  I HAVE DIFFICULTY WHEN LOCKING/UNLOCKING MY VEHICLE WITH MY REMOTE KEY FOB AND MAIN LOOK SYSTEM FROM ALL DOORS OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN THE LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTON IS PUSHED ON THE VEHICLE'S TWO FRONT DOORS THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR DOES NOT LOCK WITH THE OTHER DOORS ON THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR IS THE ONLY DOOR THAT MALFUNCTIONS ALL OTHER DOORS OPERATE EFFICIENTLY. THIS LOCKING MALFUNCTION OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED. THE DRIVER'S DOOR CAN BE LOCKED MANUALLY BY PUSHING THE LOCK INWARDS OR USING THE CAR KEY TO MANUALLY LOCK/UNLOCK THE DOOR. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS THE VEHICLE'S LOCKING SYSTEM IS A PRIMARY CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE'S OWNER, AND THE OWNER'S PROPERTY INSIDE THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE IS APPROXIMATELY 4 YEARS OLD. I HAVE ALSO SPOKEN WITH OTHER TOYOTA COROLLA OWNERS (INCLUDING YEAR MODELS OF 2014 AND 2015) WHO COMPLAIN OF THE SAME ISSUES.

THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED BY THE TREE AND THE WALL THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

  Radio is in constant reboot for months. It’s very unsafe seeing as the radio screen itself is VERY BRIGHT. It is distracting, bright, and it feels unsafe driving at night with what feels like a flashlight being shined in your face over and over again. Toyota dealers will not fix the issue without paying 1,000$ dollar for the same radio just to do the same thing. There were no warning signs, & it also doesn’t allow usb ports to work. This seems to be a common problem in most toyotas not just corolla's.

  I HAVE A 2014 COROLLA AND OUT OF THE BLUE WITH IN THE LAST FEW DAYS MY ENTIRE SCREEN FOR MY AUDIO AND NAVIGATION WENT BLANK ON MY CAR. IT GOES BETWEEN RUNNING A PROCESS AND THEN BACK TO A BLACK SCREEN. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT'S VERY DISTRACTING FOR ONE, AND FOR TWO I GOT THE UPGRADED NAVIGATION SO I HAD HANDS FREE. I'M VERY DISSATISFIED AND WHEN LOOKING IT UP HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. I HAVE BEEN AN AVID TOYOTA VEHICLE OWNER AND FOR THE MOST PART BEEN HAPPY WITH THE VEHICLES. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT IS LOOKING INTO ANY POTENTIALLY RECALLED FOR THEM TO UPDATE THIS SYSTEMS THIS ISN'T SOMETHING THAT I DID OR ANYONE ELSE I'VE SEEN POSTING COMMENTS ON IT. TO KEEP LOYAL CUSTOMERS YOU HAVE TO HAVE GOOD SOLID PRODUCTS, SEEMS THAT AROUND 70,000 MILES SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. JUST AROUND THE TIME YOUR WARRANTY IS UP. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS FOR THE INTEGRITY OF YOUR TOYOTA NAME AND SAFETY FOR THOSE WHO OWN THIS MAKE AND MODEL.

• 12/03/2022· UNKNOWN OR OTHER,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

  On 11/30/2022 The CHECK light came on. After checking my Toyota manual it showed several reasons for the light. I called the Toyota Dealer (Bryan Easler, Hendersonville, NC) made an appointment for general service and inspection as to why the warning light came on. Was told the warning light was result of rodents chewing through the gas line causing fuel leak. This also happened about three years ago. Because the fuel system is all one piece it couldn't be repaired. I had to pay for a whole new fuel line system, second time I have had to pay for a whole new fuel system. There is no Toyota dealer my my area so I have to travel about forty miles for service. I am a very elderly half cripple woman long distance driving is tiring and dangerous for me, driving with a leaking gas line is dangerous for anyone. This is the second time I've dealt with this problem. There is something seriously wrong with a fuel line being exposed so animals can chew through it. It means I may have to replace it every time a rodent decides to dine on the fuel line. Where can I park and feel safe my gas line won't be destroyed? Not to mention all the other dangers a leaking fuel line can cause. It makes no sense why Toyota would manufacture such a disaster on any car.

WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING, INTERSECTION ACCELLORATION CAR REVS AND SLOWS DOWN. ADVISED THE CVT TRANS NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT 5500.00. CAR IS AT 55,000 MILES AND IS APPARENTLY OVER THE 5 YEAR FACTORY WARRANTEE BY 6 DAYS AT TIME IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE. ISSUE ONLY STARTED HAPPENING IN OCTOBER 2018, 1 MONTH BEFORE THE FACTORY WARRANTEE RAN OUT. I WAS OUT OF TOWN FOR 10 DAYS AND BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE UPON MY RETURN AND WAS ADVISED THE CVT TRANS NEEDED REPLACING BEFORE THEY WOULD DO A RECALL. PICKED CAR UP AND IT WAS 500 TIMES WORSE THAN WHEN I DROPPED IT OFF 4 DAYS EARLIER. I HAVE OWNED MORE THAN 2 TOYOTAS AND NEVER HAD AN ISSUE. I AM MORE THAN UNHAPPY WITH THIS SITUATION AND FEE THE 5 YEAR/60,000 MILE FACTORY WARRANTEE SHOULD BE HONORED.

• 12/03/2014· ENGINE

  MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I ALSO NOTICE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO SLOW DOWN, THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE. THE ENGINE WOULD SEEM TO STALL ALMOST LIKE A DEAD SPOT. THEN WHEN DEPRESSING THE GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES THE ENGINE WOULD CATCH AND JUMP FORWARD. ALMOST HITTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US. THIS CAR ACCELERATES AT TIMES WHEN BRAKING AND HESITATES WHEN PRESSING ON THE GAS. I ALSO NOTICED WHEN I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT, THE CAR MOVED BACKWARDS AFTER TAKING MY FEET OFF THE BRAKES. IT COULD'VE HIT THE CAR IN BACK OF US. I ASKED THE SALE LADY, IF THIS CAR WAS APART OF THE RECALL AND SHE TOLD ME THAT IF IT WAS THE DEALERSHIP WOULD HAVE TO FIX IT BEFORE THEY SOLD IT. I HAD THE CAR FOR LESS THAN 2 WEEKS. I HOPE THIS CAR DOESN'T CAUSE MY FAMILY AND SOMEONE ELSE'S FAMILY HARM. BIG SAFETY ISSUE! BIG SAFETY ISSUE! *JS

  REGARDING A 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA S WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION: THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 24,000 MILES AND THE CLUTCH WAS WORN OFF SUBSTANTIALLY. I HAVE OVER 30 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE DRIVING VEHICLES WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS (USED AND NEW) AND I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE LEASE, I NOTICED THAT THE CLUTCH PEDAL SAT HIGHER THAN I AM USED TO. MOREOVER, THE TRANSMISSION KICKED A BIT IF I RELEASED THE CLUTCH AT THE SPEED THAT I AM USED TO. I INFORMED THIS TO THE TECHNICIAN'S AT THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY SAID THAT THESE BEHAVIORS WERE BY DESIGN AND THAT THE CLUTCH COULD NOT BE ADJUSTED BECAUSE IT IS A HYDRAULIC SYSTEM. AGAIN, THIS EVENT IS VERY STRANGE AND BASED ON MY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE WITH NUMEROUS MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES, I AM LEAD TO CONCLUDE THAT THE CLUTCH SYSTEM FOR THIS VEHICLE IS POORLY DESIGNED/MANUFACTURED/ASSEMBLED. *TR

I TRIED IN VAIN TO STOP MY CAR, I KEPT PRESSING DOWN ON MY BRAKE, (5 TIMES) WITH NO SUCCESS. I FINALLY PUT MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION INTO PARK AND IT FINALLY CAME TO A STOP. I WAS EXTREMELY SHAKEN UP SINCE I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO DIE! I CHECKED MY CAR FOR DAMAGES, I NOTICED THAT MY PASSENGER SIDE VIEW MIRROR WAS DAMAGED AND THERE WAS OTHER DAMAGE UNDER MY CAR. MY CAR IS ONLY 3 MONTHS OLD AND HAS 950 MILES ON IT. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 30 YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED ANYTHING LIKE THIS.

• 11/25/2016· SEATSCrash

  VEHICLE FEATURES "WHIPLASH INJURY LESSENING" ("WIL") SEATS. I ARGUE THESE SEATS LED TO DRAMATICALLY SEVERE INJURIES. THE LITERATURE PUBLISHED BY TOYOTA IN CONNECTION WITH THE ALLEGED SAFETY OF THE SEATS IMPLICITLY STATES THAT BENEFITS INURE TO THOSE IN LOWER-SPEED REAR-END COLLISIONS. NO STUDY SEEMS TO INDICATE SEVERITY OF HIGHER-SPEED REAR-END COLLISIONS. SPECIFICALLY, WHETHER OR NOT WIL SEATS ACTUALLY BENEFIT LOW-SPEED REAR-END COLLISION INJURIES WHILE WORSENING HIGH-SPEED REAR-END COLLISION INJURIES. I HYPOTHESIZE THAT THEY WORSEN HIGH-SPEED REAR-END COLLISION INJURIES, GREATLY. I WAS IN A REAR-END COLLISION INVOLVING A VEHICLE HITTING THE TOYOTA COROLLA WITH WIL SEATS I WAS DRIVING AT OR ABOVE 75 MPH. I SUFFERED 7+ SLIPPED DISCS ALONG SPINE, AS WELL AS A FRACTURED VERTEBRAE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AS IT WAS STRUCK FROM THE REAR, AND THE VEHICLE I WAS DRIVING WAS MOVING AT OR ABOUT 75MPH. THE VEHICLE COLLIDING WITH MY VEHICLE WAS DRIVING 75+ MPH.

  THE CAR SOMETIMES HAS A HESITATION PROBLEM FROM A DEAD STOP; ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN. THIS CREATES A SCARY SITUATION DUE TO I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN SO I HAVE TO WAIT QUITE AWHILE FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC TO SPREAD OUT MUCH FURTHER THEN NORMAL (ABOUT 50 CAR LENGTHS) SOMETIMES THIS IS NOT PRACTICAL SO I HAVE TO CHANCE IT & HOPE NOT TO GET BROADSIDED. THE DEALERSHIP IS OF NO HELP & I DOUBT IF THEY HAVE WRITTEN IT DOWN THE 2 TIMES I REPORTED IT. THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED OVER 50 TIMES OVER THE LAST 21 MONTHS & STARTED IN MONTH # 1. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT TOYOTA HAD A NEW STYLE TRANSMISSION & THAT MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM BUT THAT IS DOUBTFUL BECAUSE THE ENGINE RPM'S DON'T COME UP. THE SYMPTOMS APPEAR TO BE A FUEL STARVING PROBLEM.

• 11/21/2017· VISIBILITY/WIPER

I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THEY STATED MY VEHICLE WAS NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL FOR THE SHORT IN THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SWITCH. THIS CAUSES A VISIBILITY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN. THE WIPERS STOP COMPLETELY WHEN SWITCHING FROM SLOW TO FAST SPEED SO I CAN ONLY USE THE LOW SPEEDS WHICH DOES NOT HELP MUCH DURING STORMS.

• 11/20/2017· VISIBILITY/WIPER

  SEVERAL TIMES I CAME TOO CLOSE TO HITTING A CAR ON MY RIGHT SIDE THAT I COULD BARELY SEE BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE CAR IS MADE. THE BACK HALF OF THE CAR'S ROOF IS HELD UP BY TWO "POSTS" (I DON'T KNOW THEIR REAL NAME). THESE ARE WIDE ENOUGH THAT THEY BLOCK A LOT OF MY VISION WHEN I AM TRYING TO DECIDE IF IT IS SAFE TO CHANGE INTO THE LANE ON MY RIGHT. WHEN THIS IS COMBINED WITH THE RIGHT, REAR HEADREST, IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE A CAR IF HE IS IN THAT HUGE BLINDSPOT. THIS DESIGN IS VERY DANGEROUS.

  The AC compressor is failing as it’s blowing hot air at idle or when the vehicle is running at 20-40mph. During Texas hot summers, baby & toddlers are at risk for extreme heat as the AC blows hot/warm air. The problem has been reproduce at an automotive AC shop where they have inspected the AC for leaks, vacuumed refrigerant and replaced refrigerant. Still same issues without any leaks. Police or insurance has not been involved. There are no dash lights when this happens and the issue happens daily which started 3 years ago. The vehicle is driven less because of the issue. There is a TSB T-SB-0086-14 that says this is covered within 36k mile warranty or 3 years. I bought the vehicle with 48K miles and about 2 years later the AC blows hot air at idle.

  I was in a car accident .A woman failed to yield at a stop sign and rammed into the front of my car at a high accelerated speed. I was restrained but the right side of my forehead hit the rearview mirror .causing two huge knots on my head. My eye glasses also smashed into my right eye and I had a cut above my eye .I was thrown to the right passenger seat area , my right hip hit the gear shift and my knees and hip , were bruised. Apparently the seatbelt failed as well , but my main complaint is that the airbags failed to deploy. I suffered damage strain and bruising to both hands, the left was worse , I was made to wear a brace . I was taken to the ER via ambulance . One of the officers assumed I wasn’t wearing a seatbelt , which was not true at all . He thought I hit the windshield but I did not , it was the mirror . I have proof , photos and all EMT and ER records report that I was restrained . A paramedic helped me remove the seatbelt to exit my car . I feel I wouldn't have suffered the head, eye and other injuries if the airbag had deployed.
