THIS CAR PULLS TO THE LAFT SO HARD IT HAS BEEN A DANGER SINCE DAY ONE. NOTHING THE DEALER COULD DO CAN FIX IT. ALSO I HAVE HEARD OF NUMEROUS OTHERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AND THEY HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUTION THAT THIS PROBLEM IS A REAL THREAT. THE DEALER SAID THIS CAR CANNOT BE FIXED. *TR

WHILE TRAVELING ON ROUTE 78 WEST NEAR BETHLEHEM PA THE OIL LIGHT BEGAN TO FLICKER. WE PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO A GM DEALERSHIP. THE MECHANIC SAID THE OIL WAS LEAKING OUT THE OIL FILTER AND THERE WAS NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. NOW THE ENGINE IS MAKING A GRINDING SOUND WHEN IT IS STARTING AND OTHER SOUNDS. I'M AFRAID THAT WE WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED THE ENGINE OR THE CAR. WE HAVE 3 YEARS LEFT ON THE CAR LOAN. THE OIL AND FILTER WERE REPLACED 32,012 AT SEARS. I HAVE SAVED THE FAILED OIL FILTER. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WEST ON FLAMINGO JUST PAST THE 95 EXIT. I WAS DRIVING IN THE CENTER LANE, WAITING FOR CLEARANCE TO GET INTO THE TURN LANE. WHEN I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. I WAS ABLE TO SLAM ON THE BRAKE AND STOP IMMEDIATELY. I HAD DEALER CHECK IT OUT -- PLUS A PREVIOUS INCIDENT ON SEPT 24, 2012 AS WELL AS ANOTHER ONE ON NOVEMBER 6, 2012. TOYOTA DENIES THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM, BUT IT KEEPS HAPPENING. *JS

WHEN TURNING RIGHT INTO THE DRIVEWAY, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND HIT THE CORNER OF THE HOUSE AFTER GOING THROUGH THE GRASS. *JS

PURCHASED VEHICLE SEPT 2013 WITH APPROX 44,000 MILES ON IT. AROUND APRIL 2014 STARTED TO HEAR SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING WAS LOOSE INSIDE THE CAR. SOUNDED METALLIC. IT WAS DUE FOR SERVICE AT 50,000 MILES SO I TOOK IT IN. MENTIONED THE KNOCKING METALLIC SOUND AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE MOONROOF. I COULDN'T QUITE FIGURE HOW THEY KNOW THAT SO SOON BUT I COULDN'T LEAVE IT THAT DAY ALL DAY, JUST FOR THE SERVICE. I BROUGHT IT BACK TODAY AND THEY SAID IT WAS DEFINITELY THE MOONROOF. IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY SO IT COST ME $248 TO FIX. WHEN I CAME HOME I LOOKED IT UP ON THE TOYOTA FORUM AND, BINGO, THERE WERE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS OF VARIOUS YEARS. SO THAT'S WHY THEY KNEW WHAT IT WAS RIGHT AWAY. THERE ARE ALSO A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS HERE WITH THE SAFER.GOV SITE. *TR

THE PROBLEM WITH THE CAR IS THE SUN VISORS. FIRST THEY STARTED TO HANG LOW WOULDN'T STAY UP. ONE DAY ON MY WAY BACK HOME FROM WORK I WAS DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY, THEY JUST COMPLETELY FELL. I HAD TO HOLD THEM UP THE WHOLE ENTIRE TIME I WAS DRIVING. THEY KEPT BLOCKING MY VIEW AND THEY WERE DISTRACTING AND A SAFETY HAZARD. TOYOTA REFUSES TO FIX THEM CAUSE THEY ARE NO LONGER COVER UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

VEHICLE STRUCK HEAD ON. NO DEPLOYMENT OF ANY AIRBAGS. NO SEATBELT RETENSION. VEHICLE TOTALED. *TR
