2006 Toyota Corolla Owner Comments

problem #2

Corolla LX 2.0L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 109,000 miles

The paint is fading off to the metal. Thru primer and all.

Rust starting on hood and roof. It looks terrible.

I'm 68 years old, and have owned a number of vehicles. I've never seen a car do this.

I don't want to spend a lot on a paint job for an older vehicle.

I was curious if others have same issue. It's not a very good advertisement for Toyota.

paint thinning/rust paint thinning/rust paint thinning/rust

I'm only here to complain about my 2006 Blue Toyota Corolla's roof rusting, and the paint thinning on the rest of the car because I've noticed this problem on so many other 2006 Blue Toyota Corollas or similar models all over the country wherever I travel. This seems to be a pervasive issue and I'm not sure how to hold Toyota accountable for what seems to be something that is most definitely their fault.

Does anyone know a class action suit involving the rusting out of the Corolla or small vehicle models (not the SUV or truck) from the this time period? Please feel free to contact me with suggestions and comments through the web form.

Thanks and best of luck with your own "gripes" ;)
