WHEN I DRIVING WAS OKAY, IT'S ONLY 20-25 MILES SPEEDING, I WAS TRYING TO STOP AT THE SIGNAL LIGHT, THE BREAK DOESN'T WORK AND I STOPPED THE CAR WITH SIDE BREAK. IT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT.

I WAS POSITIONING THE CAR INTO A PARKING PLACE WHEN IT ACCELERATED FORWARD VERY QUICKLY. IT SEEMED TO ME THAT IT MADE TWO SPURTS, VEERING TO THE RIGHT, BEFORE CRASHING INTO AN AREA OF BUSHES AND SMALL TREES BISECTING THE GRASS STRIP THAT DIVIDED TWO AREAS OF THE PARKING LOT. I WAS NOT INJURED, AND THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. THE COST OF REPAIR WAS APPROXIMATELY $5,000. I HAVE REPAIR INVOICES ETC

TAKATA RECALL - OCTOBER 2017 AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS AVAILABLE FOR THIS MODEL.

TAKATA RECALL - OCTOBER 2017 AND STILL NO REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS AVAILABLE FOR THIS MODEL.

TAKATA RECALL MY CAR'S REPLACEMENT AIRBAGS HAVE NOT BEEN REPLACED. I HAVE CHECKED W THE LOCAL CLERMONT FLA TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE RECEIVED WARNINGS FOR OVER A YEAR IN THE MAIL. THEY TELL ME THE REPLACEMENTS ARE NOT YET AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL" THEY HAVE NOT FIXED PASSANGER AIR BAG IN TIMELY MANNER . IT HAS BEEN ALMOST TWO YEARS AND RECALL INCOMPLETE AND NOT YET AVAILABLE. DEALERS WILL NOT MAKE AN APPOINTMENT FOR VEHICLE. WE LIVE IN HOUSTON A HOT HUMID AREA, THE VEHICLE IS OLDER,BOTH PUTTING PASSENGER AT HIGHER RISK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING IN REVERSE AT 5 MPH, IT BEGAN TO ACCELERATE FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,633. UPDATED 02/12/16*LJ *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE AIRBAG LIGHT FOR THE DRIVER'S SIDE LIT UP ON THE DASHBOARD. IT HAS NEVER DONE THAT BEFORE; MY VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN TEXAS, SPENT SOME TIME IN MARYLAND DURING THE WINTER, AND NOW IT'S IN VERMONT. DURING THOSE TIMES, THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE, UNTIL NOW. I ASSUME THAT THE COLD WEATHER IN VERMONT HAS SOMETHING TO WITH IT AND MAY BE AFFECTING THE SENSORS. THE TOTAL MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE IS UNDER 36,000.

I WAS DRIVING AROUND ONE DAY WITH MY WINDOWS DOWN, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT STARTED RAINING, I WENT TO ROLL MY WINDOWS UP AND SURPRISINGLY THEY DIDN'T WORK. NONE OF THEM. WHEN I GOT BACK TO MY HOUSE AND PARKED I TRIED TO SEE IF IT WAS A FUSE PROBLEM BUT NO SUCH LUCK. THE LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTONS WOULDN'T WORK EITHER. A FEW DAYS LATER I DROVE MY CAR AGAIN AND THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP ABOUT HALF WAY UNTIL THEY FROZE UP AND DIDN'T WORK ANY MORE. NOW, WHENEVER I'M DRIVING THEY SPONTANEOUSLY DECIDE TO WORK. I CAN'T PARK ANYWHERE FOR TOO LONG BECAUSE MY WINDOWS ARE STUCK ROLLED DOWN AND ANYONE COULD BREAK INTO MY CAR. BESIDES THAT ONE TIME IT RAINED I HAVE NEVER LET MY SIDE PANELS GET WET, THE WINDOWS MALFUNCTIONED BEFORE IT HAD RAINED. IN ADDITION TO THE WINDOWS, MY TRUNK ALSO DECIDED IT WASN'T GOING TO WORK. ORIGINALLY THE LATCH HAD GOTTEN STUCK AND I'M NOT SURE HOW LONG IT HAD BEEN THAT WAY BECAUSE I DON'T OFTEN USE MY TRUNK. BUT ONE DAY, PARKED AT SAFEWAY I TRIED TO POP THE TRUNK BUT IT WAS STUCK. FINALLY I GOT MY DAD TO HELP AND WE GOT IT OPEN. HOWEVER, NOW IT REFUSES TO STAY LOCKED. IT WILL STAY CLOSED UNTIL I GO OVER A BUMP AND THEN IT POPS OPEN AND IT'S REALLY DANGEROUS BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR. I HAVE TRIED LOCKING IT WITH THE KEY BUT THAT DOESN'T WORK EITHER. THIS WAS A NEW 2012 CAR SO I WAS CONFUSED AS TO HOW I SPENT $20,000 AND GOT A DEFECTIVE CAR! IT'S PRETTY EMBARRASSING TO DRIVE IT AROUND NOT TO MENTION IT'S NOT SAFE. I HAVE HAD A FEW OF MY MECHANIC FRIENDS LOOK AT IT HOPING WE COULD FIX THE PROBLEM BY REPLACING THE FUSE BUT IT JUST DIDN'T WORK.

THIS IS JUST A REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE AIRBAG RECALL, SAFETY ISSUE, NO INCIDENT OR ACCIDENT. I SEE FROM THE NHTSA REPORT THAT MY VEHICLE IS ON THE RECALL LIST, BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN CONTACTED AND I CALLED A DEALERSHIP AND THE PERSON ACTED LIKE THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT A RECALL. I WANT TO GET MY CAR CHECKED OUT, AND I AM NOT GOING TO PAY FOR IT. HOW DO I DO THIS?

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, A TRUCK RAN THE RED LIGHT AND CRASHED INTO THE PASSENGER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN IMPOUND LOT.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 15,000.

I FOUND A CRACK ON MY CAR'S WINDSHIELD GLASS. I AM SURE THAT IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF TEMPERATURE VARIATION. NOTHING WRONG HAPPENED TO MY CAR LIKE NO ONE HIT ANYTHING OR SOMETHING FELL ON THE CAR. I THINK MANUFACTURER SHOULD CONSIDER THE TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS IN THEIR MIND WHEN THEY ARE DESIGNING ANY PARTS OF THE CAR. IN ALL MODELS LIKE ME HAS A GAP BETWEEN WINDSHIELD AND BODY OF THE CAR. IF THAT GAP IS FILLED WITH ICE IT WOULD NOT ALLOW GLASS TO EXPAND WHEN TEMPERATURE GOES UP. COMPANY SHOULD FIX THAT GAP IN ALL OF ITS MODELS AND PROVIDE NEW GLASS TO EVERYONE WHO HAS A CRACK. IF CONSUMERS HAVE FIXED ALREADY MANUFACTURER SHOULD PAY FOR THAT. *TR

IN 2015 I HAD A CAR ACCIDENT WHERE ANOTHER DRIVER CRASHED HIS CAR INTOT MY CAR'S DRIVER DOOR, IN WHICH I WAS THE DRIVER, AND THE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED.

THIS CAR WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND WAS TOTALED ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO. SO THIS CAR IS NO LONGER IN USE. PLEASE REMOVE THIS CAR FROM YOUR RECORDS.

I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE I COULD NOT STOP COMING DOWN A HILL (IT WAS SNOWING IN MASSACHUSETTS) AND I WAS HIT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE (I WAS DRIVING) IN FRONT OF THE TIRE DAMAGING EVERYTHING IN FRONT OF THE FRONT TIRES. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC WHO ASSESSED THE DAMAGE THAT THEY 100% SHOULD'VE DEPLOYED. I SUFFERED A CONCUSSION TO THE HEAD AND NECK, SHOULDER, BACK AND LEFT LEG SPASMS. I WAS DIAGNOSED AT THE HOSPITAL THE DAY AFTER THE ACCIDENT. *TR

I WAS LEAVING WORK AND DRIVING ON A CURVY ROAD GOING SLIGHTLY UPHILL. I WAS IN 3RD OR 4TH GEAR (NOT SURE AS I AM WRITING THIS HOURS LATER) AND DRIVING AT CONSTANT SPEED (AROUND 35 MPH) WHEN THE CAR BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. IT FELT AS THOUGH I WAS DRIVING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL AND HIT THE UP LEVER TO ACCELERATE. THE PEDAL FELL AWAY FROM MY FOOT AND I IMMEDIATELY PUT IN THE CLUTCH. AT THAT POINT THE RPMS SHOT UP TO OVER 6000 AND THE ENGINE RACED WILDLY. I MOVED THE SHIFTER OUT OF GEAR (WITH CLUTCH STILL IN) AND COASTED ALONG FOR WHAT WAS PROBABLY 30-60 SECONDS. AT THAT POINT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL POPPED UP AND THE WHOLE EVENT WAS OVER. I STOPPED FOR GROCERIES AND LOOKED AT THE PEDAL AND FLOOR MAT. I COULD SEE NO OBSTRUCTION AND THE MAT SEEMED TO BE WHERE IT HAD BEEN FOR WEEKS. CONTINUING ON MY WAY HOME I WAS DRIVING ON LEVEL ROAD AT ABOUT 30-35 MPH. THERE WAS A CAR MERGING IN AND I SPED UP TO GET IN FRONT OF THEM WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AGAIN I POPPED THE CLUTCH, RPMS SHOT UP, ENGINE RACING. THIS TIME I PRIED AT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WITH MY FOOT AND IT POPPED UP. THE EVENT WAS OVER IN AROUND 30 SECONDS. *TR

SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION FROM STOP. PUT CAR IN DRIVE AFTER BACKING OUT AND IT SHOT FORWARD ABOUT 25' INTO A TREE. MAJOR DAMAGE TO CAR. NO INJURIES. *TR

AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, ANOTHER VEHICLE LOST CONTROL IN FRONT OF ME AND I COLLIDED WITH IT. THE FRONT OF MY CAR IMPACTED THE DRIVER-SIDE/REAR-END OF THE OTHER VEHICLE. I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 60-65 MPH. I WAS WEARING MY SEAT BELT, BUT MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. AS A RESULT OF THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING, I HAVE PAIN, TENDERNESS, AND SORENESS ON MY CHEST, NECK, AND BACK FROM EITHER HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL OR THE SEAT BELT CROSSING MY BODY. AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE ACCIDENT, MY CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS. ....UPDATED 01/12/15*BF UPDATED 01/15/15*JB

REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER PANELS WERE STRUCK IN TWO SEPARATE ACCIDENTS ONE CAUSING HARM TO THE DRIVER. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY.

TAKATA RECALL - CAN NOT SAFELY CARRY A PASSENGER IN FRONT SEAT OF CAR.

I WAS GOING TO PARK MY CAR IN AN EMPTY PARKING SPOT, WAS JUST IN IDLE SPEED PUTTING THE CAR INTO THE PARKING SPACE WHEN ALL OF IT SUDDEN THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATING BY ITSELF. BECAUSE OF THE ACCELERATION MY CAR HIT THE CAR THAT WAS PARK IN FRONT OF ME, THE ACCELERATION WAS SO SUDDEN AND IT PICK UP ENOUGH SPEED AND FORCE TO MOVE THE PARK CAR THREE TO FIVE INCHES FROM ITS RESTING POINT. THAT IS HOW THE ACCIDENT HAPPEN. ALSO THE AIRBAGS DID NOT OPEN WHEN MY CAR HIT THE OTHER CAR. *TR

TRAVELING WEST, A DRIVER HAD CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN THE HWY AND SITTING THERE WITH TURN SIGNAL, I SLOWED DOWN THINKING SHE WAS GOING TO TURN (IT APPEARED AS THOUGH SHE WAS STILL MOVING) LOOKED AT GPS SCREEN AND LOOKED UP AGAIN TO SEE THAT I WAS GOING TO HIT THE REAR OF HER SUV. COLLISION OCCURRED WITH NO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR WEARING A SEAT BELT THE RESULTS WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE. MY VEHICLE SUSTAINED 16,000 DOLLARS WORTH OF DAMAGE AND WAS A TOTAL LOSS. UPON INSPECTION BOTH THE AIR BAG IMPACT SENSORS WERE BROKEN. THE BODY SHOP WHO LOOKED AT THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. *TR

WHILE DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON INTERSTATE I-75 HOME DURING RUSH HOUR IN THE METRO-DETROIT AREA, THE VEHICLE SPED UP IN EXCESS OF 90MPH! I ALMOST CAUSED A COLLISION. THE GAS PEDAL DID NOT REACT TO MY FOOT NOT EVEN BEING ON THE PEDAL! I BRAKED AND PUMPED THE BRAKE TO ONLY CONTROL MY SPEED. WHEN I FINALLY GOT THE VEHICLE TO PARK, THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING AT A HIGH RATE LIKE THE ENGINE WAS REACTING TO PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR SMELLED LIKE SMOKE FROM THE BRAKE PAD.

REAR SEAT BELTS MUST CROSSOVER EACH OTHER TO BUCKLE. THIS INVOLVES THE REAR SEAT BEHIND THE DRIVER AND THE MIDDLE REAR SEAT. DEALER CAN NOT REPAIR. SAYS IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT. REQUESTED LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SUBMIT A COMPLAINT TO TOYOTA CORPORATE OFFICES. TURNING THE BUCKLES OPPOSITE OF DESIGN DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. CONSEQUENTLY UNABLE TO SAFELY SEAT BELT TWO CHILDREN IN AREA BEHIND THE DRIVER AND MIDDLE REAR SEAT. *TR

I RENTED A CAR FROM PAYLESS CAR RENTAL AT THE ORLANDO AIRPORT. AFTER BEING ON THE ROAD FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES, THE CAR GOT A FLAT TIRE. WE PULLED OVER CHANGED THE TIRE AND TOOK IT TO WAL MART FOR REPAIR. THE MECHANIC AT WAL MART INFORMED US THE TIRE WAS UNREPAIRABLE. THE INSIDE OF THE TIRE AT INNER WALL DAMAGE THAT HE SAID COULDN'T HAVE BEEN DONE BY US. HE INFORMED US THAT THIS TIRE WAS DRIVEN ON FLAT MANY TIMES BEFORE. I HAVE PICTURES THAT SHOW THE INNER WALL DAMAGE AND IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE THE TIRE WAS DRY ROTTED. PAYLESS INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX. I THEN RETURNED THE CAR TO THEIR COMPANY AND HAD TO PAY FOR ONE DAY WITH THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR FOR LESS THAN A DAY (APPROX. 5 HOURS). I AM MAKING A COMPLAINT BECAUSE THEY CLEARLY DO NOT INSPECT THEIR CARS BEFORE THEY ARE RENTED OUT TO PEOPLE. I AM SO LUCKY THAT NOTHING SERIOUS HAPPENED TO US BECAUSE THAT COULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR PROBLEM IF SOMETHING HAD. THEY ARE A TERRIBLE COMPANY. I AM REQUESTING THAT YOU LOOK INTO HOW THEY INSPECT THEIR CARS BEFORE THEY ARE GIVEN OUT TO PEOPLE. I AM SURE I AM NOT THE FIRST PERSON OR THE LAST PERSON THAT WILL HAVE THIS HAPPEN TO THEM. HOW CAN A COMPANY RUN WHEN IT GIVES PAYING CUSTOMERS LEMON'S TO DRIVE. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS TRANSIT AND DOING EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS NOT IN MOTION I JUST GOT THIS CAR AND DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT'S GOING ON BUT I BELIEVE THAT IT IS VERY DEFECTIVE, AND PUTS MYSELF AND MY FAMILY IN GRAVE DANGER. *TR

WHILE WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TO CHANGE AND MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND DESPITE SHIFTING TO PARK AND PULLING ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE THE CAR CONTINUED TO REV VERY HIGH FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. JUST PRIOR TO ACCELERATION, THE CAR'S BRAKES BECAME VERY SOFT AND SUNK ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR OF THE CAR AS IF SOMEONE HAD DEPRESSED THE POWER IN THE BRAKE LINE. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND WAITED FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE ENGINE RACED AGAIN AT VERY HIGH SPEEDS WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON AND THE CAR SET AT "PARK." I TURNED THE CAR OFF AGAIN AND WAITED FIVE MINUTES. THE CAR STARTED NORMALLY AND I THEN CALLED MY WIFE TO PICK ME UP. SHE DROVE THE CAR BACK HOME AND NOTICED THE BRAKES WERE VERY MUSHY AND SHE FELT A SLIGHT ACCELERATION. WE TOOK IT TO OUR TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SINCE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR AND ASSERTED THAT I DEPRESSED BOTH THE BRAKE AND THE GAS PEDAL AT THE SAME TIME, WHICH IS UTTERLY RIDICULOUS. WE HAVE OWNED THE CAR FOR 18 MONTHS AND NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS EVER HAPPENED. THERE WERE MORE THAN FIVE WITNESSES TO THIS AS I HAD BLOCKED TRAFFIC AT THE LIGHT'S INTERSECTION WHILE OTHER CARS WENT AROUND ME WHILE THE CAR WAS RACING. I HAVE FILED AN INCIDENT REPORT WITH TOYOTA BUT IT DOES NOT LOOK AS IF ANYTHING WILL BE DONE WITH THE UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ISSUE. I AM A FORMER LAWYER AND I TAKE MY COMPLAINTS VERY SERIOUSLY. PLEASE HELP. *TR
