The driver side rear door would not open from the inside or outside. Once the dealership opened the back door, the vehicle would no longer lock at all. There was nothing to indicate this would be a problem. Now my car will not lock at all and this is a safety hazard. Also, not being able to open a door from the inside or outside is a major safety issue and my vehicle is available for inspection.

For three consecutive days, while driving on the highway (speed between 50-60 miles per hour, with a speed limit of 60 miles per hour), the car experienced unstable posture, skidding, and sudden severe shaking, as if it were traveling on water, especially frequent on bends! When driving at a lower speed (between 45-60 miles per hour, with a highway speed limit of 65 miles per hour), it feels like driving on a slippery road. The first time this happened, the road surface was normal and not slippery; the second day, the first occurrence was during rain, and I thought it was due to wet road conditions, but the second and especially the third time, the road surface was dry, and there were no wet or slippery road conditions. Today is the third day and the same issue occurred again. Personally, I suspect it may be the result of improper intervention by lane assist functions.This is the first time I've encountered this situation in all my years of driving."

PANORAMIC SUNROOF. When opening it jams and starts making a loud popping noise. Others have reported it exploding sending shards of glass everywhere and Toyota refuses to issue a recall/ or fix the problem. They only told me they had no idea others were having this issue. I was 100 miles out of my warranty and they refuse to fix it for less than $10,000. This is a safety issue.

My 2021 Camry XLE Hybrid spontaneously developed a crack in the windshield. It reaches from the top edge on the passenger side and extends around the area of the mirror attachment towards the driver side. It is approximately 20 inches in length. There was no impact, nothing hit the windshield and there are no signs of any damage. It happened while the car was in my garage while i was away traveling.

Glass of sunroof exploded while driving at 60 mph, without external impact. Likely related to heat (about 95F at time of incident). If I did not have the inner plastic roof closed glass pieces would have fallen into the passenger area. The loud bang of the glass breaking was very startling and could have easily caused an unsafe reaction

A couple Monday-??s ago, I was backing my 2021 Camry LE out of the driveway when I felt the car lurch and continue in reverse until I crashed into a car down the street. I have literally backed out of that driveway thousands of time since 2006, hundreds of times with the Camry LE, and several times since the accident. I have never had this experience. While I cannot dismiss that I might have hit the accelerator, the backing out of the driveway usually requires that I ride the brake into the street, especially since I am right off the corner where cars tend to cut around quickly. (Initial estimate attached)

My son hit a tree at an estimated speed of 45 (As estimated by the accident report) and the car went in flame burning completely my son and the entire inside of the car. I am amazed at a new car that does not have enough front crash support and most important the fuel pump should have shut off due to hitting the front to prevent the car from being burned. Yes, my son died in the accident but we did not have the chance to see him because of the fire, we have only bones to bury.

Unstable wobble when driving at high speeds on some road surfaces. Steering feels as if you could lose control when this happens.
