 Description of the problemI purchased a 2009 toyota camry hybrid in may, 2009. For the first few months i got great gas mileage (around between 35-45 miles to the gallon) both in the city as well as on the highway. In the last couple months, the electric component to my engine has not been working like it has before and my gas mileage in the city is nearly half (about 21-23 miles to the gallon). At first, i chalked it up to a bad tank of gas, but months and several tanks of gas later, the problem still endures. The car should be harnessing electric energy when breaking and at stoplights. Instead, it is using an absurd amount of gas. Additionally, the electric engine will suddenly kick in when breaking suddenly giving the car a boost of acceleration while i am trying to stop the car. The whole reason i purchased a hybrid car was to reap the benefits of great gas mileage, but now i am getting far less than the regular camry model. I also feel that the sudden acceleration is a safety hazard. Given the series of recalls toyota has currently had, have you received any other complains from camry hybrid drivers?

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
