“The vehicle was in motion on freeway taking my grandson to practice it was heavy traffic alot of breaking every time I would break my breaks felt like they would lock everytime I would break. I got concern got off freeway called dealer to inspect my brakes. …”
NHTSA complaint #10846478, filed 2016-03, 142,675 miles“As noted on the news about a possible recall about the steering problems on the 2010 Toyota Corolla. I also own a 2010 Corolla and even before the news I had problems keeping the car straight on the road. The condition gets worse at higher speeds and the problem increases when there is less gas in the tank. I took the car to the dealer to check/fix the alignment and it seems to help a little bit but the problem is still there.”
NHTSA complaint #10311723, filed 2010-02, 100 miles“I bought Corolla 2010 in oct 2009. I had the problem of it wandering and hard to keep the car in the lane. I took it to dealership and they told me it was alignment problem. After it was there for a day it started wandering in the other direction. Then they told me it could be tire pressure and took it back to the dealership. I still have the same problem and it wanders at speed above 50 MPH. I saw there have been more reports about it and I hope Toyota does something about it.”
NHTSA complaint #10313896, filed 2010-02, 400 miles“I have been taking my Corolla to the dealership almost every week since 01/28/2010 and every week I complained about how the car was drifting side to side and how on low windy days I have to fight the steering wheel to keep it in its lane at speeds above 65mph. And every time I take it over there they say well the car is working to factory standards and they will send me on my way. I have had my brakes bled and my car alignment done twice and the car only has 2000+ miles on it. …”
