I WANT TO LET SOMEONE KNOW ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED IN 2005 TO MY 1992 COROLLA. I WAS WAITING BEHIND ANOTHER CAR TO PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE. ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE FORWARD/ I IMMEDIATELY PUT MY OTHER FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND PUSHED AS HARD AS I COULD. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO STOP IT BEFORE I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. BUT IT TOOK EVERY BIT OF STRENGTH I HAD TO DO IT. I NEVER REPORTED IT BECAUSE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING A NEW CAR WHICH I HAVE NOW. A 2005 COROLLA. I REPORTED IT TO TOYOTA WHEN I HEARD ABOUT ALL THE OTHER PROBLEMS BECAUSE I THOUGHT THEY SHOULD KNOW. THIS WAS A 1992 CAR. MY FOOT WAS NOT EVEN ON THE GAS PEDAL WHEN IT HAPPENED. I NEVER HEARD A RESPONSE FROM TOYOTA. *TR

I OWN A 92 TOYOTA COROLLA. ON THURSDAY 31 DECEMBER 2009 MY ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE. THERE WAS A DEFECT IN THE STARTER ON MY CAR AND WHEN I WENT TO TURN THE IGNITION TO TURN ON MY CAR I IMMEDIATELY SMELLED THE HEAT AND SAW SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD. I GOT OUT OF THE CAR AND OPENED THE HOOD AND WITNESSED THAT THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. I PUT OUT THE FIRE. IT WAS LATER DETERMINED THAT THE STARTER OVERHEATED AND THAT'S WHAT CAUSED FIRE. *TR

DRIVER'S SIDE SHOULER BELT BECOMES FRAID AND STARTS TO UNRAVEL. THIS SEEMS TO BE OCCURRING ON OTHER CORROLLAS WITH THIS RESTRAINT SYSTEM. (92'S HAVE TWO BELTS; A LAP BELT AND A SHOULDER BELT) IS THERE A RETRO- FIT AVAILABLE? THIS PROBLEM SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS. PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU.*AK
