NHTSA complaint: 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY — STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS
I BOUGHT A CERTIFIED 2005 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE FROM AUTOWEST HONDA, ROSEVILLE. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR HAD NO ACCIDENTS AND THE CAR IS CLEAN PER THE CARFAX. I HAVE HAD THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT BELT REPLACED AND NOW THE DRIVER FRONT SEAT BELT IS GOING OUT. I RECEIVED A POST CARD FOR A FREE APPRAISAL AT 60,000 MILES AND I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THE CAR HAS BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE FRONT END FRAME IS BENT AND PARTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND THE CAR IS MAYBE WORTH $8,000 AND THE CAR SHOULD OF BEEN SOLD AS SALVAGE AND NOT CERTIFIED CAR. THE FRONT BUMPER IS COMING OFF AND ALSO THE PAINT CHIPPED OFF ON THE SIDE OF THE ACCIDENT. THE PAINT IS DIFFERENT IN THE FRONT FROM THE HOOD. I DO NOT KNOW THE DATE OF THE INCIDENT DATE, AS FOR IT HAPPENED PRIOR TO ME PURCHASING THE CAR. *TR
