RE: 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY HYBRID: A ROCK PASSED THROUGH A MANUFACTURED HOLE IN THE GRILL, HIT THE RADIATOR AND PUT A HOLE IN THE RADIATOR CAUSING A HYBRID SYSTEM FAILURE. TOYOTA ASSERTS THAT THIS WAS A OCCURRENCE THAT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY DESIGN FLAW, GIVEN THAT NO OTHER REPORTS TO THIS EFFECT HAVE BEEN RECEIVED. THE RADIATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $600. FORTUNATELY, WE WERE JUST MINUTES AWAY FROM A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND WERE ABLE TO DRIVE IT OVER. WE HAVE OWNERSHIP OF THE DAMAGED RADIATOR. *JB

VISIBILITY:POWER WINDOW DEVICES AND CONTROLS
THE MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH STARTED SMOKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON 6/18/12. AT THE TIME, I WASN'T AWARE OF ANY ISSUES WITH THE POWER SWITCHES. SO MY FAMILY AND I JUMPED OUT THE CAR AND CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. THEY DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND THE CAR TOWED TO TOYOTA. THE POWER SWITCH HAD BURNED UP AND SOME OF THE DOOR PANEL WAS BURNED AS WELL. WENT BACK TO GET MY CAR, AND THE BATTERY WENT OUT AS WELL. TODAY, 10/12/12, MY CAR IS STILL IN THE SHOP AT TOYOTA. IT HAS BEEN A LONG, DRAWN OUT PROCESS, BUT I'LL BE GLAD WHEN I RECEIVE MY REIMBURSEMENT AND CAR. I AM A LOYAL TOYOTA CUSTOMER AND THIS IS MY FIRST INCIDENT WITH THEM. *TR
