ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A CITY STREET WHEN A VEHICLE CHANGED LANES WITHOUT WARNING INTO MY LANE. MY FIRST REACTION WAS TO HONK AS I SWERVED TO AVOID BEING HIT. THE HORN DID NOT WORK, THANK GOD MY THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM FOR ME TO MOVE TO AVOID BEING HIT. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR THE AIR BAG RECALL TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED. I'M WONDERING IF SOMETHING COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO THE SPIRAL CABLE THEN OR IF IT IS JUST A FAULTY EQUIPMENT. WENT I GOT HOME I KEPT TRYING TO MAKE MY CAR HONK AND I NOTICED WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL A CERTAIN WAY IT HONKED. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND ASKED ABOUT THE HORN AND WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE A $200 FEE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THAT MONEY WOULD GO TOWARDS THE COST OF GETTING IT FIXED. I ASKED WHAT THE MAXIMUM COST WOULD BE HE SAID $400. SO THEY DIAGNOSED MY VEHICLE AND SAID THE PART IS $600 AND I HAD 2 WEEKS TO DECIDE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY ANYMORE MONEY TO HAVE THIS FIXED. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE TOYOTA SHOULD CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED! A HORN CAN MAKE A LIFE OR DEATH DIFFERENCE.

AIR BAGS
I WAS INVOLVED IN A ROLLOVER CRASH AND NOT A SINGLE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. I HONESTLY THINK IT'S A DEFECT FROM ALL THE ISSUES THAT TOYOTA HAS HAD WITH AIRBAGS. I WAS RAN OFF THE ROAD GOING AROUND A CURVE AND I HIT A DITCH AND MY CAR FLIPPED END OVER END. THE FRONT OF MY CAR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED, I WAS GOING ABOUT 50MPH, EVERY AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I OWN A 2006 TOYOTA COROLLA THAT WAS INVOLVED IN THE ECM RECALL CAMPAIGN, IN 2011 I TOOK MY TOYOTA TO MY LOCAL DEALER (BAYSIDE TOYOTA) AND THEY INSPECTED THE ECM UNIT AND DEEMED IT OK, NOT IN THE RECALL SERIAL NUMBERS. IN 2018 MY TOYOTA FAILED STATE EMISSIONS (NO OBD-2 PORT COMMUNICATION) AND BEGAN STALLING AND DIFFICULT STARTING. I REMOVED THE ECM UNIT AND DISCOVERED THAT THE SERIAL NUMBERS ARE WITHIN THE 2011 RECALL PARAMETERS. I BROUGHT THE TOYOTA BACK TO MY LOCAL DEALER, THEY INSPECTED THE ECM AND AGREE THAT IT WAS WITHIN THE RECALL SERIAL NUMBERS. MY TOYOTA HAS BEEN AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP (BAYSIDE) SINCE THURSDAY, JANUARY 8 2019. THE DEALER HAS INDICATED THAT TOYOTA CORP. HAS NOT APPROVED THE ECM REPLACEMENT. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING ON MY END TO GET THIS REPAIRED UNDER THE INITIAL RECALL PROGRAM WITHOUT ANY LUCK. WHAT CAN I DO TO ENSURE MY TOYOTA IS SAFE TO DRIVE AT THE DEALERS COST?

SERVICE BRAKES, SUSPENSION
I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE UNDER WARRANTY AT AROUND 7000 MILES. BEFORE 36000 MILES I HAD TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES WITH COMPLAINTS OF BAD FRONT WHEEL BEARING. THEY GAVE ME THE RUN AND AROUND AND I ENDED UP REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE BEARING NOW 3 TIMES. NOW I AGAIN HAVE TO REPLACE THE BEARING ON THE BACK WHICH COMES NOW COMPLETE WITHOUT HAVING TO BE PRESSED IN. I HAVE HEARD FROM OTHERS THAT THIS CAR IS ANONYMOUS FOR THIS PART BEING DEFECTIVE WHICH I THINK IT'S UNFAIR FOR THE CONSUMER. THIS PART IS CLOSE TO OVER 200$. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY THE DEALER ON FIRST OCCURRENCE THAT IT WAS MY TIRES CAUSE THE VEHICLE WORE THEM UNEVENLY. THE CONSUMER IS NOT BEING INFORMED, PROTECTED AND SOLD BAD QUALITY PARTS ON VEHICLES AND THE PRODUCER IS NOT BEING HELD RESPONSIBLE.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE RPM OF THE CAR JUMPS UPTO 4000 WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SLOW THE CAR ON DOWN HILLS. TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS ARE REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE BUT THERE ARE CASES MANY PEOPLE GOT THEIR CAR FIXED OR EXCHANGED. THIS PROVES THE ISSUE WHEN USING CRUISE CONTROL. THE IDEAL INTENT OF USING THE CRUISE CONTROL IS TO SAVE GAS MILEAGE AND EFFORT TO DRIVE THE CAR FOR LONG DISTANCES. I HAVE TO TRAVEL LONG DISTANCES TO WORK ON DAILY BASIS. I FEEL VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR ON CRUISE. TOYOTA SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM TO SAVE THE TRUST OF THE CUSTOMERS. THIS HAPPENS CONSISTENTLY. I AM TRYING TO CONTACT TOYOTA FOR THE ISSUE. I HOPE TO RECEIVE A POSITIVE RESPONSE.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
TAKATA RECALL, I WAS DRIVING HOME IN STOP IN GO TRAFFIC ON FREEWAY AND THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME SPEED UP. ONCE I ACCELERATED TO ABOUT 20-25 MILES AN HOUR THE TRUCK STOPPED, I SAW IT AND TRIED TO STOP BUT BRAKES WOULD NOT WORK. THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE THAT YOU COULD FEEL AND HEAR AS WELL AS WOULDN'T LET YOU PUSH ALL THE WAY DOWN ON BRAKES. THIS RESULTED IN ME HITTING THE PERSON IN FRONT OF ME. HOOD IS PUSHED UP AND FRONT BUMPER COMPLETELY OFF AS WELL AS LIGHT DAMAGE AND MORE BUT NO AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED. ALL 3 OF MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE CAR WITH ME AND THIS IS A HUG SAFETY ISSUE.
