2004 Toyota Altis review from Malaysia
"Style Over Substance!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Apart from one warranty replacement on the front shocks, there's not much to be changed.
There's some rattling noise on the steering cover and when on uneven roads, it has the tendency to squeaking sound on the dashboard.
General comments?
This car is somehow like style over substance.
The front suspension is so busy and noisy over the slightest uneven roads.
Every time when you go over a small bump or pothole, the front suspension kind of "crashes" badly!!! Why is it so??? There is no finese, sophistication and suppleness at all!!!
I certainly expect Toyota Altis can do far better than this!!! After all, we pay more than RM100K, right?!
Any owners out there can shed some light on this please??? I really appreciate it... THANK YOU!
