2000 Toyota Corolla CE review from North America
"Overrated and Unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine rebuilt by Toyota at 59,000 miles.
Engine light on - oxygen sensor replaced per computer diagnostic, but came back on.
Transmission shifts harshly, even after transmission service. Engagement into drive or reverse is very abrupt as well.
Paint is very thin - chips and scratches easily.
General comments?
Wife bought new before we were married. Previously owned a 1990 Corolla that was much more reliable.
Great fuel economy.
Poor feature/price ratio.
Overrated vehicle.
