UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE OWNER'S MANUAL SHOWS A LOCATION FOR LIFTING THE VEHICLE IN THE FRONT USING A FLOOR JACK (PAGE 427). THIS LOCATION IS NOT PRESENT ON MY VEHICLE AND THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP. THIS COULD LEAD TO SOMEONE USING ANOTHER IMPROPER LOCATION TO LIFT THE VEHICLE WHICH COULD CAUSE AN INJURY TO A PERSON IF THE VEHICLE SLIPS OFF THE JACK OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MISSING PART IS ALSO REFERENCED ON PAGE 475 AS A LOCATION TO TOW THE VEHICLE BY. AGAIN, SINCE THIS LOCATION IS MISSING, SOMEONE COULD TOW THE VEHICLE BY A SPOT NOT DESIGN TO BE TOWED BY. THIS COULD ALSO RESULT IN INJURY TO A PERSON OR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
DISAPPOINTED WITH TOYOTA ON THIS, LAST ONE I WILL PURCHASE IF THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE A FIX! WHILE IN MOTION ON EVERY OCCASION THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED AND THE VEHICLE IS ON A DECLINE THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE SET SPEED. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME OF 4 OTHER COROLLA'S I HAVE OWNED THAT RESPONDED LIKE THIS. DEPENDING ON THE SEVERITY OF THE DECLINE THE SPEED WILL INCREASE FROM 5 TO 15 MPH AND THE ENGINE REVS TO 4,000 RPMS IN AN ATTEMPT TO MAINTAIN SPEED. ADAM'S TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT THIS IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE FOR ALL 2017 COROLLA'S CVT'S AND I MAINTAIN IT'S NOT AND CRUISE IS USELESS THEREFORE I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED. THE CRUISE CONTROL IN ALL OTHER VEHICLES (PRIOR COROLLA'S AND OTHER MAKES) I HAVE OWNED HAS MAINTAINED A CONSISTENT SPEED NO MATTER THE ROAD BEING TRAVELED. SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED EVERY TIME I HAVE ENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL. OTHERS ONLINE HAVE COMPLAINTS ON THIS ISSUE AS WELL. TOYOTA PLEASE PROVIDE FIX

AIR BAGS
MY DAUGHTER WAS INVOLVED IN A REAR END COLLISION WITH ANOTHER CAR THAT ABRUPTLY STOPPED TO TURN. SHE WAS ONLY GOING 30 MPH AND HYDO-PLANNED INTO THE CAR AS A RESULT OF THE RAINY CONDITIONS. THERE WAS MINIMAL DAMAGE DONE TO THE VEHICLE THAT SHE HIT BUT HER CAR SUSTAINED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END WHICH CAUSED FRAME DAMAGE. THE FRONT END OF THE CAR WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED BUT NONE OF THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYED DESPITE DIRECT DAMAGE TO COLLIDING INTO THE STOPPED VEHICLE.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE DIFFICULTY WHEN LOCKING/UNLOCKING MY VEHICLE WITH MY REMOTE KEY FOB AND MAIN LOOK SYSTEM FROM ALL DOORS OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTON IS PUSHED ON THE VEHICLE'S TWO FRONT DOORS THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR DOES NOT LOCK WITH THE OTHER DOORS ON THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS THE ONLY DOOR THAT MALFUNCTIONS ALL OTHER DOORS OPERATE EFFICIENTLY. THIS LOCKING MALFUNCTION OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED. THE DRIVER'S DOOR CAN BE LOCKED MANUALLY BY PUSHING THE LOCK INWARDS OR USING THE CAR KEY TO MANUALLY LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOOR. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE'S LOCKING SYSTEM IS A PRIMARY CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE'S OWNER, AND THE OWNER'S PROPERTY INSIDE THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS OLD. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN WITH OTHER TOYOTA COROLLA OWNERS (INCLUDING YEAR MODELS OF 2014 AND 2015) WHO COMPLAIN OF THE SAME ISSUES.

ENGINE
MY 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS THE RECALL ON 2009 CAMRY. EXTREME USE OF OIL. WHEN THE TIME FOR MY 5000-MILE OIL CHANGE MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THERE WERE LESS THAN 2 QTS LEFT IN THE CRANKCASE. SINCE THAT OIL CHANGE, THE CAR HAS USED 1 QT IN 2000 MILES. I VISITED THE POWAY, CA. TOYOTA DEALERSHIP BUT SINCE THERE WAS NO RECALL ON COROLLAS THEY WOULD NOT EVEN DISCUSS REPAIRS WITH NO CHARGES. HOW CAN IT BE FAIR THAT ONE VEHICLE THE CAMRY IS COVERED WITH A RECALL AND ANOTHER MODEL THE OWNERS MUST PAY FOR THE REPAIRS OF THE SAME PROBLEM THE CAMRY HAD BUT WITH A RECALL DIDN'T HAVE TO PAY ANYTHING.
