Buying a used 2023 Toyota Camry? Check these 2 recalls first
Two recalls, and one is unusual: a critical action for lug nuts that may loosen and allow a wheel to detach carries a stop-driving advisory, so it needs to be confirmed as completed before the car is driven. The other covers poorly welded second-row headrest brackets. Complaint volume filed with NHTSA is low for this year and spread thinly across electrical, fuel/propulsion and power train; those reports are unverified and include crashes, fires and injuries.
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.
- Get written confirmation the lug nut recall was completed before any test drive
- Inspect the wheels and lug nuts for looseness or signs of prior repair
- Tug the second-row headrests to check for play in the brackets
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
