I've read several posts here, and a few items in the automotive press about quality issues with recent Camry's. Esp. interior misalignments, squeaks/rattles, etc. Has Toyota acknowledged this, and have they indicated that fixes are on the way? I'm considering an '09 XLE, but want to be sure the car I get will be up to Camry's historic quality standards.

I conduct reliability research, and have dozens of owners of the 2007 Camry participating.

The initial repair rate was very high only for the V6, owing to a transmission shift quality issue, and it has been coming down. It's now close to average.

The repair rate for the other powertrains has been low.

Squeaks and rattles and other such minor stuff might still be an issue, but unless people report repairing these I wouldn't know.

In general, Toyota addresses common issues, but squeaks and rattles might be an exception.
