SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
WHILE APPLYING THE BRAKES (2009 TOYOTA COROLLA LE 38,000MILES) ON THE SNOW OR SLICK CONDITION ROAD THE WHEELS WOULD CONSTANTLY STOP/ROTATE AS SOON I WOULD PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AND PREVENTED ME FROM STOPPING UNTIL THE CAR SLID INTO A DRY SPOT, CURB, OR SNOW BANK. IT SEEMED AS IF THE BRAKES WERE OVER SENSITIVE CAUSING THE BRAKES TO IMMEDIATELY RESPOND WITH THE CONSTANT STOP/ROTATE. FOR A COUPLE OF SNOW FALLS (09/10 SEASON) I DEALT WITH THIS BY SLOWING DOWN AND USING THE BRAKES WAY BEFORE MY INTENDED STOPS. ON 1/7/10 AS I WAS COMING OVER A SLIGHT DECLINE I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE IN RESPONSE TO A VAN ABOUT 150 FEET IN FRONT OF ME AT A RED LIGHT WHICH CAUSED THE CAR REAR END TO WHIP AROUND TO THE FRONT ACROSS ONCOMING TRAFFIC LAND INTO A SNOW BANK. AT THAT POINT THE CAR WAS STUCK AND HAD TO BE PULLED OUT. ALTHOUGH THE TIRES STILL HAD SUFFICIENT TREAD ON THEM (NO BALDING) I REPLACED ALL THE TIRES. THAT STOPPED THE OVER SENSITIVE REACTION WITH THE BRAKES. *TR

VISIBILITY, STRUCTURE
I HEARD RATTLING WHICH I THOUGHT WAS FROM MY TRUNK. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO LOCATE THE RATTLE, I DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS MY BACK WINDOW. THERE IS A SEAL FAILURE AND YOU CAN LITERALLY LIFT THE REAR WINDOW IN MY 2008 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE. THE CAR HAD APPROXIMATELY 50,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THAT I SHOULDN'T WAIT TO GET THIS REPAIRED. HOWEVER, THE DEALERSHIP ALSO SAID THEY WOULD REPAIR THE SEAL, BUT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PART THAT GOES AROUND THE REAR WINDOW AND THAT MY 100,000 EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER THIS. UNFORTUNATELY, THAT PART DOES NOT GO ALL THE WAY AROUND THE REAR WINDOW, LEAVES THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDOW EXPOSED AND THUS THE POSSIBILITY FOR THIS TO OCCUR ON ALL OF THESE VEHICLES AS WELL AS REOCCUR ON THIS ONE. I HAVE TAKEN PICTURES OF THIS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY I SHOULD PAY FOR ANYTHING SINCE THIS IS NOT A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. IT IS DEFECTIVE! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ONE SATURDAY AFTERNOON, MY 2006 COROLLA WITH ONLY 32K MILEAGE ON IT JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY (I-880 SOUTH BOUND) IN OAKLAND, CA JUST AFTER THE OAK EXIT. TO MAKE THINGS WORSE, THE AREA WHERE IT STOPPED HAS NO SHOULDER. THE CHP PUSHED THE CAR TO THE NEARBY OFF RAMP AND I HAD IT TOWED TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN HAYWARD. THE SERVICE ATTENDANT TOLD ME MY CAR HAD A COMPUTER PROBLEM WHICH HAPPENED IN 2005 AND 2006 MODELS OF COROLLA. THEY DID SOME FIXES ON IT. WHEN I WAS PICKING IT UP, SETTLED THEIR EXORBITANT FEES AND WAIT ON THE SIDE FOR THE CAR, IT TOOK ME OVER 20 MINUTES TO WAIT. IT TURNED OUT THE CAR BROKE AGAIN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM AND TOLD ME TO WAIT ANOTHER 15 MINUTES SO THEY CAN FIX SOMETHING IN THE COMPUTER OF THE CAR. MY CONCERN IS, IF THEY KNEW THERE WERE SOME ISSUES WITH THEIR 2005 OR 2006 COROLLAS, THEY SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED THE CUSTOMERS TO PREVENT DANGEROUS THINGS TO HAPPEN. AND WHY WOULD THE CAR WITH ONLY 32K MILES ON IT SUDDENLY STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY? IT WOULD BE A DIFFERENT STORY IF THE MILEAGE IS OVER 100K. *TR

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK AT 40 MILES PER HOUR. JUST MISSED HITTING ANOTHER CAR ON THE ENTRANCE RAMP IN FRONT OF ME. THIS CAR WAS SUPPOSEDLY FIXED BY WESTBURY TOYOTA IN WESTBURY, NY ON FEBRUARY 9TH. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALER TODAY, MARCH, 10,2010. WHERE THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT OWNERS ARE MAKING THIS WHOLE PROBLEM UP, AND TRIED TO CHARGE ME $100,00 FOR AN ELECTRONIC DIAGNOSTICS TEST ON THE CAR. HE ALSO REFUSED TO GIVE ME A LOANER CAR OR RENTAL CAR AT TOYOTA'S COST WHILE THEY CHECKED THE CAR OUT FOR A STICKING ACCELERATOR PEDAL PROBLEM BECAUSE THE RECALL "FIX" WAS ALREADY DONE ON THIS VEHICLE. OBVIOUSLY THE "FIX" DID NOT WORK AT ALL. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE IT COULD HAPPEN AGAIN WITH FATAL RESULTS. *TR

MY 2006 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS HAD SEVERAL EPISODES OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHILE GOING DOWN STEEP MOUNTAINS SUCH AS THE GRAPEVINE PASS NEAR LA AND HIGHWAY 101 BETWEEN LA AND SANTA BARBARA. WHILE GOING DOWNHILL, MY 21 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER TRIED TO STEP ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR, BUT IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED TO 90 MILES AN HOUR AND SHE HAD SOME VERY VERY SCARY MOMENTS... WE HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO 2 DIFFERENT TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS AND CALLED TOYOTA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER AND SERVICE SUPERVISORS BUT OUR COMPLAINTS WERE IGNORED ON GROUNDS THAT THE 2006 COROLLA WAS"NOT ON THE RECALL LIST" OR THAT THEY COULD NOT "REPLICATE THE PROBLEM". SINCE THE PROBLEM ONLY HAPPENS ON STEEP, DOWNHILL ROADS WHEN MY DAUGHTER STEPS ON THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR, IT NATURALLY CANNOT BE REPLICATED ON THE FLAT SURFACES OF SACRAMENTO OR ONTARIO, CA. AFTER GIVING TOYOTA SUCH SPECIFIC INFORMATION, ONE WOULD HOPE THAT THEY WOULD TRY TO EXPLORE IT, FIX IT OR REPLACE THE CAR GIVEN THE HIGH DEGREE OF DANGER AND THE HIGH INCIDENCE OF DEADLY CRASHES IN RECENT YEARS. WE ARE VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THEIR FAILURE TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR REFUND US THE BLUE BOOK VALUE SO THAT WE COULD PURCHASE A SAFER CAR FOR OUR CHILD. THE PROBLEM REOCCUR EVERY TIME MY DAUGHTER DRIVES THIS ROUT TO COME HOME FROM COLLEGE ON VACATIONS. SHE HAS ADAPTED BY DRIVING ONLY 55 MILES PER HOUR ON THE GRAPEVINE PASS ON THE SLOWEST LANE. HOWEVER, NOW THAT WE ARE COGNIZANT OF THE PROBLEM AND HEAR ABOUT SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, WE ARE SIMPLY TERRIFIED AND WANT TO BUY HER A NEW AND A SAFER CAR. WE FEEL TOTALLY FRUSTRATED BY TOYOTA'S FAILURE TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM AND BY THEIR TENDENCY TO BRUSH IT OFF DESPITE THE MANY FATALITIES. PLEASE CONTINUE TO PUT GOVERNMENTAL PRESSURES ON TOYOTA AND INSIST THAT THEY FIX THE PROBLEM RATHER THAN HIDE FROM IT AND ABDICATE THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO THEIR CLIENTS AND OTHER INNOCENT DRIVERS. PLEASE HELP US AND PLEASE CALL OR EMAIL US. *TR

2008 COROLLA ACCELERATES ON IT'S OWN APPROXIMATELY ONCE A WEEK SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE 10/2008. ALWAYS ON HIGHWAY, IT FEELS LIKE WHEN THE CRUISE RESUMES, THE WAY THE CAR JUST PICKS UP SPEED AS SOMETHING IS PUSHING IT, BUT THE CRUISE IS NOT ON. IT DOES SLOW DOWN WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL, SO IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A PEDAL STICKING. SINCE RECALLS OF OTHER VEHICLES I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER I HAVE MY CAR SERVICED BY THAT IT IS SOMETHING ELECTRONICALLY AND IS NORMAL. I HAVE ASKED EVERYONE I KNOW IF THEIR CARS DO THIS, NO ONE HAS EVER EXPERIENCED THIS, EVEN SOMEONE WHOSE CAR HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SO CALLED GAS PEDAL STICKING. I'M GETTING VERY SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR AS I DRIVE 80 MILES ROUND TRIP FOR WORK. ALSO, MY BRAKES MAKE THIS LOUD CLUNK SOUND 1/2 THE TIME THEY ARE APPLIED. HAD THEM CHECKED ABOUT A YR AGO AND THEY ALSO SAID THIS IS NORMAL. AGAIN NO ONE I HAVE TALKED TO HAS THIS PROBLEM. *TR

STEERING
INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) TOYOTA COROLLA 2010 STEERING IS DANGEROUS ABOVE 40 MPH, THE CAR WON'T STAY IN IT'S LANE AND IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT CONSTANT COUNTER STEERING. INTERSTATE SPEEDS REQUIRES NERVES OF STEEL AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT TO EVEN THE BEST DRIVER. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND THE LOCAL DEALER SAYS EVERYTHING IS FINE. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THIS CAR OVER 65 MPH, EVEN ON THE INTERSTATE, VERY TIRING AND STRESSFUL TO TRAVEL IN THIS CAR (AT SPEED). THIS CAR HAS HANDLED LIKE THIS SINCE NEW..NO CORRECTIVE ACTION (FIX) FROM THE DEALER AS OF 3-8-2010 [XXX] *TR

I HAVE A 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA. WITHIN THE FIRST FEW WEEKS I NOTICED THAT THE CAR DID NOT TRACK STRAIGHT. IT SEEMED TO TAKE CONSTANT CORRECTION TO THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP IT GOING IN A STRAIGHT LINE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR ALIGNMENT AND THEY SAID THEY CHECKED IT AND THE ALIGNMENT WAS FINE. I ALSO TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT SERVICEMAN AND THEY SAID IT WAS FINE ALSO. IT STILL IS NOT RIGHT. I HAVE GOTTEN USED TO IT A LITTLE. I AM TAKING MY CAR IN TO THE DEALER NEXT WEEK FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL RECALL AND I WILL LODGE A COMPLAINT WITH THEM AT THAT TIME. *TR
