Poor guy! Sorry for your tough luck.
Toyota products are not known to have that kind of problem. What year is your Camery?

Since 1993 we had Sienna, Corlla, 4 runner and Camry Hybrid, my only repair is about $280 on the air condition of my Sienna.
My Camry Hybrid in his 5th year and still trouble free.

I drove it for over 3 years and had virtually no problems – best car I ever owned. My son is now driving it without issue. Consumer Reports may not be the best way to guage car reliability, but owner surveys are fairly accurate. I’ve owned Che ys and Dodges and their reliability hasn’t compared. Consumer reports does indicate that all brands reliability has improved. I currently own an 08 Mariner hybrid. We’ll see how it holds up.

Just letting everyone know that these are not accurate findings. Consumer Reports has been found biased in the past, and people should not take these “opinions” seriously. Look at the link above, it shows how consumer reports get their findings, and that this is in fact not proof the most reliable car it Toyota. I started researching this after I owned a Toyota that had MANY MANY problems in a span of 2 years.

Problems with my Toyota Camry in 2 years:

High Pressure hose leak. Took 8 hourse to change
Alternator
Auto Locks
Belt noise, fixed with a washer.
Spark plug wire, hole burned in it from engine heat.
Transmission issues, was able to fix without replacing.
Overheating issues:Relay, replaced worked for 6 months, again more overheating, replaced Radiator Fan, finally had to Replace Radiator.
Radio Malfunctioning
Shortly after it started I sold the car.
