Model records

What changes the warranty calculation

The Toyota Camry records contain 2,754 submitted complaints across 12 matched model years. The median is 167.5 reports per matched year. NHTSA source snapshot: 2026-10-18.

The 2018 record contains 776 complaint reports, the highest raw count among matched years here; other years may tie. Vehicle sales and time on the road differ, so this comparison does not establish a failure rate.

Engine replacement or major internal repair has the highest arithmetic midpoint for parts in the applicable planning estimates, at $8,000 before labor. Confirm the configuration and remaining factory coverage before using this broad estimate to compare a service contract.

39 recall/model-year entries. A campaign can cover several years; the unique campaign count removes that repetition. Missing model-name matches remain unavailable.
