🔍 Known Issues — 2002-2006 Toyota Camry
Excessive Oil Consumption HIGH
The 2AZ-FE engine is notorious for burning oil excessively, often requiring frequent top-offs between oil changes. This typically begins around 80,000-120,000 miles and can consume 1-2 quarts per 1,000 miles. Toyota issued a warranty extension for this issue, but repair costs can reach $3,000-5,000 for engine rebuild or replacement.
Transmission Slipping and Harsh Shifting MODERATE
The U241E automatic transmission may develop slipping, harsh shifting, or delayed engagement, particularly between 100,000-150,000 miles. This often starts with flare-ups during 2-3 shift and can progress to complete transmission failure. Rebuild costs typically range from $2,500-3,500.
Dashboard Cracking MODERATE
The dashboard plastic is prone to cracking, especially in hot climates, typically occurring after 5-8 years regardless of mileage. Cracks usually appear along the defroster vents and spread across the dashboard surface. Replacement dashboards cost $800-1,200 installed.
Power Steering Rack Leaks MODERATE
The power steering rack commonly develops leaks from the inner tie rod seals around 120,000-180,000 miles. This causes power steering fluid loss and can lead to complete steering assist failure. Rack replacement typically costs $1,200-1,800 including alignment.
Door Handle Paint Peeling LOW
Exterior door handles frequently experience paint peeling and chrome flaking, particularly on darker colored vehicles. This cosmetic issue typically appears after 3-5 years and affects resale value. Replacement handles cost $150-250 per door including paint matching and installation.
