WHEN PULLING OFF THE CAR FROM THE GARAGE ON MONDAY MORNING THE STEERING WHEEL WAS HARD TO STEER. I RODE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. I LEFT THE CAR WITH THEM FOR DIAGNOSIS. RECEIVED A CALL INFORMING THAT THE POWER STEERING COMPUTER WAS DAMAGED. I ALSO TRIED TO CONTACT THE CAR BRAND OFFICE AT PR FOR COMPLAINING WITHOUT SUCESS; WAS NOT ABLE TO GE THORUGH AFTER HOLDING FOR 30+ MINUTES, TWICE. THE CAR STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP; THE REPLACEMENT PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND HAVE TO BE MAILED FROM SOME PLACE IN THE US.

ARRIVED AT TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO PICK UP MY 2007 CAMRY HYBRID AFTER SERVICING AND WORK ON FLOOR MAT AND "ELECTRONIC STEERING ASSEMBLY" RECALLS. TO THIS POINT I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR WHATSOEVER, EVER. DEALER TOLD ME IT WAS UNABLE TO BEGIN WORK ON THE STEERING ASSEMBLY RECALL BECAUSE THE PART HAD NOT ARRIVED FROM TOYOTA YET, BUT THE CAR WAS SAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL THE PART ARRIVED. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR, THE STEERING WHEEL MOVED 100 DEGREES RIGHT, THEN LEFT, ON ITS OWN. THEN I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL MORE THAN 1-2 INCHES IN EITHER DIR…
