Brake wear on other Camry years
Report counts are for each model year on its own, so a newer car has had less time to collect them. Model years with too few reports of it for a sheet: 2016, 2017, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024.
What this problem usually is
Brake reports cover a wide spread of symptoms. Grinding or squealing is common, and so is a pulsing pedal or a shake through the car when stopping. Others describe pads and rotors worn out long before they expected, a brake warning light, or a pedal that goes soft or sinks toward the floor. The most serious ones say the car didn't stop in time.
What got replaced
Owners who name the part that was replaced mention the pads and rotors (4 reports), the ABS module (4 reports) and the booster (3 reports).
Recalls and investigations
No recall on the brakes covers the 2014 model year as of Oct 2, 2026.
What owners paid

When it happens
The middle half of failures fell between 23,000 and 74,429 miles, from the 20 reports that gave a mileage.

Should you keep driving it?
This page can't tell you that. 11 of 33 reports involved a crash and 9 people were hurt. Owners who file are the ones who had a bad experience, and nobody checks their reports. If the problem affects steering, braking, power or a fire risk, treat it as a safety fault and have it inspected before a long or high-speed drive.
