2025 Toyota Camry

The contact owned a 2025 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle was rear-ended, causing a chain reaction crash. The steering wheel became dislodged, and the steering wheel air bag failed to deploy. The vehicle was towed to a salvage yard by the insurance company. The front and the rear of the vehicle were damaged, and the vehicle was deemed a total loss by the insurance company. The contact sustained a fractured sternum, fractured nose, and the right side of the face was bruised. The contact was taken to the hospital by ambulance and was treated for the fractures and bruises. A Police report was filed. The dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 30,000.

2025 Camry was dealer serviced at recommended internals. At the 24,000 mile service vehicle there was a "hum" from the front of the vehicle, and returned to the dealership. They confirmed the tires that had been on the back were moved to the front during the regular rotation and confirmed "consistent cupping on all 4" tires. The dealer informed us that all 4 Hankook Model Kinergy required replacement. The dealer would not provide a firm cause response. I asked for the alignment check and they confirmed it "was in spec at each visit and provided the report. The dealer inspects alignment and pressure at each visit and there were no findings of out of range. There is no warranty offered to the consumer on OEM tires, and the dealer provided an estimate for replacement in between $925 (same model which will absolutely not happen) and $1,250 for an alternate brand. In researching this issue, there are numerous reports of Hankook Kinergy GT tires OEM mounted and serviced failing between 5,000 and 24,000 miles, well below the warranty period. The arrangement between Toyota and Hankook does not support "tread wear" warranty and the only avenue for the consumer is full out of pocket replacement. When this information was passed along to the dealer, they asked for additional information and have agreed to "work with me" on cost of replacement and have requested a return visit to photograph the vehicle to submit a warranty claim. A Simple web search identifies a high instance of issues with this tire including a at least one safety recall due "tread separation potential". After presenting the dealer with the complaints filed and background, they have agreed to submit a warranty claim with Hankook but advised this will not likely provide relief. Regardless, these tires have documented failures in as little as 5,000 miles. And cupping/wear on all four wheels before the 4th service interval. Someone is going to be injured or worse. This needs a review!

When I drove my car earlier the car audio was maximum because I was listening to something quiet. Later that day I went to start a video that was much much louder. The sound blasted for a couple of seconds and my ears really hurt. I do not believe at this time that I have permanent damage but it is very painful. Cars should not start with the audio at maximum volume, this is a real safety hazard.

Tires have a bad vibration and howling noise. Have complained to dealership several times since below 15k miles.... Dealer keeps deflecting.

See attached document for complaint.

The contact owns a 2025 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that there was a persistent rattling sound coming from the sunroof assembly while driving at undisclosed speeds. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for inspection; however, the service department was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided a case number. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 17,000.

The wireless charging system in the car makes my battery in my phone very hot. It is located in the center console area. This could cause a fire. I know I am not the only person to have this issue, as I have read it many times in forums on the car. There needs to be some external cooling of some sort of design change.

I purchased this vehicle on March 14, 2026. On June 2, 2026, I reported to the dealership that the front bumper cover was beginning to separate from the vehicle near the headlights. The bumper appears to be inadequately supported because the plastic mounting brackets beneath the headlights do not provide sufficient structural support for the weight of the bumper cover. The dealership acknowledged the issue and sent my vehicle to its collision repair facility on June 23, 2026. I received the vehicle back on June 25, 2026 after repairs were completed. Unfortunately, the repair was only temporary. By July 20, 2026, the bumper had once again begun separating from the vehicle in the same location. I live in an extremely hot climate where summer temperatures regularly exceed 100°F. It appears that the plastic brackets become soft or deform from the heat, causing them to lose their ability to securely retain the bumper cover. This raises concerns that the design and materials used are not appropriate for normal operating conditions in many parts of the United States. Based on my research, this is not an isolated incident. Numerous other 2025 Toyota Camry owners have reported the same problem involving front bumper separation at the headlight mounting points. Despite the widespread nature of this apparent defect, Toyota has not issued a safety recall or provided a permanent repair. I am concerned that continued separation of the front bumper could create a safety hazard if the bumper becomes detached while driving, potentially creating road debris or increasing the risk of a crash. Consumers should not be required to repeatedly repair a component that appears to suffer from a design defect. I respectfully request that the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigate this issue and determine whether the front bumper mounting system on the 2025 Toyota Camry constitutes a safety-related defect warranting a recall or other corrective action.

The driver's seat has an issue with the backrest where something inside the seat feels loose. The driver notices this during acceleration, braking, traversing rough roads, and turning. The dealership agreed that there is a problem and stated that the Tundra has a TSB for this type of issue, but there is nothing for the Camry.

The contact owns a 2025 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that the vehicle software had been hacked. While driving with the adaptive cruise control activated, the vehicle erroneously accelerated. Additionally, while operating the vehicle, the infotainment center erroneously connected to the Apple CarPlay and Amazon Music services, and the message "Roads may be Icy - Drive with Care" was displayed, even though the temperature was 85 degrees. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The manufacturer and local dealer were notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 100.

Driver’s seat lumbar component pops when accelerating, breaking and sometimes randomly. It’s surprising and distracting causing a safety issue.

About a minute after the car is turned off (i.e. when in park and the push-button start is turned off), a warning on the heads up display will appear that reads “Low Battery Turn Power OFF.” It is unknown what causes this issue, but the vehicle has already been taken for maintenance once for this issue, and is reoccurring again less than a month after the initial problematic battery was fully replaced. There is no indication as to what is causing this issue, but maintenance had seen this issue several times before in 2025 Camry models.

The front bumper clips are not suffient ti keep the bumper up on the front of the car and it keeps falling down shortly after being reconnected. I do worry about it falling off completely and unsure if it will or wont.

Issue #1: When driving the vehicle, the center display will stop working, audio and other functions remain working, however there is no display, including when the vehicle is in reverse, resulting in a loss of visibility when backing due to the camera not being displayed, this presents a safety issue as a safety feature (the reverse camera) is not working. When the vehicle was taken in to the dealer under warranty, the dealer stated if the unit was replaced that the issue would “just happen again” and the only solution offered was to wait for a software update. A case has been opened with Toyota on this matter and they are unable to provide an ETA on when an update will be available, and are refusing to replace the display under warranty. Issue #2: The front bumper is pulling away from the headlight assembly on the driver side, this issue was addressed with 2 Toyota dealers, hey stated the clips under the headlight have broken causing the bumper to separate, claiming it was due to an “outside element” as the hood has been repainted and doesn’t match the bumper paint due to a scratch on the hood, when this was explained, they then changed their story stating there was a repair to the bumper, which is also incorrect as I have owned the vehicle since it was new, they then changed their explanation again stating there was damage under the front of the vehicle which is also incorrect, the vehicle has never been in an accident and has no damage other than rock chips that have been corrected with touch up paint to prevent rust. This causes a safety issue as the bumper is no longer secure in all areas, which they are also refusing to cover under warranty.

The front bumper under the drivers side headlight is detaching from the car. I brought the car to the dealership, they looked at it, said they pushed the bumper back in but i needed to make an appt. When i came back for the second appt, I was immediately turned away. They stated it was body work and they didn't do that type of work. I was sent to Bob Maloney Collision. There they took the bumper off, found no damage, put the bumper back on, calibrated the car. Before even leaving their parking lot, the bumper had detached again. I brought the car back a second time a little over a week later. They again took the bumper off, put it back on again. The first trip on the interstate and the bumper detached again. The car has not been in any accidents and there's no signs of curb damage or anything like that. This poses a safety risk due to the bumper being lose. At interstate speeds, the bumper clearly detaches. It could detach completely with the perfect gust of wind causing me to lose control and/or hitting other vehicles. A quick google search will show that there are multiple other incidents of this occurring. It is a known issue, though most report the actual fix as replacing the headlight assembly/bumper since the headlight is not in the correct position allowing the bumper to fully hook onto. The car is still under warranty but Toyota is giving me the run around. I opened a corporate case for reimbursement after no damage was found. When i went back to the dealership with this information and to attempt to get them to repair under warranty again, they were still trying to deflect and acting like they didn't want to fix it. I have an appt for tomorrow when the manager is there again. This will be the 5th time I've had it at either the dealership or the body shop for repairs in barely over a month and it still isn't fixed.

The driver's seat has been clicking, and something is loose or broken inside the seat—possibly the lumbar support mechanism. Seat is popping throughout the entire drive, whether accelerating or braking, etc.

I wanted to share my recent experience with Toyota regarding my brand-new Camry. The front bumper on my new vehicle is coming loose. After speaking with my dealership and Toyota corporate, I was informed that this is a known issue affecting some Camrys. I was also told similar concerns have been seen on other Toyota 4Runners (this came from a Toyota service advisor, "The 4Runners are even worse!"). What surprised me most was Toyota's position. Although the issue is known, Toyota currently has no authorized repair available for dealerships to perform under warranty. The recommendation was essentially to wait until Toyota develops an official remedy or issues a recall and they were closing my case for now; this is when the Toyota representative was getting defensive. As a customer, that's difficult to accept. I purchased a new vehicle expecting defects like a loose bumper to be corrected under warranty, not postponed indefinitely. I'm sharing this experience because other owners may be experiencing the same issue.

Manufacturer Recall Number25TB15 NHTSA Recall Number25V869 Toyota has failed to provide a fix for this recall which was supposed to happen in the first quarter of 2026. This is a potential fire hazard and needs to be fixed ASAP

On May 20, 2026, at approximately 14,600 miles, I discovered a stress fracture in the windshield of my 2025 Toyota Camry XSE immediately after going through an automated car wash. There were no prior warning signs, unusual sounds, or visible stress marks before the crack appeared. The crack originated at the driver's side edge where the glass meets the roofline at the bonded perimeter — a location inconsistent with road debris or external impact damage, which typically produces an impact point in the field of the glass rather than at the bonded edge. The crack extended downward approximately 5-7 inches in an arc pattern. There was no impact event. The crack appeared spontaneously under the mechanical stress of a standard automated car wash on a nearly new vehicle. The crack subsequently spread and created a reflective arc that directed sunlight directly into my eyes while driving, creating a significant safety hazard and impairing my ability to drive safely. I filed an insurance claim through Progressive and had the windshield replaced with OEM Toyota glass by Safelite on June 3, 2026. Note: Within 24 hours of OEM replacement, a second windshield failure occurred on June 4, 2026 while driving through Utah on I-70. This second failure suggests a potential systemic defect in Toyota Camry windshield glass rather than isolated external damage. A separate NHTSA complaint will be filed for this second incident once replacement documentation is complete.

The contact owns a 2025 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed at nighttime, the vehicle failed to detect a nearby vehicle, the interior lights failed to illuminate, and the high-beam headlight failed to illuminate as intended. An unknown message associated with the Blind Spot Monitoring system. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired because the warranty had expired. Upon further investigation, the contact related the failure to an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not under recall. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 34,000.
