WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SITTING STATIONARY AND TURNED OFF FOR ANY GIVEN LENGTH OF TIME IN WEATHER THAT IS BELOW FREEZING AND THEN THE IGNITION SWITCH IS THEN TURNED ON, ABS, VSC, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND NONE OF THEIR CORRESPONDING FUNCTIONS ARE OPERABLE. TIRES GO INTO FULL LOCK UP SKID WITHOUT ABS AND THERE IS NO VSC OR TRACTION CONTROL. THE PROBLEM WILL NOT CEASE UNTIL THE PART CAUSING THE PROBLEM HAS REACHED A TEMPERATURE OF ABOVE APPROXIMATELY 32 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT. THE PROBLEM MAY CEASE WHILE DRIVING OR WHEN STATIONARY, BUT THE CONSISTENT POINT AT WHICH IT IS REMEDIED IS WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE 32 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.

SINCE OBTAINING THE VEHICLE IN 2009 BRAND NEW, UPON BREAKING GRADUALLY, IT SURGES FORWARD SLIGHTLY WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT SHOULD SLOW DOWN. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS ISSUE UP TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHO DENIED ANY SUCH INCONSISTENCIES. ALSO, THERE HAVE BEEN ELECTRICAL ISSUES FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS WHEN TURNING ON THE RADIO; AFTER PUSHING ANY BUTTON AT ANY TIME, IT WILL RANDOMLY CHANGE THE DISPLAY TO NONSENSE CHARACTERS OR BECOME BLANK.

BRAKES ARE VERY SPUNGY AND DO NOT SEEM TO INGAGE. BRAKES WILL FILL LIKE THEY ARE STARTING TO WORK AND THEN RELEASE AND YOU MUST PUSH BRAKES DOWN FURTHER BEFORE THEY WILL START BRAKING. VERY SLOW BRAKING RESPONSE TIME. HAD THE BRAKES BLEED TWICE AND DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM SO THE MECHANIC REPLACED THE MASTER BRAKE CYLINDER AND THE CAR BRAKING DID NOT CHANGE AT ALL. MAKES ME VERY NERVOUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO SLOW BRAKING RESPONSE.

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.

DURING THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE ON A NORMAL SURFACE STREET DURING MORNING COMMUTE THROUGH CITY STREETS FOLLOWING TRAFFIC AT SPEEDS NOT EXCEEDING 35 MPH THE VEHICLE SEEMED TO HAVE ACCELERATED (SPED UP) DURING THE APPLICATION OF THE BRAKE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STRIKE THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF IT. THE DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE STRUCK WAS NOT VISIBLE DUE TO THE SLOW SPEED, BUT IT DID CAUSE MINOR DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION. DURING THE EVENT THE DRIVER PERCEIVED ACCELERATION AT THE TIME OF THE APPLICATION OF THE BRAKES AND THE SOUND ASSOCIATED WITH THE ANTI-LOCK FEATURES BEING ENGAGED. AT THE END OF THE INCIDENT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING SINCE THE REACTION OF THE VEHICLE WAS OPPOSITE OF THE DRIVER COMMAND. THE VEHICLE IS PART OF THE TOYOTA SMART STOP COMPANY RECALL, BUT THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS NOT DONE SINCE IT IS CONSIDERED OPTIONAL FOR THE OWNER TO DO. BASED ON THE REASONS FOR THE RECALL IT IS CONCERNING THAT THE CONDITION IT IS ADDRESSING MAY HAVE OCCURRED. BECAUSE THIS REPORT IS BASED ON DRIVER PERCEPTION I ONLY REQUEST THAT THE SMART STOP RECALL BE ADDRESSED AND POSSIBLY MANDATED TO ENSURE THAT THE ISSUE IS FROM THE SOFTWARE THAT OWNERS WILL TAKE THE TIME TO HAVE IT ACCOMPLISHED.

IT WAS RAINING EXTREMELY HARD, SO EVERYONE WAS GOING WELL BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT. I WOULD APPROX WE WERE GOING 35-40 MPH. THE CAR IN FRONT OF US SLAMMED ON HIS BREAKS DUE TO THE RAIN COMING DOWN EXTREMELY HARD, AND I PROCEEDED TO DO THE SAME. HOWEVER INSTEAD OF MY CAR BREAKING, IT BEGAN ACCELERATING 10-15MPH. LUCKILY THERE WERE NO CARS TO MY RIGHT AND I WAS ABLE TO VEER OUT OF THE WAY OF THE CAR IN FRONT OF US, OR ELSE WE WOULD OF BEEN IN A HORRIBLE CAR ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLY DEAD. AS EXPECTED, MY FIANC IS EXTREMELY SHOOKEN UP BY WHAT HAPPENED. I KNOW THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 2010 COROLLA AND I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR ALL THE RECALLS AND INSPECTIONS BUT OBVIOUSLY THERE IS SOMETHING STILL WRONG WITH THE 2010 COROLLAS BECAUSE I ALMOST DIED TONIGHT DIE TO UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION

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!
