problem #2

Aug 292002

Corolla

  • miles
Within the first three months of ownership, our 2003 Corolla was involved in two separate incidents in which the brakes failed, both of which resulted in collisions. In the first instance (June 12, 2002), while attempting to brake at approximately 45 mph, the brakes locked and the vehicle (over which the driver no longer had control) collided with a vehicle in front. After the collision, the brakes were completely inoperable. This collision resulted in injuries to the driver of the Corolla, and significant damage to the front end of the Corolla. In the second incident (August 29, 2002), the brakes failed while attempting to park, resulting in a collision with a parked car. This collision also resulted in damage to the front end of the Corolla.
