FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE
MY 1995 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS A "PIN-HOLE IN THE GAS TANK" NECESSITATING THE WHOLE TANK BE REPLACED. THE LOCATION OF THE HOLE IS DIRECTLY OVER THE EXHAUST PIPE, MAKING THE CAR UNSAFE DUE TO FIRE DANGER. THE TOYOTA REPAIR DEPT. SEEMS UNCLEAR IF THIS IS CAUSED BY A DEFECT IN THE TANK, A ROAD HAZARD OR INTERNAL CORROSION. IF THIS IS A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT, YOU SHOULD WARN OTHER OWNERS OF THIS CAR, SO THERE ARE NO VEHICLE FIRES. SHOULD YOU WISH TO INSPECT THIS VEHICLE, IT IS ON SITE AT TOYOTA OF WILMINGTON 5640 MARKET ST. WILM NC 28405.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
MY ENGINE MAKES RATTLING NOISE SINCE IT REACHED 30,000 MILES. THE NOISE ONLY COMES FOR FIRST 10 MINUTES WHEN THE CAR IS COLD. I REPORTED THIS PROBLEM TO CAROUSEL TOYOTA, PA DURING WARRANTY PERIOD. SINCE AT THAT TIME THE NOISE DID NOT COME THEY COULD FIX IT AS NOISE ONLY COMES WHEN CAR IS COLD. NOW MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND ENGINE STILL MAKES RATTLING NOISE. *JB

VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD
MY CAR IS A 2003 COROLLA, I BOUGHT IT IN DECEMBER, I HAD TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD IN JANUARY AND NOW IT HAS BEEN A MONTH AND IT IS CRACKED AGAIN AND WILL NEED TO BE FIXED. MY BELIEF IS THAT THE WINDSHIELDS BEING MANUFACTURED FOR THE NEW COROLLA'S CANNOT STAND NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS, AND CRACKS WHEN EVEN A SMALL ROCK HITS IT. THIS WILL BE MY SECOND WINDSHIELD AND I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR 2 MONTHS.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL
PURCHASED 2003 TOYOTA COROLLA IN SEPTEMBER OF 2002. CAR IS EMITTING A VERY NOTICEABLE SULFUR ODOR ESPECIALLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS AFTER DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM IS THE GASOLINE I PURCHASE. I POINTED OUT THAT I HAVE A 2002 TOYOTA CAMRY THAT I PURCHASED IN APRIL OF 2002, THAT I FILL BOTH CARS WITH THE SAME GASOLINE, AND THAT I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANY SUCH PROBLEM WITH THE CAMRY. AGAIN I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE GASOLINE. THE INTERNET ABOUNDS WITH DISCUSSION GROUPS WHERE PEOPLE ALL OVER THE COUNTRY ARE REPORTING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I AM EXPERIENCING.
