 Description of the problemI noticed while driving on highways that my 09' camry with 72k miles seemed as if i didn't have good control - like it was floating all over the road, kind of like a boat. I also noticed a creaking noise coming from left front wheel well when going over road bumps at slow speed. I had recently purchased tires so i went to tire dealership for a diagnostic . To my disbelief i was informed that my front struts (left and right) were leaking and they recommend that i replace them. Dealer wanted way to much money for the replacement so i went with my personal mechanic. My mechanic replaced all four struts, said that the coil springs appeared to be ok. Afterwards i had an alignment and balance. Shortly thereafter i went on a long distance trip, and my car was driving like a nightmare! The car handling was worse, felt like there was no space between me and the road, and the creaking noise was worse. I took it to the dealership where i purchased for a diagnostic exam and they told me i needed the front(left and right) strut mounts replaced and quoted a price that was $200 less than i had paid for struts to be replaced. So i went back to my personal mechanic. He replaced front (left and right) strut mounts, and now the creaking noise is worse and the handling about the same - bad. Since i owned the car - brand new w/ 11 miles - i am own my 3rd set of tires and have to have it balanced and aligned 2 or more time a year. I called toyota company (12/22/2015) and asked if they would give me a discount at my local dealership for another diagnostic and repairs for the problem and they said no because there was no recall for the issue. I do not feel safe driving my car and am afraid that my car is going to have a catastrophic failure. Will never buy another toyota! Our government need to step up, do their jobs and implement auto recalls on all defective equipment.

  • 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.

    Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
