Generally, I'd agree, although there have been a couple of disturbing Corolla recalls lately....the latest one being some 1 million 2005-2008 models for an engine-control-module that can cause stalling. This, in addition to the power-stering recall on the '08 models.

But, yes, when you look at the Corolla's entire history (and its Chevy Nova/Geo Prizm offshoots), its reliability has been top-tier.

I dont' think there is one family who didn't own a corolla at one point.

We had a 90, 93, 2 x 95s, and finally a 97
