FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY TURNED OFF WHILE I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. I WAS ABLE TO START THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY IN NEUTRAL. THIS HAS OCCURRED 4 MORE TIMES IN SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCES. HOWEVER, LAST NIGHT, WHILE TURNING THE CAR WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT RAPIDLY TO AVOID AN OBJECT ON THE STREET, THE CAR LOST POWER. ALL THE WARNING AND CONTROL LIGHTS IN THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WERE TURNED ON FOR 3 TO 4 SECONDS BUT THE CAR STARTED ON ITS OWN. THAT IS, I DID NOT HAVE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY ON AS IN PREVIOUS 4 OCCASIONS. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER FOR TOMORROW MORNING.

ENGINE
I PURCHASED A TOYOTA COROLLA IN 2010 AND IT APPARENTLY HAD A POTENTIAL CAM GEAR ISSUE. THEY HAD PUT OUT A TSB ALERT ON THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER THEY NEVER DISCLOSED TO ME THAT THIS ISSUE COULD ACCUR. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THEIR DEALERSHIP AND THE COST OF REPAIR IS $1150. IF THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD ME AT THE TIME OF THE PURCHASE THAT THE CAM GEAR COULD HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE I WOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASED IT. THEY FAILED TO DISCLOSE TO ME ANY POTENTIAL ISSUES AT THE TIME OF SALE. THIS PRACTICE IS FRAUDULENT AND HIGHLY UNETHICAL. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED WITH ME AND IT BE CORRECTED FOR FUTURE PURSCHASES OF OTHERS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE HEADLIGHTS COME ON WITHOUT THE CONTROL BEING TOUCHED. THIS BEGAN WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE CAR & STILL DOES. AT FIRST IT WOULD HAPPEN AT ANY TIME OF THE DAY BUT NOW IT HAPPENS ONLY WHEN IT IS DARK OR GETTING DARK. THIS COULD IMPAIR THE VISION OF THE DRIVER OF AN ONCOMING VEHICLE. IT IS MOST DANGEROUS ON NARROW STREETS. THERE ARE OTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS THAT OCCUR FROM TIME TO TIME SUCH AS THE CRUISE CONTROL, POWER MIRRORS, AIR CONDITIONER, DRIVING & DASH LIGHTS NOT WORKING. ALSO THE DOME LIGHT HAS REMAINED ON CAUSING THE BATTERY TO RUN DOWN .THESE LATTER PROBLEMS DO NOT SEEM TO POSE THE THREAT THAT THE HEADLIGHTS DO BUT THEY SEEM TO BE CONNECTED & THEY ARE A DISTRACTION THAT COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES BUT THEY NEVER CORRECTED THE PROBLEM.

I HAD MY CAR SCANNED TO FIND OUT WHY MY AIR BAG LIGHT WAS AND THE FAULT CODE WAS B1811 OPEN FOR DRIVER SQUIDB CIRCUIT. THEY CHECKED AND FOUND THAT MY CLOCK SPRING WAS BAD. THE PART NUMBER WAS1 84306-02110 CABLE SUB. THIS IS A DEALER ITEM FROM TOYOTA. I GOT THE PART FROM KINGS TOYOTA IN CINNAINNTI OHIO. I WORK FOR ANOTHER DEALER AND HAD THEM PUT IN ON FOR ME,. I DID RECEIVE A DISCOUNT ON BOTH THE LABOR AND THE PART. I HAVE CALLED TOYOTA TO SEE IF MY CAR WAS ON THE RECALL LIST AND IT IS NOT. THIS WAS MY AIR BAG AND I GOT TOLD BY OUR SERVICE TECH THAT MY AIR BAG WOULD NOT GO OFF IF I HAD A FRONT END WAS IN A WRECK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I DON'T SEE HOW MY CAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST WHEN I DID HAVE AIR BAGS ISSUES. I DO HAVE A COPY OF THE SERVICE WORK ORDER.
