CarComplaints.com Notes: The Camry Hybrid's first year is a mixed bag of brake actuators failing and power issues. The hybrid version even shares the same excessive oil consumption as its non-hybrid counterpart. And it hardly gets enough fuel efficiency gains to warrant the extra costs up-front or during repairs.
Toyota seemed to get their act together with later model years, so if you're looking for a used Camry Hybrid I suggest looking there.

I own a 2007 Toyota Camry Hybrid. This is my fifth Toyota and I have always been a fan. But, now that the brake system for my hybrid is failing and Toyota will do nothing about this dangerous problem. Needless to say, I am very upset. What has to happen? Do I have to die or kill someone before Toyota pays out?
This brake actuator assembly seems to be specific to the Camry Hybrids 2007-2008. As of today, there have been 59 reported problems to the NHTSA regarding the brake actuator system and possibly 30,000 other cars that are affected. Obviously, it's all about the money because Toyota would have to pay almost $1 billion to fix all of these cars. They are going to skip and dance around the issue so as not to have to lose that much money.
A class action lawsuit is brewing. I have added my name to the class action lawsuit. The link is: http://www.chimicles.com/toyota-camry-hybrid-brake-actuator-defect-investigation. Also, you can go on line and report your complaint to the NHTSA. The agency is looking into the issue and meeting with Toyota.
