Replying to: nanapat2 (May 08, 2008 4:07 am) Can you expand on the issues you have experienced with your Corolla? I have gone back and looked at the postings, but I only found 1 specific about the tilt steering wheel. Thanks! |

">I'm really questioning my impulse buy on the 09 Corolla S. I was all set to buy a Civic, but the new 09 Corolla model looked really sharp... and everyone has Civics. I really liked how the Corolla test-drove compared to the Civic and it was a lot more spacious in the interior. I also liked the availability of options. I purchased the Corolla in March. At 400 miles my car sporadically was having trouble turning over when I tried to start it. The dealer couldn't duplicate the problem so I drove it for a few more weeks. The problem persisted (2000miles) so I went back to the dealer. Turns out I need all of my fuel injectors replaced! It's in the shop right now (after waiting 2 weeks because the parts were on backorder). I also noticed trouble with the steering on the highway. I am constantly battling with the car to keep it between the lines. It's very tiresome. I also noticed that my sunroof is creaking when I turn the corner or hit a small bump in the road (3000 miles). Right now I'm just concerned with the fuel injectors, but I'm sure my car will be back in the shop soon to deal with the sunroof. I have an 09 Corolla loaner at the moment and entire front roof panel (in front of the sunroof) has a persistent squeak! I pushed up on the panel and it was really loose. Hopefully that doesn't happen in my car!! I'm thinking I should have went with the trustworthy Civic. |

Replying to: nanapat2 (May 12, 2008 10:18 am) I asked before, but maybe you missed my question... Can you briefly detail the problems you have had with your Corolla? My daughter is considering an 09 model, and I would like to know what issues you have had... Thanks...Busiris

Replying to: busiris (May 12, 2008 5:50 pm) #2. The 03-08 model years are extremely reliable, (check consumer reports, etc.) They are tops. All makes can have a lemon, but rest assured that his '07 with problems is very very rare. Check other websites, you'll find this to be the case. #3. I have not seen any major problems with the new '09s. The complaints are steering feel (for some), and some rattles (Honda Civic, Accord, Toyota Camry have similar complaints.) Nothing that will prevent you from safely getting from point A to point B. You may want to check ToyotaNation forums also. |
