| Description of the problem | I have 2 complaints. 1) i was driving in local traffic when 5 warning lights appeared: master warning light, brake warning light, electronically controlled brake warning, abs, slip indicator. I was surprised but my brakes continued to work on the drive home & to the dealership the next day. The lights never went off (some other owners have reported the lights go on & off). I do not have cold weather conditions (50s in dec). The dealership investigated & found it was consistent with the problem covered by the warranty enhancement program (pol14-04 or nhtsa 14001) for the brake actuator assembly & skid control ecu/brake pedal stroke sensor, & also an open recall on my car for a separate item with my brakes. My car symptoms were: when stopped at a light, the car would roll forward by inches unless i had my foot firmly depressed (knee locked); noises which sounded like air moving through tubing while braking; noises that sounded like a "pump" activating after my car had been turned off (up to 15 minutes). 2) toyota has an open extended warranty (csc 10046281-9238) on the sun visor assembly & sun visor bracket including the 2009 camry hybrid. My car has had this same problem for ~4 years: the driver's side sun visor will not fully go up & remain there. Most of the time it rests halfway down but from time to time it will come down with no warning. This blocks the driver's field of vision. What is frustrating is that i spoke to both the dealership & the toyota customer service center who both agree my problem sounds exactly like the problem described in this extended warranty. However, the part number for my car (74320-33c11-b0) is not listed among the accepted parts number, and my vin doesn't match the listed vins. I hope corporate toyota will look into this and extend me the courtesy of repairing my sun visor! (dealer cost ~$250). |
