STEERING
WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE SWAYS AND DRIFTS BY ITSELF TO THE RIGHT LANE OR SOMTIMES THE LEFT LANE WITHOUT MUCH DRIVER EFFORT. I FEEL THAT THE CAR IS BEING PUSHED OFF THE ROAD AS IM DRIVING.I HAVE NOTIFIED MY DEALER MILLENNIUM. TOYOTA IN HEMPSTEAD NY BUT THEY CANT SEEM TO FIND THE PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THOUGH ON YOUR WEBSITE THAT THERE WERE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2013 TOYOTA COROLLA AND THIS PARTICULAR. PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM. TOYOTA 2 TIMES SAID THEY CANT FIND THE PROBLEM AND SAID THEY JUST ADJUSTED TIRE INFLATION TO 32 PSI.WHEN I BROUGHT VECHICLE THE FIRST DAY, IT HAD 50 PSI ON EACH TIRE AND THE DEALER ASKED ME IF THE TPMS LIGHT CAME ON AND I SAID NO. IM SURPRISED. THAT THE DEALER HAS NO INFO ON THIS STEERING PROBLEM. IM AFRAID FOR MY LIFE AND MY FAMILY THAT WE MAY DIE IN THIS CAR. THE DEALER IS COMPLETELY IGNORING THE PROBLEM. I EVEN SAW A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ONLINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. HOW COME TOYOTA IS NOT ADVISING THERE CUSTOMERS OF THIS PROBLEM. WE THE CUSTOMER BUYS TOYOTS FOR RELIABILITY AND SAFETY AND I DONT KNOW IF I WILL EVER BE SAFE IN A TOYOTA COROLLA AGAIN.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, STRUCTURE
FOR THREE WEEKS WE HAVE BEEN WONDERING WHY OUR NEW TOYOTA COROLLA IS STEAMING HOT INSIDE. SINCE WE USE IT SOLELY TO COMMUTE TO SCHOOL WHICH IS JUST 2 MILES AWAY, WE SOLVE THE PROBLEM BY WINDING DOWN THE WINDOWS. THE KIDS WERE COMPLAINING THAT THIS CAR IS EXCEPTIONALLY HOT AND WE THOUGHT IT ABSORBS AND RETAINS THE SUMMER HEAT DUE TO ITS DARKER COLOR. LAST WEEKEND, WE DECIDED TO DRIVE AN HOUR AWAY FROM HOME. BY THE TIME WE HEADED FOR HOME, IT WAS AFTERNOON AND THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED UNDER THE SUN FOR ABOUT FIVE HOURS. WE TURNED ON THE AC IN THE HOPE TO COOL IT DOWN. FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER, I FELT DIZZY AND DROWSY. I STRUGGLED TO KEEP MYSELF AWAKE. I WAS TERRIFIED TO FIND THAT THE AC IS NOT JUST FAILING TO COOL THE CAR DOWN, IT WAS EMITTING STEAMING HOT AIR. WE QUICKLY WIND DOWN THE WINDOWS TO LET THE SUMMER AIR IN, WHICH FELT MUCH COOLER IN COMPARISON. THE KIDS WERE VERY QUIET AND SCARED. AS SOON AS WE REACHED HOME, MY SON COMPLAINED THAT HIS EYES FELT VERY HOT. HIS WHOLE BODY FELT VERY HOT. HE FELT VERY TIRED AND SLEEPY. FIRST THING MONDAY MORNING, I SENT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY FOUND A LEAK AND HAD THE PARTS ORDERED. I HAVE TO DRIVE THE CAR HOME UNFIXED UNTIL THE PARTS ARRIVE. I AM NOW STILL DRIVING A NEW DEFECTIVE CAR WITHOUT AC. THREE DAYS LATER, MY SON IS STILL RUNNING A LOW GRADE FEVER AND I DARE NOT LET HIM SIT IN THE CAR WITH SUCH POOR VENTILATION UNDER THE HOT SUMMER SUN. I COME TO REALIZE THAT THE AC WAS BROKEN WHEN THE CAR WAS SOLD TO ME BRAND NEW. *TR

STEERING
NEW 2013 COROLLA L. 1ST TIME DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. HAD TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT STEERING, FELT LIKE WIND BUFFETING THE CAR. ANY LIGHT TOUCH ON STEERING WHEEL CAUSED CAR TO SHIFT DIRECTION. AT ONE POINT, THE CAR VEERED INTO ANOTHER LANE WITH JUST A VERY LIGHT TOUCH ON THE STEERING WHEEL. NOW I LEARN ABOUT A 2010 RECALL, & READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT FATIGUE FROM CONSTANTLY HANDLING THE STEERING WHEEL, UNEXPECTED DIRECTION CHANGES, AND EVEN ACCIDENTS. UNIMPRESSIVE! AND DANGEROUS! *TT

STEERING, ENGINE
*STEERING* I WENT TO VISIT MY DAD & RUN SOME ERRANDS IN LA COUNTY ON JULY 6TH 2013. I RESIDE IN ORANGE COUNTY SO I HAD TO GET ON THE FREEWAY. THE SPEED LIMIT ON CALIFORNIA FREEWAYS IS 65 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN I GOT UP TO 65 MILES PER HOUR MY CAR STARTED VEERING OFF TO THE LEFT & I HAD KEEP A FIRM GRIP ON THE STEERING WHEEL WITH BOTH HANDS TO KEEP THE CAR IN MY LANE. THE SPEED LIMIT IN IRVINE ON MOST STREETS IS 50 MILES PER HOUR. I DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THE VEERING PROBLEM AT 50 MILES PER HOUR OR LESS LIKE I DID AT 65 MILES PER HOUR. VERY SCARY. *ENGINE PROBLEMS 2 TIMES SO FAR* ON 8/14/13 I TRIED TO START MY CAR TO RUN AN ERRAND & IT WOULDN'T START. I TURNED THE KEY TOWARDS ME & TRIED TO START IT AGAIN THEN IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS A ONE TIME INCIDENT SO I LET IT GO. EARLIER TODAY 8/17/13 THE SAME THING HAPPENED. I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, TURNED THE KEY & NOTHING HAPPENED, IT DIDN'T START UP. ONCE AGAIN I TURNED THE KEY TOWARDS ME THEN TURNED IT IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION & IT STARTED RIGHT UP. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR ON 6/9/13 & AFTER THE TEST DRIVE IT HAD 5 MILES ON IT WHEN I DROVE OFF OF THE DEALER'S LOT "POWER TOYOTA CERRITOS" AKA AUTONATION. I CURRENTLY HAVE 649 MILES ON MY CAR. I PLAN ON CONTACTING THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT ON 8/19/13 TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE MY VEHICLE INSPECTED. IF THIS PROBLEM PERSISTS I'M GOING TO CONTACT A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY. I HAVE A DISABLED CHILD THAT I USE THIS VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT TO & FROM DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENTS. I BOUGHT A TOYOTA BECAUSE OF THE REPUTATION OF DEPENDABILITY THAT THE NAME CARRIES. NOW I'M NOT SO SURE. *TR

STEERING
I BOUGHT MY 2013 COROLLA NEW SEVERAL HUNDRED MILES FROM HOME. DRIVING IT HOME, IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE NOT TO NOTICE THAT IT WAS VERY TWITCHY OR DARTY WHEN TRYING TO KEEP IT GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. KEEPING THE CAR GOING STRAIGHT WAS A CONSTANT CHORE- MY PREVIOUS 2005 COROLLA WAS EXCELLENT IN THAT REGARD- NO PROBLEMS, JUST LIKE EVERY CAR OR TRUCK I'VE DRIVEN IN MY LIFE, GOING BACK TO LATE 1960'S DESIGNS TO MY 2005 COROLLA. THAT WEEK, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER TO FIX WHAT I FIGURED WAS A MIS-ADJUSTED TOE ON THE FRONT. THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS WITHIN SPEC AND THAT IT DROVE JUST LIKE THE OTHER COROLLAS ON THE LOT. THROUGH SOME INTERNET SEARCHING, I LEARNED THAT MY PREVIOUS 2005 COROLLA HAD HYDRAULIC POWER ASSIST STEERING AND THAT THIS NEW ONE HAD ELECTRIC POWER STEERING. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA WOULD RELEASE THIS DESIGN INTO PRODUCTION- MY TOYOTA LOYALTY HAS BEEN SHATTERED. WORSE, THERE IS A TSB TO FIX IT, BUT ONLY IF ONE OWNS A 2009 OR 2010. YET MY 2013 IS STILL PLAGUED WITH THIS ISSUE AS TOYOTA DIDN'T CHANGE ANYTHING IN PRODUCTION AS FAR AS I CAN TELL BY HOW MY 2013 DRIVES AND THE INFORMATION I HAVE COME ACROSS ON THE INTERNET. *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA COROLLA 2013 CAR ON NOVEMBER 14, 2012 FROM THE TOYOTA OF MANHATTAN DEALERSHIP LOCATED ON 645 11TH AVE NEW YORK NY 10036. IN A MONTH, I DISCOVERED THAT THE TOP SEGMENT OF THE REAR DEFOGGER IS NOT DEFOGGING THE REAR WINDOW. IT IS ABSOLUTELY IMPOSSIBLE TO USE A REAR VIEW MIRROR BECAUSE OF THAT WHEN THE REAR WINDOW IS FOGGED. IT IS BECAUSE THE REAR HEAD RESTS OBSTRUCT THE BOTTOM AND THE MIDDLE PARTS OF THE REAR WINDOW, AND THE ONLY PART OF THE REAR WINDOW WITHOUT THE OBSTRUCTION IS A TOP PART, WHICH IS NOT BEING CLEARED BY THE THREADS OF THE DEFOGGER. IT IS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR THAT HAS THIS FLAW. *TR

STEERING
THE VEHICLE WANDERS ON THE ROAD VERY DANGEROUSLY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40 MPH. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CAR THAT REQUIRES THE DRIVER TO PAY MORE ATTENTION TO KEEPING THE CAR CENTERED IN THE LANE LEAVING LESS TIME FOR HIM TO BE MONITORING THE TRAFFIC AROUND HIM. I HAVE ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS FOUND MYSELF CROSSING OVER INTO THE OTHER LANE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. LUCKY FOR ME THERE HAS BEEN NO OTHER CAR DIRECTLY BESIDE ME WHEN THIS HAS OCCURRED; OTHERWISE, I SUSPECT I WOULD HAVE HIT THE OTHER CAR. I SEE THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN CONTINUOUSLY REPORTED SINCE 2009 AND WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR LAST MONTH I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE COMPLAINTS BY DEALER. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CAR THAT NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION TO A THOROUGH REVIEW BY THE NHTSA. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
I JUST BOUGHT A 2013 TOYOTA COROLLA ON FRIDAY 4/12/13 AND NOTICED WHILE DRIVING OFF THE LOT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS COCKED TO THE LEFT A LITTLE AND IF STRAIGHTENED THE CAR WOULD VEER TO THE RIGHT. I FIGURED I WOULD TAKE IT IN NEXT WEEK TO GET FIXED BUT WASN'T TOO WORRIED ABOUT IT. THE NEXT NIGHT I WAS DRIVING FOR THE FIRST TIME ON THE FREEWAY AROUND 65-70 MPH AND FELT LIKE THE CAR WAS ALL OVER THE ROAD AND IT WAS VERY HARD TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT IN THE LANE. IT FELT LIKE IT WAS REALLY WINDY AND THE CAR WAS BEING PUSHED LEFT AND RIGHT EVEN IF I KEPT THE WHEEL STRAIGHT. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE SALES MANAGER AND TOLD HIM I WAS TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK THE NEXT DAY. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN AND THE SALES MANAGER TEST DROVE THE CAR WITH ME IN IT AND HE FELT THE SAME THING I FELT. THE CAR STAYED OVERNIGHT UNTIL SERVICE DEPT WAS OPEN FOR MONDAY. I CAME TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY AND SAW THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS FIXED, BUT ONCE ON THE FREEWAY IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING SO I TOOK IT BACK IMMEDIATELY AND HAD THE SERVICE MANAGER TEST DRIVE THE VEHICLE, HE TOO FELT THE PROBLEM AND SAID TO BRING IT BACK WEDNESDAY BECAUSE A REP FROM TOYOTA WAS COMING AND HE'LL HAVE HIM TAKE A LOOK AT IT. THE REP CAME OUT AND SAID THE VEHICLE WAS PERFORMING AS STANDARD PER WIND AND ROAD CONDITIONS AND SINCE IT WAS DESIGNED TO BE A LIGHTWEIGHT VEHICLE THAT IT WOULD FEEL LIKE THAT. I TOLD THEM I DIDN'T FEEL SAFE IN THE VEHICLE AND I NO LONGER WANTED IT, THE GM SAID TO LEAVE IT ANOTHER DAY UNTIL THEY CAN RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WHEN I CAME IN THE NEXT AFTERNOON I DID A TEST DRIVE WITH THE GM AND THE CAR WAS PRETTY MUCH FIXED IT STILL HAD THE PROBLEM BUT WAS BARELY NOTICEABLE. THEY STATED ALL THEY DID WAS TAKE THE AIR IN THE TIRES DOWN FROM 35 PSI TO 32 PSI. THEY CLAIMED THAT IS ALL THEY DID! SO I TOLD THEM I AM SATISFIED FOR NOW BUT IF THE ISSUE RECURS I WILL BE TAKING IT BACK! *TR

STEERING
WHEN DRIVING AT 55+ MPH THE STEERING WANDERS. IT WILL PULL TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT BY ITSELF. VERY HARD TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT WITHIN MY LANE. I JUST BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW, SO I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER TO SEE IF THEY COULD FIX IT. THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT. I TOLD MY SALESMAN AND WE DECIDED TO DRIVE SOME OTHER VEHICLES TO SEE IF IT WAS JUST THE COROLLA OR NOT. I DROVE A CAMRY AND AVALON WITH NO PROBLEMS AT ALL, THE SALESMAN DROVE MY COROLLA AND WAS SHOCKED IMMEDIATELY AT HOW MUCH IT WANDERED AND HOW HARD IT WAS TO KEEP IN HIS LANE. SAME DAY, SAME ROAD CONDITIONS, SAME WIND. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINS ABOUT THIS NEW EPS (ELECTRIC-ASSIST POWER STEERING SYSTEM) ON THE COROLLAS SINCE 2009 TO CURRENT. STILL NO RESOLUTIONS THAT I HAVE FOUND. I TOLD THE MANAGER THAT IT WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE BUT HE WOULD NOT GIVE ME AN EVEN TRADE ON ANY VEHICLE, NOT EVEN A USED. IT IS ONLY 1 MONTH OLD AND HE WANTED TO DOCK ME $4000 DOLLARS OFF WHAT I PAID FOR IT! NEEDLESS TO SAY, THE TOYOTA DEALER DID NOT MAKE IT RIGHT. I GUESS I WILL TRY AND CHECK ON OUR STATE LEMON LAWS TO SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE. *TR

STEERING
I NOTICED A RATTLE SOUND AROUND STEERING WHEEL SO I TOOK COROLLA TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT. TECHNICIAN WAS ABLE TO FIND THE RATTLE. DEALERSHIP SERVICE CENTER CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY WE'RE ADVISED TO REPLACE MY ENTIRE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN. THE RATTLE SOUND IS GONE BUT SINCE THEY REPLACED THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN THERE SEEMS TO BE OVER ROTATION OF THE STEERING WHEEL (MEANING I HAVE TO TURN THE WHEEL MORE THAN USUAL TO MAKE A RIGHT OR LEFT HAND TURN), STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT RETURN TO THE CENTER LIKE NORMAL AND MAKES A RUBBING SOUND WHEN I TURN LEFT OR RIGHT WHILE PARKED OR DRIVING AT VERY LOW SPEEDS 5-10 MPH. TECHNICIAN AND SERVICE ADVISOR STATED THEY FELT THE CAR DROVE FINE AND THAT THEY DID EVERYTHING THEY COULD TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT ONE MORE TIME TO SEE IF THEY CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT THE RUBBING NOISE IS AND WHY MY VEHICLE STEERING IS NOT AS IT SHOULD BE. *TR
