Toyota Corolla Reviews

I went to your service location in Riga Latvia. My car had an issue with the gearbox, it is a 2012 Toyota Corolla 1.4 diesel engine. The car had issues with the slipping of the clutch on the third gear. However, after the diagnosis the car started to have problem even with the first gear. The service attendance told me to leave the car at the wess motors for further repair because they considered it risky to drive with it. However I had been driving with that same car all day from 9:00 to 2:00 and I didn't have any problems except for the problems in the third gear. The irony is that they told me that there is a need to change the clutch in the gearbox and that there is also a need to change the computer for the gearbox.

Rented a new 2025 Toyota Corolla, had multiple issues with the driver assist. When trying to avoid an object in roadway/hwy/interstate the car would turn steering wheel back and cause the car to run over the object I was trying to avoid. The car would brake and basically make judgements that it should not be doing. Ran over multiple things. One turtle, a piece of blown out tire, etc.

We bought a Toyota Corolla for our retirement, thinking reliability and low maintenance cost. Surprise!!! Cost to replace headlight = $1753.06. Light bulb replacement is like a down payment on a new car!!!

My 2016 Toyota Corolla LE CVT Tranmission called it quits at 110,000 miles. Still a new car. So disappointed because I love Toyota. They have a long standing for reliability. Long road trips were a struggle because my back would hurt sitting long periods of time.

I bought a 2014 white Corolla. In 2020 I got a recall white and pearlized cars had a bad paint job. I took it to a Toyota collision shop and only repaired the small section one side where paint was falling off. Now in 2024 I had a tortilla size peel on my roof. I wrote headquarters and they refuse to paint the roof. Said the recall warranty is over and it is up to me to pay. Why didn't Toyota just paint the whole car. It is upsetting and embarrassing having the paint start falling off. Beware of a white car. I regret buying that color. I expected it to last me. Toyota does not stand by their word they will take care of you. I am one to tell you it will cost a lot to paint my car and have to drive with a lousy job done by Toyota.

I am having a problem getting the $1,000 rebate I was promised when I purchased my Toyota Corolla. I emailed the corporate offices with my complaint and also sent them a letter of complaint through US mail. Not only have I not received my $1,000 rebate, but my complaint has been ignored with no response. Great car, but lousy service!

I traded my 2021 Corolla LE (60,000 miles) for a 2023 LE. I have about 2000 miles on the 2023 now. Some things I've noticed so far. Road noise is much louder than my 2021. Almost sounds as if a window is not fully closed however they are closed. The 2.0 engine has significantly better acceleration although It does seem to stutter, jerk or hesitate intermittently at lower speeds (Not sure if there is an issue or just the way the CVT operates.) Don't remember this issue on my 2021 LE with smaller engine and I put 60,000 miles on it.

I will never buy another Toyota again. This review isn't necessarily a reflection of the dealership, but with Toyota itself. I purchased the 2022 toyota corolla cross in Dec from the Fairfax location. I was very happy with the car until about 5 months later when one of the blue-tooth functions just stopped working. I can use my carplay for music & for the navigation, I can use the bluetooth for receiving & sending text messages & I can use the bluetooth to make calls, however, all of a sudden when I am on the phone & I use the touch screen or the button on the wheel the phone call will not disconnect. I have to go into my phone & turn off the bluetooth for it to disconnect the call. I paired my son's phone & it also does not work. I went to Chantilly location to see about this issue & they tried for 3 hours to update the software.

I purchased a 2021 Toyota Corolla, who would have thought to test drive it at night. The driver side headlight while on dim there is a blind spot. Before you sign on the dotted line test drive at night!

I used to love Toyotas. Reasonably priced and very reliable. I bought my first Toyota in 1985. Had several since and never had an issue. Always loved the brand. Fast forward to 2022. Do they still make good cars? No, Toyota doesn't make good cars anymore. Worse, they don't stand behind their product. I bought a 2022 Corolla Hatchback in November 2021 from Bell Road Toyota in Phoenix. The car had 3000 miles because it was returned by the previous owner but sold as new. They said, "Don't worry, you are covered by Toyota warranty for 3 years 36,000 miles."
