CV Axle Assembly for the 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla

What 2019–2025 Corolla owners report about the power train

Owners have filed 3 complaints with NHTSA, the US federal vehicle-safety regulator, that mention a CV joint or drive axle on the 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla, and 145 filed under its power train. Those 3, by model year, as of September 18, 2026:

• 2019 Corolla: 1 complaint
• 2020 Corolla: 1 complaint
• 2021 Corolla: none
• 2022 Corolla: none
• 2023 Corolla: 1 complaint
• 2024 Corolla: none
• 2025 Corolla: none

NHTSA publishes complaints as owners wrote them and does not verify them, so read them as a pattern rather than a diagnosis.

A 2020 Corolla owner, NHTSA complaint 11764378: "The CV joint, there is a clicking sound when sharp turns are make to include U-turns. Spoke with a mechanic and was instructed to reach out to the dealership and check for recall on it."

A 2023 Corolla owner, NHTSA complaint 11719548: "I have a Hybrid version of the 2023 Corolla in the SE trim. Everytime the car is cold (engine just started), and I'm pressing the brake, I can hear some clicking noises similar to a CV Axle noise when they are bad. That braking noise goes away as the car heat up."

Recalls that cover the CV axle on the 2019–2025 Corolla

As of September 18, 2026, NHTSA lists no recall on the 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla whose defect is in the CV axle. If your car has a warning light or a symptom that a recall could explain, check the VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls anyway — it takes a minute.

Which CV axle a 2019–2025 Corolla takes

Axles differ by transmission, by drivetrain, and between the left and right side, which are rarely the same length. The 2019–2025 Toyota Corolla came with several powertrains, among them 1.8L I4 CVT FWD and 2.0L I4 CVT FWD. That is why we ask for the VIN, or the year, engine and trim, and confirm the part against it before you pay rather than after it arrives.
