Great car but terrible Navigation

The car is stylish and great interior but navigation is terrible. I expected this car to be loaded with all features but navigation doesn't exist nor does it have GPS. All software and electronics is tied to the cell phone. Without a cell phone all this car has is a radio. If you managed to get the navigation working (cell phone has to be plugged into the UPS), if you get a phone call or make a call, navigation quits working as the cell phone can only do one thing at a time. Navigation app is terrible. For a car such as the XLE to just have a radio I paid way too much. I've have had 4 Toyota's now and would not buy this car for this price for just a radio. Would not purchase another.

Great Everyday Car

We purchased this vehicle in September this year which just happened so randomly since we are only at the dealership for my wife's 2013 Corolla maintenance service, we saw the car and fell in love with it. Toyota did a very good job with this car compare to previous Camry models, very comfortable ride and the 4-cylinder actually very powerful for me, great handling on tight corners, cabin noise is minimal but it can be a little loud when speeding on the freeway. Toyota App is very annoying it will ask you to connect to your cellphone every single time you start the car, very poor Bluetooth connection and registration to every single music app is required don't not why it keeps on logging me off, can't use Pandora directly from the app, instead i'll use the app from my phone. Toyota's GPS app full function is required to be connected thru USB port which is very inconvenient for users and feels archaic. Center console material used is a dust magnet and looks very cheap, I have OCD and I have to wipe it off every single time to keep it from dust and smudges. As of this moment the car is in the dealership to check my moon roof that keeps on squeaking that can be very destructive when driving.

Purchased 2018 Camry XSE 4cyl. with all options in Aug. 2017. We had a 2016 XSE 4cyl. The navigation system was simple and good but its upgraded stereo was terrible. Now in the 2018, the upgrade stereo is tremendous but the navigation, WIFi, remote start all are a technology nightmare. To think you pay $35k for a new car and you can’t use theses features. There has not been any resolution from Toyota. October 29, 2019, this is an update to our previous Camry review. Toyota has recalled our Camry and replaced their Scout system with Apple Play. What a fantastic difference! We are very appreciative of Toyota for addressing our issue and we are well pleased with the upgrade.

Transmission Issues

My understanding is that the transmission is new for this years Camry. I would estimate that about 80% of the time I feel like I am driving in the wrong gear. Example: the car feels like it is in second when it should be third, third when it should be in fourth, etc. To help witness this, the tach drops quite a bit after you take your foot off the gas. Shifts rough AND I have never had a car shift gears on me while on the Interstate. I brought the car in to the dealer to have it looked at with around 2500 miles on it and was told nothing is wrong. Not a fan! 4/2/18: Writing a second review: Well, I traded the car in with only 6000+ miles. I felt unsafe in the vehicle and with the transmission. I know I took a bath but my well being is more important. That is all I will say...
