I do, but I just got the car, so I can't tell. Ask me again in a few months!

I have:

Yaris LB 3 dr, MT
year 2007,
absolutely red,
almost 56K

No problem so far. A few really small dents in the paint, hardly noticeable except real close.

Only problem I've had in over two years is when I drove over a screw of some type and got a slow leak in my tire!

if you have the auto iit wont shift until the engine warms up or you go over 35mph... its to ensure the engine warms up properly

2008 Sedan Base
Black Sand Pearl

5,000 mi
No problems - not even one

Lowest mileage - 1st tank, 38 mpg
Highest mileage - 44 mpg / mixed driving
Average mileage - 42 mpg / mixed driving

I've taken it on several 200+ mile highway trips, but since it is loaded with family and luggage, I have always gotten the same 41 - 43 mpg I get when driving back and forth to work by myself. Would love to get it on a really long stretch of interstate and run the tank to see what it can really do on the highway.

Squeeky shifter, going into first and second gear, the dealer sprayed lube on the pivot under the hood, where you would put your short shifter. Every once in a while when a passenger closes that door my door mirror comes in. Thats it.

No problems except the tires are showing alot of wear for 20K but from other post that seems common.

Other than that the car is great. It hauls a 4yo and an 8yo boy in the back so it must be tough !

The Yaris is clearly a trouble free car.

The tire issues of course can't be blamed on Toyota and is not a Yaris problem and we can't really expect the Yaris to come with expensive long lasting Michelins.

Seems like nothing goes wrong with these cars. One of the great benefits of a simple car.

Finally someone with more miles than me. A lot more. That's a lot of driving!

Do you use it for work?
