CarComplaints.com Notes: An increasing number of Toyotas are experiencing excessive oil consumption and the 2007 Camry seems to be leading the charge.
Owners are reporting that their engines are deprived of oil halfway through their maintenance schedules and in some cases the damage is so bad that entirely new engines need to be installed, paid out of pocket. The issue may be a result of defective piston rings.
Toyota has issued a TSB for this problem, but maintains their stance that vehicles equipped with a 2AZ-FE engine are burning through a “normal†amount of oil.

One day the trunk lid would not stay closed after releasing it open, using the remote key fob 'trunk open' button. Had to tie down the trunk lid with rope; definitely a problem being out on the road at the time, away from home.
Later upon inspection, found the electric release mechanism inside the latch assembly on the lid was stuck in the open position. I fiddled with it, even dismantled it trying to get it to reset normally after being electrically operated - all to no avail. Only way to use trunk normally was to disconnect electric connector to the assembly (disabling the electric release function). It still works normally using the key, the mechanical cable release connected to lever near the drivers seat (and by the emergency release handle next to the latch assembly).
A new assembly was quoted by dealer here in Ontario Canada at $383.
I recently came across another person in my neighbourhood experiencing the same issue on their Corolla. The dealer Service Advisor says their mechanics have tried to fix about 10 of these assemblies with out success.
