VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 70 MILES PER HOUR AND AS I CAME UP ON A SLOWER MOVING VEHICLE, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR AND WHEN I DID THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INSTEAD OF SLOWING DOWN. I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN. MY WIFE HAS TOLD ME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO HER TWICE IN THE LAST WEEK AND I JUST DISMISSED IT. WE HAD THE RECALL REPAIR DONE ON OUR CAR ALMOST TWO WEEKS AGO. *TR

EQUIPMENT:OTHER:OWNERS/SERVICE/OTHER MANUAL, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I HAVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. DEC.24 2009 WAS A REPORT OF THE FIRST FAILURE. I WAS DRIVING OUT OF A RESIDENTIAL PARKING LOT AND APPLIED MY BRAKES BEFORE I APPROACHED THE STREET AND MY CAR ENDED UP ACCELERATING HITTING THE PASSENGER DOOR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. MOREOVER IF I DRIVE OVER A BUMPY SURFACE OR POT HOLE MY PEDALS START TO KICK BACK OR VIBRATE. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CALL IT. ALSO I HAVE 2 RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE ACCORDING TO TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER. AFTER FIXING MY RECALL I NOW HAVE A NEW PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. IT MAKES SQUEAK SOUNDS AND SQUEALS AS I APPLY MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER ON MAR.2 AND THEY TOLD ME AFTER WAITING 2 HOURS THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR AND PUT ON MY SERVICE RECEIPT AS "NORMAL NOISE". ALSO REGARDING THE ACCIDENT A TOYOTA INSPECTOR FROM CORPORATE INSPECTED MY CAR BEFORE MY RECALL WAS FIXED AND DESPITE THE TWO RECALLS SAID THAT MY VEHICLE HAS NO PROBLEMS AND THE ACCIDENT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. I NOW DRIVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA THAT SQUEALS AND SQUEAKS EVERY DAY AND MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS FIGHTING PROPERTY DAMAGE AND BODILY INJURY CLAIMS FROM THE DRIVER I STRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND EVERYTHING APPEARS TO BE MY FAULT AND NOT TOYOTA. IM IN SUCH DISTRESS WITH TOYOTA I DON'T KNOW WHAT MORE TO DO. I GAVE THEM CHANCE AFTER CHANCE TO HELP ME BUT ITS JUST GETTING WORSE. THIS IS MY FIRST NEW CAR AND ALSO MY FIRST ACCIDENT I EVER HAD. IM SCARED THAT I HAVE TO PAY 20,000 FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS FOR A DEFECTED CAR. PLEASE HELP! *TR

STEERING
SINCE DELIVERY, MY NEW 2010 COROLLA HAS HAD A STEERING PROBLEM. IT VEERS OR WANDERS TO THE LEFT OR FIGHT RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (65-75MPH). NOT THE ALIGNMENT. VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES BESIDE YOU. IS NOT DUE TO THE WIND - OCCURS ON WINDLESS DAYS. HAVE OWNED 25 CARS IN 50 YEARS, SOME TOYOTAS; THIS IS THE WORST - WILL NOT STAY STRAIGHT; BOTH DANGEROUS AND FATIGUING TO DRIVE. MUST FULLY FOCUS AND MAKE CONSTANT CORRECTIONS TO TRACK STRAIGHT. RECALL! UNSAFE! *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA THAT IS PART OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL REINFORCEMENT BAR RECALL/INSTALLATION. I HAVE NOTICED ANOTHER PROBLEM THAT APPEARS TO ALSO INVOLVE THE ACCELERATOR. THIS VEHICLE HAS A 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE PROBLEM OCCURS IN BOTH 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. THIS PROBLEM IS NOT CONSISTENT MEANING IT IS NOT ALWAYS NOTICED EVERY TIME I DRIVE, I WOULD MAINTAIN THAT IT OCCURS AT LEAST 50% OF THE TIME HOWEVER. PROBLEM: I ATTEMPT TO MAINTAIN A CONSTANT SPEED FOR INSTANCE IN 3RD GEAR AT 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE FEELS AS IF IT WANTS TO SPEED UP, I THEN REMOVE SOME PRESSURE FROM THE ACCELERATOR, THE VEHICLE THEN SLOW BY JERKING, I THEN ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE AND THE VEHICLE JERKS AGAIN, BOTTOM LINE IS I CAN NOT MAINTAIN A CONSTANT SPEED. THE ROAD CONDITIONS DO NOT MATTER, FLAT, HILL, BUMPY, SMOOTH, WET DRY, 30 MPH, 31 MPH, 32, MPH ETC. I CANNOT MAINTAIN A CONSTANT SPEED IN 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. I AM NOT SURE OF AN APPROXIMATE DATE, IT HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN AUGUST OF 2009. I WILL JUST ENTER A RANDOM DATE BELOW. *TR

STEERING
I FIND IT VERY DIFFICULT TO TRACK THE VEHICLE IN A STRAIGHT LINE ON AN OPEN ROAD IN WINDY OR UNEVEN ROAD CONDITIONS. THERE IS VERY LITTLE OR NO FEEDBACK THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL. THE VEHICLE DEMANDS YOUR FULL ATTENTION UNDER THESE CONDITIONS MAKING IT VERY TIRING AND IN MY OPINION SOMEWHAT UNSAFE AT SPEEDS GREATER THAN 50MPH. SEEMS TO BE OK OR BETTER AT LOW SPEEDS SUCH AS IN RESIDENTIAL OR CITY ENVIRONMENTS. THESE CONCERNS WERE REPORTED TO THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND IN THE NEW CAR FEEDBACK FORM I RECEIVED FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I RECEIVED NO FEEDBACK FROM THE MANUFACTURER ON THAT SURVEY AND THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT STATED THE STEERING AND WHEEL ALIGNMENT WERE WITHIN TOLERANCES. I DID HOWEVER GET THE FOLLOWING HINTS FROM TWO DIFFERENT SALES REPRESENTATIVES , OVER INFLATE THE TIRES, LOOK FURTHER UP THE ROAD ,PUT SOME WEIGHT IN THE TRUNK, NONE OF WHICH I EMPLOYED. RIDICULOUS!!! *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I DRIVE TOYOTA COROLLA LS 2010. I WAS DRIVING TO WORK TODAY APPROXIMATELY WITH 45M/H. I WAS GETTING READY TO TAKE AN EXIT FROM THE HIGHWAY, I SAW COUPLE CARS WERE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE EXIT APPROXIMATELY METER AWAY FROM ME. I DECIDED TO REDUCE THE SPEED AND GETBACK TO THE HIGHWAY(TO GET AROUND THEM SO I CAN TAKE MY EXIT. I HIT MY BRAKE SLIGHTLY TO SLOW DOWN MY CAR DID NOT EVEN CHANGE SPEED, I TRIED COUPLE TIMES NOTHING HAPPENED. THEN I DECIDED TO STEP ON THE BRAKE ALL THE WAY MY CAR DID NOT CHANGE THE SPEED AT ALL IT WAS GOING AT THE SAME SPEED. MY CAR WAS TRAVELING STRAIGHT ROAD FOR 7-8 SECONDS, THEN I HAD TO MAKE A QUICK DECISION SO I WILL NOT HIT THE CARS THAT WAS ONFRONT OF ME(THEY WERE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FOR SOME REASON) BECAUSE I WAS GETTING TOO CLOSE. I DECIDED TO GET BACK TO HIGHWAY SO I WILLNOT HIT ANYONE. BUT AFTER I TRIED TO GET BACK TO THE HIGHWAY I TOTALLY LOST MY CONTROL OF THE CAR. THE CAR MOVED WITH NO CONTROL FOR SEVERAL SECONDS THEN I AND UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. I WAS LUCKY EVERYONE WAS BEHIND ME AND THEY STAYED AWAY FROM MY CAR. I JUST TOOK MY CAR TO BE FIXED FROM THE STICKING ACCELERATION PROBLEM. I BELIEVE MY BREAKS DID NOT WORKED AT THAT POINT AND MY CAR WAS MOVING WITH THE SAME SPEED . AFTERWARD I WAS ABLE TO MOVE MY CAR AND MY BRAKES WERE WORKING. I AM WORRIED TO DRIVE THAT CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE. I COULD OF HURT THE LADY AND HER KIDS THAT WERE BEHIND ME. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I WANT TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WITH TOYOTA COROLLA THAT I BOUGHT FROM GERMAIN TOYOTA IN SARASOTA IN JULY OF 2009. WHILE DRIVING ON I-275, I APPLIED BRAKES. FOR A MOMENT THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK, AND CAR KEPT RACING. I SENT CAR BACK TO DEALER, THE DEALER INSPECTED THE CAR AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES PLEASE NOTE, I RAISED THE ISSUE WITH DEALER IN AUG 2009, MUCH BEFORE THE OFFICIAL RECALL WAS ORDERED. THE DEALER WAS CONCERNED AND DID TOW THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY INSPECTED. I HAVE DEALER REPORT, AND THIS INCIDENT IS RECORDED WITH THE DEALER.*TR

STEERING
WHEN I DROVE MY 2010 COROLLA FROM THE DEALER IT HAD FIVE MILES ON IT. WITHIN ONE HALF MILE I REALIZED THAT THE CAR WANDERED LEFT AND RIGHT AND NEEDED ME TO STEER LEFT AND RIGHT TO KEEP THE CAR IN THE CENTER OF THE ROAD. I KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE CASTER ADJUSTMENT WAS SET SO THE CASTER WAS FACED FORWARD. I BROUGHT IT BACK AND THE SERVICE MGR SAID IT WAS DESIGNED TO HAVE THE CASTER SET FORWARD BY TWO DEGREES. I AM 72 AND A CAR GUY. A FORWARD CASTER WILL CAUSE THE CAR NOT TO BE ABLE TO STEER STRAIGHT. IT WAS TO BE DRIVEN BY MY GRAND DAUGHTER WHO HAS 18 MONTHS DRIVING EXPERIENCE. WE BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE TO HAVE THE CASTER SET TO 'FOLLOW' RATHER THAN 'LEAD'. THE SERVICE PEOPLE SAID IT WAS SET TO TOYOTA DESIGNS OF TWO DEGREES FORWARD. THAT IS THE PROBLEM ALONG WITH, MAYBE, SOMETHING IN THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS THAT MIGHT BE ADDING TO THE PROBLEM. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. IF TOYOTA DOESN'T SPEAK TO THIS AND CORRECT IT I NEED TO HAVE THIS CAR REPLACED BY AN AMISH HORSE AND CARRIAGE. TOYOTA HAS INTRODUCED A NEW FEATURE THAT IS DEADLY. *TR

STEERING, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
WHILE TRAVELING AT ABOUT 50 MPH THE GAUGES WENT INSTANTLY FROM 50 TO 0. AT THE SAME TIME MULTIPLE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON THE DASH. THE CAR STILL HAD POWER WHEN STEPPING ON THE GAS, LIGHTS AND RADIO WERE STILL ON. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO TURN TO GET OFF THE ROAD, THEN STEERING WHEEL CLICKED AND LOCKED. THERE WAS NO STEERING. MY BRAKES DID WORK. IT WAS AS IF THE CAR HAD SHUT ITSELF OFF AND THEN BACK ON, BUT DIDN'T UNLOCK THE STEERING. THE CAR WAS NEW WITH LESS THAN 300 MILES ON IT. THIS WAS THE FIRST INCIDENT OF THIS KIND, I HAD NO OTHER PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR UNTIL THEN. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP. IT WAS TESTED THE NEXT DAY & I WAS TOLD IT WAS A SPEED SENSOR, BUT THE SENSOR WAS NOT REPLACED. THEY CONNECTED IT TO THE COMPUTER AND REPROGRAMMED IT AND SAID IT WAS GOOD TO GO. I REFUSED TO ACCEPT IT UNTIL THEY COULD TELL ME WHY IT HAPPENED AND WHAT THEY HAD REPLACED TO GUARANTEE IT WOULD NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DO SO AND ENDED UP REPLACING MY CAR WITH A NEW ONE. *TR

STEERING
THIS WAS NOT A FAILURE, BUT MORE OF A CONSTANT PROBLEM. MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS A SERIOUS TENDENCY TO WANT TO WANDER IN THE LANE. I DRIVE TO WORK EVERYDAY ON THE EXPRESS WAY, ABOUT 25 MILES. IT REQUIRES CONSTANT MONITORING AND ADJUSTMENTS TO KEEP THE VEHICLE TRACKING STRAIGHT. IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS ALWAYS ON A SLIPPERY ROAD, EVEN WHEN THE PAVEMENT IS DRY. AS SPEEDS INCREASE THE PROBLEM INCREASES; IT IS ALWAYS PRESENT. NEVER WORSE AT ONE TIME THAN ANOTHER. I HAVE NOT REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO THE DEALER, BUT I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TODAY AT 12:30 FOR THE GAS PEDAL RECALL, I WILL INFORM THEM OF THE ISSUE AS WELL. *TR
