Toyota Camry problems, by model year and system
2,441 complaints owners filed with NHTSA about the Toyota Camry 2016–2026, and the 5 systems the record is deep on — engine (318), brake (312), electrical (277), airbag (250), fuel system (238). Each system has a page across the years; 10 model-year pages go deeper still. Every figure is a linked federal record; none is a failure rate or a verdict on one car.

Complaints owners filed with NHTSA naming each system, per model year; a bold count links the year’s own page on that system. Counts scale with sales and with time on the road; nothing here is a rate, and NHTSA’s headings are coarse (“Power Train” is the transmission and the driveline).
Common questions
Source: NHTSA complaint databaseWhich Toyota Camry system draws the most complaints?
Engine: 318 complaints across 11 model years, 13% of everything owners filed about the Toyota Camry. A count, not a rate — it says nothing about how many were sold.
Which Toyota Camry year has the most complaints?
2018 (771), 2019 (406), 2020 (283). Older years have had longer to collect them; the year pages show each year's share by system.
