SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY CAUSE OF SNOWY CONDITIONS, I APPLIED THE BRAKES GENTLY STARTING ALMOST 20 -30 FT BEFORE REACHING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, TO MAKE A STOP BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE AND THE CAR JUST ROLLED ON TO HIT A FORD SUV. WITH THE BRAKE FULLY DEPRESSED I WAS ALMOST 10 FEET AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE IN FRONT. NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE CAR DID NOT SWING OR SKID, IT WENT STRAIGHT. MY CAR FRONT BUMPER AND HOOD WAS DAMAGED. THIS IS MY FIRST ACCIDENT IN MY DRIVING CAREER. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER, AND LODGED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA. *TR

STEERING
1) 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA SPORT STEERING IS NON-RESPONSIVE AND LACKS ANY FEEDBACK OR ON-CENTER FEEL. CAR IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP ON TRACK, ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY, AND REQUIRES CONSTANT CORRECTION TO STAY IN THE LANE. STEERING WHEEL DOES NOT RETURN TO CENTER WHEN TURNING AT HIGHER (>35MPH) SPEEDS. 2) THE CONDITION IS ALWAYS PRESENT. 3) CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALER AND WAS RE-ALIGNED AFTER 500 MILES. CONDITION CHANGED VERY LITTLE AND IS STILL PRESENT. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I OWN A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHEN I APPLY THE BRAKE, THERE IS A SHUDDERING FEELING AND SOUND BEFORE THE BRAKING HOOKS IN. I WOULD SAY THIS HAS HAPPEND ABOUT 10 TIMES IN THE 6 MONTHS I HAVE OWNED THE CAR. IN LIGHT OF THE OTHER BRAKING PROBLEMS, I AM MORE AND MORE CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ONE. I PLAN TO DISCUSS THIS TO WITH TOYOTA WHEN I TAKE MY CAR FOR THE OTHER BREAKING AND ACCELERATOR REPAIRS. HOWEVER, IN LIGHT OF ALL OF THE PROBLEMS WITH THE NEW CARS, WHAT IS IT GOING TO TAKE BEFORE THE DOT INSISTS THAT THERE BE A BUYBACK OF THESE 2009-1010 CARS, WHICH ARE OBVIOUSLY FULL OF PROBLEMS. WHERE WILL IT END? MORE ACCIDENTS? I WANT MY MONEY BACK. *TR

STEERING
I WAS JUST READING THIS ARTICLE ON MSNBC ABOUT 2010 COROLLAS (HTTP://WWW.MSNBC.MSN.COM/ID/35314540/NS/BUSINESS-AUTOS/) AND YES! I HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN TO ME AS WELL. THE CAR VEERS TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT, AND DOES MAKE IT DIFFICULT TO STAY IN THE LANE. IT DOESN'T OCCUR ALL THE TIME HOWEVER. I HAVEN'T NOTICED IF IT ONLY OCCURS GOING OVER A CERTAIN SPEED, OR HOW TO REPRODUCE ON A CONSISTENT BASIS. ALL I KNOW, IS THAT IT IS MOST DEFINITELY A PROBLEM! *TR

STEERING
I BOUGHT A 2010 COROLLA ON JANUARY 15, 2010. I AM NOT PLEASED WITH THE WAY IT STEERS. AT FIRST, I ATTRIBUTED IT TO BEING A NEW CAR AS EVERYTHING HAS TO BE BROKEN IN. HOWEVER, AFTER NEARLY 4 WEEKS, IT'S STILL THE SAME. THE CAR IS VERY HARD TO DRIVE IN A STRAIGHT LINE. THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMS EXTREMELY TIGHT. THE LEAST LITTLE THING WILL CAUSE THE CAR TO VEER TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT. IT REQUIRES EXCESSIVE GRIP ON THE WHEEL. IT'S LIKE FIGHTING WIND ALL THE TIME. AND WHEN THE WIND IS BLOWING, IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO HANDLE. IS THIS SITUATION BEING REPORTED BY OTHER COROLLA OWNERS? AND IF SO, WILL THE ISSUE BE INVESTIGATED? MY DAUGHTER IS THE PRIMARY DRIVER OF THIS VEHICLE AND SHE SAYS SHE EXPERIENCES THE SAME ISSUE. WE'VE NOT EXPERIENCED ANY ACCIDENTS OR INCIDENTS, YET! IT'S A SCARY SITUATION. *TR

STEERING
WE HAVE A NEW 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA WITH ABOUT 3,000 MILES ON IT. THE STEERING ON THIS CAR IS "STRANGE" -- IT HAS LITTLE TO NO ROAD FEEDBACK AND SEEMS TO HAVE "DEAD SPOTS" IN IT -- YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT MORE EFFORT TO GET PASS THESE. THE RESULT IS THAT IT IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP IT IN A STEADY/SMOOTH LINE WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY -- YOU NEED TO MAKE CONSTANT CORRECTIVE MOVEMENTS TO THE STEERING WHEEL. THE FACT THAT THERE IS NO ROAD FEEL/FEEDBACK CONTRIBUTES TO THIS PROBLEM. WHILE I NEED TO ENTER A DATE TO PROCEED WITH THIS COMPLAINT FORM, THIS STEERING ISSUE OCCURS AT ALL TIMES SINCE WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR. WE ALSO HAVE A 2002 TOYOTA AVALON -- AND ITS STEERING AND ROAD FEEL IS GREAT. *TR

AM TOLD BY TOYOTA THAT CAR IS PERFECTLY SAFE TO DRIVE... I AM NOT CONVINCED. *TR

STEERING
BOUGHT MY NEW 2010 COROLLA S ON DEC. 28TH, 2009; NOTICED HOW THE STEERING WAS ODD, BUT THOUGHT IT WAS MY IMAGINATION. IT SEEMS TO DRIFT ON IT'S OWN LEFT AND RIGHT - LIKE IT'S BEING BLOWN AROUND BY A GUST OF WIND - BUT THE WIND ISN'T BLOWING! THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. EACH TIME IT DOES THIS VEERING MANEUVER I LOOK AT THE SURROUNDING TREES TO SEE IF THEY ARE BEING BLOWN TOO - BUT THEY ARE NOT. I HAVE JUST OVER 1,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE AND I FEEL LIKE I'VE BEEN SCAMMED BY TOYOTA. THIS IS MY FIRST OFFICIAL COMPLAINT AND I WILL CALL THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. *TR

STEERING
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2010 COROLLA ON FEBRUARY 3, 2010. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD TONIGHT FROM WORK AND MY CAR STARTED DRIFTING TO THE LEFT. IT WAS EXTREMELY HARD FOR ME TO STAY IN THE PROPER LANE. IT APPEARS IF THE CAR WAS DRIFTING BY ITSELF, AND I WAS ON THE VERGE OF LOSING CONTROL. BY RESEARCHING HOW TO REPORT THIS PROBLEM I NOTICED THERE WERE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME SITUATION. TOYOTA IS PUTTING MAY LIVES INTO DANGER, THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED IMMEDIATELY. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS REGARDING THIS ISSUE? IS RETURNING/EXCHANGING THIS CAR A POSSIBILITY AT THIS TIME DUE TO THE FACT I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE A WEEK? I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. MY FAMILY IS IN EXTREME RISK, I WOULD LIKE SOMEONE TO CALL ME IMMEDIATELY REGARDING THIS SITUATION. *TR

SUSPENSION
MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS BEEN DRIFTING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IF I TAKE MY EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND TO GLANCE AT MY REAR VIEW MIRROR OR SIDE VIEW MIRRORS, THE COROLLA WILL BEGIN TO DRIFT TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT. THE DRIFTING USUALLY BEGINS AROUND THE 40 MPH MARK. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY CLAIM THAT THEY ARE NOT FINDING ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AS I WAS TURNING OFF A MAIN ROAD TO A STORE PARKING LOT MY VEHICLE BEGAIN TO ACCELERATE AFTER I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE. I WAS GOING ABOUT 10MPH AT THE TIME. I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY STOP THE CAR AND TURN IT OFF. AT THIS TIME, I WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE IN MY FAMILY TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. I AM AN ENGINEER AND THERE IS NO QUESTION IN MY MIND THAT THIS VEHICLE WAS ACCELERATING ON ITS OWN AFTER I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE AND I WAS DRIVING ON A ROAD WITH NO GRADE (FLAT ROAD).

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
I OWN A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA S. OCASSIONALLY WHEN I'M BRAKING, MY CAR DOESN'T WANT TO BRAKE. IT MAKES A GRINDING FEELING UNDER MY FOOT. THEN I HAVE TO QUICKLY APPLY THE BRAKE AGAIN TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A FLUKE AT FIRST OR DUE TO THE ROAD BEING WET, BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY, AND THE PAVEMENT WAS DRY. LUCKILY I DON'T WAIT UNTIL THE LAST SECOND TO BRAKE, AND I DON'T TAILGATE. *CN
