2014 Toyota Yaris Tire Information

Apart from finding the right tire size, there are a couple of other factors to consider when buying Toyota Yaris tires like how and where you drive, and how much you want to spend. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Drivers in states that fully experience all four seasons often buy two sets of tires: one set for winter, one set for summer. Other drivers prefer the convenience of all-season tires. They make one trip to the tire shop and they're pretty much ready for rain, light snow, or sun!

Your personal driving style is the next factor to consider. If you're a diehard off-roader, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't leave the paved path. Talk to a tire technician at Firestone Complete Auto Care for help choosing the best tire for you, or start shopping for Toyota Yaris tires online.

  • Can I check the tread depth on my Toyota tires at home? Stay on top of your tire tread depth to help avoid a dangerous drive. You can check tread depth with a penny. Hold the penny so that Abraham Lincoln is facing you, then place your penny into a tread groove upside down. If you can see the top of Abe’s head, your tread is shallow and it might be time for new Toyota Yaris tires. Grab a penny.

  • What do I do if I see a pool of liquid under my Toyota Yaris? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Toyota Yaris. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • How frequently do the fuel injectors in my Toyota Yaris need to be cleaned? Factors like fuel type and driving conditions can affect how frequently you need to clean your Yaris fuel injectors. Some manufacturers recommend a fuel system cleaning as part of routine maintenance, or as needed if your vehicle is showing signs of poor fuel system performance.

2014 Yaris Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

During the first few years you had your 2014 Toyota Yaris, you and your passengers probably enjoyed a ride that was smooth and balanced. But these days, things are starting to feel a bit rough. Maybe your Yaris jolts, drifts to one side, or makes noise whenever you turn or drive over a speed bump. The first sign of trouble is the best time to bring your 2014 Toyota Yaris in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the root of the issue and, if your car needs steering and suspension repairs, we’ll go over the services you need and how much they will cost before we do any work.

2014 Yaris Steering & Suspension Q&A

  • What can cause my Toyota Yaris to have a bouncy ride?  If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Yaris to bounce more than usual.
  • What can cause the front end of my Yaris to dip forward when I apply the brakes?  When you brake, the forward momentum combined with your vehicle's weight sends a lot of force to the vehicle's front end. A bad suspension can cause all that weight and force to push the front end downward.
  • Does treadwear and tire pressure impact my Yaris's steering and suspension?  Maintaining your tires can help reduce strain on the suspension, nd also let you know when it's time to replace your tires. A faltering steering and suspension system could lead to uneven tire wear.

Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your 2014 Toyota Yaris A/C problems.

This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test.

The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant.

Frequently Asked Questions for 2014 Toyota Yaris A/C Systems

  • Why do I get hot air from my Yaris A/C? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • What can cause an A/C system leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your Yaris’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • What is causing my Yaris’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Yaris may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.

Questions About 2014 Toyota Yaris’s Transmission

  • How often does my Yaris transmission fluid need to be checked?  Regularly checking and exchanging your 2014 Yaris’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Toyota's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Toyota Yaris transmission fluid leak?  Yes. Toyota Yaris transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
  • Is it okay to drive a Yaris with a transmission fluid leak?  Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.

Once it’s safe to do so, bring your car to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to have the coolant system inspected.
