CarComplaints.com Notes: There must have been something in the water at the plant where they built the eighth generation Corollas, especially the 1998 and 1999 model years.
Outside of a few engine related issues for the 1999, these are about as dependable a car as you’ll find. And remember most of these cars have 200k miles on them by now. But good luck finding one; owners say they want a new car, but can’t justify trading in their Corolla because the darn thing just keeps rolling.

(1) noticeable strong vibration in steering wheel when car approaches speed of 65-70 mph. Vibration becomes stronger with increasing speed. The problem was noticed after car had been service at Toyota dealer (armstrong Toyota). (2) car becomes unstable and difficult to control (3) returned to same dealer.
