Consumer Description

ON 9/8/2001 I HAD THE 30,000 MILE MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON MY 1999 TOYOTA CAMRY. ON JULY 7,2002, THE WATER PUMP FAILED AND DAMAGED THE TIMING BELT. I HAD TO REPLACE THE WATER PUMP, TIMING(CAMSHAFT BELT) , SEVERAL ADDITIONAL BELTS, IDLER , TENSIONER AND ANTI-FREEZE. LABOR AND PARTS TOTALED $710.44. THIS IS THE 5TH OCCURANCE OF A WATER PUMP FAILING ON A 1999 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH UNDER 45,000 MILES THAT WAS REPORTED ON THIS WEB SITE ALONE. THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY COVERS THE WATER PUMP FOR 60 MONTHS OR 60,000 MILES. I HAVE SENT A CERTIFIED LETTER TO TOYOTA , WHICH THEY HAVE RECEIVED BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE FROM THEM. THE WATER PUMP SHOULD LAST MORE THAT 45,000 MILE AND WITH THE NUMBER OF FAILURES THAT HAVE OCCURED, THERE IS A TREND THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS PART.*AKI
