2000 Toyota Camry CE from North America
Summary:
Other than the brake problem...I loved it
Faults:
Front brakes were a nightmare, replace pads countless times, cut rotors at least 4 times.
General Comments:
Never had this brake problem with any other car I've ever owned.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Quality is worth it unless you just want to flip and do an injustice to the next person. So with all those brake services, they more than paid if they had gone premium pass. A waste. When I sell cars privately, I always put new 2 year tags on them if close to inspection and change the fluids. In very few instances I feel I get it back anyway. People love seeing receipts at sale time. There’s other Chinese aftermarket parts I stay away from, even the light bulbs. And that includes second generation metal stampings like body panels. My opinion anyway.

Hello Toyota types, this poor person does not understand that these "low-cost" rotors are composite metal and not made with Good Old Pittsburgh steel like were available before these companies got greedy and have rushed to get Chinese made junk! YOU CANNOT TURN DOWN COMPOSITE ROTORS! These rotors are one time use and then are junk metal. Once these rotors heat up they warp. That is why you need to get top of the line rotors and pads! The good stuff is out there, but you need to pay a lot more or just live with warped rotors.
