“Since the day we leased 2013 Toyota Corolla july 2013, the car is all over the road. Constantly have to correct to keep in lane, buzzy, vibration. Very scary in the rain and snow. Constantly tcb locks front right brake and pull car towards the ditch. Had to back down a hill in the snow several times that we have driven over many years. Why would you put 55 series tire on a small car like this unless to cover up steering issues. We have 4 blizzack new snow tires and still scary to drive. Never had this problem with any of our other 16 prior Toyota's. …”

“I just bought a 2013 Toyota Corolla on friday 4/12/13 and noticed while driving off the lot the steering wheel was cocked to the left a little and if straightened the car would veer to the right. I figured I would take it in next week to get fixed but wasn't too worried about it. The next night I was driving for the first time on the freeway around 65-70 MPH and felt like the car was all over the road and it was very hard to keep it straight in the lane. It felt like it was really windy and the car was being pushed left and right even if I kept the wheel straight. …”

“The contact owns a 2013 Toyota Corolla. While driving approximately 40 MPH, the rear end of the vehicle began to pull to the right. The failure recurred most frequently when driving in rainy weather or snow covered roads. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer six times. A four wheel alignment and a wheel balance were performed however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 100.”
