Toyota Corolla Steering Safety Report | July 31, 2013
Reported on July 31, 2013
| SINCE THE DAY WE LEASED 2013 TOYOTA COROLLA JULY 2013, THE CAR IS ALL OVER THE ROAD. CONSTANTLY HAVE TO CORRECT TO KEEP IN LANE, BUZZY, VIBRATION. VERY SCARY IN THE RAIN AND SNOW. CONSTANTLY TCB LOCKS FRONT RIGHT BRAKE AND PULL CAR TOWARDS THE DITCH. HAD TO BACK DOWN A HILL IN THE SNOW SEVERAL TIMES THAT WE HAVE DRIVEN OVER MANY YEARS. WHY WOULD YOU PUT 55 SERIES TIRE ON A SMALL CAR LIKE THIS UNLESS TO COVER UP STEERING ISSUES. WE HAVE 4 BLIZZACK NEW SNOW TIRES AND STILL SCARY TO DRIVE. NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OF OUR OTHER 16 PRIOR TOYOTA'S. COMPLAINED TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD ALL WITHIN SPECS, GET USED TO NEW TECHNOLOGY. SPOKE WITH TOYOTA FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE ON 02/27/2014 AGAIN TOLD THE SAME THING, THEY WOULD LOOK INTO IT, NEVER HEARD OF ANY STEERING ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. NO ANTI SWAY BAR ON ANY COROLLA NOW, BUT A $400 OPTION IF YOU WANT TO HAVE THEM UPGRADE IT! WE ORIGINALLY BOUGHT FOR COLLEGE BOUND TEENAGER, NOW SITS IN DRIVEWAY BECAUSE IT IS NOT SAFE. HELP PLEASE! | |
