  I got rid of it! - 2000 Toyota Corolla
  By Kana - October 28 - 2:50 pm

  I purchased Corolla on the basis of staunch quality history. Unfortunately, I got nothing but issues. No Kidding! Here they are: Exhaust manifold flange gasket, all 4 power window motors, rear engine main seal, instrument cluster lights went out, inner tie rod, and huge vibration at 65mph. Yes, the car never got me stuck on the road, but I think Ill stick with other more reliable quality vehicles out there.

  Slightly disappointed - 2000 Toyota Corolla
  By jds2805 - September 5 - 2:22 pm

  Perhaps I got a dud but I was disappointed. I kept up all maintanence. But at 194k miles the transmission went out, shocks went out, gasket blew and alternator died. 194k miles for a Toyota is to soon for transmission and engine problems. Especially since the early 90s models are going 250k+ miles with no problems. It did get great gas mileage and maintanence was cheap. Id still take Toyota over Ford or Dodge any day.

  Toyota dependability - 2000 Toyota Corolla
  By Modameister - March 13 - 9:56 pm

  I have had this car for a little over 4 years. I bought it when it had just over 50k miles on it. Now, it has almost 120k miles. I plan on running it for another 100 or 200k. Its a good little car and will probably be around for my kids to drive when they are old enough in another 16 years. My only issues with it are its not very roomy, Im 68" and dont fit very well, but I fit in here as well as I do in most cars, even bigger cars. The drivers side handle has broken, the ceiling fabric has developed a rip in the rear by the rear window from the drivers side windows being open. The drivers inside handle is broken and the window doesnt roll up. I only get just over 30 mpg. It was 36.

  Motor went - 2000 Toyota Corolla
  By Tracy Humphrey - October 13 - 2:56 am

  Our car started burning oil after just 4 years of owning it. We kept taking it back to the dealer with no luck on getting it fixed. We just kept putting oil into it every week. Then the motor went at 212,000. We were shocked. We will never buy another Toyota again after what we went through.

  Great car, with one huge exception: burns oil - 2000 Toyota Corolla
  By Marlene Arnao - August 3 - 11:50 pm

  Need to a add one quart of oil for 175 miles. Burns oil and clogs exhaust system. I was told that this is a problem with models from 2000 to 2003. I replaced the engine, hoping to "fix the problem", but the replacement engine was just the same. I threw away $2,000.00. Very disappointed. The car is great otherwise. Update: Great mechanic fixed the problem!! Im happy with the car now.
