This page combines three types of NHTSA data: recall campaigns (official manufacturer or government actions), owner complaints (unverified consumer reports), and crash test ratings (where available). A vehicle with many complaints is not necessarily less reliable — complaint volume correlates with sales volume and vehicle age. Recalls indicate identified defects, not overall quality. To compare this model year with others, use the year navigation in the sidebar or return to the model overview page.

SO FAR THE FRONT SUSPENSION MAKES A NOISE
See attached document for complaint.
Vehicle was rear-ended on November 4, 2022. The driver was wearing a seatbelt but the driver airbag did not deploy after being rear-ended. After the accident, the dashboard airbag indicator warning light turned on. The vehicle did not show any airbag issues or warnings prior to the accident. The emergency parking brake does not properly engage after the accident.
I have been waiting since 8/26/2022 for the part to correct the recall
The contact owns a 2009 Toyota Yaris. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was smoke coming from the driver's side front door. The dealer was made aware of the failure and scheduled an appointment for a diagnostic test. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 83,000.
I HIT A SNOW BANK LEFT BEHIND BY A SNOWPLOW GOING 50 MPH AND AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. WAS ON A HIGHWAY, IN MOTION WHEN THIS OCCURRED.
I AM LOCATED IN STRASSEN, LUXEMBOURG (EUROPE) AND TAKE MY CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP (TOYOTA, 6 ZAI BOURMICHT, L8070 BERTRANGE) HERE FOR SERVICE. I AM RETURNING TO THE UNITED STATES DECEMBER 2020 AND REQUIRE ALL RECALL ISSUES TO BE ADDRESS PRIOR TO EXIT INSPECTION. UPON REQUEST TO THE LUXEMBOURG TOYOTA TO ADDRESS THE RECALL ISSUE ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR, REPRESENTATIVES STATED THEY ARE NOT OBLIGED TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE NOR NOT PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION REGARDING INABILITY TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THIS IS A REQUEST FOR ASSISTANCE IN THE FORM OF AN OFFICIAL WRITTEN REPORT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 TOYOTA YARIS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE DRIVER'S SIDE REAR AXLE FRACTURED MAKING THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE RESIDENCE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 185,000.
I NOTICED THAT MY CAR WOULD NOT BRAKE PROPERLY IF I HAPPENED TO BE BREAKING OVER AN UNEVEN SERVICE YEARS AGO. SO, I DRIVE TO AVOID HAVING TO DO SO. BUT, THEN RECENTLY IT STARTED MAKING A SQUEALING NOISE ALONG WITH BREAKING. IT COMES AND GOES. THEN, A CLUNKING NOISE STARTED WHEN REVERSING. NOW, THE CLUNKING NOISE COMES IN EITHER DIRECTION. THE SQUEALING HAS GRADUATED TO SCRATCHING AND SCRAPING WHEN I ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE. IT COMES FROM MY FRONT, PASSENGER SIDE TIRE AND WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT, IT GETS VERY LOOSE - WHEREAS TURNING ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT STILL FEELS APPROPRIATELY TIGHT. I THINK THE LOOSENESS IS CONNECTED TO THE FRONT RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL, AS IF A PIECE HAS BROKEN OR IS LOOSE - BECAUSE IT COMES AND GOES. THIS ALL HAPPENS WHEN I'M MOVING, NO MATTER WHAT TERRAIN IT IS (HIGHWAY, CITY STREET, ETC.) AND WHETHER I AM TURNING OR NOT.
I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT GOING 55 MPH IN THE PROCESS MY CAR CLIPPED A CURB AND IT SNAPPED MY AXEL CAUSING THE CAR TO GO HEAD ON INTO AN OBJECT ACROSS THE ROAD MY CAR ALSO FLIPPED NONE OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.
I WAS TRAVELING ON HWY 58 TURNING ONTO HWY99 . CONSTRUCTION HAD IT DOWN TO 1 LANE. WAS GOING APPROX. 35 MPH WHEN MY FRONT DRIVERSIDE TIRE BLEW OUT, SENT CAR IN TO A RIGHT TURNING MOTION IN TO CEMENT DIVIDERS. AIRBAG DEPLOYED BUT DID NOT AIR UP. AIRBAG CAME OUT LIKE TUBE RIGHT INTO MY CHEST. WAS TAKEN TO HOSPITAL FROM ACCIDENT. WHERE THEY CONCLUDED THAT I HAD 3 BROKEN RIBS.
THE FRONT SIDE PASSENGER AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING WELL AND ALSO THE TYRE SENSOR IS SHOWING ON THE SCREEN WHILES TYRE PRESSURE ARE IN GOOD CONDITIONS
TAKATA RECALL. CRASHED MY YARIS GOING APPROX. 30 MPH. I BROKE A BONE IN MY ARM WHEN IT HIT THE STEERING WHEEL. THE AIRBAG DIDN'T DEPLOY AND I WAS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL BY AMBULANCE
WE ARE A SMALL NONPROFIT THAT RECEIVES CAR DONATIONS AND REFURBISHES THEM FOR LOW INCOME INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES. WE RECEIVED THIS 2009 TOYOTA YARIS AS A DONATION WITH ABOUT 173K MILES ON IT. WHEN WE RECEIVED IT WE NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT SEATBACK WAS TORN IN TWO VERTICAL SPOTS. WE THOUGHT THIS TO BE THE RESULT OF THE PREVIOUS OWNER BEING OVERWEIGHT. UPON CLOSER INSPECTION WE FOUND THAT THE TWO STEEL VERTICAL SUPPORTS FOR THE SEATBACK WERE RAZOR SHARP AND WERE CUTTING THEIR WAY THROUGH THE FOAM OF THE SEAT AND THE FABRIC. IF ALL OF THE YARIS SEATS ARE BUILT THIS WAY THIS WOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE IN SEVERAL TYPES OF COLLISIONS. IN NORMAL USE A DRIVER WOULD HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IS IN THE SEATBACK WAITING TO BE FORCE THROUGH IN A COLLISION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 TOYOTA YARIS. WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A SIDE IMPACT COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE, BUT IT WAS NOT DETERMINED IF THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THERE WAS ONE INJURY THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE CONTACT SUFFERED FROM SEVERE PAIN AND COMPLICATIONS FROM A PRIOR MEDICAL PROCEDURE. IT WAS UNKNOWN IF THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000
TAKATA RECALL. ON JANUARY 12,2018 I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. A VEHICLE CUT ME OFF AND I HYDROPLANED WHEN BRAKING. THERE WERE MASSIVE STORMS OCCURRING. MY CONCERN IS THAT MY AIRBAGS NEVER DEPLOYED. I SLAMMED VERY HARD INTO THE MEDIAN RESULTING IN SOME LINGERING BACK SORENESS AND TRUTHFULLY A FEAR OF DRIVING IN THE RAIN. I RECEIVED A MAILER LAST WEEK NOTIFYING ME THAT THIS VEHICLE IS NOW PART OF AN AIRBAG RECALL. SEEN BY THE PHOTOS BELOW, THERE IS NO REASON WHY THESE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. SOMETHING WAS NOT RIGHT HERE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 TOYOTA YARIS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE DRIFTED TO THE LEFT WHILE TRAVELING 55 MPH. THE CONTACT HAD AN ALIGNMENT PERFORMED, AND THE RIMS AND TIRES CHANGED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT CALLED BYRIDER DARTMOUTH (331 STATE RD, DARTMOUTH, MA 02747, (508) 992-0000) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WOULD NEVER SELL A VEHICLE THAT WAS DAMAGED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THEY DID HOT HAVE VEHICLES WITH SALVAGE TITLES. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE VEHICLE ON CARFAX AND FOUND THAT IT HAD STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. THE DEALER REFUSED TO BUYBACK THE VEHICLE BECAUSE IT HAD STRUCTURAL DAMAGE, AND ACCUSED THE CONTACT OF ENGAGING IN A CRASH. THE CONTACT CURRENTLY REFUSED TO MAKE ANY MORE PAYMENTS ON THE VEHICLE AND DISPUTED THE CONDITION OF THE VEHICLE WITH THE DEALER. THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW THAT THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V024000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND REMAINED PARKED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 108,261. *BF *TR
"TAKATA RECALL" NOTICE WAS SENT. WHEN I TRIED TO CONTACT A DEALERSHIP THERE WAS NO LOCAL DEALERSHIP ON HAWAII TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE FIXED DUE TO THE "TAKATA RECALL" BUT NOT HAVE TO SEND MY VEHICLE TO THE CONTINENTAL US DUE TO THIS ISSUE NOT BEING MY FAULT.
TAKATA RECALL ELECTRICAL
INITIALLY THE DEALER DID NOT HAVE THE RECALL ITEM(S) IN STOCK. EVENTUALLY THE DEALER RECEIVED PARTIAL PARTS AND OTHER PART WAS BACKORDERED. FINALLY, I WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE IN TO BRING MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE RECALL WORK. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED, HOWEVER, AS SOON AS I RETURNED HOME THE AIRBAG PANEL ON THE DRIVER SIDE DETACHED FROM THE AREA COVERING THE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THEY ATTEMPTED TO CONNECT THE PANEL. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE BACK TO THEM ON TWO OCCASIONS FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND EACH TIME THEY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO PUSH THE PANEL BACK IN PLACE. THE PANEL IS NOW HANGING AGAIN EXPOSING THE AIRBAG ASSEMBLY ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I'M AFRAID THE AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY WITH THE PARTS BEING EXPOSED. I THINK THE DEALER BROKE SOMETHING THAT KEEPS THE PANEL IN PLACE AND IS NOT DOING WHAT REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE TO ASSURE MY SAFETY...I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO ABOUT THIS OTHER THAN CONTACTING YOU GUYS AND PERHAPS THE TOYOTA ZONE OFFICE. WHAT IS YOUR SUGGESTION? I HAVE BEEN PUSHING IT BACK IN PLACE OFTEN MYSELF SINCE THAT TIME AND NOW IT JUST WILL NOT STAY IN PLACE.
