Sectioning and Partial Part Replacement: 2017 Toyota Camry

One of the top technical inquires received at Ask I-CAR is “Is there a sectioning or partial replacement procedure available?” To help answer this question, RTS has an OEM Partial Part Replacement Search available. Here you will find information on if these procedures are available on a specific vehicle. Let’s take a closer look at the 2017 Toyota Camry.

The full OEM Partial Part Replacement Search page for the 2017 Toyota Camry can be viewed on the I-CAR website. This will give you a good understanding on general areas for sectioning or partial replacement. I-CAR does not have permission to show exact locations for sectioning or the procedure itself. However, Toyota has a paid subscription website with collision repair information.

Sectioning for the front lower rail is available in a single location. The sectioning joint is an open butt joint. There are multiple locations for partial replacement at factory seams for the front lower rail, and single locations for the upper rail and rear rail.

The outer uniside, inner uniside, and uniside reinforcements may be sectioned in multiple locations using open butt joints. The trunk floor has multiple partial replacement procedures.

For additional Toyota information, check out the Toyota OEM Information page.
