WAS REAR ENDED BY A TRUCK THAT WAS GOING MORE THAN 40MPH ( I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP),AND PUSHED INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, AND AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. I HAD RECENTLY BEEN TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO GET A TRANSMISSION FLUSH, WHEN THE MECHANIC NOTIFIED ME THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS, AND HE INFORMED ME THAT HE FIXED THAT PROBLEM AS WELL. I ALSO HAVE A WORK ORDER THAT SHOWS THAT THE AIRBAGS WERE FIXED THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE BEEN DEPLOYED IN MY ACCIDENT.

THE FUEL LINE HAD APPARENT RODENT (POSSIBLE SQUIRREL) BITE MARKS.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY, SERVICE BRAKES
MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE DEALERSHIP OVER A TIMEFRAME OF A FEW YEARS THAT CONTINUES TO DETERIORATE. MOST RECENTLY, LACK OF DEALERSHIP NOTIFICATION OF SAFETY RECALL, DEALERSHIP INABILITY TO RESPOND TO SAFETY RECALL WHEN NOTIFIED FROM A 3RD PARTY SITE, DEALERSHIP VEHICULAR INSPECTION INCOMPLETE AND/OR INDICATIONS OF UNRESOLVED ISSUES, VIOLATION OF PERSONAL PROPERTY BUT DEALERSHIP EMPTYING CENTER CONSOLE CONTENTS INTO PASSENGER SEAT UNNECESSARILY (NO BUSINESS REASON TO DO SO), INSPECTION RESULTS OF MOST RECENT VISIT ENTAILED VIDEO INSPECTION OF RUST ACCUMULATION NEAR NOTATED BRAKE AREA WITH NO DIRECTION OR INSTRUCTION - BEYOND THE DRIVER NOTICING A DRIVING PROBLEM OF VIBRATION - TO WHICH THE INSTRUCTION WAS A DEALERSHIP PROCESS OF RUST BUILD UP REMOVAL BY A MACHINE (NO INTERNAL COMMUNICATION WITHIN DEALERSHIP OF ISSUE, NOTIFICATION TO DRIVER OR THOSE SERVING THE DRIVER TO SHARE ISSUE AND RECOMMENDATIONS, PROMPTING WAS THE RESULT OF DRIVER REQUESTING CLARIFICATION AT DEALERSHIP). THE SAFETY RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE CAME THROUGH CARFAX (NOT FROM THE DEALERSHIP OR DEALERSHIP MEANS - BUT AS A RESULT OF ATTEMPTING TO SELL THE VEHICLE). THE SAFETY RECALL INVOLVED AN ISSUE WITH THE SEAT BELT & AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, AND WHEN DRIVER CONTACTED LOCAL DEALERSHIP MONTHS AGO- DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THERE WAS NO REMEDY, AND WAS NOT NOTIFIED WHEN ONE BECAME AVAILABLE. THE MOST RECENT OIL CHANGE VISIT "CLAIMS" TO HAVE ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM, AT THE REQUEST OF DRIVER. THIS INCIDENT REQUEST IS THREE-FOLD: (1) ADDRESS SAFETY RECALL COMMUNICATION AND PROCESS WITH DEALERSHIP; (2) ADDRESS VEHICULAR MAINTENANCE, OIL CHANGE, SERVICE, AND INSPECTION PROCESS AND INTERACTION WITH DRIVERS; AND (3) RECOMMEND TO ME (THE PERSON COMPLETING THIS COMPLAINT) A SPECIFIC MOTOR VEHICLE LOCATION (INCLUDING COMPANY NAME, MANAGEMENT, AND MECHANIC) WHERE THE VEHICLE CAN BE ADEQUATELY ASSESSED FOR SAFE DRIVING. *TR

POWER TRAIN
I GOT A RECALL ABOUT MY TRANSMISSION LAST YEAR (2019) AND THEY CHECKED IT WITHIN MINUTES AND SAID IT SEEMED FINE BUT IF I HAD ANYMORE ISSUES TO BRING IT BACK. WELL THE CAR WAS MAKING SOUNDS AND I WENT TO BRYAN EASLER TOYOTA IN HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. AND SPOKE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REGARDING MY CONCERNS SINCE THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL AND I WAS TOLD IT WASN'T,'T PROBABLY ANYTHING BAD. WELL I LEFT WENT UP THE ROAD AND TEN MINUTES LATER THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. TOYOTA TOWED IT IN AND TOOK A COUPLE OF DAYS TO CALL ME AND TELL ME THAT IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE TRANSMISSION RECALL. THAT IS BULL WHAT ELSE MAKES A TRANSMISSION JUST QUIT OUT OF THE BLUE . THERE ARE SO MANY TOYOTA COROLLA TRANSMISSIONS FAILING DUE TO BAD CVT TRANSMISSIONS AND PEOPLE WHO'S WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED ARE TRYING TO BE MADE TO PAY FOR TOYOTA CRAPPY ENGINE. I FEEL LIKE IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND TOYOTA SHOULD HONOR THE TRANSMISSION RECALL AND REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION AT NO COST TO THE CUSTOMER. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME $6800 ON TOP OF THE $7200 I OWE NOT FOR A PILE OF JUNK. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP
TOYOTA HAS A CURRENT RECALL FOR FUEL PUMP FAILURES BUT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY MODEL AND YEAR. THERE ARE OTHER TOYOTA VEHICLES INCLUDED FROM 2015 AND COROLLAS INCLUDED BUT NOT 2015. HOWEVER ON 12/27/2019 MY FUEL PUMP FAILED WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE. THE CAR WOULDN'T START. ON 12/28/2019 MY FUEL PUMP WAS REPLACED FOR $1,680.26. I AM HOPING THAT WITH YOUR INTERVENTION, MY VEHICLE COULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL SO I CAN BE REIMBURSED THE $1,680.26. BEING DISABLED AND ON SOCIAL SECURITY, THE $1,680.26 IS A SIGNIFICANT EXPENSE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO BE REIMBURSED. THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA CORPORATE HAVE DENIED MY REQUEST FOR REIMBURSEMENT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. I HOPE YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE STAYING WELL DURING THIS DIFFICULT TIME. *TR

SPECIAL SERVICE CAMPAIGN JSD PERFORMED ON NOV 03, 2019. THE SOFTWARE COMPONENT WAS UPDATED, HOWEVER THE SOLENOID VALVE INSPECTION AND THE VALVE BODY ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT WAS DETERMINED AS "NOT REQUIRED". SINCE THEN THE CVT SEEMS TO HAVE STARTED TO FAIL. AT THIS POINT IN TIME THE TRANSMISSION MAKES NOISE WHILE ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING. THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE TRANSMISSION AND SITES ISSUES WITH THE BELT IN THE CVT. *LN THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED WITH A USED TRANSMISSION. CONSUMER INFORMED MANUFACTURER OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER REFUSED TO HELP BECAUSE THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. *DL
