STEERING
SUDDEN FAILURE OF STEERING WHILE DRIVING. CURRENT MILEAGE AROUND 116,000. HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR ABOUT 30MIN AROUND 15-35MPH ON CITY STREETS WHEN STEERING SUDDENLY LOCKED UP AT ABOUT 15MPH WHILE I WAS MERGING LANES. BECAME INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT TO TURN STEERING WHEEL. AFTER 3 STRAIGHT BLOCKS AND NO CARS IN THE ROAD, I HAD TO USE 3 LANES AND ALOT OF FORCE TO ATTEMPT TO TURN RIGHT IN ORDER TO GET OFF THE MAIN ROAD AND ON TO A SIDE STREET. I LET RUNNING CAR SIT FOR ABOUT 5 MINUTES WHILE I TRIED TO CALL FOR HELP...THEN THE STEERING SUDDENLY STARTED TO WORK AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS HAPPENING AGAIN. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN ON A FREEWAY.

STEERING
STEERING THE COROLLA IS DIFFICULT AND REQUIRES INTENSE EFFORT. THE ISSUE IS THE CAR WONDERS/SWERVES AND IS THUS DIFFICULT TO KEEP TRACKING CORRECTLY. THIS IS FIRST ELECTRIC POWER STEERING VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED AND PERHAPS IT RESPOND DIFFERENTLY FROM HYDRAULIC STEERING BUT THIS STEERING ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS, TAKING YOUR EYES OFF THE ROAD EVEN TO SCAN GAUGES WILL HAVE YOU STEERING OFF THE ROAD OR ADJACENT LANE. JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE 1/19 WITH ONLY 70K SO IT'S IN MINT CONDITION AND NO ACCIDENT HISTORY OR EVIDENCE TO BLAME.

STEERING
SUDDEN FAILURE OF MY CAR'S POWER STEERING: I WAS DRIVING AT ABT 50-55 MILES PER HOUR AT I-880 GOING NORTH, I WAS MAKING A LANE CHANGE BECAUSE MY EXIT WAS APPROACHING, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, I LOST MY POWER STEERING, MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME SUPER HARD TO MOVE OR TURN, AND I ALMOST HIT THE REAR-RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, WHICH WAS AT THE SAME LANE. I WAS ABLE TO CHANGE LANE BUT IT WAS A VERY CLOSE CALL FOR COLLISION-ACCIDENT. I WAS TOLD THAT MY CAR HAS ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS). SUCH EPS SHOULD HAVE A BACK UP SYSTEM, OR SUCH FAILURE SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ALL OF A SUDDEN--IN A BLINK OF AN EYE. WITHOUT A BACK UP SYSTEM, SUCH SUDDEN FAILURE COULD RESULT IN FATAL ACCIDENT. IT WAS TOO SCARY, PANICKY, N STRESSFUL FOR ME. THEN, WHEN MAKING A LEFT N A RIGHT TURN, BECAUSE OF MY SUPER HARD TO TURN-STEERING WHEEL, I SUFFERED A SPRAIN N PAIN IN THE LEFT SIDE N THE RIGHT SIDE OF MY BODY. THE MILEAGE OF MY CAR WAS ABOUT 106470 MILES WHEN IT HAPPENED.

TAKATA RECALL. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP (BOB HOWARD TOYOTA IN EDMOND, OKLAHOMA) TO SCHEDULE THE AIRBAG REPLACEMENT BUT WAS TOLD THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART AND WILL CALL ME WHEN THE PART IS AVAILABLE. I ASKED THE EMPLOYEE IF WE COULD GET A RENTAL OR LOANER CAR IN THE MEANTIME SINCE WE USE THE PASSENGER DAILY FOR OUR KIDS. SHE INFORMED ME THEY DO NOT DO THAT AND THAT I NEED TO CALL TOYOTA DIRECTLY VIA THE NUMBER ON THE RECALL FORM. AFTER TALKING TO TOYOTA THEY INFORMED ME I SHOULD RECEIVE A CALL FROM TOYOTA RELATIONS AT THE DEALER (BOB HOWARD TOYOTA) WITHIN 48 HOURS. AFTER WAITING A WEEK AND RECEIVING NO CALL I DECIDED TO CALL TOYOTA DIRECTLY AGAIN. I WAS THEN INFORMED THE DEALERSHIP WAS SUPPOSE TO CALL ME BACK ON THE 27TH OF AUGUST (48 HOURS FROM ORIGINAL CALL WITH TOYOTA) BUT THEY DID NOT. WHEN TOYOTA TRIED TO REACH OUT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE PERSON IN CHARGE OF HANDLING THESE MATTERS WOULD NOT ANSWER THEIR CALLS. SO NOW I AM WAITING AN ADDITIONAL 24 HOURS TO GET A CALL BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP TO GET A LOANER CAR. DURING THIS WHOLE THING WE ARE STILL DRIVING A CAR WITH A AIRBAG THAT COULD POTENTIALLY KILL SOMEONE!
