TOYOTA 20" ALLOY WHEEL Complaints

I PURCHASED MY 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY IN JUN 2009(USED) WITH ABOUT 6000 MILES. AFTER THE FIRST WEEK THE CLIP FROM THE CARPET SNAPPED OUT, AND I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA FOR THE FIRST CARPET RECALL, THEN I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA FOR THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION RECALL WITH THE GAS PEDAL, THIS FRIDAY I AM RETURNING IT, FOR THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION DUE TO SOME ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT TOYOTA IS UNSURE OF. I'VE BEEN PAYING CAR NOTES AND HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TRY MY CAR, FOR FEAR OF SUDDEN ACCELERATION NOT DUE TO MYSELF.

INCIDENT WITH MY 2005 TOYOTA PRIUS I'VE HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY BRAKING SYSTEM AND WENT TO GREAT LENGTHS TO GET MY CAR REPAIRED. I HAVE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP DOCUMENTATION OF WHAT WAS DONE TO MY CAR TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS IN THEIR SHOP FOR 2 MONTHS AND IT TOOK 2 DEALERSHIPS TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT MY EXPERIENCE FOR YOUR INVESTIGATION, I'LL BE HAPPY TO COOPERATE TO THE BEST OF MY ABILITY. *TR

IN OCTOBER 2009 I BOUGHT A NEW 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA FROM SANSONE ROUTE 1 TOYOTA IN AVENEL NEW JERSEY. FEBRUARY 22 2010 I BROUGHT THE COROLLA TO THIS DEALERSHIP FOR A FIX RELATED TO THE ACCELERATION RECALL. I ALSO FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THEM ABOUT THE POWER STEERING. AFTER 90 MINUTES THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE POWER STEERING.THEY GAVE ME THIS IN WRITING. THEY ALSO WROTE THAT THEY FIXED THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR AND 4 MINUTES LATER I HIT ANOTHER CAR BECAUSE THE ACCELERATION INCREASED BY ITSELF. THE CAR IS BEING REPAIRED BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY. TOYOTA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE 8600 DOLLARS OF REPAIRS . I AM INJURED . IS TOYOTA RESPONSIBLE? MY PHONE NUMBER IS [XXX]. PLEASE CONTACT ME AND TELL ME WHAT TO DO. I TRIED TO REACH TOYOTA S 800 NUMBER BUT SO FAR I HAVE WAITED 3 HOURS AND NOBODY ANSWERS. THANK YOU. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I TOOK MY 2007 TUNDRA FOR A MODIFICATION OF THE PEDAL TO TOYOTA. ON THE DATE BELOW. I AM CONCERN ABOUT THE WAY THE PEDAL IS WORKING. EVERY TIME THE TRUCK BOUNCES OR HITS A BUMP, MY TRUCK ACCELERATES, BECAUSE OF THE SENSITIVITY OF THE PEDAL. IT DID NOT DO THAT BEFORE. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF TAKING IT BACK. AS SOON AS I CAN TAKE SOME TIME OFF OF WORK AGAIN. I JUST THOUGHT YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW HOW THE MODIFICATION IS WORKING ON MY TUNDRA. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT A 2009 PRIUS & THERE ARE SO MANY ISSUES WITH UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION & VEHICLE NOT GOING INTO PARK OR REVERSE JUST STOPS IN NEUTRAL, I WAS AT A HEB SORE TRYING TO PARK, ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR SPED UP AN HIT A POLE IN FRONT OF ME, I WAS TRYING TO PARK, WITH MY FOOT ON BREAK, SO AS TO SLOW DOWN, YESTERDAY I HAD MY WIFE DRIVE THE PRIUS & THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED WOULD NOT GO INTO REVERSE OR DRIVE, THAT WAS VERY DANGEROUS THEN THEY PULL INTO A TARGET PARKING LOT I HAD TO DRIVE OUT THERE TO MEET THEM, IT TOOK ALMOST 1HR & 3MINS TO GET THE CAR IN REVERSE, OFF COURSE I CALLED MY TOYOTA SALES GUY THIS BEING THE THIRD TIME I HAVE REPORTED THIS INCIDENT & THE KEEP DOWN PLAYING IT SAYING THERE IS NOTHING WRONG, NOT REALLY LOOKING INTO IT. *TR

IN MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA XLE WITH 2382 MILES ON IT, I EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE AND DIFFICULTY STEERING WHILE DESCENDING DOWN A SLIGHT GRADE. THERE WAS NO BRAKING ACTION WHEN I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AS FAR AS IT COULD GO. SIMULTANEOUSLY HEARD A LOUD SCRAPING SOUND AND DETECTED AN ODOR. REPORTED INCIDENT TO THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY. *TR

I DISCOVERED APPROXIMATELY 15 MONTHS AND 18000 MILES AFTER TAKING DELIVERY OF MY NEW, 2009 TOYOTA/SCION XB VEHICLE, THAT THE "TIRE PLACARD" INFORMATION WAS INCORRECT (SHOWING 35PSI FRONT AND 32PSI REAR). IT SHOULD HAVE SHOWED 39PSI FRONT AND 37PSI REAR. I'VE BEEN DRIVING THIS WHOLE TIME WITH GROSSLY UNDERINFLATED TIRES RESULTING IN EXTREMELY UNEVEN WEAR. THE SAFETY ISSUE GOES WITHOUT SAYING...IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT A FEDERAL LAW/REGULATION REQUIRES THE SELLER OF NEW VEHICLES IN THE U.S. TO PUT PROPER TIRE PLACARD INFORMATION ON THE VEHICLE. TOYOTA/SCION CUSTOMER SERVICE SAYS THE DEALER WAS NEGLIGENT AND THE DEALER SAYS THEY HAVE NEVER PUT A CORRECT/REPLACEMENT PLACARD ON A NEW VEHICLE. ALSO, A RIM HAD TO BE REPLACED (AT MY EXPENSE) AFTER RUNNING OVER A SMALL POTHOLE SEVERAL MONTHS AGO...I CONTEND THAT HAD THE TIRE INFLATION INFORMATION BEEN CORRECT, THE DAMAGE WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN DONE AND I WOULDN'T BE OUT ~$600 TO REPLACE RIM. *TR

I OWN A 2006 TOYOTA AVALON. BEFORE THE RECALLS THERE WAS ONLY TWO OCCASIONS WHERE MY VEHICLE ACCELERATION MALFUNCTIONED SLIGHTLY. ON THURSDAY FEBRUARY 25, 2010 I HAD THE RECALL REPAIRS COMPLETED, AND NOW MY VEHICLE ACCELERATION MALFUNCTIONS EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER CAR MOVING UP AT A STOP SIGN BECAUSE MY VEHICLE TOOK OFF WHEN I PRESSED SLIGHTLY ON THE PEDAL. THE BRAKES ARE NOW MALFUNCTIONING, WHERE IT DOESN'T STOP UPON PRESSING THE BRAKES. *TR

I HAVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. DEC.24 2009 WAS A REPORT OF THE FIRST FAILURE. I WAS DRIVING OUT OF A RESIDENTIAL PARKING LOT AND APPLIED MY BRAKES BEFORE I APPROACHED THE STREET AND MY CAR ENDED UP ACCELERATING HITTING THE PASSENGER DOOR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. MOREOVER IF I DRIVE OVER A BUMPY SURFACE OR POT HOLE MY PEDALS START TO KICK BACK OR VIBRATE. DON'T KNOW WHAT TO CALL IT. ALSO I HAVE 2 RECALLS FOR MY VEHICLE ACCORDING TO TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER. AFTER FIXING MY RECALL I NOW HAVE A NEW PROBLEM WITH MY CAR. IT MAKES SQUEAK SOUNDS AND SQUEALS AS I APPLY MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER ON MAR.2 AND THEY TOLD ME AFTER WAITING 2 HOURS THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR AND PUT ON MY SERVICE RECEIPT AS "NORMAL NOISE". ALSO REGARDING THE ACCIDENT A TOYOTA INSPECTOR FROM CORPORATE INSPECTED MY CAR BEFORE MY RECALL WAS FIXED AND DESPITE THE TWO RECALLS SAID THAT MY VEHICLE HAS NO PROBLEMS AND THE ACCIDENT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. I NOW DRIVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA THAT SQUEALS AND SQUEAKS EVERY DAY AND MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS FIGHTING PROPERTY DAMAGE AND BODILY INJURY CLAIMS FROM THE DRIVER I STRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND EVERYTHING APPEARS TO BE MY FAULT AND NOT TOYOTA. IM IN SUCH DISTRESS WITH TOYOTA I DON'T KNOW WHAT MORE TO DO. I GAVE THEM CHANCE AFTER CHANCE TO HELP ME BUT ITS JUST GETTING WORSE. THIS IS MY FIRST NEW CAR AND ALSO MY FIRST ACCIDENT I EVER HAD. IM SCARED THAT I HAVE TO PAY 20,000 FOR THE NEXT FIVE YEARS FOR A DEFECTED CAR. PLEASE HELP! *TR

THE VSC TRACK AND ENGINE LIGHTS CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME AT EXACTLY 108,000 MILES. THIS HAS BEEN A VERY RELIABLE VEHICLE EXCEPT WHEN IT SEEMS THE COMPUTER PARTS ARE PROGRAMMED TO FAIL. I USE TO COMMUTE IN HEAVY SLOW TRAFFIC IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA WHEN MY BRAKE LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHEN USING THE BRAKES IN TRAFFIC. THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM.. THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL GO OFF AFTER THE KEY IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN HOWEVER THE VSC/TRACK LIGHT STILL ON APPEAR T BE A COMPUTER DEFECT. I SEE MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS COULD LEAD TO VEHICLE TIPPING BIG PROBLEM MAYBE THIS ISSUE IS RELATED TO TOYOTAS VEHICLES SUPER ACCELERATING JUST A THOUGHT! *TR
