| Tires had very uneven and premature wear, caused by improper rear end alignment. cooling system overheated, and did not have a system that shuts the engine down in order to protect engine components. thus, the engine on my vehicle overheated and damaged the head gasket, water pump, and timing belt. each had to be replaced. the power window regulator has failed on all but one window, ritht rear, of my car. i have spoken to other owners of 1993-94 toyota camrys who have experienced the same problem. i believe that the design of this regulator is severly flawed.( dot number: ) | |||
