Camry

  • 35,000 miles
After driving the 2015 Camry le for approximately a year, I noticed a moldy smell coming from the A/C vents upon start up. I googled and found out a class action suit was filed in 2015 in ca for defective HVAC system in 2012 Camry because of mold and smelly odors coming out of A/C vents. It appears Toyota is still manufacturing Camry with the same defective HVAC part. I had my mechanic do a procedure to clean the mold out and purchased the charcoal air cabin filters. I am keeping records of each time I have the A/C service and filters replaced. I have had allergy tests performed and I am highly allergic to mold and mildew. I live in Florida and have never had this issue with A/C in cars ever and I've been driving 40 years. Regarding the seats, they are extremely uncomfortable after driving for any extended period of time. I drive 3 to 4 hours a day for work mon-fri and I have had to purchase special gel cushions (costing $135) to make the seat tolerable. I have heard complaints from other Camry and Lexus owners of the uncomfortable seats, which could lead to health issues. I purchased the 2015 Camry 9/28/15 and the current mileage is approximately 38,000 miles.

1st incident: Car in motion driving straight uphill on 2 lane country road at 30 mph - car kept lurching forward - lasted a couple of minutes. 2nd incident: Car stopped at stoplight. Stepped on accelerator pedal to move straight ahead and car didn't move. Stepped harder on accelerator and car suddenly lurched and sped up very fast. 3rd incident: Car in motion and turned onto dead end street. Car started to lurch forward at speed of about 20 mph while driving straight down street - lasted a few seconds. 4th incident: Car in motion on route 17west in NY state (3 lane highway with very busy holiday traffic) - driving straight at approximately 65 - 70 mph - in left hand passing lane. Car started to lurch very hard and then lose power - almost had accident trying to move over 2 lanes to shoulder. Car kept lurching forward very hard and then slowing down practically to a stand still - did this for approximately 15 minutes until we could get it off exit and into a gas station. Car was then towed to a Toyota dealership - they couldn't find any problems. Car is now sitting in our driveway and we will not drive it any further! innocent people could get killed because of this car. We have now reported this problem to 3 different Toyota dealerships and they cannot determine the problem after inspecting the car.

V6 engine stumbled upon accelleration in traffic. Was going less than 30 mph in heavy traffic, changed lanes to go faster but felt like engine had been turned off for 2 to 3 seconds, then it accellerated normally. Outside temp was in 80's, gas tank half full, no warning lights appeared. About 2 miles previous to this we were sitting idling in a construction zone with A/C on. No further episodes to date. Shortly after I bought the car I had a similar episode, but wasn't sure as it wasn't so noticible. Took car to dealer but no error codes present, will check farther this Friday when expert tech is there. Unknown which component caused this.
