I drive a 2010 toyota corolla. There is something wrong with the antilock brake system; especially if i am trying to apply the brake to slow the car and am making a right turn(even slightly turning right). It's like the brakes lock up and the steering gets like a mac truck. This also happens when i go over a bump and/or pothole. It most recently even happened when i was driving down the highway and there was a…

I have a 2010 corolla 4 dr le model, which i bought in july 2009. I continue to notice that the car "wanders" on the road while driving; generally it is really noticeable about 50 mph. When there are windy conditions (frequent in kansas), i have to constantly correct my direction of travel since the wind exacerbates the wandering of the vehicle. I thought that it was due to the crown of the particular road, but it…

2010 toyota corolla -- steering problem. Very difficult to keep car within travel lane when driving at highway speed. This is not related to wind gusts but occurs at all the times. Feels like there are dead spots in the wheel and there is little to no road feel feedback. The car does not track straight on its own but requires constant steering corrections. I am 69 years old and have owned and driven many cars/trucks…
