What Owners Say
"The trim is not attached and when it rain the car gets wet in the inside and smells like mildew"
Anonymous, CA (2007 Toyota Yaris Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"The Yaris I own is black. I live in Florida. The paint was clean and waxed one day, and the next, it completely blistered and peeled off my roof. My roof is now covered in rust."
Anonymous, FL (2007 Toyota Yaris Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"They seem to have used a cheap quality paint. It has faded and disintegrated in the sun where other make and model cars parked in the exact same conditions have not. When looking around at other Yaris's while driving, they often have the same fading paint/damage spots caused by sun damage as mine."
Anonymous, CA (2007 Toyota Yaris Unsure 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"Paint is very faded"
Anonymous, TX (2007 Toyota Yaris Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"I have the dark blue paint common in 2007, it has been pealing for the last 9 months. Another owner of the same type of Yaris left me a message to contact him, as he has the same problem, starts with round spots, that grow more numberous over time"
F C., CA (2007 Toyota Yaris Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"A shiny, clear coat is peeling off showing the base flat paint on the roof of the car. Also, the front hood has a lot of nicks"
Anonymous, VA (2007 Toyota Yaris Base 1.5-L 4 Cyl)"Large areas of paint loss (peeling off) on front bumper cover. Cosmetically ugly, but the surface underneath is plastic, so structurally it's not an issue"
