This is my fourth Camry and I had planned for it to be my last. This car has had more problems than the other three combined. I think Toyota put all its efforts on the new design and sacrificed performance. My car has stalled with flashing error messages on the dashboard several times. Two times the dealer "could not replicate the problem". This time, dealer said he thinks the electric switch under the middle gear shift console absorbed some kind of liquid - even though it is not wet now. He thinks it may have happened and possibly should be replaced. What kind of design would allow liquid to seep through the gear shifting column? That's where the cup holders are.
It's logical to think there could be a spill near cup holders. And at best, it could have only been a light spill. I only drive the car and I don't go around pouring water in the middle of my car. Of course, Toyota is saying I'm responsible for the $1599 because the problem is Not Normal Wear and Tear. To make matters worse, the dealer is even sure this is the problem. So I could spend all that money and still have the same issue.
I have to start shopping for a new car - and it will not be a Toyota.
