1998 Toyota Corolla CE review from North America
"Cheap overrated junk"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel injectors failed at 27,000 miles.
Steering system makes creaking and groaning noises when parking.
Paint is inferior.
Brake rotors constantly warp.
Power door locks intermittently do not work.
Poor fit and finish.
General comments?
Toyota does not know how to engineer automobiles at all and should be investigated and fined. These cars do not compare in quality to Honda or even Saturn and Pontiac.
