What owners say about the suspension

Verbatim from NHTSA complaints, newest first
“the left front suspension lower arm making weird noises while driving. Looks like it is related to open recall on same model "t he left front suspension lower arm may have an improperly manufactured bolt hole where it connects to the ball joint." But my vehicle in not included in open recall - called up toyota customer service and they asked me to go thru NHTSA.”

“Starting in 2023, around 80,000 miles, my 2014 Toyota Camry Hybrid has started pulling to either side under braking. I replaced the pads & rotors at my local Toyota dealer in September and it actually made the problem worse. November 22 of this year, the master technician at my dealership found multiple lower suspension bolts loose. They re-torqued everything to spec and the issue has not been resolved. I have reached out to Toyota corporate and informed them of the issue. Parts have been ordered for a separate Customer Support Program to fix the brake booster system, which makes noise in the pedal, but is independent of this complaint. We will be reinspecting in greater detail to provide information to Toyota.”

“I have checked and haven't see any recalls for this issue. and i've paid several hundred dollars to fix these issues several time The Sway Bars from Both side of my suspension system have failed twice, as in coming loose and you can hear it clanking loosely 1. had left side it fixed in or 2016/2017 2. had right side fixed in 2020 3. Now having the same issue, but not sure which one it is, because i haven't had time take it to a repair shop again. I am sure my car 2014 model VIN # isn't the only one that has had or is having this issue. I don't have all this money to keep getting this fixed, it's a defect somewhere with the front end of this model year car. Its like whatever is holding this up, there is something wrong with that mechanism.”

“The contact owns a 2014 Toyota Camry. The contact stated that while the vehicle was at AAA for an inspection, the technician informed her that the control arm had detached from the ball joint. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.”

“While driving at highway speeds the steering seems to "stick" a little. I would explain it as the front end seems to pull from side to side, and then the drive wheels seen to stick so you have to fight with the steering wheel to get the vehicle to maintain lane travel. The dash lights came on that same night when this started. Maintenance req, airbag, seatbelt, battery, brake, low tire pressure, and traction Control lights all came on. They remain on and have not gone off.”
