My Camry? Built in the USA. The parts content is probably as great as a GM car. I have a friend who worked at a supplier (tier 2) of brake materials. GM dictated that their big customer use friction material...from China, and passed it for quality even though half of it wouldn’t bond to the plates or would crumble. “Foreign” plants here in the US treat their suppliers with respect, and pay their bills on time. Not so much for GM Ford and Chrysler.

Sad.

I’ve always done my own maintenance on my vehicles, tune-ups, breaks, exhaust, etc.

Maybe that’s why I’ve had better luck.
