I have owned a Camry for 13 years. Loved my last one '94. I hate this one. It shifts hard, has a lot of play in steering, has quite a few blind spots & the interior is cheap plastic which scratches very easy. My '94 had no play in the steering even with 173K miles on it. I have to keep both hands on the wheel with this one. Headrest very uncofortable when seat is upright. When you test drive make sure you pay attention to all this. I didn't because I thought I couldn't go wrong buying a Camry. Will be trying to sell & buy different car soon & I am a person who keeps my cars till they don't run anymore. I am so disappointed. Beware!
Faulty Engine

At about 100k I noticed that the engine was starting to burn oil. I was having to add a quart then 2 quarts in between every oil change. I mentioned to the dealer who handled all my oil changes and was told that they could do some sort of tune up for a couple hundred bucks that should fix it. It didn’t work. At 137k the engine blew, threw a rod. It was at this time I learned that Toyota new about this faulty engine and did not do a recall. Instead they supposedly sent out a notice for a warranty enhancement option to cover the engine. Funny that the dealer never mentioned that to me. I ended up dropping 4k and put in a new 2.4 liter engine. Same sluggish performance and poor acceleration but maybe I can get another 130k out of this one. If the body and interior hold up which is a whole other story.

Transmission Hesitates Dangerously

At 40 mph speed and above if you need a sudden acceleration (such as in a merge situation, at times) the car doesn't respond! It takes several attempts to do so. At some scenarios, this might cause severe injuries or even death! Dealer recalibrated ECU, engine and transmission. Improvement was negligible. Dealer offered to recheck the car again. Test drove identical camry at a different dealer; transmission reacts same way... it hesitates at 40 mph or over! Otherwise, the car is really a great car.
Poor engine/transmission performance

This car is fine in many respects, but suffers from 1-2 sec. hesitation when applying power while the car is already in motion (from very low speeds to moderate speeds of about 35 mph). Also does not downshift (to allow more engine RPMs and therefore more power) on moderate hills when the gas pedal is pressed. The combination of the weak engine (low torque) at low engine speeds and the transmission hesitation is so bad that the car is, in my opinion, a safety hazard.
Shame On Toyota

Toyota has just given American car manufacturers a leg up by putting out this inferior car. This car has a serious/dangerous hesitation problem. Unpredictable acceleration including hesitation when pressing on the gas while moving for up to 3 seconds. When making a left turn, feeding onto a highway or giving it gas while moving the car hesitates for up to 3 seconds before moving! It goes nowhere! When it finally gets moving the acceleration is sluggish. Have almost been reaer ended twice because of this defect. This is a lawsuit waiting to happen. SHAME ON TOYOTA!
