2002 TOYOTA COROLLA Suspension Problems

I WAS IN THE "SLOW " LANE ON THE INTERSTATE HEADED TO SCHOOL. I RECEIVED A SPEEDING TICKET THE DAY BEFORE SO I MADE SURE TO ON BE IN SLOW LANE GOING SPEED LIMIT. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME A RED CADILIAC BRAKE AND KIND OF HARD SO I BRAKE TRAVELING AT 60 TO 65 MPH. I BRAKE QUICK NOT REAL HARD AND WITH IN SECONDS I REALIZED THE CAR WAS LOOSING CONTROL. I QUICKLY JUMPED INTO THE PASSENGER SEAT AS SOON AS I REALIZED IT WAS IN GODS HANDS. I THEN DID A 360 AND A 180 ACROSS ALL THREE LANES NEVER HITTING ANOTHER CAR OR TRUCK HIT THE CENTER OF THE INTERSTATE AND ROLLED THREE TIMES. I KNOW THAT THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE THE WOMEN TRAVELING BEHIND ME SAID SHE HAD TO STOP BC SHE DIDN'T KNOW HOW I WAS ALIVE. I TOLD THEM THAT I...

WHILE DRIVING ON BUMPY ROADS I WOULD HEAR A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM UNDER THE CAR. I ASKED A MECHANIC WHAT IT WAS AND HE SAID IT WAS THE STRUTS. THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE, 2002 TOYOTA COROLLA FOR THAT VERY THING. ONE DEALER SAID HE WOULDN'T FIX IT. *TR

SQUEALING NOISE STARTED. THEY COULD NOT FIND THE NOISE. AS IT GOT LOUDER THEY "DRESSED THE BELTS" AT 35,426 MILES. THE PROBLEM PERSISTED, AND NOW THE STABILIZER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT THE PART BEING DEFECTIVE, I WAS TOLD THE PARTS ORIGINAL NUMBER HAS CHANGED AND A NEW ONE IS NOW USED. DOES THIS MEAN THAT THE FIRST ONE WAS DEFECTED AND THEY HAD TO MAKE A NEW ONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM? IT IS NORMAL FOR THE PART TO GIVE BE BAD SO SOON. SINCE THE PROBLEM STARTED EARLIER? *JB

CONSUMER STATES THAT SUSPENSION IS DEFECTIVE. VEHICLE PULLS TO THE RIGHT WHILE DRIVING SERIOUSLY AFFECTING ABILITY TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. CONSUMER HAD SAME PROBLEM WITH A 99 COROLLA WHICH MANUFACTURER HAD TO BUY BACK. TS

RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAD A BULGE ON OUTSIDE. *AK NEW VEHICLE WAS OUT OF ALIGNMENT, ALL 4 WHEELS WERE BENT AND WARPED FROM THE FACTORY, THE TIRES WERE OUT OF BALANCE. GOODYEAR INTEGRITY TIRES ON VEHICLE WERE DEFECTIVE AND WERE REPLACED DUE TO DEFECTIVE BELTS. VEHICLE HAS A HANDLING PROBLEM. NLM
