2003 Toyota Camry problems with left pull. The vehicle pulled to the left while driving. The technician test drove the vehicle and indicated it was either an alignment problem or tires. The technician then realigned the vehicle but the alignment was outside of the manufactures specification. The consumer indicated that the pull is diminished, if not generally gone, but is concern about the parameters of the alignment. The consumer believes if the vehicle had to be aligned out of specification that the problem may be with the tires.

Ref: My earlier ODI #10047147 and ODI #10080438. 2003 Camry (currently 7700 miles). Gradual right drift since purchase January 2003. A total of 10 new Bridgestone 15" potenza RE92 tires (including the 4 original tires that came on the new vehicle) were mounted on the car over a 4 month period. Right drift was not corrected. The service manager of the Toyota dealer where car was originally purchased refused to acknowledge and/or correct problem. The service manager of second Toyota dealer promptly acknowledged the problem, diagnosed tires as the cause, and corrected it. Once tires were mounted on the vehicle that were other than Bridgestone, the right drift was corrected. The vehicle now is a safe and enjoyable vehicle to drive.

My 2003 Camry had been great since the date of purchase. Only had 2 problems with the car, one minor the other was major. I have 25000 miles on the car, and both the front tires were bare. I was able to see all the treads from the tires. The major problem I got was my Camry caught on fire and melted the entire engine. I'd pulled up to the parking lot at work, and 20 minutes later, I was notified that my engine was on fire. Spoke with fire department and they said it looks like faulty/malfunction wire/cables. Not sure if Toyota knows of this, but now I'm left w/O a car until M insurance figures everything out. Toyota should be notify in case there was a defect in the 2003 models.
