ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
WHILE DRIVING ON PR HIGHWAY, WITHIN 10 MTS, THE CAR'S ENGINE STOPPED HAVING ENOUGH TIME TO PARK THE CAR ON THE EMERGENCY SIDE ROAD. WHEN I SAW SMOKE COMING OUT THE HOOD, I GRABBED BY BELONGINGS AND WALKED AWAY FROM THE CAR. WHILE I'M CALLING MY HUSBAND I SAW THE CAR IN FLAMES. ON DEC. 28, 2015 I SUBMITTED AN INVESTIGATION WITH TOYOTA OF PR IN RELATION TO THE FIRE ON MY CAR ON DEC 24, 2015. UNTIL THIS DATE I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANY RESPONSE REGARDING THEIR CASE # [XXX]. WHEN I CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE CRITICAL CASES COORDINATOR, HER ONLY RESPONSE IS THAT I WILL RECEIVE A WRITTEN NOTICE FROM HEAD OFFICE. I'VE BEING 2 MONTH WITHOUT A CAR TO GET TO WORK AND I FEEL FRUSTRATED IN THE MANNER TOYOTA HAS TREATED MY SITUATION EVEN WHEN I AUTHORIZED THEM TO PICK UP AND EXAMINE THE CAR AFTER THE INCIDENT. BY THE WAY I STILL HAVE THE BURNED CAR IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE IN CASE THEY NEED ADDITIONAL DATA. I WILL APPRECIATE IF YOU COULD GUIDE ME AS TO MY RIGHTS OR OPTIONS BEING THAT THE CAR WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITIONS AND I EXPECTED SOME KIND OF REWARD OR VOUCHER FROM TOYOTA TO AT LEAST HELP ME OBTAIN ANOTHER CAR FROM THEM.

STEERING
ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING IN MY 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA BECOMES NOTICEABLY LOOSE AND WILL DRIFT TO ONE SIDE WHILE DRIVING. I NOTICE THE STEERING WHEEL BECOME LESS RESPONSIVE AFTER PULLING INTO/OUT OF A DRIVEWAY, OVER TRAIN TRACKS, POTHOLE, ANYTHING THAT PROVIDES SHOCK TO THE VEHICLE WITH THROW OFF THE STEERING CONTROL, BUT IT COULD BE A FLAT STRAIGHT ROAD AND THE VEHICLE WILL DRIFT. THE STEERING CONTROL IS SO LOOSE THAT ONE MUST CONSTANTLY BE ADJUSTING THE STEERING WHEEL TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM DRIFTING. I HAD MY ALIGNMENT ADJUSTED 3 TIMES OVER THE PAST 3 WEEKS THINKING SOMETHING MAY BE WRONG WITH IT, BUT THE TECHNICIANS STATED THAT ALIGNMENT WAS WITHIN SPEC. I PURCHASED NEW TIRES (AND BALANCED TIRES) AND THE DRIFTING STILL OCCURS. FOUND THIS TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN TSB-0140-10 AND IT IS EXACTLY THE SAME DRIFT LIKE CROSSWIND PUSHING THE VEHICLE. I CALLED A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND SPOKE TO A SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO STATED THAT THE AUTHORIZED SOLUTIONS WAS TO REPLACE THE ECU WITH A DIFFERENT ECU PART NUMBER, CALIBRATE STEERING WHEEL CENTERING AND AGAIN ALIGN THE WHEELS FOR THE NEW ECU. IF THEY GIVE REPLACE IT WITH A DIFFERENT PART NUMBER WHY ISN'T THIS A SAFETY RECALL, SINCE THEY ARE NOT REPLACING IT WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART NUMBER? SOMEONE AT TOYOTA IS CLEARLY AWARE THAT THE OLD PART NUMBER IS NO GOOD. IF THE VEHICLE STEERING GOES OUT EVEN SLIGHTLY WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, WHY IS THAT NOT CONSIDERED A SAFETY RECALL? NO PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE CAN PREVENT THIS, ONLY A TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER CAN REPAIR THIS. THIS WOULD ONLY BE COVERED BY TOYOTA WARRANTY IF THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED WITHIN 36 MONTHS OR 36000 MILES, EVEN THOUGH A SETTLEMENT WAS REACHED WITH TOYOTA IN JULY 2015 THAT CLOSED THE ISSUE WITH THE NHTSA. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP QUOTED ME AN OUT OF POCKET REPAIR COST OF $1200, FOR SOMETHING THAT THEY KNOW IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING CONTROL.

TAKATA RECALL - I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE FOR MY VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY TOYOTA DEALER TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR TO BE MADE. THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME IT WOULD BE ABOUT 8 WEEKS UNTIL THEY COULD FIX IT. I ASKED WHY SO LONG, AND HE INFORMED ME THAT TOYOTA WILL ONLY AND THEN ONE PART PER WEEK. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT WHAT SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, IS NOT BEING TREATED AS SUCH. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY IS TOYOTA DOING THIS, POTENTIALLY RISKING THE LIVES OF HOW MANY TENS OF THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE, IN AN EFFORT TO DO WHAT, SAVE A BUCK? I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE AN ANSWER. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *TR
