Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: This is not a safety issue. i have examined dozens of white 1994 corollas identical to mine: they all have major paint defects on both sides of their front hoods. i am a physicist. there is no doubt that this is a factory defect. (my corolla was made in canada.) it affects all cars made in the same year at the same plant. toyota refuses to acknowledge this defect as their fault. the fault does not show up until _after_ warranties have run out - so i cannot be reported under the warranty. *ak
