Recalls and complaints

NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Owners filed 220 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, structure and unknown or other; have those parts checked. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.

Under the hood

The powertrain to know here is the 1.8L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.

At 7.5 L/100 km combined, a 300 km drive takes roughly 23 litres of fuel. Every 100 km costs about $11.63 in fuel at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,125 a year for 15,000 miles.

What the Corolla is like

As a mid-size car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The EPA measures its luggage space at 368 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who the Corolla suits

It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

Try before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent the Corolla for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.

Money matters

Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $11.63 in fuel. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.

Which one to look for

Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
