What owners wrote
When I was driving my 2017 toyota camry driving to the car wash, coming out from the drive through I put the car on drive heading to the vacuum, my car take off I hit the break I couldn't stop it. I hit a car coming out the parking lot, in the mist of me pulling to the vacuum, hit another car there was next to my car, plus a pedestrian there was outside of her car, in hit her door than colasp to the vacuum, only thing that stop my car from going through that building is when I hit the vacuum.
When backing up and applying the brakes there's a loud clunking, most noticeable coming from the left front wheel. I've been told the noise could be the wrong brake pads were installed, or possibly the installation of the pads wasn't done correctly by the technician, causing the pads to not be locked into place on the brake caliber.
