2018 Toyota Camry

noise

So, one day months after buying the Camry I pulled out of my lot at the house, and was a hot day - I head some noise which I thought was an issue with Gas&#47;acceleration on a very hot day, so I drove ok to my daughter's home across town into her driveway.

There is a noise in the front end that I've had the dealership look into several times to repair,

Main complaints are issues with wind noise on doors and panoramic roof.

but wears down quickly (expect 20K on tread before road noise becomes unbearable) and absolutely horrible  traction in snow.

2) The motor rattles like it needs a valve adjustment when idling, esp. cold.

Also, this is my first 4-cylinder engine, which I find to be somewhat noisy,

The chrome beauty rings on the speedometer and tach buzz at time, grab an move them  little and the buzz stops, a tiny bit of dense rubber wedged under the ring would likely stop it permanently,..on of these days, I'll do that.

Due to that, the car makes interior noise while stock g that is louder than I hoped.

failure

At 57k miles this garage queen experienced multiple system failures: power steering, turn signals, wipers/washers, and constant failure mode warnings: abs, anti-skid etc.

Currently getting "parking break malfunction" alert EVERY TIME I DRIVE ANYWHERE, which also means brake hold (which I don't really use) and cruise control are down.

Finally, constant warnings: "Secondary breaking&#47;collision&#47;LDA malfunction (check engine)" warning lights go on for a few days and then go off on their own.

I wont go into too much detail about the infotainment system, which is the other glaring failure in this car, at least in its current iteration.

windshield

I just cracked the windshield and it’s &#36;850-&#36;1000 to replace it. Yikes!!

It is hard to do simple things, like reset the average mpg to zero after each fill up of the gas tank, set favorite radio stations, adjust the front passenger seat with mechanical levers, place a toll road tag onto the windshield behind the rear view mirror, see the tire pressure on all 4 wheels constantly on the multifunction information display, etc.

warranty

I had listened to people the past 20 years who talked of dependable Camry, and since March, 2021, I did not spend any money on maintenance and no warranty issues.

The tires wore for no apparent (Hankook) reason and Toyota  nor Hankook  honored  the warranty on them.

Toyota will not cover the issue in the warranty.

comfortable

The seats are comfortable for what I'll call short to medium drives (10 to 90 minutes drives).

The seats are comfortable and the driver seat has many adjustable settings including lumbar support.

Awesome car, comfortable, stylish, good acceleration, good transmission, nothing to complain

The quality has lived-up to its reputation along with the comfort of a&#47;c and efficient interior heating in my upper midwest climate.

The interior is comfortable and looks decent.

The heated leather seats are nice and comfortable.

I’m a senior and don’t drive much anymore and was worried that I sooner comfortable with the Camry

Great visibility, comfortable seats, nice cockpit with a comfy leather wrapped steering wheel.

It has everything I want and It’s extremely comfortable.

feature

And the communication system is great with the extra features including communication through your phone whether it's locked, needs service, location, etc.

My 6 month old grandson and I are alive today because of my Cameys safety features.

There are plenty of safety features which are great;

Very easy to drive and has some safety features that can be turned on if you want to.

This car has more features than I imagined

Driver assist package is awesome &#38; makes for a very safe feeling while operating.

The safety features and bluetooth are great.

Beautiful lines on this car, smooth ride, quiet, great MPG and fantastic safety features.

I especially the interior and the various options on the dash.

with 3 options for the transmission you can choose which "performance" you want and all will still get you over 40 MPG  unless you REALLY abuse this vehicle.

fuel

but for now, Gas and all, the Camry is a nice ride.

But my experience with the 2018 Camry LE blows me away, first and foremost the gas mileage is amazing, the new styling is just gorgeous on the 2018 and newer years, and it’s the fun as all heck to drive.

interior

The interior is "very" spacious, my husband is 6' tall and his head has plenty room.

The interior is nicely trimmed out, JBL sound system is very decent, seating is firm

I hated the way it performed had like a dead spot on acceleration car was very comfortable inside.

Silver white,red leather interior ,black glass roof, a gem of a looker.

I love everything about my new car inside and out!

Great styling, impressive interior, mileage better than EPA estimates which is refreshing.

mileage

It rides very well and get great mileage in town and on the highway.

It regularly gets 39-40 mpg, and I drive it pretty hard.

Will have to see whether the transmission causes further issues with increased mileage.

2019 Toyota RAV4

Real gas Mpg  (Rav -4  ) for city  mileage is 21 mile per a gallon .again again test  more then 300 times 20-21 mile is correct , factory said 28 ml is not even close, so bad gas mileage on town , on Fwy mileage are better 31 mpg per gallon , engin is quite running  smooth , better then BMW X3 - very noise and running very hot (because turbo engin - not Recommend / I  had before) bmw is very hi maintenance car , Toyota RAV4 is good and easy maintenance vehicles.

Within the first 2 days I started to hear rattling coming from the dash.

BUT, less than a week after getting it home we started to hear a groaning sound coming from the front end. Turns out the new "redesign" for 2019 includes a magnetic transfer case (if I have that right.  )

Car makes horrible noise when placed in park, dealer explanation it has to do with automatic parking brake.

The pedestrian warning system noise takes some time to get used to,

It has a bumpy ride, too noisy, slow pickup rate.

There is an occasional squeaking sound up front when turning into uneven ground.

The engine noise is loud, especially when accelerating.

transmission

The main issue I have with this car is the poorly designed transmission.

Driving is super uncomfortable, lousy, shifts looks like has issues, no idea what is doing.

The 8 speed transmission takes a little getting used to, there's a small fault, where you can't plant your foot if the car is still rolling, It lurches forward,

but big cover-up of horrible transmission problems by the manufacture.

but this transmission issue is a bummer if you’re like me and have to sit in stop and go traffic on your commute to/from work each day.

After buying a 2019 Toyota Rav 4 XLE AWD  I regret the purchase the 2.5L engine is not matched to the new 8 speed transmission and when starting to accelerate the engine sounds like it is going to blow up until it gets going

The transmission shifts rough, the engine is noisy.

My new 2019 LE is good and have had for 2 months; great on the high way; 3 hr trip on road was comfortable, the speed is adequate need a little more zoom zoom to it, the engine shift of gears wasn’t that bad as some reviews indicate, didn’t notice the loud engine noise and the shifting was smooth when accelerating, using the cruise control was great and the safety messages appeared when necessary, entune not good unless u have Apple and not Android, my old RAV had more standard features, Toyota could improve that on future base models and the speed, plus my 2002 base had adjustable seat manual to go up or down not on the new one.

I  new and felt the transmission issue, engine noise and road noise ,

Transmission lurches, vibration on startup, remote startup, locks never worked paint coming off near roof guards and on door seam.

speed

After approx 8 months the steering  began making a groaning and sometimes a clunk when turning the steering wheel at slow speed like when parking.

The only issue is its need a very careful n skilled driver when in  cruising mode.and also when monouvering around shard corners at top speed.

At highway speeds passing is a little easier

When driving at accelerated speed (50+) the wind that you hear in the door frames is ridiculous, I took it to my dealer thinking something was wrong with my weather stripping, he confirmed that it's just that loud.

While driving at higher speeds there is always a rattling noise on the drivers side- can’t tell if it’s the mirror or the window

but the eight speed transmission is very touchy and jerky.

After having my Rav 4 for 5 months, approx 2,000-2,500 miles started  hearing GROANING type noise when car is upshifting and downshifting at low speeds going into 3rd gear or so.

Minor problems, ac vent left side quit working,  bluetooth compatibility issues (ask for new smartphone before buying) spring broke on fuel filler door, brake pedal and gas pedal close together possible to press at same time and mpg listed as 40 in town, I get 35.

A C System could be stronger and the vents are too narrow and small.

(AC amplifier bad due to driver seat heater).

There are no side mirror defrosters and the dash defrost that has a vent aimed toward the side window is useless for defrosting the driver side window - it blows toward it

So far the only disappointments are the inside air vents could be bigger for better air flow, and they need to fix their act up re color choices and options which vary dramatically from model to model.

The external temperature number is difficult to read and I cannot find how to brighten that screen.

Wasn’t a huge fan of the large screen partially blocking the windshield and visibility out the front window seemed a bit compromised at the top too because of the roof slope.

brake

but am disappointed with the software glitches (8 malfunctions showed on the dashboard - mainly brake malfunction warnings.

After visiting the dealer today I am informed this is normal as the brake relay has recently been repositioned inside the cab and cannot be rectified, much to the mechanics and my disbelief

I was on very steep paved mountain road in Arizona held at 50 mph on very steep grade  (the noise of electric motors&#47; generators made did get louder, 3 times on very steep areas ) 
  I was also on steep paved Interstate 70 in Colorado held 70 to 80 mph without braking, only had to brake around five different times in 280 miles through Colorado when other vehicles going slow got into fast lane.

Disappointed
Cruise control locks up steering wheel
Bluetooth issues
Brakes squeal loud
Small cargo space

Toyota agrees that there is a safety problem with the vehicle

this car is your typical family runaround give it a break , for the commenter’s out there complaining its to noisey stop thrashing it its not a v8 get a grip ! !

It's drives really smooth, great pick up, amazing gas mileage (typically 40 MPG on average) and super comfortable.

It's a comfortable ride  .. it's a EXL Premium .. therefore it's loaded not as on top of the LIMITED maybe 2 more features on Limited.

It rides well, very comfortable,  decent sound system, good mileage, adaptive cruise and lane assist work well.

It's comfortable and most importantly has held up really well being hit in an accident (and has helped me avoid close calls).

I love the comfort, the ride and I feel very safe.

Plenty of room and very comfortable seats.

Love the versatility and comfort of this vehicle.

The fuel mileage is super, the vehicle has plenty of get up and go on the highway, its comfortable and has many terrific safety features.

The Safety Features ensure that I’m safe and able to get home to my love ones.

We really like the Limited because of all the features.

It has the advanced safety features that I need.

Just learning all the many options on this vehicle.

Toyota, please quit trying to save money and messing with things that were great features!

The fuel economy is good, the audio system is great, and it contains all the features I wanted

The engine is smooth, the safety features are awesome and for long drives the adaptive cruise control really helps battle fatigue.

I have  2011 Toyota Camry  25/33 mpg on gas pretty reliable car  -Recommend .

This is my 5th one, by far the best one: performance wise, above avg,  gas mileage, style is cutting edge, and more spacious interior.

I've had this car since 2019 and am glad it's a hybrid considering gas prices these days.

Run smooth great on gas mileage and I love the style of  the car.

but also I love the style and the gas mileage is amazing.

Good safe car good gas mileage good power for 4 cylinders handles road well

The fuel tank will not accept its full rated capacity.

Was a very good purchase I love it, gas mileage it's awesome, have the room that I need for my kids, best vehicle I ever had

Happy to use regular gas for the savings.

safety

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has given the RAV4 a five-star rating.

It’s pretty, full of safety features, and rides/handles very nicely.

I am amazed everyday at the technology and safety features that this car has!!!

Love all safety features, ride is great, gas mileage is fantastic.

Really enjoying the backup camera and other safety features.

Excellent safety features which provides comfort in navigating busy commutes in a metro area.

ride

Beyond the water-tight roof, the CR-V also has a softer and quieter ride and a smoother CVT.

But yes, it's a nice ride that I have drove than any cars.

Overall: Great ride, nice features, good style, &#38; very good MPG.

It’s a rough stiff ride and the engine is so loud now and the ride is jerky.

It’s a very smooth ride and visibility is great which is important to me as I am only 5’2” tall.

I like the multiple ports, the Apple Car Play system and the excellent mileage and comfortable ride.

You could ride this beast for the whole day with much comfort.5 star definitely.

2019 Toyota Camry

As current owner of a Camry 2013 I was fascinated to upgrade 2019 Camry EXL, it didn't took me that long to realize that something is wrong with the Shifting transmission (it jerks) and the engine is too noisy inside cabin no bueno, when driving in the city.

It has some dashboard rattles, as well as that hollow metallic sound when you shut the doors; also a few too many cheap plastic interior components.

If you've ever driven a Lexus, there is much the same feel as far as the smooth ride feeling and low engine noise.

but just think there’s too much road noise.

My thoughts so far:  There's a little wind noise at highway speeds

It’s been noted by multiple drivers a rattling  noise if your volume is set above 15-17.

Upon pressing the gas pedal, the car lacks response and when it does respond, it's more noise from the engine rather than any measurable torque and speed.

We didn't look at an older version because I read about the 2018 remodel regarding improved ride quality and reduced road noise and that appealed to me.

However, the transmission in it is awful.

The CVT transmission and built in US models have major issues.

If you dont mind the noticeable hiccups in the transmission, then the car would be fine for everyday driving,

I driven a dozen or so rentals with CVT transmissions and I never liked how during an acceleration, it always felt like the engine was always trying to catch-up with the transmission, until finally it did.

Paddle and sports e-tronic shifter features for a CVT Transmission - The downshifts feel glorious and helps a lot on the downhills. 3.

Had a terrible experience with another manufacturer's CVT transmission, so I'm pleased to have an 8 speed with overdrive in this sedan.

my 4cyl xle camry rides like a stick shift car (bouncy, very slow take off, and very noisy.

I do not like the new 8-speed transmission.

The driver side windshield blade doesn't go all the way up if you need to clean your windshield.

.and..  the mpg number was ILLUMINATED onto the windshield--smack dab center!

definitely will recommend to get this car if you’re looking for a comfortable daily car since the base models come with standard safety sense!

but comfortable ride - you won't regret the investment.

Excellent maneuverability, mileage, very comfortable ride. Reliable.

Much improved engine (has pretty decent giddy-up), comfortable front seats, decent sound system, easy enough to use infotainment system, best styling of the most recent generations of the Camry.

It drives nice, is comfortable and gets excellent gas mileage.

it feels very comfortable to drive on any roads or highways

It's the perfect combination of comfort and style!

It is comfortable, beautiful and has all the features I could have hoped for.

Floored 38 mpg
Babied 50
Runs great , quick, roomy and comfortable 
Only downside doesn’t hold value

Best on gas and Toyota is the best make of car ever.

The styling is nice and it gets good gas mileage.

Better gas mileage thanks to the 8 speed automatic.

The gas mileage is great, about 500 miles on one tank of regular unleaded gasoline.

The car has a hybrid engine that gets 59 plus miles per gallon.

I get great gas mileage with this car the car is a good car for the price I enjoyed working with the staff to get me into the car and I would recommend this car to a friend and plan to buy another Toyota in the future

It is a fun car that has all the things I like including reliability and surprisingly good gas mileage.

This car suits my needs in every way.. Great quality, reliability and gas mileage.

I love the sporty style, the great mileage, the leather interior and all of the upgrades especial the rear view monitor and the cross traffic alerts.

The car looks and rides great  Toyota is a very reliable car doesnt break down great gas mileage!

Great car and style leather is good and design is good love the subtle blue color of the exterior which also looks black and features are good

Loaded with options and should sell fast!

This car is reliable and unmatched in safety features.

I paid &#36;29,000 including tax for this car, with tinted window option and it included a &#36;1,000 compulsory alarm system.

This car is reliable, great on gas, has every quality feature needed and recommended with extra features.

great car for the money, would definitely choose if given other vehicle options.

Sporty look, Comfortable Drive, Safety Features, Reliable Engine and Low maintenance.

Love the way it handles, the features are wonderful, design inside and out so pleased with, room inside great and enjoying the performance of the quality of the audio.

The engine, the interiors and exteriors are in excellent conditions.

Gas mileage is awesome and it rides smooth, the galatic aqua mica with black interior is very pretty!

The sleek interior, the exterior is so appealing in this body style.

Very spacious interior with Apple Car Play for your Phone Apps to connect.

2023 Toyota GR86

radio

Good car nice and clean it has a crack in the window the radio works it’s gotten me from pony a to point b

the radio has no sirius availablity   and no disk player i found.

The radio I have a Android you have to download and in Entune 3.0 app to get everything working.

Also hate the fact that the radio system (entune) and the internet of the car are limited to just a couple of months and then you also have to start paying to use it.

I currently own a 2017 Corolla and the first thing I immediately noticed was how MUCH louder the road noise is than my 2017 Corolla.
