. The frontal crash test indicates how
well the safety features and restraints
will protect an occupant in a head-on
collision. The side-impact test conveys
the chance of a severe chest injury,
while the rollover resistance rating
estimates the risk of rolling over in a
single vehicle crash.

AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW
|
|
Description:
|
On certain vehicles equipped with a curtain shield air bag (CSA), during manufacturing, the CSA may have been twisted near the inflator due to improper assembly of the curtain shield air bag. If the CSA is twisted, the gas generated by the inflator may be inadequate for proper inflation of the air bag. In the event of the crash, incomplete air bag deployment could result increasing the risk of injury or death. Dealers will inspect the drivers and passengers side curtain shield air bags and replace the air bag assembly if necessary. The recall began on August 6, 2004. Owners should contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

Summary:
|
Seamless, flawless transportation.
By John Rettie, NewCarTestDrive.com
Toyota admits that while few people aspire to own a Camry, lots of people recommend a Camry to their friends. The Camry is what's known as a safe buy. It pleases so many buyers by offending none. It is in many ways an unremarkable car, except for its total lack of identifiable flaws. It Toyota has tried hard to make the latest Camry a little more exciting while at the same time making sure it will still transport its occupants from A to B and back without any drama, nor any worries about reliability, year in and year out.So the Toyota Camry is not be as exciting as the Nissan Altima or Volkswagen Passat. But if you prefer a car that blends in with the crowd, a smooth, comfortable car that delivers hassle-free transportation, a car that offers stellar reliability, then the Camry should prove an excellent choice. That's why the Camry will likely continue as America's most popular new car. |
|
Overview:
|
The Toyota Camry is the best-selling car in America, the crown jewel of cars in the auto industry. Toyota tells us the name "Camry" comes from kan-muri, which in Japanese means "crown." That seems appropriate given that the Camry outsells such popular gems as the Honda Accord and Ford Taurus. The Camry appears to be a perfect transportation appliance, flawlessly performing its duties, never annoying its owner. It rides smoothly, softly over beat-up city streets. The interior is ergonomically excellent, with big climate and audio knobs that are easy to adjust. The seats are comfortable. The Toyota Camry was all-new last year. A longer wheelbase brought significantly increased rear-seat legroom. Its new look is at once taller and more rounded, in keeping with current fashion. For 2003, the Camry offers more standard and optional equipment. All models now come with remote keyless entry, while the XLE model adds fog lights, and a six-disc CD changer for its JBL audio system. Also new is the availability of power adjustable pedals. Given Toyota's reputation for quality, durability and reliability, the 2003 Camry should once again prove to be the ideal car for about 400,000 buyers who don't want to worry about their car.
