The left front tire ( new tire, I punched 4 new Michelin tires 7/11) on my car popped. I am not sure if the car pedal got stuck first, everything happened fast. Steering became impossible and the car when side to side as I attempted to steer the car. The stewing wheel would turn, but it didn't work. The major thing is that I couldn't operate the car because of the pedal getting stuck and the steering was impossible after that. The car was taken to carriage cage auto repair by aaa, who recommended I take it there, since the car could not be driven. I then went to the er room for care. Nationwide insurance was notified, they gave an estimate of over five thousand dollars to repair the car. Toyota in lake city, wa -bruce in auto care was notified regarding the pedal becoming stuck. I will have to take the car there once it is repaired. I wonder how safe is the car and what can be done about it.

My wife was driving our 04' Camry limited edition with Michelin P235/45/18 mxm4 factory installed tires at 70 miles an hour one tire blew out. The company was sent an E-mail outlining the incident. They ask us to bring the tire in to be checked. After examination we were told the failure was due to a small puncture the size of a tooth pick in the center of the tire. The rip in the tire where it blew was about 8" long and was right at the area of where the belt meets the side wall. The event caused my wife to become extremely upset. We have ordered 4 new tires from costco because my wife does not believe the company's findings. Upon further examination by me I noticed the inside of the tire rubber was extremely damaged only on one side that blew in a circle where the belt joins the side wall. The opposite side was in pristine condition. We have our cars dealer serviced routinely. The new tires have cost us more than $1000 for 4 new tires. We do not accept the company's findings and wish to go on the record regarding this tire failure incident. The vehicle is still parked awaiting the delivery of the new tires which are not stocked any where locally.

I own a 2004 Toyota Camry le, my problem with this vehicle are two things one is the braking system/ABS and the second is the tires Bridgestone. The pedal is too soft, doesn't stop the car as it should, the ABS locked on many occasions regardless of the weather condition. I managed to hit a the front of the car twice and once in the rear. All of the ABS system, while the damage is only to my car its becoming a very serious safety issue regarding the how safe is this vehicle. I have spoken with the dealer and he replaced the pads once, however the problem still exist and the rear breaks are making squeaky sound. I have 21,000 miles on this car and its my first new car and it will be the last Toyota I own. The dealer denies any problems and they say its normal but its not.

Tires tread wore below legal depth prior to 20,000 miles on the tires, creating a hazard which cause my daughter to hydroplain on almost dry road - car went into a grass median taking out a sign and much damage to the vehicle. This was on a 2004 Camry that was purchased new - just had it in to the dealer for an oil change and they rotated the tires - never mentioned the wear on the tires. When the tires were evaluated at the tire dealership - it was not due to improper air pressure or alignment - the wear was all over the tire.

Consumer bought a new Toyota Camry in 2004. The salesman represented the tires at 50,000 miles with no problems. In one year, the tire had less than 21,000 miles and all four were bald. There is a need for 4 new tires. Consumer called Toyota customer service and was told that their tires only had 20-30,000 miles on tires. Consumer had been driving with grandchildren in car on those supposedly 50,000 mile tires thinking they had longer wear. Vehicle now needs all new tires after one year and less than 21,000 miles. Consumer took a trip to Florida @ 14,000 miles and after picking up a tack went to dealer to get repaired and service dealer noted there was uneven wear on tires. Called Toyota and was told it would take 3-5 days. Took to Firestone instead who rotated tires and said the tires were normal. Yesterday was told the tires were ready to blow, the steel belts were about to come.

I have a new 2004 Camry 4 cyl. Le sedan with 5500 miles on the original birdgestone tires. These tires have very poor traction on rainy roads and with even light snow you can slide easly at 3 mph as we did. These tires are dangerous and should not be allowed on the market. Shame on Toyota for putting such sub-standard equipment on their cars. Advertisement says these tires are all season tires, Bridgestone suggested I pay for upgraded tires. I say whay should I pay for proprer all season tire S that were suppose to come on the car.

I rented a 2004 Toyota Camry with approximately 9400 miles from hertz local edition on N dale mabry ave in tampa fl. About 45 minutes later, I was on my way to orlando with my 11 month old son via interstate 4 when I heard a loud noise coming from the vehicle. I moved over to the last lane so I could take the next exit to check the car when I heard and saw the back left tire explode. Due to the explosion the car jerked towards the right so fast that I almost ended up in a large ditch on the side of I-4. I called emergency services and reported the incident and later that day returned the car for a replacement. I had both of the reservationists look at the tire and they confirmed that it looked as if it had exploded from the inside out. I received and email from hertz, which basically stated that their sorry for the problem, they inspect their cars, and sometimes things can happen.
