1. I love my lil Toyota. No problems in 8 years of ownership

[nemo137]

2. My mom had a 93 Tercel that she loved

It finally died on her last year, and she was despondent. You think maybe there's been some changes in Toyota's engineering or production staffs?

12. Broken seatbelts are a pain. I had one go on my Volvo

and it was several hundred dollars to fix. There were some pyrotechnics or something like that built into the newer belts.


Anyway, I've had my frustrations with even my beloved Volvo. I couldn't get a new
backseat for 7+ months because there wasn't one available anywhere in the whole world. Volvo eventually made it right, and if Toyota plans on staying around as a car manufacturer they will figure out their problems, separate the real ones from the fakes, and make it right. Otherwise they won't make it as a car company. Their market share must truly suck at this point.

17. The ones I've owned have been great, but I don't currently have one so I can't

say anything about the latest models. I had a Tercel in the 80's that was an extremely reliable and safe car. Our Tundra was great too, we sold
it about a year ago when we moved. Never had any problems with either one.
