    Anti-lock brake system is entirely too sensitive. The brake system kicks in at speeds below twenty, on dry uneven pavement, iron grates and any sought of bump in the road. The has almost resulted in numerous accidents. Was told by a salesmen this is a problem on 2002 camry's. Have had brakes checked on numerous occasion by toyota service technicians but no problem is ever found. *nm

    Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip · Automatic Transmission

    At a constant cruising speed, the automatic transmission abruptly jerks (presumably shifts) when accelerator pedal is released slightly. A clunking noise can also be heard at this time. The abs actuator also had to be replaced earlier as it was producing a clunking noise after the engine was started and the steering wheel was turned sharply at low speeds.
