5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
Complaints filed for the 2025 Corolla are relatively thin at 23 total, so patterns are limited. Brakes draw the most attention across the service brake categories, with owners describing situations where the pedal produced little or no deceleration, one account involves a vehicle failing to slow while exiting a highway, and another describes what felt like the car actively braking on its own without driver input. A small number of reports mention lane departure and driver assistance behavior, including unexpected system interventions at highway speeds. A couple of isolated reports describe steering lock and automatic emergency braking that would not disengage, though these appear in single accounts rather than a recurring pattern. One owner also describes an unusual front-end dip and squealing sound when pulling away from a stop.
