2009 Toyota Corolla CE review from North America
"Unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Transmission started lagging after 4500kms.
Started stalling intermittently after 6000kms.
Intermittent unresponsiveness to throttle (push pedal down and motor rpm's don't increase for about 5 seconds, then the rpms jump and transmission engages), after 6000kms.
Rough idle after 6000kms.
Car has been to dealer for repair 4 times and is currently in for repair. Attempts to repair car so far has been unsuccessful.
General comments?
I enjoyed the car until it turned into a lemon. Now it is a nightmare and consumes too much of my time (taking in for repairs).
