| Description of the problem | On june 5, 2014 i was driving my 07 camry at approximately 40 mph when the abs, brake and vsc warning lights came on. It took more effort to engage the brakes in the car and i drove the car to keyes toyota. The vehicle was checked and several codes were identified. C012 rear speed sensor rh circuit, c0215 rear speed sensor lh circuit, c1331 open circuit in left front circuit, u0073 control module bus off. Service writer found that the abs actuator was shorting out intermittently and advised that the vehicle may not be safe to drive. He advised that the vehicle was not covered under warranty and that the repair would cost approximately $2,750 plus tax. I was not able to pay for the repair at this time. On 6-9-14 contact was made to toyota and they advised that there were no recalls or tsb's for the abs system on non hybrid 07 camry even though the symptoms experienced and the repair codes were similar. Toyota declined assistance and advised that if they did do a recall i could submit for possible reimbursement of the repair. In researching this i found over 125 abs related complaints reported to nhtsa. In addition there are numerous complaints on the internet with persons who have experienced the very same symptoms some of which have almost been involved in collisions. This seems to be the very same issue that the 07 hybrid camry was recalled for and yet nothing is being done for the non hybrid version. This to me is a safety concern that should be recalled. |
