    NHTSA recall 25V595000 covers the 2025 Camry. Toyota identified an error in the instrument panel software that occurs at vehicle startup and can leave the panel failing to display vehicle speed, the brake system warning light, and the tire pressure warning light. The everyday consequence for a Camry driver is that you may set off on a commute with no speedometer indication and with two safety telltales that cannot warn you — a brake system fault or a low tire would go unannounced in the cluster. NHTSA's consequence statement is that an instrument panel that does not show critical information can increase the risk of a crash or injury. The 591,377 units published for this recall are the total for the whole campaign across many Toyota and Lexus models.

    Common Symptoms

    • Vehicle speed missing from the instrument panel after startup
    • Brake system warning light does not display
    • Tire pressure warning light does not display

    How to Fix

    Free of charge. Non-plug-in vehicles, including the 2025 Camry, receive an over-the-air update to the instrument panel software; if the OTA update does not apply, a dealer can perform it. Toyota mailed the first owner letters December 5, 2025, and further letters are anticipated in May 2026 because the recall is phased. Verify your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm coverage and whether the remedy has been completed on your car. Toyota customer service is 1-800-331-4331; the campaign numbers are 25TB08 and 25TA08.

    On 2025-2026 Camry Hybrids built with the smaller 7-inch combination meter (LE, SE and Nightshade grades - the XLE/XSE 12.3-inch cluster is not covered), the instrument cluster display can fail during vehicle startup. The failure is not limited to the display itself: because the meter software also arbitrates several body functions, a failed startup deactivates the turn signals, the hazard flashers, the seat belt warning system and the smart key reminder buzzer. Toyota reported the vehicles non-compliant with FMVSS 101 (Controls and Displays), 108 (Lamps and Reflective Devices), 114 (Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention) and 208 (Occupant Crash Protection). Roughly 508,000 US vehicles are involved, built from August 2024 through June 2026. This is a separate campaign from the earlier 25V595 instrument-panel recall, which covered the 12.3-inch panel losing the speedometer, brake and tire-pressure telltales.

    Common Symptoms

    • Instrument cluster completely blank when the car is started
    • Turn signals do not flash or do not self-cancel
    • Hazard flasher button does nothing
    • No seat belt reminder chime
    • No smart key / key reminder buzzer when exiting
    • Speedometer and warning telltales missing

    How to Fix

    Free recall repair: Toyota dealers reflash the combination meter software. Toyota's internal recall numbers are 26TB16 and 26TA16; owner notification letters were scheduled to be mailed starting September 21, 2026. Check the VIN at a Toyota dealer or through NHTSA before assuming the car is clear, since the fix is software-only and can be done in a single short shop visit. If the cluster goes blank while driving before the update is performed, treat the car as having no turn signals or hazard lights and use hand signals until it is repaired.

    Two safety recalls cover different VIN/production populations of certain Camry and Camry Hybrid vehicles. Recall 12V491 covers certain 2007-2009 vehicles whose driver Power Window Master Switch may feel notchy or sticky; applying commercially available cleaning lubricant can cause the assembly to overheat/melt, smoke and potentially fire. Recall 15V689 covers certain 2007 and 2009 vehicles where inconsistent spray-grease coverage can allow debris and moisture to form a short, overheating/melting the switch and potentially causing fire. Model year alone does not prove inclusion.

    Common Symptoms

    • Notchy or sticky driver power-window master switch
    • Abnormal heat, melting, smoke or burning odor at the driver switch

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN for open NHTSA/Toyota campaigns 12V491 and 15V689 and schedule an authorized Toyota dealer if either is open. Do not apply commercial cleaning lubricant to a notchy/sticky switch. The free campaign remedy is dealer inspection and specialized grease application, with switch/circuit-board replacement when the applicable campaign inspection requires it. If there is heat, smoke or a burning odor, stop using the switch, turn the vehicle off safely and arrange dealer guidance. Do not buy the prior switch or grease products from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningDo not apply commercially available cleaning lubricant to a notchy or sticky master switch; Toyota's 12V491 notice warns this can contribute to melting, smoke and fire.
    • TipRecall coverage is VIN-specific and the two campaigns cover different production populations. Check both campaign numbers instead of relying on model year alone.

    Toyota T-SB-0049-14 Rev1 applies to some 2013-2014 Camry Hybrid vehicles with P0A80 or P0A7F when dust or debris has accumulated in the HV battery cooling fan and/or internal cooling-duct filter. Toyota requires physical inspection: if the fan/filter is not clogged, the bulletin does not apply and normal repair-manual diagnosis continues. This evidence does not support a general 2007-2017 weak-cell card, an 8-12-year failure prediction, a 100,000-mile threshold or assuming one module is the repair.

    Common Symptoms

    • Malfunction indicator lamp
    • DTC P0A80 or P0A7F
    • Dust or debris found in the HV battery cooling fan or internal filter

    How to Fix

    Have a hybrid-qualified technician retrieve the full DTC and information code and inspect the high-voltage battery cooling fan and internal filter under Toyota's safety procedure. When T-SB-0049-14's debris condition is confirmed, follow the VIN-dependent procedure to clean the cooling path, replace the HV battery assembly and install, clean or replace the specified intake filter. If debris is absent, use the repair manual for P0A80/P0A7F. High voltage can injure or kill; do not open the pack, swap modules or install a reconditioned/lithium pack from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningThe hybrid battery contains lethal voltage. Do not open it or replace individual modules without Toyota-specified high-voltage training, PPE and isolation procedures.
    • TipRecord P0A80/P0A7F information codes and inspect the fan/filter before condemning the pack; T-SB-0049-14 applies only when its debris condition is present.

    NHTSA recall 25V595 and Toyota campaigns 25TB08/25TA08 cover certain model-year 2025 Camry vehicles equipped with affected 12.3-inch combination-meter software. Toyota reported 49,865 potentially involved Camrys produced April 2 through November 22, 2024. Improper programming repeatedly writes unnecessary data to memory, which can cause the display to remain blank at ignition on. If driven in that state, vehicle speed and warning indications such as brake-system or tire-pressure information may be missed, increasing crash or injury risk. Production dates alone do not establish that a particular VIN is included.

    Common Symptoms

    • 12.3-inch combination-meter display remains blank at ignition on
    • Vehicle speed is not displayed in the instrument panel
    • Brake-system or tire-pressure warning information may be missed

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN at Toyota's official recall lookup or with a Toyota dealer. For an involved Camry, the dealer updates the combination-meter programming free of charge; Toyota also made the update available over the air for certain non-PHEV vehicles that support it. Confirm recall completion by VIN. If the display is blank, use the redundant center-screen information where available, avoid unnecessary driving, and arrange the recall remedy rather than replacing or purchasing the cluster.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningApplicability is VIN-specific. A 2025 model year or production date inside the reported range does not by itself prove that the recall is open on the vehicle.
    • TipHave a Toyota dealer or the official Toyota recall lookup confirm both VIN inclusion and completion of the free combination-meter software update.

    NHTSA recall 25V744 covers certain 2025-2026 Toyota Camry Hybrid vehicles equipped with affected Panoramic View Monitor software, not every Camry in those model years. Under a specific startup-to-reverse timing sequence, the rear image may freeze for up to 1.8 seconds. A separate early-startup optical-alignment write and ECU power-down sequence can cause a blank image on the next ignition cycle. Either condition can reduce rear visibility and fails FMVSS 111 requirements, increasing crash risk.

    Common Symptoms

    • Rear/Panoramic View Monitor image freezes briefly after startup and reverse selection
    • Rear/Panoramic View Monitor image is blank when reverse is selected

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN for open NHTSA recall 25V744 or Toyota campaign 25TB13/25LB06. If open, schedule an authorized Toyota dealer to update the Parking Assist ECU software at no charge. Until the remedy is completed, physically check the area around and behind the vehicle and use mirrors rather than relying only on the displayed image. If the display freezes or is blank, stop the reversing maneuver safely and re-check the path.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningThe recall is VIN-specific. Model year alone does not prove that a 2025-2026 Camry Hybrid is included.
    • TipUntil the free software update is complete, physically check behind the vehicle and use mirrors instead of relying only on the camera image.

    Toyota T-SB-0095-20 applies to some 2020-2021 Camry and Camry Hybrid vehicles that may have a depleted 12-volt battery while the ignition is off. The same DCM firmware condition may also present with B15A804 in current or history, a red SOS LED that remains on after bulb check, an inoperative Toyota App, inability to subscribe to remote services, or inability to activate Wi-Fi. This evidence does not support a generic 2018-2023 claim or prove that every discharged Camry battery is caused by the DCM.

    Common Symptoms

    • Depleted 12-volt battery while the ignition is off
    • DTC B15A804 in current or history
    • Red SOS LED remains on after bulb check
    • Toyota App or remote services inoperative
    • Unable to activate vehicle Wi-Fi

    How to Fix

    Test the 12-volt battery and charging system and measure key-off draw before assigning the cause. If the vehicle is an applicable 2020-2021 Camry or Camry Hybrid and has the T-SB-0095-20 condition, follow Toyota's DCM reset and firmware-update procedure with the required battery support and Techstream steps. Continue normal parasitic-draw diagnosis when the vehicle, DCM firmware, DTC, or symptoms do not match. Do not replace a battery, relay, telematics module, or buy a maintainer from this card without diagnosis.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipRecord battery state, key-off draw, DCM firmware and B15A804 history before clearing codes or disconnecting power; a weak battery and a DCM draw can coexist.
    • WarningT-SB-0095-20 is limited to 2020-2021 Camry/Camry Hybrid and does not make a battery, maintainer, relay, or telematics module an automatic repair.

    Toyota T-SB-0001-10 Rev1 covers specified 2007-2009 Camry VDS BK46K and 2010 VDS BK3EK applications. P0138/P0158 may result from incorrect air-fuel-sensor response, and P0606 may also be present due to incorrect downstream O2-sensor operation. Toyota distinguishes these paths using the complete DTC set, freeze-frame air-fuel/O2 voltage and downstream O2 impedance, followed by circuit inspection. It does not describe every P0606 as a sensor fault or support the original 2AZ-FE, 2006-2012, VSC/TRAC or battery claims.

    Common Symptoms

    • Malfunction indicator lamp with a covered combination of P0138, P0158 and/or P0606

    How to Fix

    Confirm the covered VDS/2GR-FE application and capture all DTCs plus freeze-frame data. Follow T-SB-0001-10 Rev1: use the specified air-fuel/O2 freeze-frame gates for P0138/P0158, and for a qualifying P0606 path verify O2 Sensor 2 voltage above 1.10 V and/or impedance above 300 ohms at normal operating temperature, then inspect the circuit for open, short or high resistance. Replace only the bulletin-identified sensor when every gate is met; otherwise continue repair-manual P0606 diagnosis. Do not buy the prior sensor from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipSave the complete DTC set and freeze-frame air-fuel/O2 values before clearing codes; the bulletin's path depends on the combination and measured data.
    • WarningDo not treat a standalone P0606 or a non-covered VDS/engine as an oxygen-sensor diagnosis. Follow the applicable repair manual instead.

    A 1996 Camry owner discussion documents power-window operation that became unreliable. Slow movement, grinding, intermittent operation, or glass that stops does not identify one failed part: the switch, wiring, glass run, regulator, motor, attachment, or power and ground can produce similar symptoms. This is an owner-reported troubleshooting topic, not evidence that every 1996 Camry has a regulator or motor defect.

    Common Symptoms

    • Window moves slowly or stops
    • Grinding or clicking inside one door
    • Glass drops or will not stay raised
    • Window responds intermittently to the switch

    How to Fix

    Secure loose glass before it can fall, then test switch command, power, ground, and voltage drop under load. Inspect the exact door's glass attachment, run channels, regulator, motor, and door-jamb wiring. Replace only the measured failure with a VIN-, production-date-, and door-position-specific part.

    Toyota T-SB-0003-19 covers specified Fujitsu Ten Entune Audio, Audio Plus and Premium Audio head units in 2016-2017 Camry and Camry Hybrid vehicles. Depending on unit and software version, listed conditions include intermittent reboot or freeze, Bluetooth disconnect/operation problems, backup-camera display timing, missing/mismatched audio information, phone-book or message issues and DTC U1110, B15E6 or U0293. It does not support the original 2018-2023 scope, Android Auto claim or a universal freezing/backup-camera defect.

    Common Symptoms

    • Head unit reboots intermittently
    • Intermittent freeze condition
    • Intermittent Bluetooth disconnection or abnormal operation
    • Backup camera stays on too long
    • Audio or phone information is missing or mismatched

    How to Fix

    Record the exact symptom, head-unit panel ID and current software versions. Apply T-SB-0003-19 only to a listed Fujitsu Ten unit with software older than Toyota's specified version; follow the bulletin's controlled USB update and verification steps. If the software is current, Toyota says the bulletin does not apply and normal diagnosis continues. Do not replace the head unit, erase all pairings or assume a power-button reset is a repair unless the exact diagnostic procedure calls for it.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipPhotograph the panel ID and software-version screens before updating; T-SB-0003-19 only applies to listed Fujitsu Ten units below Toyota's specified versions.
    • WarningDo not interrupt accessory power during Toyota's update sequence. If the unit is already current, continue diagnosis instead of repeating or forcing the update.

    Toyota Limited Service Campaign 90K covered certain, not all, 2007-2010 Camrys with the 2GR-FE V6. Toyota said the rubber portion of the VVT-i actuator oil-supply hose could degrade over time and leak, potentially producing abnormal engine noise or an oil-pressure warning. The campaign required VIN eligibility confirmation and expired on December 31, 2021. Toyota's documented campaign part was No. 1 Oil Hose Kit 04009-33131; technical instructions show an improved hose and clamps, so the prior statement that Toyota's campaign installed all-metal pipe 15772-31030 was incorrect.

    Common Symptoms

    • Oil leaking from the VVT-i oil-supply hose
    • Oil-pressure warning light
    • Abnormal engine noise associated with oil loss
    • Rapidly falling engine-oil level

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN's campaign history through Toyota and inspect the VVT-i oil hose and engine-oil level. If the oil-pressure warning appears, a large leak develops, or abnormal engine noise begins, shut the engine off and arrange service rather than continuing to drive. Because LSC 90K has expired, do not promise a free repair. Have a Toyota dealer or qualified technician identify the current VIN-correct service parts and inspect for lubrication damage if the engine ran low. Do not order the previously listed all-metal pipe or gasket searches as though they were Toyota's campaign remedy.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningAn oil-pressure warning or sudden large oil loss requires immediate shutdown; driving further can turn a hose repair into engine damage.
    • TipAsk Toyota for the VIN's LSC 90K completion history before paying for repeat work, while recognizing that the campaign itself expired in 2021.

    Owner discussions document overheating and repeated head-gasket repair on individual 1992-1993 Camry 3VZ-FE vehicles. They do not establish a fleet-wide design defect, cylinder-six pattern, mileage range, or mandatory parts list. Toyota campaign V06 covered the different 3VZ-E engine in specified trucks and SUVs; it is not a Camry 3VZ-FE remedy.

    Common Symptoms

    • Overheating
    • Unexplained coolant loss
    • Combustion gas or abnormal pressure in the cooling system
    • Coolant and oil contamination after diagnosis

    How to Fix

    Stop driving if the engine overheats, loses coolant rapidly, pressurizes the cooling system abnormally, or mixes coolant and oil. Pressure-test the system, check for external leaks and airflow problems, and perform appropriate combustion-gas, compression, and leak-down testing before disassembly. If internal leakage is confirmed, inspect head and block condition and follow the exact 3VZ-FE repair procedure; do not claim campaign V06 coverage for a Camry.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningStop driving an overheating vehicle and arrange diagnosis; continued operation can cause severe engine damage.

    Toyota's inspection and repair bulletins cover certain 2007-2009 non-hybrid Camrys with the 2AZ-FE engine that may exhibit excessive engine-oil consumption. The 2010-2011 Camry scope in Toyota's documents is for the Camry Hybrid's 2AZ-FXE, not the gas 2AZ-FE record here. Toyota's repair bulletin says the piston assembly was changed to minimize consumption, but it does not support assigning the previous generic misfire/catalyst codes, a fixed one-quart consumption rate, or a universal mileage range to every covered car.

    Common Symptoms

    • Engine-oil level falls between services
    • Repeated need to add engine oil
    • Consumption that exceeds Toyota's sealed 1,100-1,300-mile test threshold
    • External oil leaks that must be corrected before the consumption test

    How to Fix

    Check the dipstick regularly and correct any external leaks before measuring consumption. Toyota T-SB-0158-14 uses a sealed test: the dealer sets the oil level, seals the relevant points, and rechecks after 1,100-1,300 miles. If the vehicle exceeds the bulletin threshold, T-SB-0030-15 directs piston and ring replacement with additional cylinder-wall, piston-grade, connecting-rod, and production-plant checks. Ask Toyota about the VIN's ZE7 history, but do not assume current coverage. Do not order pistons, rings, a gasket set, head bolts, plugs, or a catalyst before the test and teardown establish the exact repair.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipCheck and record the dipstick level frequently enough to prevent the engine from running low while arranging the formal consumption test.
    • WarningDo not buy a generic four-piston kit from one base part number; Toyota's repair procedure selects piston grade and parts after VIN, plant, and cylinder inspection checks.

    Toyota's Engine Oil Gelation Customer Support Program included 1997-2002 Camry V6 vehicles. Toyota's owner letter described engine oil gel as thickened oil that can restrict lubrication and identified blue exhaust smoke and excessive oil consumption as possible symptoms. The program offered oil-gel-related repair assistance for eight years from first sale or lease, so that coverage has expired. Program inclusion documents a real service history, but it does not prove that every 1MZ-FE develops gelation or support the prior claims about a specific drain-back defect, a hot intake area, Camry-versus-Sienna frequency, or a universal production change.

    Common Symptoms

    • Blue smoke from the exhaust
    • Excessive engine-oil consumption
    • Visible heavy gel or sludge inside the engine
    • Oil-pressure warning or abnormal valvetrain/bearing noise if lubrication is restricted

    How to Fix

    Check the oil level and maintenance history first. If the oil-pressure warning appears or the engine develops pronounced ticking or knocking, shut the engine off and have actual oil pressure and internal condition checked before further driving. A technician can inspect under the valve covers and, where indicated, the oil pan and pickup, then determine whether deposits can be removed safely or whether lubrication damage requires engine repair or replacement. Do not use a chemical flush or assume a PCV valve alone is the repair for heavy deposits. Continue oil and filter service at the interval and with the grade specified for the vehicle's operating conditions.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningDo not keep driving with an oil-pressure warning or pronounced knock, and do not pour a solvent flush into a heavily gelled engine; loosened deposits can further restrict oil flow.
    • TipWhen evaluating one of these cars, review oil-service records and inspect internally rather than judging engine condition only through the oil-filler opening.

    Owner discussions document drain-plug leaks or damaged threads after oil service on individual Camrys. This is a service-related condition, not evidence of a sixteen-year model defect. A leak at the plug can involve a missing or reused gasket, plug damage, dirt, sealing-face damage, incorrect torque, cross-threading, cracked or deformed pan material, or oil traveling from above.

    Common Symptoms

    • Fresh oil at the drain plug after service
    • Drain plug will not tighten normally
    • Damaged or missing drain-plug gasket
    • Visible thread or sealing-face damage

    How to Fix

    Confirm the leak source, then inspect the plug, gasket, sealing face, pan material, and threads. Choose repair only after measuring the damage and checking wall thickness, alignment, and chip-control requirements. Do not install an oversize or self-tapping plug or insert from this page without a qualified assessment and the exact service procedure.

    A 2007 Camry SE V6 owner discussion documents repeated engine-mount trouble and vibration. It does not establish a 2007-2018 defect, apply to four-cylinder mount designs, or prove that every in-gear vibration is a failed hydraulic or active-control mount. Engine idle quality, exhaust contact, accessory load, transmission engagement, axles, subframe, suspension, installation, and individual mount condition all require inspection.

    Common Symptoms

    • Vibration at idle while in Drive
    • Clunk during engagement or acceleration
    • Excessive engine movement during a controlled inspection

    How to Fix

    Reproduce the vibration in the reported operating condition, verify engine idle quality and misfire state, and inspect exhaust and driveline contact before testing every mount in the exact VIN application. Replace only a mount proven cracked, separated, collapsed, leaking, misaligned, or incorrectly installed. Do not order a four-mount set from this report.

    Toyota T-SB-0010-24 applies to 2018-2024 Camry vehicles with the A25A-FKS engine that misfire after a cold soak when engine-coolant temperature in freeze-frame data is 14-41 degrees F. The bulletin identifies P030027, P030000, P030100, P030200, P030300, and P030400. It does not authorize lash-adjuster replacement from a rough-start complaint alone: compression, spark plugs and coils, direct- and port-injector resistance, and the fuel system must first meet specification.

    Common Symptoms

    • Cold-soak misfire with coolant freeze-frame temperature of 14-41 degrees F
    • Rough running immediately after an eligible cold soak
    • MIL with one or more exact T-SB-0010-24 misfire DTCs

    How to Fix

    Confirm that an exact listed DTC is present and that freeze-frame coolant temperature was 14-41 degrees F. Follow T-SB-0010-24 to verify cylinder compression, spark-plug and ignition-coil operation, direct- and port-injector resistance, and fuel-system operation. If every prerequisite is within specification and the bulletin's decision path is satisfied, replace all eight exhaust-side hydraulic lash adjusters and required one-time-use seals/gaskets using the bulletin and current VIN-specific parts information. Do not substitute a generic P0300 diagnosis, assume intake carbon is the cause, or order an old/superseding part number from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipSave the exact seven-character DTC and freeze-frame coolant temperature before clearing codes; both determine whether T-SB-0010-24 applies.
    • WarningThe bulletin requires compression, ignition, both injector systems, and fuel-system checks before eight lash adjusters are authorized, and it expressly says not to use superseding part numbers from its table.

    Toyota T-SB-0192-12 addresses an intermittent P0335 on specified 2007-2009 Camry 2AZ-FE and 2007-2011 Camry Hybrid 2AZ applications. The bulletin applies only when freeze-frame data shows the engine at approximately 185°F or above and near idle below 1,000 rpm; otherwise Toyota directs normal repair-manual diagnosis. The documented condition concerns the intake camshaft timing gear, not a blanket crankshaft- or camshaft-position-sensor failure. Toyota also notes that battery voltage below 11 volts can contribute to P0335 or P0340 and must be corrected first.

    Common Symptoms

    • Intermittent malfunction indicator lamp
    • DTC P0335 stored with hot near-idle freeze-frame data

    How to Fix

    Confirm the VIN/VDS and powertrain, preserve freeze-frame data, and test the 12-volt battery and supply voltage before replacing parts. Apply T-SB-0192-12 only when P0335 occurred at the bulletin's operating-temperature and near-idle gates; the Toyota procedure then installs the improved intake camshaft timing gear and completes the specified timing work. If those gates do not match, or another code such as P0340 is present, follow the repair manual. Do not order either prior position sensor from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipSave freeze-frame temperature, engine speed and battery voltage before clearing P0335; those values determine whether T-SB-0192-12 applies.
    • WarningDo not replace a crankshaft or camshaft position sensor from the code alone. Toyota's exact bulletin repair is an intake camshaft timing gear after VIN/VDS and freeze-frame gates are satisfied.

    Owner and how-to discussions describe throttle-body cleaning during troubleshooting of idle or starting concerns. They do not establish faster-than-normal deposit buildup or prove that deposits cause every rough or high idle, stall, hesitation, or pedal-to-start event. Battery voltage and relearn state, air leaks, PCV flow, MAF data, fuel delivery, ignition, compression, temperature inputs, throttle actuation, and ECM logic can produce overlapping symptoms.

    Common Symptoms

    • Rough or unstable idle
    • Unexpectedly high idle
    • Stalling or difficult starting
    • Hesitation with no confirmed cause

    How to Fix

    Record stored codes and scan data, check battery and charging voltage, inspect the complete induction system for leaks, and follow Toyota's exact engine diagnostic procedure. Inspect the throttle bore only when the symptom and data support it. If cleaning is selected, use the applicable service instructions and do not force an electronic throttle plate or spray solvent into electronics.

    Older 5S-FE Camry engines can leak externally from more than one gasket, O-ring, or shaft seal, but those locations are distinct wear and sealing conditions rather than one documented multi-point defect. Oil running down the engine can make a high leak appear to originate at the timing cover, oil pump, or oil pan. The prior card overstated prevalence and prescribed a bundle of parts without first establishing the source.

    Common Symptoms

    • Fresh engine oil on the upper or lower engine
    • Oil spots after parking
    • Burning-oil odor if oil reaches a hot surface
    • Falling engine-oil level between checks
    • Oil contamination inside the timing-belt area

    How to Fix

    Check and maintain the oil level, clean accumulated oil from the engine, and trace fresh leakage from the highest wet point downward. Inspect the valve-cover perimeter and grommets, distributor area where fitted, camshaft and crankshaft seals, oil-pump sealing surfaces, timing-cover area, oil-pressure sender, filter, and drain plug as applicable. UV dye can help when the source is not visible. Replace only the confirmed seal or gasket using the factory procedure and VIN-correct part; inspect timing components for contamination if a leak is inside the timing-belt area. Recheck after cleaning and repair before attributing remaining residue to another seal.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipClean the engine and trace fresh oil from the highest wet point; airflow and gravity often make a valve-cover or cam-seal leak look like an oil-pan or oil-pump leak.
    • WarningCheck the dipstick regularly and stop if the oil-pressure warning remains on. Do not order a bundle of seals until the actual leak source and VIN-specific parts are confirmed.

    Toyota T-SB-0269-10 applies to certain 2005-2007 Camry vehicles equipped with the 2AZ-FE and produced before bulletin-specific VIN gates. The covered condition is MIL illumination with P0011, P0012 or P0016; Toyota says the VVT-i actuator may be the cause in some cases and supplies a test to verify actuator operation. The bulletin does not establish a clogged oil-control valve as the near-universal cause, does not apply to 2AR-FE or A25A-FKS Camrys, and does not make any one DTC a parts diagnosis.

    Common Symptoms

    • Malfunction indicator lamp illuminated with P0011, P0012 or P0016

    How to Fix

    Confirm model year, 2AZ-FE application and the production/VIN gate in the current Toyota bulletin. Preserve freeze-frame data, verify oil level/condition and follow the repair-manual circuit and mechanical checks. Use T-SB-0269-10's Techstream VVT Control active test to determine whether the bulletin repair applies; replace the camshaft timing gear assembly only when the actuator fails Toyota's gate. Do not clean or replace an oil-control valve, open the timing system or order parts from the code alone.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipRecord all stored/pending codes and freeze-frame data before clearing them; T-SB-0269-10 uses exact vehicle and actuator-test gates rather than treating P0011 as a part number.
    • WarningThe bulletin is limited to certain pre-production-change 2005-2007 2AZ-FE Camrys. Do not apply its camshaft timing gear repair to 2AR-FE or A25A-FKS engines.

    Toyota T-SB-0041-13 Rev1 covers certain 2010-2012 Camry vehicles equipped with the 2AR-FE and within its WMI, VDS and production-VIN gates. The condition is a brief knock or rattle, approximately one second, immediately after a cold-soak startup. Toyota's repair is replacement of the intake camshaft timing gear assembly after confirming applicability. The bulletin does not identify P0016 or P0012, stalling, broken internal lobes, debris contamination or a nine-year 2009-2017 scope.

    Common Symptoms

    • Brief knock or rattle for approximately one second immediately after a cold-soak startup

    How to Fix

    Reproduce and record the brief noise after a true cold soak, then verify the engine, WMI, VDS and production VIN against the current Toyota bulletin. Rule out oil level/grade, extended cranking and other engine or accessory noises. Apply T-SB-0041-13 Rev1 only when every vehicle and symptom gate matches; the timing-system repair is a technician procedure. Diagnose any stored P0016/P0012 separately under the repair manual rather than using this bulletin as proof of a broken phaser.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipCapture the first cold-soak start on video and note duration; the Toyota bulletin describes an approximately one-second knock/rattle immediately after startup.
    • WarningDo not use P0016 or P0012 alone to invoke this bulletin. Confirm 2AR-FE, WMI, VDS, production VIN and the exact cold-start symptom first.

    Camry owner discussions document vibration while stopped in Drive on 5S-FE vehicles. They do not identify the previously claimed Toyota bulletin, softer mount material, post-1995 mount-size change, or one common failed mount. Idle quality, misfire, exhaust or accessory contact, driveline load, mount preload and alignment, and the condition of each engine and transmission mount can overlap.

    Common Symptoms

    • Vibration at idle while in Drive
    • Vibration felt through the steering wheel, seat, or body
    • Clunk during a load change when accompanied by measured mount movement

    How to Fix

    Confirm engine idle quality and scan for misfire or fuel-control problems, then inspect exhaust and accessory contact and each mount under the applicable Toyota procedure. Replace only a mount proven cracked, separated, collapsed, leaking, or incorrectly installed, and verify mount preload and alignment.

    Complaint indexes contain individual 2025 Camry Hybrid reports involving brake-system messages or unexpected driver-assistance behavior. An ECB or Smart Stop malfunction message, unexpected braking, normal Proactive Driving Assist deceleration, road-sign recognition behavior, and lane-support behavior are different events and must not be assigned one cause. The reports do not establish a confirmed Toyota defect, a shared calibration, or 2026 applicability.

    Common Symptoms

    Toyota T-SB-0130-19 and Customer Support Program ZKK apply to certain 2012-2014 Camry Hybrid vehicles with brake, ABS and/or TRAC warning lights or a Check VSC message. Verification requires C1391, C1252, C1256 or C1253. Toyota attributes the specified condition to a small internal brake-fluid leak in the brake-booster assembly with master cylinder. Warning lamps can have other causes, and the documents do not support extending this record to gasoline Camrys or other model years. ZKK's primary coverage ended March 31, 2021; its secondary coverage was 10 years or 150,000 miles from first use, so its published coverage period has expired for this model-year range as of 2026.

    Common Symptoms

    • Brake system warning light
    • ABS warning light
    • TRAC or slip warning indicator
    • Check VSC message

    How to Fix

    Scan the Toyota brake-control system and confirm the exact DTC and VIN/application before repair. When T-SB-0130-19's condition is verified, Toyota's procedure replaces both the brake-booster assembly with master cylinder and the brake-booster pump assembly, followed by the specified initialization/bleeding and confirmation steps. Contact a Toyota dealer to confirm any current VIN-specific assistance, but do not assume ZKK remains active. Treat red brake warnings or changed braking response as safety-critical and do not buy campaign kits, used actuators, scan tools, or fluid from this card.

    NHTSA recall 21V890/Toyota 21TA09 covers certain non-hybrid 2018-2019 Camrys with the A25A-FKS engine, not Camry Hybrids or every vehicle in those model years. An affected vacuum-pump vane end cap can wear, break and lodge between the vane and housing, stopping the pump and suddenly reducing brake assist. The service brakes still function, but pedal effort increases and braking performance may be reduced, increasing crash risk. Toyota reports no expected advance warning before the condition occurs.

    Common Symptoms

    • Sudden increase in brake-pedal effort
    • Brake-system warning indicators, warning chime or Low Braking Power message after assist is reduced

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN for open recall 21V890/Toyota 21TA09 and schedule an authorized Toyota dealer if open. The free campaign remedy is inspection of the vacuum pump and repair or replacement according to Toyota's recall procedure. If the brake pedal suddenly requires much more force, press firmly, increase following distance, reduce speed and stop in a safe location; warning lamps, a chime or a Low Braking Power message may appear only after assist is reduced. Do not buy or open the prior pump, cap or gasket from this card.

    NHTSA safety recall 06V096000 applies to certain 2007 Camry sedans. The problem is an assembly error in the air bag inflator used across three restraint locations — the side air bag, the curtain shield air bag and the knee air bag assembly. Some of these inflators were produced without enough of the heating agents that generate the inflation gas. Because of that shortfall, the expansion force may be insufficient to properly inflate the air bag at the moment the SRS system activates in a crash, which increases the risk of injury to whoever is seated in the affected position. Note that this is a manufacturing shortfall in a specific batch of inflators, not a wear item and not something that develops over time — a 2007 Camry either received a suspect inflator on the assembly line or it did not. NHTSA lists 133 units for the campaign as a whole, spanning all the Toyota, Scion and Lexus vehicles included.

    How to Fix

    Have a Toyota dealer perform the recall; it costs the owner nothing. The dealer's remedy is to replace the specific SRS air bag that carries the defective inflator. The recall began April 6, 2006, and safety recalls do not expire, so a 2007 Camry that never had the work done is still eligible. Run the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls to confirm 06V096000 shows as an open recall before scheduling, and use Toyota's recall line 1-888-270-9371 with any questions.

    Toyota T-SB-0296-08 applies to some 2003-2006 Camry vehicles that exhibit a clunk, pop or knock when the steering wheel is turned left or right. It supersedes ST001-06 and explicitly changes the repair from shaft replacement to removal, lubrication and reinstallation of the intermediate shaft. The bulletin does not support extending the condition to 2002 or 2007-2011 Camrys, identifying every bump-related front-end rattle as the shaft, or describing the condition as proven looseness or impending steering loss.

    How to Fix

    First reproduce the noise while turning and isolate it from tie rods, ball joints, rack mounting, strut mounts, sway-bar links and other steering/suspension sources. When the vehicle and symptom match T-SB-0296-08, a qualified technician secures the steering wheel/front wheels, match-marks and removes the intermediate shaft, applies Toyota grease kit 04007-76133 to both machined spline locations, cycles the shaft, reinstalls it to the specified torque and road-tests.

    NHTSA recall 25V869 and Toyota campaigns 25TB15/25TA15 cover certain 2025-2026 Camry Hybrids equipped with specific inverter assemblies. Toyota reported 51,644 potentially involved Camrys produced August 26 through November 18, 2025. An internal inverter bolt may have been improperly tightened, causing incomplete terminal contact or becoming loose. That can cause loss of motive power and, if a short occurs while the vehicle is powered on, a fire. Production date alone does not establish VIN inclusion.

    Common Symptoms

    • Hybrid-system or master warning indications
    • Reduced or lost motive power
    • Possible smoke, heat or burning odor if an electrical short develops

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN through Toyota's official recall lookup and contact a Toyota dealer for the current remedy status. Toyota and NHTSA's latest public recall documents say the remedy is under development and will be free when available; they do not yet publish a completed owner-ready inspection/repair procedure. If hybrid warnings, loss of power, smoke, heat or burning odor occurs, move to a safe location, power the vehicle off, exit and contact emergency services for smoke/fire. Do not open or attempt to torque the high-voltage inverter.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningDo not open or attempt to tighten anything inside the inverter. It contains lethal high voltage and the public recall remedy is still under development.
    • TipCheck the VIN and remedy availability with Toyota; the recall is free, but production dates alone do not prove inclusion or that the remedy is ready for that VIN.

    A repeating owner-report pattern on the XV80 Camry describes a loud high-pitched squeal or squeak from the front driver-side of the vehicle at very low speed (roughly 0-5 mph), typically appearing after the car has been driven for a while and warmed up, and most noticeable when turning or maneuvering in a parking lot without braking. Owners and dealers have traced it to the front driveshaft area at the transaxle seal / driver-side front wheel rather than to the brakes. Six NHTSA complaints across the 2025 and 2026 Camry Hybrid describe this same low-speed front-left squeak, and one 2026 owner reports the dealer performed a repair under Toyota bulletin T-SB-0031-26, with the invoice citing the driver-front wheel bearing. The noise is not a safety failure but it is persistent and often misdiagnosed as brake squeal.

    Common Symptoms

    • High-pitched squeak or squeal from the front driver-side at 1-5 mph
    • Noise only appears after driving 20+ miles or several hours
    • Worse when turning at parking-lot speed with no brake applied
    • Noise goes away when brakes are applied
    • Dealer initially cannot duplicate on a cold vehicle

    How to Fix

    Ask the dealer to check for and apply Toyota bulletin T-SB-0031-26 for the driver-front low-speed squeak before authorizing any brake work. Reproduce the noise for the technician after a long drive - it usually will not appear on a cold car, which is why several owners were told 'could not duplicate'. Depending on the diagnosis the repair is the front driveshaft/transaxle seal area or the driver-front wheel bearing and hub assembly; both are covered under the 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty (the bearing may fall under the 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain coverage).

    NHTSA recall 15V144 and Toyota campaign F0J cover certain 2015 Camry V6 and Camry Hybrid vehicles. Toyota reported that an EPS ECU component may have been damaged during manufacturing and can fail over time, illuminating the EPS warning and causing loss of electric steering assist. Toyota's filing lists 3,220 potentially involved V6 Camrys and 4,027 Camry Hybrids within specified production/VIN ranges. Model year and engine alone do not establish inclusion, and the recall is not a general 2012-2016 EPS-failure program.

    Common Symptoms

    • Electric power-steering warning indicator
    • Sudden loss of electric steering assist
    • Substantially increased steering effort

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN at Toyota's official recall lookup or with a Toyota dealer. For an involved vehicle, the dealer inspects the EPS ECU or steering-column assembly serial number and replaces the EPS ECU free of charge only when the number falls within the affected range. If steering assist is lost, expect substantially higher steering effort, slow down, move to a safe location and arrange service. Do not order an EPS ECU, recall kit, motor or steering column from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningRecall applicability and the replacement decision are serial-number/VIN-specific. Do not buy an ECU or steering column from the model year or warning light alone.
    • TipHave Toyota confirm both VIN inclusion and campaign completion; the recall inspection and any required EPS ECU replacement are free.

    Toyota's Denso low-pressure fuel-pump recall history includes certain 2018-2020 Camry vehicles under original NHTSA recall 20V012 / Toyota 20TA02 and a small omitted population of 2018 Camrys under 25V028 / 25TA01. An affected pump can stop operating, causing warning messages, rough running, engine stall and inability to restart; a stall at higher speed increases crash risk. Applicability depends on the VIN and specific pump population, not model year alone. The prior 2021 scope and recall numbers 20V750/21V251 were incorrect.

    Common Symptoms

    • Warning lights or messages
    • Rough engine running
    • Engine stall
    • Engine may not restart after the pump stops

    How to Fix

    Check the VIN at Toyota's official recall lookup or with a Toyota dealer. If an applicable campaign is open, the dealer replaces the involved low-pressure fuel pump with an improved pump free of charge. If the engine runs rough, warning indicators appear or the vehicle begins losing power, move out of traffic and stop safely; if it stalls, do not rely on it restarting. Do not select a pump or treat P0087/P0230/P0231/P0232 as recall eligibility criteria from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningRecall eligibility is VIN-specific. Do not buy a pump or infer inclusion from the model year, symptoms or a generic fuel-system DTC.
    • TipAsk Toyota to confirm both 20TA02/20V012 and 25TA01/25V028 status for the VIN and document completion of the free improved-pump remedy.

    Toyota's historical Warranty Enhancement ZTT addressed certain 2007-2011 Camry and Camry Hybrid sun-visor assemblies and brackets, and T-SB-0093-09 provides the model-specific removal/installation method. A visor that drops or will not remain stored can obstruct the driver's view, but the failed element may be the visor assembly, bracket, fastener or headliner attachment. ZTT was not a recall and its time-limited warranty extension is no longer current.

    Common Symptoms

    • Sun visor will not remain in its closed/stored position
    • Sun visor or bracket hangs into the driver's view

    How to Fix

    Move or secure a visor that obstructs visibility before driving. Inspect the visor pivot/retention, bracket, fasteners, headliner attachment and any mirror-light wiring. Use T-SB-0093-09's removal/installation method and identify the exact side, color and electrical option by VIN before replacement. A dealer can check service history, but do not present historical ZTT as free current coverage and do not order the prior three applications from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningA visor hanging in the driver's sight line should be safely moved or secured before the vehicle is driven.
    • TipZTT was a historical warranty enhancement, not a recall; verify side, color, mirror wiring and VIN application before buying a visor.

    A Camry owner discussion documents an abnormal navigation-screen appearance. Bubbling, cloudiness, dead touch zones, ghost input, software freezes, display-image faults, contamination, impact damage, connector faults, and head-unit failure are different conditions. One report does not establish a 2013-2020 digitizer-delamination defect or shared screen and head-unit fitment.

    Common Symptoms

    • Bubbles or cloudy appearance beneath the screen surface
    • Dead or erratic touch zones
    • Display image present but touch input unreliable

    How to Fix

    Record the exact head-unit model and panel ID and determine whether the fault is physical separation, touch calibration or input, software operation, display image, or camera and audio operation. Check Toyota software bulletins for the exact unit before disassembly. Do not order a glass overlay using a complete head-unit number or assume that the entire radio must be replaced.

    Owner discussions document cracking or peeling upholstery on individual Camry seats, including a 2015 XLE. They do not establish one 2012-2017 leather or SofTex manufacturing defect, a cold-weather cause, or a universal warranty outcome. Surface-finish wear, seam failure, substrate separation, cuts, abrasion, contamination, heat or UV exposure, and entry-side bolster wear require physical inspection.

    Common Symptoms

    • Cracking or peeling seat surface
    • Damage at a seat seam or entry-side bolster
    • Surface coating separates from the underlying material

    How to Fix

    Identify the VIN, trim, seat position, material, and color, then inspect whether the damage is surface wear, a seam failure, substrate separation, or external damage. Obtain a Toyota or dealer assessment while warranty coverage may apply and consult a qualified upholstery shop for repair options. Any replacement cover is seat-position-, material-, color-, option-, and production-specific.

    Camry owner discussions document headliner fabric detaching on individual vehicles. Loose fabric can reflect degraded backing or adhesive, moisture intrusion, board damage, prior trim removal, or hardware around lamps, handles, and a sunroof. The reports do not establish that all 2002-2011 cars share one defect or progression.

    Common Symptoms

    • Headliner fabric hangs or separates
    • Loose material approaches an occupant or sight line
    • Detachment near edges, lamps, handles, or a sunroof

    How to Fix

    If loose material blocks visibility or contacts occupants, secure the vehicle and arrange trim inspection before driving. Check for water intrusion and damage to the board, retainers, wiring, side-curtain-airbag areas, and sunroof hardware before choosing localized repair, professional re-covering, or exact-application assembly replacement.

    Owners of the 2025 and 2026 Camry report a loud pop, click or crunch from inside the driver's seatback, centered on the lumbar support area, that occurs on acceleration, braking, going over bumps, and when the driver shifts weight. Many describe it as the seatback not fully locking in and physically moving against the lower back. The complaint pattern is dense: eleven separate NHTSA complaints on the 2025 Camry Hybrid and eleven more on the 2026 Camry Hybrid describe the same seat/lumbar popping and shifting. Multiple owners report repeat dealer visits with seat replacements that did not resolve it, and at least one dealer invoice reportedly acknowledged a lumbar frame design flaw. This is distinct from the separate collapsed side-bolster concern that does have a bulletin. As of August 2026 Toyota has issued neither a recall nor a TSB for the lumbar popping, so warranty coverage is inconsistent between dealers.

    Common Symptoms

    • Popping or cracking sound from the driver's seatback when accelerating or braking
    • Lumbar area of the seatback physically shifts against the driver's back
    • Noise worse over bumps and in warm weather
    • Seat feels loose or not locked in
    • Dealer unable to duplicate or repair after multiple visits

    How to Fix

    Ask the dealer to inspect the seatback frame and the lumbar support mechanism, not just the seat cushion - swapping the seat cover or the whole cushion assembly has repeatedly failed to fix it. Get every visit documented on a repair order; the repeat-repair paper trail is what supports a lemon-law or buyback claim, which is the practical remedy several owners have pursued. Do not accept 'could not duplicate' - reproduce the noise with the service advisor in the car, since the pop is weight-transfer dependent and will not appear on a static inspection. File an NHTSA complaint to build pressure toward a bulletin.

    Toyota T-SB-0039-15 documents some 2007-2011 Camry and Camry Hybrid vehicles, within specified VIN ranges, whose instrument-panel pad can become sticky, shiny, degraded or cracked after heat, humidity and light exposure. Aftermarket dashboard dressings can also create a shiny appearance and must be distinguished during inspection. Customer Support Program ZJA was narrower, covering specified 2010-2011 Camry and 2009-2011 Camry Hybrid vehicles; its primary coverage ended November 26, 2019 and its secondary coverage was ten years from first use, so the published time limits are expired as of 2026.

    Common Symptoms

    • Instrument-panel pad feels sticky
    • Instrument panel appears unusually shiny
    • Surface is degraded or cracked
    • Glare or reflection from the affected panel

    How to Fix

    Confirm the model year, VIN range, surface condition and whether an aftermarket dressing caused the appearance. For a bulletin-matching degraded panel, Toyota's repair procedure replaces the instrument-panel pad and related one-time-use items as specified. Ask a Toyota dealer to check the VIN for any current assistance, but do not represent CSP ZJA as active. Avoid solvent or protectant experiments on the affected surface, and do not buy a dashboard cover from this card as a substitute for diagnosis.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningDo not apply alcohol, solvent or dressing before inspection; Toyota notes that aftermarket dressing can create a shiny appearance that must be distinguished from the bulletin condition.
    • TipHave Toyota check the VIN and first-use date, but expect CSP ZJA's published coverage periods to be expired as of 2026.

    A 2007 Camry owner discussion documents air-conditioning compressor concerns. Loss of cooling, belt noise, or compressor-area noise does not establish compressor seizure or internal contamination. Refrigerant charge, leaks, electrical control, sensors, relays, clutch or pulley design where applicable, compressor condition, belt drive, condenser airflow, and hybrid versus gasoline architecture require configuration-specific diagnosis.

    Common Symptoms

    • Warm air with A/C requested
    • Noise from the compressor or belt area
    • A/C operation that changes with engine speed or command

    How to Fix

    Identify the exact powertrain and HVAC configuration, inspect the belt drive where fitted, recover and measure refrigerant using approved equipment, leak-test the system, and follow the applicable Toyota electrical and pressure diagnostic procedure. If internal compressor damage is proven, a qualified A/C technician should determine contamination remediation and exact components; do not use a universal oil quantity or parts bundle from this report.

    Toyota T-SB-0080-19 Rev1 documents an environmental condition in particular geographic areas where an insect nest may obstruct the HVAC evaporator drain hose on some 2007-2022 Camry and Camry Hybrid vehicles. Reduced condensate drainage can contribute to water backing up at the HVAC case, but wet carpet alone does not prove this cause; windshield/body/cowl entry, A/C case or hose displacement and coolant leakage must be distinguished. The bulletin is not a recall and lists the optional service as not applicable to warranty.

    Common Symptoms

    • Wet carpet near the HVAC case
    • Little or no evaporator condensate draining beneath the vehicle while the A/C operates

    How to Fix

    Identify the liquid and entry path before disturbing the HVAC drain. Check for normal condensate discharge while the A/C operates, inspect the drain hose/case connection and separately test windshield, cowl, body-seam, door and heater-core/coolant possibilities. If an insect nest obstructs a covered vehicle's drain, follow T-SB-0080-19 and the VIN-specific repair manual to remove the hose and install the optional ARINIX tip with the exact hose/grommet procedure required for production origin and model year. The tip contains pesticide and requires the bulletin's PPE/handling rules. Dry the carpet and underlay fully and inspect any wet connectors. Do not probe the case, flush it, or buy the prior cleaner/hose from this card.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningWet carpet is not proof of a clogged A/C drain. Identify the liquid and entry path so a windshield/body leak or heater-core coolant leak is not missed.
    • TipToyota's optional ARINIX tip contains pesticide and has model-specific hose and PPE requirements; use T-SB-0080-19 rather than probing or chemically flushing the HVAC case.

    Toyota T-SB-0010-20 covers 2007-2017 Camry and Camry Hybrid HVAC odors naturally occurring from the system or related environmental factors. Outside/interior odors can accumulate on the evaporator and be released as its temperature changes; air fresheners, animals, dirt or trash may also contribute. Toyota says A/C-system odor is a normal characteristic and the maintenance procedure may reduce intensity but will not eliminate it. The bulletin does not identify mold growth as a confirmed defect.

    Common Symptoms

    • Naturally occurring or environmental odor emitted from the HVAC vents

    How to Fix

    First determine whether the odor matches Toyota's naturally occurring/environmental condition; constant odor or debris-driven odor may require separate repair-manual diagnosis. For a matching condition, park with the HVAC in outside/fresh-air mode, replace the HVAC filter annually or every 10,000 miles with the specified charcoal filter, and, if odor persists, have the evaporator cleaned with Toyota's A/C refresher kit or equivalent on an annual/biannual schedule based on climate and preference.

    A coolant mark at the 2AR-FE water pump does not by itself prove that the pump has failed. Toyota T-SB-0103-20 Rev1 applies to 2008-2024 Camry and says a small amount of coolant can pass the mechanical seal and leave dry residue after it evaporates. Replacement is supported when the pump has an active wet leak, the reservoir is low and the pump is actively leaking, or the pulley/bearing has excessive free play or does not turn smoothly. The bulletin does not establish a recurring Camry weak point or a 60,000-90,000-mile failure range.

    Common Symptoms

    • Wet coolant or active drips at the water pump
    • Coolant reservoir below the low mark with an active pump leak
    • Excessive water-pump pulley or bearing free play
    • Water-pump bearing that feels rough or does not rotate smoothly
    • Dry coolant residue that must be distinguished from an active leak

    How to Fix

    Inspect the rest of the cooling system before condemning the pump. Check reservoir level, pulley/bearing play and smoothness, and press a dry paper towel against cleaned pump-area residue. Dry residue alone does not require replacement; wet coolant, an active drip, excessive bearing play, or rough rotation does. If replacement is confirmed, use the model-year repair procedure and verify the pump and separately sold gasket by VIN. Toyota lists exact pump assembly 16100-09515, but the part page itself requires a vehicle-fitment check.

    A coolant mark near the 2GR-FE water pump does not by itself establish pump failure. Toyota T-SB-0103-20 Rev1 applies to Camry beginning with model year 2008 and explains that normal mechanical-seal operation or temporary debris can leave dry residue. Replacement is supported by an active wet leak, low reservoir level together with an active pump leak, excessive pulley or bearing free play, or a bearing that does not turn smoothly. For a 2007 Camry, use the applicable model-year repair manual; the bulletin does not establish the prior prevalence or very-low-mileage failure claims.

    Common Symptoms

    • Wet coolant or active drips at the water pump
    • Low coolant reservoir together with an active pump leak
    • Excessive water-pump pulley or bearing free play
    • Water-pump bearing that feels rough or does not rotate smoothly
    • Dry pink residue that must be distinguished from a current leak

    How to Fix

    Inspect the full cooling system before condemning the pump. Check coolant level and other leak sources, test the pump bearing for free play and smooth rotation, clean the residue, and use a dry paper towel to determine whether coolant is still wet. Dry residue alone does not require replacement. If an active leak or bearing failure is confirmed, follow the model-year repair procedure and verify the pump and separately sold gasket by VIN.

Toyota asks technicians to document the pump and electrical connectors and contact Technical Assistance through a TAS case before diagnosing or repairing the vehicle. The Tech Tip does not extend the condition to 2018-2021 Camry vehicles and does not identify a replacement pump, gasket, coolant, or universal repair.

    Common Symptoms

    • Engine water-pump coolant leak
    • Malfunction indicator lamp
    • Stored DTC P26CA14 or P26CA31

    How to Fix

    Record the exact DTC suffix and freeze-frame data, inspect the engine water pump and connector area without erasing evidence, and take clear photographs of the pump and electrical connectors. An authorized Toyota technician following T-TT-0733-23 should create a TAS case and contact TAS before diagnosis or repair.

    Ten separate NHTSA complaints on the 2025 Camry Hybrid describe the windshield cracking with no evidence of a rock strike. Owners report cracks originating at the driver's-side edge of the glass or at the rear-view-mirror mount and running across the field of view, in several cases immediately after an automated car wash or a rapid temperature change, and in several cases while simply parked or driving with no impact heard. Multiple owners report the failure recurring after replacement, and one reports a glass technician stating the OEM glass is too thin to accept a chip repair. Because the car uses a camera-and-radar ADAS package mounted to the windshield, replacement is not a simple glass swap.

    Common Symptoms

    • Crack appearing with no rock strike or impact sound
    • Crack originating at the edge of the windshield or at the mirror mount
    • Crack spreading rapidly across the driver's line of sight
    • Failure shortly after an automated car wash or temperature swing
    • Chips cannot be repaired and require full replacement

    How to Fix

    Photograph the crack origin point immediately - a crack that starts at the glass edge or at the mirror mount with no impact point is the evidence needed to argue a defective-glass warranty claim rather than a road-hazard insurance claim. Take it to the Toyota dealer first and ask for a warranty determination in writing before going to a glass chain. Any replacement must be followed by a full recalibration of the forward-facing camera for Toyota Safety Sense (pre-collision, lane tracing, dynamic radar cruise); skipping calibration leaves the driver-assist systems mis-aimed. If you carry comprehensive coverage with glass, a zero-deductible glass rider is worth adding given the repeat-failure pattern.

    Verify the factory paint code and contact an authorized Toyota dealer for VIN, date-of-first-use and condition eligibility. Only an authorized Toyota dealer, or a permitted Toyota Certified Collision Center under the program rules, can confirm coverage. If the condition is verified and still covered, Toyota repaints the specific affected panel rather than the entire vehicle. Published primary coverage periods have expired; secondary coverage is 10 years from first use, so do not promise current coverage without the VIN/date check. Do not buy the prior sanding/paint products or attempt touch-up before that assessment.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipPhotograph the peeling, door-jamb paint code, VIN and date-of-first-use information before visiting the dealer; current eligibility depends on the exact vehicle and coverage clock.
    • WarningDo not sand, touch up or repaint the area before Toyota's coverage assessment, because the program requires condition verification and photographs.

    Toyota T-SB-0330-17 covers some 2018 Camrys with the A25A-FKS engine and UA80E transaxle that exhibit a shift shock on initial startup or a delay followed by a shock when reaccelerating after slowing to about 5-10 mph. Applicability is limited by production change and VIN; the bulletin does not support a 2019-2023 defect claim or every hesitation, harsh shift, or gear-hunting complaint.

    Common Symptoms

    • Shift shock on initial startup
    • Delay followed by a shock when reaccelerating after slowing to about 5-10 mph

    How to Fix

    Confirm the exact engine, transaxle, production VIN, symptom, and current calibration against Toyota T-SB-0330-17. A qualifying vehicle follows the bulletin's Health Check and Engine/ECT ECU reprogramming procedure with battery support and warranty-label documentation. Other symptoms, DTCs, leaks, or nonqualifying VINs require normal diagnosis rather than assuming this calibration applies.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • TipBring the VIN and a repeatable description of the startup or 5-10 mph reacceleration condition to a Toyota service department so bulletin eligibility can be checked before any repair is authorized.

    Toyota T-SB-0034-14 Rev2 covers certain 2012-2014 Camrys with VDS BF1FK and the U760E automatic transmission. A matching vehicle may have a brief intermittent torque-converter flex-lock shudder under light load at approximately 25-50 mph, typically before an upshift. This bulletin does not apply to the V6/U660E or to vibrations that fail the road-test gate. Historical Warranty Enhancement ZE5 is expired.

    Common Symptoms

    • Brief intermittent shudder under light load at approximately 25-50 mph
    • Shudder typically most noticeable just before an upshift

    How to Fix

    Confirm VIN/VDS, engine and U760E transmission, bring the vehicle to operating temperature and reproduce the exact light-load 25-50 mph brief shudder. If the gate does not match, continue normal vibration diagnosis. For a matching condition, T-SB-0034-14 specifies torque-converter replacement, replacement of two pan magnets with four new magnets, required fluid/gaskets, ECM calibration update when not current, ECT reset and test drive. Request a current estimate; do not assume expired ZE5 makes the repair free.

    Owner tips & cautions

    • WarningThe Toyota bulletin is for certain VDS BF1FK/U760E 2.5L vehicles; it does not support applying this repair to a V6/U660E Camry.
    • TipHistorical ZE5 coverage is expired; verify the exact bulletin gate first and obtain a current repair estimate.

    A large and consistent cluster of owner reports on the redesigned XV80 Camry describes the front bumper cover separating from the body directly beneath the headlamp, usually on the driver's side first. Owners report a visible gap opening between the bumper cover and the fender/headlight, the cover protruding or drooping, and in the worst cases the fascia partially detaching while driving. The root cause reported by dealers and body shops is the plastic retaining clips and the mounting bracket under the headlight, which do not hold the cover's weight; re-seating the clips is a temporary fix and the gap returns. Twenty separate NHTSA complaints on the 2025 Camry Hybrid mention the bumper, with several owners stating the dealer confirmed it as a known concern while declining warranty repair because no recall or bulletin exists. Some owners also report the failure recurring after a collision-shop repair using OEM retainers.

    Common Symptoms

    • Visible gap between front bumper cover and fender near the headlight
    • Bumper cover protruding or sagging on the driver's side
    • Bumper cover pops loose again shortly after being re-clipped
    • Uneven panel gaps around the headlamp
    • Bumper partially detached after highway driving

    How to Fix

    Have the dealer inspect the bumper cover retainers and the plastic support bracket beneath the headlamp rather than simply pushing the cover back in. The durable repair is replacement of the bumper mounting bracket / filler support and the broken retaining clips, not re-clipping. Because the vehicle is new, insist this is handled under the 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty and get the diagnosis written on the repair order; several owners were turned away as 'body work' and had to escalate to Toyota corporate. File an NHTSA complaint - Toyota has not issued a recall or TSB for this as of August 2026.

    A 2018 Camry owner discussion documents perceived wind noise at highway speed. One report does not establish a six-year door-seal defect or identify the source. An open window or roof, weatherstrip condition, glass or door alignment, mirror or A-pillar trim, windshield installation, body gaps, prior collision repair, roof accessories, tires, crosswind, and normal aerodynamic turbulence can sound similar.

    Common Symptoms

    • Wind-like hiss or whistle at highway speed
    • Noise that changes with speed, wind direction, or crosswind

    How to Fix

    Reproduce and record the noise at a consistent speed and wind direction, confirm every opening is closed, and localize the source before changing parts. Inspect weatherstrips, glass and door alignment, mirror and pillar trim, windshield edges, body seams, roof accessories, tires, and prior repairs. Do not add seals or adjust doors until the source is demonstrated because changes can affect closure and drainage.
