duality:Yes, you are right, their specifications and standards are different from other countries same with Samsung galaxy phones made in South Korea. May be because of how rigid their roads are. |

Any car that comes from SA is probably a converted car from right hand drive to left, thereby causing some minor or major wiring problems, however if you find a good and patience mechanic to convert it you might not have a problem But at the long run, you will encounter one problem or the other, however i want to believe that your own case is caused by some wiring that bridged each other and since the battery is connected it would cause a spark. I guess that’s what happened to your car.. 3 Likes 1 Share |

thecommunist: With this, the alarm system wont work right? I guess the switch is to disconnect the battery. |

/ Contrary to popular opinion, newer is not always better. It is better to buy used and trusted gadgets. Boeing and the masses found that out too late in Air Max 737. Each brand of car usually has a particular model and year that is of poor build. Do you see the guys buying the latest Range Rovers? Only Jesus can console them. / 5 Likes |

bdek: The side where the ABS is located caught fire from the picture. In SA model, the ABS is located somewhere under the brake master cylinder, left side of the servo. The defect is around the inner electronic components of the ABS, mine of same model almost caught fire last year, I had to replace the ABS with the American model. I was lucky it occurred during the day time when people were around. My wife parked the car around 2pm and went into the house, thereafter between 5 to 6pm, neighbors called her attention to the smoking car, when she arrived with the key, smoke truely had covered the car, she was so confused, a neighbor around removed one of the battery terminals after she managed to open the bonet and that saved the car from getting burnt. I recalled a mechanic warned me about this issue with the SA spec but i thought it wasn't true as it actually didn't make sense to me then until it happened to my car. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

"My mechanic told me that that particular version (2012-13, South Africa) of Toyota Corolla had a flawed breaking system design, which caused it to catch fire by itself, even if the car was off for a long time." Kill your Mechanic!!! Your car got burnt due to your negligence! If you want to show all in the house that am wrong, Post the last screenshot of your last service |

tiamiyukunle69: You didnt state how long you have been driving the supposed car. And neglecting informations`s you put up here, can you state when last car was serviced, including brake systems and detailed receipts of spare part change. From there, we can always arrive at a conclusion. Dont let Kazeem and Paul mislead you! |

intruder15: I thought you must have have checked reviewed before diving into conclusion. This same stated car does not have a generalized issue of burning. South Africa is specifically known for RHD, and have tried to imagine that they do same for LHD. Why is this becoming a subject matter amongs very few in over a million unit sold. If Op claims its the break system, he should post pictures of his last car servicng with pictures of receipts of every replaceable unit of his brake system. The unfounded attribution and cause of his car burning is baseless and unfounded. He needs to confidentially relate. Kazzem told him the fact he is trying hard to buttress on a forum filled up with enlightened people. That is a 2010-2015 car we talking about! The world has moved past it and no review has proved that car to be flammable due to braking system. Same Kazeem that told him its the ABS knows whats actaully wrong as its glaring those are the quack experts that have been working on the car. |

JAWBONE: How and where did he purchase the car? Did he buy it brandnew or registered cos I know it can’t be as Tokunbo. The SA version only comes into Nigeria as brandnew from major distributors. 1 Like |
