2007 TOYOTA COROLLA Complaints

ON 01-22-20, IN AUSTIN TEXAS MY DAUGHTER, [XXX], WAS KILLED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING HER 2007 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE OTHER VEHICLE THAT WAS INVOLVED IN THE HEAD ON COLLISION WAS DRIVING A 1993 CHEVROLET SILVERADO PICKUP. WHEN THE VEHICLES COLLIDED MY DAUGHTER WAS KILLED BECAUSE SHE WAS PINNED AGAINST THE STEERING WHEEL, UNFORTUNATELY THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND SAVE HER. THE OTHER DRIVER RECEIVED SEVERE FACIAL INJURIES. WHY DIDN'T HER AIRBAGS DEPLOY? WHY DID HER 2007 TOYOTA HAVE A HIGH SAFETY RATING BUT YET SHE WAS PINNED BE HER STEERING WHEEL? *TR*DT *TP*DT 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *DT*JB

MY AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY DASHBOARD WILL NOT TURN OFF. EVEN AFTER RESET IT STILL COMES BACK

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, IT IS MORE LIKE A QUESTION ABOUT MY CONCERN ABOUT A COMMON MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. I DO NOT HAVE SERIOUS ISSUE AT THIS TIME BUT I GOT SOME ALARMING SIGN ON MY VEHICLE THAT I AM AFRAID IT COMES BACK. I HAVE NOTICED TONS OF COMPLAINT ONLINE ABOUT TOYOTA COROLLA 2007 GIVING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH THE CODE P0741, YOU CAN ALREADY FIND IT ONLINE AND MANY OF THE OWNER SEEMS TO BE FRUSTRATED ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IN MANY CASES CAR DOES NOT HAVE ANY ISSUE BUT THE LIGHT COMES AND GO, SPECIALLY WITH THE S MODEL. IT INCLUDES CARS WITH 50,000 MILES AND ABOVE. THE NUMBER OF CASES SEEMS TO BE SIGNIFICANT AND TOYOTA DEALERS SEEM TO OFFER TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT WHICH IS APPROXIMATELY THE PRICE OF THE CAR. I HAVE SEEN A RECALL FOR 2005 AND 006 COROLLA FOR COMPUTER CHANGE WITH SIMILAR ERROR CODE BUT WITH THIS HIGH NUMBER OF COMPLAINT, I COULD NOT FIND ANY RECALL FOR COROLLA 2007. THE CODE IS MOST OFTEN READ AS SOLENOID ISSUE WHILE TOYOTA DEALERS SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TRANSMISSION IN ALL CASES(BASED ON REVIEWS). I BELIEVE YOU MAY NEED TO LOOK INTO IT AS IT IS QUIET FREQUENT AND MAY CAUSE SAFETY ISSUE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMPUTER OR ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL. (BUT TRANSMISSION MALFUNCTION GENERALLY COULD CAUSE SERIOUS ISSUE ON THE ROAD OR HIGHWAYS) PLEASE LET ME KNOW ABOUT YOUR OPINION ON THIS MATTER. (I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU ARE ALSO INVESTIGATING A COMMON MANUFACTURER DEFECT, I WAS NOT SURE WHERE I SHOULD REPORT THIS MATTER) THANKS FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION

THE MANUFACTURER HAS FAILED TO REMEDY THIS SAFETY RECALL IN A TIMELY MANNER. IT'S BEEN MONTHS, AND STILL NO REMEDY IS AVAILABLE. NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 19V627. MANUFACTURER RECALL NUMBER K1Q
