2002 Toyota Corolla Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

This car was purchased new and never failed to the task. I did my mechanic myself and parts are dirt cheap. This models had issue with oil consumption but for everybody who ones one try making a few engine flush on you next few oil change. My 19 years old car is all banged-up as it was used by my son and 2 daughter for student car... The thing refused to die even after my daughter ran it dry 3 time without oil... I will never find another car like this one. Not a sparkling sporty by any means but the most reliable tank you will ever get.

IT IS A VERY RELIABLE VEHICLE WHICH HAS GIVEN ME THE GREATEST SATISFACTION OVER THE COURSE OF 14 YEARS. I LOVE IT!!!

My Toyota Corolla is incredible. I've had it for over ten years and it's runs amazing. Other than changing the breaks, oil changes, and getting new tires, I never really have to do much with it. It's a great and super reliable car.

That it gets good gas mileage and is very dependable.

Problems: at this point, I do have a bit of squeaking in the driver’s side, but I know it is merely the springs itself. I have had to replace the back and front struts, and currently I have a strange creaking noise when making a right hand turn. I am unsure as to what the problem is at current, but I am keeping an eye on my fluid levels. So far, I haven't had too many issues with it aside from these. Regular maintenance and break changes when needed. Performance: my car still accelerates like it is supposed do, with very little engine noise. The gas consumption is perfect. Reliability: my car has been very reliable so far. It is older now, but with this particular brand and year of vehicle, if you take good care of it, it’ll more than make up for maintenance costs. What’s different with mine as well is the fact that I do not do much in terms of long distance driving. The odometer can in a ways be a true indicator of age. Before I got my license, the car had been sitting for a good four years at least in one spot. All that failed were the tires and battery. Comfort: it has bucket seats, which could cause a problem when you have bad knees. There is enough space for four people to ride in comfort. Features: the version I drive is a ce, so there are manual side mirrors and manual wind down windows. The radio is still the original with FM/am and a tape deck. The speakers still work, which is amazing after 16 years. There is air conditioning and heat. A key opens the passenger and driver’s side door. It also works for the trunk. This car is an older vehicle and does not use a key fob. Turning the steering wheel to the right will lock it once in a parked position.

None have had no issues just regular maintenance oil changes, tires, wipers, etc. Just a dependable, reliable car with good gas mileage, =. There is nothing else to say except I would recommend this Toyota model to anyone. Good value, insurance, maintenance.

Always starts, gets great gas mileage, only cost me(used) $2000 and had never required anything except new tires and oil changes. I love. My Corolla and will happily put some money into this fall so it can pass inspection and run for at least another three years.

My Toyota is the best. It is great on gas easy to get fix. I once took my car to Vegas and back just on $25 dollars tank of gas. I have had this car since 2012 only had to get major work done on it once. It's a great reliable car. The only problem I had with this car is that there is not enough room for my family of five, it is manageable for a short trip up the street but not good for a long haul trip. I do love the color of my car when I get it detail it looks so pretty and clean. But for the most part I haven't had any problems with engine. I keep the maintenance up on my Toyota cause from what I heard these types of car can last forever if you just keep with maintenance.
