WENT TO RENEW SAFETY INSPECTION FOR THE STATE OF HAWAI'I, AND THEY FAILED ME FOR HAVING THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON. AS IT HAPPENS, THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE SIDE AIRBAG ON "SELECT TOYOTA MODELS". ALTHOUGH, THEY DIDN'T APPLY IT TO MY CAR. EITHER THAT, OR THE TECHNICIAN, WHO TOOK CARE OF IT BEFORE I OWNED IT, DIDN'T ACTUALLY FIX THE ISSUE, AND JUST SIGNED OFF ON IT. I'M STILL GUESSING THAT IT NEVER GOT ADDRESSED, BECAUSE TOYOTA HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL NOTICE FOR MY VIN. THE LOCAL SERVCO TOYOTA SHOP WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE FOR FREE, IF THERE IS NO OPEN RECALL OR I DON'T HAVE THE NOTICE IN MY HAND. IN OTHER WORDS, I WILL BE ILLEGAL TO DRIVE, IN TWO DAYS.

AIR BAGS, SEATS
TAKATA RECALL, GOT RECALL INFO, TOOK THE CAR TO TOYOTA, NO SOLUTION TO PROBLEM. THEY SAID THEY HAD NO PROBLEMS. IT WAS AN INTERIM CALL. MEANTIME, DO NOT ALLOW ANYONE IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. . SO I FEEL LIKE I AM JUST STANDING IN LINE, PAYING FOR SOMETHING I CANNOT FULLY USE. WHERE IS THE FIX TO THE PROBLEM?? IN THE MEANTIME, I AM DRIVING MY UNSAFE CAR, AS SHRAPNEL CAN EXPLODE AT ANYTIME, AND GO ANYWHERE. I NEED HELP HERE. I AM A SAFE DRIVER, WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER GUY. I LIVE IN FLORIDA, AND FIT RIGHT INTO THE RECALL NOTICE, HOWEVER TOYOTA SEEMS NOT TO BE ABLE TO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I AM UPSET, I AM PAYING ON A CAR THAT I CAN ONLY USE A SMALL PORTION OF. AND STILL NOT FEEL SAFE. I LOVE MY CAR, I WANT TO KEEP IT. BUT IT SEEMS LIKE I BOUGHT A FOUR BEDROOM HOUSE THAT MAYBE WILL ONLY HOLD ONE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
OUR 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA XLE WITH 74,000 MILES EXPERIENCED COMPLETE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO A DEFECTIVE FUEL PUMP. WE OWN AND OPERATE THIS CAR AT ABOUT 1,000 FEET (OMAHA NEBRASKA). MY DAUGHTER DROVE THIS CAR NORTH WEST TOWARDS THE EISENHOWER EDWIN C. JOHNSON MEMORIAL TUNNEL IN COLORADO AND THE ENGINE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. VERY LITTLE WARNING AS THE ENGINE SHUTTERED AND CAME TO A COMPLETE AND UNEXPECTED STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF NORTHBOUND TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAY 70. MY DAUGHTER ALMOST GOT HIT BY A COUPLE OF CARS AS SHE REATTEMPTED THE CLIMB TOWARDS THE EISENHOWER EDWIN C. JOHNSON MEMORIAL TUNNEL. BUT TO NO AVAIL. SHE TOOK THIS CAR TO STEVENSON AUTO IN LAKEWOOD COLORADO FOR DIAGNOSIS, BUT THEY COULDN'T RECREATE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY ARE ALLOWED TO DRIVE ONLY 20 MILES OR SO AND THE CAR WAS TOWED 27 MILES FROM HIGHWAY 70 TO THEIR DEALERSHIP (THE CLOSEST TOYOTA DEALER). THEY TOLD MY DAUGHTER TO GO BACK HOME TO OMAHA NEBRASKA BECAUSE THERE AREN'T ANY FUEL PUMP PROBLEMS AT LOW ALTITUDE. BTW, THE TOYOTA TSB IS ENTITLED "EXTENDED CRANK AT ALTITUDE".

I NEED A REMEDY FOR THE RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE TRIED TO BE PATIENT ABOUT THE TEMPORARY SOLUTION OF "JUST DON'T HAVE ANYONE RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT" BUT TO HAVE WAITING 5 MONTHS AND STILL HAVE NO SOLUTION IS OUTRAGEOUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 TOYOTA COROLLA EQUIPPED WITH FIRESTONE 740 TIRES, SIZE: 215/45/R17. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL FOUR TIRES WERE ONLY AT 32 PSI, WHICH CAUSED THE SIDEWALL TO FAIL AND TOUCH THE PAVEMENT.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE PRESSURE WAS 32 PSI AND NO MORE. THE DEALER WOULD NOT INFILTRATE ANY MORE TIRE PRESSURE BECAUSE THEY DID NOT WANT TO BE LIABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT BACK TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE TIRES AT HIS EXPENSE WITH 205/55/16R. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE OF THE TIRE AND VEHICLE WAS 25. THE VIN AND DOT NUMBER WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

I DRIVE QUITE A BIT AND NORMALLY KNOW MY VEHICLES PRETTY GOOD. I HAVE RECENTLY OBTAINED THIS 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA S AND IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION OVERALL. I MADE A TRIP 2 DAYS AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A HESITATION BETWEEN 55-65 MPH. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS APPROXIMATELY 11AM IN THE MORNING AT 78F. DRIVING ON A FLAT WELL MAINTAINED BLACK TOP ROAD THE VEHICLE DOES IN FACT HAVE A CONSTANT HESITATION THAT DROPS APPROXIMATELY 1000-2000 RPMS WITH A NOTICEABLE FEEL IN THE VEHICLE. IMMEDIATELY (3-4 SEC) AFTER THE HESITATION THE VEHICLE RECOVERS BACK TO THE ORIGINAL RPM. AS LONG AS STAYING IN THIS SPEED RANGE (55-65 MPH) THE VEHICLE HAS THE HESITATION REPEATEDLY. THE SECOND ISSUE THAT I HAVE NOTICED ON THE SAME VEHICLE IS THE ACTUAL DECELERATION WHEN REMOVING MY FOOT FROM ACCELERATOR. WHEN TRAVELING ON THE SAME ROAD AND TIME AS STATED ABOVE THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO REALLY COAST RIGHT ALONG OR SO IT SEEMS. WHEN SAYING THIS, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM ACCELERATOR AND THE VEHICLE ROLLS RIGHT ALONG AS IF I AM STILL PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR AT WHICH TIME I MUST APPLY THE BRAKE MORE SIGNIFICANTLY THAN LETTING IT JUST COAST. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THIS IS EFFECTING MY GAS MILEAGE, IS IT GOING TO CAUSE UNDUE STRAIN ON THE DRIVETRAIN, IS THIS GOING TO BE A PROBLEMATIC ISSUE THAT TOYOTA IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO IGNORE?

TAKATA RECALL WHY HASN'T TOYOTA FIXED THIS YET? I FIRST GOT THE RECALL NOTICE IN EARLY JUNE, ALMOST 4 MONTHS AGO. SINCE THEN, I HAVE NOT ALLOWED ANY OCCUPANT TO SIT IN MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, PER THE RECOMMENDATION OF TOYOTA. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!! I NEED MY FRONT SEAT. TOYOTA NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. HOW HARD IS IT TO REPLACE AN AIRBAG INFLATOR?

TAKATA RECALL--I HAVE TRIED REPEATEDLY TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE MY AIRBAG REPLACED. I CAN NEVER GET AN ANSWER. I HAVE REPLIED SEVERAL TIMES TO THE TOYOTA SAFETY RECALL RESOLUTION TEAM AT 1-888-312-5994. THEY ALSO HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET AN ANSWER AND THEY'VE ADVISED ME TO CALL THE DEALERSHIPS DIRECTLY. THE LAST ATTEMPTS WERE MADE THIS MORNING AND THE RESOLUTION TEAM SUGGESTED I JUST DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO MAKE MY APPOINTMENT SINCE THEY WILL NOT ANSWER THE PHONE. WHY IS THIS SO INCONVENIENT? WHY CAN'T TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS ANSWER PHONES TO MAKE APPOINTMENTS AND MAKE THESE CHANGES? HOW CAN I GET THIS REPAIR DONE IN A TIMELY AND CONVENIENT FASHION?

TAKATA RECALL- THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THE AIRBAG RECALL. AT THE TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON CONSTANTLY WHILE THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN. I ADVISED THE DEALER/REPAIR THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND THAT WE HAD RECEIVED NOTICE OF THE RECALL. THE AIRBAG WAS REPAIRED/REPLACED. SEVERAL DAYS LATER THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND STAYED ON, THEREFORE I CONTACTED THE DEALER. THEY ADVISED ME TO BRING THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER. WE HAVE NOW TAKEN IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND NOW THEY SAY IT COST $110 FOR THE ASSESSMENT AND $550 FOR THE SPIRAL CABLE. I FEEL THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE AIRBAG RECALL AND REPAIRED AT THE TIME THE RECALLED PART WAS REPAIRED. WHEN I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE TODAY TO ASK ABOUT THE RECALLED AIR BAG THEY MADE ME FEEL AS IF WE WERE IN THE WRONG BECAUSE WE DID NOT TAKE IT BACK IMMEDIATELY AND THAT THESE WERE TWO SEPARATE ISSUES. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK AT OUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE AND WERE SHOCKED AT THE COST OF REPAIRS AND THAT IT IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL AND WAS NOT CORRECTED WHEN THE RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED. IN ADDITION, OTHER VEHICLES HAVE RECALLED THIS PART SUCH AS DODGE, VOLKSWAGEN, HYUNDAI, KIA, AND JUST THIS YEAR JEEP ISSUED A RECALL ON THE SAME PART. I HAVE INCLUDED THESE DOCUMENT IN THIS COMPLAINT. I FEEL THAT THIS PART SHOULD BE LOOKED AT TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF ALL THOSE DRIVING A TOYOTA.

TAKATA RECALL: TOYOTA IS FREQUENTLY MAILING ME REMINDERS AND MAKING TELEPHONE CALLS ADVISING ME TO TAKE MY CAR TO THE NEAREST DEALER TO REPAIR A DEFECT THAT COULD SPRAY BITS OF METAL AROUND THE CABIN. I AM ON THE "LIST" AT MY DEALER AND THEY TELL ME IT COULD BE TWO MONTHS OR LONGER BEFORE THEY GET THE PARTS. WHEN I CALLED THE TOYOTA RECALL PEOPLE TODAY THEY SAID AT ANOTHER DEALER THE ESTIMATED WAIT FOR PARTS WAS 14 WEEKS. HOW IS THIS ACCEPTABLE? I AM SURE THAT ALL OF THESE NOTICES ARE MERELY TO MEET SOME REQUIREMENT THAT THE NHTSA HAS PLACED ON THEM. WHY DON'T WE JUST FIX THE CAR!
