2002 Toyota Camry LE V6 review from North America

Front rotors were badly warped and needed to be resurfaced by dealer at 100 miles.

Sunroof and door pillar rattles began at 3,000 miles. Have reported this to two different dealers and they say it's normal. I had a 98 Camry with 150,000 miles and it had no rattles.

Heat shield making loud noise at 6,000 miles. Fixed by dealer.

Engine has a loud valve ticking sound when cold starting at 7,000 miles. Left at dealer overnight and they said they could not hear it. This problem exists until this day. Keep in mind that I use Mobil 1 every 3,000 miles.

Vibration noise coming from radio when I go over any bump at 8,000 miles. Dealer cannot hear this either.

Winding noise in steering wheel comes and goes at 15,000 miles. Dealer cannot hear the noise.

Brakes vibrate when braking at highway speeds at 18,000 miles. Will have it looked at when the next problem arises.

I can feel something grinding under the driver's floor when turning the wheel when stopped at 20,000 miles. Bringing to the dealer tomorrow...

I am very disappointed with the build quality of this car. I have owned three other Toyotas that were great.

I bought a new 2001 Corolla that my wife had for 3 years, and never had to bring it to the dealer for anything other than oil changes.

Putting all the problem's aside. The car is roomy, rides great, and has great power.
