Front End Shimmy

Have had the car for over a year now and have been having a front end shimmy at highway speeds. This started at 9000 miles. The tires have been balanced over 3 times and now Toyota corporate is coming out to investigate vehicle. The dealer is telling me I may need new tires at 18,000 miles. New tires will cost over 1000 dollars. Loved the car at first but now am not sure. JBL audio system is poor and muffled in my opinion. Have a tear in the leather in the passengers seat and Toyota denied the warranty claim to repair it. This car has been in the shop so many times I cannot even count on both hands. I would urge any new car shopper to drive and consider all options before you purchase.
Very Happy - So Far !

I returned my G35X after the lease expired. For a lot less money I got a very good car. The V6 is quite powerful. The cabin is quiet. The MPG is better than the G 35X. Fit and finish are also very good. The fact that the car was built in the USA is an extra bonus.

Too many repairs after 5 years of Ownership

2009 Toyota Camry LE 4dr Sedan (2.4L 4cyl 5A)

It started to burn engine oil at half a quart every 800 miles after 60k miles. The rear strut went after 5 years. The power steering fluid started leaking at 60 K miles and lines had to be replaced. Water pump leaked at 1500 miles and had to be replaced. My Camry was only used about 6,000 miles a year.

Toyota cover-up tactics

Bought my 2009 LE and from the start I felt that there was something wrong in the brakes. A booster valve was replaced twice, but the pedal remained soft and many times when pushed, went to the full extent of my leg. I constantly needed to pump the brakes to get firm response. Toyota brought their big gun techno guy to the arbitration, along with engineering specs. I was the dumb consumer. ALL testing that they did to determine that my Camry was fine, was done out of sight. After buying many other Totota models over the years, I am very disappointed in their tactics.

I bought my 2009 Toyota Camry when it was new. I still consider it a new car even after 10 years. I had every intention of driving it until the wheels fall off. I have been very particular about maintenance, knowing that I wanted the car to last as long as possible. Soon after a recent oil change with the service station I have been going to since the car was new, my husband heard a clicking noise. He checked the oil and it was empty. At first I thought the service station had forgotten to add oil during the service. We brought it to our mechanic who suggested an additive. We used the additive but a few weeks later and, same problem. My husband checked the oil and it was empty. We are now trying a synthetic additive with very little hope of it working. I called the local Toyota dealership where I bought my car. They said, "Oh, Toyota extended the warranty to 10 years but that lapsed a year ago since you bought the car in 2018." Oh, okay... I am so stressed out about the ticking time bomb I'm driving, the possibility of losing a car I love and about spending money on another car (of any model) that could very well have the same problem.
