My 2010 toyota corolla le seems to wander randomly left or right. it is difficult to travel in a straight line without frequent adjustment to the steering column. it feels like i am driving on a windy day and the car is being tossed around. actually, any wind at all only makes the matter much worse. almost feels like the rear end of the car has a slight fishtailing. this is all most noticeable at 45 mph and above. local service dept. could not look at it for three weeks. i will not let my 17 year old daughter drive this car. i have had this car for only six weeks and would surely give it back if i could. disappointed that i did not get a response to my emails sent to toyota. *tr
2010 toyota corolla s purchased in december 2009. i reported to toyota the fact that my car's steering seems to wander all over on the post-purchase survey sent to me. it happens daily on my work commute of 35 miles one way. nothing has been done, there has been no contact. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. while driving approximately 60 mph the vehicle became extremely difficult to control. the contact stated that while driving at faster speeds the steering wheel becomes stiff. the dealer was contacted and stated that the steering wheel would loosen up as the contact continued to drive since it was a new vehicle. the failure continued to occur. the approximate failure mileage was 125.
The steering in my 2010 toyota corolla "s" is hard to control and, i feel unsafe, at highway speeds. the car wanders all over the road, requiring constant correction. however, often minor corrections fail to have any effect, and major corrections result in overcorrection, often making the car leave the lane. toyota claims this is just the nature of its "electric" steering. i disagree. i no longer drive my car (brand new, mind you... fewer than 2,000 miles) on the highway. the problem isn't present at city speeds. *tr
My toyota corolla sways back and forth very badly above speeds of around 40 to 50 mph. *tr
Steering issues......vehicle begins shaking at speeds over 35 mph. *tr
We have a new 2010 toyota corolla with about 3,000 miles on it. the steering on this car is "strange" -- it has little to no road feedback and seems to have "dead spots" in it -- you have to give it more effort to get pass these. the result is that it is difficult to keep it in a steady/smooth line when driving on the highway -- you need to make constant corrective movements to the steering wheel. the fact that there is no road feel/feedback contributes to this problem. while i need to enter a date to proceed with this complaint form, this steering issue occurs at all times since we have owned the car. we also have a 2002 toyota avalon -- and its steering and road feel is great. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. one week after the vehicle was purchased, the vehicle began to exhibit steering failures. when driving at higher speeds, the steering wheel would constantly move back and forth without driver intent. the vehicle was taken back to the dealer where they attempted to align the steering wheel but to no avail. the vehicle was diagnosed by the dealer on two occasions for the same failure. the dealer advised the contact that the vehicle may have been designed to operate in that manner. there were no recalls for the failure. the failure mileage was 982 and the current was 6,220. updated 05/06/10. *lj the consumer stated the vehicle was very unstable. especially when driving on the highway at higher speeds. the dealer performed two alignments, but it did not resolve the issue. updated 07/16/10.*jb
When i drove my 2010 corolla from the dealer it had five miles on it. within one half mile i realized that the car wandered left and right and needed me to steer left and right to keep the car in the center of the road. i knew right away that the problem was the caster adjustment was set so the caster was faced forward. i brought it back and the service mgr said it was designed to have the caster set forward by two degrees. i am 72 and a car guy. a forward caster will cause the car not to be able to steer straight. it was to be driven by my grand daughter who has 18 months driving experience. we brought it in for service to have the caster set to 'follow' rather than 'lead'. the service people said it was set to toyota designs of two degrees forward. that is the problem along with, maybe, something in the electronic controls that might be adding to the problem. someone is going to get killed. if toyota doesn't speak to this and correct it i need to have this car replaced by an amish horse and carriage. toyota has introduced a new feature that is deadly. *tr
Bought a 2010 corolla on 12/26/09 with goodyear eagle ls 2 tires. upon driving home my steering was weaving left to right felt as though i was driving on ice and/or hydroplaning. toyota regional rep came from corporate, looked at the steering 2 wks ago. steering improved until driving in rain on 4/4/10 the steering became loose and the car was weaving left to right and i was once again hydroplaning at 65 mph goodyear man said when traction is lost to the road, the vehicle will hydroplane. (these tires are dangerous) *tr the consumer stated it was very difficult to control the steering. the vehicle would wander into the next lane. the consumer also stated the vehicle did not always stop in time when the brakes were applied. the consumer was told the vehicle was equipped with abs and they were much better and safer. updated ivoq 03/10/11

Purchases new corolla on 12/26/09. upon driving 18 miles to my home on the freeway, i found it hard to steer the car. it felt like i was driving on ice or hydroplaning. what a scary feeling. i called my salesman, he said bring it in, but i had to get home to care for my 85 yr old mother who has dementia. i have taken it in once. the alignment was off only in the toe and adjusted as were the over-inflated tires of 37 lbs each, adjusted to 34 lbs. the accelerator pedal was replace though i had no problems. the steering is still very sensitive having to pull the car on a straight path as it tends to veer to the left or the right. my master repair mechanic and i went on a drive today, 02/18/10. he said that the rear wheels were not aligning with the steering. felt as though you were sitting sideways and trying to drive. i will have an appt on monday, 02/22/10 again with folsom toyota, lets see what we can do??? cars keep at a distance away from me as i constantly have to steer the car correctly within the lane??? ps this is my 4th new toyota, never drove one that felt this scary! *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. while driving 30 mph, the contact noticed that the vehicle began to drift. the failure continued to occur intermittently. the dealer stated that it appeared to be safe at this time and she may need some time getting adjusted to electronic steering. the failure mileage was not available. the current mileage was 1,000.
While driving at highway speeds in light to moderate wind the vehicle is difficult to maintain direction. vehicle will continually wander and requires constant correction to maintain desired direction of travel. *tr
I own a 2010 toyota corolla and am awaiting the repair for the accelerator issue. this complaint is related to the electric power steering. the car does not want to track in a straight line. you must keep both hands on the wheel and are constantly tweaking the steering wheel to the right and left to keep the vehicle driving straight. the higher the speed, the more problematic the steering is. gusty winds make you feel like you could lose control at any minute. i am hoping that toyota will step up and acknowledge an issue with the steering is the vehicle can be exhausting to drive like this. each tiny input forces the car to veer in that direction immediately and you then correct to the other direction and it veers that way. i have never owned a car that required this much attention and effort to drive in a straight line. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. he stated that when driving 25 mph and making a turn the steering wheel stayed in that same position and never returned to the straight position. he also stated that when driving and trying to engage the brake pedal he had to apply a lot pressure on the pedal so that it could decrease the speed. the failure was duplicated and the contact advised that the vehicle was functioning normally. no repairs were made to the vehicle. the failure mileage was 300 and the current mileage was 888.
2010 toyota corolla le which suddenly veers left or right at high speeds (45mph or greater). while holding the steering wheel perfectly straight, the car will wander left or right causing the driver to correct the steering and pay excessive attention to simply keeping the car in its own lane. this occurs all the time when driving above 45mph. no accident has taken place, but i fear for myself and my family members who drive the vehicle. as a result, we have driven the car sparingly or only for local destinations which do not require taking a highway. i have taken the car to a dealership where the service advisor admitted that the steering is "too sensitive" causing the vehicle to "wander" and that while there is "no fix for it yet [he] hopes for a fix soon." regardless of these statements, he wrote on my service papers that the vehicle "road tested normal characteristic." a month later, i called the service advisor again to complain about the problem still persisting. i requested to bring in the car for an additional review of the problem. he denied my request by stating that "there's no point in bringing in the car until a fix is issued." i then brought the vehicle to another dealership, which was not helpful at all. they outright denied my claim that there was a problem and stated on my service paperwork that the "vehicle drives normal" and that they "cannot duplicate the customer concern." no fix has been done and the vehicle sits in the garage virtually untouched (less than 800 miles) when it was bought over 3 months ago. *cn
I have a 2010 corolla it constantly sways while driving at freeway speeds. sometimes i need to hold onto the steering wheel with both hands to keep it from going into another lane. i switched from driving a small vw beetle and was familiar with strong winds causing these problems but when i looked out the window there was no wind all the trees were still and no flags were waving. there has been a couple of times when i really felt the car was going to swerve out of control if i didn't immediately slow down. i also feel a metal grinding sensation with my brakes when i slow down over uneven pavement or go over a speed bump. this doesn't happen every time but in the past 2 months that i've had the car it occurred 6 times. i told the toyota dealership about these problems and they said it couldn't be duplicated and that there was nothing wrong with the car. which is completely ridiculous there hasn't been a time that i've driven on the freeway and not felt this swaying. they didn't even try to find a problem. they didn't do a thing to help me. than i heard of other corolla owners having the same problems. so i know it's not just me, there is a problem with my car and they need to recognize they made another mistake. *tr
I own a 2010 corolla-it is at the dealer again. now i have heard there might be a problem. i was taking my car to the dealer before any of this news came out-asking them to check the front end. the cars keeps going in other lanes and has almost caused an accident. but the dealer insist there is nothing wrong with my car. help at this point i am scared of the car. there have been several incidents. *tr
When i am driving on the high way, my steering wheel becomes very sensitive and starts jerking and my car starts veering to one side. i have to grab the steering wheel very tightly just to travel in a straight line. i feel like i'm driving in a hurricane but the trees outside are barely moving. *tr

I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla in december. during the test drive i commented that the steering felt funny, but the dealer and i chalked it up to the road conditions. i continue to observe that the car is weaving back and forth especially on the freeway. if i hadn't seen the news story about this issue, i probably would have just assumed that the steering was "touchy" for lack of a better word. now that i know that this is a real safety issue, coupled with the gas pedal issue, i will be contacting the dealer. *tr
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. she stated that while driving approximately 70 mph the steering wheel exhibits a jerking motion. the failure occurs every time the vehicle is driven. the contact stated that after 24 hours they could not duplicate the failure. she has had two other people drive the vehicle who confirmed that they also experienced the steering wheel malfunction. there have been no repairs done to the vehicle. the failure mileage was 260 and the current mileage was 1559.
Tl*the contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. while driving at least 55 mph, the steering wheel would not remain in a straight position. occasionally, the steering wheel would pull to the left or right direction without driver intent. the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer, no repairs have been made. the failure mileage was 1,000 and the current mileage was 3,000.
2010 toyota corolla - the car has poor steering. it drifts all over the highway. requires constant correction like i am driving in heavy winds. i brought it into a toyota dealer and they claim there is nothing wrong with it. they say i need to get used to elctronic assisted steering. i have been driving it for four months now, and i cannot "get used to it".
Cars alignment is out of whack. while driving the car will turn on it own to the right or left reported it to toyota and they said we cant do anything. *tr
Car wonders while driving on a straight road or highway, usually about 40 mph or faster, constant feeling of drifting (feels like there is a strong crosswind blowing the car around.) tire pressure is proper as stated on door jam, as well makes no difference in steering if tire pressure is lower or higher. *tr
Original filing: odi#10317281 on dec 12, 2009 as ... "at speeds over 50 mph the steering wheel seems to "lock" into a position and resists being moved to either side until excessive force is applied, several pounds of force i would say, then the steering wheel jumps to a new position and the car takes off to that side, requiring another hard pull on the steering wheel to try to go back toward center. i had to fight this car for three hours each way on the highway, and the slightest inattention was likely to result in the car heading for one edge or the other of the lane, since it seems to periodically just "drift" off path for no apparent reason-- no change in road slope or geometry, but the car would start moving toward one side of the other. (tire pressures were checked before the trip). ... .... resolution: after 19 months of avoiding using the car for highway driving, we took the 2010 corolla s to dealer where it was purchased, with 7600 miles on it on march 17, 2011 and requested them to check for service bulletins related to the continuing problems with steering control (or lack of it!) and they replaced the steering ecu under toyota service bulletin 0140-10r1 with a new ecu (toyota part #89650-12c20 ) this work was done under warranty, no charges. no other changes to tire pressure or alignment were done, but the results are amazing! the car actually handles and responds to the steering wheel like you would expect, and is easy to steer accurately within the lane at speeds up to 70mph (local speed limit) and does not require constant fighting with the steering wheel to try to correct vehicle direction. much much better! i wish that we had found out about this service bulletin last year, since it was issued by toyota back in aug. 2010, but it seems they don't advise anyone of this tsb, and only perform this replacement if the owner makes a specific complaint, after the aug.2010 date. thanks to odi for your help. ...
At speed it is difficult to steer and control my 2010 toyota corolla s. it "drifts" from side-to-side. if i do not use both hands, the car drifts from the lane marker, and at times into the next lane (to my left). i have to overcompensate and correct to the right so that i do not strike someone. the steering feels very loose. i first noticed this characteristic a few weeks after purchase (approximately 12-20-09. their is not one particular incident, but rather it is a persistent characteristic of the steering. *tr
2010 toyota corolla "s" purchased by my wife in july 2009, with automatic transmission . she drives the car only locally on suburban streets, at speeds less than 45 mph, and has placed less than 3000 miles on the car in 7 months. recently we took the car for a 'road trip' of about 175 miles each way, with me driving. this car does not "steer" properly on the highway, if "proper" means that it follows the drivers input and control movements. at low speeds it seems that the steering wheel moves easily like most cars with power steering, and the car follows the steering wheel movements fairly well. but at speeds over 50 mph the steering wheel seems to "lock" into a position and resists being moved to either side until excessive force is applied, several pounds of force i would say, then the steering wheel jumps to a new position and the car takes off to that side, requiring another hard pull on the steering wheel to try to go back toward center. i had to fight this car for three hours each way on the highway, and the slightest inattention was likely to result in the car heading for one edge or the other of the lane, since it seems to periodically just "drift" off path for no apparent reason-- no change in road slope or geometry, but the car would start moving toward one side of the other. (tire pressures were checked before the trip). our family has owned 6 toyotas before this one, and none of them has ever had the lack of response and "wandering" problems of this car. we still own a 1992 celica, which is a corolla in a sporty body style, and it "tracks" beautifully to the drivers control, with over 200,000 miles on it. i think that if a car had a steering system with apparent looseness in it that would duplicate the side directions of this corolla, while the steering wheel is not being moved from straight ahead, that car would not pass its annual safety test in this state. this car requires a constant struggle to keep it in its lane at highway speeds. *tr
My daughter was driving her new corolla (2010) home from college in december 2009. when she got home she was extremely upset and told me that she had encountered a steering problem with the car on her way home -- she couldn't keep the car centered on the highway as the car kept moving to the left and right. about two weeks later (december 2009) i was driving the car at about 65 mph down the highway and could not keep the car on center. it felt like i was caught in a terrible crosswind, moving me from left to right as i tried to stay on center. i ended up having to keep both hands on the steering wheel just to maintain control of the car. it was the same problem my daughter had experienced. in my 30 years of driving i have never had an experience like that before. it does not appear to be a problem at lower speeds just highway speeds and, to date, this problem has only happened those two times. *tr
I purchased a new 2010 toyota corolla from autoway toyota in saint petersburg for my wife on 12/06/09. we were stressed out after hours of haggling and high pressure from the salesmen. the next day when i drove the car more (with only 40 miles on it) i noticed that the steering was hard to handle. it wandered. i found that i have to keep 2 hands on the wheel and eyes wide as it is unpredictable. in around 6 or 7 days i was back at autoway trying for hours to get them to take it back and sell me a camry for more money!! the corolla had only 85 miles on it. but they said it had been titled, so they wanted to buy it back for a $3000+ loss to us, and then make money on the sale of another vehicle (which is the ways of the car dealer). we are stuck. so, if asked, i would testify in court that the steering in this car could cause an accident. the odds are much higher with this steering system, that someone could be hurt or killed. a car with only 40 miles on it and you notice a problem like this? imagine when it has 100,000 miles and worn tires! i have always loved toyota, until this. it makes me sick every time i drive it, and make the payment! i told my family, friends, and autoway 2 months before todays news about the steering problem broke!! any way i can help with this problem(especially if they(autoway/ and toyota) will take the car back, i will! call me to testify..*tr

For corolla 2010 as you make turns, it makes a strange noise, for a brand new car that is very unusual. *tr

When driving at speed over 50 mph my car pulls to the right making it dangerous to control. i feel like for that time its pulling i have no control over my vehicle and if driving in left lane of 2 lane highway or road that i may end up causing an accident with vehicles driving in right lane beside me. *tr

The steering on my 2010 toyota corolla is very "loose" - in other words, the car tends to wander within a lane while going straight. it takes more than normal vigilance to keep the car going straight. it seems to be buffeted by the wind (such as when passing a large truck) more than any other vehicle i have ever owned. i feel the necessity to keep both hands on the wheel to keep the car from drifting on the road. other vehicles i have had track in a straight line even with my hands off of the steering wheel - not so with the corolla. the car requires a lot of attention to drive and can be tiring to drive for extended periods. *tr
Toyota of kingsport 2525 east stone drive kingsport, tn 37660 on november 27, 2009, i purchased a 2010 toyota corolla, from a 3rd party for my ex-wife of gate city, virginia. during the test drive, the 3rd party and i discussed the accelerator problem that was being reported in the news and on many internet websites. he assured me that there was not a problem. he also told me that the corolla had never in its entire history been the subject of a recall. i later found out this to be untrue. there is also a problem with the steering on this car. it wanders at higher speeds and will not hold a straight line. this is a serious and dangerous defect, especially for a 60-year old woman. you cannot take your eye off the road even for a split second or you may find yourself in the next lane or running off the road. this is highly unacceptable. according to the news, this steering defect has been reported to toyota on many occasions. my ex wife is on disability. she had major heart surgery in february, 2009. she had two heart valves replaced, two heart artery by-passes and had to have a graft on her heart aorta. she has many other disabilities to deal with. this was her first new car in 13 years. she previously drove a toyota tercel for 13 years - a good car. together, we have owned a camry, tercel, tundra, tacoma and now this corolla. but i can assure you that this will be the last toyota i will ever buy. toyota has know about these defects but still continued to sell them to the public. the word that comes to mind is fraud. i am at a loss as what to do. i am also on disability and cannot afford to replace this car for her and i worry each day that she has to drive this car. please respond in writing how you plan to address this situation. as each day passes, the chance of her being involved in an accident grows greater. you will receive a copy of this letter by certified mail. *tr
Bought 2010 corolla on 11/21/09 with 6 miles. upon driving home, i noticed the steering wheel is not centered, but slightly crooked to the left. when we hop into the fwy and doing 50mph+, the vehicle starts to drift left and right. i had to make small corrections by steering it left and right to make the car drives straight. my girlfriend drove the vehicle yesterday and upon making a left curve on the freeway doing 60mph, the steering was not fully responsive. she veered one lane to the right instead! we were lucky that the fwy was empty at that moment. i feel that there is a steering problem that makes this vehicle dangerous to drive. *tr

Steering and gas throttle problem. sometimes having difficulties steering the vehicle straight and it feels like you 're not in control with the wheel. even sometimes at lower speed. regarding gas throttle there are times that the gas pedal is not responding while you are steeping the gas pedal. it's like driving on a neutral gear. we have not reported the steering problem but we have reported the gas pedal issue twice to the dealer. it so happen that the 2nd complain we did was the time they started doing the recall. gas pedal where change as the recall required.the steering problem is now a newer concern for us. we have experienced the problem with steering before but we just ignore it. because it's been raining in our area during the fast few weeks. we where thinking that the roads are just wet and somewhat it is slippery to drive but even the weather had changed we sometimes experienced the same problem with the steering. last encounter with the steering problem is today(02/20/2010). *tr

Bought new corolla 2010 for my wife about three months ago. i thought right from the first drive that its steering wheel was very sensitive, that is, even small motions of the steering wheel appear to get amplified to relatively larger directional changes on the moving car. however, my wife did not think so. typically, however, she drives it at slow speeds, like, at most 40 mph, as she avoids highways. we have never driven it at higher speeds like 65-70 mph where i understand some other corollas start meandering. i don't know if it is the same problem i am describing above. but after having read about similar problems to 2010 corollas, which are recently so much in the news, i thought we should report it too. *tr
Soon after purchasing, i noticed the car pulling to the right. steering was not as good as my old car. backing up from my garage is wobbly instead of straight back. after seeing others with similar complaints, i thought i should report my experience with my 2010 corolla purchased oct. 2, 2009. *tr
I bought corolla 2010 in oct 2009. i had the problem of it wandering and hard to keep the car in the lane. i took it to dealership and they told me it was alignment problem. after it was there for a day it started wandering in the other direction. then they told me it could be tire pressure and took it back to the dealership. i still have the same problem and it wanders at speed above 50 mph. i saw there have been more reports about it and i hope toyota does something about it. *tr
I bought a 2010 toyota corolla for my away-from-home college-student daughter. we were aware of the floormat problem when we bought the car and took delivery on october 28, 2009. the accelerator issue became known in january, 2010. the power steering issue just became public this week. i drove the car for two weeks after taking delivery to check it out for any manufacturing defects and to break it in. i did not notice any unusual behaviors for any of these problems while driving around town during this break-in period. however, i did notice when i was on the interstate while delivering the car to my daughter that the electrically-assisted power steering had an unusual vagueness to it. the car felt like it was being buffeted by high wind or turbulence from following a tractor-trailer too closely, even though the wind was calm and there were no trucks within one mile of me. as i made very minor course corrections as the road curved or to change lanes, it felt like the steering was being over-boosted, which caused a bigger path correction than intended or expected. then i got a similar reaction in the opposite direction when i tried to correct the over-correction. i think it would be fair to say that the steering wheel felt as if it was connected to the front wheels with a rope. the car has goodyear eagle rs-a tires; i have had several sets of these tires of different sizes in the past, and don't believe they are a problem. i have driven other vehicles with electrically-boosted power steering and and i don't recall such behavior. indeed, i have a class b cdl to drive motorcoaches and the older ones with over 1/2 million miles on them have more direct steering. this situation has not caused an accident; i just want to weigh in on the potential problem. i have offered my daughter another car to drive, but she insists on driving the corolla. *tr
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s on 11-7-2009. on the test drive i complained to the salesman that the steering felt strange. it seemed to have a center spot and then any left or right turn would cause a minor pull either direction as if the steering turned on. the salesman said it was the electric steering on all the new cars. that was a slow speed test drive. after the purchase i got on the interstate and was shocked to feel the steering feel as if i were going around a semi tractor trailer rig and being pushed around by the wind, but yet i was not near a vehicle. it seemed like loose steering or tire squirm. when i got back from my trip i took it to the local toyota service center and asked if there is an adjustment on the power steering or if there is an issue with the tires. to both questions my service advisor said no. on another trip on the interstate, it all of a sudden started acting like it was going to fish tail swinging back and forth, like i was ridding on balloon tires, or without sidewalls. i quickly slowed down. in cross winds or going around a semi it is worse. at my 5,000 service, i asked if there are any steering or tire issues, and my advisor still said no, but part of the service was to rotate the tires, and this has seemed to lessen the squirm. i now have 7,000 miles on my 2010 toyota corolla s. *tr
