"That is complete BS. Everyone gets whiplash in their cars no matter what or from whatever car they drive in an accident even if the car comes with side curtains."

Now, above is a complete BS. Side curtains do not prevent whiplash, it protects the thorax or upper body portion of the occupants in the car. Head restraints or headrests with proper use of seatbelts are the ones that prevent whiplash. Good head restraint design can reduce or prevent whiplash and maybe the Camry's headrest is not designed to effectively protect the passengers from whiplash.

In all fairness though, I don't think Toyota's realiability has gone down the drain, I think it has more to do with the fact that the rest of the competition has caught up with them in terms of realibility including the Korean automakers.
