Camry

  • 95,000 miles
The contact owns a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the gas cap needed to be replaced. The gas cap was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The contact also stated that after refueling the vehicle, the vehicle failed to immediately start. The contact stated that after waiting approximately thirty minutes the vehicle started as needed. The vehicle was taken back to the independent mechanic where the gas cap was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that fuel had leaked from the filler neck and the gas cap and purge valve needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that the VIN was not included in a recall nor covered under warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000.

Camry 4-cyl

  • 600 miles
I was traveling on a freeway at approximately 60 mph. The vehicle abruptly lost power when I "stepped on the accelerator" to compensate for a slight upgrade on the freeway, and subsequently slowed to approximately 20 mph, forcing me to pull onto the shoulder and stop the vehicle. The vehicle idled normally while parked on the shoulder; however, the vehicle had no power, would not accelerate above 20-25 mph, and forced slow travel on the shoulder of the road in an attempt to reach the nearest off-ramp.. I was forced to travel along the shoulder of the freeway at approximately 20 mph for two or three miles. Each time I attempted to "step on the gas" while traveling of the shoulder of the freeway, the engine would "stumble", appear to lose power, and force me to let up on the "gas." After traveling on the shoulder of the freeway for two to three miles, the vehicle abruptly regained power and allowed me to resume freeway travel at 55-60 mph. Prior to the 24 August, 2014, incident on the freeway, the vehicle momentarily lost power when accelerating on a freeway on-ramp; however, the problem was only a momentary event that corrected itself in a few seconds.
