Good little car

After two solid months, I am very pleased with my car. Does it have the best acceleration? No, but then again I'm a grown up and don't feel the need to screech tires, etc... As far as fuel mileage, it's rated at 37 mpg hwy but on a Thanksgiving trip from Shreveport, LA to Austin, San Antonio, and the Dallas/Ft Worth metroplex I averaged almost 38 mpg. That's including high traffic areas of those aforementioned cities. I commute 9 miles to work one way. I average 32 mpg during true combined hwy/city conditions. I can only assume other reviewers complaining about fuel efficiency have poor driving habits and are a little heavy on the accelerator.

Fast for its class, not comfortable

Ride is pretty rough. Fuel mileage definitely not as advertised. If you're tall, you'll hit your head almost every time you get in. Comfortable once inside, plenty of head room, but getting out will be a challenge if you're not agile.

An Awesome Daily Driver

Note: I'm reviewing this car for what it is -- a compact sedan. I hadn't planned on buying a Toyota. I even told myself I wouldn't because of the experience my relative had with an 09 Corolla. However, in my frustrations with my year old Nissan, I went to a Toyota dealership just to look. Boy was I shocked. It seems to be built to last, but I suppose that's to be expected of a manufacturer with a track record of bulletproof reliability. The CVT is awesome, but more on that in a little bit. The sound system is nifty. It's gorgeous. I get a lot of complements on the looks of both the interior and exterior. I got it in Slate Grey Metallic. However, it has its cons.

Great Value

I cross shopped the Corolla, Ford Focus, Mazda3 and Honda Civic. With incentives, the Corolla was the best value in a fully loaded compact. This is my eighth Toyota or Lexus product and the previous seven have been bullet proof mechanically.

Love the car, dislike warranty!

I have always driven Corollas, this is my third. The other two were base models, this is an S-Plus. My car was a year old when I purchased it, had 17,000 miles at time of purchase. Everything is great on it except a problem where the Traction Control light came on along with the steering becoming loose and the wheel developing a 45-degree tilt to the right. It has been in 2, going in next week for a 3rd, time to try and fix the issue. It usually is solved for a week or so and the same issue returns. Toyota insists this is not their fault and is not covered by the warranty when clearly it keeps returning and is an electrical or mechanical issue. They say to fix it permanently I'd have to pay out of pocket with an estimate of as much as $3,000 which I absolutely do not have. It's not a safety issue per Toyota but in winter with ice and snow I would feel more comfortable if my traction light worked not to mention uneven wear on the tires. This problem really upsets me as Toyota should fix it and I cannot afford to. The rest of the car is good- reliable, brakes are great, very nice looking- it is still a new car, it should not be having the steering issue. Toyota: Please cover all of these Corolla S with this same steering issue! I am a loyal Toyota customer but am angry wtih your handling of this situation.
