TAKATA RECALL. STONE MOUNTAIN TOYOTA HAS BEEN EXTREMELY UNRESPONSIVE IN MY EFFORTS TO GET THE TAKATA RECALL ON MY VEHICLE ACCOMPLISHED. MY VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AT THIS DEALERSHIP AND THEY SEEM TO TRY TO DELAY OR IMPEDE THE PROCESS OF REPLACING THE AFFECTED PART. THEY CLAIM, FROM THE BEGINNING, THAT I MUST LEAVE MY VEHICLE WITH THEM OVERNIGHT TO GET THE WORK DONE. I KNOW THAT THE ACTUAL REPAIR TIME IS 10 MINUTES AND THAT THE DEALER HAS UP TO 1 1/2 HOURS TO DO THE WORK, ALSO, THE FACT THAT I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE SO THAT THEY CAN SCHEDULE THE NECESSARY PERSONNEL TO COMPLETE THE WORK SHOULD BE ADEQUATE FOR THEM TO DO THE WORK NEEDED. MY APPOINTMENT WAS MARCH 26, 2018 AT 3:00 PM AND WHEN I ARRIVED THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE CAR HAD TO BE LEFT AT THE DEALERSHIP OVERNIGHT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE SINCE I NEED THE VEHICLE TO GO TO WORK. THEY MAKE NO EFFORT TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS IN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME. THE ADDRESS FOR STONE MOUNTAIN TOYOTA IS 4400 US HIGHWAY 78, LILBURN, GA 30047 AND THEIR PHONE NUMBER IS 770-736-0030.

AIR BAGS
THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG "OFF" LIGHT, WARNING LIGHT AND MAIN AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND REMAIN ON. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN PARKED AND WE HAVE NEVER HAD THIS MESSAGE BEFORE. ERROR CODE B1650 AND B1797. THE ERROR CAN NOT BE CLEARED. THE "FIX" IS TO REPLACE THE FLOOR HARNESS THEN THE CENTRAL AIR BAG ECU AND THEN THE SEAT ASSEMBLY UNTIL IT IS FIXED. APRX $5000. 2 TOYOTA MECHANICS GAVE US DIFFERENT DIAGNOSTIC, ONE TELLING US THERE WAS CORROSION AND THE OTHER SAYING THERE WAS A BROKEN WIRE. INDEPENDENT CHECKING OF THE HARNESS SHOWED NEITHER. I AM FROM CANADA BUT THOUGHT I SHOULD SUBMIT THIS HERE ALSO SINCE I SEE COMPLAINTS FOR THIS ISSUE IN THE U.S,

AIR BAGS
TAKATA RECALL. I WANT TO KNOW IF AND WHEN MY AIRBAG INFLATOR WILL BE RECALLED. I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY, AND IT GETS PRETTY HOT AND HUMID HERE IN THE SUMMER, AND COOL AND HUMID IN THE WINTER. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BY NHTSA AND THE PRESS SUGGESTS I FACE THE RISK OF A FAULTY EXPLODING AIRBAG. IT SEEMS THAT THE RECALL IS GAMBLING WITH THE ODDS THAT THERE IS LESS CHANCE OF AN EXPLOSION OUTSIDE PR, FL, THE GULF STATES, NC AND CA. I DO NOT LIKE FACING THIS RISK AND THINK NHTSA SHOULD ORDER TAKATA AND TOYOTA TO REPLACE MY AIRBAG INFLATOR WITH SAFE EQUIPMENT. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU WILL DO TO PROVIDE ME AND ALL THE OTHER CAR OWNERS FACING THIS RISK WITH A REMEDY. THIS RISK IS, AFTER ALL, THE RESULT OF INTENTIONAL VIOLATIONS BY TAKATA AND OTHERS. I JUST LEARNED OF THIS RISK TODAY IN THE PRESS. THANK YOU.

STEERING
DIFFICULT TO STEER AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE PULLS TO THE LEFT AND IT'S TERRIFYING TRYING TO DRIVE EVEN SHORT DISTANCES ON THE HIGHWAY OR SURFACE STREETS WITH AN ELEVATED MPH VALUE. IF I DO NOT ACTIVELY KEEP MY STEERING WHEEL TURNING TOWARDS THE RIGHT, I WILL SURELY CRASH INTO A VEHICLE IN THE NEXT LANE. EXTREMELY UNSAFE!

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL CAUSES THE CAR TO DOWN-SHIFT UNNECESSARILY ON A STRAIGHT DOWNHILL GRADE AND SOMETIMES INCREASES THE SPEED BY AS MUCH AS 8-10 MPH. I FEEL OUT OF CONTROL, WHICH IS DANGEROUS. A TOYOTA TECHNICIAN HAS CONFIRMED THE SAME BEHAVIOR ON ANOTHER 2017 COROLLA. ON ONE OCCASION, ON A FREEWAY DOWNHILL WHERE THE SPEED COULD HAVE EASILY BEEN CONTROLLED BY LETTING OFF THE GAS, THE CAR DOWNSHIFTED TO D3, REVS WENT TO ABOUT 4000, AND THE SPEED INCREASED TO 70MPH - WHEN IT WAS SET TO ABOUT 62. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, ON A RELATIVELY FLAT, STRAIGHT FREEWAY ROAD, IT AGAIN DOWNSHIFTED FOR NO APPARENT REASON, AND THE SPEED AGAIN INCREASED OVER THE SET SPEED (OF COURSE THE REVS WERE HIGHER AGAIN). IN BOTH OF THE ABOVE CASES, THERE WAS NO CAR OR OTHER OBSTACLE IN FRONT OF ME THAT SHOULD CAUSE THE CAR TO SLOW DOWN. I'VE SEEN THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE RESPOND TO A CAR TOO CLOSE SO KNOW HOW THAT FEELS.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED IN THE HOUSE-ATTACHED GARAGE. I ALREADY ENTERED THE GARAGE, AND THE CAR IS ALMOST STOPPED. THEN I NEED TO HIT THE BRAKE THOROUGHLY TO FULLY STOP THE CAR. I HIT THE BRAKE PEDAL HOWEVER THE CAR ACCELERATED SUDDENLY, JUMPED AHEAD AND CRASH INTO THE HOUSE WALL. EVEN THOUGH EVERYTHING HAPPENED IN A SECOND, I'M SURE THAT IT IT THE LARGER PEDAL(WHICH IS THE BRAKE) I ENGAGED WITH IN THAT SECOND. I HAVE DRIVEN THIS CAR FOR 3 YEARS, AND PARKED IN THIS GARAGE FOR MONTHS. SO I'M PRETTY FAMILIAR WITH THE CAR AND THE PLACE. LUCKILY, THERE IS NO PEOPLE GOT INJURED, AND THE AIR BAG DIDN'T EXPLODE. THE WALL WAS HIT SIGNIFICANTLY, AND THE FRONT OF MY CAR WAS DAMAGED.

SEATS, SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
BOTH FRONT SEATS ARE LOOSE. I NOTICE MINE IS LOOSE WHEN I MAKE A SUDDEN STOP OR AND GO OF BUMPS AND DIPS. I BEEN TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS, BUT ONLY ONE IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM. THE ADVISOR SAID IT WILL TAKE LITERALLY 8 HOURS EACH, I CALLED TOYOTA TO LET THEM KNOW OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE MECHANIC FROM THE DEALER WHO NOTICED THE PROBLEM. HE ALSO SAID HE NOTICED THE NOISE I WAS TALKING ABOUT WHEN I GO OVER DIPS AND BUMPS. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BALL JOINT OR BUSHING AND HE SAID NO. THEY NOISE IS JUST THERE

SERVICE BRAKES
ON OCTOBER 22, 2017, WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP BEHIND 3 OTHER VEHICLES. THE FIRST VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKES, BECAUSE I WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP, WAS HIT FROM BEHIND BY A TRUCK. THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD TOWARDS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, AND I MASHED MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO STOP IT, BUT IT WOULD NOT STOP. MY CAR KEPT ACCELERATING FORWARD, WHILE I WAS FRANTICALLY KEPT MASHING MY BRAKES TO THE FLOOR. THE TOYOTA COROLLA NEVER STOPPED UNTIL I PULLED UP THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR, THAT I PURCHASED ONLY SINCE JUNE OF 2017. I WAS TERRIFIED WHILE MY KEPT GOING, AND WAS INJURED FROM THE CAR HITTING ME FROM BEHIND.
