VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN USING THE RADAR CONTROLLED CRUISE CONTROL, THE ENGINE WILL SOMETIMES REV TO OVER 4000 RPM. A TOYOTA FIELD ENGINEER TOLD ME THAT THIS IS ENGINE BRAKING, BUT THIS OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS ON A LEVEL STRETCH OF HIGHWAY AT THE SET SPEED AND NO OTHER UNUSUAL CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS EXACT SAME PROBLEM OCCURS WITH MY WIFE'S 2017 COROLLA. I'VE READ A NUMBER OF COMMENTS ON THE TOYOTA OWNERS WEBSITE (HTTPS://WWW.TOYOTA.COM/OWNERS/COMMUNITY/ASK-AN-OWNER/QUESTION-DETAILS/ID/62752030). SOME HAVE EVEN SAID THEIR CARS SPEED UP WHEN THIS PHENOMENON HAPPENS. THIS HAS HAPPENED CONSISTENTLY EVERY TIME I'VE USED THE CRUISE CONTROL SINCE I TOOK DELIVERY OF THE CAR ON 12/1/2017, AND IT HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES PER TRIP. THE DATE I ENTERED BELOW IN THIS FORM WAS ONLY THE LATEST OCCURRENCE.

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE DRIVING DOWN A DOWNGRADE WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED AND SET TO 65MPH, THE CVT TRANSMISSION SEEMED TO DOWNSHIFT, THE RPM'S INCREASED AND THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED TO WELL OVER THE SPEED LIMIT. IT FELT LIKE I WAS LOSING CONTROL. I HAD TO ACTIVATE THE BRAKES TO DISENGAGE THE CRUISE CONTROL IN ORDER TO REDUCE MY SPEED TO BELOW THE POSTED SPEED LIMIT. I TRIED IT AGAIN ON ANOTHER DOWNGRADE AND THE SAME SITUATION WAS DUPLICATED. I DID NOT TAKE THE CAR INTO A DEALER SINCE THE ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO DEALERSHIPS WITH A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I TURNED MY COROLLA WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT, AND THE RADIO DOES NOT TURN ON OR WORK. IT SHOWS A PICTURE OF A MACHINE OF SOME SORT, AND LOOKS LIKE IT IS REBOOTING, BUT ONCE THE "LOADING BAR" GETS TO THE END, THE SCREEN TURNS BLACK AND STARTS THE REBOOT PROCESS OVER AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT EVER COMPLETEING A REBOOT. THE NAVIGATION, RADIO, BLUE TOOTH, CD PLAYER, OR ANYTHING THAT IS DONE THROUGH THE RADIO SCREEN IS NOT FUNCTIONAL.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES
TAKATA RECALL. I WAS RECENTLY IN AN ACCIDENT ON FRIDAY 6/15. I WAS REAR ENDED BY A FORD EXPLORER GOING 60 MILES PER HOUR WHILE I WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC ON I495. THIS COLLISION CAUSED ME TO REAR END THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY WHICH CAUSED ME TO SLAM MY HEAD INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL WHERE I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A CONCUSSION. SINCE THE ACCIDENT I HAVE STILL HAD HEADACHES AND SENSITIVITY TO LIGHT. I ALSO HAVE HAD SEVERE BRUISING DUE TO THE IMPACT. PRIOR TO THE COLLISION I HAD STICKY BRAKES WHICH SOMETIMES I WOULD BREAK AND THE BREAK WOULD NOT HALT PROPERLY,, BUT WHEN PRESSED AGAIN THE CAR WOULD BRAKE. DURING THE ACCIDENT THE BRAKES DID THIS STICKY EFFECT AND CAUSED THE IMPACT TO BE GREATER.
