1991 Toyota Camry DX review from North America
"Phenomenal long-mileage reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The braking system seems to be the only mechanical thing to have ever needed attention (e.g., more easily worn pads/rotors, brake noise).
The factory issued in-dash radio/cassette player died after about a year. The dealer replaced it, but the replacement died as well about six months later.
General comments?
As far as mechanics go, this car has been truly stellar. I've never had a car that's been as reliable as this '91 Camry. I've changed the oil every three thousand miles and have never had to have anything done on the engine in the way of a service in the nine years I've owned it. Granted, it's not the sexiest car around and it sure isn't a performance vehicle, but this little sedan just won't quit.
