MY CAR HAS HAD A RECALL THAT ACCORDING TO TOYOTA THEY DO NOT HAVE A SOLUTION FOR. I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO GET ANYONE TO TRAVEL WITH ME IN MY CAR DUE TO THE RECALL NOTICE INDICATING THAT THE SUB-WIRE HARNESS (FILTER) AND THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU) HAS NOT BEEN INSTALLED. I DON'T HAVE THE POSSIBILITY OF BUYING ANOTHER CAR AND SO I FEEL THAT MY LIFE IS IN DANGER AS WELL. ON 04-13-15 A NEW CASE WAS OPENED TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE (CASE#1504132776). I LATER FOLLOWED UP AND SPOKE TO SABRINA (MANAGER AT THE TOYOTA LOCATED IN WEST COLUMBIA, SC IN JULY 2015. SHE ALSO SAID THAT NO REMEDY HAS BEEN RELEASED YET. I WOULD LIKE TO ASK FOR SOMEONE TO GIVE URGENT CONSIDERATION TO MY CASE. I FEEL THAT I CANT EVEN SELL THIS CAR BECAUSE THIS RECALL LOWERS THE PRICE OF THE VEHICLE AND MY CONSCIENCE DOES NOT ALLOW TO PASS ON TO SOMEONE ELSE A DANGER LIKE THIS. WILL SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

A COMPLAINT WAS FILED WITH YOU ON 4/9/13 REGARDING THE RECALL OF TOYOTA'S FOR AIRBAG MALFUNCTIONS, HOWEVER, TO DATE, I HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING BACK RE MY COMPLAINT. NOW, I RECEIVE ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE FOR THE SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU) RECALLS. EACH TIME, I CALLED THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP (DCH BRUNSWICK TOYOTA, 732.418.7888) AND WAS TOLD, "SORRY, WE DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE AND YOU WILL BE SENT ANOTHER RECALL LETTER; IF THIS WAS A SERIOUS ISSUE, WE WOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT SO DON'T WORRY. WELL, I WOULD CONSIDER A MALFUNCTIONING AIR BAG TO BE A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE IF IT WERE TO MALFUNCTION WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE FREEWAY AND COULDN'T SEE WHERE I WAS GOING DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTIONING AIRBAG ISSUE, WOULDN'T YOU??? THIS WOULD CAUSE A MAJOR TRAFFIC ACCIDENT WITH FATALITIES! TOYOTA ADVISES THAT YOU DO NOT DRIVE YOUR CAR, HOWEVER, I AM A CAREGIVER TO MY ELDERLY MOM AND I NEED MY CAR TO GET HER WHERE SHE NEEDS TO GO AS SHE HAS STAGE II CANCER. WHAT IS BEING DONE TO FIX THIS TROUBLESOME ISSUE AND WHY CAN'T THEY GET THE PARTS FOR IT??? IF I CAN TAKE THE TIME TO SEND THIS COMPLAINT TO YOU, IT WOULD BE A COMMON COURTESY FOR SOMEONE TO CONTACT ME WITH A RESOLUTION. THANK YOU. *TR

I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY 605 FREEWAY IN CALIFORNIA ON DECEMBER 24,2014 AT 10: AM . I WAS DRIVING 60MPH AND SUDDENLY FELT A VERY STRONG SHAKE IN MY CAR THAT CONTINUED FOR ABOUT TWO MINUTES AND THEN I SUDDENLY WENT FROM 60MPH TO 15 MPH . I WAS REALLY SCARED AND CONCERNED ABOUT THIS MATTER. IF I DIDN'T HAVE CONTROL I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN CARS BEHIND ME OR MYSELF IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. I WAS VERY SHAKEN UP AND STRESSED. I HAVE NEVER BEEN THIS SCARED IN MY VEHICLE. I DROVE MY CAR IN SEARCH FOR AN OPEN MECHANIC AND FOUND ONE HE DID A FULL INSPECTION WHICH WAS VERY STRESSFUL DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS A CHRISTMAS EVE . I REALLY HAVE BEEN A LOYAL CUSTOMER TO TOYOTA MY WHOLE FAMILY AND I REALLY WOULD LIKE THIS TO GET TAKEN CARE OF. I DON'T SEE THE NEED FOR ME TO SPEND MORE MONEY WHEN ITS A TOYOTA PROBLEM.

SUDDEN VEHICLE ACCELERATION: THIS IS THE 3RD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO THIS CAR. THE FIRST TIME IT RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THAT WAS REPORTED IN NHTS COMPLAINT # 10405593 ON 6/ 6/ 11. THE SECOND TIME AN ACCIDENT WAS AVOIDED(ALSO HAPPENED WHILE PARKING) IN 2013. THIS THIRD TIME I WAS AGAIN TURNING INTO A PARKING SPACE WITH MY FOOT BOTH OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND THE BRAKE AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN UNINTENDED INCREASE IN RPMS AND ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO BREAK BUT NOT BEFORE HITTING HARD AND GOING OVER THE PARKING BUMPER IN THE PARKING GARAGE. AS AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO TOYOTA AND THEY TOOK NO RESPONSIBILITY AND SAID ALL WAS OK(ON 12/12/14). I WANT TO DOCUMENT THIS INCIDENT IN CASE A FUTURE INCIDENT RESULTS IN A FATALITY OR SERIOUS INCIDENT FOR WHICH TOYOTA WOULD BE LIABLE.

MY 2004 TOYOTA COROLLA HAD AN UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK. MY MOTHER (THE DRIVER AT THE TIME) REMOVED HER FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND WHILE BRAKING THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT FULL SPEED RIGHT BEFORE GOING OVER A SPEED BUMP NEAR TO OUR RESIDENCE. MY MOTHER CRASHED INTO THE SIDE WALK AND SHE WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR USING THE PARKING BRAKE AND EVENTUALLY SHUT IT DOWN. WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE THE CAR HOME, WHERE THE CAR IS CURRENTLY PARKED BUT THE CAR WON'T START AGAIN. LUCKILY, WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY INJURIES, FIRE OR MAYOR CRASH INTO ANYTHING. WE CONTACTED TOYOTA IN WEST PALM BEACH FLORIDA AND THEY REFUSED TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR IS TOO OLD. AFTER ALL EVENTS, DEATH AND ACCIDENTS RELATED TO TOYOTA UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION, I BELIEVE THIS INCIDENT NEEDS A DEEP INVESTIGATION BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PROCEED ABOUT IT OR IF I SHOULD IGNORED AND JUST FIX THE CAR. *TR

I WAS DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET IN EUGENE OREGON WHEN I PULLED MY FOOT OFF OF THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR FAILED TO DECELERATE. I PUMPED THE ACCELERATOR TO NO EFFECT. I LOOKED DOWN AT THE ACCELERATOR AND SAW THE FLOOR MAT WEDGED UNDER THE ACCELERATOR. I WAS ABLE TO PULL THE MAT OUT AND SLOW THE CAR DOWN. LATER IN INSPECTING THE MAT, I SAW FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT THERE WERE TWO HOOKS DESIGNED TO HOLD THE MAT IN PLACE. ONE OF THE HOOKS HAD BECOME DISENGAGED CAUSING THE MAT TO MOVE AND BECOME LODGED FIRMLY BENEATH THE ACCELERATOR. I HAD BEEN FORTUNATE IN AVOIDING AND ACCIDENT. YEARS LATER THE MAT RECALL OF OTHER TOYOTA MODELS WAS MADE. THE 2004 COROLLA WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I CONTACTED BOTH THE MAIN COMPANY AND MY LOCAL DEALER. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO PUT THE MAT IN MY TRUNK. THE COMPANY NEVER MADE A RECALL OF THIS MODEL IN SPITE OF THE ISSUE BEING IDENTICAL TO THOSE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. I HAVE BEEN CONCERNED ABOUT TOYOTA'S LACK OF ACTION EVER SINCE. AFTER HEARING WHAT HAPPENED WITH GM, I DECIDED THAT I HAD NOT NOTIFIED THE PROPER AUTHORITIES SINCE NOTHING WAS DONE. THE 2004 COROLLA SHOULD HAVE BEEN PART OF THE INITIAL RECALL FOR DEFECTIVE FLOOR MATS. TOYOTA, LIKE GM, FAILED TO TAKE CORRECTIVE ACTION AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. PEOPLE MAY HAVE BEEN INJURED OR DIED FROM THIS LACK OF ACTION AND AS LONG AS A RECALL HAS NOT HAPPENED THAT DANGER CONTINUES TO EXIST. *TR

CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK. I HAD IT REPAIRED AT THE DEALERSHIP AND ABOUT A MONTH LATER IT WENT OUT AGAIN. WHEN I CALLED BACK, THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPAIR IT, BUT IT WOULD NOT BE FREE OF CHARGE. SEEMED LIKE THE REPAIR SHOULD HAVE LASTED IF IT TRULY WAS FIXED. HAVEN'T HAD CRUISE SINCE AND IT WAS SO NICE FOR LONG DISTANCE TRAVEL. *TR

CRUISE CONTROL CAN BE ACTIVATED AT TYPICAL ROAD/HIGHWAY SPEEDS EVEN WHEN CAR IS IN NEUTRAL (ON A MANUAL TRANSMISSION). AS A RESULT, THE ACCELERATOR IS ELECTRONICALLY DEPRESSED, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO REV AND HIT THE REV LIMITER. THERE ARE MULTIPLE WAYS TO DEACTIVATE THE CRUISE CONTROL, BUT THE STRESS COULD BE DAMAGING ON THE ENGINE AND THE SCENARIO COULD A MAJOR DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER. *TR
