 Description of the problemI purchased a 2002 toyota corolla and found that my nasal passages burned, my mouth had a bitter chemical taste and i felt spacy when i drove the car for more than 15 minutes. I developed a headache and my lungs burned if i was in the car for 45 minutes or more. The longer i was in the car the longer it took to get rid of this toxic chemical feel in my respitory system. The dealer was willing to trade me out of this "toxic" car into a new one but even though i eagerly tried a new corolla, echo, and matrix, the new cars were even worse. I have owned brand new toyotas twice before and have driven this make for 20 years. The one i traded was purchased in 1992. Much to my shock and disbelief, the chemical offgassing inside models as old as 2000's has made it impossible for me to buy a new or even relatively new toyota. I have recently ridden in a new dodge caravan and a new volkswagan, golf without a problem.
