ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AFTER REACHING 94,000 MILES MARK LIKE WHAT SOME OTHER TOYOTA MATRIX OWNERS EXPERIENCED, THERE WAS A HARSH IN THE TRANSMISSION WHEN YOU SHIFT TO REVERSE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. *TR
2009
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
POWER STEERING MALFUNCTION OCCURRED AND WARNING LIGHT (ON THE DASHBOARD) WAS ON. STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HARD TO TURN. LUCKILY THIS HAPPENED ON THE PARKING LOT, AND NOT ON MY WAY BACK HOME (TRIP ON THE HIGHWAY) WHICH FOR SURE WOULD RESULTED IN CAR ACCIDENT WITH SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES. I HAVE CONTACT TOYOTA HOWEVER AT THIS POINT THEY ARE NOT CONCERNED IN THIS MATTER AS SAFETY ISSUE AND WILL NOT COVER ANY EXPENSES FOR SUCH REPAIR (POWER STEERING ELECTRICAL UNIT/ RELAY WAS REPLACED_PARTS~ 900$ AND LABOR ~500$). *TR
