2010 TOYOTA COROLLA Complaints

TAKATA RECALL: I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL IN JUNE OF 2016. THE TEMPORARY REMEDY WAS TO NOT ALLOW ANY PASSENGERS TO RIDE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT UNTIL THE AIRBAG HAD BEEN REPLACED. I LEARNED OF THE AVAILABILITY OF THE REPLACEMENT PARTS IN JUNE OF 2017 WHEN I CALLED FOR A THIRD TIME TO PURSUE THE REMEDY. IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE PARTS HAD BECOME AVAILABLE IN MAY OF 2017, AND I WAS NOTIFIED OF THE REMEDY BY TOYOTA IN JULY OF 2017. A FULL CALENDAR YEAR IS AN UNACCEPTABLE DELAY FOR A SAFETY RECALL, AND EXPECTING TOYOTA OWNERS TO NOT USE THEIR FRONT PASSENGER SEATS FOR A YEAR IS RIDICULOUS. I AM AWARE OF OTHER CAR COMPANIES THAT SENT A SIMILAR RECALL NOTICE AND OFFERED THE REMEDY WITHIN TWO WEEKS. I HAVE NOW HAD THE SERVICE COMPLETED.

TAKATA RECALL MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED MAY 24,2016 AT THAT TIME IT WAS ADVISED THAT WE NOT USE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AS A SAFETY PRECAUTION IT TOOK OVER A YEAR TO GET THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. WE HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO UTILIZE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT FOR OVER A YEAR SO WHEN WE TRAVELED WITH MORE THAN 3 PEOPLE IN THE CAR WE HAD TO TAKE ANOTHER VEHICLE. I EVENTUALLY GOT MY GRANDCHILDREN FOR THE SUMMER AND ON THEN WAS I TOLD I COULD GET A LOANER VEHICLE SO IN MAY OF 2017 I WAS PROVIDED A LOANER VEHICLE AND MY PARTS CAME IN 2 WEEKS LATER. THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE IT WAS AN INCONVENIENCE AND I FEEL THERE SHOULD BE COMPENSATION FOR THAT.

WHILE DRIVING ON A STREET NAMED HAMNER THIS AFTERNOON ON A WARM DAY IN THE CITY OF NORCO WITH CLEAR SKIES TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 15 MPH MY 2010 COROLLA DID NOT STOP AT A DISTANCE OF ABOUT 15 FEET WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THAT CAUSED ME TO HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE WHICH FELT LIKE THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM WHERE THE BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE BUT RATHER MADE A PULSATING MOVEMENT AGAINST MY ROTORS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO KEEP MOVING AND INEVITABLY I COULD NOT STOP MY VEHICLE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS I HAVE BROUGHT THIS ISSUE UP TO TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENTS AT NUMEROUS DEALERS IN THE PAST YEARS AND I WAS GIVEN NO SOLUTIONS. THE EXPLANATION AFTER SHOWING THE TECHNICIANS WAS THAT IT WAS NORMAL AND SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM. THIS BRAKE ISSUE CAUSED ME TO NOT HAVE BRAKING SYSTEM POWER TO SAFELY COME TO A STOP PRIOR TO THE COLLISION TODAY. I BELIEVE THAT TOYOTA IS LIABLE FOR THE FAILURE IN THE BRAKE SYSTEM INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE DAMAGE CREATED TODAY TO NOT ONLY MY VEHICLE BUT ALSO TO THE VEHICLE TO WHICH THIS ACCIDENT TODAY INVOLVED INCLUDING ANY KNOWN OR UNKNOWN INJURIES INCURRED. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO RESOLVE THIS MATTER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

RE: I HAVEN'T FOLLOWED UP ON RCMN-10V017-5275 AS I HADN'T NOTICED A PROBLEM LIVING IN AN AREA WITH LEVEL STREETS. HOWEVER, WHEN TRYING TO PARK OR LEAVE A PARKING SPACE ON AN INCLINE OR DECLINE IT IS A PROBLEM. WHEN MOVING IN OR OUT OF A PARKING, I NOTICED THAT MY GAS PEDAL IS VERY SENSITIVE. IT LURCHES MY CAR QUICKLY FORWARD. THIS IS NOT ABOUT MY PARKING TECHNIQUE. SOMEONE ELSE FAMILIAR WITH PARKING ON THESE STREETS IS CONCERNED ABOUT THE CAR'S ACCELERATION. IS THIS ISSUE RELATED TO NEEDING A REMEDY TO THE ABOVE RECALL NOTICE. IF YES, CAN I GET THIS FIXED FOR FREE EVEN THOUGH MY NOTICE HAS EXPIRED? WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST.

TAKATA RECALL MY CAR HAS 79628 MILES, MY DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED BY THE DEALER ATLANTIC TOYOTA IN HATILLO P.R. TOO MANY YEARS DRIVING WITHOUT A PASSENGER ON MY FRONT SEAT Y FEEL LIKE AN UBER DRIVER. TOYOTA SHOULD GIVE ME A NEW CAR FOR FREE.

TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTING VERY HARD INTO SECOND GEAR, PARTICULARLY WHEN THE CAR IS WARM AND HAS BEEN RUNNING ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THE SHOP REPORTED PRESSURE READINGS INSIDE OF TRANSMISSION ARE HIGH AND RECOMMENDED A FULL REPLACEMENT.
