2001 Toyota Corolla LE review from North America
"The worst car I have ever owned!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first picked up the car:
The driver's door handle had a scratch.
The driver's door was off alignment.
The wheel alignment is off.
The driver's side visor is broken.
There is a scratch on the dash.
The dome light switch is deformed.
The molding in the trunk sticks up.
The temperature gauge does not read correctly.
The 3rd brake light was loose.
The tires were all under inflated.
The battery was not charged.
The center seat belt buckle was scratched.
General comments?
I work in the auto industry and I am insulted to have seen a brand new vehicle in this kind of condition and neither the dealer nor Toyota has yet made good on the vehicle.
I fight with the steering wheel to keep my car straight. I will never buy another Toyota again!
