toyota logo

The Toyota Corolla (Japanese: トヨタ・カローラ, Hepburn: Toyota Karōra) is a series of compact cars (formerly subcompact) manufactured and marketed globally by the Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation. Introduced in 1966, the Corolla was the best-selling car worldwide by 1974 and has been one of the best-selling cars in the world since then. In 1997, the Corolla became the best-selling nameplate in the world, surpassing the Volkswagen Beetle. Toyota reached the milestone of 50 million Corollas sold over twelve generations in 2021.

The name Corolla is part of Toyota's naming tradition of using names derived from the Toyota Crown for sedans, with "corolla" Latin for "small crown". The Corolla has always been exclusive in Japan to Toyota Corolla Store locations, and manufactured in Japan with a twin, called the Toyota Sprinter until 2000. From 2006 to 2018 in Japan and much of the world, and from 2018 to 2020 in Taiwan, the hatchback companion had been called the Toyota Auris.

Early models were mostly rear-wheel drive, while later models have been front-wheel drive. Four-wheel drive versions have also been produced, and it has undergone several major redesigns. The Corolla's traditional competitors have been the Nissan Sunny, introduced the same year as the Corolla in Japan and the later Nissan Sentra, Nissan Sylphy, Honda Civic and Mitsubishi Lancer. The Corolla's chassis designation code is "E", as described in Toyota's chassis and engine codes.

Common 2014 Toyota Corolla problems

The Toyota Corolla is known for its reliability, but like any car, it has some common problems. Based on owner complaints, the 2014 Toyota Corolla has several issues that may affect its performance and safety.

One of the most common problems with the 2014 Toyota Corolla is the check engine light. This issue can be caused by various factors, such as the EVAP system, fuel filler neck, or mass airflow sensor. The check engine light can come on for no reason, indicating a problem with the PCM software. In some cases, the check engine light may show up due to a P0455 code, which indicates that the tank filler neck is not positioned properly. This problem can be resolved by repositioning the fuel filler neck to its proper working order. Another possible cause of the check engine light is a bad mass airflow sensor, which can cause the code P0171. This problem can be solved by cleaning the mass airflow sensor or replacing it with a new one if cleaning doesn't work.

Another issue with the 2014 Toyota Corolla is the starter motor. The starter motor can stop working, making it difficult to start and drive off with the car. A new starter motor can cost between $400 and $550 to be installed, and it can be challenging to diagnose due to its similar symptoms with a dead battery.

The 2014 Toyota Corolla also has some problems with the engine. Some owners have reported excessive oil consumption, which can lead to engine damage if ignored. This problem is more common in higher mileage vehicles, and it can be resolved by regularly checking the oil level and refilling it when necessary.

The 2014 Toyota Corolla's transmission can also be problematic. Some owners have reported transmission failure, which can be costly to repair. The average cost to fix transmission failure in a 2003 Corolla is $1,200, and it can occur at around 65,000 miles.

Finally, the 2014 Toyota Corolla's engine mounts can also be an issue. The engine and transmission mounts can wear out, causing the engine and transmission to move around, which can lead to vibrations and noise. Replacing the engine and transmission mounts can cost between $380 and $510.

In conclusion, while the 2014 Toyota Corolla is a reliable car, it has some common problems that owners should be aware of. These issues include check engine light problems, starter motor failure, excessive oil consumption, transmission failure, and engine and transmission mount problems. Regular maintenance and inspections can help prevent these issues and ensure the car's safety and longevity.

  • Date Of Incident: 2022-11-30
  • VIN: 2T1BURHE8EC
  • Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
  • Summary: On 11/30/2022 The CHECK light came on. After checking my Toyota manual it showed several reasons for the light. I called the Toyota Dealer (Bryan Easler, Hendersonville, NC) made an appointment for general service and inspection as to why the warning light came on. Was told the warning light was result of rodents chewing through the gas line causing fuel leak. This also happened about three years ago. Because the fuel system is all one piece it couldn't be repaired. I had to pay for a whole new fuel line system, second time I have had to pay for a whole new fuel system. There is no Toyota dealer my my area so I have to travel about forty miles for service. I am a very elderly half cripple woman long distance driving is tiring and dangerous for me, driving with a leaking gas line is dangerous for anyone. This is the second time I've dealt with this problem. There is something seriously wrong with a fuel line being exposed so animals can chew through it. It means I may have to replace it every time a rodent decides to dine on the fuel line. Where can I park and feel safe my gas line won't be destroyed? Not to mention all the other dangers a leaking fuel line can cause. It makes no sense why Toyota would manufacture such a disaster on any car.

  • VIN: 2T1BURHEXEC
  • Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
  • Summary: The touch screen in the bottom right corner is not responsive. Original owner said it gave out just before I purchased from them. The main safety concern is now I am unable to use hands free calling which is the main functionality you need with a Bluetooth set up. From what I can see this is a large problem across online forums with this particular model and dealerships will not replace for less than $1000+ and I feel hands free calling should be a safety priority for Toyota enough to replace the screen.

Negative 2014 Toyota Corolla car reviews

  1. Coby Bradtke 2024-10-25

    I have been a Toyota owner for the last five years and my family has owned multiple Toyota cars in the past. We decided to purchase a Toyota vehicle due to our positive experiences with the brand. However, since owning my Toyota Corolla, which was bought brand new, I have experienced multiple issues with the vehicle. These include the temperature gauge going bad two years after purchasing the vehicle, the driver's window getting stuck in the down position, and the vehicle shaking vigorously at around 40,000 miles and then again at 78,000 miles, which was concerning as my young children were present during both incidents. Despite getting the vehicle serviced and maintained on time from a Toyota authorized service dealership, I have been completely unsatisfied with the level of care and commitment Toyota has provided. As a company that prides itself on innovation, quality, and reliability, Toyota has failed to comply with their own standards and level of concern. I registered a complaint with the Toyota Customer Experience Center, but unfortunately, they disregarded my complaint and faulted me for the vehicle's condition. The executives I dealt with repeatedly stated that the engine failing is not Toyota's problem, even though I can prove that my maintenance was done on a timely basis. The customer care team members were unhelpful and rude, with no sense of professionalism or mannerism. I have incurred an $8,000.00 expense due to Toyota's faults and oversight. I am disappointed to learn that Toyota knew about such faulty engines and issues but chose not to take any action to fix such vehicles, given the fact they claim they have the most reliable cars. I hope Toyota will take responsibility for their actions and value their vehicles and customers. I will think twice before going back to a Toyota and cannot recommend anyone to purchase a vehicle from Toyota until they are able to accept responsibility and improve their customer service.

  2. Rudolph Marvin 2024-09-19

    I chose the Corolla over the 2014 Mazda 3. I've put about 600 miles on mine so far. While the Mazda is a great car in many ways - better handling, more power, better fuel economy, and better build quality - I'm still happy with my decision. The Corolla has more interior space, better visibility, and better features for less money, even when compared to a comparably equipped Mazda. The noise levels are similar to the Mazda, but could be better (although not as good as the Chevy Cruze). The handling is much improved over previous Toyotas I've driven, and the seats are supportive and comfortable. Overall, I find this to be an easy, economical car to live with and I'm really enjoying it.

  3. Liam Murazik 2024-08-21

    At 75K miles, I had to replace the charcoal canister, and unfortunately, the air conditioner is giving me some trouble. However, overall, it's still a good car!

  4. Samson Mante 2024-07-08

    *Starting the car: To get the car going, make sure to push the clutch all the way to the ground and hold the button in long enough. My fiancé's car is a 6-speed with a push start and I've never had any trouble with it. I've been driving stick shift for over 15 years, but this clutch is very picky. After spending a lot of time stranded in my car, I've realized that I need to ride the clutch to get it going without stalling. Unfortunately, this makes me nervous and I feel unsafe while driving. My fiancé also refuses to drive my car for this reason.*Where is the soundproofing?? When driving in the rain/snow...

  5. Esteban Trantow 2024-06-16

    After owning this car for 2 years, I decided to part ways with it. Unfortunately, my experience with Toyota was not a positive one. I had purchased a navigation system for around $1,400, which I needed on a daily basis, but it turned out to be useless. I ended up using my $70 Garmin instead. When I brought this to Toyota's attention, they simply responded that 'the system is designed like that.' The map installed in the system was over 15 years old in some areas, and when I inquired about a map update, the dealer informed me that it was not covered under warranty and that I would have to pay for it. It seems that Toyota's standard response to any issues with their products is to say that 'all the other vehicles do the same.' I purchased this car to save money on gas, but unfortunately, it depreciated about $7,000 in just 2 years. For that amount of money, I could have bought a lot of gas and kept driving my Chrysler van, which never had any GPS issues.

Positive 2014 Toyota Corolla car reviews

  1. Camryn Okuneva 2025-01-09

    I recently traded in my Chevrolet Sonic for this car, which my fiance and I share. I have the 'no regrets' model with the Entune system, navigation, moonroof, and keyless ignition. I've only had it for a few weeks, but I can already say that I really like it. What initially drew me to this car was the incredible number of features it offers for the price. I also wanted a car with a CVT, and this one fit the bill perfectly. The fit and finish are excellent and exceeded my expectations for the price point. The interior is comfortable, spacious, and attractive. Both my fiance and I enjoy driving it very much. Additionally, it looks great, especially in slate gray, which is not something I thought I'd ever say about a Corolla.

  2. Camron Jast 2025-01-08

    When I was in the market for a car, I test drove a Hyundai Elantra and a Mazda 3, both priced at $21,500. However, after careful consideration, I decided to purchase the 2014 Corolla. In my opinion, it has the best quality, features, and styling. The dashboard design is reminiscent of a 1972 Chevelle, which I find charming. The Bluetooth and backup camera are very convenient, and the sport seats are incredibly comfortable with plenty of adjustments. The large sunroof is a great feature, and the S model wheels are simply awesome! The CVT transmission is perfect for highway driving, although it can feel a bit strange when accelerating on hills in the city. The sport mode is a lot of fun, with shift points that make it feel quite fast. While I don't think I'll use the paddle shifters much, they're a nice touch. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of the Corolla.

    I hope you're doing well! I noticed that you were looking for a commuter car to drive almost 100 miles a day back and forth to work. I think I might have found the perfect car for you! I have been driving a Corolla for about 1,500 miles now and I really like it. The rear leg room is great and I have been averaging 34 MPG. I really like the exterior styling of the car and the interior looks like it belongs in a much more expensive car. I opted for the S Plus as it adds a lot of features for very little money. This is a great commuter car that is comfortable, looks nice, drives nice and gets great MPG. I highly recommend it!

    What a lovely car! I really like the redesign both inside and out. Although it's not as peppy as my 2006 S, I planned on driving it for another 5 years since it was so dependable. Unfortunately, it got totaled and I had to get a new car. I chose the S Plus because of the disc brakes all the way around and purchased it with the convenience package. I'm really enjoying the XM and Bluetooth features that I didn't have before. However, I am a bit disappointed with the gas mileage. My 2006 car consistently got 33 MPG, while this one barely gets 29 MPG. They advertise it as 35 MPG, which is not true. Nonetheless, it's still a great car. As for reliability, only time will tell. By the way, I've put 5,000 miles on it so far and I still can't get rid of the epoxy smells when I accelerate. It seems to come through the vents.

    Congratulations on your first car with CVT automatic transmission! It may take some time to get used to, but once you do, it will provide a smooth and comfortable ride. While it may be slow on start-up and acceleration, it is a reliable and well-made car that will get you from point A to point B without any troubles. The interior is comfortable and we love the standard Bluetooth and cruise control features. If you live in a cold climate, a remote starter is a great addition to save you the hassle of starting your car in the cold. However, it is important to note that the installation process for the module F can be a bit of a drawback. The fuel consumption is okay, but an upgrade to an 8-speed automatic transmission would be a great improvement. Overall, with good maintenance, this car will serve you well. Just make sure to take care of the wipers and fluids, and invest in winter tires for a safer drive. It's great that you service your car with a dealership and are happy with it. Keep up the good work!
