What Owners Say
"The entire radio/gps screen froze and was replaced by Toyota at no cost to us"
Anonymous, CA (2014 Toyota Corolla S 1.8-L 4 Cyl)"When switching between channels, the display would freeze and remain on the current station. Sometimes the station would catch up to the selected and other times I would have to reset the radio by restarting the vehicle. Then all's good until the next time, which isn't all that often."
Michael B., CA (2014 Toyota Corolla S 1.8-L 4 Cyl)"I am unable to access the bottom of the screen. Therefore, I am unable to pair my new phone with the bluetooth system, and unable to scan the radio and other functions."
Jane L., TX (2014 Toyota Corolla LE 1.8-L 4 Cyl)"I bought the car in 2014. by 2016, from time to time, maybe a few times a month, it locks up. If I leave it alone, it will take a full minute to unfreeze. Sometimes it easier to do a hard reset (press and hold power button)."

B K., CA (2014 Toyota Corolla S 1.8-L 4 Cyl)"The infotainment display is used for Bluetooth phone pairing. Display calibration has drifted, making pairing a new phone impossible. The radio is also affected. It is apparently a known and common problem with this model, but Toyota refuses to take responsibility. From on-line sources, a new infotainment system would be needed at a cost of about $1,000. I am very unhappy with Toyota."
