2007 Toyota CAMRY HYBRID Visibility Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	674931
Internal NHTSA #	10227616
Manufacurer	TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	CAMRY HYBRID
Model Year	2007
File date	08/05/08
Component	VISIBILITY
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Severe sun glare reflecting from the brushed stainless steel appliques applied to the dash, center console, and front door panels interferes with driver and passenger vision to the point of being a driving safety hazard during some lighting conditions (high sun angle during the may-september season). The appliques act like a mirror and can direct the sun's rays directly at the eyes causing temporary vision problems. The vehicle is a 2007 toyota hybrid "50th anniversary edition" with special factory upgrades (including these appliques). To my knowledge only 2500 cars of this type were manufactured and sold. Toyota denies a problem exists and states the car was "certified" for sale by the nhtsa. I have digital photos of the glare conditions that i could email to you. Please advise. I am removing and replacing the appliques with non reflective material at my expense. On a recent long trip it was necessary to cover the reflective areas with maps, a purse and other items to avoid the glare. I would appreciate your help. Thank you.
