2013 TOYOTA COROLLA Complaints

I WAS DRIVING MY DAUGHTER AND HER 2 FRIENDS TO GWINNETT FAIRGROUND TODAY AROUND 7:50 PM . AS I APPROACHED A TURNING LANE JUST BEFORE DAVIS ROAD, THE CAR ACCELERATED AND HIT THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME. I TRIED TO HIT THE BRAKE BUT THE SPEED WAS TOO MUCH AND THE CAR WOULDN'T STOP UNTIL IT HIT THE TRUCK. THANKFULLY, EVERYONE IN THE CAR WAS FINE AND WE ALIGHTED THE CAR WITHOUT ANY INJURY. AS A RESULT, THE ENTIRE FRONT BUMPER, THE FRONT OF THE CARE WAS DAMAGED WHICH AFFECTED THE DRIVER SIDE FRONT SIDE OF THE DOOR. TOYOTA CORPORATION NEED TO RECALL 2013 TOYOTA FOR ENGINE PROBLEM RELATED TO UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. *TR

WHEN ACCELERATING TO PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE THE ENGINE MISFIRED AND I HAD NO POWER TO CONTINUE PASSING THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS BEEN FIXED SEVERAL TIMES AT THE DEALER BUT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. *TR

ON WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 2014 I WAS DRIVING ON I-5 SOUTH BOUND, JUST BEFORE CANNON ROAD EXIT. TRAFFIC WAS GOING AT 35-40 MPH, HOWEVER, AT TIMES COMING TO COMPLETE STOPS. TRAFFIC WAS VERY SLOW AHEAD SO I BRAKE AND CAME NEAR A COMPLETE STOP. I LOOKED IN THE REARVIEW MIRROR AND NOTICED THE CAR BEHIND ME APPROACHING AT A VERY HIGH SPEED, I WAS CONSTRAINED ON BOTH SIDES AND UNABLE TO MOVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THE CAR REAR-ENDED ME AT A HIGH SPEED AND WITHIN SECONDS PUSHED ME AT A HIGH SPEED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, I DID BRACE FOR THE IMPACT BUT THE SEATBELT NEVER TENSIONED OR LOCKED AND NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED IN MY VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH MY FRONT END WAS IMPACTED SEVERELY. I PUT MY ARMS UP AND TWISTED MY BODY TO THE LEFT IN ORDER TO PROTECT MYSELF. I USED MY OWN BODY AS A PROTECTION. I AM CURRENTLY BEING TREATED FOR WHIPLASH AND SHOULDER PAIN DUE TO NO ACTIVE OR PASSIVE SYSTEM IN THE CAR BEING DEPLOYED. I CONSIDER THIS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AND WANT TO ENSURE IT IS ADDRESSED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE TO PREVENT OTHERS FROM HAVING TO GO THROUGH AN ACCIDENT WITH NO ACTIVE OR PASSIVE RESTRAINTS WORKING. *TR..UPDATED 12/09/15 *BF UPDATED 08/28/2017*CT

2013 TOYOTA COROLLA WANDERS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO KEEP THE VEHICLE MOVING STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD. STEERING IS OVERLY SENSITIVE AND ANY CORRECTION IN THE STEERING WHEEL RESULTS IN THE VEHICLE DRIFTING INTO THE ADJACENT LANES. THIS STEERING ISSUE MAKES THE CAR UNSAFE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE ALIGNMENT ON THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED AND IS ALL WITHIN TOLERANCES. THE TIRES ARE IN GOOD CONDITION AND ARE ALL INFLATED TO THE CORRECT PRESSURE. *TR

WAS TRYING TO REVERSE AND ALL OF SUDDEN THE CAR JUST TURNS OFF ..DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THE ACCELERATOR IS TAKING FOR EVER TO PICK UP THIS ALL STARED FROM THE DAY I BOUGHT IT I CALL IN RIGHT AWAY AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR BACK. *TR

TOYOTA COROLLA WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROX. 30 TO 35 MILES PER HOUR, WHEN ANOTHER OLDER SMALL CAR CAME THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND HIT THE COROLLA ON THE DRIVER SIDE, SMASHING IN THE DOORS AND CAUSING THE COROLLA TO SPIN AROUND THE INTERSECTION AND FACE THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. SIDE DOORS AND QUARTER PANELS WERE DAMAGED AS WELL AS WHEELS, PLUS REAR AXLE ASSEMBLY WAS BROKEN CAUSING THE REAR PASSENGER WHEEL TO BE BENT AT AN ANGLE. THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO BE DRIVEN FROM THE SCENE. AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT NO AIRBAGS WERE DEPLOYED. THE DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BY AMBULANCE TO THE HOSPITAL FOR INJURIES. MOST INJURIES TO THE HEAD, NECK, ARM, SIDE AND LEGS HEALED AFTER THREE WEEKS, ACCEPT FOR A SHOULD INJURY CAUSING DIFFICULTY IN ROTATING ARM. FURTHER MRIS AND OR SURGERY MAY BE NEEDED IF INJURY AND INFLAMMATION DOES NOT HEAL. CONCERN IS THAT AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, AND THAT NOW WITH NEW SENSORS BEING ADDED DURING THE $10,000 REPAIR JOB, CONCERN IS THAT THE AIRBAGS THEMSELVES WERE DEFECTIVE. *TR
