1999 Toyota Camry LE from North America - Comments

Although the car is OK, the problem rate is above my expectation.

Solenoid failure (under warranty)

Cold start sensor failure (under warranty)

back strut failure (cost me $800+ for material and labor)

Now, check-engine light on, O2 sensor problem ($440 to check and fix)

Actually, you're getting off LIGHT compared too many Camry owners. These cars are VERY trouble-prone, especially the ones made after 2000. I'd sell it while there is enough left to sell and buy a reliable domestic. Our imports have been total garbage, while none of our domestics has had a problem.

Yes, make sure you get a quality domestic like the Mexican-built Ford Fusion.

You'll be helping the Mexican economy (as opposed to the Camry which is built here using US parts).

Camry is a domestic by definition.

Ford Fusion, Crown Victoria, Ford Focus, PT Cruiser and others are the imports.
