1996 Toyota Camry developed problems stalling out in traffic and would buck like a Bronco sometimes when driving (before stalling). Dealership repairs cost me thousands of dollars. Very dangerous trying to get from here to there in this vehicle. Technicians kept taking the car back down to the engine block. Sent a letter to Toyota requesting they examine the invoices and repairs on a car with such low mileage. The sent a letter back. One line-"nothing in these invoices is under warranty" Toyota was not interested in fixing their mistakes and was not interested in learning from them. They were not interested in the safety of their customers. I knew at that time they were interested in growth and profit and let it be known to my friends and family that they should not buy Toyota vehicles.
I have engine gelling that has led to engine damage severe enough that I will either need a new short block or new engine (according to Toyota). Even with all of the work that I have already had on the vehicle, the engine is not in proper running order and will take thousands of dollars to remedy the issue.
The idle speed control valve was replaced because the vehicle had difficulties starting. The problem still occurred and was replaced 7 more times. The consumer found information on a Toyota report which indicated that the egr valve and the fuel pressure regulator were preventing the vehicle from starting.
