2007, just over 57k miles.

Other than having the rack & pinion replaced at 40k and the clear coat on the bumpers re-sprayed, it's been smooth sailing.

Well at 57k it's barely broken in ;) Did you drive over a curb or why did the r&p have to be replaced?

The car was involved in a minor fender bender early on when a friend didn't realize I was parked behind her and backed into me. It was a low to no speed impact and I had everything inspected/repaired professionally, so not sure that caused it, but don't know what else might have. Maybe just a factory dud? I opted for the extended warranty, so luckily it only cost me the $50 deductible to have it all replaced by the stealership.

2007 yaris rs 5 door 225,000 km, no major problems, I had an ABS light come on 2 years ago during the spring. Cleaned the connector and it went away.
put on a tooter intake manifold and a 1zz throttle body about 20,00km ago, only issue there is if I don't let the car warm up sufficiently the throttle body gives an over current CEL and limits the rpm to 2000, and that only happens when its below -25. this car has been dead reliable and couldn't be happier with it.

2006 Hatchback, 5 door, 1KR-FE engine.
100,000 miles.

Water pump went bad at 65,000 miles. Made a lot of noise.
Alternator failed at 88,000 miles. Faulty voltage regulator. Drove it around for weeks.

Other than that. A few tyres, brake pads, a battery and an exhaust a bulb or two and servicing. I really can't complain. I drive it like i stole it and it takes me all over the country.

2004 Toyota Yaris 5door Hatchback 1.0 (65hp)

150,000 km (94000 miles)

Some electrical problems like the dome light won't turn on, front windshield wiper liquid pump isn't getting electricity. The headlights turned ugly yellow so I changed them, The little engine that could is purring like it's still brand new.

2009 3door HB 121000km.............Front brakes when I bought in at 78000km in Jan. 2014. Other the tuning and moding I haven't had a single issue or part to remove, even the battery is the original. Car doesn't come out winters so this year it's getting TLC over the winter months. Front wheel bearings, water pump, replace the battery...

2015 Manual 5-spd SE, manufactured late 2014 France, purchased late July 2015 Colorado, USA. Currently has a bit over 11k miles on it. Only problem(s) thus far:

- Little plastic fins under front bumper, in front of each wheel installed incorrectly @ factory - dealership corrected under warranty.

- Annoying rattle/buzz in drivers-side side air vent on choppy roads or bumps - dealership corrected under warranty.

So far, that's it. Fingers crossed.

Yaris 2010 AT

60k

The current problem I'm facing is if it idles in drive and AC on the rpm drops to 500 some times below end up causing a vibration (twice the engine shutdown)

Overall this car is awesome. But can any body help with this problem?

A little over 66k miles in my '07 lift-back and I just had to replace the alternator. Mechanic said it was barely making enough power to run the car. Nine years old and all I've had to replace is the water pump, driver's side axle seal and now the alternator.

Best $12,500 I've ever spent lol!
