Camry :: 2009 Toyota Unable To Start - Light On Rear Windshield Defroster Blinking

First time I'm having an issue with my Toyota Camry 2009 model.

See video: [URL] .....

I'm wondering if this is a starter issue because the battery seems to be fine (can turn on radio, lights are working). The strange thing i noticed was that the light on the rear windshield defroster was blinking. I haven't turned that on in months.

Also, is this covered under warranty ? I bought the extended warranty when i purchased the vehicle in 2008. If i'm not mistaken I'm still covered under it. Is there a place (online) where i could check my extended warranty period ?

Prius (Gen 3) :: Can't Keep Film Off Of The Inside Of Windshield

When I first got my car I had an issue trying to keep the film off of the inside of the windshield. Even with Windex it would leave streaks. I found out that old newspaper worked best.

A couple of weekends ago I noticed that the dash part closest to the windshield looked like it was beginning to discolor ever so slightly. I grabbed a bottle of the Armor All interior spray, wet a rag and applied a thin film to this part of the dash and then the rest of the dash.

After the first day of sitting in the hot sun in an asphalt parking lot at work I again have a film on the windshield.

Toyota - Camry :: Back Windshield Was Totally Cracked But Still In Shape After Snowfall

I have a 2005 Camry LE 4D Sedan. Last week, we had a severe winter storm down here for around 4 days. My car was covered with ice all around for around 3 days before I cleaned up the ice with a piece of plastic scraper and the built-in heater in back windshield last Wednesday. Then I used the car for two day's daily commute and weekend shopping without seen any problem.

But this Monday morning, I found out that the back windshield was totally cracked but still in shape, fully with fine cracks all over the place. It looks just like someone used a small hammer cracked the back windshield carefully and did not break it. Then I wanted to drive to a Toyota dealership in town to have them check it out and fix it. But on the way to the dealership place, the back windshield started falling down pieces by pieces. Each piece is in size of green pea.

In one Toyota dealership, I was told that this kind of damage is not covered by Toyota warrantee. And then this was confirmed by North America Toyota Customer Service Center. I do not believe that this should be the case! It definitely caused by the bad quality of the back windshield. It should be the defect during the manufacturing of this piece of windshield. I am just out of luck and got this bad quality windshield.

Golf IV R32 :: Thin Oil Film Starting To Run Down Both Rear Shocks?

Installed four Gruven rear adjustable control arms and during a visual inspection noticed thin oil film starting to run down both rear shocks. Doesn't surprise me as one of the previous owners installed them minus the rear perches. Anyway, suggestions on replacing just the rears? Cannot find KW replacements, if they even exist. They should but dealing with KW in the past it would not surprise me if they said I have to purchase an entire new set up. Koni Sports? No likey Bilstein.

Camry :: Cloudy Film Seems To Be Inside Of Each Headlight

I just purchased a used 07 Camry. We love it but the headlights look very strange. There is a cloudy film on what seems to be the inside of each headlight, some areas are worse than others.

I would like to replace them (mostly for resale value later on) but wanted to post here before I drop a whole bunch of money on new headlamp mounts.

Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Rear Window Film Bubbling / Peeling Off

I have a 2011 sonata and the rear window film is bubbling/peeling off the window to the point where it is hard to see through. The car is a month passed the warranty. I can't tell if this film is part of the defroster grid, or something separate that can be peeled off easily and replaced, or if I need a new window.

Camry 2012+ :: Protective Film On Climate Control Panel Cloudy?

I just bought a 2014.5 Camry SE. I am really loving this car but I have a question. The black shiny climate control panel (manual climate control) seems a little cloudy. I was wondering if this has a protective film from the factory that needs to be peeled off. I cannot tell by looking at it, and don't want to mess with it until I know.

Toyota - Camry :: 2005 - Rear Calipers Stuck Open And Rear Brakes Not Working And Rusted

I have a 2005 Toyota Camry that we purchased 14 months ago. When purchased it had bad brakes so the dealer replaced the rotors and calipers at their expense. A month ago I took the car in for a routine oil change and was notified that my rear calipers were stuck open and that my rear brakes were not working and rusted. The rotors look hardly worn, the one on the passenger side has some deep grooves in it and the driver side is pitted. We feel that we had poor work done when the brakes were replaced and that the back never worked. After the brake job was done we would get some "chinging" noise in the back brakes and I had them inspected twice and they said everything was fine. But now we find out they weren't fine.

Toyota :: 2014 Camry Rear Defogger Stopped Working?

My rear defogger stopped working after I got the car back from collision repair. I'm trying to see if I can resolve this matter by myself before having to take it back. I've noticed that there is no rear defogger contact on the power grid. None that I can see anyway. I was trying to locate a manual or where it was located if there even is one. Or Why my defogger stopped working.

Toyota - Camry :: 2001 - Rear Oxygen Sensors Keeps Failing

I drive a 2001 Toyota Camry with about 110,000 miles. About a year ago the check engine light came on and indicated a problem with the rear O2 sensor (the exact OBD code escapes me right now). Had the sensor replaced and a month later the same one failed. Replaced it again and 2 weeks later it failed again. I am now on the fourth rear O2 sensor and the check engine light is on again with the same code. So, clearly the problem isn't the actual sensor. I have heard it might be the ECU, but what else could be causing this type of problem?

Toyota - Camry :: Low Frequency Vibration Coming From Left Rear

I own a 99 Toyota Camry w/ 122k miles on it. About a year and a half ago I started hearing a low frequency vibration coming from left rear. A few mechanics said it was a worn bearing and I may want to get that fixed in near future. Well here it is 2011, I can't stand the sound anymore and am concerned what other damage (if any) I may have put on my car.
