Was backing up trying to park vehicle and suddenly vehicle accelerated forward on his own causing an accident (hit a pole). Smoke started coming out of the hood.
Toyota South Atlanta in Morrow, Georgia, released my vehicle after a factory warranty repair for transmission failure. However, they failed to properly complete or verify the repair. The dashboard is now throwing critical error codes stating 'A malfunction in the electronic control of the engine, throttle, or automatic transmission has been detected' and 'A malfunction in the VSC, TRAC, or hill-start assist control system has been detected.' Additionally, their own technician documented that my front brakes FAILED. They forced me to drive away without a safety waiver, and a front brake pad has since completely fallen out in front of my home . The vehicle suffers from total mechanical transmission and brake failure.

Dear National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, I am submitting this email to formally report a potential vehicle safety defect involving my 2022 Toyota Corolla. Vehicle information: - Make/Model: 2022 Toyota Corolla - In-service date: 08/18/2022 My vehicle sustained significant wiring damage caused by rodents. Toyota has denied warranty and financial assistance, characterizing the issue as an “outside influence.” However, according to what I read online, modern vehicles —including Toyota models—use soy-based or bio-based wiring insulation, which is widely documented to attract rodents. The damage affected critical electrical wiring, creating potential safety hazards including loss of vehicle function and increased fire risk. This is not merely cosmetic damage but impacts essential vehicle systems. The foreseeability of rodent attraction due to wiring materials raises concerns of a design-related safety defect and failure to adequately warn consumers. Toyota has stated there are no recalls or customer support programs addressing this issue, despite recurring reports from vehicle owners nationwide. I respectfully request that NHTSA review this matter as a potential safety defect and consider whether further investigation is warranted. Thank you for your attention to this safety concern. Sincerely,
I drive under the ACC system, the front traffic slows down on highway, but ACC system do not automatically slows down. So I push the brakes, but the car didn't slow down either. The car crash directly into the front car. Currently the car is under insurance inspectation. after the crush happened, the car start automatically moving without engine on, when it's in the parking mode. An police officer stop the car from moving by manually push the car backwards.
The contact owns a 2022 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated while driving 10 MPH, he depressed the brake pedal while approaching a red traffic light; however, the vehicle failed to stop. Due to the failure, the vehicle skidded and crashed into two vehicles in front of the vehicle, and the vehicle to the right. The air bags failed to deploy upon impact, and the Forward Collision Avoidance feature failed to operate as needed. The contact struck his head on the steering wheel and later sought treatment by a chiropractor for pain to his lower back and neck. Another driver involved in the accident was injured; however, the exact injuries were unknown. A police report was filed. The contact was able to drive the vehicle away from the scene. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The failure mileage was 8,800.
The contact rented a 2022 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH with the cruise control activated, the vehicle independently accelerated without warning. The contact attempted to cancel the cruise control but was unable to. The contact was forced to depress the brake pedal to slow the vehicle and disengage the cruise control. The contact attempted to engage the cruise control for a second time however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was returned to the rental facility and the contact alerted the agent of the failure. The contact stated that the agent offered no assistance. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,474. The VIN was not available.
Vehicle's cruise control got stuck and would not turn off by the brake, the cruise control off button. The only way it would shut off is by swtitching the car into “B-(Low Gear/Engine Braking). Was cruising at 70 mph, and then the cruise control kept speeding the vehicle up to 100 mph, until I switched it into the “B”-(Low Gear/Engine Braking). Now if I wasn’t familiar with this type of car this could have been a tragedy that could have taken place on August 01, 2022.
Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
