| I have the same problem with my 1999 Camry. All along the bottom inside on the speedometer glass, there is spots that formed. It seems to be condensation from the inside caused by a loose seal or from the air conditioning ducts. Going to take my car in to have it looked at while it is still under warranty. | |
| I've been hearing a rubbing noise too from the front end when I turn at a slow rate of speed. Maybe I have the same problem-noisy strut mounts. Is this something I should be concerned about? My car is well out of warranty (115K) and otherwise drives great. The only annoyance is that it is very low to the ground. I almost forgot, the factory 3CD player is also pretty obnoxious...I'm hoping it'll break so I can justify replacing it. Great car overall, though. | |

I recently purchased a 98 Camry LE v4 with only 9200 miles on it from a dealership. The car seems to be in perfect condition inside and out, but I have found that when I have passengers in the back seat the car tends to bottom out when I'm coming out of or going into an underground parking garage. And now my wife tells me that the car also bottoms out exiting her driveway at work when only she is driving it! Is this a common problem with Camrys? What does it take to fix it? (I know this is a '99 discussion group, but any help would be appreciated) |

| I would take the car back to the dealer and have him check the rear shocks. It should be covered under the warranty. No, my 1999 Camry LE does not bottom out with people in the back seat. | |
| I think he's referring to the underside of the car scraping the pavement. It's a problem with the Camry because of its low ground clearance. | |
| in my 97 I counld't go over speed bumps without hitting them. Worse with people in the back seat. | |
| I have a 1999 Toyota Camry LE w/20,000 mi. I brought it to the dealer for normal service and to check for the cause of front vibration at 60 mph. The service tech replaced a shock absorber, steering knuckle, and bearing to correct the problem. The service tech claimed I must have hit something to cause the damage and therefore the repair would not be covered under warranty. Are you aware of any problems with the vehicle that may have caused this damage. | |
| I know that the Camry had problems with a steering wheel vibration that occurred due to a bad shipment of General Tires. Anything faster than 60 mph and the steering wheel would shake. The General Tires couldn't be balanced properly. Unless there is visible damage on the parts replaces, the parts should be covered under warranty. I would ask them to show you the parts they claimed were damaged by your neglect. If no damage is visible, I would then call the Toyota Regional Office and tell them of your problem which should have been covered under warranty. Hope you get the satisfaction you deserve. | |
| Had my Camry in today for an inspection and oil change. Showed service advisor the condensation markings on the lower portion of the speedometer glass. Well, they have a quick fix for the problem. They remove the glass and clean it on the inside. The service advisor has noted this on numerous Camry models and this is what they have been doing at the dealership. I guess when it forms again, they will clean it free of charge each time. Three cheers for Toyota! | |

Hi! I have 1999 Camry with 33000K, I bought it new and from my first year (after six months of purchase or so) I am having problem with my ABS. It gets activated just like that, when ever I am breaking on a wet surface or rough surface or even on some rough spot. First it got activated when I was stoping at red light, and I hit my front car, I got a ticket for that, I told the cop also, but still he gave me ticket. from that day I am having this problem, I complained to my dealer everytime I went there for servicing but they found everything quite normal. Am I the only one facing this problem, or anybody else out there. What did you do about it? any kind of help/info is greatly appreciated. thanks - KB |
