Paint on front bumper has peeled and fallen off, now it is flat back. Service tech told me I probably bumped a curb while parking and that makes the paint fall off. Stated it was a manufacturers defect but Toyota has not acknowledged yet so they will do nothing to correct it. I thought that's what a bumper guard was for. Dumb me. Also milage is not what it is rated. On a good day gets about 24 mpg.Also "tires for life" program sucks. Salesman stated "Free tires as long as you own the car, regardless". Did not tell me I also needed to buy Road Hazard on them. Sooo, I have bought 3 tires. I do have road hazard now. Thanks Deluca Toyota for hiring such ace salesmen to take advantage of us!

My car dashboard rattles when I drive specially in the freeway. I took it to the dealer and they just put some insulation in it. The car still rattles, so I will take it back to service.

Ive owned my Matrix for almost 2 months now.. and the car is awesome... my previous car was a 1994 Acura Integra GSR... Although the Acura was a "sportier" car... the matrix doesnt fall behind at all... sure, the acceleration was quicker in the Acura, but not by much, and if you factor in comfort, style and the snazzy 6th gear... the Matrix comes out on top... its no slouch, the 1/4 mile a respectable 15.6@91. the car seats 5 comfortably, and had more headroom than needed... If you need to carry something, the Matrix can handle the task well, giving some amazing room with the 2 rear seats folding to a 60/40 position...
