Clutch failure at early miles on multiple cars, there's even blogs about it. They don't want to cover, but it doesn't have the durability of a normal clutch.

NHTSA complaint 11755092. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

Both front tires on my 2023 Toyota GR Corolla have developed severe inner-edge wear down to the cords, while the rest of the tread remains in excellent condition. This occurred at approximately 14,000 miles. The wear pattern is symmetrical and isolated to the inner inch of both front tires, indicating that it is not the result of normal driving, impact, or neglect, but rather points to a factory alignment or suspension geometry defect. I discovered the issue during a routine inspection and immediately stopped driving the vehicle for safety reasons. Tire wear exposing the cords poses a high risk of sudden tire failure or loss of steering control, especially at highway speeds. This appears to …

The clutch in the '23 GR Corollas is not sufficient enough for the vehicle. Even Toyota knows this as they updated the clutch not only from 23 to 24 but also from 24 to 25. I have a little over 20k miles on mine, and the clutch is so far gone that the car is not driveable. I have heard of a large handful of clutch warranties and have confirmed 7 of them. I took my car to the dealer and they want me to approve ≈$1800 of service to determine if the clutch is warrantable, but advised that if the Toyota Rep decides its not covered, I'm on the hook for the labor. This has been a well documented complaint amongst forum posts and other social media groups with GR Corolla owners. If Toyota knows …

I am writing to file a complaint regarding my 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition. The issue pertains to the ECU programming, which was not properly calibrated for the wheels that came with this model. Instead, the weight and dimensions from the Morizo Edition were utilized. This discrepancy causes the vehicle to inaccurately register speed, which is a significant safety concern. The malfunctioning component is the ECU, and it is available for inspection upon request. The inaccurate speedometer readings put my safety and the safety of others at risk by potentially causing unintentional speeding, which could lead to traffic violations and increased risk of accidents. Additionally, the …

The clutch system on my car is prematurely failing. I understand that it is a wear and tear item. This is not my first manual transmission car. I have been driving vehicles with manual transmissions for over 20 years. The issue I am having now is not normal behavior for a for a brand new car, let alone for a performance oriented vehicle. I first noticed it when the car was brand new with a distinct clutch burning smell. It would come and go and the general community of owners with the same car said it was a normal occurrence. This is my first brand new car purchase so I thought nothing of it. I then noticed the problem get worse at 7k miles. The clutch was slipping in all gears just ever so …
