PREOWNED 2013 TOYOTA COROLLA IN THIS CAR HAVE A CARFAX REPORT THAT SAYS IN 2 PREVIOUS ACCIDENTS THE AIR BAGS NEVER DEPLOYDED. AS ITS 3RD OWNER PURCHASED WITH 46958MILES I HAVE NOTICED THAT I THE VEHICLE BRAKES TO HARD. AND WHEN I STEP LIGHTLY ON THE BRAKE IT CONTINUES TO DRIVE TILL I STEP HARTER ON THE BRAKE. ITS HARDLY NOTICEABLE AND TO CATCH. 3RD ISHU IS THAT WHEN I US THE AC IT USES TOO MUCH FULE. ALSO WITH THE AC TURNED OFF IT IS STILL BLOWING OUT COOL AIR AT A LOW LEVEL THAT COULD BE SENSED BY PLACING YOUR HANDS BY THE AIR VENTS.

CAR DOES NOT ENGAGE IN GEAR WHEN FIRST STARTED AND PLACED IN DRIVE OR REVERSE. IT REMAINS IN NEUTRAL (EVEN THOUGH THE SHIFT LEVER IS IN DRIVE OR REVERSE POSITION), THEN GRADUALLY SLIDES INTO GEAR. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC FROM CURBSIDE, PARKED POSITION. THE CAR DOES NOT GO WHEN ACCELERATOR IS DEPRESSED. IT IS HARD TO TIME WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WILL ENGAGE AND THE CAR WILL GO. YOU MIGHT GET LUCKY AND ENTER THE STREAM OF TRAFFIC SAFELY OR GET HIT BECAUSE THE CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS EXPECTED. DEALER CANNOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM BUT EACH TIME I GET IT BACK IT DOES IT AGAIN.
