I would like to make a formal complaint about my 2007 Toyota Corolla. I purchased my car in January 2007. I'm having problems with my vehicle. The is a vibration I feel coming from the steering wheel. My car stopped on the li expressway due to 2 sensors that no longer worked. There is a shaking in my tires & every time I turn my car on there is a loud noise coming from the engine.

Corolla

  • 4,000 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that the computer in the vehicle failed and had to be replaced. The computer is related to the gears and power windows. Whenever the gears are being shifted, the vehicle would shake severely. The contact had to get new brakes and rotors installed four times since the vehicle was purchased. In addition, the vehicle received numerous alignments because the steering wheel would shake when the brakes were applied. Two sensors also caused the engine to stop running. The vehicle has been taken to the dealer for repair numerous times, but the failures still persist. All of the failures began five months after the vehicle was purchased. The failure mileage was 4,000 and current mileage was 60,000.

Corolla 4-cyl

  • 22,000 miles
I have a 2007 Toyota Corolla S, and I believe there is a manufacturer design flaw that leads to excessive debris and rocks that gain access through the front of the vehicle and will ultimately puncture holes in the ac condenser. Since I have owned this vehicle this is the second occurrence of having a punctured hole in my ac condenser. Since they say it is caused by a rock the dealership accepts no fault and the warranty does not cover it. They charge $728 dollars to repair the condenser. I am upset because I feel that Toyota knows that this problem exists and have done very little to resolve the issue. My car only has 22,000 miles on it yet this has happened twice. Very dissatisfied with the design of the vehicle which I feel is the cause. The car should have enough protection in the front end that a rock would not be able to make contact with the ac condenser so easily.

Corolla 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

The 2007 Toyota Corolla (ce) car engine didn't pick up speed in highway until pulling car over to shoulder and restarted the car. This situation has happened three times yesterday when I driving it with my family on highway I-95 in jacksonville Florida. Next day I went Toyota dealer to find out the issue. They hooked the engine with the computer but didn't find the problem. I fear this will happen in the future and may cause life threaten situation.
