2002 Toyota Corolla S review from North America
"Would purchase another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Have replaced brakes twice in 2 years.
Had to replace serpentine belt at 50,000.
Buttons for controls break easily.
Once in a while it does not want to start. After waiting about 10 seconds,it starts. I have taken to the dealer, but they can't find the problem
General comments?
The car is overall excellent. I bought this car in June 2005 44,000 miles on it. At about 65,000 the motor started tapping, and I was told by the dealer that it was normal. I tried premium gas, but it still taps.
