07 Camry issues - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I acquired a brand new 07 Camry LE on Tuesday and drove it around the block. No problems.

The next day, I noticed that the brakes squealed (more of a whine, actually) somewhat when I was trying to go from slow to a complete stop. It continued to do this the whole day (not always, but it was definitely still annoying).

I figured maybe it would go away. The next day, however, it didn't. In fact, at times, the brake noise would be pretty loud such that I'm sure all the drivers around me could hear it. And then another noise was added... when locking my steering wheel in a turn position (such as exiting onto the beltline), it created a very audible "hum" that would last until the wheels were again straightened.

So, this is a bit annoying to me, since I never detected problems like this while test driving Camrys, and since the dealer is 1.5 hours away. What sort of options do I have? (This car is now 3 days old.)

Thanks in advance!

First call the dealership...talk to the Service Manager. (The other "Reps" will not know anything. Set something up. Then take it in.
