Can you let me know exactly what page that is? My salesman also told me it couldn't be done. Now I know he just had my best interests in mind, but I do intend to give him a friendly swat on the nose for lying to me (though he was probably just repeating what his boss told him to say).

I spend several hours of every weekday running errands, and I'm sometimes in and out within a few minutes, and I'm just not gonna put it on every time under those circumstances. Most of the time I do, but it's my choice, not Toyota's.

 

Check page 153 of your Camry manual. Section b & c both state:

"The vehicle speed linked seat belt reminder buzzer can be disabled. For details, contact your Toyota dealer."

 

If I put something heavy on the passenger seat (i.e. groceries) the car thinks that the passenger is not wearing the seat belt and the annoying dinging starts. Anyone have this problem? Then I am driving along trying to shove everything onto the floor.

 

It is annoying, but it quits after about 30-45 seconds

 

In the end, I just got it disabled by the dealer during its 5K maintenance, at no cost.
It took a LOT of convincing/threatening as well as showing them the manual page etc, but in the end they did succumb. Just be persistent.

 

Same here...however, had it done before delivery.

 

just had the dam ding disconnected by dealer.Cost $40.00 and no extenders or warrenty problems

 

Your lucky. Rosner Toyota (Stafford, VA) wanted $95 to do it - and that was AFTER I complained about how it was written into the handbook/manual that it could be done. They didn't even have a owners manual on hand to reference - they used mine! And still wanted to charge me for the 3 minute "hook up". Heck, my car was in for regular service. How long would it had taken? I'm most likely moving to another dealer for service and otehr things...

 

$95 for just a single change? Wow... I was under the impression most dealers didn't charge for these customizations if it was during your first visit (or one of the first visits) and you had bought your car there, kind of a "loss leader" to ensure you'll stay with them for all your repairs during the life of your car (which I am obviously NOT going to do, but that's beside the point).

Now that I think of it, I actually had 3 changes/mods made at no costs...
