"Don't buy you will not be pleased, believe me"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Air didn't work well from beginning.

Car doors hard to shut, hard to open.

Automatic window drivers side failed (to open or close properly).

Currently shifting hard - jerking at shifts. Doggy.

Paint chips easily.

Lots of road noise.

Tires wore out in less than 20,000 miles.

General comments?

Some nice stuff, but WAY too expensive to be noisy, tinny little hard to open doors, cheap paint, doggy in traffic, feel like you are pushing it down the road car.

Phooey.

It's the way you drive it. If you take care of it, it will take care of you.

The Avalon has an excellent 24 valve quad cam all alloy V6 as per the Lexus, excellent transmission, is extremely quiet and Toyota reliability. I don't understand how yours is so bad, if you purchased it second hand it may have missed services or may have been neglected... I have owned four Camry's, currently have a 1999 Camry Vienta VXI with 20,000k's from new, excellent vehicle, can't fault it.
