The 2010 Toyota Corolla S is easy to maintain. Many of the tail lights are located behind a single panel in the trunk door or a single portion of trunk lining—both of which remove easily and allow for reliable bulb changes. Monitoring the transmission fluid levels won’t be a problem, as its dipstick is easy to find right in front of the engine. Changing the engine air filter is easy to do as the housing disengages without the use of any tools.
However, the 2010 Toyota Corolla S has its downsides. The parking lights and turn signal will require the wheel well lining to be removed for access, which won’t allow for reliable changes. Accessing the fog light may be a problem given the panel under the vehicle that’ll need to be removed first. The glove box must be removed before the cabin air filter can be changed.
