VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW 2004 TOYOTA COROLLA IN MAY THIS YEAR. A FEW DAYS LATER I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREE WAY AND THE NEW CAR ACCELERATED BY ITSELF. I TRIED TO STEP ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN, IT BECAME UNCONTROLLABLE. I WAS DRIVING AT 60 MILES PER HOUR. FINALLY I HAVE TO EXIT THE FREE WAY AND THE CAR HIT THE DIVIDER AND GOT TOTALLY CRASHED.*AK

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:TAIL LIGHTS:SWITCH
1996 TOYOTA COROLLA - WHEN LIGHTS ARE ON AND YOU STEP ON THE BRAKES, THE RIGHT TAIL LIGHT GOES OUT. IT IS DANGEROUS AS WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT, IT APPEARS TO THE DRIVER BEHIND YOU THAT YOU ARE SIGNALING FOR A RIGHT TURN. I HAVE REPLACED THE BULBS AND IT WILL APPEAR OK, THEN BEGIN MALFUNCTIONING AGAIN. THERE MUST BE AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTION PROBLEM IN THE TAIL LIGHT ASSEMBLY. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COROLLAS ON THE ROAD THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD CAUSE ACCIDENTS. *AK
