Buying a used 2020 Toyota Camry? Check these 3 recalls first
Only three recalls, but each is substantial: a critical one for engine cracks that can leak coolant, a fuel pump that can fail and stall the engine, and a front passenger airbag that may not inflate. Unverified owner complaints filed with NHTSA land mainly in electrical system, engine and air bags — the last of which overlaps the airbag recall — and include reports of crashes, injuries and two fires.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Look for coolant loss, residue, or any overheating history on the engine
- Confirm the fuel pump recall repair against the VIN
- Ask whether the front passenger airbag recall remedy was applied
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
