2002 Toyota Camry LE review from North America
"A smooth, quiet, ultra-reliable, but rather boring car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car - we have changed the oil only. On a recent safety inspection there was no indication of any imminent problems.
General comments?
Car is much smoother, faster, quieter with better brakes than our 1994 model. However, seats are too hard and I have difficulty driving for more than 2 hours without a break - this was also my major complaint with the 1994.
As well, although car is tight and quiet in warm weather it is quite prone to various "plastic" squeaks in cold weather. This is a problem that our 1994 did not have.
Great trunk and interior room although car is only slightly larger than 1994. Car is higher, and you sit higher than 1994.
