EVERY TIME I ACCELERATE FORWARD OR REVERSE, MY CAR JUMPS QUICKLY. SCAREY AND ALMOST HAVE HIT THINGS. I ACCELERATE VERY CAUTIOUSLY EVERY SINGLE TIME BUT NOT FUN!!! WAITING FOR THE BIG HIT!!!! NOT "IF" BUT "WHEN?" NOT MY IMAGINATION. MY GROWN SON, HATES TO DRIVE MY CAR. HE SAYS THE SAME THING. HAPPENS ANYTIME I ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION. STOP SIGNS, PARKING PLACES, GARAGE ENTERING OR LEAVING. STARTED ABOUT 2013 AND CONTINUED SINCE, EVERY SINGLE TIME. NOW 10/07/15.

I WAS DRIVING 99 SOUTH IN SOUTH SACRAMENTO LAST AUG 21 2015, AT AROUND 2 PM. MY LT FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AS I STOPPED TO GLANCE AT MY BLIND SPOT ON MY RT SIDE SO I CAN TAKE HWY 50 TOWARD LAKE TAHOE, WHEN I TURNED MY HEAD TO THE FRONT, I NOTICED MY CAR WAS MOVING FORWARD ON IT'S OWN, SO I PRESSED THE BRAKES ALL THE WAY DOWN AND I LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR, I FELT THE BRAKE STUCKED TO THE FLOOR AND THE ONLY REASON THE CAR STOPPED IS BECAUSE I WAS ON BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC AND MY CAR HIT THE CAR INFRONT OF ME. MY CAR HAD ONLY HAD 47000 MILES ON IT. 2 WEEKS PRIOR TO THAT I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER FOR OIL CHANGE AND HE SAID I NEED NEW FRONT BRAKES ON THE NEXT OIL CHANGE. AS A RESULT OF THE ACCIDENT, MY CAR IS TOTALLED. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS INJURED! THE POLICEMAN TOOK REPORT. I CALLED TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE IN TORRANCE AND SHE SUGGESTED TO INSPECT THE " BLACK BOX " OR EDR OF THE CAR THEN SHE ASKED ME WHAT I WANT FROM TOYOTA! AFTER THE ACCIDENT, I FOUND OUT THAT THERE WERE LOTS OF RECALLS ON TOYOTA MATRIX UP TO 2012 BUT I NEVER RECEIVED ANY NOTICE FROM THE MAIL NOR THE DEALER FIX THE RECALL WHENEVER I TAKE MY CAR FOR OIL CHANGE!

AS I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ONE DAY MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE SPIRAL SPRING IS DEFECTIVE IN MY CAR. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART FROM TOYOTA, BUT FOR SOME REASON MY VIN # WAS NOT INCLUDED.

THE NEW COROLLA HAS NO FEEDBACK OF THE ROAD AND WOULD NOT STAY CENTERED IN ROAD AND WANDERS AROUND. IT HAS TO BE CORRECTED REPEATEDLY MAKING LONG TRIPS VERY TIRING. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY CENTERED THE STEERING AND ADDED A UPGRADE CIRCUIT BOARD WHICH TO FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN ILL FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS AND UNABLE TO USE THE CAR AND HAD OTHER PEOPLE DRIVE ME. THEY ALSO HAD STEERING PROBLEMS. WHEN I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN I STARTED HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AND BELIEVE THE CAR IS A DANGER TO ANY ONE DRIVING IT. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO TOYOTA 8/2015 AND THEY SAID THE WANDERING WAS NORMAL FOR THE MODEL USING ELECTRIC STEERING. I HAD TECHNICIAN DO A 8 MILE TEST DRIVE TO CONFIRM THE PROBLEM. THEY REPORTED TO ME THERE WAS NO FIX REQUIRED BY THE GOVERNMENT AT THIS TIME AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING. PRESENT MILEAGE 17500.

THERE WAS A SUDDEN ACCELERATION IN MY TOYOTA COROLLA 2010 AND HIT A TREE,I WAS DRIVING 15 MILES PER HOUR AT THAT TIME. WHEN COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA THEY INVESTIGATED ABOUT 15 DAYS AGO BUT NO CONCLUSION WAS PROVIDED FROM TOYOTA. I WAS INJURED BUT RECOVERED ALREADY. PLEASE ASK THEM WHY THEY ARE NOT PROVIDING ANY CONCLUSION TO ME. .
