Part of a customer support repair program through Toyota. It expired, and Toyota Customer Care at 1-888-270-9371 told me to file a complaint at NHTSA.gov. So I am filing a complaint. The paint is peeling on my car rapidly and I have missed the support program deadline because it was not happening in the timeframe they created for this problem. But there is no reason for my pain to be peeling like it is other than manufacture error.
Fail to pass Texas vehicle safety & emissions inspection.
Sunroof exploding while driving. Could cause safety issues if inner compartment was opened when the incident occurred. The vehicle has not been inspected yet but I will have a glass company replace the sunroof asap. No symptoms of any fault was present before the incident occurred.
Paint peeling on the roof.
Sunroof suddenly exploded while driving 40 MPH on a highway No evidence of projectile was in the car. The glass was volcanoed up. It was around 50 degrees outside. I was immediately confused as to what happened. I was traveling in a merging lane and could have vered into the other lane and hit another car. Glass was Falling down onto me and the passenger seat. No police were called I took the vehicle to a glass repair. Insurance was not involved as my dectiable would not have been meet for the cost of the repairs. No warning or any symptoms the sunroof glass from the car. Itjust suddenly exploded for no reason.
CAR ACCELERATES HARD FROM STATIONARY IDLE. HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. YESTERDAY ACCELERATED FROM IDLE AT A 4 WAY STOP INTERSECTION ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. VERY SCARY. NOT COMFORTABLE USING IT UNTIL PROBLEM REMEDIED.
BOTH OF THE SUN VISORS HAVE GOTTEN SO LOOSE THAT THEY NO LONGER FUNCTION. I CAN'T LIFT THEM UP TO SEE AT NIGHT, AND WHEN I GO UP A HILL, IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WHAT'S AHEAD. THEY PARTIALLY BLOCK THE VIEW OF THE ROAD AHEAD AT ALL TIMES WHEN I'M DRIVING. THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT IT IS TO PURCHASE NEW VISORS AND HAVE A DEALERSHIP INSTALL THEM. I SEE THAT MANY OF THESE CARS HAVE A RECALL BECAUSE OF SUN VISOR PROBLEMS, HOWEVER, MINE IS NOT ON THE LIST. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED IT WAS A PROBLEM, BUT THEY CAN'T FIX THEM. ALL SUN VISORS IN THESE CARS SHOULD BE REPLACED WITHOUT CUSTOMERS HAVING TO PAY OUT OF POCKET.
I DRIVE QUITE A BIT AND NORMALLY KNOW MY VEHICLES PRETTY GOOD. I HAVE RECENTLY OBTAINED THIS 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA S AND IT IS IN GREAT CONDITION OVERALL. I MADE A TRIP 2 DAYS AFTER GETTING THE VEHICLE AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A HESITATION BETWEEN 55-65 MPH. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS APPROXIMATELY 11AM IN THE MORNING AT 78F. DRIVING ON A FLAT WELL MAINTAINED BLACK TOP ROAD THE VEHICLE DOES IN FACT HAVE A CONSTANT HESITATION THAT DROPS APPROXIMATELY 1000-2000 RPMS WITH A NOTICEABLE FEEL IN THE VEHICLE. IMMEDIATELY (3-4 SEC) AFTER THE HESITATION THE VEHICLE RECOVERS BACK TO THE ORIGINAL RPM. AS LONG AS STAYING IN THIS SPEED RANGE (55-65 MPH) THE VEHICLE HAS THE HESITATION REPEATEDLY. THE SECOND ISSUE THAT I HAVE NOTICED ON THE SAME VEHICLE IS THE ACTUAL DECELERATION WHEN REMOVING MY FOOT FROM ACCELERATOR. WHEN TRAVELING ON THE SAME ROAD AND TIME AS STATED ABOVE THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO REALLY COAST RIGHT ALONG OR SO IT SEEMS. WHEN SAYING THIS, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM ACCELERATOR AND THE VEHICLE ROLLS RIGHT ALONG AS IF I AM STILL PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR AT WHICH TIME I MUST APPLY THE BRAKE MORE SIGNIFICANTLY THAN LETTING IT JUST COAST. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW THIS IS EFFECTING MY GAS MILEAGE, IS IT GOING TO CAUSE UNDUE STRAIN ON THE DRIVETRAIN, IS THIS GOING TO BE A PROBLEMATIC ISSUE THAT TOYOTA IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO IGNORE?
3 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE, MICE STARTING COMING INTO THE AIR FILTRATION SYSTEM. I HAVE TRIED TO KEEP THEM OUT HOWEVER THE DESIGN FLAW IN THE CABIN AIR INTAKE WILL NOT PREVENT THEM FROM COMING IN. THERE IS A HUGE OPENING WHERE THEY CONSTANTLY COME IN. I HAVE 2 SMALL CHILDREN AND THIS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS BETWEEN DISEASES AND THREAT OF WIRES BEING CHEWED. WE ALSO HAD A TOYOTA TUNDRA THAT HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. MY HUSBAND TRADED IT IN AND HAS A FORD NOW AND DOES NOT HAVE A PROBLEM AT ALL WITH MICE.
