Some vehicles are equipped with safety features such as as a "rollover
switch" usually triggered at a specific degree of angle. I'm not sure if
the Corolla has such a device, but if it does, there usually is a
procedure to reset it or in some systems design require replacement
before allowing the vehicle to operate. Some other devices on some
vehicles will not allow starting if an air bag deployment has occurred.
Ask Ray O if the Corolla has such a system. He would know, check the
manual (it might mention it), or the Toyota dealer would know for sure.
