Faults:

Pulls to the left, especially at freeway speeds. Replaced original tires at 15000 miles. Two tires were completely worn smooth. Have aligned wheels 3 times. Dealer says he cannot duplicate symptoms.

Transmission will not shift into third gear until engine is warm. Usually requires about 2 miles driving in winter. Dealer said he could not duplicate problem.

General Comments:

I have been very disappointed in Toyota's inability or unwillingness to fix these problems. I will probably go back to Honda.

Faults:

Driver's side seat belt broke, easily fixed.

Cup holder for back seats broke off.

Emission controls needed 'tweaking' several times.

Slower acceleration than other cars.

General Comments:

This car is a CE with most of the standard features on the LE (CD player, power windows, cruise control, etc.), so driving is enjoyable.

Steering is good, and the car handles well in most conditions.

The Toyota dealer near me is very kind, even if I had to go up more than I wanted to for a problem. This car for the most part is very reliable, so it only had to go in a few times.

Good fuel economy, averaging 22.3 MPG city (highway unknown).

Faults:

Front end makes a rattling noise when I hit bumps in the road.

Seats wear badly.

General Comments:

This car is very nice.

It came equipped with a V6 and man is it nice. When you want to pass someone with this motor it's no problem.

My aunt has the same car with the 4 cylinder and lacks some pep. Not so with the V6.

The interior is leather and although nice, the drivers side is wearing fast.

The cabin is very roomy. The backseat can handle 3 people just fine.

I'm not going to tell you that it's Toyota's fault because the console broke. I know that's due to user error.

As far as I have seen this car has been a real joy.

Faults:

Multiple problems with brakes over past four years.

Poor quality on suspension (i.e. always had ongoing rattling and noises)

Engine recently died at 157,000 kilometers.

General Comments:

Previously owned a 1990 Toyota Corolla which I had purchased new as well. I regret ever trading that vehicle in for the Camry. I had always heard raving reviews on the comfort and reliability of a Toyota Camry. Unfortunately, the vehicle which I purchased was nothing more than a headache and more recently a significant drain to my hard earned cash.

The engine died at 157,000 kilometers. When I had the cause explained to me by a mechanic, it was noted that there was no oil in the engine. Unfortunately no light indicator had given me an indication. I admit I was not religious about oil changes, but I would never exceed 12-15000 kms in a oil change. It seems kind of strange that my Corolla received the same neglect from me and still drove beautifully after 8 years and a higher reading on the odometer.
