2001 Toyota Corolla Owner Comments

The original rack and pinion needed to be replaced after getting to the point that all the steering fluid was on my garage floor one morning. A dealership replaced it a second time also to try to eliminate an additional 'ratcheting' felt in the steering wheel, especially after making a tight turn. This still didn't fix that problem. It ended up being a wheel bearing on the front driver side found by a small town independent mechanic - thank goodness these guys/gals are still around.

Expected more from a Toyota, still have an '04 Tundra double cab that I love though. This is a great site, keep up the good work!
