TIRES, WHEELS
WE PURCHASED A NEW TOYOTA PRIUS THAT CAME WITH YOKOHAMA ALL SEASON RADIALS. BECAUSE THE TIRE LIGHT CAME ON, I CHECKED THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES AND SET THEM TO THE PSI AS RECOMMENDED AT ABOUT 1000 MILES. THERE WAS A MINOR IMBALANCE OF 3-4 PSI IN SOME TIRES, BUT NO SERIOUS UNDER INFLATION. WE NOTICED SOME MINOR ROAD NOISE AND VIBRATION. WE HAD A MECHANIC INSTALL MUD FLAPS AND INSPECT THE TIRES, WHEELS, AND BRAKES AT ABOUT 1500 MILES TO SEE IF THERE WAS A VISIBLE REASON FOR VIBRATION. THERE WAS NOTHING OBVIOUS. WE WERE CONCERNED ABOUT THE ROAD NOISE AND ABOUT 2000 MILES WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE TOYOTA DEALER WHO INSPECTED THE TIRES, CHECKED THE AIR PRESSURE, AND DECLARED THAT THEY DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG. AT ABOUT 3000 MILES DRIVING AT A SLOW SPEED (35 MPH OR LESS) IN A SCHOOL ZONE, WE HAD A COMPLETE BLOW OUT OF THE LEFT REAR TIRE. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS A GRASSY SHOULDER AND NO TRAFFIC, SO WE HAD NO INJURIES OR OTHER DAMAGE. THE TREAD APPEARED TO SEPARATE AND THERE WAS A SIDEWALL TEAR STARTING AT THE TREAD. WE RETURNED TO THE TOYOTA DEALER AND ALSO SHOWED THE TIRE TO THREE DIFFERENT TIRE SHOPS (ALL THREE SELL YOKOHAMA TIRES). THE TOYOTA DEALER DID NOT OFFER AN OPINION OTHER THAN TIRE DEFECT - SO WE NEEDED TO DEAL WITH THE MANUFACTURER. TWO TIRE SHOPS THOUGHT IT WAS A DEFECT (EVEN THOUGH THEY SAID IT WAS A HASSLE TO GET A REPLACEMENT PAID FOR BY YOKOHAMA). ONE SHOP REPORTED IT WAS A DEFECT UNLESS THE TIRE WAS UNDER INFLATED, BUT THEY DIDN'T SEE ANY WEAR PATTERN THAT INDICATED UNDER INFLATION. BECAUSE OF THE BLOWOUT AND A SECOND SUSPICIOUS TIRE OF THE FOUR, WE REPLACED ALL FOUR WITH A DIFFERENT BRAND. AS FAR AS WE CAN TELL, THE YOKOHAMA TIRE(S) WERE DEFECTIVE AS NEW ON THE CAR. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
TOYOTA'S ENTUNE NAVIGATION SYSTEM RANDOMLY FREEZES AND RESETS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS AT HIGH SPEEDS ON A HIGHWAY WHERE A PERSON IS DEPENDING ON THE SYSTEM TO GET SOMEWHERE, IT CAUSES A MASSIVE DISTRACTION AND A RISK TO LIFE AND LIMB. TOYOTA IS OFFERING NO RESOLUTION TO THIS ISSUE AND IT'S DEALERSHIPS ARE REFUSING TO EVEN REGISTER USER COMPLAINTS - "UNLESS THEY CAN REPLICATE THE ISSUE" WHICH IS RATHER DIFFICULT SINCE THE PROBLEM IS RANDOM AND THE DEALERSHIPS WILL NOT TAKE USER REPORTS OF THE ISSUE AS CREDIBLE. *JS

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2014 TOYOTA PRIUS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO PUSH START IGNITION SYSTEM. *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE BELONGS TO HIS PARENTS. HE NOTICED THE ENGINE TURNED ON BY ITSELF. HE WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AND NOTICED THE POWER PUSH BUTTON WAS LIT WHICH INDICATED THE ENGINE WAS ON. THE SCREEN ON THE CENTER CONSOLE STATED NO KEY WAS DETECTED. HE PRESSED THE POWER BUTTON TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER, IF HE WALKED AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE WITHOUT TURNING OFF THE IGNITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD STAY ON. THE ENGINE TURNED ON BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WAS IN BATTERY MODE TO REPLENISH THE BATTERY POWER, WHEN THE SYSTEM DETECTS THE BATTERY CHARGE HAS DROPPED BELOW A CERTAIN LEVEL. *JB

STEERING, SERVICE BRAKES
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA PRIUS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE DROVE OVER A POTHOLE, WHICH CAUSED THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE TO ELEVATE. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING AND BRAKES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,500. THE CONSUMER STATED HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, FOR ERRATIC STEERING WHEN GOING AROUND CURVES AT MODERATE SPEEDS. THE SAME MORNING, WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE WENT OVER A DIP IN THE PAVEMENT. THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE WENT AIRBORNE AS IF, IT WAS ON A HYDRAULIC LIFT. THE CONSUMER HAD NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING OR BRAKING. WHAT SAVED HIM WAS THE LEFT REAR BRAKE AND THE TIRE JERKED ON THE PAVEMENT AND PULLED THE VEHICLE BACK STRAIGHT. HE EXPERIENCED THE FAILURE FOR A SECOND TIME. UPDATED 10/29/14 UPDATED 11/21/14*CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE DOESN'T OCCUR WITH MULTIPLE PEOPLE IN THE VEHICLE.

SEATS
I FINALLY REALIZED THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE HEAD RESTRAINT ON THIS CAR IS CAUSING ME CHRONIC NECK AND HEAD PAIN. IT PUSHES MY HEAD FORWARD, WRECKING MY POSTURE. SITTING PARKED, WITH THE HEADREST REMOVED, THE SEAT IS COMFORTABLE AND ALL THE CONTROLS ARE WITHIN REACH OF MY HANDS AND FEET. I UNDERSTAND THAT YOUR NEW REGULATIONS CALL FOR A MINIMUM OF 2" FROM THE BACK OF THE HEAD TO THE HEAD RESTRAINT. I HAVE ZERO ROOM, AND MY HEAD IS PUSHED FORWARD. THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE SOME ADJUSTMENT TO ACCOMMODATE PEOPLE WITH DIFFERENT BODY TYPES. I'M A MALE, 5' 9" AND ABOUT 160 LBS. *TR

POWER TRAIN, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ACCELERATION DRIVING EAST ON US RTE. 50 AT ABOUT 60 MPH: VEHICLE ACCELERATED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I NEARLY RAN INTO THE CAR AHEAD OF ME. THIS CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH RADAR ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, WHICH WAS ENGAGED AT THE TIME. I TURNED OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL IN TIME TO AVOID A COLLISION. UNINTENDED ACCELERATION HAS SPORADICALLY OCCURRED, BUT IT IS USUALLY FAIRLY MILD. THIS TIME IT WAS SO POWERFUL THAT IT FELT LIKE I HAD STOMPED ON THE ACCELERATOR; THE ENGINE ROARED AND THE CAR TOOK OFF AT FULL THROTTLE. THANKFULLY I WAS TRAVELING AT THE MAX DISTANCE OF THE CRUISE CONTROL. ACCELERATION WAS NOT CAUSED BY FLOOR MATS. I WATCHED WHILE THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGER CHECKED. DECELERATION DRIVING EAST ON I-70: THE CAR AHEAD OF ME SIGNALED TO EXIT THE INTERSTATE AND TURNED SMOOTHLY ONTO THE EXIT RAMP. AS SOON AS HE WAS OUT OF MY LANE MY CAR'S CRUISE CONTROL LOCKED ON TO THE THAT OF THE EXITING CAR AND VIGOROUSLY APPLIED THE BRAKES. STEPPING ON THE ACCELERATOR DID NO GOOD. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS PULLING INTO A CONVENIENCE STORE IN MY 2014 PRIUS. AS I WAS GLIDING IN, I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE CAR KEPT GOING. I CONTINUED TO PRESS IT AND THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE, I COULD FEEL THE SURGE OF POWER. I WAS COMPLETELY UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR AND RAN INTO PARKING POSTS AT THE FRONT OF THE STORE. ALL AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED. I GOT A CUT ON MY FOREHEAD, AN AMBULANCE CAME BUT I DECLINED AND MY HUSBAND DROVE ME TO THE ER LATER WHERE I RECEIVED TREATMENT. I WAS COMING HOME FROM THE GYM AT 9 AM I HAVE NEVER BEEN AT FAULT IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE. I HAVE A WITNESS THAT SAID HE HEARD A CHIRPING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKES BEFORE I CRASHED. TOYOTA COMPLETELY DENIES THERE IS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, BUT GIVES NO EXPLANATION AS TO HOW THIS COULD HAVE OCCURRED. THEY WILL NOT HELP AT ALL. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN TOYOTA. *TR

I COULD FEEL THE SURGE OF POWER. I WAS COMPLETELY UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR AND I RAN INTO PARKING POSTS AT THE FRONT OF THE STORE. ALL AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED. I GOT A CUT ON MY FOREHEAD AND WAS BLEEDING. AN AMBULANCE ARRIVED AND MY HUSBAND DROVE ME TO THE ER AFTERWARDS AND I RECEIVED TREATMENT. I WAS COMING HOME FROM THE GYM AT 9AM IN THE MORNING. I HAVE NEVER BEEN AT FAULT IN AN AUTO ACCIDENT BEFORE. I HAVE A WITNESS THAT SAID HE HEARD A CHIRPING SOUND COMING FROM MY BRAKES RIGHT BEFORE THE CRASH. I HAVE THE PIN DRIVE FROM THE CAR THAT A REPRESENTATIVE, SUPPOSEDLY FROM AN OUTSIDE SOURCE, THAT RETRIEVED IT. THIS IS WHAT TOYOTA USED TO CONDUCT THEIR "INVESTIGATION" INTO THE INCIDENT. THEY CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS COMPLETELY NOT THEIR FAULT, NOT INDICATING HOW IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. THEY ARE NOT GOING TO HELP AT ALL. SOMEONE OTHER THAN TOYOTA NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE GETS KILLED. ( I FILED A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT THIS MORNING BUT REALIZED I HAD ENTERED THE VIN NUMBER WRONG. THIS IS THE SAME COMPLAINT WITH THE CORRECT VIN NUMBER. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES
WE HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2014 TOYOTA PRISM THAT NOW HAS LESS THAN 4000 MILES ON THE ENGINE. IN A VERY SHORT PERIOD WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A MASS AMOUNTS OF DEFECTS WITH THE CAR. THE FIRST REPAIR WAS TOYOTA HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY FROM OUR HOME. THE SECOND WAS A RECALL DEALING WITH A NATIONAL RECALL WITH SOFTWARE UPDATES. ON JULY 16TH THE YELLOW LIGHT CAME ON AS SOON AS WE STARTED TO DRIVE THE CAR. IT WAS THE BRAKE INDICATOR AND THEY ASKED MY WIFE TO DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 25 MILES AWAY? I CALLED INTO QUALITY IMPORTS TOYOTA IN FT. WALTON BCH , FLORIDA WHERE WE PURCHASED THE CAR AND VENTED MY FRUSTRATIONS. I WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THEM ASKING US TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH A BRAKE LIGHT INDICATOR THAT JUST CAME ON. WE ARE FEARFUL OF THE NEXT FAILURE WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURE GAVE ME A CLAIM NUMBER 1407161970 TO START THE PROCESS OF THE COMPLAINT. I GOT A CALL FROM THE TOYOTA CASE MANAGER [XXX] WHO BASICALLY SAID WE HAVE TO FILL OUT A LOT OF FORMS FOR THE LEMON LAW AND ARBITRATION PROCESS. BASICALLY WE WERE ASKED TO DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL 30-40 DAYS LATER FOR THE PROCESS. I TOLD [XXX] WE DON'T FEEL SAFE IN THE CAR AND THAT THEY SHOULD LET US USE A LOANER. HE DENIED THE REQUEST?? REQUEST TO HAVE THIS INVESTIGATED. 'INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *TR

VISIBILITY/WIPER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
POINT SOURCES OF LIGHT (I.E. BRAKE LIGHTS, HEADLIGHTS, TRAFFIC LIGHTS, ETC.) AT NIGHT TIME AND TO A LESS VISIBLE EXTENT IN THE DAY TIME ARE DUPLICATED OR TRIPLICATED AT DISTANCES THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. AS THE LIGHT SOURCE IS CLOSER TO THE CAR, THE GHOSTING EFFECT DIMINISHES. THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN LOOKING OUT THE SIDE WINDOWS OR REAR WINDSHIELD, BUT ONLY OCCURS THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. THIS PRISM EFFECT INDUCES NAUSEA AND IS INCREDIBLY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM
I PURCHASED A 2014 TOYOTA PRIUS ON MAY 31, 2014. TODAY 6/18/14 I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS MODEL VEHICLE. I CALLED TOYOTA AND I WAS INFORMED THE RECALL SERVICE HAD NOT BEEN PERFORMED. I CALLED A LOCAL DEALER (DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT WHEN THEY PULLED THE VIN, IT SHOWED STOP SALE IN EFFECT. I DO NOT BLAME TOYOTA AS OBVIOUSLY IF ONE DEALER COULD SEE THE STOP SALE SO COULD THE OTHER. I THINK THAT THERE SHOULD BE STRICTER REGULATIONS ON DEALERSHIPS TO MAKE SURE THESE RECALLS ARE COMPLETED BEFORE THE SALE!! JUST LIKE THE GENTLEMAN THAT COMPLAINED EARLIER I ALSO PURCHASED A BRAND NEW DEFECTIVE VEHICLE, HOW CAN THIS HAPPEN SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER THE RECALL. !! NOW I HAVE TO TAKE THE TIME OFF TO TAKE IT IN TO HAVE THE RECALL FIXED. THIS IS A MAJOR INCONVENIENCE, LOSS OF USE OF VEHICLE AND LOSS OF TIME FROM WORK. I ALSO WANT TO KNOW HOW TO GET COMPENSATED FOR THE INCONVENIENCE AND TIME, PLUS THE FACT THEY SOLD AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING AN UNSAFE VEHICLE. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS I ATTEMPTED TO NAVIGATE A RIGHT HAND TURN. THE CAR BEGAN TO SLIDE WHILE BRAKING INDICATING POSSIBLE SNOW BUILDUP IN FRONT OF TIRES. I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE OUT OF THE SLIDE WHICH IS PROPER IN FRONT WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLES. THE CARS DASH LIGHTS LITE UP AND THE SLIDE INDICATOR STARTED BEEPING. THE CAR BECAME COMPLETELY UNRESPONSIVE TO THE GAS PROVIDING NO POWER WHATSOEVER. THE CAR SLID OVER THE CURB AND CRASHED INTO A HIGHWAY SIGN AND FINALLY CAME TO REST. *TR
