Known issues on the 2001 Celica. One recall is on federal record for this model year, NHTSA campaign 04V566000, and it is filed against exterior lighting — specifically the headlights. The record states that certain passenger vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108, “Lamps, Reflective Devices, and Associated Equipment.” No consequence is recorded on the file. Owners have filed 55 complaints against the 2001 Celica, and 68 technical service bulletins have been issued for it.
Those two numbers are the useful part of the record when something goes wrong on one of these cars: the complaint file shows what owners actually reported to the federal government, and the bulletin count shows how often Toyota went back to its technicians with a documented finding.
