general problems of the 2007 Toyota Corolla

Goodyear integrity tires have little or no traction in wet conditions causing a loss of vehicle control.

My daughter was driving from houston to austin on us 290. Just west of paige, TX. She experienced some vibration that she attributed to construction but before she could slow down she experienced a sudden blowout of the front left tire while driving approximately 70 mph. The temperature was in the low 70's and the road was dry. Tires were last pressure checked two weeks ago and all filled to 30 psi as they had deflated to 25 to 27 psi since the last check. Extensive damage was done to the fender and wheel well liner and additional damage was done to th front bumper, and hood. The side air dam was completely torn off.

I drive a 2007 Toyota Corolla and purchased my tires from America's tire (discount tire) in 2009. Strangely, there are three different dot numbers for these four tires (two of the four have the same number). The numbers are as follows: cc9n 81p4509, 81p3109, and 81p2809. These yokohama avid touring tires are developing discoloration and concentric cracking around the outer and inner side walls. The cracking appears to be similar to dry rot. This seems to have occurred at 45,000 miles of wear. These tires are rated to last 65,000 miles. This premature failure is both disappointing and dangerous. The cracks are deep and I fear tread separation or blowout. I will be getting these tires replaced to avoid any possible injuries or accidents. I have rotated my tires frequently and the tread has otherwise worn evenly with only minimal tread wear. This failure is not a result of any mistreatment, neglect or bad driving habits.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Corolla which was purchased brand new. The vehicle has goodyear integrity tires, 195/65/r15, which were the original tires. She stated that whenever she would travel on wet road conditions the vehicle would slide and the brakes would not respond. On one occasion, while exiting a highway ramp at speeds of less than 15 mph during inclement weather, the vehicle began to slide around the exit ramp. She attempted to control the vehicle, to no avail. She then proceeded to do a complete 360 degree turn and crashed into a concrete wall. There were no injuries. There was moderate damage on the front-end of the vehicle and she was able to drive the vehicle from the scene to the dealer. She was awaiting a damage estimate from the dealer. No repairs were made to date. The failure and current mileages were under 23,000. Updated 4/7/2010 updated 06/01/10.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Corolla. The vehicle has bridgestone tires. When the contact turned the steering column to the right, the front and rear driver's side tires spontaneously blew out. The vehicle crashed, but there were no injuries. The cause of the failure is currently being investigated. The contact has pictures of the failed incident. The dot number, tire line, and tire size were unknown. The failure and current mileages were 9,000.

I had four 2 year old goodyear integrity tires on my Toyota Corolla 09. They have never had what has felt like proper tread/traction in rain let alone snow. I ended up hydroplaining and hit a tree, and now my caris a potential total. They have only normal wear and tear when my cra had a 15k mile checkup, but they have not held in the rain before and I have fishtailed while going straight on all sorts of wet pavement, and even didn't feel like they held so well on dry roads. Now I have a ruined car from a rainy day while driving forward, trying to steer away from excess water forming, but I was far from in full water, only the two right side tires, when I tried to move I immediately began to hydroplane and crashed. I have never been more scared and horrified. I want to know if these tires which came with my cra which was bought new, have had a previous history of problem as I've never seen them on other models of Toyotas of the same year, make and model, an 07 ce Corolla. I could have lost my life due to their failure to have adequate traction as they are all weather. If anyone could let me know if this is an issue, or other complaints have been filed I need to know.

I would like to make a formal complaint about my 2007 Toyota Corolla. I purchased my car in January 2007. I'm having problems with my vehicle. The is a vibration I feel coming from the steering wheel. My car stopped on the li expressway due to 2 sensors that no longer worked. There is a shaking in my tires & every time I turn my car on there is a loud noise coming from the engine.
