Yeah I've seen that story on the news, I expect a letter in the mail soon about the recall. I did read somewhere that it gets worse as the miles are packed on, so I'm thinking I have some time before I need to really worry about it. People are talking about how this hurts Toyota's credibility but I don't think it does. They're a good company and they'll fix it, I'm not worried.

It really depends on how long and IF Toyota denied the reports and knew it was a problem. But an example of how Toyota has taken care of their customers is in regards to the '95 to 2004 Tacoma frame rail rust recall. I have a '98 Tacoma that was part of the potential frame rail recall There was a manufacturing problem and the frame rails were not properly coated against corrosion and have been rusting out. For the next 5 years Toyota will inspect for frame rail rust. If your truck was purchased prior to March '09 and it is found to have the damage, Toyota will pay you 1.5 times Kelly Blue Book value rated at "Excellent" condition regardless of the condition it is in.

Have you seen this? http://money.cnn.com/2010/01/26/news/co ... htm?hpt=T2
I did not see what year your camery is so I do not know if this involves your car but it is a very serious defect.
The article states that "certain 2007-2010 Camry" were being recalled.
Hope yours is not included.

Okay Zouga - I might have been in a bit of a hurry when I put that on so maybe speedy would be the better choice! Hee Hee
Just hope Mike gets it fixed so it does not give him problems.

More info has come out and it's a "wear" issue with the pedal, supposed to be a fairly easy fix...about 30 minutes. Though dealers do not have the parts and haven't been trained yet! lol At least it's a wear issue... so my brand new car should (knock on wood) be just fine until they start fixing em.

They are saying in the UK that it is only cars produced before 2005
