Beige Bites Back – Toyotapocalypse Pt. III

by Rod Edwards on February 11, 2010

Toyota’s undeniably made some serious missteps. But I can’t help sympathize with them when they complaints like this recent series of Corolla steering issues that have bubbled up. Jalopnik explains awesomely below.

Complainants have compared the movement to being buffeted by strong winds, sliding on black ice, or hydroplaning. They said that after trying to straighten the car, it can overcorrect — requiring the driver to use a tight, persistent, two-handed grip on the wheel to travel in a straight line. Yes, that’s right — keeping both hands on the wheel constantly will solve the problem.
