Takata recall: received recall notice may 23, 2016, one year ago plus. Since then we are unable to use the front passenger seat per instructions. This seriously limits the use of this vehicle, and makes it unusable at times. What is the status of this recall, and do we now have a viable complaint against toyota?

The toyota was going aprox 60mps in slow lane of nys interstate 84 and was rear ended by another vehicle and was pushed into a guardrail at side of interstate.toyota has extensive damage to rear and front ( car is totaled). Driver side air bag did not deploy on toyota upon impact with guard rail.as a result of impact from the rear and the front, driver of the toyota received laceration which required stitches, swelling and black a blue marks to facial and nose area, and a head concussion which required a 3 day stay at a hospital.the issue and concern is non-deployment of driver side air bag on the toyota at that rate of speed.new york state police has an accident report.
Takata recalli received a recall notice in july 2016, it is now april 2017. I have called toyota on two occasions over this period to see if they have the repair. The answer is always no. A year is approaching. I would like my car repaired.nhtsa recall no 16v-340
Takata recall. I would like to file a complaint. I bought my toyota in 2010 brand new. I'm have been driving it around with my children in the car with these dangerous airbags. Since the airbag company has been fined, the people should get this money for a rental car or replacement car. Since we can't sell the car we have to put our family in this dangerous car every day. Is toyota just waiting for people to get killed or seriously hurt?just like vw they had to buy back the cars and they weren't even a danger. But we are driving in these dangerous cars every day.
Takata recall - i believe that a remedy for this defect hasn't been established within a reasonable time period.

I [xxx] the owner of toyota corolla 2010 (license plate: [xxx], licensed with the state of maryland vin no: [xxx]), residing at [xxx], while trying to park in my residential apartments at the above mentioned address (at a speed of 3-5 mph), applied the brakes and all of a sudden it caused an unintended acceleration and i hit the huge metallic trash bins in front of me at a very high speed on october 28th, 2013. The airbags did not deploy, but the front of my car got damaged heavily. It has been towed away by my insurance company geico to one of their body shops. My left ear and neck are in great pain since then and my wife [xxx] who was the passenger along with me suffered left knee sprain. We have been in a state of utter shock and dismay since this incident as this was completely unexpected. I have been a safe driver since the past 7 years and have never had any accidents, violations etc. Also i never mistook the gas pedal for the brake during my whole driving career and i use only one leg for this purpose. My vehicle when i purchased in 2010 was inspected 2-3 times for this and other issues by the dealer/toyota. The initial estimates as per my insurance agent are several grand (dollars) and the damage to the car is extensive. The insurance company's body shop is working on it. Please see the attachments that show the car was taken to the toyota dealer within a few months of purchasing it for acceleration problems and also the edr reports, service statement showing that this model is a part of a open recall service by toyota.i opened a case with toyota usa headquarters about the unintended acceleration that caused the accident yesterday. The case# is [xxx].information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). ... Updated 03/19/15
My 19 years old daughter uses this car to go to college with her friend. Toyotal customer service manager advised me to pay $10/day for additional insurance which is not fair. Also he is advised me that there is no lability of my toyota car for damage when i leave the car with them to repair. Basically, toyota offers a total discouragement to the vehicle owner and force us to drive the defective car. My daugher does share rides with her friends and take turns. Someone has to sit in the front seat. Toyota crm name: jason edward, 713-270-3924. We need full coverage of rental car not an extra cost to us $10/day until our corolla is repaired for this safety recall.
Takata recall-i don't understand how i could still be waiting for a resolution, so many months later, for something as important as an airbag that could cause serious injury.

Takata recall.gas pedal becomes stuck with floor mat when car is in motion.we have had to remove floor mat for safety.removal of floor mat has caused wear and tear on floor board covering.
Takata recall-our toyota still has the recalled airbag in place with no estimated time from toyota on a fix.we are only told not to have someone in the passenger side of the car and to wait for them to notify us of a remedy.this is going on way to long and it is unexceptable to not be able to use our vehicle.they tell me they cannot disable the passenger side airbag in the interim.
Takata recall - we have been waiting for almost a year for replacement part for this airbag problem in my daughter's toyota. Have been renting a car for her since august, but can't continue with long term rental once she's leave for law school 300 miles away. Can we please move up in the queue? thank you.
I am told by toyota not to have a front passenger until a remedy is in place for my 2010 toyota corolla.that has been the story since may 2016 and it's now november 2016.what can toyota do to compensate for the extreme inconvenience to me and my family?i get stressed on the road, knowing that i'm putting my family and friends in danger.how long will it be before we get this situation resolved?what about payment for our stress and inconvenience?can i get a replacement car until the problem is fixed?
I brought my corolla 2010 to auto nation toyota tempe last december 11, 2015 for the recall of airbags lights illumination. Before i brought it to auto nation, airbags lights remainilluminated after traveling long distances. After the repair on december 11, 2015 there will be time that the airbag lights remain illuminated after starting the engine traveling short distances. I called the service advisor about the problem, and he told me that they have done what is to be done, and told me to bring back the car to them and if the problem is not related to what they have done , i might be charged with diagnostic for $193.00. I am worried that they might say that it has a different problem not related to the recall. My only concern is why would the problem with airbag lights remain illuminated after they have repair it?

So now there saying she can't sit in the passenger seat cause fragments of metal may seriously injure or even result in death. It also says that it could strike the vehicle's occupants i live in a high volume place were the traffic is horrible and dangerous and toyota doesn't have a remedy available and i'm trying to work and will not at any cost put my wife's life in danger. On top of that toyota has not provided an alternitave rental car and they said if one is available i'll have to pay out of pocket for insurance . I'm not the one who messed up here and i have to pay insurance for two cars. One for my car that i owe 10000 dollars on that's a ticking time bomb and for another car that they should be accomadating everything. This needs to be fixed i'm having a mental breakdown i'm on a title fit schedule to pay my bills and i can't even go to work. Please make toyota fix my problem i having heart palpitations and can't afford to miss one job. I'm a hard working man and will not be forced to pay insurance for a mistake of another multi billion dollar car company. And i'm still waiting for them to provide a rental car?????
Takata recall. The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the horn began to fail after the vehicle was repaired per nhtsa campaign number: 16v340000 (air bags) by toyota of pharr (1625 w expy 83, pharr, tx 78577, 1-800-347-2360). In addition, the air bag warning indicator remained illuminated after the repair. The contact was uncertain if the part that was replaced caused the failure or if the remedy was the cause. The dealer indicated that a service appointment needed to be scheduled for the horn failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was not available.
Takata inflators. Toyota said to file a complaint if i believe they have not provided a remedy in a reasonable amount of time. I have not been able to have a passenger in 3 months and according to their hotline, a remedy will still not be available for the foreseeable future. Other car companies have provided repairs or replacements months prior to this date. I find this unacceptable and dangerous.
To toyota :sending out an interim recall notice #16v-340 saying you are preparing a remedy is not satisfactory this recall has been ongoing for months and a remedy should have already been completed. Toyota had plenty of time to prepare this remedy. Advising owners not to drive vehicle with passengers in front is certainly not conducive when you only have one vehicle to use. You should provide another vehicle in the meantime.

Takata recallairbags did not inflate during dec 2016 vehicle crash where car was stopped at traffic light and was hit from the rear and pushed into vehicle which was in front of toyota. Toyota was totaled at crash.
Takata recall - i received the recall notice over a year ago regarding my air bags being recalled.to date toyota has done nothing. When i asked at the puente hills toyota i was told they were working on the issue and that was almost a year ago and that i was not entitled to a rental car. These airbags are dangerous and my toddler son sit in the back seat with me as the driver. If there were to be an accident and the air bag deployed with the metal shrapnel that is in it then both him and i could be severely injured or even suffer death. Is this what toyota wants on their hands? injuries of a child and a single mother?i want my car fixed and i want it fixed within the next 60 days. I also want my repairs to be done by my mechanic if at all possible because the toyota dealership at puente hills is unreliable and untrustworthy with any repairs they make.
Takata recall.have a 2010 toyota corolla that has recall on the passenger airbag.i have a family of 4 and it is inconvenient and almost impossible to have everyone sit in the back seat.i have called the manufacturer and the dealership and asked when will the part be fixed.they said it could be months.i have waited months.i asked for a loaner car and they said no.they tell me to have my family sit in the back seat.i don't feel safe driving my car and on top of that i am still paying for this car.i feel like i am paying for half a car.it is ridiculous!i feel the manufacturer or dealership should give me a loaner.i don't feel safe when someone is in the front seat and sometimes it is impossible to follow the recommendations to have the passengers sit in the back.all of my family does not fit in the back seat.i need my car fixed now or i need a loaner until the dealership can fixed my car.i feel the manufacturer and dealership are lacking in trying to solve this problem.it is not the consumer fault for this recall.they need to solve the problem now!the consumer safety depends on it.
My daughter has a corolla and it has a recall notice for the airbag ofthe passengers side, but there has been no solution since it's discoveryand public notice of march 2016.

Takata recall. Hello, i got the interim notice on this quite a few months ago. I just contacted toyota of poway to see what's going on and they told me it is still in the interim letter stage. What the heck is going on? you would think they would make the safety of their customers a priority. How can this process go faster? i don't recall when exactly i received the notice, there isn't a date on it so i will just give a guesstimation.
Upon doing some research of the takata recall, i have found out that one or more of my airbags may eject metal fragments during a collision. I feel unsafe driving my vehicle and would request a rental car until this has been satisfactorily remedied.
Summary:the subject vehicles are equipped with front passenger airbag inflators produced by takata. According to takata, the propellant in these inflators may degrade after prolonged exposure to high absolute humidity and fluctuating high temperatures. Degraded propellant can cause inflator rupture during airbag deployment.safety risk:in the event of an inflator rupture, metal fragments could pass through the airbag cushion material, striking the vehicle occupants, and result in serious injury or death.remedy:the remedy will consist of the replacement of the airbag inflator or the airbag assembly, depending on the vehicle model.
12/27/2015 i was in a accident. I t-boned a drunk driver because he ran a stop sign. My air bags never deployed. This could have been a very bad situation. He has no insurance. My husband and i bought this car because of the safety and we were never safe at all. We were in motion on a highway going straight. Sheriff's office and insurance adjuster were very shocked that the air bags never deployed.

Takata recalli received a written notice may 23, 2016 that my toyota corolla 2010 is part of the takata recall. However, it has been 8 months and there has not been additional information via letter or otherwise as to when the remedy will occur and when my airbags will be fixed. I do not drive my vehicle regularly or have passengers in my vehicle for fear that being in the vehicle while it is operating will result in catastrophic failure of the airbags and "serious injury or death" to me or my passengers, as listed in the letter i received as what could happen. This is a hardship for me as i need my vehicle to travel in my city. I would like this airbag remedy implemented immediately so i can safely drive my vehicle and drive with passengers.
Takata recall. I received a recall notice about the takata airbags on may 23, 2016. It has been almost a year and the remedy is still not ready. My vehicle has not been in a crash yet.
"takata recall" - i received a recall on this defect a number of months ago. It appears to be a very dangerous problem. I have contacted the dealer numerous times but they continue to tell me they do not have the parts to repair the recall and they can do nothing for me. With a defect this severe i believe they should be required to repair this much quicker to get me and others out of harms way. If they can not repair the problem i should be given a loaner car. It is certainly not acceptable to have a car that no one can ride in the front seat. We do not have alternatives or the funds to simply park the car and wait.

The driver-side airbag failed to deploy in a side-impact collision.the estimated speed of impact was between 40 & 45 mph, directly striking between the driver door and the front driver-side wheel.toyota corporate customer service center was contacted, and replied that the system performed as designed.while not an expert in airbag design and operation, i cannot imagine a more clear-cut situation where the airbag should have deployed to protect the occupants.the vehicle has been declared "totaled" by the insurance company, but photos of the vehicle are available.

Takata recallit has been months since toyota sent me a recall notice for the airbags in my 2010 corolla. As of today (oct 29,2016) there is no fix available. This is unsatisfactory. I drive 500 miles a month on the interstate with my wife.
Takata recall. We received a notice many months ago and a solution is still not available. The manufacturer told us not to sit in the passenger seat until it is fixed. This has become unacceptable for us. Thank you for your time.

Tanks inflators, dealer has had my car since august 2016. They are furnishing a rent car, but mine is just sitting, dead battery and drying tires and oil seals. Never started, which is bad for the car. Toyota could have just bought the car for what they have paid in rental fees. I am concerned the car won't be worth having by the time i get it back.

Dealership not responding to recall in timely manner called and place order on 7/21/2017 and again 8/4/2017 and 8/24/2017.getting no assistance on air bag recall
The problem is with the passenger side airbags produced by takata. We were notified about this several months ago. A few days ago i received a letter from toyota telling me that toyota is preparing a remedy for these airbags and what i needed to do was not operate the vehicle with an occupant in the front passenger seat. I called toyota up and was told that they do not have a remedy yet, and they have no idea when they will have a remedy. Their solution to this airbag problem is to put all passengers in the back seat. We have a family of five so i can not do that. Their solution of not having people in the passenger seat is not acceptable to me and should not be to anyone. I have a family car and would like to use it with my family. I can not do that. Thank you.

Takata inflators the dealer told me today ( 3/16/2017 ) that i have to wait until december 2017 for a remedy. This is not acceptable and unrealistic to not have a passenger in the front seat for almost a year. Come on now, let's get this fixed by summer as heat and humidity can cause the air bag to inflate.

Takata recallthis remedy has not yet been performed after contacting the toyota customer experience center and burnsville (mn) toyota service center directly 3 times. I contacted the customer service center when i first received the letter on 02/12, spoke to pam , after she spoke with the service center, advised me the parts would be ordered in 2-3 days. On 02/21 i called them again and the rep stated the parts were never ordered, so she put in a request and advised me to wait a couple of days. I called on 02/26 directly to burnsville toyota, sarah said the parts were never ordered and she would "push it through" during our phone call. This is unacceptable due to the fact i feel that i've been failed this remedy within a reasonable time. I'm waiting to get my oil change done same day. I feel i have been neglected and this notice was to inform me of an important recall that could cause serious injury or death to passengers. Please advise as soon as possible.

We believe something punctured the front left wheel of the car when driven down a street and the emergency brake when released did not stop the car. The car skid into parked cars and air bag was not deflated even though it was serviced under the airbag recall. Passenger sideview mirror, right body of car is damaged, side and portion of front and back bumpers became damaged. No out of pocket expenses made. The damaged car sits in our driveway soon to be towed and sold for parts.

On sunday august 2, 2010 around 4 a.m., i was driving down the freeway approximately 60/mph. I was about to exit when i realized there was an abandoned vehicle blocking my exit lane. It was impossible for me to swerve to the right or to the left. I directly hit the car going at a speed about 55/mph. My bumper came off and was stuck to the abandoned car with the rest of the front of the vehicle destroyed. My air bags did not deploy, which now i and my passengers in the accident feel unsafe. It could have caused serious personal injuries but we were really lucky. I have not even had my vehicle 2010 toyota corolla for 2 weeks and it concerns me that there can be other effects.i have been in other car accidents before going at a lower speed and the air bags deployed right away.
Takata recall - i called the claremont, ca toyota location (601 auto center dr, claremont, ca 91711) on monday june 19, 2017 at 6:45 pm to schedule an appointment for my airbag due to the takata recall. The service customer service said they did not have any parts available and would call me once they get something. Since this is a major recall affecting thousands of cars, all toyota service dealerships should have ample of airbags on stock to remedy this recall. Since this is nationwide, all toyotas should be held accountable for having sufficient airbags at all times. With that being said, i just got into a car accident today ( june 21, 2017 ) and i heard a pop in my airbag. Luckily, the airbag did not deploy and no one was injured. Toyota should be held accountable for this recall and have sufficient airbags for all year, make and models.

July 2016 received letter from toyota about takata airbag problem under nhtsb recall 16v-340 for which it was stated no remedy was available yet.i spoke to toyota (case 1607114644) who said this vehicle was under their zone a since it was originally registered in ca and so a high priority due to the environmental conditions that would contribute to a higher likelihood of a problem.as of today, dec 18, 2016, the safer car website still says no remedy is available but to submit a complaint if the manufacturer is taking too long, and since it has been several months, the need is urgent, and the consequences are severe, i would like my airbag replaced asap.
Takata recall of passenger airbag due to degradation of material in hot/humid climates. Recall was issued 5/23/16, there is still no remedy available and not even a projected timeframe of when one will become available. In the meantime, no one can sit in my front passenger seat, and i have to remember to limit the amount of weight i set on it, or else the consequences could cause serious injury or death. This is nerve wracking and inconvenient. I feel.that toyota should be investing their resources in developing a remedy asap and am wondering what the hold up is.

When i purchased this vehicle, i immediately felt an awkwardness with the brakes. Anytime i began to stop & the road was less than perfect, the brakes locked up & i seemed to slide to a stop. The feeling was almost like stopping on gravel or hydroplaning, just no control felt. When i complained about this, i was told that's how the new brakes are (i had previously owned an older vehicle) & the brake inspection found nothing. I have been in two mvas prior, once i was rear ended & the other time someone ran a stop sign & hit me. 10/12/11 i rear ended another vehicle & was also rear ended in the proocess. When i went to brake suddenly that day, the car slid into the vehicle in front of me. I am a very conscientious driver. I have always been told that when someone rear ends another vehicle, it is automatically their fault. I have since purchased another new vehicle, different manufacturer, and being told the toyota brakes were right, couldn't be further from the truth. 10/10/11 i had lab work performed & was diagnosed as being pregnant. This accident two days later, the airbags didn't deploy, either. The hood of the car came in through the windshield on me, the car has been deemed a total loss. There were two faulty toyota parts that failed me and my unborm child that day-the brakes and the airbags. I get to have surgery 10/28/11 to remove the now nonviable child from my womb. I equate this loss to the failures on toyota's part.
Takata recall::::: unknown as to when there will be parts available? safety concerns as to i have an infant riding in the car at all times. Was told by my dealership that they have no known dates as to when it can even be fixed. Highly unsafe for these cars to still be on the road as to living in very hot, and humid conditions!!!

Toyota 2010 corolla brake system failed. The emergency brake went on , while i was driving without me doing anything. The odometer stopped working, brake, check-engine, panic mode and airbag system lights went on. The failure has occurred twice already, first starting as a brake failure, then almost leading to the accident when everything failed at once. Almost got into an accident and i couldn't accelerate in the car. I took the car to the dealership and they gave me run around, they still don't know how to fix it or what's wrong with it. This car is beyond unsafe to drive, luckily it didn't lead to an accident and injuries both to me and other drivers.

I can't get my new tags for my car until i get this recall done. This is going to cost me late fees. When will the recall be ready for san diego residents?
"takata recall"this recall has gone on for a year, there is no fix available. My husband and i each own a 2010 toyota corolla. So when we go somewhere, i have to ride in the back seat or if i have friends, we have to take their car. The dealers can not nor will not offer any recourse. I found out that over 23 million cars are affected by this. The question is: where do we fall in this number for repair. We are trapped with these cars. We live in texas so we are in the "likely" probabiliy due to heat and humidity of airbag accidentally being deployed.we cannot sell the cars, we cannot buy new cars, and toyota will not give us a rental or lease until repairs can be made. I certainly am not paying for that. I believe that toyota (who is ultimately responsible) will never fix this problem. Our 2 - 2010 toyota corollas are now 7 years old. My husband is 67 and i am 65, we cannot afford to park these cars to rot and buy more cars.what is nhtsa going to do about this? my second toyota corolla vin# is: 2t1bu4ee6ac16525, so you can see i am telling the truth in having 2 of these. I believe that toyota should buy these cars back or allow valuable trade-in prices (not try to steal these cars) from the owner toward a new car. At this point, i will never buy another toyota. Our cars, though 7 years old are in otherwise tip top shape, but we are stuck with them from now on.

We have been notified by toyota that we live in a region of the us (san diego) which is particularly prone to failures of the takata airbag inflators. We were notified over two months ago and told that the period of extreme danger to occupants of this vehicle is right now. We have not been given a data or time of repair of this life threatening problem and toyota, despite knowing of this problem since 2004 has not offered us a solution. This is an nhtsa recall number 16v-340.

Inspection by auto repair facility (brookhaven automotive, norman oklahoma) revealed driver and passenger air bags were not working, along with horn and speed control unit. Clock spring and spiral cable kit found inoperative and replaced by facility at cost of $339 (parts & labor) to consumer. The spiral cable unit was subject previously to recall and was so replaced at no charge by fowler toyota, norman oklahoma, on 12/02/14. Shouldn't these safety defects be covered by the manufacturer? especially the spiral cable unit that was just replaced under recall on 12/02/14?

There was a recall on the takata airbags that is in my toyota.that was on 05/23/2016.it is not 11/23/2016, 6 months after the recall and there is still no remedy to the issue.i am waiting for toyota to provide a remedy and it is taking an unusually long time for them to remedy this situation.they are recommending that we not have any passengers in the front of the car and that is an extreme inconvenience.they are basically taking 1 passenger seat away from us.this might be acceptable for a short amount of time but this is unacceptable and outrageous for them to make toyota owners basically wait months for a remedy.how long are they going o make us wait, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years.i am extremely unhappy with the situation.

Takata recall.we just received the recall info and were determined to be in zone b because the vehicle was registered in ct.however, the vehicle was purchased in florida in 2013, where it originated.my daughter was in school in florida so the car was there until she graduated in may of 2016.we moved to north carolina, renting since april 2016 and now owning since june 2016.all this is to say that the car, since it's origination has resided 95% of the time in florida and virtually not at all in ct.we feel the vehicle should be placed into zone a, due to it having been mostly in fl and now in nc and especially since my daughter and her friends use the car for the majority of the time.
"takata recall" - i took my car to the dealer with my recall notice.i was told that it was not due to lack of parts but there was no solution to my problem.i received a loaner car.this was around july 21st 2016.i received my car back around june 16th 2017. Almost a year later.this in my opinion was not a reasonable amount of time.toyota spent approximately $20,000 in rental cars for this period of time and returned my car needing a new alternator, battery, all the rubber around my sunroof and the trunk is dry and rotted making it susceptible to leaks. Also, my radio is not working. My car is basically worthless to sell or trade in at this pointl .thank you for your help.

Takata recallhas not been replaced and it has been about a year and a half and it is on the red zone and the dealer still says, they do not have the parts to replace and they can not tell me what kind of airbag is on drivers side and all they tell me is it's on intermittent recall.how long do i have to stress about driving this vehicle, their solution is just don't have anyone sit in front seat.i take care of elderly parents and they cannot climb into the backseat for doctors appointments, how much more time do i have to stress over this situation?

There has been a recall on my vehicle for about a year with the passenger side air bag.this is getting ridiculous. My notice suggests to not have someone riding in the passenger seat until recall is fixed. I have a family of four so that is not going to happen. I don't have any other options.is there any idea of when this is going to be addressed?
5 months have passed and so far i have not received a 2nd letter indicating to take my car for the airbag recall issue. I visited the toyota dealership already a couple of times but i've been told that there is "no remedy" for my car. I live in miami florida,so the temperature variations and humidity is a fact of life. I'm very worry about all of this. What is time frame that toyota should do this airbag recall. Safecar.gov indicates "recall incomplete. Remedy not yet available" when i ran my vin. Not sure what to do.

I made a left hand turn and was hit on the front passenger side. The force of the hit spun my car in a full circle, damaged the entire front of the frame, knocked off the front bumper, caused the trunk to open, and caused severe damage spanning the whole front end of the car including the driver's side door which i was unable to open. During this accident, the airbags did not deploy. The estimated cost for repair for my corolla was 13,000 dollars.

Takata inflatorsmany months ago, i received a notice that the airbags may be faulty and that i should not have anyone in the front passenger seat until this issue is fixed.this is our family vehicle, so that poses an issue right there.but in the interest of safety, we squeeze everyone in the back seat.fast forward to present and my local toyota shop says that after 8+ months, there is still no fix for this issue.we live in florida, which is one of the hot zones, and supposedly we are in more risk of malfunction. One of the reasons i purchased a toyota is for its sturdy reliability and customer service.i can't use the vehicle to transport everyone and i can't in good conscience sell the vehicle knowing the dangers.what is toyota doing about this?i have always loved the toyotoa brand, but this whole situation is putting a bad taste in my mouth.

Takata recall. In may 2016 i was notified by mail that toyota is recalling a takata inflator on my 2010 toyota corolla. I use this car to drive my significant other and i to work and she can no longer safely occupy the front seat per the recall instructions and toyota's suggestion against it. This is detrimental to my financial situation as we now have to pay for 2 cars so we can drive places together safely. There is still no contact from toyota as to when a resolution will come.

Takata recall: i was notified of the recall in june of 2016. The temporary remedy was to not allow any passengers to ride in the front passenger seat until the airbag had been replaced.i learned of the availability of the replacement parts in june of 2017 when i called for a third time to pursue the remedy.it was reported that the parts had become available in may of 2017, and i was notified of the remedy by toyota in july of 2017.a full calendar year is an unacceptable delay for a safety recall, and expecting toyota owners to not use their front passenger seats for a year is ridiculous.i am aware of other car companies that sent a similar recall notice and offered the remedy within two weeks.i have now had the service completed.

Takata recall. I called the dealership (bob howard toyota in edmond, oklahoma) to schedule the airbag replacement but was told they do not have the part and will call me when the part is available. I asked the employee if we could get a rental or loaner car in the meantime since we use the passenger daily for our kids. She informed me they do not do that and that i need to call toyota directly via the number on the recall form. After talking to toyota they informed me i should receive a call from toyota relations at the dealer (bob howard toyota) within 48 hours. After waiting a week and receiving no call i decided to call toyota directly again. I was then informed the dealership was suppose to call me back on the 27th of august (48 hours from original call with toyota) but they did not. When toyota tried to reach out to the dealership the person in charge of handling these matters would not answer their calls. So now i am waiting an additional 24 hours to get a call back from the dealership to get a loaner car. During this whole thing we are still driving a car with a airbag that could potentially kill someone!

Takata recall - i have contacted the lubbock toyota dealership on a monthly basis since i received my safety recall notice regarding the takata front passenger airbag inflator. I have been informed they do no have a remedy for this recall. I don't have a record of when exactly i was notified, but i think it has been about a year.
Airbags icon on passengers side appear as off as well as driver side on panel appears as not working, i have to shut off and on the vehicle for it to go away or reset, from time to time it occurs - it just started happening about a month or so ago it was working fine - now every now and then the airbags malfunction and appear as off on the panels and vehicle has to be turned off and on for the off button/ function to be reset. Also lock button on driver side does not lock with the remote control ... It has to be manually locked for the vehicle to be closed and alarm to be activated.
Takata inflator.vehicle was recalled in august of 2016.as of february 23, 2017, the vehicle has not been repaired.this is not within a reasonable amount time.we are a service company and have 4 other vehicles with the same recall.we need leases in order to continue business.
While driving at 35-40mph around a curve, i has pressed on the brake pedel to reduce speed an the vehicle failed to respond, but accelerated in speed while steering became inpossible to control, it was if the vehiicle was controlling it self.i had been drove into an through a ditch an out, hitting a mailbox, concrete lined driveway exiting the first ditch an entering another also hittng a street sign as well as a mile marker sign, my seat belt failed to lock which lead my headto repeatedlyhit the top of vehicles windshield as well as the steering wheel. Futhermore the airbag failed to deploy.i suffer from sever headaches, my vision in lt eye although inproved has greatly decreased, as well as memory.

Takata recall. Received an interim notice regarding passenger airbag early summer. I have called the dealer in september and again in december to inquire about repairing. Was told by dealer that parts were not available and they had no idea when they would become availabke. The most they could do was put me on a list. Called toyota customer service early december and again was told parts were not available and they did not know when parts would be available. We have been advised not to use the passenger seat. That response is unacceptable. A deadline needs to be in place....we could perhaps have to wait 2 years.

My toyota corollais always parked outside in the sun at high humidity in hawaii (up to 99%) and high temperature (up to 99 degrees) all day long so it has already experienced long-term exposure to environmental moisture and high temperatures.and since my car is 2010 it has been parked in high humidity and in the sun at high temperatures all day long for the past 6 years.since the recalls pose an unreasonable risk to my safety, i am requesting immediate remedy to this situation including providing a loaner vehicle until the remedy is available. See a8 -- i do not consider not carrying passengers in front passenger seat as a remedy or minimized risk.i car pool and carry passengers on a daily basis.

Takata recall.
"takata recall" i was in an accident in my 2010 toyota corolla exiting a major interstate on 07/07/2017. The off ramp had a very sharp curve where i lost control (possibly a failure in the stability control system?) and was traveling at around 45mph. I went into a spin and the left rear of my car hit the guardrail, spinning out still my car then hit the guardrail head-on causing the front end to collapse into the motor cavity. The airbags did not deploy causing bruising to my shoulder and abdomen areas. My neck and back were injured causing me to be immobile for a couple of weeks. I have had cat-scans and mri's trying to find out what my injuries are. I have to go to pain management to deal with the everyday pain and my life has been affected greatly. I informed toyota about the airbags and they seemed very concerned. The are investigating the issue and sent out a company called bosch to download information from the cdr box. I am still waiting on toyota's answer to this problem. I was never aware of this recall as i had purchased the car pre-owned from a toyota dealership october of 2015. I also reported the airbag lights going off and on along with other electrical problems to two different toyota dealerships along with allstate insurance company, my provider.
The airbagrecall.com website states that my vehicle has a recall but the local dealer says that it does not. I need help determining what to do.

"takata recall"this is my second complaint submitted to you. The toyota dealer has had my car for 1 year-- unacceptable- they have nothing to tell me regarding when the recall will be fixed. My car has been sitting somewhere for a whole year. I've contacted my lender(capital one) no success there. I cant trade vehicle in because it is not released to me. Can someone help me please, this is absolutely unfair, unacceptable.

"takata recall"this recall has gone on for a year, there is no fix available. My wife and i each own a 2010 toyota corolla. So when we go somewhere, i have to ride in the back seat or if i have friends, we have to take their car. The dealers can not nor will not offer any recourse. I found out that over 23 million cars are affected by this. The question is: where do we fall in this number for repair. We are trapped with these cars. We live in texas so we are in the "likely" probability due to heat and humidity of airbag accidentally being deployed.we cannot sell the cars, we cannot buy new cars, and toyota will not give us a rental or lease until repairs can be made. I certainly am not paying for that. I believe that toyota (who is ultimately responsible) will never fix this problem. Our 2 - 2010 toyota corollas are now 7 years old. My wife is 65 and i am 67, we cannot afford to park these cars to rot and buy more cars.what is nhtsa going to do about this? my second toyota corolla vin# is: [xxx], so you can see i am telling the truth in having 2 of these. I believe that toyota should buy these cars back or allow valuable trade-in prices (not try to steal these cars) from the owner toward a new car. At this point, i will never buy another toyota. Our cars, though 7 years old are in otherwise tip top shape, but we are stuck with them from now on.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Takata recallmy vehicle was recalled may 24,2016 at that time it was advised that we not use the front passenger seat as a safety precaution it took over a year to get the parts to repair the vehicle.we had not been able to utilize the front passenger seat for over a year so when we traveled with more than 3 people in the car we had to take another vehicle.i eventually got my grandchildren for the summer and on then was i told i could get a loaner vehicle so in may of 2017i was provided a loaner vehicle and my parts came in 2 weeks later.that is not acceptable it was an inconvenience and i feel there should be compensation for that.

Takata recallhello, my vehicle has been recalled for 9 months. That means nearly an entire year of not being able to safely transport passengers. I understand this is a mass scale issue that is challenging to solve, but it's also ridiculous for me to spend so much money on a car, only to lose basically 25% of the seat space i pay for. It's caused much difficulty transporting my family, because i'm definitely not allowing anyone to sit in a seat that might kill them. I expected a long wait for this to resolve, but taking nearly a year is bordering on unacceptable. When can i expect toyota to get on the ball? thanks

Takata recall zone a - g0p (interim g1p) red zone. Nhtsa recall no. 16v-340.i received a takata passenger-side airbag recall notice a year ago may 2016 when i still lived in zone a florida. Toyota says it still hasn't found a remedy, whatever that means, and keeps telling me i can buy a new car.as you can imagine, i have some thoughts on what toyota can do. Newspapers keep reporting that a lot of people haven't taken their vehicles in for takata recall repairs. I believe the real problem is that toyota is dragging its feet. My daughter's subaru had a takata recall this spring and her dealer fixed it the next week! we both live in columbus, oh now. I have to haul my grandchildren so i am very concerned about how toyota is dragging its feet.

Total loss of vehicle..police report is incomplete of details, due to officer "not believing me" and "purposely leaving report incomplete because of this being the second time out here on this call", when i tried to explain what happen while driving this toyota corolla, however the tow truck driver is a witness and agreed to testify..i have called toyota several times and have got nothing.. Property damage was done on third party property as well.
I was hit by a driver going at least 20 mph leaving my vehicle totaled and myself injured. The airbags never deployed on impact. I was in a rotary going 10-15mph and the other vehicle (truck) struck from the front/side area.

"takata recall". Vehicle was recalled in may. Toyota customer service says they are unable to help because they have too many other vehicles involved in the recall. They suggest i "call around to other toyota dealerships" until i find one that is not overwhelmed with recalled vehicles.
Takata recalli am feeling unsafe due to recall of air bag pending on my car. I have visited two times toyota dealership to fix it. But they say no remedy available. I am afraid of driving out with my family in this car now. I don't want to sell it to private party since i know it is unsafe. And toyota dealership will pay way less than actual worth of car if i trade in , since recall is pending. So all in all i feel in stalemate position.

Takata recall - toyota has informed me that my vehicle is involved in a may 23 airbag recall (#16v340) and it is in the highest-risk geographical zone. The letter that i received advised me to not operate my vehicle with anyone in the passenger seat. It has been almost four months and toyota has still not made a remedy available to me. I am still unable to have a normal number of passengers in my car, for fear of injury. I think that a remedy has not been made available in a timely manner.

Nothing yet but these recalls, one for the electric window master switch, well over a year old, and the other for the passenger side airbag, where i'm cautioned to not have passengers in that front seat, which is really inconvenient and means i don't have full use of my own automobile, has been out long enough that a fix is long overdue. Why the delay and why does the government do nothing for consumers who paid for these cars but with some not insignificant defects. I would like my car fixed, both the master switch for the windows and the passenger side airbag that could fail to deploy.

It has not deployed yet, but told not to drive and then told dont have anyone in front seat, im so confused, and so scared, and have anxiety. I was mailed the takata recall letter from the toyota maufactuerer. I called immediately to inquire since the letter stated do not place anyone in your front seat. I was told they did not have a remedy for the recall, and did not know when they would. I asked what am i supposed to do since i have 3 children and i must get to work. I was given a claim number and told a csr would call in two business days. No one called so i called again. I was told someone shouldve called me, none the less was informed i could get a loaner vehicle until the recall was addressed. I stated to the csr how will that work if you dont know when a part will be made and you dont know how long ill be without a car. Since no one called me i called the jim white toyota dealers service dept. And was told at first they had no loaner cars, then was placed on hold, rep said we do have a loaner but not til feb 1, 2017. I said youve got to be kidding me.i expressed my concerns and frustrations and how unfair this is to have a vehicle i pay a car note for thats not safe to drive and in the event i get a loaner i have to still pay for a parked car along with insurance, and i would have to insure the loaner vehicle. So unacceptable. I called the toyota dealer to see if they will take car back, trade in, or buy back. I am to go in friday to see if this is possible. I am very frustrated and disappointed in the lack of empathy when itis pertaining to someones safety and their childrens safety.

Experienced a car accident on 1/28/2013, the car has been estimated as totaled as per all state car insurance. My issue and concern is that the air bags did not deploy, although the vehicle was hit in both the front and back into the guard rail on the highway. Please investigate if this is a safety issue, or if the sensor did not pick up the crash.

Takata recall: it shows this recall began may 23, 2016 - it is now january 31, 2017 and this recall still has not been remedied because a remedy is not yet available according to the nhtsa recall information website. I've paid for registration renewal weeks ago and have not yet received my tags, the dmv suggested i check to make sure there are no incomplete recalls and this came up so i believe it is delaying my registration tags from being mailed. This is an official complaint about remedying a recall in a timely manner. I will pursue the matter further until i am cleared to register my vehicle properly and to avoid unnecessary/potential citations due to not displaying my current registration.
Last december 11,2015 i brought my corolla 2010 at auto nation toyota tempefor air bag recall as the air bag lights is always illuminated. I waited for more than 3 hours for them to fix it. When its done, i drive the car home but after a day the airbag lights remain illuminated. I waited if it will disappear after a few days, but up to this day, the illumination of air bag lights is still on. It was fixed with no charge to me, but what about now that nothing has been fixed.

Takata recall-it's been about a year and we aren't able to use our front passenger's seat due to the recall.
Takata recall. I received a notice from toyota about a recall that will require a replacement of my front passenger airbag and was told not to have anyone sit in the passenger front seat.it's almost been a year and they have yet to have a remedy for it.how much longer is it going to take for a fix/replacement of my airbag?
I called toyota after receiving the recall notice which recommended using the vehicle without an occupant in the front seat. When i called the customer service number, the representative stated repair of the vehicle was not a "remedy available at this time." when asked about a car rental again i was told that "remedy is not available at this time." i was then transferred to an individual who stated reimbursing individuals for making 2 trips to transport 5 people was not a a "remedy available at this time." the notice which was sent only warns to keepoccupants out of the front seat. However, a heavy purse or even grocery bag triggers the weight sensor and may cause the airbag to deploy. I mentioned this to toyota and said she may want to pass that information along because it may be a serious safety concern. I was told she was taking careful notes and a case manager would contact me the following business day. I never received the phone call. The next morning,i once again reached out to customer service, this time asking the customer service rep about whether the notes reflected the information i had given them about the weight sensor. She stated there were no notes and that either way toyota does not take "unsolicited advice." the customer service line has essentially been set up to compartmentalize incoming information in order to shield the company as it kicks the can down the road on the repairs. I am documenting this here in the hopes they can be contacted to remedy the letters language and hopefully prevent injuries to the public.
Takata recallwhy hasn't toyota fixed this yet? i first got the recall notice in early june, almost 4 months ago. Since then, i have not allowed any occupant to sit in my front passenger seat, per the recommendation of toyota. This is unacceptable!!! i need my front seat. Toyota needs to fix this issue immediately. How hard is it to replace an airbag inflator?

Takata recall. Why is it taking all these months to get this recall fixed.it has been over 6 months since i received the letter and well over a year since this recall came to the car owners attention.they suggest not to have passengers ride in front passenger seat until it is fixed. This is taking way to long to remedy and allowing us to drive in unsafe cars.now they say they have a loaner program with dealer.my dealer does not even know about this.are we supposed to give up our cars and drive a loaner possible for months and months?this is unacceptable.why is it taking toyota so long to get the repair parts for these takata airbags.the dealer does not know, toyota mfg. Does not know.someone needs to speed up this process so we do not have to drive months in a unsafe car.i am going to go to the press and news outlets and report this issue and what is taking so long and allowing toyota owners to continue to drive in unsafe cars.

Takata inflatorsthis problem was announced in mid 2016. It is now 2/2017 and toyota still does not have the parts to correct this recall. I called my dealer and they have no idea when they will receive the parts to fix this problem.since this is a major safety hazard i think they are taking way to long to remedy this problem.
I was driving at approx. 65 mph and due to an off-center feeling and a lax steering wheel, lost control of my vehicle. Under no fault of my own i subsequently crashed into a guard rail, spun across lanes of traffic, and did not have any airbags deploy despite losing my front bumper, front bumper support beam, radiator, fans, headlight, had my door pinned in, hood crushed, and missing my passenger headlight. The vehicle was not totaled since no frame damage was done and none of the airbags deployed.

"takata recall" letter from toyota indicates that the only present resolutionwith the takata airbags is for you to not use the front passenger seat. There is also concern that an impact may cause materials from the airbag to injury or kill a passenger riding in the passenger rear seat. This danger is immediate and needs a fix now. I received this recall notice on july 22, 2016.
Driver side airbag light on need new ecu for airbag.
Takata recallit is my understanding that owners of affected vehicles have begun to receive replacement airbags. I own and operate an affected vehicle but have yet to receive any information on when i can expect to receive a replacement air bag or what i can do to have it replaced at a local dealership.
6 months ago a toyota recall notice was issued for my 2010 toyota corolla takata passenger seat airbag inflator.the dealer claims that a "remedy" still not available.i am still unable to safely carry a passenger in the front passenger seat of my toyota corolla.
The recall was announced in may, 2016.it is now nearly november.the car may not be safely driven with a passenger.the failure to even offer the repair of a dangerous defect in 7 months, let alone repair it, is unacceptable.
Takata recall. The nhtsa recall number is 16v340. The manufacturer recall number is g1p. My complaint is in regards to the recall effort. Before receiving the official letter from toyota for this recall, i had taken my car to my local toyota dealer because for a time the airbag light was turning on and staying on longer than the other lights after ignition. I had heard the news about defective airbags and was concerned. When i took my car in for the first time in early 2016, they told me everything was fine and that there was no need to return unless the light stayed on during trips. When i asked them if it was safe to have someone sit in the front passenger seat, they said it was fine. Then, months later, when i got the recall notice from toyota, the letter clearly stated that, i should not have anyone sitting in the front passenger seat.when i took my car in again, they said they were still working on a fix and that it could take months or perhaps even years. Apart from the fact i cannot use my front passenger seat for people, the most infuriating part of this is that i was told by people at my local toyota dealer (before receiving the official recall notice), that i could safely have people in the front passenger seat. In addition, i have driven for months concerned about an airbag in my car which could harm or kill me or other people in my car. Slightly before learning about the defective airbags, i was involved in a single-car crash with a yellow safety post in a subterranean parking lot entrance in january 2016 (fender bender). While my front bumper had to be repaired, no airbags were deployed at the time.

While making a left-hand turn, my wife, driving our 2010 toyota corolla, was struck by a driver running a red light. The other driver (in a volvo wagon) did not see the light, nor break, striking the corolla on the driver's side door and wheel area at approx. 35-40 mph. The force of the impact was enough to crumple the corolla's door and wheel area, leaving the car totaled. No airbags deployed, not even the side airbags, leaving my wife with a concussion from the accident. The 2010 toyota corolla was purchased new this past fall, had only 9,000 miles on it and had sustained no previous damage or accidents. The mechanics at the autoshop where the car was deemed totaled said that they had no clue as to why the airbags did not deploy. Since the car was new, i am wondering if there was a defect in the airbags that prevented them from going off.

Toyota corolla s 2010 [xxx]with extra stabilizer bar kit, purchased 11-30-09 with delivery in 12/09.1) approximately 1 month after purchase ,the car starting to veer sharply right then left when driving on the highway, it was/is difficult to control requiring a tight grip on the wheel.it feels like strong winds are moving the car but winds are absent and road conditions are normal. This event comes and goes unexpectedly, generally lasts the duration of my commute once started, sometimes occurs with the tire pressure gauge but not always, sometimes occursafter rapid braking.it does not feel like an alignment or balance problem, the car darts from one end of the lane, to the median of the lane on its own. On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.
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.
My 07 toyota corolla s started stalling and the check engine light came on. The car started and was fine. The next day the same thing happened. When i went to start the car again stalled. I took the car to the dealer and they fit me right in even though they were busy, which i appreciated very much. This all happened at approximately 62,000 miles. Luckily the car was still covered under 8 yr/80000 miles warranty.

Nothing yet but these recalls, one for the electric window master switch, well over a year old, and the other for the passenger side airbag, where i'm cautioned to not have passengers in that front seat, which is really inconvenient and means i don't have full use of my own automobile, has been out long enough that a fix is long overdue. Why the delay and why does the government do nothing for consumers who paid for these cars but with some not insignificant defects. I would like my car fixed, both the master switch for the windows and the passenger side airbag that could fail to deploy.
The driver door caught on fire while i was driving.

As i was driving on hwy, i suddenly lost my power steering and i had power steering light, vsc and slippery car light cam on. From that point on i didn't have power steering, it was difficult to drive since it was hard to turn. Thank god that i didn't get involve in wreck. When i took it momentum toyota dealer in tulsa and explained what happened, service advisor said that since it has almost 45,000it is not covered under warranty. When i called to toyota customer service and express my safety concern, they said if it is concern thati need to get it fixed and pay out of pocket since it has about 45000 miles on it. I also informed them that it is well know issue on and there are alot of people having issue with power steering, he said i am sorry you vehicle is out side the warranty and we will not cover it.
Takata recallfor almost eight months my car horn has not been working. I cannot inspect it without the car horn working! no one will touch it! it's like my car has a disease and no one wants to be corrupted or something. I saw on a tv program called fraud squad about how when a airbag is deployed some components in and around the airbag are affected to the point of failure. I've only had the car two years and the most important thing, the inspection/registration sticker cannot be had! i feel very much let down by the dealership i acquired this car from. I got it from fort bend toyota in rosenberg. It's gonna take me many years to pay this car paid off and already i may have to jury rig it and void every warranty ever. My warranty went out, they asked me to re-up it, i didn't, and boom, i'm screwed! where can i go to get help with this? i am lucky i have not been ticketed yet. Updated 01/25/2017*ct
Driver side window switch is not working good. When using it to pull down driver side window is being scratched up due to i think lack of lubricant. Window switch works but is making marks on my windo and i am scared it will eventually break it.
Driver side airbag light on need new ecu for airbag.
Correction and addition to my 1st complaint. Yesterday i had to drive my husband home from the hospital and unfortunately i had to get on the hwy. The car road home was more worrisome than his surgery! the eps in the 2010 corolla is just as dangerous as the other corolla i had before it. Its blowing all over the road, taking me into other lanes, i almost hit other cars on the hwy, my husband got all distressed in the car and begged me to get him home so he could get out of my car which he now has dubbed a death trap. The car basically veers in and out of the lane your in. Its like trying to drive in the road ruts only there wasn't any because our stretch of hwy had just been paved with black tar and all was flat and nice on the road surface but the car still took me all over and im not alone when i scream to you please im begging you to come to my house and drive my car!!!!! i can guarantee you will recall this model as well!!! this is dangerous!!! no person should have to get see to there car blowing around like a kite in the sky. Im begging you please come drive my car!!! this is dangerous and i feel like im going to die in this car.
This recall has been taken care of but is not showing on this site.
First, the trunk stopped opening from the inside. Also, the vsc off light, check engine light, and traction light all came on at the same time while i was driving and i have no idea why. The gas cap was on tightly, the fuel levels were right, there was no need for an oil change, and the car is only 2 1/2 years old in which i did not do any wreckless driving.
Please note:problem with the engine.engine light come on a lot, but when i had it checked, they could not find out why it continue to come on.
Car suddenly all the dashboard lights came on at once brake lights,abs lights,power steering lights,and speedometer. I've been to the dealership they ripped me off said they had no clue what was wrong. *ln
Takata recall. I have a recall on 2010 toyota corolla's airbags
I'm not 100% sure if the master switch window is part of the recall but my master switch was smoking and i felt like if i continued driving earlier it felt like my car was on fire. I could've lost control because my switch was literally smoking non stop. I was at the traffic light when it happened, luckily i was on the first line, i accidentally hit the window switch with my elbow and it started to smoke. I wasn't feeling safe so i called my insurance and i asked for a tow truck to bring my car to s nearest toyota dealer, i kept asking toyota dealer if this was part of the recall but they cannot answer me. I don't feel safe driving toyota because of this. I might switch my car with some other brands of i keep getting this kind of incident.
I was driving to work when suddenly thick smoke started appearing from the driver's side power window switch. I immediately pulled over and got out of the car. The smoke had the typical smell of burning plastic and the front passenger window slowly opened on its own.after 5 minutes, the smoke stopped and i continued to my office as it was nearby. Later in the evening, upon removing the switch, the melted plastic was clearly visible. One of the switches on the panel does not depress anymore due the melting of the plastic. The switch that does not depress is for the front passenger window and it has been open since friday july 19th because the problem has not been fixed yet. I am aware of a recall for the exact same issue however, it is for corolla models up to 2009 and since mine is a 2010 model, toyota refuses to address this situation.
Prematurely failing: struts (repaired summer of 2013), water pump (repaired 10/15/13), brakes (repaired 10/15/13), and alternator (yet to be repaired).

I was driving my car yesterday and as i went to accelerate the car didn't move so i pushed the gas pedal again and it went real slow. Then the car jerked and began to smoke really bad so i pulled over and open the hood and flames began to shoot out.

The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
I have been taking my corolla to the dealership almost every week since 01/28/2010 and every week i complained about how the car was drifting side to side and how on low windy days i have to fight the steering wheel to keep it in its lane at speeds above 65mph. And every time i take it over there they say "well the car is working to factory standards" and they will send me on my way. I have had my brakes bled and my car alignment done twice and the car only has 2000+ miles on it. So i took the car back to the dealership from where i bought it and they gave me thiscust states vehicle is all over the road at highway speeds like the computer is driving the car on its own ~|~performed health check on all systems. No trouble codes stored. Test drove vehicle on 10 mile trip and ~|~vehicle performed as designed at this time. Please direct customer to toyota at 1-800-331-4331 if they have any other questions. So i took the car back and called the # to them and they said since the tech could not find the problem then there is no problem. Bull. So on 03/01/2010 i took my car back in to the dealership to have someone go on a drive with me and i made sure it was a windy day so they can see how hard it is to keep the car centered in its lane. The mechanic that went with me said oh i see what you are talking about he even had a hard time keeping the car from wondering off. So he said well it could be the tires are not to the right pounds. I said nope i had the air done to factory standards of 35psi all around. So he said he will need the car for over a day and scheduled appt for me to come in i took it back on 03/03/2010 and haven't had my car back since then. They still have my car in the shop as i type. So there is definitely a problem with the car. I feel like i can hurt or even kill someone in the car because of it. I have had more problems with this car and its not even 60 days old yet. Plus i already had the recall done on it too.
While driving a 2010 toyota corolla le the steering wheel unexpectedly jerked away from my control. In addition, the power steering and braking system is making strange sounds, such as hissing, pings and cracks. I took the car to toyota dealership and mechanic stated it is probably the electrical system. He also stated that toyota will probably recall car due to complaints with powersteering. Due to the above issues and recent recalls on my car, my wife and i don't feel safe and secure in car. We are scared of dying like other toyota owners have in the past. We would like a full refund of $17, 209.97 from toyota motor sales usa.

I have leased a 2010 corolla in july 2010 it now has approx. 4200 miles on iti continue to have unexplained what appears to be electronic or computer software problems with the vehicle.one instance was i put the car in drive, but the car did not move, but the engine revved when i put my foot on the gas pedal.i then put the car in neutral and back into drive and the car functioned normally.i then drove approx 6 miles round trip and returned home, put the car in park, i had my foot on the brake, and my hands were touching nothing i was reading something that i had in my hand and the high beams popped on the light illuminated on the dash, it was fairly light out so i don't imagine that is a feature, it was a bit overcast and cloudy.the odometer at some point changed from displaying miles with 10ths and only displays full number miles, i think it was after i accidentally hit the alarm button on the remote key that it changed but i don't know for sure.i also believe the car's computer was not properly set upon delivery, or they put in a software upgrade when i went to the dealership.the invoice shows they did a computer reset.the recall fix has already been performed on this vehicle, and i am now unable to get a response from toyota, i have been waiting 3 days since i reported it to the dealership and i have not received a response, and today i can not get through to toyota or the dealership due to high call volume.

Horn failed to honk when needed. It did not work while vehicle was in motion on a highway, it did not work on a city street, it did not work parked in my driveway.the wire became separated and there was a void, the wire cover stayed intact until i removed the connector from the horn. I had to connect a new wire from the existing wire and reconnect to the horn. All is fine now.
When i am driving my 2010 toyota corolla s on the highway at speeds of over 50 mph it does not stay straight. It requires alot of strength to keep it straight. It feels like the car is being moved to the right or left by winds. Feels very unsafe to drive. The steering wheel is so stiff to turn sometimes. I have done the wheel alignment several times and put on new tires recently but the problem still remains. Very unsafe to drive and i get very tired after driving at highway speeds just maintaining in my own lane. The dealer's are not much helpful at all with this. I've read online alot of people having problems with this make and model with the steering. There needs to be an investigation on this soon because it's very dangerous to drive.

Car would start then driving at 10mph the car stalls and the dash lights illuminate the dashboard. Put the car in park and restart with no problem but if somebody was behind me it would've caused an accident. Last week car did the same thing except i the car was in motion towards an intersection from idle and had to quickly put it in park and restart it and move it before i would've been involved in a deadly accident.
Recall issued 9.2015 was incomplete....still waiting on a fix. Recall 15v689.
Airbags icon on passengers side appear as off as well as driver side on panel appears as not working, i have to shut off and on the vehicle for it to go away or reset, from time to time it occurs - it just started happening about a month or so ago it was working fine - now every now and then the airbags malfunction and appear as off on the panels and vehicle has to be turned off and on for the off button/ function to be reset. Also lock button on driver side does not lock with the remote control ... It has to be manually locked for the vehicle to be closed and alarm to be activated.
About a week ago my passenger side window wouldn't roll up. Today, i stopped my car at a rest stop and my driver side door started smoking. The wafted up through the windows and the window controlled button. I had to turn the car off because it was getting out of control. I turned the car off. Waited. Turned it back on and the smoke came out instantly. Toyota has had a recall on their camrys with the same problem. Corollas need to be added to the list. I'm suck in another state with a car that can catch on fire at any minute it seems.

This vehicle uses a drive by wire (dwb) accelerator. When you press on the gas the car lurches forward. This happened on a rental car in 2010 and still is a problem on the used toyota i purchased. When i contacted toyota they stated there was no recall information. They asked me to have the vehicle diagonized at my expense, which i refused to do. This is a problem and based on information on the net others are having the same problem. I have owned many cars and not one has had such a touchy pedal.
The car seems to increase in speed even when applying the brakes. The electrical system is not functioning properly. The digital display radio seldom works, the anti skid control does not activate, the lights, both inside and out blink on and off, including headlights at night. The ac and heating unit cuts on and off. It seems as if the entire electrical system in the car is in need of repair.

My son received his car today that was shipped to him from maui to portsmouth,va. As he was driving back to base his passenger side mirror fell off. The inside was melted. I have pictures of the mirror. This is a fire hazard. I contacted toyota via email about the incident. This car was purchased new and has only had routine maintenance. There is either a faulty connection or faulty part that caused this. I now worry that the car may catch fire.
I was driving my car down the highway going about 60mph and all of a sudden lost all engine power, with no warning, stutter, jolt or any sort of noise. I managed to coast to the shoulder but could not get my car to turn over and had to tow it away. Obd code reader would not connect with on board computer. When cranking the engine there was no spark to the coils.
I stopped at a red light. Several engine lights started blinking. When the light turned green, my car would only move very slowly. I was lucky enough to get through the light with oncoming traffic and then coast downhill to a residential area. I had just gotten off of a 4-lane divided highway. I had to have the car towed to my toyota dealership. They told me that my engine control module had short-circuited and replaced it in the next two days, the part # being 8966102f54. The car is running fine now. I'm scared though, that this might happen again, or that it could have happened at high speed, or that my teenage daughters would have panicked in the situation and may have been hit while going through the green light. Thanks for your help.
Our 2010 toyota corolla (automatic transmission) frequently hesitates as if acceleration has ceased and then reaccelerates after it appears to switch gears. Happens at highway and freeway speeds, seems to increase with use of a/c. After test drive, toyota mechanic explained this is normal and due to electrical parts that have replaced mechanical parts. He said car is thinking when it switches gears and apparently stops its other function (i.e., maintaining a steady speed) for a "nanosecond." this happens every block or so in highway driving, and although the speed doesn't change, the impulse changes are physically perceptible (we can feel it in the seat and steering wheel, as if the car is jerking). The mechanic said this is normal in newer cars as most have gone to the new technology. The mechanic's explanation is logical, but toyota's acceptance of this as normal in newer models of cars is disturbing. We do not experience this in our 2010 ford fusion. Please note: several required fields on form were not applicable, such as mileage at which we experienced failure, date of incident, etc. We just related most recent info in these fields.
After starting the engine and driving approximately 100 feet, the dashboard lights: abs, anti skid symbol, battery and oil lamp appeared.lost power steering, windshield wipers ceased, it was raining heavily.drove approximately 6 miles to home.the next morning, car started without any issues, drove approximately 100 feet, the same lights appeared and power steering again ceased.able to drive approximately 5 miles to work.made an appointment with dealership for after work.car immediately started with the above mentioned lights appearing again and without power steering.drove approximately 2 miles, all power in car stopped, and car immediately stopped.was unable to restart car, car was towed to dealership, where the service member stated the car needed a new alternator. When asked why this would occur with only 25000 miles, the service department was unable to give me a response. The alternator was costly.i am the original owner, purchased this car in july, 2009.service my car regularly as suggested in manual at a toyota dealership.i am disappointed with needing such a costly repair as i have never experienced this in the past with other makes of cars.all of which i have owned for 8 to 10 years each.

My 2010 toyota corolla continues to have acceleration issues. Now it accelerates with the cruise control on to speeds over 100/110 mph.i had to drive my car from vermont to california, and used my cruise control for the first time. The speed limit was 75 to 80 mph in areas and i set the cruise control to 72. The next thing i new, the car suddenly lurched forward on its own & went completely out of control. It went to speeds of 100- 120 mph within 1-2 minutes andi could hardly control the car. I have been in 3-4 acceleration incidents with this vehicle already and been injured (the reports i have already filed with your agency this past year). This vehicle is going to kill someone.there is an electrical or engine problem with these toyotas, no matter what the nhtsa, the feds, or toyota states.it is not the way americans are driving ! don't insult ourintelligence. How many more innocent victims have to get hurt. All we are asking is for toyota to take these cars back and replace them with a safe car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!that is what is fair to the consumer. That is what the lemon law is for. Yet why does no one listen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2010 toyota corolla.consumer writes in regards to steering and other vehicle problems. The consumer stated the skid light would come on at any time, even if she was driving slowly. When going around a corner, controlling the steering was somewhat of a problem. If it were snowing, or raining, the rear end would slide out to the point, the skid light would come on. There were times, when the vehicle would not start. The consumer also stated she heard a clicking sound from the vehicle, then all of a sudden, the vehicle took off.the incident happened severalmore times.updated 11/13/14
Why have i not been contacted...this is ridiculous..10 recalls on this vehicle and none of them have been fixed...this was a dangerous vehicle that never shod have been on the road..total loses of vehicle..where is the warranty?.. This vehicle was sold less than a month after my accident and i was told therefore the vehicle could not be located for investigation.. I want something done about this..!
My new 2010 toyota corolla, (less than 1000 miles) accelerated suddenly. I was driving in a parking lot and going about 15-20 mph. I applied the brakes after the first car was hit but was unable to avoid hitting the second car. My car and two other cars nearby were damaged, but no one was injured..
There was a sudden acceleration in my toyota corolla 2010 and hit a tree,i was driving 15 miles per hour at that time. When complained to toyotathey investigated about 15 days ago but no conclusion was provided from toyota.i was injured but recovered already.please ask them why they are not providing any conclusion to me. .
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while parked, the front passenger side window failed to roll down. The contact stated that the front driver's side door panel was hot to the touch. The failure recurred continuously. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 12v491000 (visibility). The failure mileage was approximately 42,000.
My car suddenly turn on most of the dash lights: brake,abs, power steering, and the speedometer , temperature gauge, revolution gauge and air conditioner stop working. The vehicle was stationary when all tis problems stated start to happen
I have 2010 corollo sport if i am driving on 45 mile/hour and hit the brake then remove my leg from the brake.the car maintain speed of 20-25 mile/h for about 2 minutes.i took to the dealer they test it and they confirmed that this happens.and they told me this is a normal behavior,and i know it is not
Toyota 2010 corolla brake system failed. The emergency brake went on , while i was driving without me doing anything. The odometer stopped working, brake, check-engine, panic mode and airbag system lights went on. The failure has occurred twice already, first starting as a brake failure, then almost leading to the accident when everything failed at once. Almost got into an accident and i couldn't accelerate in the car. I took the car to the dealership and they gave me run around, they still don't know how to fix it or what's wrong with it. This car is beyond unsafe to drive, luckily it didn't lead to an accident and injuries both to me and other drivers.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla le. While sitting idlein the parking position, the vehicle momentarily lunged forward. While traveling at various speeds as low as 50 mph, the vehicle would veer to the right. Also, the keyless remote, which also acts as a vehicle locator, would only operate intermittently. Often, the vehicle locator alarm would go off on without driver input. The dealer advised changing the batteries in the keyless remote. That did not correct the failure. The dealer then attempted to reprogram the keyless alarm sensor and advised the locator could only be used for short-range locating. No further repairs were performed on the vehicle. The failure and current mileages were approximately 6,300. The consumer stated the brakes did not perform as designed. Updated 07/19/10
When applying the brakes, my car will rev up. Especially when i'm going down hill. Another concern is that my car will make a 2-3 second rattling noise upon starting up. It only makes this noise once in a while and it is coming from the engine. Another issue i'm having is the car's check engine light, track light and vsc off light coming on simultaneously on any rainy day and staying on for several days after it has stopped raining. I avoid driving at fast speeds when its rainy because obviously the car is very unstable. My driver side window wont open or close and very cold days and other days it makes a weird noise. I just bought this car used and it has about 79k miles on it.
I have 2010 toyota corolla (vin# [xxx] ) purchased on oct 31 2009 from sansoneautomall, nj. There is a problem with the steering column initially which started with some unique sound, then from feb 2010 i was seriously facing steering freeze (will get harden) only 15-20% of steering moves when in 0' speed, for this i have visited my dealer service center 3 times but there is no use. Only with lot of disappointment and arguments saying "what is the reason to buy a brand new car to get problems" i was requesting to solve my problem. They simply said, there is nothing we can do if you have no other mean to commute its upto you and if you want you call toyota head quarters for this. I even spent lot of time in calling main toyota nr but simply i get voice message that "there is huge volume of call waiting please wait". I really wonder when i/anyone buy a car from dealer and if they cannot receive me assist me properly "where from i get the justice????". Recently i found two more new problems they are: in a slope road car picks-up acceleration and maintains speed as if it is cruised and once i apply break after a while the speed comes to normal position other prob- fuel indicator stuck up to full level indi' even the fuel is low. With this i'm day by day getting depressed as i spent quite lot of savings (money) on the car to avoid any hassles buying a used car, but unfortunately its a disaster to me. I request to provide me needed solution to fix my depressing situation.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
I have a 2010 toyota corolla with 1,900 miles on it, i purchased the veh in the middle of november. After purchasing the vehicle i began to notice that my right arm would collect static electricity when i would place it on top of the center arm rest/console. At first i would only get the static spark when i touched the metal frame of my door, then when i entered the vehicle i would once again collect the static electricity on my right arm from the center arm rest/console. I began to just not pay attention to the static build up i would get until yesterday december 29, 2010. I excited my vehicle and proceeded to open my gas compartment door, as i touched the compartment door, i received the static spark. Now i am becoming concern because it happen when i touched the compartment door had it happened a few seconds later i could have been pumping gas. I drove to the toyota dealer near my home and was asked to sit in another 2010 toyota corolla and i also build up static electricity, then they had me sit in a 2010 toyota camry and nothing happened. Clearly the type of material used on the center arm rest/console is causing this static build up on my arm. The material used in the camry is not causing this. The dealer told me that they didn't know of any static complaints. I would like to have someone investigate this, it isn't safe to go pump gas while having static electricity. I can show anyone who would like to see it how the hairs on my arm stand up once i touch the center arm rest/console.
1. Weather stripping will not stay on driver door2. Cd player of radio system was throwing out the 6 cd's as driving- replaced stereo.3. Under 70,000 miles- cv joint went out - replaced.prior to replacement loud clunking sounds and steering difficult- other owners same issues i am reading.needs recalled4. Appx 77.000 miles no warning alternator went out and was extremely hot and smelly-replaced.5. Appx 78,000 miles between 25-35 mph transmission keeps slipping. I was driving down a street and once on interstate it hit the other gear hard/clunked- toyota dealer called toyota and they said replace transmission.currently in the shop.called toyota and filed a case- they respectively understand my concern, however, they did not seem concerned of the safety hazard of this issue and probability of this issue causing a death. I have friend same issue and i have read about this same issue on the internet.there needs to be a recall. Luckily it did not go out on me driving on the interstate going 70mpg.scared of the vehicle and distrust competency of toyota.are they unwilling to admit the transmission problem is a safety issue?needs recalled or investigated please help the consumer.i am worried about others safety.
The car battery keeps dying on this vehicle even though the battery has been replaced and checked multiple times.the dealer claims a ground cable on the underside is corroded and "fixed" it- but the problem still occurs. My guess is this is a design defect.it's scary to drive a car that might leave you stranded every time you turn it off. This has been ongoing for the past 6 months.
My 2007 toyota corolla had a failed ecm which caused the check engine light to come and stall theengine. In addition, my vehicle had high rpm and shifting gear problems as well. The failed ecm issue was discovered by a specific code for check engine light. I called toyota and they were certainly aware of the problem however told me that they did not have enough complaints to recall the issue. I called toyota dealer and they informed since my mileage was 95,000 and the warranty would only cover up to 80,000 miles. I ended up getting the ecm replaced for about $800 at carmax which was $700 cheaper than what toyota wanted to charge. I called toyota headquarters again to complain and was left with no resolution. After my research online, this was a well known problem to toyota however they failed to address this issue. This issue occurred to many vehicles as low as 35000 miles under warranty and still continue to occur out of warranty over 80000 miles. I feel if they had a recall on this issue, i would have never had these issues with my car being stalled and having to replace the ecm. I recently read an article in news about your involvement in regards to investigation of this issue and hope toyota can recognize to accept this failed recall. I have also found many other toyota customers who are all over the internet sharing similar feedback. Http://www.toyotanation.com/forum/showthread.php?t=201631i am hoping that your team can hold toyota accountable for this poor decision of not to recall this issue. Please contact me for any follow up questions in regards to this issue at [xxx] [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Re: i haven't followed up on rcmn-10v017-5275 as i hadn't noticed a problemliving 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 thatmy 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.
I am driving my car going approx. 45 - 55miles a hour when suddenly the check engine light comes on. When this occurs the car gradually begins to slow down and will not allow me to accelerate. I can press the pedal down but the car does not read that i am pressing the pedal. Stability control light begins to blink and car gradually comes to a full stop. When i pull over the rpms are revving above 1 rpm but i am not pressing the gas. This has been going on and the dealer simply told one time i needed a new battery. I bought it from them. They said your alternator is bad and i replaced it and check engine and stability light come on again. I shouldn't have so many problem with a car that was bought brand new and is not even 2yrs old.
I have felt that there is a problem with the brakes of my 2010 toyota corolla since shortly after i bought it.the brakes vibrate or pulsate without warning.it seems that the abs is activated for no reason.i am not stopping short and the road has not been slippery .i brought the car to the dealer and they claimed that there is nothing wrong with the brakes.another problem i have noticed with the brakes is that they seem to grind when i am braking over bumpy surfaces.it happens with out warning, i never know when it will occur.i called the dealer and the mechanic said it is just the abs, nothing to worry about.the problem seem similar to the prius brake complaints.finally, i noticethat sometimes as i am stopping that the brakesseem to slip a little but then take hold.
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.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While switching into the right lane at approximately 70 mph in rainy weather, the vehicle jerked to the right and hydroplaned. As a result, the contact crashed into the median. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained body pain and headaches that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to an impound lot. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 120,000.
At approximately 0600 on the above date i experienced a violent and near uncontrollable momentary disrupture of the abs/esc systems of my 2010 toyota corolla. Vehicle shook violently, steering locked and abs and esc control lights on dash lit up while i was making the transition from ih37 south to ih35 south in san antonio, tx. I was able to regain control by letting off of the brakes and throttle thus coasting through the left hand turn and barely missing the retaining wall. This is not the first time this has happened, the first was only days after purchase of car. Local dealer maintenance personnel stated "we can't find anything wrong with the car." during the warranty period the problem has been brought to the attention of mccollums toyota five other times all with the same "we can't find anything wrong" reply. Complaints of soft brake pedal brought a similar "that's normal" retort each time the vehicle was in for service. After the warranty expired, front rotors and pads were replaced because they were found to have worn/groved approximately 1/8" deep per side (not reported by dealer), not from metal to metal contact but just wear from pads friction material. Pads still had 1/2" of friction material on each. Replacement of rotors and pads from auto zone made things better until now. Request abs/esc software be checked on all 2008 to 2012 corolla/scion tc models along with check of materials used in pads and the rotors. Oem rotors taken off car will be available until 15 jan 2012. 36,000 miles on a set of rotors and pads are a little extreme when i have over 125,000 on my gm's rotors and 165,000 on my ford's rotorswith pads needing replacement around 45 to 55 k.
The vsc light is flashing, the traction control warning light is on as well as the check engine light. The traction control button does not work either now. I plugged in an obd scanner and got a c1201 error code which we were not able to clear. I don't recall if we were moving, parked out just turned the car on when the lights started but they will not shut off when the car is running.

Check engine and vsc lights blinking. Hangs up in third gear. Had code pulled. Shift solenoid closed. This seems to be an ongoing problem with these cars. Dealerships just give you the runaround. Problem is caused by the failing ecu. This has been going on for years and no recall. This is not only a headache to drive but also unsafe.
Vehicle purchased with 7,418 miles on it. While driving at a speed of 50mph and above the vehicle will wander without turning the steering wheel. Constant steering correction is required to keep vehicle straight.vehicle steering wheel is very out of sync with vehicle wheels when driving from a stand still and moving at a very slow speed and turning.
I am the owner of a 2010 toyota corolla, whose vin number is: [xxx]. That car had a low mileage when i brought to germain toyota in naples, florida, to fix any problem at that time that had caused the "engine light" to appear on the dash. I was told that the "gas cap" was the problem and that i needed to replace it; i followed their recommendation. But, one day after the same light appeared again.disappear; therefore, i decided not to come back for that same thing. Recently, in several occasions the car suddenly stopped working while i was driving it both in local and highway 75 without any warning or sign that such thing was going to happen: ?the gas pedal just goes to zero, that means the pressure went quickly and suddenly to no pressure, and three lights are shown on the dash.? thank god, i am still alive! i took the car to germain toyota, they had urged me to replace the "battery," which i did. The problem resurfaced the day after. The second time, they asked me to replace the "ecu," which i did. That cost me more than $800, close to $900. The three lights reappeared after two days. I came brought the car back to germain toyota, they told me that it was another thing that caused the problem. Last week, the first week of december, i brought it back to them for the same lights, and they told me to replace again the "gas cap," i paid another money, but the same problem continues to go on and on and persist every week. The dealer refuses to acknowledge and accept that it is a factory defect. Those things happened both in streets and highway i-75.i do not feel safe to continue to drive it anymore, and i do not want to sell it to place someone else's life in peril. Therefore, i ask your department for help. I cannot keep on spending almost every week for the same problem. I thank you in advance!information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
My car suddenly turn on most of the dash lights: brake,abs, power steering, and the speedometer , temperature gauge, revolution gauge and air conditioner stop working. The vehicle was stationary when all tis problems stated start to happen
Car spunout of control crossing three lanes , the steering wheelwas hard to control spinning right and left as i struggled to maintain control the vehicle .
I bought a toyota corolla 2010 le on 04/03/2010, and when i drove it on the freeway first time, i was shocked/scared the way was steering/handling. I almost had two accidents with it because of the steering issue. When i drove it on the freeway i saw that the car is loosing balance (the back car shakes), i found stability problems (as if i drive in strong winds), and big steering problems (as i learn to drive a tricky bicycle). To get and maintain an almost control on the car direction i have to focus my actions as my corolla has only two wheels like a bike. I almost act as an equilibrate for a rope dancing. The experience of driving my corolla showed that i have limited control over it, and most control i lost when i had to use sudden brakes at high speed - it was like on the ice. Back jumps and i stir in same direction; back jumps again in the other direction and i change the steering in the other direction too, and so on. These events occur almost every time i drove with speed around 60 miles/hour on the freeways that are not straight. The consequence is that i am afraid to drive my new car because i am not able to control it, and i risk an accident. I went to toyota dealer, they said that they know the situation from other customers too, but nothing they can do about it. Please investigate this issues until is not too late, and people make accidents and injure.thank you.
The driver door caught on fire while i was driving.
Vehicle stability control light flashing, engine light is on, vehicle is revving too fast, accelerator has no response. Toyota dealer informed me about the throttle is defected & they have no fix for it. They may have to contact toyota corporate for fix. I have done previous recall on it also. I think the vehicle is defected "lemon". Toyota should replace the vehicle or reimburse me the whole amount.
Tengo un corolla y tngo problemas con la dieccion de mi auto una ves estaba en el freeway como a 60 millas y trate de frenar porq otro auto se me atraveso sin poner su direccional y a alta velocidad y no lo podia controlar el bolante se hacia de un lado a otro eto me preocupa y e llamado a mi vendedor para consular y no me contestan nunca cualquier pregunta llamarme.
Toyota corolla s 2010 [xxx]with extra stabilizer bar kit, purchased 11-30-09 with delivery in 12/09.1) approximately 1 month after purchase ,the car starting to veer sharply right then left when driving on the highway, it was/is difficult to control requiring a tight grip on the wheel.it feels like strong winds are moving the car but winds are absent and road conditions are normal. This event comes and goes unexpectedly, generally lasts the duration of my commute once started, sometimes occurs with the tire pressure gauge but not always, sometimes occursafter rapid braking.it does not feel like an alignment or balance problem, the car darts from one end of the lane, to the median of the lane on its own. On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.
Braking sensor/skid light comes on at random, then occasionally the engine starts braking in traffic, and sometimes threatens to quit, needing to pull off of highway and keep restarting car until i get a smooth sound.(1st time light came on, i skidded on a small patch of ice, the alarm went off, the light came on, and i couldn't figure out what was going on, sure didn't need to warn me i went for a skid, already knew that, didn't like being scared to death by the noise)
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 60 mph, the vehicle swayed left and right without warning. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it could not be diagnosed. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 107,200.
"takata recall" i was in an accident in my 2010 toyota corolla exiting a major interstate on 07/07/2017. The off ramp had a very sharp curve where i lost control (possibly a failure in the stability control system?) and was traveling at around 45mph. I went into a spin and the left rear of my car hit the guardrail, spinning out still my car then hit the guardrail head-on causing the front end to collapse into the motor cavity. The airbags did not deploy causing bruising to my shoulder and abdomen areas. My neck and back were injured causing me to be immobile for a couple of weeks. I have had cat-scans and mri's trying to find out what my injuries are. I have to go to pain management to deal with the everyday pain and my life has been affected greatly. I informed toyota about the airbags and they seemed very concerned. The are investigating the issue and sent out a company called bosch to download information from the cdr box. I am still waiting on toyota's answer to this problem. I was never aware of this recall as i had purchased the car pre-owned from a toyota dealership october of 2015. I also reported the airbag lights going off and on along with other electrical problems to two different toyota dealerships along with allstate insurance company, my provider.
Purchased a new 2010 corolla 4-door sedan s;immediately a problem with the brakes and steering was noticed upon first long drive.when depressed the brakes would go all the way to the floor.steering the car in a straight line down the freeway was almost impossible without constant corrections, i call it nervous steering, which after more than 50 miles because very stressful and tiring. Purchase date 8-22-09. The vehicle was returned to the nearest toyota dealership located in victorville, california early sept 09.the brakes were examined and after certain corrections the brake pedal is better but not perfect.as for the steering..the technician says it's within normal parameters...what every that means.there is definitely a defect with the steering system;after reviewing the vehicle brochure regarding the steering system it reads "electric power steering (eps) helps gives corolla steering response that's effortlessly accurate" however nothing could more from the truth.it's been my experience after 7000 miles on the odometer...that when steering the car down the highway...the car will literally leave the lane your driving in which requires steering correction to keep it in the driving lane you're traveling. The brochure further reads that "eps also eliminates hydraulic-assist components that can reduce fuel economy" however i would say at what cost...if this new system renders the steering process a very nervous and tiring experience for the driver.a fatigued driver is an unsafe driver...i credit the fault with this new system "eps" as a potential disaster waiting to happen. It's my assessment after owning this vehicle now 6 months...that toyota needs to revisit this "eps" system and consider returning to the former hydraulic-assist components...it may more costly for them to build...but at least it worked.i bought this car because it had a reputation for safety and reliability however it's been the absolute worst purchase ever imagined.
While driving my corolla, even i do not hit the gas pedal, the rpm stays around 2000 and sometimes it started to stuck around 3000 rpm for 15 to 30 seconds than goes to normal. I had difficulty to slow down in busy traffic, because even i hit the brakes it does not cut the gas so the engine still tries to run and the car still tends to go, so i am not able to slow down or it takes time to slow down. I am driving my toyota in the 5th gear and around 3000 rpm. When i need a sudden stop, i let go the gas pedal and hit the brake. The etcs commands high idle even i hit the breaks; the pistons are still working (the engine is still running in gear) with 3000 rpm so i am not able to slow down or stop. This is a serious safety problem. How come ecm would command for high idle from time to time? how can i stop the car or slow down in need while ecm is commanding high idle? it is impossible to have a proper control on the car when ecm commands high idle. Who can give me guarantee that it would not get stuck in higher idles? (because it used to stuck around 2000 rpm and right now it also started sticking around 3000 rpm). When i get close to a curb or to an exit i stop hitting the gas pedal assuming the car will get slow but since it sticks at high rpms the car does not get slower when it is in the gear.
The vsc, traction control warning light on the dash will not go off.it continuously flashes and the check engine light starts on as well.i've done everything possible to get it to go off, including having a certified mechanic check it, to no avail.therefore, i'm assuming i have no reaction control whatsoever as it keeps flashing "traction control off".
Car suddenly all the dashboard lights came on at once brake lights,abs lights,power steering lights,and speedometer. I've been to the dealership they ripped me off said they had no clue what was wrong. *ln
Since a recall correction for the smart stop technology, the car will act like it wants to die when stopped and will hesitate before accelerating from a stop. It acts like it wants to quit running if idling to warm up and gas mileage is worse than before.
I purchased a toyota corolla in 2010 and it apparently had a potential cam gear issue.they had put out a tsb alert on the vehicle, however they never disclosed to me that this issue could accur.i've taken it in to their dealership and the cost of repair is $1150.if they would have told me at the time of the purchase that the cam gear could have been an issue i wouldn't have purchased it.they failed to disclose to me any potential issues at the time of sale.this practice is fraudulent and highly unethical.i would like this issue resolved with me and it be corrected for future purschases of others.
When applying the brakes, my car will rev up. Especially when i'm going down hill. Another concern is that my car will make a 2-3 second rattling noise upon starting up. It only makes this noise once in a while and it is coming from the engine. Another issue i'm having is the car's check engine light, track light and vsc off light coming on simultaneously on any rainy day and staying on for several days after it has stopped raining. I avoid driving at fast speeds when its rainy because obviously the car is very unstable. My driver side window wont open or close and very cold days and other days it makes a weird noise. I just bought this car used and it has about 79k miles on it.
I am the owner of a 2010 toyota corolla, whose vin number is: [xxx]. That car had a low mileage when i brought to germain toyota in naples, florida, to fix any problem at that time that had caused the "engine light" to appear on the dash. I was told that the "gas cap" was the problem and that i needed to replace it; i followed their recommendation. But, one day after the same light appeared again.disappear; therefore, i decided not to come back for that same thing. Recently, in several occasions the car suddenly stopped working while i was driving it both in local and highway 75 without any warning or sign that such thing was going to happen: ?the gas pedal just goes to zero, that means the pressure went quickly and suddenly to no pressure, and three lights are shown on the dash.? thank god, i am still alive! i took the car to germain toyota, they had urged me to replace the "battery," which i did. The problem resurfaced the day after. The second time, they asked me to replace the "ecu," which i did. That cost me more than $800, close to $900. The three lights reappeared after two days. I came brought the car back to germain toyota, they told me that it was another thing that caused the problem. Last week, the first week of december, i brought it back to them for the same lights, and they told me to replace again the "gas cap," i paid another money, but the same problem continues to go on and on and persist every week. The dealer refuses to acknowledge and accept that it is a factory defect. Those things happened both in streets and highway i-75.i do not feel safe to continue to drive it anymore, and i do not want to sell it to place someone else's life in peril. Therefore, i ask your department for help. I cannot keep on spending almost every week for the same problem. I thank you in advance!information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
Using engine oil.
Once gain after getting a new engine put into this car 3 months back, our car experienced yet another problem - the oxygen gauge in the exhaust system which is attached to the engine's exhaust manifold has gone bad. While driving the car to work, the engine light and vsc illuminates again. I was under the impression, this is the dealership's fault since it dealing with the engine, or under warranty, but nope. I ended up paying for the repair again. I have never dealt with so many problems in a single car. This car is accident free and never had any major damages done. I believe this car is a faulty car and could be a risk factor to myself, my family and others on the road.
My car is in motion on a city street. The other car driver fails to yield the road approriately, caused accident.airbags are not deployed.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving approximately 2 to 3 mph into a driveway, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle shut off completely smoke and sparks were present in the engine; the vehicle caught fire and the vehicle exploded. The police and fire department were contacted and a report was filed. The manufacturer offered to pick up the vehicle and investigate the failure. They also advised her that it would take 30 days at which time she would receive a letter regarding their findings. Approximately a month later she received a letter from the manufacturer stating that there were no defective parts and her claim was denied. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.
Prematurely failing: struts (repaired summer of 2013), water pump (repaired 10/15/13), brakes (repaired 10/15/13), and alternator (yet to be repaired).
I was starting to back out of a diagonal parking spaceand suddenly the car rapidlyaccelerated and backed across two lanes of downtown business traffic colliding with avehicle parked diagonally across the street.whenmy vehicle started accelerating i stomped on my brake but the car did not stop until it hit the other vehicle.i believe this is an incident of "unintended low-speed surging" as reported on the internet and under nhtsa action number dp14003.
The car suddenly stopped and soon caught fire by itself when i was driving on 101 & lawrence express, california. Report shown by insurance company said "found cyl #1 rod is bent and has punctured the eng. Block causing oil to leak also the block impacted the ac compressor possibly causing the veh to catch fire melting the ac compressor harness,rf wheel speed harness,front bumper,wheel and wheel liner.no other failures seen or demo" this happened a week after i had my car inspected and maintained. Tried to reach toyota, but they are not responding.
Excessive oil consumption. My 2010 corolla has suddenly started burning (not leaking) oil at the rate of 1 quart per every 1500 miles. I noticed this happening a few months ago and have been carefully watching it. My mechanic said it is most likely a defective engine or piston rings. Very costly to repair. I believe toyota knowingly put these defective engines in the 2010 corolla. They put the same engine in other corollas up to 2009. Obviously in the 2010 also. Please look into this. I'm sure that i am not the only one with this issue. What are my options?
When needing to accelerate the car takes off like a jet rocket when the pedal is pressed. The car seems to be out of control and shaking violently. This happens usually on highway when going above 50. Feels very unsafe. This is a used car i bought. This happens on a regular basis.
Please note:problem with the engine.engine light come on a lot, but when i had it checked, they could not find out why it continue to come on.
2010 toyota corolla.consumer writes in regards to steering and other vehicle problems. The consumer stated the skid light would come on at any time, even if she was driving slowly. When going around a corner, controlling the steering was somewhat of a problem. If it were snowing, or raining, the rear end would slide out to the point, the skid light would come on. There were times, when the vehicle would not start. The consumer also stated she heard a clicking sound from the vehicle, then all of a sudden, the vehicle took off.the incident happened severalmore times.updated 11/13/14
Two issues: radio controls fail; usually when outside temps near/above 100f.touching any control turns off radio, spits out cd.causes me to focus on radio instead of driving.dealer no help.seen the problem listed by others online inc. Youtube video of the radio acting up.2nd issue: just had to replace water pump, approx. 150,000 miles.appears there was some sort of recall but i did not receive any notice. Replaced 7/16/16
After dealer did smartstop technology up date, over a period of a few months the engine performance has dropped off, as has the gas mileage by about 5mpg with no change in driving habits. Talked to dealer on 12/11/2014 and was informed the car has to relearn these functions. Asked how long this would take and was told a few months which i find unacceptable. Mileage on car now is about 28000, to me that is more than enough time to relearn all functions.
Upon purchasing this car from carmax on 02/2012 there had been constant transmission issues that were not being resolved from the dealership. I had gone in and tried having my transmission looked at three times a the carmax dealership all of which told me that nothing was wrong with my car. On 07/26/2014 my 2010 toyota's transmission failed and now needs a new one. This out of pocket expense is ridiculous for a car that was built in 2010 and for myself owning it for two years. Both the toyota dealership and carmax dealership are not willing help assist the problem. I will never purchase a toyota car again. Updated 4/24/2015
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving various speeds, the vehicle would swerve to the right and left. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the technician stated that the vehicle was functioning normally. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 25 and the current mileage was 43,749.updated 03/05/14*ljthe consumer also stated the vehicle would hesitate at times, and it wouldn't accelerate. There was a burning smell coming from the vehicle, an issue with the ignition and the front end.
I change oil regularly every 5000 miles. At 187,775 miles changed oil and only 1.25qt came out. Next oil change roughly 192,000 only 2qt came out. Oil capacity is around 4.4 qt. No oil leaks so this engine is burning oil 2qt every 5000 miles.
My toyota corolla 2010 car has manual transmission. When i drove at about 35mph on city street and hit brake pedal, engine suddenly roared to 8000rpm. I depressed the clutch fully, turned off engine, hit hard the brake pedal,turned left to median; the car hit hard the median curb and stopped partly in left lane. After several attempts on pedals and turned on engine, it still roared in the first several tries. The car eventually worked normally after 10 minutes and no injury happened. I never let the engine run over 5000rpm even when i tested the car and engine; my maximal running rpm is about 3000. This 8000rpm should not be from my operation. I was not convinced on 'stick pedal" or "floor mat" cause for this case.the sequence "turned off engine, braked" might be good to "braked to stop and turned off engine" because it is too hard to brake with engine off. But, when you hear the scary 8000rpm roaring engine, the first reaction is turn it off.i have scheduled an appointment with dealer.
Cold start rattling.when car sit there for couple hours then start up, engine rattles for a brief 1-2 secondscamshaft failure/chain tensioner improper install
The car was parked in the garage. It was running in park with the emergency brake on.my wife put her foot on the brake and released the emergency brake. At the same time she released the emergency brake the engine revved up dramatically. The rpm's increased as if she had the accelerator pedal to the floor. It kept that up until she shut off the engine.
My family and i bought a brand new toyota corolla 2010 le from lustine toyota, woodbridge, virginia in 2010.for the past five years, since we owed the vehicle, we have did all the oil, filter changes, and the required maintenance, i.e., tire rotations, alignment, and the different miles inspection on time and never missed a single maintenance or check-ups.we can provide proper documentations, if needed.when the car reached the 34,000 miles, the engine light came on and the vehicle started to shake. We took the vehicle to the lustine toyota dealership and they fix the vehicle.the dealership informed us that it was a part of a recall issue, and no fees would be required from our side.however, we have recently faced the same issue this past week, and the car has now reached more that 89,000 miles.once again, we had the vehicle serviced by lustine toyota, who then informed us the vehicle needs a new engine, which is about a $8,000.00 expense.i recently filed a compliant with the toyota cooperation, who refused to acknowledge fault and wants to provide me with $2,000.00 to replace family's car.my family and i were not expecting this exhaustive expense and a $2,000.00 credit is not enough to purchase another vehicle. This is a very frustrating experience for myself and my family. I have children under the age of 5, which are also traumatized and afraid of the car's condition to operate safely (my children were in the vehicle at the time the vehicle shook vigorously). I would greatly appreciate the cooperation from the national highway traffic safety administration (nhtsa) investigating this matter further and explain why my vehicle is experiencing so many issues and problems.i am appalled by toyota's cooperation and i would never recommend anyone to purchase or consider leasing vehicles from toyota.horrible customer and service experience.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While at a stop light, the engine revved independently and the vehicle began to shake. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing, but the results were unknown. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.
The contact owned a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the vehicle caught fire while parked. The fire department extinguished the fire. The vehicle was destroyed and towed to an insurance lot. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 122,000.
After starting the engine and driving approximately 100 feet, the dashboard lights: abs, anti skid symbol, battery and oil lamp appeared.lost power steering, windshield wipers ceased, it was raining heavily.drove approximately 6 miles to home.the next morning, car started without any issues, drove approximately 100 feet, the same lights appeared and power steering again ceased.able to drive approximately 5 miles to work.made an appointment with dealership for after work.car immediately started with the above mentioned lights appearing again and without power steering.drove approximately 2 miles, all power in car stopped, and car immediately stopped.was unable to restart car, car was towed to dealership, where the service member stated the car needed a new alternator. When asked why this would occur with only 25000 miles, the service department was unable to give me a response. The alternator was costly.i am the original owner, purchased this car in july, 2009.service my car regularly as suggested in manual at a toyota dealership.i am disappointed with needing such a costly repair as i have never experienced this in the past with other makes of cars.all of which i have owned for 8 to 10 years each.
I am driving my car going approx. 45 - 55miles a hour when suddenly the check engine light comes on. When this occurs the car gradually begins to slow down and will not allow me to accelerate. I can press the pedal down but the car does not read that i am pressing the pedal. Stability control light begins to blink and car gradually comes to a full stop. When i pull over the rpms are revving above 1 rpm but i am not pressing the gas. This has been going on and the dealer simply told one time i needed a new battery. I bought it from them. They said your alternator is bad and i replaced it and check engine and stability light come on again. I shouldn't have so many problem with a car that was bought brand new and is not even 2yrs old.
I was driving my car yesterday and as i went to accelerate the car didn't move so i pushed the gas pedal again and it went real slow. Then the car jerked and began to smoke really bad so i pulled over and open the hood and flames began to shoot out.
2010 toyota corolla. Consumer states several concerns regarding this vehicle *tgwthe consumer stated at times when applying the brake lightly, they grab abruptly.at times, when accelerating from a stop, he had no control over the amount acceleration delivered to the vehicle.the speed would increase more than desired.at speeds above 35 mph, when in overdrive, the engine speed would suddenly drop. The dealer confirmed the problem and toyota's response was the torque converter locked up and caused the engine speed to change and they recommended the consumer shift to third gear.
Since purchasing this vehicle in july 2009, when braking and coming to a stop, the 2010 toyota corolla frequently shudders as if it is going to stall, although it has not yet stalled.this was reported to the dealer (ira toyota manchester) during 5k mile routine maintenance on 1-30-10 and they responded that they have had about a dozen complaints about this from different owners and they don't know what the problem is.nothing was done.
Vehicle stability control light flashing, engine light is on, vehicle is revving too fast, accelerator has no response. Toyota dealer informed me about the throttle is defected & they have no fix for it. They may have to contact toyota corporate for fix. I have done previous recall on it also. I think the vehicle is defected "lemon". Toyota should replace the vehicle or reimburse me the whole amount.
When i was driving my toyota corolla 2010 on 12/29/2011 at around 10.30 pm, suddenly i felt that the steering was so rigid to turn and noticed in the car dashboard warning indicator lights for abs, engine malfunction/check engine indicator, brake, vsc off, were illuminating. And the vehicle was totally stopped in the middle of the road. I was totally shocked!!!!!!!!!!! i tried again to start the vehicle but it failed.i towed the car to toyota dealer and they ran vehicle testand told me that throttle body assembly has to be replaced. When this incident happened the mileage of the vehicle was approximately 9020. I called and wrote to toyota usa regarding this issue but didn't get any reply even after 6 days!!!!!!!!!
Bought new dec 18, 2009. Toyota corolla le 14 miles. When you go to stop at a red light or stop sign. The engine some times acts like it is going to stall. You touch the brakes just as you come to a dead stop. The engine rpms will drop to about 300 rpms the engine will shutter all most die and then go backto normal rpms about 500 to 600 hundred. This is an intermittent problem. You can not make the car do this. You may drive it 5 times and it will not do anything like that. You drive it the next time and it will do it three times in a roll when you stop. It has done this from the time it was new.
I took my 2010 toyota corolla s in for service on 9/26/14 at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 for a regular service. All service has been completed at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 since i purchase the brand new vehicle from them. The service representative informed me that my car had a timing cover leak that was to cost me approximately $1,300.00 to fix and that if i continued to drive it the leak would get worse. I am out of my two year warranty time period. The service representative told me that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the last two weeks with the same issue and one of them was even as low as $18,000 miles. He stated that at some point there would probably be a recall. I called toyota headquarters and opened case number [xxx] and wait to hear what their solution is. I advised that anything less than full repair by toyota at no charge to me would be unacceptable. Such an issue should not potentially happen in a vehicle until 100,000 to 110, 000 miles. The fact that the service rep said that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the lat two weeks is a serious red flag.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

I have a toyota corolla 2010 which i bought in the first week of august 2009. While i was driving to sacramento around last august, my car lost power in the middle of a freeway. I was in the fast lane, and unable to operate the car. I realized that the engine was not there, it went off, no power and the car decreased its speed and finally stopped. Fortunately i was able to get out in the left emergence lane. If it was a rush hour and traffic was busy, i would have an accident. Fortunately, there was no accident. After thinking for 5 minutes or so, i turned on the engine and started driving again. Last week i went to toyota dealer (for the recall) and told my situation. But they didn't give much attention to my concerns. I know come to realize that this may not be my problem and someone may have the same problem. I need help how this happen and if the problem occurs in other area, please prevent it happening again. So that we will save life.
Purchased a new 2010 corolla. Driving home from work last week, i had two service lights on (my car has 1400 miles on it). The steering in the car seemed "loose" as i drove home, but when i went to turn on my street, the steering wheel did not turn and the abs failed. I hit a curb on the opposite side of the road damaging a strut and an alloy wheel. My local dealer, lakeland toyota, told me it was not their problem but that i needed to figure out how to pay for the repairs. They told me that they had no idea why those two warning lights were on.i am currently trying to work with toyota corporate to get this resolved in a manner that i will feel safe driving the car.kind of hard to do when they refuse to accept that there is a problem.

2010 rapid acceleration when pushing down the brake pedal.the drivers floor mat was loose & when i pushed on the brake my heels pushed the mat into the accelerator pedal.3 toyota dealers say no recalls grossinger - oak brook / westmont & libertyville...
I bought a 2010 toyota corollafor my away-from-home college-student daughter.we were aware of the floormat problem when we bought the car and took delivery on october 28, 2009.the accelerator issue became known in january, 2010.the power steering issue just became public this week.i drove the car for two weeks after taking delivery to check it out for any manufacturing defects and to break it in.i did not notice any unusual behaviors for any of these problems while driving around town during this break-in period.however, i did notice when i was on the interstate while delivering the car to my daughter that the electrically-assisted power steering had an unusual vagueness to it.the car felt like it was being buffeted by high wind or turbulence from following a tractor-trailer too closely, even though the wind was calm and there were no trucks within one mile of me.as i made very minor course corrections as the road curved or to change lanes, it felt like the steering was being over-boosted, which caused a bigger path correction than intended or expected.then i got a similar reaction in the opposite direction when i tried to correct the over-correction.i think it would be fair to say that the steering wheel felt as if it was connected to the front wheels with a rope.the car has goodyear eagle rs-a tires; i have had several sets of these tires of different sizes in the past, and don't believe they are a problem.i have driven other vehicles with electrically-boosted power steering and and i don't recall such behavior.indeed, i have a class b cdl to drive motorcoaches and the older ones with over 1/2 million miles on them have more direct steering.this situation has not caused an accident; i just want to weigh in on the potential problem.i have offered my daughter another car to drive, but she insists on driving the corolla.
Entered head in parking spot in enclosed public garage, car was positioned crooked within lines, backed up minimal feet to correct to a parallel position, put in drive (foot on brake) car lurched forward violently perhaps 5 to 6 feet into a braided restraining cable at the front of the space.front end damage to body, headlight, jammed passenger door, front of hood, possible radiator and/or a/c condenser. Repairs are beginning at toyota collision center, 410-525-1000, 15001 s.caton ave. Halethorpe (baltimore) maryland .estimate is $3500 - my share $1000 deductible with liberty mutual. Floor mat recall has been done and fix was completed, have not been notified yet re steering column cable repair.a check on thenhtsawebsite of my serial number does not include this car in the acceleration issue. If nothing else, i would like to have the gas pedal correction in this recall to be done on my car anyway, even though it does not show in your recall listing - can this be done?? can you request this of my dealer - russel toyota 6324 baltimore national pike (410-788-8400) - baltimore, md??otherwise, i will be scared that this could occur again at any time!!
Drove into a gas station to buy gas, put car in park, stepped out to pump case, noticed car moving, jump in to stop it, car accelerated and crashed into building, causing damage to both car and building.
There was no wreck, my horn does not work dash lights stay on lighter acts like there's a short and the electrical in console doesn't work.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that frequently has a strong gas smell and on 3 different occasions the steering has given me a sense of control loss similar to the sensation of hydroplaning.
2010 toyota corolla first experienced problems june 2010(car purchased march 2010) on a warm day i.e. 90 degrees the engine shut down, coasts to a stop.still able to steer to get off the road.wait 10 to 15 minutes and car will restart.the first time this occurred my son was driving the vehicle, totally shocked him.the next time i was driving on an interstate through a congested mountain pass, was fortunate that no semi trucks were directly behind me and that there was a shoulder on this stretch.took into dealer after same experience on 2 trips.they were unable to determine a problem.june 2011 drove 200 miles on the road, then drove in town same day with multiple stops.driving at approx. 35 mph, car jerked, stepped on gas with no response.able to coast to a stop at a red light.with traffic backing up behind us and car would not restart, driver behind us and my octogenarian father pushed the car around the corner to a church parking lot.called triple aaa for a tow, after waiting a half hour tried to start car.it started.called triple aaa to cancel tow.during the next 1 to 2 miles the engine shut down 3 more times and each time was able to coast out of the roadway.finally had vehicle towed to local toyota dealer.they examined vehicle next morning and i was told that there is a problem with the fuel pump on 2010 and 2011 toyota corollas in heat and at altitude.engineers are working on a new fuel pump.toyota does not know when a new pump will be available.i no longer feel safe driving the vehicle as you do not know when the engine will shut down.was told by the dealer the vehicle is safe to drive.just put on flashers and coast to side of the road.of course there may not be a place to pull over and what happens if you are in heavy traffic on the freeway with many vehicles going 70 mph.toyota knows there is a problem and they are telling customers to continue driving the vehicle.this doesn't make sense.
The gas pedal suck to the floor when accelerating with the cruise control on. I pulled off road, put car in neutral and shut motor off. Gas pedal was still stuck to floor. Tried pulling pedal up to no avail. Turned ignition to the on position and pedal still stuck. After stomping it several times gas pedal unstuck. You could here something underneath the hood release it. Definitely not a floor mat problem!!
I have 2010 toyota corolla (vin# [xxx] ) purchased on oct 31 2009 from sansoneautomall, nj. There is a problem with the steering column initially which started with some unique sound, then from feb 2010 i was seriously facing steering freeze (will get harden) only 15-20% of steering moves when in 0' speed, for this i have visited my dealer service center 3 times but there is no use. Only with lot of disappointment and arguments saying "what is the reason to buy a brand new car to get problems" i was requesting to solve my problem. They simply said, there is nothing we can do if you have no other mean to commute its upto you and if you want you call toyota head quarters for this. I even spent lot of time in calling main toyota nr but simply i get voice message that "there is huge volume of call waiting please wait". I really wonder when i/anyone buy a car from dealer and if they cannot receive me assist me properly "where from i get the justice????". Recently i found two more new problems they are: in a slope road car picks-up acceleration and maintains speed as if it is cruised and once i apply break after a while the speed comes to normal position other prob- fuel indicator stuck up to full level indi' even the fuel is low. With this i'm day by day getting depressed as i spent quite lot of savings (money) on the car to avoid any hassles buying a used car, but unfortunately its a disaster to me. I request to provide me needed solution to fix my depressing situation.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle stalled.the contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that the rear fuel line was fractured and leaking fuel. The contact was concerned because the fuel line was manufactured with plastic. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnostics where the technician stated that the fuel line would have to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vin was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 46,000.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that is part of the accelerator pedal reinforcement bar recall/installation. I have noticed another problem that appears to also involve the accelerator. This vehicle has a 5 speed manual transmission. The problem occurs in both 3rd and 4th gear. This problem is not consistent meaning it is not always noticed every time i drive, i would maintain that it occurs at least 50% of the time however. Problem: i attempt to maintain a constant speed for instance in 3rd gear at 30 mph, the vehicle feels as if it wants to speed up, i then remove some pressure from the accelerator, the vehicle then slow by jerking, i then attempt to accelerate and the vehicle jerks again,bottom line is i can not maintain a constant speed. The road conditions do not matter, flat, hill, bumpy, smooth, wet dry, 30 mph, 31 mph, 32, mph etc. I cannot maintain a constant speed in 3rd and 4th gear. I am not sure of an approximate date, it has happened numerous times since i purchased the vehicle in august of 2009. I will just enter a random date below.
For entire time owned - there is a gap of seconds between pressing gas pedal and actual acceleration. When i press gas pedal there is a hesitation leading me to press harder. Then of course the car has a sudden sprint in acceleration. This is not safe. I have had the car for 5.5 months so i am getting better at waiting instead of pressing harder. But i feel this is definitely a defect. I inquired over phone with service manager where i purchased - explanation: i am not use to a 4 cylinder, which i believed because i have never driven a 4 cylinder. But, i am beginning not to believe this excuse.*tw
I rented a toyota corolla from an interprise agency, and it is stinky inside when driving it. I had been vomiting because of the strong smell of carbon monoxide. When a blow my nose dirt come out, and the car is also liking alot of oil. This situation is a health problem. This is a toyota 2010 please take them out of the market.thank you
2010 toyota corolla w/gas pedal that sticks very often during initial acceleration.has done this probably 100-200 times since purchasing in september.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the service engine light illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership where the contact was informed that nothing was wrong with the vehicle. A few days later, the service engine light illuminated again so the vehicle was taken back to the dealership. The dealer stated that there was a hole in the fuel line and wires under the hood were chewed away. The current and failure mileages were unknown.
I bought a 2010 toyota corolla s on oct. 22, 2009. At bitterroot motors in missoula, montana. The day after i bought the car i drove it to ovando, montana, north of missoula, on a tryout road trip. I noticed that it was flighty on the road and seemed to waver without reason (no wind, no semi trucks, wind shear, rain, etc). Being a new car to me, i passed it off as the nature of a lighter and smaller vehicle than what i was accustomed to driving (my other vehicle is a 2004 ford f150). Since that time, i have continually experienced this with no external explanation (ie: weather, road conditions, etc). This problem seems to happen at speeds of 50 mph and over and it is a consistent issue. I commute regularly between stevensville, mt., and missoula, mt., for work (28 miles one way), and i often find that the car will drift left or right when i am at a steady speed. This is in addition to the fact that my vehicle is on the list of recalls for the recent accelerator issue. I need to add here that the second day after buying the car, i was getting fuel and as i turned from the pump to re-enter the car, "pop!!" and the driver side window totally shattered. I immediately called the dealer at bitterroot motors and drove it to their service dept to get it fixed. They replaced the window under warranty, and told me they suspected it was a preexisting stress fracture in the glass that finally gave. I bought this car based on safety ratings, consumer reports ratings, and to get better gas mileage on my necessary trips to and from work. It isn't hard to understand the stress of this situation, not to mention economic hardship. I paid for the car outright ($18,075) and it physically sickens me to think that such serious issues exist. I haven't even owned it 5 months! at this point i am fearful of even driving the car. If the world worked in good ways, toyota would replace this vehicle completely, and preferably with something other than another toyota.
This vehicle uses a drive by wire (dwb) accelerator. When you press on the gas the car lurches forward. This happened on a rental car in 2010 and still is a problem on the used toyota i purchased. When i contacted toyota they stated there was no recall information. They asked me to have the vehicle diagonized at my expense, which i refused to do. This is a problem and based on information on the net others are having the same problem. I have owned many cars and not one has had such a touchy pedal.
Im car sometimes try's to stall out while im driving or sitting at a stop light. It sounds like it is being choked out or isn't getting enough fuel. This has been happening on and off for a number of year's and the dealer does not know why.
The vehicle suddenly turned off while i was making a right hand turn. I was able to start the engine immediately in neutral. This has occurred 4 more times in similar circumstances. However, last night, while turning the car wheel to the left and right rapidly to avoid an object on the street, the car lost power. All the warning and control lights in the instrument panel were turned on for 3 to 4 seconds but the car started on its own. That is, i did not have to turn the ignition key on as in previous 4 occasions. I made an appointment with the dealer for tomorrow morning.
My 2010 toyota kept stalling out, mostly when it was in idle mode.if i was driving a slower speed, it would sometimes lose power and when i pushed on the gas pedal, there was nothing there...like air.it would stall out if i was sitting in traffic over minutes. I had to put it in neutral and keep my foot on the gas pedal to keep it idled up.initially i was told it was the ignition coils, which i had replaced. Then the spark plugs were replaced.then the air mass sensor.and my battery.also the repair shop did some adjustment to the throttle.none off that repaired the vehicle; it was still stalling out just out of the blue.the last repair shop said they only saw one code in the computer and it was giving them a reading where the fuel pump had something like a "vapor lock" and was not sending out fuel like it was supposed to. This car has been stalling out on us since april 2019 and has had replacement parts that did not fix the problem.my fuel pump was finally replaced on february 21,2020 and so far it has not stalled out at all, even when it's in idle mode.cost to repair it was $901.67.
Our 2010 toyota corolla xle with 74,000 miles experienced complete engine failure due to a defective fuel pump. We own and operate this car at about 1,000 feet (omaha nebraska). My daughter drove this car north west towards the eisenhower edwin c. Johnson memorial tunnel in colorado and the engine completely shut down.very little warning as the engine shuttered and came to a complete and unexpected stop in the middle of northbound traffic on highway 70. My daughter almost got hit by a couple of cars as she reattempted the climb towards the eisenhower edwin c. Johnson memorial tunnel. But to no avail. She took this car to stevenson auto in lakewood colorado for diagnosis, but they couldn't recreate the problem because they are allowed to drive only 20 miles or so and the car was towed 27 miles from highway 70 to their dealership (the closest toyota dealer).they told my daughter to go back home to omaha nebraska because there aren't any fuel pump problems at low altitude. Btw, the toyota tsb is entitled "extended crank at altitude".
I have been having a dangerous fuel pump issue for some time. I believe this to be the same issue that they have a fuel pump issue for 2018 & 2019 toyotas! i believe toyota has known about this for some time. My 2010 toyota corolla has been backfiring, stalling out, & shutting off when i get into heavy or standstill traffic, which is very dangerous. It stalled out & shut off in the middle of robbins street (3 lane 1 way street) near the tacony palmyra bridge due to a bridge opening that backed up traffic for over 45 minutes 1 day on my way home from work. When the bridge finally opened, i was almost hit several times. Luckily a mechanic came by & he was able to get it started again. I did take it to aaa service center in mt laurel nj & they did diagnosed that it is a fuel pump issue that will cost $2,273.40. Again i believe toyota has known about this for some time similar to the brake recall that they had some time ago. This is a very dangerous issue. This issue still continues...

The car seems to increase in speed even when applying the brakes. The electrical system is not functioning properly. The digital display radio seldom works, the anti skid control does not activate, the lights, both inside and out blink on and off, including headlights at night. The ac and heating unit cuts on and off. It seems as if the entire electrical system in the car is in need of repair.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving 60 mph, a burning odor and smoke emitted from the driver's side door control switch. The contact stated that he disconnected the switch as a temporary remedy to prevent a possible fire. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the technician diagnosed that the master switch needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and offered to cover half of the repair costs. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 31,800.
Feb. 15, 2010to: national highway safety administrationre.:defect in toyota corollai recently reported to both my local toyotal dealership and to toyota motor sales usa (national customer relations, 9001 southwestern ave, dept. Wc11;torrance, ca90509) that the play on the trunk lid on our 2010 corolla was so loose that even though the trunk lid would be pushed all the way up, a sudden gust of wind would send it flying down on whoever was loading items into the trunk.this has happened on several occasions to my wife.on one occasion the lid came down on my wife's head and again on her arm on several different occasions.please see the attached photo showing the effect of the lid being blown down on her arm.the dealer agreed that compared to the trunk lid on my camry, the lid on the corolla did indeed swing too freely and that the cause was a design flaw as the lid was functioning within the manufacturer's specifications .the dealer suggested that i contact toyota.i did that, explained the situation, and was assigned case.nothing has been done regarding this design flaw.perhaps you can convince toyota to reduce the "play" on the trunk lid so that we can actually use the trunk of the car without experiencing injury.

Toyota 2010 corolla brake system failed. The emergency brake went on , while i was driving without me doing anything. The odometer stopped working, brake, check-engine, panic mode and airbag system lights went on. The failure has occurred twice already, first starting as a brake failure, then almost leading to the accident when everything failed at once. Almost got into an accident and i couldn't accelerate in the car. I took the car to the dealership and they gave me run around, they still don't know how to fix it or what's wrong with it. This car is beyond unsafe to drive, luckily it didn't lead to an accident and injuries both to me and other drivers.

Why have i not been contacted...this is ridiculous..10 recalls on this vehicle and none of them have been fixed...this was a dangerous vehicle that never shod have been on the road..total loses of vehicle..where is the warranty?.. This vehicle was sold less than a month after my accident and i was told therefore the vehicle could not be located for investigation.. I want something done about this..!
Transmission is shifting very hard into second gear, particularly when the car is warm and has been running about 20 minutes.the shop reported pressure readings inside of transmission are high and recommended a full replacement.
When i was driving my toyota corolla 2010 on 12/29/2011 at around 10.30 pm, suddenly i felt that the steering was so rigid to turn and noticed in the car dashboard warning indicator lights for abs, engine malfunction/check engine indicator, brake, vsc off, were illuminating. And the vehicle was totally stopped in the middle of the road. I was totally shocked!!!!!!!!!!! i tried again to start the vehicle but it failed.i towed the car to toyota dealer and they ran vehicle testand told me that throttle body assembly has to be replaced. When this incident happened the mileage of the vehicle was approximately 9020. I called and wrote to toyota usa regarding this issue but didn't get any reply even after 6 days!!!!!!!!!
2010 toyota corolla the transmission will surge when trying to pass on the highway. When driving and trying to pass another vehicle there is a minor delay when the transmission shifts causing a jolt and fast acceleration. Also at low speeds coming up to a light and then it turns green but not fully stopped maybe 15 miles an hour the transmission will also surge.this seems like an ongoing problem and toyota wants to do nothing about it this is ridiculous a car with 62,000 miles has this problem this needs to be recalled asap.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. Every time the contact removed her foot from the brake pedal, the vehicle accelerated independently. When the vehicle was parked, it accelerated and made an abnormal noise. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where the failure was undetermined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 54,900.
1. Weather stripping will not stay on driver door2. Cd player of radio system was throwing out the 6 cd's as driving- replaced stereo.3. Under 70,000 miles- cv joint went out - replaced.prior to replacement loud clunking sounds and steering difficult- other owners same issues i am reading.needs recalled4. Appx 77.000 miles no warning alternator went out and was extremely hot and smelly-replaced.5. Appx 78,000 miles between 25-35 mph transmission keeps slipping. I was driving down a street and once on interstate it hit the other gear hard/clunked- toyota dealer called toyota and they said replace transmission.currently in the shop.called toyota and filed a case- they respectively understand my concern, however, they did not seem concerned of the safety hazard of this issue and probability of this issue causing a death. I have friend same issue and i have read about this same issue on the internet.there needs to be a recall. Luckily it did not go out on me driving on the interstate going 70mpg.scared of the vehicle and distrust competency of toyota.are they unwilling to admit the transmission problem is a safety issue?needs recalled or investigated please help the consumer.i am worried about others safety.
Driving 2010 toyota corolla manual trans on interstate on 8/2/10 at 2:30 p.m. Had cruise control on going 70 mph. Engaged clutch, shifted to neutral and braked in preparation to stop for traffic jam ahead.brake did not engage and vehicle continued at 70 mph without touching accelerator. Continued attempts to brake, downshift, turn off cruise control with no decrease in speed. Initially unable to downshift but then did get into lower gear but with no resulting decrease in speed, nor did the engine make any noise indicating that i had downshifted. I was able to get onto shoulder where i continued to go 70 mph.i then got off at an exit that had an incline.part way up the hill felt something disengage and the car slowed- not just due to the incline i think.i was then able to put on emergency brake and the car stopped.after several minutes i tried the brakes again and they worked.i did not reengage the cruise control after this. Please note that this occurred after i had taken the car in for both toyota recommended recalls regarding the floor mats and putting a modification in the gas pedal. When i went in for recalls i asked about placement of a computer brake override system and was first told that fix was not yet available, then told it was not relevant to my car, and, after the above event told again that toyota did not yet have the technology available to do this fix on corollas.the dealership have thus far been unpleasant and suggesting that i might not be telling the truth.
1. Gave my 2010 toyota corolla for recall fix - a0a safety call2. Drove the car home around 4:30 pm after the fix and parked in my home drive way3.

I took my 2010 toyota corolla s in for service on 9/26/14 at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 for a regular service. All service has been completed at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 since i purchase the brand new vehicle from them. The service representative informed me that my car had a timing cover leak that was to cost me approximately $1,300.00 to fix and that if i continued to drive it the leak would get worse. I am out of my two year warranty time period. The service representative told me that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the last two weeks with the same issue and one of them was even as low as $18,000 miles. He stated that at some point there would probably be a recall. I called toyota headquarters and opened case number [xxx] and wait to hear what their solution is. I advised that anything less than full repair by toyota at no charge to me would be unacceptable. Such an issue should not potentially happen in a vehicle until 100,000 to 110, 000 miles. The fact that the service rep said that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the lat two weeks is a serious red flag.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
After i turned around the corner of etna st /derby st. In berkeley, the steering suddenly malfunctioned andthe car veered to the roadside and hit a parked car. I tried to brake immediately. The impact was slight, but my car could not be moved any more. I called the police and the roadside assistance of my insurance company. The person from the roadside assistance told me that the steering mechanism broke and the front axle fell out. On the day following the incident, i reported it to toyota cooperation and am currently waiting for theirresponse.
Vehicle is impacted by takata pass bag faulty, no resolution informed by toyota advised toyota to refund money in regards to paying $21k, also vehicle has clatter under passenger side cv axle, have been in several times for solution or resolution to this issue more than 3 times to date there stating no problem is there, if car i jacked up i hear clear noise between cv axle and transmission, this was brought to toyotas attn. Once at toyota of irving twice at toyota of dallas and was shown to me at ntb tire to have axle or transmission irregular noise clatter when put in drive while on lift up 5 ft with one tech in car and another under vehicle with me pointing out clearly there is noise on passenger side. Yet toyota denies this or any noise to be a problem or hazard nor to acknowledge any noise exist, also brought car in for brake growl when i step on brakes, the rear brakes have not been changed by me and are not aftermarket brakes unless toyota installed them, the car was purchased from dealer, i took car back 4 times in regards to brake issues back to dealer no problem found.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)this is additional information . I filed a prior incident report and had another occurrence on feb 28 2010. Again my vehicle had a sudden acceleration and leaped forward. Again i was able to place it in neutral. This is a dangerous problem. I have taken it back to my local dealership only to be told, it was the floor mat. When it happened again (after i took out the mat i was told it may have been i hit the cruise control(even though i explained i hit the brake and the vehicle maintained its acceleration.) this dealership even has told other customers that have called inthey have not had one complaint about this problem( i was standing by the service desk when this took place).toyota will not admit there is a problemand in fact has spent more effort to make me feel its my fault or i am mistaken. What is the government going to do to address this problem ? it appears toyota is in denial because the fix will cost to much. How many more people will die or get injured? i am requesting and hope others are requesting that the highway safety administration take a stronger action . This has gone on to long without something being done. Please help. [xxx]
Car is sputtering and hesitates when driving at low speeds, it does it intermittently. This is a safety concern.i took it to toyota dealership and called headquarters and they have not been able to resolve this major problem. They are overlooking the problem. Apparently this is an ongoing problem with toyota cars and they haven't done anything about it.

Transmission exploded form inside out after 80k miles
I was driving my car down the highway going about 60mph and all of a sudden lost all engine power, with no warning, stutter, jolt or any sort of noise. I managed to coast to the shoulder but could not get my car to turn over and had to tow it away. Obd code reader would not connect with on board computer. When cranking the engine there was no spark to the coils.
I bought a new 2010 corolla and was told all recalls where fixed. My gas pedal stuck coming home from work i called the dealer ship they checked there records and found that my car did not get fixed.
Upon purchasing this car from carmax on 02/2012 there had been constant transmission issues that were not being resolved from the dealership. I had gone in and tried having my transmission looked at three times a the carmax dealership all of which told me that nothing was wrong with my car. On 07/26/2014 my 2010 toyota's transmission failed and now needs a new one. This out of pocket expense is ridiculous for a car that was built in 2010 and for myself owning it for two years. Both the toyota dealership and carmax dealership are not willing help assist the problem. I will never purchase a toyota car again. Updated 4/24/2015
As i was driving on hwy, i suddenly lost my power steering and i had power steering light, vsc and slippery car light cam on. From that point on i didn't have power steering, it was difficult to drive since it was hard to turn. Thank god that i didn't get involve in wreck. When i took it momentum toyota dealer in tulsa and explained what happened, service advisor said that since it has almost 45,000it is not covered under warranty. When i called to toyota customer service and express my safety concern, they said if it is concern thati need to get it fixed and pay out of pocket since it has about 45000 miles on it. I also informed them that it is well know issue on and there are alot of people having issue with power steering, he said i am sorry you vehicle is out side the warranty and we will not cover it.

The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 30,120.
When needing to accelerate the car takes off like a jet rocket when the pedal is pressed. The car seems to be out of control and shaking violently. This happens usually on highway when going above 50. Feels very unsafe. This is a used car i bought. This happens on a regular basis.

Check engine and vsc lights blinking. Hangs up in third gear. Had code pulled. Shift solenoid closed. This seems to be an ongoing problem with these cars. Dealerships just give you the runaround. Problem is caused by the failing ecu. This has been going on for years and no recall. This is not only a headache to drive but also unsafe.

2009 toyota corolla accelerates by itself.
For entire time owned - there is a gap of seconds between pressing gas pedal and actual acceleration. When i press gas pedal there is a hesitation leading me to press harder. Then of course the car has a sudden sprint in acceleration. This is not safe. I have had the car for 5.5 months so i am getting better at waiting instead of pressing harder. But i feel this is definitely a defect. I inquired over phone with service manager where i purchased - explanation: i am not use to a 4 cylinder, which i believed because i have never driven a 4 cylinder. But, i am beginning not to believe this excuse.*tw
My new 2010 toyota corolla, (less than 1000 miles) accelerated suddenly. I was driving in a parking lot and going about 15-20 mph. I applied the brakes after the first car was hit but was unable to avoid hitting the second car. My car and two other cars nearby were damaged, but no one was injured..

2010 toyota corolla. Consumer states several concerns regarding this vehicle *tgwthe consumer stated at times when applying the brake lightly, they grab abruptly.at times, when accelerating from a stop, he had no control over the amount acceleration delivered to the vehicle.the speed would increase more than desired.at speeds above 35 mph, when in overdrive, the engine speed would suddenly drop. The dealer confirmed the problem and toyota's response was the torque converter locked up and caused the engine speed to change and they recommended the consumer shift to third gear.
I bought a 2010 toyota corolla and had the pedal sticking twice in cold weather . When taken to the dealer ship i was advised that everything was fine and i ask if they had any problems . I was told no in fact they did not even bother taking down my complaint. I again returned to the toyota dealership after the story broke on the news. I am now being told that it only effects some camry and not the corolla. I feel that toyota has gone out of its way to hide this from the public. Further the last time the pedal stuck i was on the high way going 50 mph. And had to put it in neutral and pump the pedal until it returned to normal. Again please not that this information was given to them before it was made public in the news.after i became aware of the news . I took it back to them and this time they have no way to fix the problem. I hope that the nhtsalook into how many people brought this to toyota attention only to be told there was not a problem , how many people died or have been hurt because toyota tried to hide the problem. And what am i going to do or what they plan to do to make things right. I need to operate my vehicle , i hope i or any other person add to the accident count...
Car: toyota corolla base 5 speed manual transmission 2010i purchased the car new from a toyota dealership and it immediately had problems with shifting into reverse. From the 2nd day that i had the car, with 54 miles on the odometer, the whole car would shake and shudder as i put the gear into reverse. The gear would clunk into reverse, causing the transmission to shake and shudder and it is sometimes difficult to even get it to engage. The car was brought back to the dealership 3 times for the same reason with no improvement. A case was opened with a field branch and closed with the conclusion that the car was operating under normal conditions. The problem was reproducible by myself in front of the manager, the service writer and the technicians at the dealership all drove it and were able to reproduce the same issue. They say that all the corolla cars do that and that it is normal. The problem has progressed to the gear grinding when trying to engage now. The clutch is completely pressed down and the gear is moved into reverse and it grinds twice before finally engaging. No parts were replaced, no work was done to correct the problem. It is difficult to put the car into reverse which causes problems with everyday driving and makes it dangerous to not be able to reverse at a moment's notice if necessary.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that is part of the accelerator pedal reinforcement bar recall/installation. I have noticed another problem that appears to also involve the accelerator. This vehicle has a 5 speed manual transmission. The problem occurs in both 3rd and 4th gear. This problem is not consistent meaning it is not always noticed every time i drive, i would maintain that it occurs at least 50% of the time however. Problem: i attempt to maintain a constant speed for instance in 3rd gear at 30 mph, the vehicle feels as if it wants to speed up, i then remove some pressure from the accelerator, the vehicle then slow by jerking, i then attempt to accelerate and the vehicle jerks again,bottom line is i can not maintain a constant speed. The road conditions do not matter, flat, hill, bumpy, smooth, wet dry, 30 mph, 31 mph, 32, mph etc. I cannot maintain a constant speed in 3rd and 4th gear. I am not sure of an approximate date, it has happened numerous times since i purchased the vehicle in august of 2009. I will just enter a random date below.
I got in my car and buckled my seatbelt. I started driving away when i realized it wasn't staying buckled.i tried to re-buckle. A spring flew out of the buckle. I could not get the seatbelt to buckle after that.i had to go to work, so i buckled the seatbelt into the passenger coupling and was able to get to work. The car was entirely in motion during this sequence.
I got in the car to run an errand. The seatbelt wouldn't buckle to hold me in safely. I press it in and it just won't stay in place.

Stationary/parkeddriver's seat - an internal structure of the seat has broken, allowing a sharp, rigid steel piece to protrude from the back of the seat into the passenger area. This piece of steel has cut two of our children on the legs as they were exiting the vehicle. (one injury occurred in june 2016, toyota notified of problem in july 2016. Second injury occurred on 11/11/2016. Toyota again notified.)
On 11/23/2011, i bought a 2010 toyota corolla at sterling mccall toyota. Unfortunately, the vehicle was inadequate because of a hidden defect in the design and construction of the drivers front seat. I am disappointed and concerned because the way the seat was designed and/ or constructed places a metal bar to be compressed against the spinal column. The location of this metal bar lowers the protection of the occupants physical safety and places the driver at a higher risk for lumbar vertebrae injury.
Takata recallhello, my vehicle has been recalled for 9 months. That means nearly an entire year of not being able to safely transport passengers. I understand this is a mass scale issue that is challenging to solve, but it's also ridiculous for me to spend so much money on a car, only to lose basically 25% of the seat space i pay for. It's caused much difficulty transporting my family, because i'm definitely not allowing anyone to sit in a seat that might kill them. I expected a long wait for this to resolve, but taking nearly a year is bordering on unacceptable. When can i expect toyota to get on the ball? thanks

2010 toyota corolla, with defective seat and steering apparatus. I have expressed my concern with the manufacture and the dealership with no resolution.

I need help here.i am a safe driver, what about the other guy.i live in florida, and fit right into the recall notice, however toyota seems not to be able to anything about it.i am upset, i am paying on a car that i can only use a small portion of.and still not feel safe.i love my car, i want to keep it.but it seems like i bought a four bedroom house that maybe will only hold one.

When braking engine speeds up, having the impression of loss of control.the condition can be replicated if my foot is resting on the extreme right edge of the brake pad andthen applying the pressure to the brakes.when braking, my shoe comes in contact with the accelerator depressing it slightly, speedingup the engine. The driver's immediate reaction is to apply more pressure to the brakes, exacerbatingthe problem.the problem is easily solved by increasing the height difference between the brake pedal and the accelerator simply by changing the thickness of the brake pedal pad. I have tested my toyotaavalon 1998 for this condition and find that there is no similar problem with that vehicle.

At speeds over 50 mph the 2010 corolla s has steering wander - does not hold center very well - constantly have to correct direction to keep it straight - gets tiring after a while - just figured there was nothing i could do about it so i just lived with problem until reading an article about the nhtsa checking into problem so i told [xxx]in service dept.at dry ridge toyota in ky. About problem ( oct - 2013 ) and he saidhe would check into it and see if toyota would offer a fix - no response from toyota after over 6 months its now ( may - 2014 )i have checked back every month with [xxx] but he says still nothing from toyota - so im now filing this complaint with nhtsa.......... Also the speed control jerks car very hard as it reengages while going up a hill sometimes approx. 25 mph to 45 mph ......... Also the antilock brakes cause the front end of the car to jump up and down when trying to stop on slick rainy or snow roadsat slower speeds. Thank you.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

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.

Any time you go over any bump or hit any pothole, the brakes become very spongy feeling.when you push the breaks, they feel very bumpy (almost like there are rocks in between the drum and the pads and it makes a grinding noise.sometimes it even acts like it doesn't want to stop at all.as soon as you left off of them and reapply them, it is fine.it only happens if you go over something that is bumpy that causes any kind of jolt to the car.we took it to the dealer but they could not duplicate the problem.i am about to take it back again because it is still doing it.
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.
On monday july 29,2013 while i was set on 70 mph cruise control, my toyota corolla suddenly surged forward. I have no idea how fast it made the car go ,but i have never been in anything going that fast. I had to take the car into the grass median to avoid hitting another car when the brakes would not stop my car. We still flew down the grass median like a speed boat hitting waves, we were bouncing, the car was bouncing,i had severe cramps and stabbing across my lower kidney area when we finally came to a stop. I had to hold the brake pedal to the floor for what seemed like eternity. Before it finally stopped.i reported the incident in great detail to toyota corporate and my case was #1307291802.(this case # is no longer valid)i was told at that time if i felt safe, i could take it to my dealer in d.m.,iowa where i leased the car in 2010, or if i felt unsafe, i could take it to adams toyota in lee's summit, missouri. Then, my daughter-in-law called adams on my behalf and they gave her an entirely new case number because the first rep who took the report did not understand there was damage .my new case # is 1308011967.i felt i never want to be in that corolla again, so i did take it to adams and they provided me with a scion rental to get back to home and work in iowa.toyota has inspected the car and has up to 30 days to give me their report.i am to receive a copy of the data imaging extracted from the black box also.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving approximately 15 mph and depressing the brake pedal on a curve, the brakes failed to respond. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 60,000.
Vehicle is impacted by takata pass bag faulty, no resolution informed by toyota advised toyota to refund money in regards to paying $21k, also vehicle has clatter under passenger side cv axle, have been in several times for solution or resolution to this issue more than 3 times to date there stating no problem is there, if car i jacked up i hear clear noise between cv axle and transmission, this was brought to toyotas attn. Once at toyota of irving twice at toyota of dallas and was shown to me at ntb tire to have axle or transmission irregular noise clatter when put in drive while on lift up 5 ft with one tech in car and another under vehicle with me pointing out clearly there is noise on passenger side. Yet toyota denies this or any noise to be a problem or hazard nor to acknowledge any noise exist, also brought car in for brake growl when i step on brakes, the rear brakes have not been changed by me and are not aftermarket brakes unless toyota installed them, the car was purchased from dealer, i took car back 4 times in regards to brake issues back to dealer no problem found.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving approximately 25 mph, the brakes seized without warning. The vehicle stopped when the emergency brake was activated. After the vehicle stopped, a picture of a tire was displayed on the instrument panel. The dealer was unable to duplicate the failure; however, the brake drums were cleaned. The mechanic installed a cylinder slide and rubber grease. The caliper was serviced and the rear brakes were cleaned and adjusted. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 105,824.
I was driving and the person in front of me had hit their brakes due to the cars in front of them hitting the brakes due to a red light. I then hit my brakes as well and the car didn't stop, i pumped the brakes a few times and still had no brakes. My husband had panicked and pulled the emergency brake and the car still did not stop. My car then hit the vehicle in front of us which in turn cause a chain reaction for the other 3 vehicles involved. If my brakes would not have failed, i would have been able to stop in time before smashing into the back of the vehicle in front of me. My car is now a "total loss" and i am out of a vehicle. I am just glad that no one was seriously hurt.
Re: i haven't followed up on rcmn-10v017-5275 as i hadn't noticed a problemliving 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 thatmy 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.
The problem is with braking system or brake in my toyota corolla 2010. I step on the brake pedal when i was driving at 25mph speed at local street, but the brake pedal just got froze couldn't push further. Then i tried to pull up the brake handle but the handle was totally loose, all light on the board went on,then i have to turn off the key to force the engine stop before i almost hit the other car front of me.after 5 mins i restart my car, it turned out normal. It's very terrible experiences. I was lucky this time, it could cause to death accident. I send the car to toyota dealer where i bought the car originally. They checked the car and told me there is nothing wrong, also charged me to pay for the checking.this car is beyond the safe to drive, i don't know it will happened again.
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!
Brake application not engaged until we press the brake more than half way. This is increasing chances of accident that brake is not applied as driver wants it.
At approx 11:30 pm on july 15th 2016, my fianc, myself and 2 of our friends were heading home from downtown miami on i-95. 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
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.
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.
When using brakes i feel grinding or scrubbing sound,and car would vibrate and slow to stop, pulling car toward left when stopping. I took it to toyota dealer i bought it from, reported complaint asked them to check brakes,(this was with my routine service care). After they finished with call i had to ask about my brake complaint the man said nothing wrong,i told him that it didn't happen every time i used brakes but frequently.also i was not using car alot due to injury. I'm not sure about exact miles or time frame but i was still under my 2 year free service plan. Then a month after my service plan ended i had car serviced, i complained again about brakes, after they finished with my car, i had to ask again about my brakes the man said "oh,they need to be changed but it can wait to next service time and you will need tires then. I didn't wait to next service time, due to planned to have surgery. I got brakes changed at local brake shop, even after that, i still have times brakes grind etc...brakes changed a year ago and the grinding getting worse. I just drive to take son to and from school and ball, doctor appts.my older son went to get groceries for me yesterday he said my steering wheel shaking. I'm disappointed with the service department, i don't feel like they listened or even checked the brakes because i had to ask the findings, he would say what i stated above but he does not go back to garage area.

Brakes make a rapid thumping sound and are ineffective when applied at the time the car is driving over bumps, holes, or imperfections on the road surface. The road surface has to be completely smooth for the brakes to work properly. This is cause for a potential accident.
While driving on route 30 east in pa, i experienced a scenario where i was on cruise control and pressed the brake.the car continued to accelerate at it's speed and subsequent pressings of the brakes did not slow the car.i shifted the car into neutral and the brakes still were not slowing the car enough.i had to drive into the left shoulder and grass beyond that in order to slow the car down enough to let other cars pass so i could go into the right lane.the next business i took my car to the dealer and after driving 7 miles and looking for error codes, reported that they "could not reproduce the issue".my car already had all the fixes for the unintended acceleration issue that toyota had a number of recalls for done in december 2013.this issue needs to be further investigated by toyota because if the reported fixes do not work, then there could be a significant number of accidents/fatalities yet to come.i never had experienced this issue before.

I [xxx] the owner of toyota corolla 2010 (license plate: [xxx], licensed with the state of maryland vin no: [xxx]), residing at [xxx], while trying to park in my residential apartments at the above mentioned address (at a speed of 3-5 mph), applied the brakes and all of a sudden it caused an unintended acceleration and i hit the huge metallic trash bins in front of me at a very high speed on october 28th, 2013. The airbags did not deploy, but the front of my car got damaged heavily. It has been towed away by my insurance company geico to one of their body shops. My left ear and neck are in great pain since then and my wife [xxx] who was the passenger along with me suffered left knee sprain. We have been in a state of utter shock and dismay since this incident as this was completely unexpected. I have been a safe driver since the past 7 years and have never had any accidents, violations etc. Also i never mistook the gas pedal for the brake during my whole driving career and i use only one leg for this purpose. My vehicle when i purchased in 2010 was inspected 2-3 times for this and other issues by the dealer/toyota. The initial estimates as per my insurance agent are several grand (dollars) and the damage to the car is extensive. The insurance company's body shop is working on it. Please see the attachments that show the car was taken to the toyota dealer within a few months of purchasing it for acceleration problems and also the edr reports, service statement showing that this model is a part of a open recall service by toyota.i opened a case with toyota usa headquarters about the unintended acceleration that caused the accident yesterday.

I was on the highway going about 70mph. My exit was coming up on the right side so i put my foot on the brake to slow down. However the brake stuck and the vehicle wouldn't slow down, it kept going. I had the cruise control on, and usually if i brake without first turning it off it slows down, but that didn't happen. So i turned the cruise control off but nothing happened. My car kept going. I pushed down on the brake, but that made the car accelerate even more. I checked to make sure the pedal wasn't stuck, it wasn't, but i knew that wasn't the problem because my car was accelerating when i was hitting the brake. Luckily there was no one in front of me because i was going over 110mph. I sped at this speed for quite a ways maybe 3/4 of a mile. I thought i was going to die and had my phone in my had to call 911. I kept pushing on the brake since i didn't know what else to do (this of course made me go faster and faster). The brake wouldn't go down though. I didn't understand what was happening. It was like stuck? finally i heard my accelerate pop. And the car started to decelerate.

I have a brand new 2010 toyota corolla which has only 700+ miles on it.today, on my way to get lunch, my brakes slipped twice within 5 minutes of each other.the 2010 corolla definitely should be part of the brake problem recall.
As i applied the brakes on my 2010 toyota corolla, the vehicle seemed to momentarily surge before slowing down. This has happened on other occasions as well. The duration of the surging sensation is very brief.
I was driving at about 35 mph on a road that has a speed limit of 45 mph.i went to stop for a line of traffic when i pushed my brake pedal the brake went to the floor.it didn't even slow me down.i hit the suv in front of me then my car (with my foot still on the brake) accelerated forward and hit the suv again and again before coming to a complete stop.i have had my car into the dealership 3 prior occasions to get the same condition fixed.i bought my car from said dealership, brand new, a little over a year ago.
The problem is with braking system or brakes in toyota corolla 2010 le. I bought the car in december 2010.when the brake pedal is pushed, the vehicle does not slow down or stop. It requires pushing the brake pedal further down to slow down the car or bring it to complete stop. It happens at all speeds. Abs is available in the car and is engaged. It ran 1100 mile only. I got it checked with the dealer and they told that there is nothing wrong with the braking system and that is how the braking system was designed in new toyota cars ( requires pushing down the brake pedal further down and i can't believe this). I still feel that there is some issue with the braking system. I checked the recall list in http://www.toyota.com/recall/ and my vehicle vin is not listed. I searched on the internet and found similar problem with toyotacorolla 2010 model reported by many customers. The braking system is"power-assisted ventilated 10.7-inch front disc brakes; 9-inch rear drum brakes with anti-lock brake system (abs), electronic brake-force distribution (ebd) and brake assist (ba)" .i am scared to drive this car.
While driving a 2010 toyota corolla le the steering wheel unexpectedly jerked away from my control. In addition, the power steering and braking system is making strange sounds, such as hissing, pings and cracks. I took the car to toyota dealership and mechanic stated it is probably the electrical system. He also stated that toyota will probably recall car due to complaints with powersteering. Due to the above issues and recent recalls on my car, my wife and i don't feel safe and secure in car. We are scared of dying like other toyota owners have in the past. We would like a full refund of $17, 209.97 from toyota motor sales usa.
I have toyota corolla 2010, bought in august 2009. I had a brake problem with this car existed from the beginning. My problem with brake was first like a suspicious case and initially unbelievable for me.that's why i was doubt at first! i never believed 2010 corolla (i am owner) could have this problem. So i put off with that for a while. However, i realized the fact after traveling to california to visit my sister and i rented a car (volkswagen) over there. When i was driving the car, i found out how sharp the brake of the car was. At that time i felt the difference between sharp and properly-working brake and failed brake. Other unusual experience with this corolla is that when i was driving the car in uneven roads the brake was going down completely with generation of such odd sounds like cracking of two pieces together! therefore i realized something really wrong with the brake. The brake being weak and not working properly. I called toyota dealer and told them the problem. Also, in tri-monthly schedules for checking the car, i told them i do not like the brake, it is not good, not sharp, slow to action, but they told me we checked everything and all is fine! nothing done to fix the brake failure. Unfortunately there are no any records of these conversations to the best of my knowledge, just i have a receipt that shows i brought the car for checking and they checked it. After that, i continue to driving, but once again, i realized the problem still exists. My next appointment for bringing the car for checking was february 7th on sunday. I was going to tell them i can not stand with this problem and i am concern about this, but unfortunately i got an accident on feb 2th. I was in slow line, my speed was slow (not more than 25m/h), however, when the car ahead of me stopped, i could not stopped correspondingly due to pre-existing brake failure. I hit the rear of the car. Fortunately the police officers mentioned the issue of "brake failure" in their report.
Since i bought it in october my 2010 toyota corolla base model has been extremely difficult to keep on the road i go over fifty and it feels like a big wind in constantly trying to push me off the road, i pay alot of money for this car and i don't trust it at all, when i stop or attempt to it makes a loud almost abs type sound very often and the brakes are extremely touchy and i feel this car is just a unsafe device what's next these cars are junk and poorly made.
Failure of brakes when going over bumps in the road. This is an ongoing problem that has happened quite frequently. I live on a dirt road which is wash-board bumpy. I also experience the same problem pulling into my parking spot at work which is bumpy. The brakes fail and the car makes a noise when going over the bumps. After the bumps, it corrects itself. No cars i have driven over the same conditions has exhibited this problem. I heard about the prius problem and that was the exact problem i had experienced. I am not sure how long it has happened, or how many miles i had on the car when i noticed it the first time. All i know is that it is still happening.
Brakes unresponsive, requires depression of pedal to the floorboard before brakes begin engaging.occurs at all speeds.safety concerns regarding the safety and effectiveness of the brake system.
Toyota corolla s 2010 [xxx]with extra stabilizer bar kit, purchased 11-30-09 with delivery in 12/09.1) approximately 1 month after purchase ,the car starting to veer sharply right then left when driving on the highway, it was/is difficult to control requiring a tight grip on the wheel.it feels like strong winds are moving the car but winds are absent and road conditions are normal. This event comes and goes unexpectedly, generally lasts the duration of my commute once started, sometimes occurs with the tire pressure gauge but not always, sometimes occursafter rapid braking.it does not feel like an alignment or balance problem, the car darts from one end of the lane, to the median of the lane on its own. On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.
1) events leading up to failure:i purchased a new 2010 toyota corolla on jan 1st 2010. I drove the car for 1 approximately 1 month before experiencing problems with the brake/acceleration. On jan 30, 2010 i noticed that the car would sometimes accelerate initially before braking when i hit the brake. On feb 2, 2010 i was involved in a collision on interstate 5 just after the la jolla village dr entrance. Traffic was heavy, moving at an average speed of 20mph. When the car in front of me stopped, i hit the brake and my car accelerated into the back of the car in front of me. The car is currently undrivable and in the repair shop.
When i was driving over a pothole or uneven ground less than 2 weeks after buying a new 2010 toyota corolla the brakes would grind and stopping would not be immediate. I took it back to the dealer who could not find anything wrong. I was told that new brakes often make noises. I explained that this was far from a normal noise. Still, they assured me the car was safe, which i do not believe. I have had the car for a little less than 5 months and the brakes continue to grind over uneven ground. It will continue to grind until i release my foot from the brake, even if i am no longer on uneven ground. The car will slow over the uneven ground, but will not stop as expected, especially given that this is a new vehicle. Also, yesterday morning i started hearing a "tick" sound coming from the brake pedal. It happens mostly in stop-and-go traffic.
At low speeds, especially on uneven or slick payment, the brakes and/or anti-lock brakes fail and the car will not stop. This usually lasts only a second or two. I purchased the car this october and noticed the issue soon after.it will happen a few times a week.i have returned it to the dealer twice for inspection, and they insist that there is no issue.i have had the accelerator pedal fixed for the recent recall.tonight, the brakes failed again for several seconds this time and i came very close to crashing into the vehicle in front of me.i was going 25-30 mph on wet pavement and was unable to stop the car when i applied the brake.
Our japanese built 2010 corolla has a dead spot at the top of the brake pedal travel.at all speeds, when first depressing the pedal, very little if any braking action occurs with the vehicle.only after significant pressure has been applied to the pedal will the vehicle slow.this is actually more dangerous during low speed driving.the car has been to the dealer 3 times for this.there have been several adjustments made, and the brake system has been flushed with new fluid.it is still an issue.they have acknowledged that this is a characteristic of the japanese built cars.i have test driven 2 canadian built 2010 corollas, and the braking function is much better.the braking components are not transferable between the 2 cars.i maintain that this is a design flaw of the japanese built corollas.
I have a 2010 corolla it constantly sways while driving at freeway speeds. Sometimes i need to hold onto the steering wheel with both hands to keep it from going into another lane. I switched from driving a small vw beetle and was familiar with strong winds causing these problems but when i looked out the window there was no wind all the trees were still and no flags were waving. There has been a couple of times when i really felt the car was going to swerve out of control if i didn't immediately slow down. I also feel a metal grinding sensation with my brakes when i slow down over uneven pavement or go over a speed bump. This doesn't happen every time but in the past 2 months that i've had the car it occurred 6 times. I told the toyota dealership about these problems and they said it couldn't be duplicated and that there was nothing wrong with the car. Which is completely ridiculous there hasn't been a time that i've driven on the freeway and not felt this swaying. They didn't even try to find a problem. They didn't do a thing to help me. Than i heard of other corolla owners having the same problems. So i know it's not just me, there is a problem with my car and they need to recognize they made another mistake.
Anti-lock brakes go into a chatter, when wet, at low speeds, and do not stop the car very well. This has happened on more than one occasion.
Toyota 2010 corolla brake system failed. The emergency brake went on , while i was driving without me doing anything. The odometer stopped working, brake, check-engine, panic mode and airbag system lights went on. The failure has occurred twice already, first starting as a brake failure, then almost leading to the accident when everything failed at once. Almost got into an accident and i couldn't accelerate in the car. I took the car to the dealership and they gave me run around, they still don't know how to fix it or what's wrong with it. This car is beyond unsafe to drive, luckily it didn't lead to an accident and injuries both to me and other drivers.
I was going to work when my brakes stopped working, steering wheel locked, and car accelerated straight into a fence. Both my mother and i were injured. I got a toyota specialist to look at the car, it took them three and a half weeks after the accident to send that specialist to look at the car. He then said the car was safe to drive. After i got my car back from the body shop i took the car to the toyota dealership where i got it to get the brakes fixed and the accelerator pedal fixed. I have gone twice already and my brakes still aint fixed and giving me problem.
While my husband was driving my 2010 toyota corolla (purchased on 9/10/09) on miramar, pkwy in miramar, florida, at 45 miles per hour a truck cut him off. When he hit the brakes to stop, the abs locking system skipped and never fully stopped? had the truck not sped up to help him avoid hitting him, he could have been seriously hurt or even killed.i have taken the car to the dealership for a scratching sound (abs) since 2 weeks of purchase (500 miles).on the first trip back to the dealership on 9/25/09, after 5 days and an hour and 1/2 driving with one of the mechanics, i was told that there was nothing they could do about the anti locking system, that is just the way they are.it has since been at the dealership 5 different times since date of purchase for a total of 15 days that i have counted for the same scratching noise and multiple other things, such as the steering, the tires rattling and balancing issues. When i called the dealership today (3/11/10) i was told by the service manager that my husband should bring in the car to try and duplicate the abs braking system not working.does he have to duplicate almost getting into a fatal accident in order for toyota to fix the braking problem?i think not.i was then told that they can give me a prius as a loaner.wow!!!!i traded in a 2002 bmw x5 for the reliable safe corolla.what a huge mistake.
2010 toyota corolla le has brake problem on bumpy roads.the brake seems to have hit something when the car bumps due to road conditions, and affects the effectiveness of braking.a friend who has the exact model also has the same problem.have complained to toyota dealership and was looked at, but saying everything was normal; however, the problem exists.
Purchased a new 2010 corolla 4-door sedan s;immediately a problem with the brakes and steering was noticed upon first long drive.when depressed the brakes would go all the way to the floor.steering the car in a straight line down the freeway was almost impossible without constant corrections, i call it nervous steering, which after more than 50 miles because very stressful and tiring. Purchase date 8-22-09. The vehicle was returned to the nearest toyota dealership located in victorville, california early sept 09.the brakes were examined and after certain corrections the brake pedal is better but not perfect.as for the steering..the technician says it's within normal parameters...what every that means.there is definitely a defect with the steering system;after reviewing the vehicle brochure regarding the steering system it reads "electric power steering (eps) helps gives corolla steering response that's effortlessly accurate" however nothing could more from the truth.it's been my experience after 7000 miles on the odometer...that when steering the car down the highway...the car will literally leave the lane your driving in which requires steering correction to keep it in the driving lane you're traveling. The brochure further reads that "eps also eliminates hydraulic-assist components that can reduce fuel economy" however i would say at what cost...if this new system renders the steering process a very nervous and tiring experience for the driver.a fatigued driver is an unsafe driver...i credit the fault with this new system "eps" as a potential disaster waiting to happen. It's my assessment after owning this vehicle now 6 months...that toyota needs to revisit this "eps" system and consider returning to the former hydraulic-assist components...it may more costly for them to build...but at least it worked.i bought this car because it had a reputation for safety and reliability however it's been the absolute worst purchase ever imagined.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. Whenever the contact applied the brakes, she noticed that the brake pedal had to be pushed to the floor in order to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealership where the contact was informed that the vehicle was working properly. The current and failure mileages were 2500.
Approximately one week ago, my 2010 corolla surged forward approximately 6-8 feet after i placed in park in my work parking lot. The tachometer went to above 2000 rpms, and the cars speed wentover 20 mph before i was able to jam on the emergency brake. My foot was not on the brake or the gas pedal. I almost hit a tree. My head was thrust backwards. Three hours later the paramedics had to come to my office and rush me to the hospital as i had a tia as a result. This is the third acceleration incident with my vehicle since february 12th.the dealership has even had a specialist look at my car, and they said nothing is wrong with it. I brought the car back to the dealership today because of the above incident. The general service manager said to me quote unquote "we can find nothing wrong with your vehicle, and can not verify your complaint. You have brought the car to us four times for this same acceleration problem and there is nothing wrong with your car. We have not charged you any of these times.if you bring it to us again for the same problem, we are going to have to bill you for our time. They also charged me for the rental car today. He also stated that the media is blowing this way out of proportion, and that there is nothing wrong with any of the toyota vehicles. He said the problem is one of two things. I asked him what those two things were. He stated that they are the drivers are bad drivers and the other is it is fraud. So i said are you implying i am a lier or a bad driver and he refused to answer. I then said i am neither of the two and that i resented the implication to both. I told him my car is a death mobile and unsafe to drive, and also that i had been hurt 3 or 4 times already.
Since purchasing this car, the brakes have "locked up" occasionally. We took the car to toyota to have this checked last week; they performed two recalls and stated that the car was driving properly. Since then, the brakes have locked up twice. I liken it to how your car feels when there is low traction - but the low traction light does not come on and i am not driving on ice, gravel, etc. I am always on clear asphalt. The car makes a "metallic humming" sound and the brakes lock up for approximately 4-5 seconds, during which time i cannot stop. Luckily, 90% of the time when this happens, there is no one in front of me; however, last week i was driving in downtown pittsburgh and i slid into the intersection.
I have made complaints do the dealership during multiple 5000 mile check ups on my brake grinding. When stopping on uneven surfaces or wet surface my brakes will periodically make a grinding noise which i can feel a vibration up through the pedal that shakes my leg. Passengers can feel and hear these incidence as well. However, the dealership cannot duplicate this problem when the vehicle is being serviced and therefore they see no problem. On today's visit i have requested a brake system check which i was informed that the only thing they could find was the abs when pressing brakes hard. However this incident happens to me when i am coming to a slow stop not when drastically pressing the brakes. I was not satisfied with this and there was nothing more they could say but this is what it is and there's nothing they do about it.
I own a 2009 toyota corolla with 19,000 miles. I am the original owner. I have taken the car in twice for a problem with the brakes. I have owned many cars but none have ever felt so unresponsive when you hit the brakes, especially in the event of a fast stop. The dealers tell me this is normal for vacuum assisted brakes. A brake pedal that goes almost to the floor when stopping and requires dangerous distances to fully stop is not normal, and if toyota has designed the system to function like this they have a bad design for a major vehicle safety function. The braking system in the 2009 toyota corolla may be a dangerous design flaw. You may need to evaluate this function of the toyota.
Multiple incidents... The three most recent occurred on 2/8, 2/10, and 2/15 of 2010.this problem has been happening since we purchased the car, i figured it was just because it was a new vehicle and needed driven (broken in) so the brakes would find their best working levels.the problem occurs when driving, at any speed, and in all road conditions.the incident on 2/8 my wife was driving and only going about 5-8 mph.as she made a turn the car proceeded to shutter and the low traction light again came on, no braking was available during this incident, but luckily she was able to come to a stop before hitting another vehicle.on 2/10 i was going to take this car to finally have them fix the problem and in (very safe) good driving conditions i experienced what my wife had explained that the car has been doing for the better of 6 months.as you proceed to come to a stop the car accelerates upon depressing the brake pedal.when this happens (i have tested this) if you keep the pedal at the same point the car will continue to speed up slowly, but if you take your foot off the brake the car seems to maintain the speed.now this is where my wife will not drive the car any longer, when you press the brake further down to stop it locks the tires for about a second before the abs even kicks in.being that this is a cold area and we likely have snow during the winter months i am amazed that if any other corolla are having this problem they all have not slid off the road.when i experienced this problem on 2/10 i was going to take it to toyota for service. Never made it, did not trust the vehicle to safely get me to my destination without injury to myself, others, or property. The last incident on 2/15 was the same problem, and at this point my wife will no longer drive the car.this is the vehicle we purchased to keep our newborn safe... Looks to have been a poor choice.i finally risked my life and took it to toyota tonight, we will see what comes of this. Thanks
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that when driving in traffic, she moved forward and tried to depress the brake pedal. The brakes failed and she hit the rear of another vehicle. Before the failure she heard a slight noise a few times when applying the brake pedal. The contact sustained a minor injury. She did not speak with the dealer or the manufacturer at the time of the complaint. The vehicle had not been repaired to-date for the brake failure. .the current mileage was approximately 2,400. The failure mileage was 1,239.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact was driving approximately 35 mph attempting to stop. While the brake pedal was depressed the vehicle began to vibrate and pulsate causing a decrease in the stopping distance. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer. The technician stated the failure was a normal occurrence due to the antilock brake system sensitivity when depressed and was unable to duplicate the failure. The manufacturer was notified and informed that there would be a response within a two day period. The failure mileage was 3,000. Updated 05/18/10. *lj
I bought a 2010 toyota corolla s in june of 2009.whenever i would be driving on rough and uneven roads and had to use my brakes they would not work.the car would keep moving forward without slowing down when i would apply my brakes.this happened all of the time even after i took my car to the toyota dealership for them to inspect and fix the problem.i told them about this when i would take my car in for an oil change and routine maintenance and the mechanic assured me that if there were anything wrong with my brakes that they would find it and fix it because they do a complete check of my car and it functions when the do the routine maintenance and car diagnostic.however, the problem still continued and i had routine maintenance on my car 3 different times. My car was also taken to the same toyota dealership for the same problem during times it did not need maintenance and after taking my entire break system apart and still not finding anything, they told me that everything looked fine.however, this was not the case because the first uneven road i drove on my breaks did not work properly and the vsc symbol immediately came on and my car started making this constant annoying beeping sound that wouldn't go away.therefore i called toyota telling them about it and they said to bring the car back, so i did.they said they found a leak in one of my hoses.something that their car diagnostic computer never caught when i initially complained to toyota about this problem which existed since i bought the car.after getting the car back this time the problem seemed to improve a little but was still moving forward when i would break on uneven and rough roads.....i also told the toyota people that the break problem the prius was having seemed to be the same brake problem my corolla was having.although i am aware that the brake system in the prius is probably different from that of my corolla, because the prius is a hybrid.perhaps there is a connection.
I bought my toyota corolla s on december 30, 2009. Within a week of purchasing the car, i noticed that the brake pedal began to feel spongy and non-responsive. I contacted the dealer and was initially told that this model had a longer brake travel than previous model years. I persisted in getting the dealer to adjust the rear linings and bleed the brakes and this seemed to help somewhat. But as the brakes wear, i can feel the problem occurring again. The brake pedal is difficult to modulate, has a spongy, non-linear feel that increases braking distances and makes the car more difficult to drive. I feel that there is a design flaw in these cars that should be rectified immediately by toyota.
Tengo un corolla y tngo problemas con la dieccion de mi auto una ves estaba en el freeway como a 60 millas y trate de frenar porq otro auto se me atraveso sin poner su direccional y a alta velocidad y no lo podia controlar el bolante se hacia de un lado a otro eto me preocupa y e llamado a mi vendedor para consular y no me contestan nunca cualquier pregunta llamarme.
I leased a 2010 corolla in dec,2010. When you apply the brakes the pedal goes all the way to the floor. Took back to dealer and he said he drove another corolla and the brake operated the same way, he said nothing was wrong since the vehicle stopped o.k. If you pump the pedal once the brakes engage the way they should...i thing there is a problem with this vehicle.

An unintended acceleration occurred. The dealer was notified and stated that the failure was contributed to the weather and road conditions. The contact experienced the failures previously and was advised by the dealer that there was not a problem. An appointment was scheduled with the dealer for service repair. The failure mileage was 1,000.updated 06/02/10. *ljupdated 07/13/10
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving at low speeds and applying the brakes, she heard a loud noise. The failure became progressively worse over time. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who stated that the problem could lie in the computer; however, they could not duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The current mileage was approximately 11,300. The failure mileage was approximately 5,000.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact statedwhen driving at approximately 55 mph, the steering wheel would notstay balanced in a straight line. The vehicle would veer in either direction. The contact stated the failure was worse when driving in snow or windy weather conditions. The dealer advised the vehicle was operating as designed. The failure persisted. The dealer test drove and was able to duplicate the failure. An investigator was sent on behalf of the manufacturer to further inspect the failure. The investigator performed a visual inspection and advised there were no failures. In addition, the contact stated the brakes would feel spongy and would often fall farther into the floorboard than normal. The contact would have to apply steady, repeated pressure in order for them to work properly. The dealer advised there were no failures within the brake system. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 500 and the current mileage was approximately 2,100.
I am having a major problem with my brakes in my toyota corolla 2010 vehicle it has less then 5,000 miles and yet the brakes have to be practically pushed to the floor to work,they seem to be not working properly , especially on ice cold days.i almost had an accident and let me tell you i am a very cautious driver and am scared that eventually my brakes will not stop and i will be killed or worse yet kill another person by hitting them with my car.i noticed a recall back in august about the same issue but not for cars sold in pa.it gets very cold here too.they should have recalled all of these vehicles before their are lots of deaths.
Since about a month after purchasing my 2010 toyota corolla in april of 2010 i have had several experiences with the brakes when stopping on multiple surface types, including wet road, uneven surface and under normal conditions. The brakes make a grinding sound and seem to skip as i push down, slowing my braking time and making me feel like i'm going to not be able to stop. The grinding was so severe that it vibrated though my leg. My vehicle is no longer under warranty however i did take it into the dealership while it was covered and they informed me that in order to repair it they would need to duplicate the problem while driving the vehicle. Of course they weren't able to make it happen, did a brake inspection and said it was all just fine. Shortly after this visit, the brakes did the same grinding when stopping as had happened before. I am a conscientious driver and treat my vehicle gently and there is no reason this should be happening to a brand new car. We need more attention placed on this problem and a recall must be issued before there are multiple casualties. Also what i don't understand is how there was a recall for the 2010 corolla for a similar issue with the brakes but they excluded certain states that are in proximity to states where vehicles were recalled. How can they be sure other vehicles weren't affected?
When i took my vehicle to the dealer for it's 3 month checkup, i informed them that i was having issues with the brakes and the steering.i told them that the car feels like it is out of alignment because when driving over 45mph the car pulls to one side and it is difficult to keep in a single lane on the highway.when i described the braking issues with the car, they told me that "the brakes are different than what i have been used to with other vehicles.the brakes don't seem to engage until the pedal is at the floor board.when they were ready to turn the car back over to me they told me that they did an alignment on the car and that they adjusted the rear brakes and bled the lines.i noticed that when they "test drove" the car they only went 3 miles.that distance, in the part of town where the dealer is located doesn't even get the car up to 40 mph.the original complaint of the car drifting is still there.now the brakes hop and chatter when you press on the brake pedal at speeds of appx 45 mph, and when at a complete stop the car tends to creep forward even though the brakes are fully engaged.i bought this vehicle solely on the toyota reputation, and now i am sorry that i did.i bought this vehicle on november 2,2009 and am still waiting to hear anything from toyota regarding the accelerator pedal recall/repair.i should have gone with my first instinct and bought the dodge instead of the toyota.

I bought my 2010 toyota corolla couple months ago and ever since it's been having brake problems. Quite often, the vehicle fails to stop when i apply the brakes which makes me brake harder or down shift to slow down in time.i took it to the dealership to get it fixed and they informed me that there is nothing they can do to fix the problem. This problem happens at least once a day and because of this problem, i have encountered many times where i almost got in accidents.*tw

The contact stated he took the vehicle to the dealer and they told him it was something with his steering. They adjusted his tire pressure and told him it should have been fine. The contact stated he is still having this issue.he also had a problem with the brakes, the contact stated that the vehicle is hard to stop at times. He is unsure if this is an acceleration problem, he feels as if it is his brakes. The failure mileage was 4,000 and the current mileage was 6,000.
When coming to a stop at a stop sign, if the pavement is bumpy, the anti-lock braking on my 2010 toyota corolla engages, hindering the slowing of my vehicle.the loss of braking is scary.this was not a one-time event, it happens whenever applying braking while on a bumpy section of road.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving at speeds of 35 mph, the contact abruptly depressed the brakes but the vehicle would not respond.

I drive toyota corolla ls 2010. I was driving to work today approximately with 45m/h. I was getting ready to take an exit from the highway, i saw couple cars were stopped in the middle of the exit approximately meter away from me. I decided to reduce the speed and getback to the highway(to get around them so i can take my exit. I hit my brake slightly to slow down my car did not even change speed, i tried couple times nothing happened. Then i decided to step on the brake all the way my car did not change the speed at all it was going at the same speed. My car was traveling straight road for 7-8 seconds, then i had to make a quick decision so i will not hit the cars that was onfront of me(they were stopped in the middle of the road for some reason) because i was getting too close. I decided to get back to highway so i willnot hit anyone. But after i tried to get back to thehighwayi totally lost my control of the car. The car moved with no control for several seconds then i and up in the middle of the highway. I was lucky everyone was behind me and they stayed away from my car. I just took my car to be fixed from the sticking acceleration problem. I believe my breaks did not worked at that point and my car was moving with the same speed . Afterward i was able to move my car and my brakes were working. I am worried to drive that car. I do not feel safe. I could of hurt the lady and her kids that were behind me.
2010 toyota corolla brake failure which was reported to dealership caused an accident with my parents. Dealership claimed the reviewed brakes and there was no issue. My father reported to officer that brakes did not work.
Problems with our toyota corollasteering does not feel rightbrakes are not rightaccerator pedal recalli have calledtoyota and i get no reseults from my problems. My wife does'nt feel safe driving this car. I want toyota to take this car back.they have told us no way.car has only 6,000miles on it.
Purchased a 2010 toyota corolla used from a toyota dealer with under 5000 miles on the car.the third day i owned it the brakes began to make excessive noise.the car has been taken to three separate dealers all who fail to recognize or fix the problemthe brakes sometimes shudder on uneven pavement or if braking on a slight curve.an official complaint has been made to toyota.the noise is excessive and loud and type of noise you would hear after 30,000 miles when in need of brake replacement.on the third visit to a dealer, a technician rode in the car and positively identified the noise.they then claimed to have taken apart the wheels/brakes only to claim there is nothing wrong with them and refused to replace the brakes under the existing warranty even though the problem has been reported since the vehicle was purchased. Because the brakes make such a loud noise so frequently, it would seem the car may be unsafe to drive.also, although the car was purchased through the toyota dealer and as an owner i was registered with their online owner site, i was never informed of the latest safety recall, and didn't find out until the car was taken in a third time for the brake issue.the problem remains ongoing.
2010 toyota corolla, experience loud noises when braking while going over rough road, speed bumps or grates in the road at low speeds.
In trying to stop a 2010 toyota (with a manual transmission) the brakes had a metallic rattle as they engaged, then almostimmediately theybecame dis-engaged causing the car to move forward about five feet before re-engaging and stopping thecar. During this event the brakes had been applied at all times and the clutch depressed.
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla toward the end of 2009.i will advise that something is not right with the braking system.the brake pedal is "soft", and at times when pressed and the car comes to a full stop, it feels like the pedal keeps sinking.the brake pedal response does not feel consistent, and occasionally i "pump" it in order to get a more firm feedback (the pedal seems to firm up at second press ).luckily no accidents to report, the car keeps stopping, and a " no problem" message received from the dealer when i took the car in for a check soon after purchase.i thought it was just me, but now i have to wonder!
Brakes unresponsive, requires depression of pedal to the floorboard before brakes begin engaging. Occurs at all speeds. Dealer adjusted brakes and bled lines and this issue continues.i was told that the braking system is different than what i am used to and i have to get used to it.
When i purchased this vehicle, i immediately felt an awkwardness with the brakes. Anytime i began to stop & the road was less than perfect, the brakes locked up & i seemed to slide to a stop. The feeling was almost like stopping on gravel or hydroplaning, just no control felt. When i complained about this, i was told that's how the new brakes are (i had previously owned an older vehicle) & the brake inspection found nothing. I have been in two mvas prior, once i was rear ended & the other time someone ran a stop sign & hit me. 10/12/11 i rear ended another vehicle & was also rear ended in the proocess. When i went to brake suddenly that day, the car slid into the vehicle in front of me. I am a very conscientious driver. I have always been told that when someone rear ends another vehicle, it is automatically their fault. I have since purchased another new vehicle, different manufacturer, and being told the toyota brakes were right, couldn't be further from the truth. 10/10/11 i had lab work performed & was diagnosed as being pregnant. This accident two days later, the airbags didn't deploy, either. The hood of the car came in through the windshield on me, the car has been deemed a total loss. There were two faulty toyota parts that failed me and my unborm child that day-the brakes and the airbags. I get to have surgery 10/28/11 to remove the now nonviable child from my womb. I equate this loss to the failures on toyota's part.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. He stated that when driving 25 mph and making a turn the steering wheel stayed in that same position and never returned to the straight position. He also stated that when driving and trying to engage the brake pedal he had to apply a lot pressure on the pedal so that it could decrease the speed. The failure was duplicated and the contact advised that the vehicle was functioning normally. No repairs were made to the vehicle. The failure mileage was 300 and the current mileage was 888.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla s. Ocassionally when i'm braking, my car doesn't want to brake. It makes a grinding feeling under my foot. Then i have to quickly apply the brake again to get the car to stop. I thought it was just a fluke at first or due to the road being wet, but it happened again today, and the pavement was dry. Luckily i don't wait until the last second to brake, and i don't tailgate.
The contact owns a 2010 corolla. The contact stated that there was a delay when the brake pedal was engaged. The failure has occurred in fair weather conditions and on uneven pavement. Thefailure mileage was 4000. The current mileage was 5000.
The brake of toyota corolla 2010 does not respond effectively. It is hard to make a complete stop even it is completely pressed down to the floor, which is really scary. I am in el paso, and it is a hot area. So the brake recall on some of the cold states does not make sense. It should recall all of the corolla 2010 for brake fix.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While the contact was driving 60 mph using the cruise control the vehicle suddenly accelerated from 60 mph to 70 mph without warning, in order to stop the acceleration the contact had to deactivate the cruise control. The contact also noticed that whenever she applied the brakes they hesitate to engage increasing the stopping distance. The vehicle has not been diagnosed by the dealership and there were no prior warnings, the current and failure mileages were 2000.updated 4/5/10
I have felt that there is a problem with the brakes of my 2010 toyota corolla since shortly after i bought it.the brakes vibrate or pulsate without warning.it seems that the abs is activated for no reason.i am not stopping short and the road has not been slippery .i brought the car to the dealer and they claimed that there is nothing wrong with the brakes.another problem i have noticed with the brakes is that they seem to grind when i am braking over bumpy surfaces.it happens with out warning, i never know when it will occur.i called the dealer and the mechanic said it is just the abs, nothing to worry about.the problem seem similar to the prius brake complaints.finally, i noticethat sometimes as i am stopping that the brakesseem to slip a little but then take hold.
I was sitting at a stoplight with my foot on the brake waiting for the light to change to green when suddenly the vehicle surged forward into the back end of vehicle in front of me resulting in damage to my front end and very minor damage to other vehicle.no one was injured.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla, but because i live in texas, i am not part of the recall to have a newly designed intake air connector to relocate the brake system vacuum port. I am afraid that if i go to colorado this winter as planned, i will have brake failure. Why does the recall not extend to all 2010 toyota corollas???
Toyota corolla brakes needs to pressed forcefully to stop the car abruptly. Also when i slightly put the foot on the brake the car surges for about 1 second. This has occurred to me everytime i drive so that i have to press the brakes hard when i need to come to a stop.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla with 10,000 miles on it. I bought the car new from a toyota dealership in october 2009. Immediately after buying the car, i started noticing an abnormal tingling when hitting the brake pedal coupled with a loud grinding sound coming from the brakes immediately after i hit a little pothole at my condo. It feels and sounds as if i were doing something wrong by pressing the brake pedal. I took the car to the toyota dealership and they told me that was the abs being activated and that it happens when i brake after hitting a pothole or a bump or on a rough terrain, and that the grinding sound and tingling brake pedal are normal. It does not feel or sound normal at all and the tingling pedal can make a driver avoid hitting the brake pedal because it feels and sounds like doing something wrong, which may lead to a crash.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated when attempting to brake on a bumpy or uneven road surface, the brakes would grind excessively and would not stop the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while the vehicle was in a stopped position, the brake pedal extended to the floorboard. On two occasions, the vehicle moved forward when the brakes were engaged. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact was informed that the vehicle was designed to lose pressure and the brake pedal to fade. The dealer also stated that there was no remedy for the problem. Another dealer confirmed that information. The failure mileage was 600.updated01/24/11 updated 04/21/11
I am filing this report to have documentation for my records. It is on my 2010 corolla now having complete brake failure issues. It started on feb. 21,2010. The brakes started to go completely to the floor.on february 24, the brakes went completely to the floor at a 5 way intersection, and i went through a stop light. I could not stop the car. That same day i went through a stop sign and had to jam on my emergency brake, so i didn't go onto a major traveled route in vermont.this is the same problem i reported to the nhtsa on 12/12/09. The odi number is 10295431. I would like to know what was done with that complaint? did it ever get forwarded to mr. Toyodo himself, congress (for the hearings?). I had complete brake failure issues for over 14 months with my 2009 corolla. What did you do with that information? the only recall i saw was for the prius? what a joke! now my 2010 corolla has complete brake failure.again toyota gets away with covering up their mistakes, and your agency does nothing. The same as covering up the new pedal recall not correcting the issue of acceleration (my odi number for this is 10314851). I have all my records and am showing them to the media (national & local). I am stating below the incident date for my current car brake failure issues is february 21st. I am however stating injuries and reported to the police.i had an acceleration incident on january 18, 2010 with my 2009 corolla . During the incident i had complete brake failure and was injured. I did report it to the police.
Driving 2010 toyota le on highway, turned off highway, turned to off ramp as power steering allowed car to veer to the left side of the highway. As the car approached the stop sign, the foot brake was applied, and felt spongy and the car suddenly veered to the left side of the road and came to a stop facing oncoming traffic which could have caused an accident. Contacted the dealership that told me to bring the car in for inspection. An appointment was made for today.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving 50 mph, the driver attempted to decelerate as the engine rpms increased rapidly.

I bought a 2010 corolla s model in oct 15, within a month i have experienced a strange noise coming from under the vehicle, this happened when turning at low speeds and going over a speed bump at low speed i have less than 1,000 miles and have heard this noise three times. Very concerned bought this vehicle new!
I just received a recall notice from toyota concerning a 19 state recall of 'ssc 90h - certain 2009-2010 corolla and corolla matrix brake system vacuum port special service campaign".this notice advises (under "what is the condition"? "if the vehicle is operated under extremely low temperatures, there is a possibility that condensed moisture from a positive crankcase ventilation (pvc) portmay seep into the brake system vacuum port ("port") and freeze.the port is located inside the intake manifold and provides vacuum assist for the brakes.should this condition continue, ice may slowly accumulate at the port and in the worst case, ultimately plug the port.as a result, power assist to the brakes would gradually decrease (eventually to zero), and the increased pedal pressure required could lead to greater vehicle stopping distances.""what should you do?""if you believe that there is a possibility for your vehicle to be operated in the 19 specified states or in the conditions described above, please contact any authorized toyota dealer and ...."this description of the problem is very subjective("possibility of condensed moisture...", "ice may slowly accumulate..."if you believe there is a possibility for your vehicle to be operated..." .i have already operated the vehicle in nevada (one of the 19 states listed).if this is really a safety concern i would think that all vehicles should be either a) fixed with the redesigned air intake connector or b) provide the vehicle with a safety warning sticker (placed prominently on the steering wheel?) that advises the driver that this vehicle has not been fitted with the redesigned air intake connector and that vacuum brake failure may occur whenever the outside temperature is below x degrees f (y degrees c) for periods greater than i hours.without specifics i don't know if i should receive this new part, and if i elect not to, how do i pass on the possible extended low temperature impact to future owner(s)?

The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla le. While sitting idlein the parking position, the vehicle momentarily lunged forward. While traveling at various speeds as low as 50 mph, the vehicle would veer to the right. Also, the keyless remote, which also acts as a vehicle locator, would only operate intermittently. Often, the vehicle locator alarm would go off on without driver input. The dealer advised changing the batteries in the keyless remote. That did not correct the failure. The dealer then attempted to reprogram the keyless alarm sensor and advised the locator could only be used for short-range locating. No further repairs were performed on the vehicle. The failure and current mileages were approximately 6,300. The consumer stated the brakes did not perform as designed. Updated 07/19/10

I have a toyota corolla 2010,i had it since june 2010, . I went through a major car accident on hw 1 ca @ 8:45 am on tuesday which was a sunny, clear , not foggy nor rainy day (weather condition was perfect),i was driving on 63 mph (normal speed is 65) on the fast left lane and suddenly i felt that the left front tire is veering the car into a different direction actingas if it below up (but it didn't) and my car is veering to the left , my steering wheel is lockedand is not responding at all when trying to change the car directionto the right. There was no way to drive the car in a straight line. The steering wheel failed completely to respond to any attempt to turn it to the right in an attempt to gain control over the car and attempting to drive itin straight line. Brakes as well were not responding. All attempts to stop the car or turn it to the right to avoid bumping the railsand keep it straight in the lane failed. I completely lost control over the car & it started fishtailing in the front. The car didn't stop until it bumped into the guarding rail, at this moment the car just stopped and it took the car more than 20 feed to automatically stop by it self. I failed to stop it.at this moment the car corrected its direction &went in straight line direction scrubbing against the rail completely damaging the entireleft side of the car before it stall. Then all the dash board lights and car sounds went on and the car stalled. The car was not in a drivable condition so i had to tow it away. I have a witnesswho described my accident saying that my car kept swerving to the left & was ambiguouslyuncontrolled, he was the one that took care of me after the car bumped the rail.this accident is alife threatening accident not only for me but also for others on the hw. I was lucky it happened on my way home after i dropped off my son to school ,the two car seats i had in the car were damaged,the car damage was estimated by $10,000. I suffer from a severe pain.
The car was taken into the dealership on february 15 by me and i reported the car pulling to the right as into traffic if i was in the passing lane when the brakes were applied. The manufacture kept the car for two hours, returned it to me claiming something in the brakes were not lined up, but claimed the problem was fixed and the brakes had been "lubricated". February 17, 2010 the brakes released after being applied to avoid hitting a car ahead of my car who had slammed on their brakes. I reapplied the brakes and heard an extreamly loud noise comming from my corolla, then the brakes caught and i was able to slow down enough to avoid hitting the car and finally stopped.
Grinding noise coming out of the front brakes due to warpage in the front rotors.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact was driving approximately 35 mph when the brakes were applied but the vehicle did not stop until it crashed. The air bags did not deploy.a police report was filed. The driver suffered a serious injury. The vehicle was towed to an independent repair shop where the contact was told that the brakes were not functioning.the vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileages were 5,000. The vin was unavailable.
My 2010 toyota corolla often makes a loud noise coming from under the engine compartment along with friction onto the brake pedal, sometimes it occurs when driving over rough or bumpy roads or when braking in emergency (hard braking). Dealer says they have checked the car and have been unable to recreate the problem the two (2) times i have had it checked.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the brakes seemed to release when she drove approximately 5 mph over a bumpy surface. The vehicle also occurred while driving over icy roadsurfaces or rocks. The failure mileage was 100. The current mileage was 2,452.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla.the contact stated when depressing the brakes and releasing, there was an abnormal clunk noise.the noise had not caused a defect in the vehicle but the contact was concerned that in the future, the vehicle could possibly exhibit a braking failure.the dealer advised there were no failures within the braking system. The vehicle was not repaired. A failure did not exist in the vehicle but was noticed when the vehicle had only accrued 1 mile. The current mileage was unknown.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that she constantly experienced unintended acceleration with the vehicle which would suddenly surge forward. The contact also had difficulty stopping the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership where the vehicle was repaired. The failure continued so the vehicle was taken back to the dealership where the contact was informed that they could find nothing wrong with it. The failure continued to occur. The failure mileage was approximately 2,700. The current mileage was approximately 3,700.
At approximately 0600 on the above date i experienced a violent and near uncontrollable momentary disrupture of the abs/esc systems of my 2010 toyota corolla. Vehicle shook violently, steering locked and abs and esc control lights on dash lit up while i was making the transition from ih37 south to ih35 south in san antonio, tx. I was able to regain control by letting off of the brakes and throttle thus coasting through the left hand turn and barely missing the retaining wall. This is not the first time this has happened, the first was only days after purchase of car. Local dealer maintenance personnel stated "we can't find anything wrong with the car." during the warranty period the problem has been brought to the attention of mccollums toyota five other times all with the same "we can't find anything wrong" reply. Complaints of soft brake pedal brought a similar "that's normal" retort each time the vehicle was in for service. After the warranty expired, front rotors and pads were replaced because they were found to have worn/groved approximately 1/8" deep per side (not reported by dealer), not from metal to metal contact but just wear from pads friction material. Pads still had 1/2" of friction material on each. Replacement of rotors and pads from auto zone made things better until now. Request abs/esc software be checked on all 2008 to 2012 corolla/scion tc models along with check of materials used in pads and the rotors. Oem rotors taken off car will be available until 15 jan 2012. 36,000 miles on a set of rotors and pads are a little extreme when i have over 125,000 on my gm's rotors and 165,000 on my ford's rotorswith pads needing replacement around 45 to 55 k.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While the contact was driving approximately 45 mph the brake pedal was engaged which traveled to the floor. The vehicle failed to slow down and struck a pole.

The current mileage was 10,600.
When i quickly braked, the brakes shuddered and made a loud scraping noise.i noticed a slower response after pressing on the brake pedal. It has happened a few times before this incident.even driving on the highway, there is a noticeable amount of vibration coming from the brake pedal.
I applied my brakes to stop at an intersection,the brakes slipped: they did not hold, and my car crashed into caron the other side of the intersection. Prior to that event there had been a loud, metallic clatter when applying the brakes aggressively. The car is in the shop for major repairs.
Purchased the car jan. 2011, within the first 2 weeks, i had the first experience with vibration in the brake pedal when applying on uneven surface.in addition to the vibration there is a hesitation in braking. This problem has happened multiple times, mostly on uneven surfaces. Last week i had to stop suddenly fora deer and i really noticed how long it took to stop the vehicle.in addition, the noise (almost liking grinding) was very loud and the pedal vibrated.i have already taken the car back to the dealership and they assured me the brakes were fine. I have just made my second appointment.how do i ensure theyfix this to proper safety standards?
Prematurely failing: struts (repaired summer of 2013), water pump (repaired 10/15/13), brakes (repaired 10/15/13), and alternator (yet to be repaired).
When applying the brake pedal, sitting stopped in traffic, the brake pedal seems to fade away intermittently. You only loose about 1-2" of pedal height, but the car will start to roll forward if you do not notice it and apply more pedal pressure to stop the car. I am ase certified in brakes and it has a bad master cylinder. Toyota states the this is a "normal" condition for this vehicle and refuses to warranty this issue. This vehicle has 4800 miles on it.
I have a 2010 corolla with brake issues.whenever i go over a pothole or other bump at low speeds (under 25mph), the car makes a grinding 'metal on metal' noise. It feels kind of like tingling under your foot... Similar to a pulse.the car 'jumps forward' a small bit before it slows down to a stop. I find the 'jumping' issue very unsettling. It is like the car accelerates slightly even though you are using the brakes and trying to slow.the major issue is that the car does not stop--the brake pedal feels disengaged while it grinds and pulses.i have had my car serviced and they tell me it is the abs and there is no problem. But obviously there is a problem and other people are having this issue as well. I have driven the 2005 corolla model, as well as other cars with abs brakes, and never encountered brake issues like this. I feel very unsafe in my 2010 corolla and honestly, may try to trade it in even though i've only had it a year and would be losing a lot of money.
I purchased a new toyota corolla in jan 2010. I took it to the dealerfor gas pedal recall in the first week of feb. After that i started facing brake issues. One day my car moved few inches back on uphill in spite of me applying the brakes. I called the dealer right away. They refused to take a look the same day as they did not have time.next morning the brakes failed again when i was driving downhillresulting in me hitting the car infront. I again took my car to thedealer. After test driving they tell me that they can not repro theproblem.the issue with the brake is an intermittent one. It does not alwayshappen, but when it does it is very dangerous.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact was driving at approximate speeds of 20-25 mph and approaching a traffic stop. As he proceeded to accelerate from the stop, the vehicle would not respond. Suddenly, there was an unusual increase in engine rpms and the vehicle abnormally accelerated at a rapid rate of speed. The contact placed the vehicle in neutral and engaged the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where repairs were made under nhtsa recall campaign id number 10v023000 (vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal). In addition, the contact stated when applying the brakes, he would hear a loud unusual noise. The dealer was unable to duplicate the brake failure and there were no further repairs made to the vehicle. The failure mileage was 3,865 and the current mileage was 3,904.
2010 corolla s.when hitting pothole, uneven surfaces, or when vehicle weight shifts such as going over the top of a hill the vehicles abs comes on and vehicle delays in stopping.the brake pedal vibrates but the car is not in a skid happens at low speeds 25 miles per hour or less.
Last month, in june, i had a problem with my 2010 toyota corolla.i pulled out of a parking lot and was not going fast.i was approaching a steep hill and wanted to brake but i could not.in order to stop the car and avoid the hill, i crossed to the other side of the street into someone's lawn in order to give the car enough friction to stop.i ended up hitting a slope and the car stopped... But not from my brakes.since i was going very slow, no one in my car was hurt. One of the passengers in my car told me to try again.i drove the car around the lot and the brakes worked.it has been almost a month and toyota recently sent out a third party to inspect the vehicle.the car is currently sitting on my dealerships lot. They did not find anything wrong but i am absolutely sure that something is wrong because i pushed down on the brake the entire time before i hit the slope in the lawn.i am still waiting to hear an official response from toyota, the actual company.
I purchased a brand new 2010 corolla at toyota city, mamaroneck, ny on 8/31/09. I felt vibration in the steering mechanism, a strange feeling in the brakes,heard a noise in steering wheel, and a strange feeling in the way the car rode immediately when turning and brought the car back to the dealership on 10/5/09. I did not bring it back right away due to time constraints, and i felt maybe i needed to get used to the car. I had a 2003 corolla before, and this car felt completely different in its ride. Not as tight a ride. On 10/5/09 the car was in the shop all day and they found it had warped rotors and needed new brakes. They told me the car's brakes maybe had gotten wet sitting in the rain, which caused the problem. I felt that was very odd on a brand new car, and with its predelivery inspecting this was missed. They covered the repair. I drove the car again and brought it back on 10/19/09. There was still the same problem, with a vibration in the steering wheel. This time they balanced the tires. Again, not clear why they did not do this before. I still heard a noise in the steering wheel and felt the car did not have a tight driving feel. They told me to live with the steering wheel problem. It was how the power assist system worked in the steering wheel.the steering feels completely different from my 2003 toyota corolla. I have felt the brakes do not respond well, and pulsate on engagement, and i feel the car still moves forward, when trying to stop. On 1/23/10 i hit a deer. I live in an area where there a lot of deer and for 18 years have been able to stop and never hit one. Not sure what went wrong here. On 2/5/10, green tree toyota in danbury, ct test drove my car for the brakes. Said they were fine. I feel i do not have control of this vehicle like i did with other toyotas and feel there is something very wrong with the brakes and steering.
I was driving slowly cause of snowy conditions, i applied the brakes gently startingalmost 20 -30 ft before reaching the vehicle in front of me, to make a stop but there was no response and the car just rolled on to hit a ford suv.with the brake fully depressed i was almost 10 feet away from the vehicle in front.no one was injured.the car did not swing orskid, it went straight. My car front bumper and hood was damaged.this is my first accident in my driving career.i took my car to the dealer, and lodged a complaint with toyota.

Purchase new 2010 toyota corolla dec. 18 2009. Under all braking conditions stopping at a red light or stop sign. Under normal braking conditions driving down the road. You touch the brake pedal and it does not engage. There is way to much brake pedal travel before you get any braking response. There is 1/2 inch pedal movement before you get any brake response at all. This problem occurs everytime you brake. Return to toyota dealer for repair 12/21/09. No repair was done. They said that was the way the new braking system worked. Just get use to it.
I want to share my experience with toyota corolla that i bought from germain toyota in sarasota in july of 2009. While driving on i-275, i applied brakes. For a moment the brakes did not work, and car kept racing. I sent car back to dealer, the dealer inspected the car and found nothing wrong with the brakesplease note, i raised the issue with dealer in aug 2009, much before the official recall was ordered. The dealer was concerned and did tow the car to dealership and had the brake assembly inspected.i have dealer report, and this incident is recorded with the dealer.
I have been taking my corolla to the dealership almost every week since 01/28/2010 and every week i complained about how the car was drifting side to side and how on low windy days i have to fight the steering wheel to keep it in its lane at speeds above 65mph. And every time i take it over there they say "well the car is working to factory standards" and they will send me on my way. I have had my brakes bled and my car alignment done twice and the car only has 2000+ miles on it. So i took the car back to the dealership from where i bought it and they gave me thiscust states vehicle is all over the road at highway speeds like the computer is driving the car on its own ~|~performed health check on all systems. No trouble codes stored. Test drove vehicle on 10 mile trip and ~|~vehicle performed as designed at this time. Please direct customer to toyota at 1-800-331-4331 if they have any other questions. So i took the car back and called the # to them and they said since the tech could not find the problem then there is no problem. Bull. So on 03/01/2010 i took my car back in to the dealership to have someone go on a drive with me and i made sure it was a windy day so they can see how hard it is to keep the car centered in its lane. The mechanic that went with me said oh i see what you are talking about he even had a hard time keeping the car from wondering off. So he said well it could be the tires are not to the right pounds. I said nope i had the air done to factory standards of 35psi all around. So he said he will need the car for over a day and scheduled appt for me to come in i took it back on 03/03/2010 and haven't had my car back since then. They still have my car in the shop as i type. So there is definitely a problem with the car. I feel like i can hurt or even kill someone in the car because of it. I have had more problems with this car and its not even 60 days old yet. Plus i already had the recall done on it too.
While traveling at about 50 mph the gauges went instantly from 50 to 0.at the same time multiple warning lights came on the dash. The car still had power when stepping on the gas, lights and radio were still on.when attempting to turn to get off the road, then steering wheel clicked and locked.there was no steering.my brakes did work.it was as if the car had shut itself off and then back on, but didn't unlock the steering.the car was new with less than 300 miles on it.this was the first incident of this kind,i hadno other problems with the car until then.the car was towed to the local dealership.it was tested the next day & i was told it was a speed sensor, but the sensor was not replaced.they connected it to the computer and reprogrammed it and said it was good to go.i refused to accept it until they could tell me why it happened and what they had replaced to guarantee it would not happen again.they were unable to do so and ended up replacing my car with a new one.

For car braking system: as you press the brake pedal, you have to press it really hard for it to start to stop the car,if you stop the car, and release the break pedal the car goes so fast that it seems like you are pressing the gas pedal ( but nobody is pressing no pedal at all). The braking on a shallow road makes the car shake especially the braking pedals and it makes noise, and at the same time it is needed to put some extra force and push the brakes really hard for it to work, the road does not need to be that bad for it to happen, at times it happens on a very small depression.
I drive a 2010 toyota corolla.there is something wrong with the antilock brake system; especially if i am trying to apply the brake to slow the car and am making a right turn(even slightly turning right).it'slike the brakes lock up and the steering gets like a mac truck.this also happens when i go over a bump and/or pothole.it most recently even happened when i was driving down the highway and there was a slight right curve in the road and i wasn't applying the brakes.i took the car into the dealership today and they could find nothing wrong.within an hour of leaving the dealership; it happened twice yet they couldn't duplicate the problem.i have a brand new car and am afraid to drive it.supposedly my car wasn't recalled for the gas pedal because it was made in japan but feel like the gas pedal is sticky at times.i am very upset because i just put all this money out and i have an unsafe vehicle to drive.my daughter and i were going to try and drive across country this summer and now we cannot possibly for we donot feel safe in this car.toyota should have to buy back the vehicles.i believe there is a much bigger problem causing all this that they are not admitting and/or have not found yet.i didn't complain or take the car back right away because i had similar problems with the scion xd and was told there was nothing wrong again and again.this is an ongoing problem.

1. 2010 toyota corolla s was purchased from a toyota dealer with 8 miles.right after going off the lot, and onto the freeway, car was unstable.even if you hold the steering wheel straight, the car wants to jump left and right randomly.basically it is unstable.2. Car is unstable and requires more than normal concentration and more effort to drive straight, as car does not track straight.3. Vehicle was brought to dealer with approximately 185 miles.test drove with technician, who said it veers slightly right.alignment was done.the front was off by a bit and corrected.but rear of car was out of spec with regards to left and right toe.basically both rear wheels facing towards the left.toyota dealer said they are unable to repair this problem.i bring in a toyota technical service bulletin that addresses on-center steering feel.the document requires alignment done, then power-steering ecu replaced.my ecu is then replaced at the dealership, but alignment in rear is not adjusted, since the dealer said it is not adjustable.they give me back the car with the new ecu even if rear toe is off along with total rear camber.they also say that total rear toe is correct at .38 deg, but even if left and right rear toe is off, as long as total rear toe is good, car is within toyota specifications and tolerances.i do not agree with the statement.if left and right toes are off, then car is not aligned.right rear toe is out of spec by .15 degrees while left rear toe is off by -.09 degrees.i take the car and drive it for 1 day and a half, and the car veers right on the freeway.if it hits a bump on a turn, it usually makes the car want to jump right.basically proving that the rear toe is out of specifications.
At speed it is difficult to steer and control my 2010 toyota corolla s.it "drifts" from side-to-side.if i do not use both hands, the car drifts from the lane marker, and at times into the next lane (to my left).i have to overcompensate and correct to the right so that i do not strike someone. The steering feels very loose. I first noticed this characteristic a few weeks after purchase (approximately 12-20-09.their is not one particular incident, but rather it is a persistent characteristic of the steering.
While my daughter was taking a left hand turn into supermarket entrance, her steering locked up on her.she has been driving this car since middle of june 2014 when car was purchased for her.i have owned toyotas in the past, and have known them to be reliable vehicles.this incidence has happened multiple times since this time, and toyota apparently knows of the problem.they even recognize it as being some form of electronic powering steering issue, whose cost is upwards of 1400.00 to repair.i am completely dumbfounded by this (clearly a safety issue), that is suppose to cost me, the consumer another 1400.00 to repair.i have read of this issue in previous logs, news reports, and complaints.why has toyota or nhtsa not forced this issue.i believe now that this is unsafe for my daughter to drive, and do not have the funds to purchase another vehicle. If safety is not a concern here, i am not sure what merits that distinction.signed, a very upset parent and once loyal toyota customer.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 65 mph, the steering wheel seized without warning. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who was unable to diagnose the issue. The vehicle was not repaired and the failure recurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that there were no recalls on the issue; however, there were other open recalls on the vehicle and assisted the contact with making a repair appointment. The approximate failure mileage was 59,444.
I bought corolla 2010 in oct 2009. I had the problem of it wandering and hard to keep the car in the lane. I took it to dealership and they told me it was alignment problem. After it was there for a day it started wandering in the other direction. Then they told me it could be tire pressure and took it back to the dealership. I still have the same problem and it wanders at speed above 50 mph. Isaw there have been more reports about it and i hope toyota does something about it.
I purchaseda 2010 toyota corolla s4/22/10 .on the 70 mile drive home , i noticed that the car wandered alot as if it were being buffeted by wind. At times the car would even cross the center line into oncoming cars. This is a very dangerous problem with this steering. My 2009 didn't have this issue. If any policeman were following me ,they would probably assume i was drunk.
We have a 2010 toyota corolla. We bought it for our daughter to commute to college. It was purchased in may 2009 from freedom toyota in harrisburg, pa. After questioning her about any problems with the gas pedal, she said the 'stuck pedal syndrome'happened to her also this past fall. It was taken care of by a dealer in allentown, pa. She then also mentioned that the steering wheel 'jerks out of her hand' when driving. This has happened to her more than once. The dealer in allentown was told of this, along with the fact that she had a problem with her driver side window not rolling down when the switch was activated. This happened to her once. This dealer could not duplicate the 2 above mentioned other problems. I told her she is to document any future issues with this car. I am estimating the incident dates. She said they took place in the fall semester. I do not have the information available as to what her speed was at the time the steering wheel had a habit of jerking out of her hand. I do know that there is highway commuting involved along with non highway driving involved.
Steering and gas throttle problem. Sometimes having difficulties steering the vehicle straight and it feels like you 're not in control with the wheel. Even sometimes at lower speed. Regarding gas throttle there are times that the gas pedal is not responding while you are steeping the gas pedal. It's like driving on a neutral gear. We have not reported the steering problem but we have reported the gas pedal issue twice to the dealer. It so happen that the 2nd complain we did was the time they started doing the recall. Gas pedal where change as the recall required.the steering problem is now a newer concern for us. We have experienced the problem with steering before but we just ignore it. Because it's been raining in our area during the fast few weeks. We where thinking that the roads are just wet andsomewhat it is slippery to drive but even the weather had changed we sometimes experienced the same problem with the steering. Last encounter with the steering problem is today(02/20/2010).
I have a 2010 toyota corolla. I am scared to drive it on the highway.the steering is very sensitive and i cannot keep it on the road if over 65 mph. It feels like your are hydroplaning, the wind is blowing you all over the road.my boyfriend followed me home and said it look like i was doing dwi on i-95. If the wind blows just a little bit, you are all over the road. This is very dangerous,i have taken it back to the dealer 3 times.the first time the salesman explained it was electrical steering and i will get use to it.the second time was with the technician who wouldn't go with me on the i-95 and twice the alignment.the 3rd time 2 days later and that is when they couldn't help me and said they logged it with toyota.i am very mad and upset.i feel i purchased my car in good faith and now i am stuck with a car costing $353 amonth for the next 5 years, that is a chore to drive on the highway. This is my 3rd toyota in 20 years.i am very upset because i didn't drive any other vehicle before purchasing this vehicle because i trusted toyota.i have logged a complaint with office of consumer affairs under the lemon law and with the manufacture. I feel i have been betrayed by toyota b/c they were aware of the problem and lied to me the first 2 times.my name is [xxx], i can be contacted at [xxx] and my email address is [xxx].information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
I have a 2010 corolla it constantly sways while driving at freeway speeds. Sometimes i need to hold onto the steering wheel with both hands to keep it from going into another lane. I switched from driving a small vw beetle and was familiar with strong winds causing these problems but when i looked out the window there was no wind all the trees were still and no flags were waving. There has been a couple of times when i really felt the car was going to swerve out of control if i didn't immediately slow down. I also feel a metal grinding sensation with my brakes when i slow down over uneven pavement or go over a speed bump. This doesn't happen every time but in the past 2 months that i've had the car it occurred 6 times. I told the toyota dealership about these problems and they said it couldn't be duplicated and that there was nothing wrong with the car. Which is completely ridiculous there hasn't been a time that i've driven on the freeway and not felt this swaying. They didn't even try to find a problem. They didn't do a thing to help me. Than i heard of other corolla owners having the same problems. So i know it's not just me, there is a problem with my car and they need to recognize they made another mistake.
1. Within 2 weeks of leasing a 2010 corolla, i noticed the car moving to the right or left. Seems to want to pull. 2. It has occurred on several occasions sine the lease date of 1/16. Thankfully, no consequences.3. Technician test drove and did not find problem. Suggested to drive together and it was noted. Informed to schedule another visit for wheel alignment.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla and at highway speeds the car "drifts" , at lower speeds it does not occur. This issue is very much a concern as at expressway speeds it seems the steering is very loose, effecting the stability and control of the vehicle.
When i am driving on the high way, my steering wheel becomes very sensitive and starts jerking and my car starts veering to one side. I have to grab the steering wheel very tightly just to travel in a straight line. I feel like i'm driving in a hurricane but the trees outside are barely moving.
Took delivery of my new 2010 toyota corolla on january 13th, 2010.i am experiencing steering problems where the car drifts/shifts at highway speeds without any input.feels like a stiff wind pushing the car from one side to another.
My 2010 toyota corolla steering is difficult to control. The car wanders around the road. I thought it was the alignment. Despite an alignment service, the steering is still very difficult and exhausting. The wandering, corrective steering measures that have to be taken and constant vigilance when driving are exhausting. It is a difficult car to drive, particularly in heavy traffic with narrow roads and at the higher cruising speeds. This has been going on since i purchased the car from the showroom.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 50 mph, the steering wheel became difficult to turn and the contact had to apply force to the steering wheel in order to steer the vehicle. The failure recurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was taken to a dealer who was unable to diagnose or repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 58,872.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact was driving up an incline approximately 55 mph, the contact applied extreme force numerous times to the accelerator pedal before acceleration would occur. The failure occurred after the recall remedy repair was performed on the vehicle associated with nhtsa campaign id number 10v017000 (vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal). In addition, there were several times the vehicle would pull in the opposite direction and wander unintended. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired for the failures. The vehicle had been driven six times since the recall repair due to the significant concern of the potential safety hazard. The vin was unavailable. The failure mileage was approximately 40.
Highway driving car drifts from side to side.constantly correcting steering.uncomfortable / unsafe ride.almost like i was on black ice as car oscillates left to right.
Total loss of vehicle..police report is incomplete of details, due to officer "not believing me" and "purposely leaving report incomplete because of this being the second time out here on this call", when i tried to explain what happen while driving this toyota corolla, however the tow truck driver is a witness and agreed to testify..i have called toyota several times and have got nothing.. Property damage was done on third party property as well.
I have a brand new corolla 2010 i bought this may of 2010. If i drive on the freeway, i have to continuously control the way the car moves. It will not go straight in the lane. The car will wander and its like the wind is hitting my car. I'm returning it this week, but i really hope this will get fixed soon.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 65 mph he was unable to keep the vehicle in the center lane because the vehicle veered to the left and right side of the lane. The toyota dealer was called and stated that they would send a representative to pick up his vehicle and perform a diagnostic test. The vin was unknown. The failure mileage was 714.
Sudden failure of steering while driving. Current mileage around 116,000.had been driving for about 30min around 15-35mph on city streets when steering suddenly locked up at about 15mph while i was merging lanes. Became incredibly difficult to turn steering wheel. After 3 straight blocks and no cars in the road, i had to use 3 lanes and alot of force to attempt to turn right in order to get off the main road and on to a side street. I let running car sit for about 5 minutes while i tried to call for help...then the steering suddenly started to work again and was able to drive again. I'm very concerned about this happening again. This is extremely dangerous. I can't imagine what would happen on a freeway.
I got a letter for spiral cable assembly recall..when i went to toyota dealer(2100 w maple lawn dr), he said don't have parts and does not received any information from toyota for this spiral cable recall fix. I wasted my 2hrs of time by traveling in traffic.need to know, when dealer will get parts and fix it.
I recently purchased a corolla 2010 replacing my 2003 corolla and one thing i immediately noticed that my new corolla constantly requires my two hands on the wheel because it feels like i am driving in very high wind area, and let alone driving next to a big trucks which almost becomes very dangerous to control the car. Please look into it.

I have a 2010 corolla and until i spoke to another owner i thought this problem may have been me. It seems to me the steering is jumpy or hard to hold a line. I can be driving down the road in what i would call a straight line and the car will sometime jump to the right or left but yet i never moved the wheel. My wife actually thought at one time i was swerving on purpose.
I own a 2010 corolla-it is at the dealer again. Now i have heard there might be a problem. I was taking my car to the dealer before any of this news came out-asking them to check the front end. The cars keeps going in other lanes and has almost caused an accident. But the dealer insist there is nothing wrong with my car. Help at this point i am scared of the car. There have been several incidents.
There was no incident as of this date however there could be if something is not done.my 2010 toyota corolla has a glitch in the power steering and toyota does not have a recall on it in the united states. I have seen an article in the paper regarding toyota recalling 185,000 vehicles in japan and europe due to a power steering glitch.i have spoken to toyota in california about my car and my concern but they just take my information and say that they'll put it on record. This is not acceptable to me. I know of another customer of village cadillac and toyota in homosassa, florida (which is where my car was serviced) had the same problem. Also the previous owner of my toyota expressed a concern about the power steering.i do know that toyota changed the power steering to an electrical type power steering in late 2009 but changed it back to their old system by late 2010, this tells me they knew there was a problem and this is 2013 and there's been no recall yet. Does someone have to die first?i really would appreciate your help in this matter.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving at various speeds, the vehicle steering would become hard to turn and increasingly difficult to maneuver.

Updated 10/19/10
Steering issues......vehicle begins shaking at speeds over 35 mph.
I am a new owner of a 2010 toyota corolla. I am experiencing steering problems on the expressway where the car wants to drift from side to side and requires constant correction by the driver to maintain proper control. This is an ongoing occurrence and not due to any particular road conditions. I contacted my local dealership where i purchased the car and they said that they have not had any other similar complaints even though researching the internet i found that others were experiencing the same problem. It also stated that there were less than 100 complaints, so i wanted to make sure that i reported mine.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. When driving the vehicle drifts to the right and left side of the road. He stated that the vehicle has electronic power steering therefore it is a fabric defect. He will take the vehicle to the dealer, and demand a buy back. The failure mileage was 160. The current mileage was 800. The vehicle identification number was unavailable.
Rental car, toyota corolla in los angeles was extremely hard to steer.as i was going down highway at speeds above 40 miles per hour it was as if i was driving through a wind storm.the car would not maintain lane very well and the steering wheel travel required to keep it in line was excessive.the wheel position had to be maintained not with slight movement but sweeping movements from positions about 10 to 2 on a clock face.due to only using the car to drive from the airport to the hotel and back, most of my driving was highway on smooth roads with no adverse weather or traffic conditions.
2010 toyota corolla - when you go highway speeds it steers itself. I almost hit a bus today.its had this steering issue since the purchase date. I've taken the vehicle to get serviced at the vero beach,fl toyota dealer twice but the problem persists.
I bought a new 2010 toyota corolla s and realized that i can't control the steering at speeds over 50mph. This problem was noted, to my salesman,the same day i purchased the car. My whole family, including myself, made a living selling cars. I've driven in many different cars and know when something isn't right. The corolla's steering is dangerous and unsafe to be on the road. The dealership service manager even noted that there is a steering issue, but toyota doesn't have a fix. I talked to a representative at toyota's corporate office, but he told me they can't help until their is a problem. When i drive on the express way the car's steering is unpredictable, unsafe, and defective. I'm forcedto drivethis car because it's my only means of transportation.
Purchased a 2010 corolla last august.the steering is "sloppy", "loose" - like there's excessive "play" in the wheel - and needs constant correction, or the car will wander all over the place.a long trip in this vehicle would be an exhausting adventure.and there's only a thousand miles on it.you can add my name to the list of owners who feel this particular model has a steering problem.
At highway speeds my cars steering feels as if it were a windy day, it takes a lot of correction of the steering wheel to keep the car straight. It has even swerved to other lanes before almost causing me to crash. The car feels unsafe and toyota needs to acknowledge this problem before any injuries occur.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla and am awaiting the repair for the accelerator issue.this complaint is related to the electric power steering.the car does not want to track in a straight line.you must keep both hands on the wheel and are constantly tweaking the steering wheel to the right and left to keep the vehicle driving straight.the higher the speed, the more problematic the steering is.gusty winds make you feel like you could lose control at any minute.i am hoping that toyota will step up and acknowledge an issue with the steering is the vehicle can be exhausting to drive like this.each tiny input forces the car to veer in that direction immediately and you then correct to the other direction and it veers that way.i have never owned a car that required this much attention and effort to drive in a straight line.
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla in december. During the test drive i commented that the steering felt funny, but the dealer and i chalked it up to the road conditions. I continue to observe that the car is weaving back and forth especially on the freeway. If i hadn't seen the news story about this issue, i probably would have just assumed that the steering was "touchy" for lack of a better word. Now that i know that this is a real safety issue, coupled with the gas pedal issue, i will be contacting the dealer.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the vehicle moved from side to side while driving making it hard to stay in the lane while driving approximately 50 to 60 mph.the vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 22,000.
Bought a new 2010 toyota corolla s.drove it on the highway.the steering is horrible.the car will veer to the right, then with a small correct, will pull to the left.you get it going straight then it will pull one way or the other all by itself.kind of like it is really windy, but today was a calm day.this is going to cause an accident.from what i have been reading, a lot of other people have complained.what are you waiting for?someone to die?
2010 toyota corolla steering is too sensitive and you can't keep the car straightin your lane.
2nd complaint different problem. 2010 toyota corollapurchased 9/10 made wide rt turn off exit ramp at steady35 mph off hwy. Onto another hwy. Then resumed 60 mph.front of car wobbled noticeably. Got home ok. Have been driving car to work but not on hwy or at hwy speeds and if feels ok. Have appt at dealer to have this problem looked at along with stiff steering.
At speeds over 50 mph the 2010 corolla s has steering wander - does not hold center very well - constantly have to correct direction to keep it straight - gets tiring after a while - just figured there was nothing i could do about it so i just lived with problem until reading an article about the nhtsa checking into problem so i told [xxx]in service dept.at dry ridge toyota in ky. About problem ( oct - 2013 ) and he saidhe would check into it and see if toyota would offer a fix - no response from toyota after over 6 months its now ( may - 2014 )i have checked back every month with [xxx] but he says still nothing from toyota - so im now filing this complaint with nhtsa.......... Also the speed control jerks car very hard as it reengages while going up a hill sometimes approx. 25 mph to 45 mph ......... Also the antilock brakes cause the front end of the car to jump up and down when trying to stop on slick rainy or snow roadsat slower speeds. Thank you.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
2010 corolla is unstable at speed over approximately 55 mph. The car wanders dangerously to left and right, being particularly vulnerable to any cross wind or turbulence from other vehicles. It is not possible to use any vehicle controls (such as turning on the defroster) while driving at highway speeds without having the car veer suddenly off course. The car feels as if it is missing a suspension component in the front end- there is a dangerous lack of stability at highway speeds. I even purchased new tires after only 2000 miles in an attempt to alleviate the problem, but it is the car and not the tires causing the problem. This car is unsafe at highway speeds.
On november 27, 2009, i bought a 2010 toyota corolla from lake city, fl toyota. While stopped at a red traffic light, i noticed that the brake pedal moved down more light air was in the brakes.this has happened twice.i also have heard a rubbing sound when i turn my steering wheel.that has happened twice also.my first payment is next month and i am very upset about this.i am taking my car into the toyota dealership in lake city, fl in the morning.
When i drove my 2010 corolla from the dealer it had five miles on it. Within one half mile i realized that the car wandered left and right and needed me to steer left and right to keep the car in the center of the road. I knew right away that the problem was the caster adjustment was set so the caster was faced forward. I brought it back and the service mgr said it was designed to have the caster set forward by two degrees. I am 72 and a car guy. A forward caster will cause the car not to be able to steer straight. It was to be driven by my grand daughter who has 18 months driving experience. We brought it in for service to have the caster set to 'follow' rather than 'lead'. The service people said it was set to toyota designs of two degrees forward. That is the problem along with, maybe, something in the electronic controls that might be adding to the problem. Someone is going to get killed. If toyota doesn't speak to this and correct it i need to have this car replaced by an amish horse and carriage. Toyota has introduced a new feature that is deadly.
On my 2010 toyota corolla, at highway speeds (65-70 mph), the vehicle will feel as though the steering is loose...like i'm going over a metal-grate bridge, where the car moves sideways on it's own.i drive approximately 100 highway miles a day, and this is a daily occurrence.i brought the vehicle to toyota on 3/4/10, but they claim they do not feel the steering problem.i don't feel it was sufficiently tested, as they did not do any highway driving.they've dismissed my fears and will not be correcting the problem.
1. 2010 toyota corolla s was purchased from a toyota dealer with 8 miles. Right after going off the lot, and onto the freeway, car was unstable. Even if you hold the steering wheel straight, the car wants to jump left and right randomly. Basically it is unstable. 2. Car is unstable and requires more than normal concentration and more effort to drive straight, as car does not track straight. 3. Vehicle was brought to dealer with approximately 185 miles. Test drove with technician, who said it veers slightly right. Alignment was done. The front was off by a bit and corrected. But rear of car was out of spec with regards to left and right toe. Basically both rear wheels facing towards the left. Toyota dealer said they are unable to repair this problem. I bring in a toyota technical service bulletin that addresses on-center steering feel. The document requires alignment done, then power-steering ecu replaced. My ecu is then replaced at the dealership, but alignment in rear is not adjusted, since the dealer said it is not adjustable. They give me back the car with the new ecu even if rear toe is off along with total rear camber. They also say that total rear toe is correct at .38 deg, but even if left and right rear toe is off, as long as total rear toe is good, car is within toyota specifications and tolerances. I do not agree with the statement. If left and right toes are off, then car is not aligned. Right rear toe is out of spec by .15 degrees while left rear toe is off by -.09 degrees. I take the car and drive it for 1 day and a half, and the car veers right on the freeway. If it hits a bump on a turn, it usually makes the car want to jump right. Basically proving that the rear toe is out of specifications.
Toyota corolla 2010 steering problemscar won't stay in the lane at highway speeds ....veers off to the left or right....
Car has been feeling strange at 60mph - pulls to left sometimes and if the wind blows it feels like its going to loose traction. Today this happened with some rain on the road care lost traction pulled left hit a transfer truck - spun around in the road into a hill and rolled. Car is totaled and my wife was lucky not to have been killed. The back of the car is gone! if this happens in the wind people are going to get killed in the rain.this needs fixed.
Basically, the car loses all its balance when you hit about 50mph on highway. Steering becomes vague. The car drifts left or right, as if a really strong wind hits the sides.instead of getting heavier, steering becomes so light, you can't keep the car in the lane. In two recent occasions, i almost hit the cars which were driving next to me, in their lanes.
I drive a 2010 toyota corolla. As i proceeded down my street at about 25mph, i suddenly heard a beeping noise and noticed the power steering warning light on my dash. A few seconds later, i lost control of my steering. The car slid to the right, into a ditch.i tried to steer left to bring the car out of the ditch, but nothing happened.i turned the steering wheel as far as i could to the left, and it slowly pulled the car out of the ditch.all of this happened in a matter of seconds.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that frequently has a strong gas smell and on 3 different occasions the steering has given me a sense of control loss similar to the sensation of hydroplaning.
2010 toyota corolla le - wandering, floating effect steering.on roads that slope to right of vehicle, occasionally vehicle will pull left sharply into incoming traffic.requires constant steering correction. When driving on a country road in the rain, car would pull sharply to the left when driving under low older power lines. Dealer mechanic test drive described "floating" wandering steering.alignment showed rear axle could not be aligned.tire inflation correct.dealer said that no repairs are available at this time.took vehicle to dealer three times asking for repairs.7400 miles on vehicle.
I recently purchase a 2010 corolla. The car does not handle well at highway speeds. When driving the car veers to the left and right with a need to correct the position of the car. Going at highway speeds and having your car sway from side to side is scary and it makes you feel that you can crash at any moment if you don't correct the steering wheel fast enough.
Steering too sensitive. Most notable at freeway speeds. Wont track correctly. Wants to drift either left or right. Correction only makes the car drift the other way. Must be very attentive or car could drift into other lane. Condition since new. Dealership has verified the problem but cant seem to fix it. Been to dealership service twice for this condition.
I have a 2010 corolla which i bought just a few weeks ago and i have been having problems with the steering from the start.when you are at freeway speeds it does not kept a straight line, it wanders to left and the right needing correction all of the time.it is very tiring and seems very dangerous.it talked to the dealer and toyota to report the problem, they said it is a normal driving condition at this time, not sure what this means.i hope they fix this soon or i hope to sell it back to toyota.i am very disappointed that is was not addressed in the 2009 model.
This was not a failure, but more of a constant problem. My 2010 toyota corolla has a serious tendency to want to wander in the lane. I drive to work everyday on the express way, about 25 miles. It requires constant monitoring and adjustments to keep the vehicle tracking straight. It actually feels like the car is always on a slippery road, even when the pavement is dry. As speeds increase the problem increases; it is always present. Never worse at one time than another. I have not reported this issue to the dealer, but i have an appointment today at 12:30 for the gas pedal recall, i will inform them of the issue as well.
I have a 2010 corolla s model with 44k miles on it . My wife commutes with this vehicle every day for work. I drive the vehicle on the weekends when we travel out of town. Last week while i was driving my wife's car i noticed that the steering felt loose and unresponsive at low and especially at freeway speeds. It almost feels like the car is hydroplaning. I asked my wife if she had noticed any difference in the car since we have owned it. She confirmed with me that the steering did feel significantly differentand described the feeling exactly like i had around the time i noticed it as well. I then got on the internet to do some research on this problem and i seen that there were many 2010 corolla owners that had the same problem as i. All research seems tobe linked with the electric power steering. I now feel the car is unsafe to put my family in especially since i had saw that there was 8 accidents and 11 injuries and 168 complaints linked to this problem on the (nhtsa) website.
I now have 47,000 miles on my corolla.today i was driving on the interstate and approached the speed of about 65 mph. I attempted to change to the right lane and the car would not turn. I did not know how to describe it other than to say that i had no control over the steering at all for about one quarter of a mile.i have since seen other complaints and can agree that it was as if the vehicle was hydroplaning and it was very scary. The car actually proceeded down the middle of the two right lanes and luckily no one was in the right lane or i would have had an accident.once i slowed down, control resumed and i pulled off the road and was very shaken. We took the car to toyota and the response from the service manager was that there have not been any complaints or recalls, but he would check it out (really?).he later called and said he found a brake problem, but nothing with the steering.not satisfied with this answer since i was driving the vehicle and i know what happened and there is a problem.he blew it off as wind or perhaps the road condition.it was not windy and i was on a smooth interstate highway.not meaning to be rude, but why does this investigation show closed with 298 complaints?why are those of us complaining not being taken seriously? the acceleration problem started with just a few and escalated.why can we not take care of this problem now before people are injured? and last, why does a safety issue such as this that should be considered high priority take so long to get something done? i am in sales so i drive a lot of miles and have owned several different vehiclesthis is the first time i have ever been concerned regarding my safety and that of others around me while operating my vehicle due to an issue i cannot control such as this.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving approximately 60 mph the vehicle became extremely difficult to control. The contact stated that while driving at faster speeds the steering wheel becomes stiff. The dealer was contacted and stated that the steering wheel would loosen up as the contact continued to drive since it was a new vehicle. The failure continued to occur. The approximate failure mileage was 125.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 30 mph, on the second day after the vehicle was purchased, the steering wheel was difficult to control which made it hard to continue driving straight without moving from the left and the right. He thought that since the vehicle was new it would adjust over time and began to function properly. After ten days he took the vehicle back to the dealer who stated that they were unable to duplicate or diagnose the steering failure. The failure mileage was 711. The current mileage was 6,000.updated 03/24/10 the consumer stated he has to constantly correct the steering to keep the vehicle straight. Updated 06/30/10.
We have a new 2010 toyota corolla with about 3,000 miles on it.the steering on this car is "strange" -- it has little to no road feedback and seems to have "dead spots" in it -- you have to give it more effort to get pass these.the result is that it is difficult to keep it in a steady/smooth line when driving on the highway -- you need to make constant corrective movements to the steering wheel.the fact that there is no road feel/feedback contributes to this problem.while i need to enter a date to proceed with this complaint form, this steering issue occurs at all times since we have owned the car.we also have a 2002 toyota avalon -- and its steering and road feel is great.
I know there have been some issues reported on power steering in 2010 corollas, and i have experienced something like this. We have noticed "wandering" while driving down the highway quite often. It will wander one direction and then when you straighten it back out, it will do it again. It will go both directions, so it's not alignment. I decided to pay very careful attention last time i drove it. While going highway speed of 60mph, i was heading straight, on a straight road. I felt the steering wheel tighten up a little and then the wheel itself turned about 1 inch from where i was holding it. This happened several times in about a 5 mile stretch and then it stopped. I didn't have any more issues with it the rest of my trip, which was about 160 miles. I have called our local toyota dealership where i bought it and they told me to bring it in so they could inspect. I got it back the next day and only a few miles were put on and they claimed nothing was wrong, so we have not had anything done to correct the issue.
My new 2010 toyota corolla has a problem when driven on the interstate. The car wobbles and i am constantly steering to keep it going straight. It doesn't seem stable--as if it's being buffeted by high winds even though it's a calm day. I am afraid it is going to veer off the road and therefore i have tried to avoid driving it on the interstate. I have spoken with the dealership and was informed that all the corollas are like that and it will only be fixed if there is a recall.
While driving at 35-40mph around a curve, i has pressed on the brake pedel to reduce speed an the vehicle failed to respond, but accelerated in speed while steering became inpossible to control, it was if the vehiicle was controlling it self.i had been drove into an through a ditch an out, hitting a mailbox, concrete lined driveway exiting the first ditch an entering another also hittng a street sign as well as a mile marker sign, my seat belt failed to lock which lead my headto repeatedlyhit the top of vehicles windshield as well as the steering wheel. Futhermore the airbag failed to deploy.i suffer from sever headaches, my vision in lt eye although inproved has greatly decreased, as well as memory.
The contact leased a 2010 toyota corolla. When the contact was driving over 40 mph or more the steering wheel independently caused the vehicle to move to the left and right. He experienced the failure with a previously leased toyota corolla. The vehicle was replaced; yet, he continued to experience the steering failure with the replacement vehicle. The manufacturer was notified but they have not returned his call. The failure mileage was 200 and the current mileage was 982.
Starting about 6 months ago vehicle began showing signs or problems described in t-sb-0140-10 titled steering on-center feel. Vehicle is near impossible to stay in a straight path over speeds of 30-40 mph. Vehicle is long since past, warranty, 2010 toyota corolla w/>106k. Original tsb dated june 3, 2010 instructed that toyota would repair without charge by replacing computer assembly, power steering if still under warranty, have come across numerous complaints and feel there should be further investigation to institute a full safety recall for this make and model.
When i tried to park the car, i noticed that steering was very difficult to turn. Several times i tried to park, and i did with difficulties, for the front and back. Later the steering was ok and drove the car. When i tried to park the car in my house happened again. The first time was easy, but i tried to figure out what happened: i put in neutral and moved the steering wheel, when i turned left the steering was very difficult to turn; i drove 100 mts and was very difficult to turn to any side; i returned to my house and was terrible to park, almost impossible.
Bought 2010 corolla in sept 2009, new from factory. Noticed the steering wheel seemed very loose and unresponsive from the day we took possession.told salesperson who said it was 'normal'.news media now reports steering issues with 2010 corollas - filing complaint to register with odi. No crash occurred, but steering should not be that loose on a new car.planning to take into dealer next month for eval.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that when trying to decelerate, the vehicle continued accelerating. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired.01/25/11*ljthe consumer also stated the vehicle was difficult to steer.
When making a right turn out of a parking lot my steering wheel locked. I turned off the car for about 5 minutes and when i turned it back on everything was fine. It is important to note that no indicator lights came on. The next day i took the car over to the toyota dealership. At this point the steering was fine. The dealership charged me 99 dollars and did a diagnostic, which turned up nothing. Assuming that the car was ok, and this steering wheel lock was just a one time thing i continued to drive the car as normal. A few days later the same thing happened. I went back to the dealer and they still couldn't find anything wrong. This steering lock keeps happening to me. The wheel locks, i turn off the car, i turn it back on and everything is fine. My biggest fear is that the wheel will lock in a place where i don't have the ability to pull over and turn the car off and on to get the wheel unlocked.after doing some research online i found that there are hundreds of people with the same problem. I contacted a independent mechanic who said the problem is most likely in the electric power steering motor. The part alone is about 1400 dollars. I know there are service bulletins out to dealers about the electronic power steering but i don't know if this is covered. I don't think its fair that i have to pay for a repair that is toyota's fault. There are multiple problems with toyota's and for that matter almost all car companies electronic power steering system. Why are these system still allowed to be used. The only one to suffer in the consumer. Anyway, my car is a 2010 toyota corolla le. Please let me know is there is a recall or a service bulletin to fix this problem.
At approx 11:30 pm on july 15th 2016, my fianc, myself and 2 of our friends were heading home from downtown miami on i-95. 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
When i drive the car at normal highway speeds the vehicle feels like a strong crosswind is blowing the car causing me to correct the feeling of the wind blowing the car. It can also be compared to the tires being caught in a groove in the road. When i correct the feeling of being pushed or pulled to one side the vehicle over corrects itself causing me to have to slow down or put a very firm two hand grip on the wheel to keep the vehicle straight. After i try to keep the wheel straight the vehicle will continue to do this side to side motion for a few more seconds on its own.
At highway speeds (55-70 mph) vehicle can't be driven on a straight line. As soon as you think it is going straight, it veers either to the right or left forcing constant corrections of the steering wheel. Sometimes you find yourself micro correcting it from side to side trying to find the center. I can categorize this issue as very distracting as too much attention is being diverted only to keep this car inside safe distances from other cars.
We purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s4 in feb. Of this year.i loved my toyota & the gas mileage i has getting (major reason we bought the corolla). However, i just took it on a long highway/interstate drive 7 hours there and back.i was shocked at how the vehicle handled at highway speeds.i did not feel safe going over 55 miles an hour.if i did not hold both hands on the wheel constantly, the vehicle felt as if it swaying as if a strong wind was pushing it side to side.i also own a subaru forester--a small suv.i have owned it for 6 years and never experienced on the highway what i did with the toyota corolla.i am extremely concerned and dismayed.
The contact owned a 2010 toyota corolla.the contact was driving 10 mph and attempting a right turn when the steering wheel locked and the vehicle would not respond. The vehicle veered out of its lane and crashed head on into another vehicle.the contact was not injured however, her passenger sustained injuries to the chest and neck. The driver of the other vehicle was also injured. The police and fire department arrived to assist. The fire department found the vehicle locked in first gear when they attempted to remove it. The vehicle was destroyed. A police report was available.the vehicle was in the possession of the contacts insurance company who would later investigate the failure.the failure mileage was approximately 10,000.
Just purchased new 2010 toyota corolla 4 days ago and i'm having steering difficulty at speeds of 60+ mph. The car is very difficult to keep centered in the lane and it constantly sways left and right. Steering correction is needed every few seconds to prevent unintended lane changes.it feels as if the car is being bounced around by strong winds, but no wind is present. The car feels out of control at highway speeds and i am very concerned as to its safety.
Extremely light steering at speeds over 50 miles per hour. Virtually no road feel. Sensation is similar to "driving" a video game. All control needs to be through vision as there is virtually no feeling of resistance in the steering wheel making the car very difficult to control on curves or when buffeted by winds produced by large trucks passing by. Very tiring to drive. Feels especiallyunsafe at night as in the dark there is less visual input regarding the upcoming road and with such minimal road feel through the steering wheel driving feels unsafe. This is a new car with less than 2,000 miles.replacement of the steering computer by the dealer did not sufficiently correct the problem.*ln
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. When driving the vehicle will begin to drift to the left.the vehicle was taken to the dealership for inspection.a remedy was not provided, because the technician could not duplicate the failure. The current and failure mileages were 18000.updated 02/02/10. *ljupdated 02/05/10.the consumer stated he is still having problems with the vehicle drifting and veering into other lanes.

We purchased a brand new 2010 toyota corolla less than a month ago from a texas dealer in north houston.immediately upon driving home we noticed a "meandering" of the front end, difficulty in keeping the car in its lane at high speeds.it felt like driving a car during a windy day.as it was a windy day we thought nothing of it.it behaved as you would expect at high speeds, on the freeway, on a windy day.the problem with the vehicle is that it needs constant correction to maintain a straight path while steering; constant small adjustments to keep it in its lane.the problem is exacerbated at high speeds as small adjustments seem to be amplified.and a small adjustment to the right for example, while the vehicle meanders to the right, creates an exaggerated movement to the right; kind of a doubling of the event.so if you are correcting movement to the left, by adjusting to the right, and the mechanical problem kicks in with more right movement, you get a big shift in the vehicle,the need to maintain attention to the steering is constant.your hands are always at the 10 o'clock, 2 o'clock position, and always making corrections to the front end meandering.at high speeds it is more problematic because the mechanical reactions get amplified at high speeds.at low speeds the problem exists, you still have to react, but you have more reaction time before the vehicle moves to an uncomfortable position within the lane.where this event is extremely dangerous is on two lane roads with high speed limits.two lane roads in texas can be narrow with small shoulders.when the vehicle meanders, you pull to the opposite direction.with oncoming traffic or narrow shoulders on the two lane highways, margin of error is much smaller than on city freeways and streets.
While driving my corolla, even i do not hit the gas pedal, the rpm stays around 2000 and sometimes it started to stuck around 3000 rpm for 15 to 30 seconds than goes to normal. I had difficulty to slow down in busy traffic, because even i hit the brakes it does not cut the gas so the engine still tries to run and the car still tends to go, so i am not able to slow down or it takes time to slow down. I am driving my toyota in the 5th gear and around 3000 rpm. When i need a sudden stop, i let go the gas pedal and hit the brake. The etcs commands high idle even i hit the breaks; the pistons are still working (the engine is still running in gear) with 3000 rpm so i am not able to slow down or stop. This is a serious safety problem. How come ecm would command for high idle from time to time? how can i stop the car or slow down in need while ecm is commanding high idle? it is impossible to have a proper control on the car when ecm commands high idle. Who can give me guarantee that it would not get stuck in higher idles? (because it used to stuck around 2000 rpm and right now it also started sticking around 3000 rpm). When i get close to a curb or to an exit i stop hitting the gas pedal assuming the car will get slow but since it sticks at high rpms the car does not get slower when it is in the gear.
I bought a toyota corolla 2010 le on 04/03/2010, and when i drove it on the freeway first time, i was shocked/scared the way was steering/handling. I almost had two accidents with it because of the steering issue. When i drove it on the freeway i saw that the car is loosing balance (the back car shakes), i found stability problems (as if i drive in strong winds), and big steering problems (as i learn to drive a tricky bicycle). To get and maintain an almost control on the car direction i have to focus my actions as my corolla has only two wheels like a bike. I almost act as an equilibrate for a rope dancing. The experience of driving my corolla showed that i have limited control over it, and most control i lost when i had to use sudden brakes at high speed - it was like on the ice. Back jumps and i stir in same direction; back jumps again in the other direction and i change the steering in the other direction too, and so on. These events occur almost every time i drove with speed around 60 miles/hour on the freeways that are not straight. The consequence is that i am afraid to drive my new car because i am not able to control it, and i risk an accident. I went to toyota dealer, they said that they know the situation from other customers too, but nothing they can do about it. Please investigate this issues until is not too late, and people make accidents and injure.thank you.
Just purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s on july 23, 2010. The steering did not seem right.at one week i went back to the dealer and they gave it an alignment, which did not really improve the steering.it is horrible on the highway and my arms hurt from trying to keep it in the lane.thought it was just me until i started to investigate, and found out all of the other complaints about the same problem.it make you feel like you do not have control of the car.it swerves from side to side. Tired putting more air in the tires, does not help. I have not even made my first payment yet. I have called corporate offices, and am awaiting a response from them. We need to start a class action suit.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla and stated while driving at any speed over 40 mph, the vehicle will drift from left to right. This would make it difficult for the driver to maintain control of the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer where they could not duplicate the failure. The dealer advised the vehicle was operating normally. The contact felt this was a major safety issue while traveling at high speeds. The failure and current mileages were under 200.
I owned a 2009 corolla and the accelerator surged in charlotte n.c, in march of 2010. I traded for a 2010 corolla, this car has as serious problems. I have spoken to my insurance agent twice last week, asking if he had any complaints about steering control. This car, at speeds of 45mph and up moves about the lane abruptly and is not easy to correct. It is really easy to overcorrect. The car feels as if there is lots of play in the steering and moves to the left or right. It is a constant ordeal to maintain control. Last week i pulled over alongside i85 in salisbury n.c. To gather myself. I believe this car warrants a recall. I'm reluctant to drive it, but it is the only car i have. Please investigate this further.
I made a left hand turn and was hit on the front passenger side. The force of the hit spun my car in a full circle, damaged the entire front of the frame, knocked off the front bumper, caused the trunk to open, and caused severe damage spanning the whole front end of the car including the driver's side door which i was unable to open. During this accident, the airbags did not deploy. The estimated cost for repair for my corolla was 13,000 dollars.
I would like to report a technical problem with toyota corolla le 2010,purchased on august 10, 2009 at a dealership: world toyota, 5800 peachtree industrial blvd, atlanta, ga, 30341, usa. The technical problem relates to electric power steering system which compromises stability of the car during driving. Namely, the car does not follow its track and spontaneously steers left or right. As a result of this constant pulling, the driver needs to firmly hold the steering wheel, but even then, it is impossible to control the car to keep it perfectly in track. The car feels even more unstable and pulls from side to side even more prominently when driving in full traffic on highway at a speed higher than 40 mph, such as atlanta, ga, where i live. I first noticed the problem when test driving the vehicle on august 10, 2009, but a sales representative at world toyota suggested that this was due to the electric steering and told me i needed to get used to it. Despite this problem, i still decided to buy the car. Because the car's instability on the road did not improve with time, i had this problem reviewed by toyota service technicians at the world toyota dealership during my 1000 mile maintenance check on september 18, 2009 and 5000 mile check on january 09, 2010. During 1000 mile maintenance check, i was suggested to drive the car until 5000 miles to see whether i would get used to it. During 5000 mile maintenance, i was given to test drive another toyota corolla le 2010 with a newer manufacture date and this car was more stable and held much better on the road. Toyota service technician tested my car as well and acknowledged the problem, however, did not know how to fix it. The alignment was checked on both dates, september 18, 2009 and january 09, 2010, with no identification of possible causes to pulling. At this point, toyota dealership is not doing anything to fix the problem.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that the vehicle had a defective steering and was unable to remain straight while the contact was driving. The failure recurred and the vehicle was taken to the dealer. The dealer diagnosed that the vehicle needed a re-tuned power steering computer assembly. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The vin was unavailable. The failure mileage was 15,000.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). I have a 2010 toyota corolla.i purchased it in july and realized fairly soon that there seems to be a problem with the steering.at first i thought it was just me because i have driven large suv's for the past 20 years and i thought it was just because it was a small car.my grown son used my car to go on a road trip and when he got home, he told me i had a serious problem with the steering.he said he could hardly keep it on the road.if you take your hands off the steering wheel for even a second, the car veers towards the ditch.it seems to mostly happen at higher speeds.i took it to the dealer and they said there is nothing wrong with the car.i decided to drive it for awhile as i felt comfortable because it has a full warranty.about two weeks ago, i was driving in the left lane on the interstate and my car abruptly veered into the right lane and i almost side swiped the car in the right lane.it was as if a huge blast of wind hit me from the left and shoved me into the right lane.it scared me and i was so close to being in a major accident.i brought the car back to toyota again this week and they tell me again....nothing wrong.the car is squirrelly and all over the road.i really feel there is a serious problem with the steering in this car and i do not know where to go from here.

My 2010 corolla has had a steering problem since its purchase. In 50 years of driving in over 25 new vehicles, it is the worst. It will not track properly at interstate speeds. It wanders randomly to the left or right. Not alignment and not wind caused. You must make small corrections every second or two to maintain a straight line. Passing other vehicles at highway speed is risky. This problem was first noticed on i-95 the day i took the car home. My wife did not notice it when she drives under 50mph; but is very evident at 65-75mph. It is very tiring to drive the car since you must remain totally focused with a firm grip on the steering wheel at all times since you must respond to the car's random veers to one or the other side. I have never had any vehicle do this before. I can see where an accident would be very possible at highway speeds when passing or traveling with other vehicles to your left or right. This is a problem that must be corrected, along with the accelerator problem. I had planned to complain to my toyota dealer in orangeburg, south carolina when i took my corolla in for the accelerator recall. I am very disappointed as i have owned toyotas before and, until this month, was planning to buy a 2011 toyota truck. The steering problem is real and needs to be investigated and corrected.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving at 60 mph, the steering became very hard and difficult to turn. He would have to pull on the steering wheel when the failure occurred to keep the vehicle centered in its lane. The steering wheel would not re-center itself when making a turn during the failure. The dealer advised they were unable to repair the vehicle because the steering box was electronic. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 285 and the current mileage was 3,270.
I bought a 2010 toyota corolla s on oct. 22, 2009. At bitterroot motors in missoula, montana. The day after i bought the car i drove it to ovando, montana, north of missoula, on a tryout road trip. I noticed that it was flighty on the road and seemed to waver without reason (no wind, no semi trucks, wind shear, rain, etc). Being a new car to me, i passed it off as the nature of a lighter and smaller vehicle than what i was accustomed to driving (my other vehicle is a 2004 ford f150). Since that time, i have continually experienced this with no external explanation (ie: weather, road conditions, etc). This problem seems to happen at speeds of 50 mph and over and it is a consistent issue. I commute regularly between stevensville, mt., and missoula, mt., for work (28 miles one way), and i often find that the car will drift left or right when i am at a steady speed. This is in addition to the fact that my vehicle is on the list of recalls for the recent accelerator issue. I need to add here that the second day after buying the car, i was getting fuel and as i turned from the pump to re-enter the car, "pop!!" and the driver side window totally shattered. I immediately called the dealer at bitterroot motors and drove it to their service dept to get it fixed. They replaced the window under warranty, and told me they suspected it was a preexisting stress fracture in the glass that finally gave. I bought this car based on safety ratings, consumer reports ratings, and to get better gas mileage on my necessary trips to and from work. It isn't hard to understand the stress of this situation, not to mention economic hardship. I paid for the car outright ($18,075) and it physically sickens me to think that such serious issues exist. I haven't even owned it 5 months! at this point i am fearful of even driving the car. If the world worked in good ways, toyota would replace this vehicle completely, and preferably with something other than another toyota.
I bought a new 2010 corolla le the fourth of april 2010; test drove it etc. Everything seemed to be just finei did a long trip to the niagara falls trip approx 1600 miles round trip. During the trip, i could tell something was wrong with the steering. I found that i had to focus on the road because the car would slowly change lanes. I though it was the wind or something else.i have to drive my car 80 miles every day it is a continuous battle when driving in the highway.i have had the car back to the dealership three times, one of the technical guys has laugh on my face and told me that i have to drive your car with two hands and focus one hundred percent on the road. That means you can open your windows, turn on the radio, etc. The dealership has already performed three alignments on the car and they could find anything and the car still has the same issue. Like the technical people on toyota say 'we can fix it if we can not find the problem'.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving at any speed, the steering was difficult. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealership where the vehicle was re-aligned but the failure continued. The vehicle was taken back to the dealership and the contact was informed that there was no problem with the vehicle and that it would take time to get used to driving it. The failure mileage was 0. The current mileage was approximately 2,400.updated 6/17/10 the consumer stated the vehicle would drift from side to side. Updated 07/15/10.
When i was driving my toyota corolla 2010 on 12/29/2011 at around 10.30 pm, suddenly i felt that the steering was so rigid to turn and noticed in the car dashboard warning indicator lights for abs, engine malfunction/check engine indicator, brake, vsc off, were illuminating. And the vehicle was totally stopped in the middle of the road. I was totally shocked!!!!!!!!!!! i tried again to start the vehicle but it failed.i towed the car to toyota dealer and they ran vehicle testand told me that throttle body assembly has to be replaced. When this incident happened the mileage of the vehicle was approximately 9020. I called and wrote to toyota usa regarding this issue but didn't get any reply even after 6 days!!!!!!!!!
Steering concern with 2010 toyota corolla;complaint consists primarily with the points;experienced of being buffeted via a strong wind would be an accurate description. Often correcting movement of the car, as if alignment is non-existent.dry steering noise & vibration on turning at speed of 10, 30, 40 max mph.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated his vehicle is havingsteering problems. He was driving 60mph when the vehicle became very hard to keep the vehicle on the road. The contact stated he took the vehicle to the dealer and they told him it was something with his steering. They adjusted his tire pressure and told him it should have been fine. The contact stated he is still having this issue.he also had a problem with the brakes, the contact stated that the vehicle is hard to stop at times. He is unsure if this is an acceleration problem, he feels as if it is his brakes. The failure mileage was 4,000 and the current mileage was 6,000.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact heard a loud abnormal noise coming from the steering wheel. The dealer stated that there was no remedy available for nhtsa campaign number: 14v168000 (air bags). The dealer did not provide a specific date for when the part would become available. The manufacturer was notified. The approximate failure mileage was 68,000.
As i was driving on hwy, i suddenly lost my power steering and i had power steering light, vsc and slippery car light cam on. From that point on i didn't have power steering, it was difficult to drive since it was hard to turn. Thank god that i didn't get involve in wreck. When i took it momentum toyota dealer in tulsa and explained what happened, service advisor said that since it has almost 45,000it is not covered under warranty. When i called to toyota customer service and express my safety concern, they said if it is concern thati need to get it fixed and pay out of pocket since it has about 45000 miles on it. I also informed them that it is well know issue on and there are alot of people having issue with power steering, he said i am sorry you vehicle is out side the warranty and we will not cover it.
The steering of the automobile becomes difficult at highway speeds.the car continually drifts to the right and left requiring constant adjustment. Free play in the steering wheel is excessive and the wheel is stiff and unresponsive. Windshield wiper speed is not fast enough to clear the windshield in downpours.
We have a new 2010 toyota corolla with about 9,000 miles on it. The steering on this car is "strange"making it unsafe-- it is difficult to keep it in a steady/smooth line when driving on the highway at 55 mph or greater -- you need to make constant minute corrective movements to the steering wheel.at times it seems to drift on it's own left and right - like it's being blown around by a gust of wind - but the wind isn't blowing!

2010 toyota corolla steering unstable to drive.
I have a toyota corolla 2010,i had it since june 2010, . I went through a major car accident on hw 1 ca @ 8:45 am on tuesday which was a sunny, clear , not foggy nor rainy day (weather condition was perfect),i was driving on 63 mph (normal speed is 65) on the fast left lane and suddenly i felt that the left front tire is veering the car into a different direction actingas if it below up (but it didn't) and my car is veering to the left , my steering wheel is lockedand is not responding at all when trying to change the car directionto the right. There was no way to drive the car in a straight line. The steering wheel failed completely to respond to any attempt to turn it to the right in an attempt to gain control over the car and attempting to drive itin straight line. Brakes as well were not responding. All attempts to stop the car or turn it to the right to avoid bumping the railsand keep it straight in the lane failed. I completely lost control over the car & it started fishtailing in the front. The car didn't stop until it bumped into the guarding rail, at this moment the car just stopped and it took the car more than 20 feed to automatically stop by it self. I failed to stop it.at this moment the car corrected its direction &went in straight line direction scrubbing against the rail completely damaging the entireleft side of the car before it stall. Then all the dash board lights and car sounds went on and the car stalled. The car was not in a drivable condition so i had to tow it away. I have a witnesswho described my accident saying that my car kept swerving to the left & was ambiguouslyuncontrolled, he was the one that took care of me after the car bumped the rail.this accident is alife threatening accident not only for me but also for others on the hw. I was lucky it happened on my way home after i dropped off my son to school ,the two car seats i had in the car were damaged,the car damage was estimated by $10,000. I suffer from a severe pain.
I just took my brand new 2010 corolla on the highway for the first time last weekend.it was as if wind was blowing the car back and forth.if you left the wheel in one place, the car would still veer as if you were slightly turning the wheel one way or the other (constant correction required).also, on the trip back i had a full car with 5 normal sized individuals.the car veering was much worse.it was as if the tires were very low also.just a feeling of not having control over the car.
2010 corolla le . This car can not be driven in a strait line on the highway ! it seems to constantly drift to the left and then to the right . Car has 2000 miles on it now but this problem has been a problem since day one .
I recentle purchased a new 2010 corolla. Like others, it seemed to drive fine on a test drive. The first time my wife drove it on the highway her arms were tired after 25 miles trying to keep it straight. I've since driven it many times in different conditions and it veers all over the road. I took it back and the dealer said it was within specs, but they tweeked it to the limit. It didn't help. Having to concentrate so hard on keeping this car in a straight line may keep a person from avoiding another type of hazard or dangerous situation. Dealer refuses to recognize a problem, however two employees (one salesman and one tech) told me they noticed the same thing on other corollas.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving 40 mph, the steering column vibrated constantly.the vehicle was taken to the dealer twice where they inspected the suspension and re balancing the tires but the vibration continued. The dealer stated they cannot find the problem to repair the vehicle. The manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 4 and the current mileage was 4,000.
Takata recall.........toyota has almost a year to fix this problem.please make it where my friends can ride in the front seat.this is ridiculous.i purchased this car because of toyota's safety rating march 2010, the next day there was a recall and it has gone down hill since.i paid cash money for my car and cannot afford to purchase another. If the airbags or any other safety recall is not fixed asap and something happens i or my heirs will own toyota!and takata! get busy!!!!!! nothing happened yet but does it have to?
Toyota corolla 2010 steering issue. Car does feel like it could go out of control.feels like a strong wind is blowing against the car. Mostly at a higher speed. Like when driving on the highway. I don't have vin number because i traded the car in. My wife always felt like she was getting car sick.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact received a recall notice for nhtsa campaign number: 14v168000 (steering) in june of 2019. The contact took the vehicle to ourisman fairfax toyota (10441 fairfax boulevard, fairfax, va 22030, (703) 359-1010) where it was determined that the recalled part needed to be replaced; however, the part was on backorder. There was no estimated date of delivery. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Steering wheel locked when i am backing up my car to do reverse parking. It happened only once. It stared working when i tried to move forward and came back to normal. I showed it to toyota authorized service center and they said they could not find anything wrong with steering.
Ongoing steering problem. At speeds above 30 mph the steering becomes overly sensitive causing the car to drift right and left and not track properly. Have to constantly adjust steering to stay in a straight line. No problem with vehicle alignment or tires. Just steering problem.
My 2010 toyota corolla pulls like the alignment is off but on both sides regardless of road grade. Gale toyota of enfield, ct were i bought the car first said it just needed to be broken in, then when they were fixing the acceleration recall i told them it's still there they said that's normal, finally they did the alignment and said its fine. Still had the same issue with no improvement. As i rite this, lynch toyota of manchester actually test drove it and confirmed that the car is almost un-drivable at highway speeds. Two hands are needed at all times over 40mph. I will see what they come up with when i return to pick the car up today. This problem is ongoing and constant regardless of the date of indecent entered.
After reading about the toyota corolla steering problems, i wanted to file a complaint of my own. I have noticed this problem of feeling like wind whipping my car around on the freeway almost daily since i leased my new 2010 corolla in november 2009. I always thought it was the way the los angeles area roads are paved but after reading other owners' similar complaints in the news, i am sure that this is what is causing me to feel like i have difficulty controlling my car at highway speeds.
2010 corolla s with electronic power steering (eps).vehicle is unstable at freeway speeds.wanders and drifts.needs to be "actively driven" in order to track straight.very tiring on long drives.does not instill confidence that vehicle could be controlled during an emergency swerve.
For corolla 2010 as you make turns, it makes a strange noise, for a brand new car that is very unusual.
Car does wander while holding steering wheel steady.it can go either to the left or to the right while going down the highway.i bought the car new on november 2 2009. I didn't pay much attention to the problem till a couple of weeks later after i bought the vehicle.i have not carried the vehicle back to dealer for the problem.
My son got in a crash this past saturday.his steering wheel completely locked up as he was turning coming out of an intersection and he crashed into a guard rail.we filed a police report and they confirmed he was in this single car crash with no other reason for the crash.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that there was a vibration coming from the steering wheel when he was driving approximately 40-50 mph. He noticed the problem whenever he drove the vehicle on a road with an uneven surface. He took the vehicle to the dealership and had a mechanic inspect and drive the vehicle to find the source of the problem. The tires were changed but the vibration was still present. The contact had not spoken with the manufacturer to-date. The current mileage was approximately 4,900. The failure mileage was approximately 1,500.updated 3/10/10 updated 06/18/10.
My car wanders when i drive on the highway, making it hard to stay in lanes.
2010 toyota corolla with 10,100 miles, steering suddenly pulls left or right randomly for some period of time, then stops just as suddenly. It occurs more so at faster speeds, but will also happen around 20-30 mph. Difficult to stay in lane as it drifts extremely easily. Tends to favor pulling right over left, but does both. Have to physically pull back to counteract pulling. Also very easy to overcorrect and look like you are swerving. Has been happening more and more often in the past few months. Car was originally purchased on may 24, 2009.
2010 toyota corolla has major issues with steering.changed tires and issues still persists.i can not control the car unless i always over correct the steering.hard to keep in lanes on the freeway.also brakes seems to be soft at times and not enough power to make an emergency stop.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that whenever he his drove the vehicle over 30 mph it began to drift from side to side in the lane without any assistance. The vehicle was uncontrollable but when driving it is was very subtle but noticeable since the contact was unable to keep the vehicle in the center of the lane. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer to diagnose the failure. The failure mileage was 560.
I purchased a 201 toyota corolla "s" and immediately after driving it off the lot, noticed that the steering wanders.i feel like this is a safety problem, because the car constantly wants to wander into the other lane of traffic.there has not been an accident yet, but i really feel that there will be!
Soon after purchasing, i noticed the car pulling to the right.steering was not as good as my old car.backing up from my garage is wobbly instead of straight back.after seeing others with similar complaints, i thought i should report my experience with my 2010 corolla purchased oct. 2, 2009.
I traded in my 2009 corolla le and purchased a 2010 corolla le two weeks ago. While driving this car at highway speeds, i am having a very difficult time keeping the car from wandering. It feels very much like i am driving in a strong cross wind although this occurs during all wind conditions. This car is exactly like the car i traded in except that my old car didn't have this steering issue. The dealer said that they are waiting to hear from toyota about a fix and that they were certain that they couldn't fix my problem at this time. I was told to inquire again when i bring my car in for it's 5,000 mile oil change. Hopefully i'll still be alive to complain at that time.
Steering problems with my new 2010 toyota corolla.the car seems to wander on the road while driving.
Bought new corolla 2010 for my wife about three months ago. I thought right from the first drive that its steering wheel was very sensitive, that is, even small motions of the steering wheel appear to get amplified to relatively larger directional changes on the moving car. However, my wife did not think so. Typically, however, she drives it at slow speeds, like, at most 40 mph, as she avoids highways. We have never driven it at higher speeds like 65-70 mph where i understand some other corollas start meandering. I don't know if it is the same problem i am describing above. But after having read about similar problems to 2010 corollas, which are recently so much in the news, i thought we should report it too.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving approximately 30 mph the vehicle suddenly began to erroneously veer into the left lane. The contact continued to drive but had difficulties keeping the vehicle in a straight line due to it constantly steering to the left. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to duplicated the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no solution was offered. The failure mileage was 40,000.
Have no control of steering the alignment is not correct and the tires are bald after rotation every 5000 miles. Dealer says the warranty does not cover these things after i paid for extra warranty up to 100,000 miles. Goodyear will not help with tires. Toyota dealer that car was bought from says they do not cover this under my warranty the car has not been wrecked or any other mishaps. I expressed my concern for the tires at 15,000 miles to ensure they were rotating when serviced and they assured me they were. The tires are bald and took to a tire dealer to express my concern they said they car was out of alignment in the front. The dealer then told me they were not responsible for this. I guess my question is shouldnt their technician been able to see there was an issue with the front end alignment when rotating the tires and notified me of this problem? also the steering is off it feels like i am hydroplaining all the time and that it is windy all the time. I have no control of the car over 55mph.
While driving on the interstate in speeds in excess of 75 miles an hour, my 2010 corolla shakes violently in all conditions. I also have an issue when slowing down where the gas pedal will take longer than what is expected to return to an acceptable area and stop accelerating. This second issue has nearly caused several accidents. I have brought this up to the dealer where i purchased this vehicle some three months ago and was told a solution is not readily available and i will be contacted when one is. Both problems have convinced me to carpool to work until a solution is identified.
I've been driving this vehicle now for almost 5 yrs. Since the day i got into it, the thing walks the highway (40 mph+) continually. On a trip over two hours, you start to get exhausted from the continuous weaving back and forth, like a side wind keeps alternating from left to right to left to right ect... Alignments, new tires, ect changes nothing... Something is definitely wrong with either the design of the front end, or the steering. I just want to add my name to the complaints, before this problem is actually proven to be faulty and kills multiple victims. After 70k, tired of a vehicle which wears on one's nerves...
Problems with our toyota corollasteering does not feel rightbrakes are not rightaccerator pedal recalli have calledtoyota and i get no reseults from my problems. My wife does'nt feel safe driving this car. I want toyota to take this car back.they have told us no way.car has only 6,000miles on it.
I have 2010 toyota corolla (vin# [xxx] ) purchased on oct 31 2009 from sansoneautomall, nj. There is a problem with the steering column initially which started with some unique sound, then from feb 2010 i was seriously facing steering freeze (will get harden) only 15-20% of steering moves when in 0' speed, for this i have visited my dealer service center 3 times but there is no use. Only with lot of disappointment and arguments saying "what is the reason to buy a brand new car to get problems" i was requesting to solve my problem. They simply said, there is nothing we can do if you have no other mean to commute its upto you and if you want you call toyota head quarters for this. I even spent lot of time in calling main toyota nr but simply i get voice message that "there is huge volume of call waiting please wait". I really wonder when i/anyone buy a car from dealer and if they cannot receive me assist me properly "where from i get the justice????". Recently i found two more new problems they are: in a slope road car picks-up acceleration and maintains speed as if it is cruised and once i apply break after a while the speed comes to normal position other prob- fuel indicator stuck up to full level indi' even the fuel is low. With this i'm day by day getting depressed as i spent quite lot of savings (money) on the car to avoid any hassles buying a used car, but unfortunately its a disaster to me. I request to provide me needed solution to fix my depressing situation.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

Purchases new corolla on 12/26/09.upon driving 18 miles to my home on the freeway, i found it hard to steer the car.it felt like i was driving on ice or hydroplaning.what a scary feeling.i called my salesman, he said bring it in, but i had to get home to care for my 85 yr old mother who has dementia.i have taken it in once.the alignment was off only in the toe and adjusted as were the over-inflated tires of 37 lbs each, adjusted to 34 lbs. The accelerator pedal was replace though i had no problems.the steering is still very sensitive having to pull the car on a straight path as it tends to veer to the left or the right.my master repair mechanic and i went on a drive today, 02/18/10.he said that the rear wheels were not aligning with the steering.felt as though you were sitting sideways and trying to drive.i will have an appt on monday, 02/22/10 again with folsom toyota, lets see what we can do???cars keep at a distance away from me as i constantly have to steer the car correctly within the lane???ps this is my 4th new toyota, never drove one that felt this scary!
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla le. While sitting idlein the parking position, the vehicle momentarily lunged forward. While traveling at various speeds as low as 50 mph, the vehicle would veer to the right. Also, the keyless remote, which also acts as a vehicle locator, would only operate intermittently. Often, the vehicle locator alarm would go off on without driver input. The dealer advised changing the batteries in the keyless remote. That did not correct the failure. The dealer then attempted to reprogram the keyless alarm sensor and advised the locator could only be used for short-range locating. No further repairs were performed on the vehicle. The failure and current mileages were approximately 6,300. The consumer stated the brakes did not perform as designed. Updated 07/19/10
2010 toyota corolla "s" purchased by my wife in july 2009, with automatic transmission .she drives the car only locally on suburban streets, at speeds less than 45 mph, and has placed less than 3000 miles on the car in 7 months.recently we took the car for a 'road trip' of about 175 miles each way, with me driving. This car does not "steer" properly on the highway, if "proper" means that it follows the drivers input and control movements.at low speeds it seems that the steering wheel moves easily like most cars with power steering, and the car follows the steering wheel movements fairly well.but at speeds over 50 mph the steering wheel seems to "lock" into a position and resists being moved to either side until excessive force is applied, several pounds of force i would say, then the steering wheel jumps to a new position and the car takes off to that side, requiring another hard pull on the steering wheel to try to go back toward center.i had to fight this car for three hours each way on the highway, and the slightest inattention was likely to result in the car heading for one edge or the other of the lane, since it seems to periodically just "drift" off path for no apparent reason-- no change in road slope or geometry, but the car would start moving toward one side of the other. (tire pressures were checked before the trip).our family has owned 6 toyotas before this one, and none of them has ever had the lack of response and "wandering" problems of this car.we still own a 1992 celica, which is a corolla in a sporty body style, and it "tracks" beautifully to the drivers control, with over 200,000 miles on it.i think that if a car had a steering system with apparent looseness in it that would duplicate the side directions of this corolla, while the steering wheel is not being moved from straight ahead, that car would not pass its annual safety test in this state.this car requires a constant struggle to keep it in its lane at highway speeds.
I purchased a brand new 2010 corolla at toyota city, mamaroneck, ny on 8/31/09. I felt vibration in the steering mechanism, a strange feeling in the brakes,heard a noise in steering wheel, and a strange feeling in the way the car rode immediately when turning and brought the car back to the dealership on 10/5/09. I did not bring it back right away due to time constraints, and i felt maybe i needed to get used to the car. I had a 2003 corolla before, and this car felt completely different in its ride. Not as tight a ride. On 10/5/09 the car was in the shop all day and they found it had warped rotors and needed new brakes. They told me the car's brakes maybe had gotten wet sitting in the rain, which caused the problem. I felt that was very odd on a brand new car, and with its predelivery inspecting this was missed. They covered the repair. I drove the car again and brought it back on 10/19/09. There was still the same problem, with a vibration in the steering wheel. This time they balanced the tires. Again, not clear why they did not do this before. I still heard a noise in the steering wheel and felt the car did not have a tight driving feel. They told me to live with the steering wheel problem. It was how the power assist system worked in the steering wheel.the steering feels completely different from my 2003 toyota corolla. I have felt the brakes do not respond well, and pulsate on engagement, and i feel the car still moves forward, when trying to stop. On 1/23/10 i hit a deer. I live in an area where there a lot of deer and for 18 years have been able to stop and never hit one. Not sure what went wrong here. On 2/5/10, green tree toyota in danbury, ct test drove my car for the brakes. Said they were fine. I feel i do not have control of this vehicle like i did with other toyotas and feel there is something very wrong with the brakes and steering.
2010 toyota corolla, i have a problem with the power steering system. The vehicle is all over the roll at high speed.
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s on 11-7-2009.on the test drive i complained to the salesman that the steering felt strange.it seemed to have a center spot and then any left or right turn would cause a minor pull either direction as if the steering turned on.the salesman said it was the electric steering on all the new cars.that was a slow speed test drive.after the purchase i got on the interstate and was shocked to feel the steering feel as if i were going around a semi tractor trailer rig and being pushed around by the wind, but yet i was not near a vehicle.it seemed like loose steering or tire squirm.when i got back from my trip i took it to the local toyota service center and asked if there is an adjustment on the power steering or if there is an issue with the tires.to both questions my service advisor said no.on another trip on the interstate, it all of a sudden started acting like it was going to fish tail swinging back and forth, like i was ridding on balloon tires, or without sidewalls.i quickly slowed down.in cross winds or going around a semi it is worse.at my 5,000 service, i asked if there are any steering or tire issues, and my advisor still said no, but part of the service was to rotate the tires, and this has seemed to lessen the squirm.i now have 7,000 miles on my 2010 toyota corolla s.
2010 toyota corolla s purchased in december 2009.i reported to toyota the fact that my car's steering seems to wander all over on the post-purchase survey sent to me. It happens daily on my work commute of 35 miles one way.nothing has been done, there has been no contact.

Toyota corolla 2010 steering unstable to drive specially freeway driving. Every time you drive it feels like it want to go left or right. Went to back to dealership and try if they can fix the problem. They said nothings wrong with the car it is just a light car. I told them i used to drive a small toyota yaris and it is much more stable to drive than the corolla i just bought. Please do help me! the car is brand new. I'm starting to loose my trust with toyota.
After starting the engine and driving approximately 100 feet, the dashboard lights: abs, anti skid symbol, battery and oil lamp appeared.lost power steering, windshield wipers ceased, it was raining heavily.drove approximately 6 miles to home.the next morning, car started without any issues, drove approximately 100 feet, the same lights appeared and power steering again ceased.able to drive approximately 5 miles to work.made an appointment with dealership for after work.car immediately started with the above mentioned lights appearing again and without power steering.drove approximately 2 miles, all power in car stopped, and car immediately stopped.was unable to restart car, car was towed to dealership, where the service member stated the car needed a new alternator. When asked why this would occur with only 25000 miles, the service department was unable to give me a response. The alternator was costly.i am the original owner, purchased this car in july, 2009.service my car regularly as suggested in manual at a toyota dealership.i am disappointed with needing such a costly repair as i have never experienced this in the past with other makes of cars.all of which i have owned for 8 to 10 years each.
I have one of the notorious toyota corolla. The gas pedal has be fixed-maybe but i now notice an extremely touchy steering. It seems to turn ok but on the straight away you have to keep both hands on the wheel tightly it jerks from right to left always! the faster you go the more pronounced. I used to live in phila and remember what it felt like driving on ice this is quite similar. Very difficult to keep in your own lane.you guys need to look into this. I called the toyota dealership i bought this mess from and asked to come in and have them look at it. We'll see.
When vehicle is on reverse while parking and turning the wheel all to the right,the wheel tends to lock and resistant occurs.it can happend while in motion or stationary.
2010 toyota corolla le. Steering issues as noted by others - going straight/staying in lane,pulls to either left or right and wanders, floats, feels like a wind gust hitting the car etc. At various speeds although it is more noticeable at speeds above 40mph. This causes an unstable feeling and need for driver to correct. Car was purchased on 3/31 and i have not taken it back to the dealer at this time. Making arrangements to do so. Car has less than 400 miles.have experienced this from the time of purchase.
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)[xxx]may 21, 2010heritage toyotashelburne rd.dear heritage toyota,i am returning the toyota corolla i purchased from you less than 30 days ago.i expect a full refund as provided by state and federal statutes.i find it unsafe to drive. The vehicle does not track straight. It too readily redirects itself from a straight path, drifting alternately from to right or left. My driving time is spent intensely concentrating on correcting the right and left adjustment the vehicle has made on its own. It feels like i am driving on rails that i do not have control over or that i am driving on the crest of a severely crowned road and that i must constantly redirect the vehicle back uphill to the top pf the crown.. The steering does not have a sweet neutral spot; it is as if the vehicle is always trying to turn and it my job to correct its turning. This happens on all roads and at all speeds. It happens both when i am holding onto the steering wheel and concentrating on correcting, and also when i relax my grip from the wheel and let the car 'track' on its own. There is no time i am not working to keep the car on the road. In addition to the typical/usual task (the joy of driving) of steering to keep the car on the road, i am forced to also steer to compensate for the random turns the vehicle makes on it own. I thought the steering would 'wear-in' but i think it is getting worse.the last straw happened yesterday (while i was out of town), when my wife drove it for the first time, she called me to ask me, 'what i had done to the steering, because she had difficulty keeping the car on the road.'note: i drove my old car on this trip to boston because the 2010 corolla is too tiring and thus unsafe to drive long distance.[xxx]
Electric steering stopped working and all warning lights lit up. I shut off the car and restarted and returned home. Car is in the driveway since.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that his vehicle has been experiencing recurring brake and steering failures. Repeated pressure would have to be applied to the brake pedal in order to stop the vehicle. The contact also stated that while driving at unknown highway speeds, the vehicle would drift from left to right. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer but the failure was not duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 200 and the current mileage was 7,020.
While driving at a speed of over 50mph the vehicle starts to drift and constant steering input is required to keep the vehicle in the correct lane. It was only when the speed was reduced did i feel that i had regained enough control over the vehicle to steer it right.
I purchased my toyota corolla le 2010 in august 2009. We found the steering wheel was not aligned properly and the vehicle sometimes skipped/shifted on freeway. We reported this to toyota before their massive recall. We took it to sterling mccall toyota in houston several times and they insisted there was no alignment problem, even a third-party mechanics inspected the vehicle and identified there was alignment problem. The steering wheel has to be placed slanted to the left side in order for the vehicle to go straight. It was so obvious that anyone you can notice it. The car dealer and the toyota us headquarter told us there was nothing they could do. This has be a security concern and we have been trying to resolve the issue with toyota but has failed to. I urge nhtsa to investigate this matter to ensure consumer safety.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla.the contact stated that while driving on the interstate, he noticethat the metric power steering did not function properly. The vehicle seemed to lunge forward and the contact had to correct the steering wheel so it would move out of the lane.the dealer told him that it was normal for the vehicle to respond in that way.he had not spoken with the manufacturer to date. The vehicle had not been repaired when the complaint was filed.the current and failure mileages were approximately 120.
Correction and addition to my 1st complaint. Yesterday i had to drive my husband home from the hospital and unfortunately i had to get on the hwy. The car road home was more worrisome than his surgery! the eps in the 2010 corolla is just as dangerous as the other corolla i had before it. Its blowing all over the road, taking me into other lanes, i almost hit other cars on the hwy, my husband got all distressed in the car and begged me to get him home so he could get out of my car which he now has dubbed a death trap. The car basically veers in and out of the lane your in. Its like trying to drive in the road ruts only there wasn't any because our stretch of hwy had just been paved with black tar and all was flat and nice on the road surface but the car still took me all over and im not alone when i scream to you please im begging you to come to my house and drive my car!!!!! i can guarantee you will recall this model as well!!! this is dangerous!!! no person should have to get see to there car blowing around like a kite in the sky. Im begging you please come drive my car!!! this is dangerous and i feel like im going to die in this car.
2010 toyota corolla, steering problems.car feels like it is out of alignment when traveling at highway speeds and veers sharply when braking, at any speed, or if car goes over a bump in the road, at any speed.intermittent rattling noise coming from steering column.have taken car to dealership 6 times but am told they cannot duplicate the problem.problem is continuous.. Also intermittent rattling noise coming from front drivers wheel area when traveling on rough roads and when braking.toyota dealership also cannot duplicate the problem.steering problems began as soon as i purchased the car and have continued ever since.underbody rattle began jan 1, 2010 and is intermittent.car does not feel safe when driving at highway speeds..

The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving 25 mph the power steering was pulling to the left and there was also a noise in the steering as well. The vehicle as taken to the dealer who stated they could not diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 5,000 and the current mileage was 28,000.
When i took my vehicle to the dealer for it's 3 month checkup, i informed them that i was having issues with the brakes and the steering.i told them that the car feels like it is out of alignment because when driving over 45mph the car pulls to one side and it is difficult to keep in a single lane on the highway.when i described the braking issues with the car, they told me that "the brakes are different than what i have been used to with other vehicles.the brakes don't seem to engage until the pedal is at the floor board.when they were ready to turn the car back over to me they told me that they did an alignment on the car and that they adjusted the rear brakes and bled the lines.i noticed that when they "test drove" the car they only went 3 miles.that distance, in the part of town where the dealer is located doesn't even get the car up to 40 mph.the original complaint of the car drifting is still there.now the brakes hop and chatter when you press on the brake pedal at speeds of appx 45 mph, and when at a complete stop the car tends to creep forward even though the brakes are fully engaged.i bought this vehicle solely on the toyota reputation, and now i am sorry that i did.i bought this vehicle on november 2,2009 and am still waiting to hear anything from toyota regarding the accelerator pedal recall/repair.i should have gone with my first instinct and bought the dodge instead of the toyota.
The steering in my 2010 toyota corolla "s"is hard to control and, i feel unsafe, at highway speeds.the car wanders all over the road, requiring constant correction.however, often minor corrections fail to have any effect, and major corrections result in overcorrection, often making the car leave the lane.toyota claims this is just the nature of its "electric" steering.i disagree.i no longer drive my car (brand new, mind you... Fewer than 2,000 miles) on the highway.the problem isn't present at city speeds.
I have a 2010 corolla 4 dr le model, which i bought in july 2009.i continue to notice that the car "wanders" on the road while driving; generally it is really noticeable about 50 mph.when there are windy conditions (frequent in kansas), i have to constantly correct my direction of travel since the wind exacerbates the wandering of the vehicle.i thought that it was due to the crown of the particular road, but it does it on all roads.my wife has driven the car and noticed the same thing.i have not lost control of the vehicle, but it concerns me that a car would not drive in a reasonable straight line.this is the very first car i've ever owned that did it; it is not the first toyota i've ever owned, and have never ever had such a problem.i cannot give a specific date of incident, as it does it all the time, so i will indicate the delivery date ofthe vehicle to me.
I also have a new 2010 corolla bought in lexington ky three weeks ago. 3 days before the recall on the acceleration pedals were announced. I have yet to hear from the dealer about fixing the issue. Although today i wanted to report a steering issue with the car. It does indeed have difficulty staying in a lane of traffic. The car will veer to the left or right of the lane unexpectedly and without warning. It is similar to a gust of wind pushing the car even if no wind is blowing. I had taken it to the dealership for testing and the service guy told me it's just how the steering is made in these autos.it is a way for the powerful control you have going around curves and turns in the road impacts the straight highway driving.i have run off the road on my passenger side already. You do have to drive as if you are always on ice or water, gripping both hands on the wheel at all times; while praying the car will stop!!!
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. One week after the vehicle was purchased, the vehicle began to exhibit steering failures. When driving at higher speeds, the steering wheel would constantly move back and forth without driver intent. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where they attempted to align the steering wheel but to no avail. The vehicle was diagnosed by the dealer on two occasions for the same failure. The dealer advised the contact that the vehicle may have been designed to operate in that manner. There were no recalls for the failure.the failure mileage was 982 and the current was 6,220. Updated 05/06/10. *ljthe consumer stated the vehicle was very unstable. Especially when driving on the highway at higher speeds. The dealer performed two alignments, but it did not resolve the issue. Updated 07/16/10.
Since i bought it in october my 2010 toyota corolla base model has been extremely difficult to keep on the road i go over fifty and it feels like a big wind in constantly trying to push me off the road, i pay alot of money for this car and i don't trust it at all, when i stop or attempt to it makes a loud almost abs type sound very often and the brakes are extremely touchy and i feel this car is just a unsafe device what's next these cars are junk and poorly made.
I leased a 2010 toyota corolla le on 4-2-2010.the first time driving on the highway was very scary.i could not keep the car going straight.it felt like a strong crosswind constantly blowing the car around.i have an appointment at the dealer on 4-19-10.

Steering hard turn hard moving to speed 55 miles hour
Car requires excessive steering corrections at highway speed. I have driven many cars in my life. This brand new 2010 corolla wanders left and right while driving at highway speed. I have to hold the steering wheel very very tight and be continuously correcting the steering.dealer services says this is normal but there is nothing normal about this!
Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)toyota corolla 2010 steering is dangerous above 40 mph, the car won't stay in it's lane and is almost impossible to keep the car straight down the road without constant counter steering.interstate speeds requires nerves of steel and i do not recommend it to even the best driver.this car is dangerous and the local dealer says everything is fine.i refuse to drive this car over 65 mph, even on the interstate, very tiring and stressful to travel in this car (at speed).this car has handled like this since new..no corrective action (fix) from the dealer as of 3-8-2010 [xxx]

The electric power steering in my 2010 toyota corolla is very erratic and unstable at speeds of 40 mph and above. It becomes much worse when the wind is blowing. I have had a toyota dealer inspect the vehicle and they claimed that they found nothing wrong. I leased the vehicle in december 2009 and the problem has never gone away. Yesterday, i reported the problem to the toyota customer experience center. They told me to check the tire air pressure (which i do at least monthly), check the shocks absorbers (which i can not do), and then have another toyota dealer inspect the car again.
I was just reading this article on msnbc about 2010 corollas (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/35314540/ns/business-autos/) and yes!i have had this happen to me as well.the car veers to the left and right, and does make it difficult to stay in the lane.it doesn't occur all the time however.i haven't noticed if it only occurs going over a certain speed, or how to reproduce on a consistent basis.all i know, is that it is most definitely a problem!

2010 toyota corolla steering problem.car wanders on highway hard to hold in lane due to electric power steering.
I was driving at approx. 65 mph and due to an off-center feeling and a lax steering wheel, lost control of my vehicle. Under no fault of my own i subsequently crashed into a guard rail, spun across lanes of traffic, and did not have any airbags deploy despite losing my front bumper, front bumper support beam, radiator, fans, headlight, had my door pinned in, hood crushed, and missing my passenger headlight. The vehicle was not totaled since no frame damage was done and none of the airbags deployed.

Purchased a 2010 toyota corolla le at the end of december 2009...in addition to the floor mat recall (official recall notice, for same, finally received from toyota corp. In today's mail)& the unintended acceleration problem (already had part retrofitted to gas pedal; even though toyota never sent a recall notice)...an ongoing problem still exists with the automatic steering: when driving at a high rate of speed, having to "wrestle" with the steering wheel in order to keep the car within the lane; constant movement / veering of vehicle because of unusual / unacceptable steering wheel vibration.stressful driving due to having to grip the wheel which is in constant motion; fearful of losing control of the automobile while traveling at 65+ mph in highway traffic.have contacted dealership, on 2 separate occasions thus far, to find out if they can rectify this issue. Being told that toyota headquarters has not sent a repair recommendation to their dealers & the service depts, currently, do not know how to repair the problem.i'm fully aware that toyota issued a press release stating that they are "investigating" this problem; unfortunately, just not fast enough.requesting that nhtsa require a deadline date for toyota to come up with a "fix" for the automatic steering problem(s) evident in this model vehicle & a recall be issued for same.it is an extremely hazardous condition & could cause catastrophic accidents, if it hasn't already.
I bought a 2010 toyota corollafor my away-from-home college-student daughter.we were aware of the floormat problem when we bought the car and took delivery on october 28, 2009.the accelerator issue became known in january, 2010.the power steering issue just became public this week.i drove the car for two weeks after taking delivery to check it out for any manufacturing defects and to break it in.i did not notice any unusual behaviors for any of these problems while driving around town during this break-in period.however, i did notice when i was on the interstate while delivering the car to my daughter that the electrically-assisted power steering had an unusual vagueness to it.the car felt like it was being buffeted by high wind or turbulence from following a tractor-trailer too closely, even though the wind was calm and there were no trucks within one mile of me.as i made very minor course corrections as the road curved or to change lanes, it felt like the steering was being over-boosted, which caused a bigger path correction than intended or expected.then i got a similar reaction in the opposite direction when i tried to correct the over-correction.i think it would be fair to say that the steering wheel felt as if it was connected to the front wheels with a rope.the car has goodyear eagle rs-a tires; i have had several sets of these tires of different sizes in the past, and don't believe they are a problem.i have driven other vehicles with electrically-boosted power steering and and i don't recall such behavior.indeed, i have a class b cdl to drive motorcoaches and the older ones with over 1/2 million miles on them have more direct steering.this situation has not caused an accident; i just want to weigh in on the potential problem.i have offered my daughter another car to drive, but she insists on driving the corolla.
I just bought a new 2010 toyota corolla.upon taking it up to highway speed the first time i noted a "drifting" in the steering that seemed unusual (car rides fine for a while then drifts right or left causing you to over steer it back).i drove it for the rest of the day and the next day and am certain that something is wrong with the steering.the dealer said it is the new electronic power steering but it sure seems unsteady.something is wrong and these cars should be recalled.
Original filing:odi#10317281on dec 12, 2009 as ..."at speeds over 50 mph the steering wheel seems to "lock" into a position and resists being moved to either side until excessive force is applied, several pounds of force i would say, then the steering wheel jumps to a new position and the car takes off to that side, requiring another hard pull on the steering wheel to try to go back toward center. I had to fight this car for three hours each way on the highway, and the slightest inattention was likely to result in the car heading for one edge or the other of the lane, since it seems to periodically just "drift" off path for no apparent reason-- no change in road slope or geometry, but the car would start moving toward one side of the other. (tire pressures were checked before the trip). .......resolution:after 19 months of avoiding using the car for highway driving, we took the 2010 corolla sto dealer where it was purchased, with 7600 miles on it on march 17, 2011 and requested them to check for service bulletins related to the continuing problems with steering control(or lack of it!) and they replaced the steering ecu under toyota service bulletin 0140-10r1 with a new ecu (toyota part #89650-12c20 ) this work was done under warranty, no charges.no other changes to tire pressure or alignment were done, but the results are amazing!the car actually handles and responds to the steering wheel like you would expect, and is easy to steer accurately within the lane at speeds up to 70mph (local speed limit) and does not require constant fighting with the steering wheel to try to correct vehicle direction. Much much better! i wish that we had found out about this service bulletin last year, since it was issued by toyota back in aug. 2010, but it seems they don't advise anyone of this tsb, and only perform this replacement if the owner makes a specific complaint,after the aug.2010 date.thanks to odi for your help.
I recently purchased a 2010 toyota corolla xle.i have noticed at highway speeds the vehicle is impossible to steer normally.apparently the electric power steering is oversensitive or something because you cannot keep the car going straight with normal steering input.if a highway patrol officer were to follow this car for any distance, he would think the driver was impaired.i have owned toyota vehicles for 20 years and have been very satisfied, but this is unacceptable and potentially dangerous.
I was going to work when my brakes stopped working, steering wheel locked, and car accelerated straight into a fence. Both my mother and i were injured. I got a toyota specialist to look at the car, it took them three and a half weeks after the accident to send that specialist to look at the car. He then said the car was safe to drive. After i got my car back from the body shop i took the car to the toyota dealership where i got it to get the brakes fixed and the accelerator pedal fixed. I have gone twice already and my brakes still aint fixed and giving me problem.
I have a 2010 corolla and had steering difficulties. At hitting highway speeds, it would feel like the wind was blowing my car into the other lane, yet the wind was not blowing. On 4-25-2010, my car jerked right while going 43, causing me to hit a ditch, go airborne, hit a telephone pole, do a 360 and land back on it's wheels. My car is now not drivable and not repairable. Before the accident i thought it was the wind blowing my car, but moments after the wreck i knew it was something more. Seeing others having the same problem, i now know what happened.
At approx 1730lt today 10/19/2017 car driven from work parkedinthe drive way no problemat approx 1745 lt started car to leave drivewayand no power steering....unable to drive car.will contact dealer toyota of west kendall as this seems to be another ongoing problem with the corolla
The vehicle pulls, you have to continually correct the steering to stay in the lane. More noticeable the faster the speed. A long drive makes my knuckles turn white and my shoulders hurt. At first i thought it was the wind, but the more i drive it the more noticeable it is.
We have purchased new 2010 toyota corolla s model in november 2009.we noticed wiggling and unstable feel in steering wheel.we thought since we had other luxury car before, we are just not use to driving a cheaper car.but as times go by, it is going out of its driving lane uncontrollably.we really have to hold on to the steering wheel tight to keep it straight.
Loose steering, and bouncy suspension.
We had a corolla 2010. My wife said she had some difficulty to turn to the left and switch to the left lane on the highway.
I brought a new toyota corolla 2010 in mid january, and have experienced a possible steering problem for a couple of times when the speed was more than 60 mph.the latest one was in the afternoon of feb. 26, when i drove on a highway with a speed of about 65 mph.it seemed the steering was very sensitive and difficult to control - a small movement in steering could easily cause the car to go to another lane.the situation became more apparent when the wind was strong - i felt the car was not stable at all.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 65 mph, the steering wheel was difficult to control; the contact had to grip it with both hands.

The electric power steering on my new 2010 toyota corolla makes the car very difficult, stressful and unsafe to drive. At highway speeds above 65 mph any slight hand movement on the steering wheel causes the car to veer sometimes sharply making it very difficult to keep the car inside your lane. It steers jerky like a go cart and doesn't return to center.i've taken it back three times and toyota said that i'd have to get used to it.they finally realigned the front end, phase balanced the tires, and centered the steering wheel, but that did not correct the problem.the dealership acted like they didn't know there wasproblem and that i was the only one who had complained,said i should file a complaint with toyota, but i haven't done that yet.
Steering problems- took the car to dealer where it stayed for 3 days only to be told there was no problem. When i picked up the car it had only been driven 2 miles?the problem recurred and again was told there were no problems. I informed the dealer the car was unsafe to drive and would be leaving it until it was fixed or they could keep it. Dealer informed me if a recall occurred they would fix the car but for now there was nothing wrong with the car? makes since to me! will it take more deaths to stop an out of control auto maker??????????? please help!!!!!!!!!!!!
Feb. 14 2010, i bought new toyota corolla 2010. I didn't test this car( i trusted the quality of toyota), and than i drove it home. On the way, i felt something wrong about the steering wheel. When i was driving, the steering wheel is very difficult to be contral. Pull right or left side a little, steering wheel canot turn back. When i am driving, i have to use two hands hold tthe steering wheel all the time, i feel very heavy, uncomfortable, danger, tired. I test this car on the highway, it can't go straight evenin 2 seconds!! feb. 15 2010, my wife brought this car to dealer, they told my wife can't return it, but can change it next day. I thought only this car no good, so i agreed to change it. Feb. 16 2010, my wife and me went to the dealer and changed another car. I tested itand felt better than the first one. But after 2 days, the same problem coming, right now i can't return it. I call the dealer they told me all the same, that is not problem!!!. I am not professor to car, i am just buyer. I feel this steering wheel of toyota 2010 corolla very bad and driving danger.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla, which my 19 year old daughter drives, which is involved in the gas pedal recall.she also describes an steering problem -- difficulty keeping the car from veering, has to hold steering wheel tight to keep it straight, describes it like car is sliding on ice.when i asked our toyota dealer service dept advisor about it he said to check the tire inflation.i now see that this is a complaint from others. I am concerned that this car is not safe for her to drive!she drives it to and from college on interstate 95 and says this problem occurs at all speeds, especially 45 and over.

We have a 2010 toyota corolla with steering problem. Car wanders from left to right at high speed over 50 mph. No accidents, but scary to get on freeway.
Power steering goes out while operating the car then come back
Bought brand new 2010 toyota corolla in may 2009. When driving on freeway feels like car will change lane automatically. Also feels like driving car in the windy condition. When you leave the steering wheel, i think car is suppose to go straight, but car pulls either on right or left side.
I have been taking my corolla to the dealership almost every week since 01/28/2010 and every week i complained about how the car was drifting side to side and how on low windy days i have to fight the steering wheel to keep it in its lane at speeds above 65mph. And every time i take it over there they say "well the car is working to factory standards" and they will send me on my way. I have had my brakes bled and my car alignment done twice and the car only has 2000+ miles on it. So i took the car back to the dealership from where i bought it and they gave me thiscust states vehicle is all over the road at highway speeds like the computer is driving the car on its own ~|~performed health check on all systems. No trouble codes stored. Test drove vehicle on 10 mile trip and ~|~vehicle performed as designed at this time. Please direct customer to toyota at 1-800-331-4331 if they have any other questions. So i took the car back and called the # to them and they said since the tech could not find the problem then there is no problem. Bull. So on 03/01/2010 i took my car back in to the dealership to have someone go on a drive with me and i made sure it was a windy day so they can see how hard it is to keep the car centered in its lane. The mechanic that went with me said oh i see what you are talking about he even had a hard time keeping the car from wondering off. So he said well it could be the tires are not to the right pounds. I said nope i had the air done to factory standards of 35psi all around. So he said he will need the car for over a day and scheduled appt for me to come in i took it back on 03/03/2010 and haven't had my car back since then. They still have my car in the shop as i type. So there is definitely a problem with the car. I feel like i can hurt or even kill someone in the car because of it. I have had more problems with this car and its not even 60 days old yet. Plus i already had the recall done on it too.

2010 toyota corolla - the car has poor steering. It drifts all over the highway. Requires constant correction like i am driving in heavy winds. I brought it into a toyota dealer and they claim there is nothing wrong with it. They say i need to get used to elctronic assisted steering. I have been driving it for four months now, and i cannot "get used to it".
At highway speeds, car steers as if reacting to gusting wind from either side.steering very sensitive when attempting to correct.this has occurred since i purchased the vehicle new with 11 miles on it.

My daughter was driving her new corolla (2010) home from college in december 2009.when she got home she was extremely upset and told me that she had encountered a steering problem with the car on her way home -- she couldn't keep the car centered on the highway as the car kept moving to the left and right.about two weeks later (december 2009) i was driving the car at about 65 mph down the highway and could not keep the car on center.it felt like i was caught in a terrible crosswind, moving me from left to right as i tried to stay on center.i ended up having to keep both hands on the steering wheel just to maintain control of the car.it was the same problem my daughter had experienced.in my 30 years of driving i have never had an experience like that before.it does not appear to be a problem at lower speeds just highway speeds and, to date, this problem has only happened those two times.
I'm also making a followup to my original complaint #10302584. These corolla's have a serious built in problem! you (odi) started an investigation in feb. Stating 168 complaints on the steering in 09 and 10 corollas, there are now almost 500!!! 95% of them say the same thing! car wanders, feels like it's windy when it's not, car steers on its own, wanders both left and right, feels like it',hydroplaning, constant correction needed, feels like i don't have control, and on and on and on. Why don't you have toyota send a questionnaire out to corolla owners and ask them how their car drives on the highway? i saw a friend driving one almost identical to mine today and asked him how his handled on the road and he described the same feeling. I suggested he tell the dealer and also file a report on this site. The dealer says toyota is investigating but nothing is happening yet. Couldn't odi speed this up a little. I took mine in at 400 miles and they said nothing was wrong and offered me 14000 trade in against a used camry (i paid 17800) now , at 7000 miles they offer 12500 i'm bleeding bad and don't know what to do. Please help me and other corolla owners. Thanks for listening to my rant.
My 2010 toyota corolla still veers from lane to lane even after i took it to the dealer and complained.the dealer took the car in and "realigned" the wheels and said if there is a recall, you can show that we at least looked at your car.the car still goes from lane to lane and never tracks straight.if my attention goes to see if i can pass a car etc, i am headed to the other lane and have to correct right away.this is going to get someone seriously injured or killed-what are you waiting for-please issue a recall!!-there is something faulty with toyota's electronic steering and i believe,as many others who have complained about this same problem, have put and unsafe car on the road.
On march 6, 2010 i purchased a new 2010 toyota corolla.i drove home approx. 50 highway miles and immediately noticed that the steering seemed very different.the slightest movement of the steering wheel resulted in the car wandering right to left.i was aware that the car had eps but in no way aware that there had been problems reported similar to the one that i was experiencing.perhaps rather than a slight movement of the steering wheel, some issue caused the need to continuously steer the vehicle.in any event i thought that the eps was just something that one had to get accustomed to.however, now that i am aware that i am not alone in having this experience, i felt that i should complete this report.driving long distances on the highway is not a pleasure in this vehicle.that is about it, thanks for your time.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that various warning indicators illuminated while driving on the highway and the battery died. When the battery was jumpstarted, the power steering was lost. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,843.
When turning the steering wheel it seems to just lock up and doesn't want to turn, and i have to force the steering wheel to turn. It happens about 2 to 3 times a week. I was almost hit by a car the other day because i could not get turn the corner fast enough because i was trying to turn the wheel.it also feels like it's locking up when i am driving down the highway also.i read hundreds of other complaints regarding this exact same issue on other 2010 toyota corollas.
2010 toyota corolla - steering wheel moves right or left automatically above speed of 40 mph.
At this point, i wouldn't necessarily classify it as a defect, but as i have read with regards to other owners, my 2010 toyota corolla le (with automatic transmission) also exhibits "light" steering at highway speeds.drivers really have to pay constant close attention whenever driving above 45 mph in order to avoid moving or "wandering" out of your lane with the slightest movement of the steering wheel.in other words, the steering on this automobile is extremely sensitive, especially above 45 mph.as, such, whenever i am driving more than two hours at a time, i get extremely fatigued.in my opinion, a variable assist power steering system, based on vehicle speed, would have been a more appropriate type of power steering system to engineer into this car.i am not sure if this could have been done since this automobile utilizes an electric power steering system in place of the typical hydraulic system.
Toyota corolla s 2010 [xxx]with extra stabilizer bar kit, purchased 11-30-09 with delivery in 12/09.1) approximately 1 month after purchase ,the car starting to veer sharply right then left when driving on the highway, it was/is difficult to control requiring a tight grip on the wheel.it feels like strong winds are moving the car but winds are absent and road conditions are normal. This event comes and goes unexpectedly, generally lasts the duration of my commute once started, sometimes occurs with the tire pressure gauge but not always, sometimes occursafter rapid braking.it does not feel like an alignment or balance problem, the car darts from one end of the lane, to the median of the lane on its own. On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.
Toyota corolla difficult steering at highway speeds.steering "sticks" in position when correcting and requires constant re-correction.car does not self center upon leaving curves.when correcting to the left, car will climb over crown into on-coming lane unless re-corrected.difficult to keep the car going straight, requires constant attention and is fatiguing.

On 05/03/2010 after my daughter graduation from theuniversity of florida we were driving toyota corolla 2010 from gainesville fl to ft. Lauderdale fl. We were keeping speed of the vehicle around posted legal limit of 70 mph and experienced some difficulties to keep the vehicle straight within the limits of the lane boundaries.this car is suppose to be driven by my daughter who only now is starting to drive on the highways and i am very concerned about safety of the car.we never experienced anything like this during all our previous driving experiences with other cars. We actually look at the internet and found that it is seems not our unique experience and may be related to the design or manufacturing defects in the new electric power steering device on the toyota corolla latest model. Please take a look at the problem before it is too late for some toyota corolla owners.
I bought this vehicle a little over a week ago, and have had immense problems steering it. Once i hit 35-40 miles per hour, it becomes incredibly stiff and difficult to steer. Highway miles are the most difficult, and it takes an incredible amount of effort to keep it straight. I have had incredible pain in both shoulders since buying this car, a problem i have never had before driving any other car. For whatever reason, stabilizing this vehicle is incredible difficult, and in my opinion, is extremely unsafe to drive as a result.due to the pain in both of my shoulders, and my safety concerns while driving it, i will undoubtedly be selling this car as soon as possible.
Corolla 2010 has major issues being kept in a straight line at speeds over 55 or so.
I bought a 2010 corolla on january 15, 2010. I am not pleased with the way it steers. At first, i attributed it to being a new car as everything has to be broken in.however, after nearly 4 weeks, it's still the same.the car is very hard to drive in a straight line. The steering wheel seems extremely tight. The least little thing will cause the car to veer to the right or left. It requires excessive grip on the wheel. It's like fighting wind all the time. And when the wind is blowing, it's very difficult to handle.is this situation being reported by other corolla owners? and if so, will the issue be investigated?my daughter is the primary driver of this vehicle and she says she experiences the same issue.we've not experienced any accidents or incidents, yet! it's a scary situation.
2010 toyota corollaat highway speeds car wanders badly, hard to steer, very weird feeling of no control of vehicle. Not just one time but numerous times.
Bought corolla new jan 2010. The current mileage is 2850 miles.the car will not go in a straight line while driving over 55mph. The car drifts to either the left or right without turning the wheel.car feels as if you're driving in hard winds causing lane shifts without turning wheel.one must keep both hands tightly gripped to the steering wheel and continually over correct the wheel from left to right or right to left to keep the car traveling in a straight line at higher speeds. This problem occurs while driving on open roads.took car to dealer, tech test drove car while i was a riding along and found car to not drive normal.after test drive tech tested car, car was checked in shop and found to have no problems within their testing capabilities.wanted to keep car for further testing because he didn't know how to fix car but noted something was wrong with car. 4 days later i got a call from service department assistant manager stating that toyota was aware of problem and they had no fix available for my cars steering.was told that they didn'tknow when car could be fixed.when i ask for a loaner car until my new corolla was repaired i was told they would have to call me back.i was called back within 10 minutes and told no loaner car would be given.after that call i got another call back from the same person stating that they were going to test drive my car too see what she thinks about the car.within 5 minutes i get another call stating that she, the service department assistant manager, was in my car right now doing 70mph and there was nothing wrong with my car.summed up: from 12:30pm to 2:30pm, the same day, i was told car had a problem that tech could not fix to there is nothing wrong with your car..the next day i got another call from the dealers service department stating that some other tech had drove the car and nothing was wrong with the car. I was told thatis how the car drives and i would just have to get used to it.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that has right at 4000 miles on it.at any highway speeds above 60 mph, there is a definite problem with the steering. At first i just thought it was because the car is so small that the wind was moving it around on the road.after driving it for over a month now, it happens every time i am on the interstate.you have to work to get the car to stay centered in your lane, or look as though you are a drunk driver swerving from center line to shoulder.this issue has made me think twice about driving the car.i also just read that toyota has acknowledged this issue and i believe it needs to be recalled.i bought this new car for reliability and now i am concerned whether or not i should even being putting it on the road and putting other people at risk.something should be done about this whether it be at the hands of toyota motor corp. Or the nhtsa.either recall the corollas parts or give me my money back that i paid for a reliable car that in fact is not reliable after all.
My 2010 corolla wanders in the lane traveling at highway speeds.constantly making corrections to stay in the lane.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated she is having so many issues with this vehicle and she is afraid to drive it. The contact stated she has took the vehicle back to the dealer because of the steering, she says they told her the steering was not centered and they said they fixed it but she says she is still having the same issue. While driving 45 mph or more she finds it hard to steer the vehicle. The vehicle always pulls to the left or pulls to the right on it's own. She stated that the dealer says she just needs to get use to driving the vehicle and to drive at a 5 and 7 position. The failure mileage was 1,320. The current mileage was 1,370. Updated 04/22/10. *ljthe consumer stated the vehicle over steers at highway speeds. Updated 05/05/10
I rented a brand new (only 350 miles) 2010 toyota corolla from hertz at the orlando airport on october 19, 2009 and turned it back into a hertz location in jacksonville florida on october 23, 2009. I had trouble getting the car to "track". It was very hard to keep going straight and felt like there was a strong crosswind (which there wasn't). I talked with my wife about this on that trip, but regretfully, i did not tell the hertz people about this issue. Now i understand that many other people noticed exactly the same problem.
2010 toyota corolla s drifts to the left and right at speeds above 40 mph making car require constant adjustment to stay in lane. Longer trips are exhausting as the car has to be actively steered at all times to keep from wandering out of the lane.steering feels loose and wheel needs to be turned more than 1/6 of a turn to correct vehicle.
Steering "wanders" slightly most of the time, responding to road surface, wind, passing trucks and other vehicles.it feels like i do not have complete control over where my car goes -- that there is no direct control over the steering by the steering wheel.this requires 100% attention to the car's direction because, if i look away even for a moment, the car drifts on its own.this is a dangerous situation.i owned and drove an earlier model toyota corolla (2004) until i bought this car; in the 2004 model, the steering was precise and the car held the road beautifully.the earlier car held the line i established.not so the new one -- it has been changed, and the change leaves the car in control, not the driver.i feel like i go "wiggling" down the road, not driving down the road.note:i am struggling to find the right words to describe this problem because i do not understand the problem and because it is so different from my earlier toyota corolla.has toyota redesigned the steering system?if so, they messed it up!i hope this helps them get it fixed.this problem occurs all the time!!!!
I purchased 2010 toyota corolla s in november of 2009, and since then i am having problem with the steering wheel. I can not keep the vehicle driving straight on the freeway, i think it is very dangerous.
My toyota corolla sways back and forth very badly above speeds of around 40 to 50 mph.
My 2010 toyota corolla is unsafe, because of its steering mechanism. The car stability is unsafe at highway speeds, because it drives all over the road. It feels like i'm driving on black ice ,constantly, trying to compensate for the over steer. This problem occurs everytime drive on the highway. This will cause a accident if i continue to drive this car. I took my car to the dealership only to hear them say that the car is within spec.
We purchased a 2010 toyota corolla.the car will drift or veer to left and sometimes to the right. The steering appears unstable. We have returned the car twice to be fixed and were advised it is ok.my husband describes the problem similar to driving an old car with bad tie rods or where the ball joints were shot.he will not allow myself of my daughter who we bought the car for, to drive it.we are fearful of it drifting or veering into another car of semion the highway.note this is a frequent occurring problem.this began on january 12 when we purchased it and has continued.
I purchased a new 2010 toyota corolla from autoway toyota in saint petersburg for my wife on 12/06/09. We were stressed out after hours of haggling and high pressure from the salesmen.the next day when i drove the car more (with only 40 miles on it) i noticed that the steering was hard to handle. It wandered. I found that i have to keep 2 hands on the wheel and eyes wide as it is unpredictable. In around 6 or 7 days i was back at autoway trying for hours to get them to take it back and sell me a camry for more money!!the corolla had only 85 miles on it. But they said it had been titled, so they wanted to buy it back for a $3000+ loss to us, and then make money on the sale of another vehicle(which is the ways of the car dealer).we are stuck. So, if asked, i would testify in court that the steering in this car could cause an accident. The odds are much higher with this steering system, that someone could be hurt or killed. A car with only 40 miles on it and you notice a problem like this? imagine when it has 100,000 miles and worn tires!i have always loved toyota, until this. It makes me sick every time i drive it, and make the payment!i told my family, friends, and autoway 2 months before todays news about the steering problem broke!! any way i can help with this problem(especially if they(autoway/ and toyota) will take the car back, i will! call me to testify..
I find it very difficult to track the vehicle in a straight line on an open road in windy or uneven road conditions.there is very little or no feedback through the steering wheel.the vehicle demands your full attention under these conditions making it very tiring and in my opinion somewhat unsafe at speeds greater than 50mph.seems to be ok or better at low speeds such as in residential or city environments.these concerns were reported to the dealer service department and in the new car feedback form i received from the manufacturer.i received no feedback from the manufacturer on that survey and the dealer service department stated the steering and wheel alignment were within tolerances. I did however get the following hints from two different sales representatives , over inflate the tires, look further up the road ,put some weight in the trunk, none of which i employed.ridiculous!!!
Takata recall

My 2010 toyota corolla le seems to wander randomly left or right. It is difficult to travel in a straight line without frequent adjustment to the steering column. It feels like i am driving on a windy day and the car is being tossed around. Actually, any wind at all only makes the matter much worse. Almost feels like the rear end of the car has a slight fishtailing. This is all most noticeable at 45 mph and above. Local service dept. Could not look at it for three weeks. I will not let my 17 year old daughter drive this car.i have had this car for only six weeks and would surely give it back if i could. Disappointed that i did not get a response to my emails sent to toyota.
Vehicle steering does not feel right.cannot keep car driving straight.it feels as though it is windy, when it actually isn't windy.vehicle is brand new, just a couple of days old.this occurs when i drive faster than 50 mph.called dealership and told them of problem, and they have not had any experience with such problem.i then searched online and found many people complaining about the same issue with the same car.2010 toyota corolla s.
As noted on the news about a possible recall about the steering problems on the 2010 toyota corolla.i also own a 2010 corolla and even before the news i had problems keeping the car straight on the road. The condition gets worse at higher speeds and the problem increases when there is less gas in the tank.i took the car to the dealer to check/fix the alignment and it seems to help a little bit but the problem is still there.
Vehicle hard to handle at speeds over 60 mph.will not go straight, car wonders from side to side.
While traveling at about 50 mph the gauges went instantly from 50 to 0.at the same time multiple warning lights came on the dash. The car still had power when stepping on the gas, lights and radio were still on.when attempting to turn to get off the road, then steering wheel clicked and locked.there was no steering.my brakes did work.it was as if the car had shut itself off and then back on, but didn't unlock the steering.the car was new with less than 300 miles on it.this was the first incident of this kind,i hadno other problems with the car until then.the car was towed to the local dealership.it was tested the next day & i was told it was a speed sensor, but the sensor was not replaced.they connected it to the computer and reprogrammed it and said it was good to go.i refused to accept it until they could tell me why it happened and what they had replaced to guarantee it would not happen again.they were unable to do so and ended up replacing my car with a new one.
High speed steering is very sensitive.making it very difficult to drive on the highway at 60 mph.oversteering is common.the car changes lanes with just1/2" of movement on the steering wheel.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. Whenever the contact was driving approximately between 40-50 mph the vehicle slightly pulls to the left direction. The vehicle had not been diagnosed for the malfunction. The failure occurrence has continued since the vehicle was purchased. The current and failure mileages were 2,400.
Since the day we took ownership of our 2010 toyota corolla, i noticed that driving highway speeds, the steering feels very loose. It takes two hands to constantly try to keep the car to go straight.now at 44,000 miles the electronic steering (electric motor) whines/whistles intermittently at speeds above 45 mph. This is not an alignment or tire wear issue as it has done this since new.
1) 2010 toyota corolla sport steering is non-responsive and lacks any feedback or on-center feel. Car is very difficult to keep on track, especially on the highway, and requires constant correction to stay in the lane. Steering wheel does not return to center when turning at higher (>35mph) speeds. 2) the condition is always present. 3) car was brought to the dealer and was re-aligned after 500 miles. Condition changed very little and is still present.
While driving a 2010 toyota corolla le the steering wheel unexpectedly jerked away from my control. In addition, the power steering and braking system is making strange sounds, such as hissing, pings and cracks. I took the car to toyota dealership and mechanic stated it is probably the electrical system. He also stated that toyota will probably recall car due to complaints with powersteering. Due to the above issues and recent recalls on my car, my wife and i don't feel safe and secure in car. We are scared of dying like other toyota owners have in the past. We would like a full refund of $17, 209.97 from toyota motor sales usa.
I recently purchased a 2010 toyota corolla. The car has a very loose steering system. When you are driving at speeds under 45 mph the steering is very unresponsive and extremely light to turn. At highway speeds the car will move around the lane without moving the steering wheel. The car seems to pull from side to side similar to the alignment being out of line, but it goes both ways in an almost jerky motion. At first i thought this may have been changes in the road conditions, but the car will do it on completely smooth and flat pavement. No corrective actions have been taken.
Purchased a new 2010 corolla. Driving home from work last week, i had two service lights on (my car has 1400 miles on it). The steering in the car seemed "loose" as i drove home, but when i went to turn on my street, the steering wheel did not turn and the abs failed. I hit a curb on the opposite side of the road damaging a strut and an alloy wheel. My local dealer, lakeland toyota, told me it was not their problem but that i needed to figure out how to pay for the repairs. They told me that they had no idea why those two warning lights were on.i am currently trying to work with toyota corporate to get this resolved in a manner that i will feel safe driving the car.kind of hard to do when they refuse to accept that there is a problem.
Steering complaint. I just purchased a used 2010 toyota corolla for my 60 mile daily freeway commute. The steering is very concerning to me as it seems like i have to struggle to keep the vehicle straight. It's almost as if it's floating and being blown in the wind, except there's no wind actually blowing outside. This is very noticeable (and concerning) due to my long commute.
My car's steering wheel for the past couple of days has been so stiff and hard to maneuver. I went to work fine but as i was about to leave work, i turned the car on, seems like the start was weak, as i backed up 2 feet, the steering wheel was so hard to maneuver. I went to park my car back to where it was from, turned off the engine, then all i hear was a clicking sound, engine won't start. Coworkers jumped the car, it started, took it to advance for diagnosis, they didn't find anything wrong on the alternator or battery (both less than 2 years old). The car ran like nothing was wrong. Went to work driving the car the following day. It was fine, until i have to leave work again. The same thing happened!!! car's on park, started the car, backed up, turned the wheels, it was stiff and it seemed to have locked, coworkers jump started it, drove home but the steering wheel was acting weird. I made it home. Husband drove the car a blocks from the house to see it for himself then while driving back he mentioned that the steering wheel started get sooooo hard and stiff. It was not safe for me to drive the car. This needs to be investigated.
Own a 2010 toyota corolla s vehicle and the steering is horrible at highway speeds.the vehicle tracks from left to right with the slightest compensation causing the vehicle to almost jerk in the compensated direction.this vehicles steering is dangerous and i have several friends that are complaining of the same issue.i contacted my dealers service rep and was basically told this is normal with a chuckle.my vehicle now has 2000 miles on it almost all interstate miles.toyota needs to fix this issue.i will be pressing my dealer to buy this vehicle back.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving approximately 40 mph, the steeling wheel locked up and the vehicle became difficult to maneuver. The power steering warning light illuminated. In addition, while parked, the steering wheel locked up. The failure recurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the steering column needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 105,000.
The vehicle has developed steering issues at about 39000 miles. I am finding that the steering is oversensitive. You must constantly correct the steering at all speeds, it takes a lot of concentration to drive down the road and stay in your lane. I am concerned that this may also get the attention of law enforcement assuming that one is driving under the influence. I have owned three corollas and have never had this issue. Tires are wearing normally however.*
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated he is having an ongoing problem with his steering. When driving his vehicle it will steer to the left or the right on it's own, it does not matter how fast he is going it does it at all speeds. The contact stated he noticed this the first day he drove the vehicle on the highway driving at 45 mph. He contacted the dealer and the dealer told him to drive the vehicle for a couple thousand miles and it would be ok. The failure and currentmileage was 300.updated 5/17/2010 * cnupdated 05/20/10.
2010 toyota corolla -- steering problem.very difficult to keep car within travel lane when driving at highway speed. This is not related to wind gusts but occurs at all the times.feels like there are dead spots in the wheel and there is little to no road feel feedback.the car does not track straight on its own but requires constant steering corrections.i am 69 years old and have owned and driven many cars/trucks including my 2002 toyota avalon and my daughter's 1993 corolla and have never before experienced the type steering issue that we have with our new 2010 toyota corolla.i believe this to be significant safety issue and if a driver in not paying 100% attention and constantly correcting to keep car within the travel lane the result could be disastrous.toyota needs to be required to fix this steering issue with its new corolla's.[this occurs all the time - but your form forces me to enter an incident date so i am just using jan 1, 1901 to proceed with the form.updated 03/19/10.
I have a 2010toyota corolla.the vehicle has been taken to the selling dealer twice and an additional dealer once. I took it in for what i deem as unsafe steering. The vehicle wanders even when holding the wheel locked straight with both hands. The dealers checked alignment and said its the nature of the electronic steering. My wife wont drive the car for fear of how it feels.
I purchased this brand new 2010 toyota corolla for my daughter. While driving this car on the highway at speeds of 65 mph or higher, the vehicle wanders. It constantly feels like sudden gusts of wind are pushing the vehicle out of the driving lane. This is extremely unnerving.i am a captain with a major airline, and i took the car out to get a sense of what my daughter has explained to me. In 31 years of flying, i have never felt more insecure in a vehicle. I am afraid to relax.i understand the need for vigilance while driving on a highway. Driving this vehicle requires so much concentration that what should be a simple 4 hour drive from my daughter's college to her home is exhausting.
I recently purchased a 2010 corolla on february 3, 2010.i was drivingdown the road tonight from work and my car started drifting to the left.it was extremely hard for me to stay in the proper lane.it appears if the car was drifting by itself, and i was on the verge of losing control.by researching how to report this problem i noticed there were many complaints on this same situation.toyota is putting may lives into danger, this issue needs to be investigated immediately.what are my options regarding this issue?is returning/exchanging this car a possibility at this time due to the fact i have only owned this vehicle a week?i feel very unsafe driving this vehicle.my family is in extreme risk, i would like someone to call me immediately regarding this situation.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. He stated that when driving 25 mph and making a turn the steering wheel stayed in that same position and never returned to the straight position. He also stated that when driving and trying to engage the brake pedal he had to apply a lot pressure on the pedal so that it could decrease the speed. The failure was duplicated and the contact advised that the vehicle was functioning normally. No repairs were made to the vehicle. The failure mileage was 300 and the current mileage was 888.
2010 toyota corolla le which suddenly veers left or right at high speeds (45mph or greater).while holding the steering wheel perfectly straight, the car will wander left or right causing the driver to correct the steering and pay excessive attention to simply keeping the car in its own lane.this occurs all the time when driving above 45mph.no accident has taken place, but i fear for myself and my family members who drive the vehicle.as a result, we have driven the car sparingly or only for local destinations which do not require taking a highway.i have taken the car to a dealership where the service advisor admitted that the steering is "too sensitive" causing the vehicle to "wander" and that while there is "no fix for it yet [he] hopes for a fix soon."regardless of these statements, he wrote on my service papers that the vehicle "road tested normal characteristic."a month later, i called the service advisor again to complain about the problem still persisting.i requested to bring in the car for an additional review of the problem.he denied my request by stating that "there's no point in bringing in the car until a fix is issued."i then brought the vehicle to another dealership, which was not helpful at all.they outright denied my claim that there was a problem and stated on my service paperwork that the "vehicle drives normal" and that they "cannot duplicate the customer concern."no fix has been done and the vehicle sits in the garage virtually untouched (less than 800 miles) when it was bought over 3 months ago.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla and when i drive on the highway over 60 mph.. The steering feels funny...it's hard to stay in my lane...the car seems to drift...
Difficulty turning steering wheel.i was pulling out of a store parking lot & onto a main street and as i was driving and beginning to turn right the steering wheel became very stiff and difficult to turn. I became anxious because i was halfway on the main street so i used both hands to turn my vehicle onto the street and looked for the nearest side street to get out of harms way. Once i got onto a side street many if not all lights on my center console illuminated (brake light, battery, abs, vcs, engine light etc.).i have about 140000 miles on my vehicle.
I just bought abrand new 2010 toyota corolla 6/28/10. It has serious steering wandering problems. I took it to the dealer today(7/1/10, and they confirmed but did not fix the problem. When i got home, i looked it up on the web and see that there have been numerous complaints about this problem. What can i do?
While exiting interstate ramp to the right, steering would not turn back straight and continued turning to the right, braked hard and car stopped on right shoulder of ramp turned car off and restarted steering went back to working.something similar to this has happened several times. Have taken car to several toyota dealerships and they do a quick check and say there is nothing wrong. This week i have left car at florence toyota and told them to keep it all week to try and find problem. Have seen online that there are all kinds of similar complaints. My daughter says it happens more often now if accelerating while trying to turn and more often in wet driving conditions. This car has electrically assisted steering system.
While drivingapproximately 3 mph and making a sharp turn into a parking spot, the steering became extremely tight, as if it was manual steering and didn't free up until i applied the gas again to move forward. Car being driven by spouse of owner.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 30 mph, the contact noticed that the vehicle began to drift. The failure continued to occur intermittently. The dealer stated that it appeared to be safe at this time and she may need some time getting adjusted to electronic steering. The failure mileage was not available. The current mileage was 1,000.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The vehicle waspreviously repaired under nhtsa campaign id number: 10v023000 (vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal). The contact stated that after repairs, the vehicle would hesitate intermittently when attempting to accelerate from a complete stop or when accelerating while in motion at low speeds.the contact attempted to apply more force to the pedal but the vehicle was hesitant to increase in speed. In addition, the accelerator pedal was modified when repaired under the recall and the contact stated it was difficult to apply pressure to the pedal. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact wasinformed they could install a new accelerator pedal but the dealer was unsure if the repair would correct the failure. The dealer reset the internal computer but did not make any repairs to the pedal itself. The failures continued to recur intermittently. The failure mileage was 3,630 and the current mileage was 7,444. Updated 12/01/10. *ljthe consumer also stated the front of the vehicle wanders all over the road. Updated 12/13/10
Steering wanders. Car drifts on highway.
My new toyota corolla 2010 - when driving on the highway (60+ mph), the vehicle will all of a sudden start to wander back and forth in the lane, for a few hundred yards. Then as quickly as it started, it stops. The wandering has almost created 4 collisions so far. This needs to be looked at before someone gets seriously hurt, as these problems are happening at hi speeds on the highways.
We purchased a 2010 toyota corolla.we did not notice the power steering problem right away.after driving it for about a week the power steering would start floating when the wheel would be straight.it is very dangerous because if you do not hold the steering wheel tight the vehicle floats into other lanes and onto the shoulder.i have taken it twice to the dealership now just to be told that the vehicle is within their requirements and that there is no problem with the steering.they refuse to admit that something may be wrong and state that the corolla now haselectronic power steering which is why it feels that way.no car should steer you off the roadway when it is driving straight.this is not normal and toyota is refusing to acknowledge the problem.no one has been injured yet and no accidents have happened because you have to constantly keep correcting the wheel when the vehicle is moving.
I purchased a 2010 corolla in august 2009.i did not test drive the car on the highway but rather in the neighborhood of the dealership.once i started driving the car on the highway, i noticed that the steering seemed too loose.when i took it to the dealership for 5000 mile check and complained about it, i was told that the steeringmechanism was fine.i continued to experience difficultly driving the car in speeds greater than 50 - 55 miles per hour.i don't know how else to describe it but it feels like i have little control over the car.i definitely have to use two hands to control the car and a sneeze or changing a radio station causes the car to drift or swerve into another lane.the car doesn't feel tight to the road, it feels like it is hyrdoplaning.driving in a stiff wind is challenging.on the 10,000 mile check up, i complained again and was told that my complaint had been noted.i question the safety of the car.
I bought my 2010 corollas on jan 13th. When i drove it home for the first time, i found it was very hard to keep it in the center of the lane at highway speed. I had to keep adjusting my steering wheel. I took it back to the dealer two days later. They made some adjust and it is not that bad now, but the problem still exists.i think this problem is more serious than the gas pedal problem, because this affect driving immediately and directly. Toyota says that this is how eps is designed, and we have to adapt ourselves. But no matter how the steering system is designed, moving straight forward should not be an issue.
Our 2010 toyota corolla wanders all over the road like you are driving in a heavy cross wind. The dealer says it is the road but we drive approx. 3000 miles a month on a lot of different roads and is the same.
When driving at speed over 50 mph my car pulls to the right making it dangerous to control.i feel like for that time its pulling i have no control over my vehicle and if driving in left lane of 2 lane highway or road that i may end up causing an accident with vehicles driving in right lane beside me.
Power steering has noisy either left and right turn all the times.
Difficulty controlling and steering car at 60 mph going across bridge. There was some wind but not strong enough in my opinion that should have cause me to be so aware of the drifting.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving at least 55 mph, the steering wheel would not remain in a straight position. Occasionally, the steering wheel would pull to the left or right direction without driver intent. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer, no repairs have been made. The failure mileage was 1,000 and the current mileage was 3,000.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the steering wheel became unresponsive and the brakes became stiff. As a result, the vehicle hydro-plane on the wet pavement and crashed against a guard rail. The air bags failed to deploy. The contact sustained injuries that required medical attention. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 50,000.
The new corolla has no feedback of the road and would not stay centeredin road and wanders around. It has to be corrected repeatedly making long trips very tiring. I took it to toyota and they centered the steering and added a upgrade circuit board which to fix the problem. I have been ill for the last three years and unable to use the car and had other people drive me. They also had steering problems. When i started driving again i started having the same problem and believe the car is a danger to any one driving it. I took the car back to toyota 8/2015 and they said the wandering was normal for the model using electric steering. I had technician do a 8 mile test drive to confirm the problem. They reported to me there was no fix required by the government at this time and they were unable to do anything. Present mileage 17500.
My wife usually drives the car and has complained several times about the ride and steering of the car.on this day i was driving on a freeway at 60 mph when i noticed that car does feel loose and can become hard to control.i am a senior mechanical engineer and work on loads and dynamics in aerospace systems.the car feels like it has a poor steering system, and bounces back and forth in a dead band and becomes hard to control.this could be an explanation why the front tires wear at an excessively high rate.
I recently leased a 2010 toyota corolla about 2 weeks ago. My problem is over the steering of the vehicle, i have been driving for over 12 years now, and this vehicle is totally unstable at highway speeds from 40mph and above. When i say unstable i mean the steering is too light for feel, and the car has a horrible tendency to sway into another lane. Every highway trip is a potentially hazardous adventure. I read that this may be because of electric steering installed on recent model corollas...i am at a loss because i don't think the dealer is going to do anything for the steering, and i really have a strong feeling it is not the tires or brakes that toyota is claiming, that affects the steering. I feel that they are trying to work there way around this issue. I need help as i have just got into my lease, overall i still think its a good car but not with this steering, it truly is scary to drive on any highway.
Purchased 2010 with 35k miles.test drove car but did not notice steering issue until i drove it a lot.the steering control force changes with speed.steering will not stay straight and pulls to left depending on speed the pull may be worse to the left.took to dealer twice and ntb for alignment but is according to repair shops the alignment is in specs and the tires are good.if it turned to the right i would be bad but better because now it turns towards oncoming cars right now and poses a danger to myself and family.
We purchased a 2010 toyota corolla in sep 2009.the day after we purchased the vehicle we noticed the eps system was very erratic, causing constant corrections.this is more noticeable at highway speeds, therefore on the "test" drive, we didn't realize the extent of the problem.the car has been taken back to the dealer three times with no resolution. We have contacted toyota with the problem and their response was "the operation of the vehicle is within design specifications."this is a very dangerous situation.toyota designed and manufactured a vehicle with a steering system that is unstable, distracting and unsafe.for a company that advertises safety and reliability, i would think they would be responsive to so many safety concerns with the corolla's electronic power steering system.even the technicians agree there is a problem with the design.we would like to see some resolution for this problem before someone is fatally injured.
The steering on my 2010 toyota corolla is very "loose" - in other words, the car tends to wander within a lane while going straight.it takes more than normal vigilance to keep the car going straight.it seems to be buffeted by the wind (such as when passing a large truck) more than any other vehicle i have ever owned. I feel the necessity to keep both hands on the wheel to keep the car from drifting on the road.other vehicles i have had track in a straight line even with my hands off of the steering wheel - not so with the corolla.the car requires a lot of attention to drive and can be tiring to drive for extended periods.
My 2010 toyota corolla will not drive in a straight line. You have to constantly keep moving the steering wheel to keep the car in the center of the road.
My new 2010 toyota corolla has a problem when driven on the interstate.the car wobbles and i am constantly steering to keep it going straight.it doesn't seem stable--as if it's being buffeted by high winds even though it's a calm day.i am afraid it is going to veer off the road and therefore i have tried to avoid driving it on the interstate.i have spoken with the dealership and was informed that all the corollas are like that and it will only be fixed if there is a recall.i will not be able to keep this car if this is not fixed because i am afraid to drive it. The consumer stated the airbag recall has exceeded a reasonable amount of time to be repaired. Updated 7/7/17
I have a 2010 toyota corolla. When i am driving on the highway and reach speeds of over 40 mph it is very hard to keep the car in a straight line or in the proper driving lane. The car begins to sway as if it is being buffeted by hard winds. Often it takes two hands on the steering wheel to get control of the car's swaying motion and just when you think you've got it corrected, it sways again and can easily overcorrect itself.
Steering the corolla is difficult and requires intense effort.the issue is the car wonders/swerves and is thus difficult to keep tracking correctly.this is first electric power steering vehicle i have owned and perhaps it respond differently from hydraulic steering but this steering issue is very dangerous, taking your eyes off the road even to scan gauges will have you steering off the road or adjacent lane.just bought this vehicle 1/19 with only 70k so it's in mint condition and no accident history or evidence to blame.
While driving my 2010 toyota corolla at highway speeds, the car drifts unpredictably and suddenly, with no apparent cause.i have noticed this as an issue since soon after purchasing it in july 2009.as a result of these steering issues, i have often come frighteningly close to cars in the lanes on either side of me, and i am afraid that this will actually cause a high speed accident at some point in the future.
We purchased a used certified 2010 corolla about a month ago and soon discovered that it took constant adjustments in steering to keep the car tracking straight on the expressway. I researched online and found many serious complaints about this car's steering as well as a "fix" offered by toyota to replace the power steering computer assembly (t-sb-0140-10). We took the car to the dealer and had the new one put in. The day after it was done, we drove approximately 230 miles round trip, almost all of it on the freeway. We were pleased to find that the steering was good and the car tracked straight. Two days later, we did the same trip and immediately knew something was totally different. The steering was suddenly far worse than before the fix. It felt like we were hydroplaning, drifting, and floating side to side, and i had to concentrate fully on keeping the car in my lane. It felt much like driving on a wet, slippery surface. I drove awhile before exiting the freeway so my wife could take it for a "test drive". She said it was downright scary. Then my college-age son gave it a whirl. He agreed about the scary part, saying it was completely wrong. He finally pulled into a rest stop and we turned the car off for the first time in about eighty miles since we had been switching "test" drivers with the engine running. When we resumed driving from the rest area, the steering was fine. It was completely different than ten minutes before. That was the end of our two-handed, white knuckle driving session. We continued to our destination and then back home with normal steering. We've owned toyotas since 1978. This is our fifth corolla. We have never experienced anything like this in our lives, in any car. In our case, this came out of the blue, right after we thought things were good. There's something going on with the corolla steering that demands a real fix.
Purchased a new 2010 corolla 4-door sedan s;immediately a problem with the brakes and steering was noticed upon first long drive.when depressed the brakes would go all the way to the floor.steering the car in a straight line down the freeway was almost impossible without constant corrections, i call it nervous steering, which after more than 50 miles because very stressful and tiring. Purchase date 8-22-09. The vehicle was returned to the nearest toyota dealership located in victorville, california early sept 09.the brakes were examined and after certain corrections the brake pedal is better but not perfect.as for the steering..the technician says it's within normal parameters...what every that means.there is definitely a defect with the steering system;after reviewing the vehicle brochure regarding the steering system it reads "electric power steering (eps) helps gives corolla steering response that's effortlessly accurate" however nothing could more from the truth.it's been my experience after 7000 miles on the odometer...that when steering the car down the highway...the car will literally leave the lane your driving in which requires steering correction to keep it in the driving lane you're traveling. The brochure further reads that "eps also eliminates hydraulic-assist components that can reduce fuel economy" however i would say at what cost...if this new system renders the steering process a very nervous and tiring experience for the driver.a fatigued driver is an unsafe driver...i credit the fault with this new system "eps" as a potential disaster waiting to happen. It's my assessment after owning this vehicle now 6 months...that toyota needs to revisit this "eps" system and consider returning to the former hydraulic-assist components...it may more costly for them to build...but at least it worked.i bought this car because it had a reputation for safety and reliability however it's been the absolute worst purchase ever imagined.
When pulling into parking space the steering wheel tend to lock up and very hard to turn. Then at the stop sign, when proceeding to make a left turn, the steering wheel locked up and very hard to turn as if it was like a non-power steering.
Steering is inaccurate at highway speeds.
I have a toyota corolla sport 2010. It is difficult to steer straight, vehicle goes side to side, making it more difficult to control, especially in highways.i went to the car dealer (toyota) to fix the problem with the pedal and they said theis working according how the manufacture expects.
Bought my new 2010 corolla s on dec. 28th, 2009; noticed how the steering was odd, but thought it was my imagination.it seems to drift on it's own left and right - like it's being blown around by a gust of wind - but the wind isn't blowing!this happens every time i drive the car. Each time it does this veering maneuver i look at the surrounding trees to see if they are being blown too - but they are not.i have just over 1,000 miles on this vehicle and i feel like i've been scammed by toyota. This is my first official complaint and i will call the dealership tomorrow.
Since delivery, my new 2010 corolla has had a steering problem. It veers or wanders to the left or fight randomly and unexpectedly at highway speeds (65-75mph). Not the alignment. Very dangerous if there are other vehicles beside you. Is not due to the wind - occurs on windless days. Have owned 25 cars in 50 years, some toyotas; this is the worst - will not stay straight; both dangerous and fatiguing to drive. Must fully focus and make constant corrections to track straight. Recall! unsafe!
On 08/30/2019 i was driving down a suburban city street going 40mph and slowed down to make a left turn, but was unable to move the steering wheel because is hadu locked up and would not turn.i was terrified because i had to come to a complete in the middle of the street because the car kept moving straight ahead. I was afraid of being hit, because i could get the steering wheel to turn. Out of desperation and fear, i grabbed the left side of the steering wheel with both hands and tried to pull down to make the steering wheel turn...i was using extreme force, pulling numerous times before the steering wheel finally moved the wheels to the left so i could make the left hand turn.but when i tried to turn the steering wheel to the right to straighten the wheels and continue moving straight ahead, the same thing occurred....the steering wheel required excessive force, using two hands pulling down on the same side of the steering wheel repeated times to get the car in position to move forward.by the grace of god, no traffic came down the road in either direction.i continued traveling down the straight road for two miles, until i came to a stoplight where i had to make another left turn.when the light turned green, the same thing occurred...i had to repeated apply excessive force to get the steering wheel to turn, which seemed like an eternity.this time there was traffic behind me beeping their horns to get out of the way, but since the power steering was not working, it took about 1-2 minutes pull the steering wheel to turn the car.i turned on the flasher lights, drove 10mph and continued home.the car drove straight: steering wheel locked-up and required exessive force for next four right/left turns i had to make to get home. Afraid to drive car; injured rt rotor cup using such force to turn the steering wheel.taking to toyota dealer tomorrow for diagnosis.
Steering on 2010 toyota corolla is vague, resulting in difficulty in maintaining lane when driving over 45 mph.constant correction is required.suggest looking at differences between this vehicle and 2009 pontiac vibe (which we also own, and is built on same platform) which does not exhibit same degree of driving difficulty.
Bought 2010 corolla on 11/21/09 with 6 miles. Upon driving home, i noticed the steering wheel is not centered, but slightly crooked to the left. When we hop into the fwy and doing 50mph+, the vehicle starts to drift left and right. I had to make small corrections by steering it left and right to make the car drives straight. My girlfriend drove the vehicle yesterday and upon making a left curve on the freeway doing 60mph, the steering was not fully responsive. She veered one lane to the right instead! we were lucky that the fwy was empty at that moment. I feel that there is a steering problem that makes this vehicle dangerous to drive.
When i am driving my 2010 toyota corolla s on the highway at speeds of over 50 mph it does not stay straight. It requires alot of strength to keep it straight. It feels like the car is being moved to the right or left by winds. Feels very unsafe to drive. The steering wheel is so stiff to turn sometimes. I have done the wheel alignment several times and put on new tires recently but the problem still remains. Very unsafe to drive and i get very tired after driving at highway speeds just maintaining in my own lane. The dealer's are not much helpful at all with this. I've read online alot of people having problems with this make and model with the steering. There needs to be an investigation on this soon because it's very dangerous to drive.
I rented a 2010 toyota corolla in ft. Lauderdale, fl. Car had about 5,000 miles. While driving on i-95, the car swerved to the left. Steering was difficult to control. However, the problem did not repeat itself on the return trip later that day.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated that whenever he drove the vehicle over 60 mph, the steering wheel became loose and difficult to control. He constantly had to correct the steering wheel to keep it straight. He called the dealer and scheduled an appointment to have the vehicle inspected. He had not spoken with the manufacturer when the complaint was filed. The vin was unavailable. The current mileage was approximately 300. The failure mileage was approximately 20.
My new 2010 toyota corolla s has an issue with staying on the highway.my car seems to pull to the left when i get up to 55-60mph.i brought the car back to the dealer with this complaint and they did say one tire was a little low.they have put air in but it did not change.
Toyota of kingsport2525 east stone drivekingsport, tn 37660on november 27, 2009, i purchased a 2010 toyota corolla, from a 3rd party for my ex-wife of gate city, virginia. During the test drive, the 3rd party and i discussed the accelerator problem that was being reported in the news and on many internet websites. He assured me that there was not a problem. He also told me that the corolla had never in its entire history been the subject of a recall. I later found out this to be untrue. There is also a problem with the steering on this car. It wanders at higher speeds and will not hold a straight line. This is a serious and dangerous defect, especially for a 60-year old woman. You cannot take your eye off the road even for a split second or you may find yourself in the next lane or running off the road. This is highly unacceptable. According to the news, this steering defect has been reported to toyota on many occasions. My ex wife is on disability. She had major heart surgery in february, 2009. She had two heart valves replaced, two heart artery by-passes and had to have a graft on her heart aorta. She has many other disabilities to deal with. This was her first new car in 13 years. She previously drove a toyota tercel for 13 years - a good car. Together, we have owned a camry, tercel, tundra, tacoma and now this corolla. But i can assure you that this will be the last toyota i will ever buy. Toyota has know about these defects but still continued to sell them to the public. The word that comes to mind is fraud. I am at a loss as what to do. I am also on disability and cannot afford to replace this car for her and i worry each day that she has to drive this car. Please respond in writing how you plan to address this situation. As each day passes, the chance of her being involved in an accident grows greater. You will receive a copy of this letter by certified mail.
While driving at highway speeds in light to moderate wind the vehicle is difficult to maintain direction.vehicle will continually wander and requires constant correction to maintain desired direction of travel.

Steering on 2010 corolla. My 2010 corolla wanders when you try to keep it in a straight line. I have to constant try to keep it from wandering. I notice this when i first got it in november 2009, but when i heard it on the news, i knew it just was not me.

I've driven this 2010 toyota corolla for less than 500 miles and i started to noticed that it's very hard to keep the car from veering or drifting to the left . Drifting is more noticeable when car reaches a speed of 40mph or more.i took it to the dealer for service and according to the dealer the car is aligned to specification by toyota. I hope this car eps (electric power steering) get recall soon before it causes accidents across the nation.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact was driving 60-70 mph when the vehicle began to veer back and forth abnormally. The failure recurred frequently and the vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer who stated that that computer steering assembly would need to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired and the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The current mileage was approximately 5,700 and the failure mileage was approximately 4,700.
Highway driving is like the wind is blowing hard and blowing the car all over the place. The car wanders around the road and makes steering very difficult and dangerous.
Unintended veering at highway speeds. It feels like a gust of wind hitting the car all the time.
.the steering on my 2010 corolla is hard to control. The vehicle feels like it is wandering on the road and it is difficult to correct. The problem is much worse at highway speeds above 60mph. Driving the car in crosswinds is difficult and scary due to the "floating" feel of the steering. *dt
Car steering drifts when driving on highway for any distance.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated was exiting a residential driveway when the steering wheel became abnormally heavy and she was unable to maneuver the vehicle. The failure recurred numerous times but sporadically. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis however no assistance was given. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was 36,000 and the current mileage was 43,000.
Bought 2010 corolla on 2/27/2010, felt the wheel is very tight comparing to the rental 2010 corolla i had before purchasing this corolla. Sent it to dealer, they felt the same way, and "swap the power steering" for me while kept it in for 11 days. I took it home yesterday, but found its as tight as before. I feel its like driving a truck, and power steering is barely working, especially the speed is over 20mph. I feel i have to hold very tight with both hands on the highway to keep it straight.
After i turned around the corner of etna st /derby st. In berkeley, the steering suddenly malfunctioned andthe car veered to the roadside and hit a parked car. I tried to brake immediately. The impact was slight, but my car could not be moved any more. I called the police and the roadside assistance of my insurance company. The person from the roadside assistance told me that the steering mechanism broke and the front axle fell out. On the day following the incident, i reported it to toyota cooperation and am currently waiting for theirresponse.
1. This car can not be driven in a straight line on the highway even when you hold steering without moving. It seems vehicle slowly, consistently drifts mostly to the left and to the right. One needs to pay so much attention on steering while driving. This problem has been there since day one (8 miles) and i requested to fix before i sign the paper work but not has been taken care other than car wash. This issue still exists even after performing alignment during our first service visit as i thought it was an alignment issue. We believe it is a very serious issue than sticky pedal and pose a potential risk for corolla ownersif we can not control steering. It has potential road hazard as the vehicle wanders both left and right especially with heavy traffic and feels like car wheels are not under control. We are positive that these steering/suspension issues were also raised on other 2010 corollas by a number of owners. Toyota and dealers must be fully aware of these concerns but failed to declare up front. During our second visit they told us about ts 1040 and replaced steering control computer board. Seems wandering issue is gone for now. But tires are problem as i am having concern from the beginning.2. I feel humming mild vibration/resonance in steering wheel when we cross 50-60 mph. It feels like tires are vibrating the steering wheel. Replacing computer controller did not fix mild vibration of steering.3. Tires: as i had doubt about tires this could betires problem but toyota service team isnot willing to accept the fact. Once you cross 62 mph you can clearly feel the tire vibration mainly in a steering wheel and also on the vehicle. Road force balancing has been done but there is no improvement. I am not sure it is engine related or tires. I have been insisting on replacing another set of better balanced tires or different make of tires.
Sudden failure of my car's power steering: i was driving at abt 50-55 miles per hour at i-880 going north, i was making a lane change because my exit was approaching, when all of a sudden, i lost my power steering, my steering wheel became super hard to move or turn, and i almost hit the rear-right side of the car in front of me, which was at the same lane. I was able to change lane but it was a very close call for collision-accident. I was told that my car has electric power steering (eps). Such eps should have a back up system, or such failure should not happen all of a sudden--in a blink of an eye. Without a back up system, such sudden failure could result in fatal accident. It was too scary, panicky, n stressful for me. Then, when making a left n a right turn, because of my super hard to turn-steering wheel, i suffered a sprain n pain in the left side n the right side of my body. The mileage of my car was about 106470 miles when it happened.
When driving my 2010 toyota corolla on the highway, the steering will suddenly drift from side to side giving the sensation that i am hydroplaning or that my tires are bald, even though the roads are completely dry.luckily, nothing has happened yet, but it is very disconcerting and very scary. I could easily see something happening if i were to overcompensate and steer to the other direction.this would be easy to do because the steering feels so loose.i have not done anything yet.it's such a new car that i'm not sure what i can do - until something actually fails, which would be too late.i really hope nhtsa researches this issue immediately.
I drive a 2010 toyota corolla.there is something wrong with the antilock brake system; especially if i am trying to apply the brake to slow the car and am making a right turn(even slightly turning right).it'slike the brakes lock up and the steering gets like a mac truck.this also happens when i go over a bump and/or pothole.it most recently even happened when i was driving down the highway and there was a slight right curve in the road and i wasn't applying the brakes.i took the car into the dealership today and they could find nothing wrong.within an hour of leaving the dealership; it happened twice yet they couldn't duplicate the problem.i have a brand new car and am afraid to drive it.supposedly my car wasn't recalled for the gas pedal because it was made in japan but feel like the gas pedal is sticky at times.i am very upset because i just put all this money out and i have an unsafe vehicle to drive.my daughter and i were going to try and drive across country this summer and now we cannot possibly for we donot feel safe in this car.toyota should have to buy back the vehicles.i believe there is a much bigger problem causing all this that they are not admitting and/or have not found yet.i didn't complain or take the car back right away because i had similar problems with the scion xd and was told there was nothing wrong again and again.this is an ongoing problem.
2010 toyota corolla, with defective seat and steering apparatus. I have expressed my concern with the manufacture and the dealership with no resolution.
From the day i purchase the car (a 2010 toyota corolla) and drove it off the lot with only 16 miles. I noticed that the car would constantly over correct and attempt to drift outside its lane at high speeds (above 45 mph). At first, i thought it was simply a new car breaking in and my brother's car (a 2008 mazda 3) show the same behaviors but quickly went away the more he drove (around the 500 mile mark). However, this did not occur in my vehicle and i am constantly having to deal with the overly sensitive steering of the car. This is has an affect of tiring me out from all the over correction. Currently, i have garaged the toyota awaiting word from the dealer on the gas pedal repairs and using my oldsmobile. I would like to have this issue resolved. I hold no ill will towards the dealers, in fact i feel bad that they are caught in the middle. I certainly would like toyota to address this issue.
My 2010 toyota corolla drifted from lane while driving. I was able to get back into the correct lane, but it drifted back out of lane and i had to reduce speed to properly correct the situation and avoid side-swiping a vehicle. This has happened a couple of times as i drive to work on a major highway.
Cars alignment is out of whack. While driving the car will turn on it own to the right or left reported it to toyota and they said we cant do anything.
At speeds over 45 the vehicle wanders in lanes and gives a "out of control" feeling on the freeway. More noticeable on concrete roadways. This has been an ever increasing problem since vehicle was purchased used from dealer river view auto sales in lake havasu arizona on 09-19-2013 with an estimated 75000 miles (original odo reading not disclosed on dealer documents).
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla le. The contact stated that the vehicle was repaired under nhtsa campaign id number 10v023000 (vehicle speed control: accelerator pedal). The very next day, the vehicle drove over a curb without driver intent. On a separate occasion, while driving at an approximate speed of 45 mph, the steering wheel uncontrollably began veering from left to right without driver assistance. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The dealer could not duplicate the failure. The dealer stated that there were no repairs available to correct the failure. The owner stated that he would not drive the vehicle over 1700 miles. The approximate current and failure mileages were 3,437.
Poor steering control especially in windy condition ever since new 9/2009 car will not go straight in windy condition.
Car will pull to the right or left, and then when you try to straighten it via the steering wheel it will overcorrect and pull too much in the opposite direction.whenever driving on the expressway or highway, this happens.we have to constantly keep our hands firmly gripped on the steering wheel or else the car will start drifting.this has been a constant issue since the car was purchased in dec 2009, even though we have taken it to the dealership who performed an alignment.the alignment did not fix the problem, and this occurs every single time the car is driven.

The consumer also stated she heard a clicking sound from the vehicle, then all of a sudden, the vehicle took off.the incident happened severalmore times.updated 11/13/14
I have a 2010 corolla. The steering in this car is not right and thedealer says there is no fix .on the highway the car wanders left to right. I am always making small corrections to keep the car straight. The real problem with this car is when its windy on the highway a gust of wind will move it enough were its borderline dangerous.

The odi started an investigation in feb. About the steering on '09 and '10 corollas. At that time there were 168 complaints and 6 crashes. Now there are over 500 complaints and 34 crashes involving these vehicles, and no updates. Somebody please actually read this and let us unfortunate toyota owners know what is going on! the matrix was also listed in the investigation, but there are no steering complaints for those model years listed. I own a 2010 corolla and have filed a complaint, been to the dealer several times,and called odi and got no help from anyone. These cars have a serious problem with drifting all over the road (as 99% of the complaints say one way or another) and i would like to know what to do. I hope other people who have filed complaints keep checking up on them. Thanks in advance for listening!!!!
My 2010 corolla wanders in the lane traveling at highway speeds. Constantly making corrections to stay in the lane.also the truck lid has a problem staying up,have had the pedal recall done, but don't think that well solve the problem.
Letter from senator tester on behalf of constituent re toyota (direct response to billings office)the consumer stated the vehicle would drift out of the lane he was driving in. The vehicle pulled to the left or right at times. During inclement weather, the vehicle was very difficult to steer. At low speeds the vehicle steered fine, but it was highway speeds where there was a problem. The dealer patched a tire and rotated them, but the steering problem continued.another dealer discovered one of thetires had 5 psi more than the other tires, they also made some adjustments to the rear end. The consumer was then advised to put weight in the trunk and to get snow tires. After the work was completed it seemed a little better, but the vehicle still wandered into the next lane. The consumer went back to the first dealer and was told the steering issue was a design problem and there was nothing they could do.
I just bought this car on monday 2/15/2010, from dick milham toyota in easten p.a. There is a real problem with the steering, at speeds over 50mph you really need two hands to steer the car. I travel over 192 miles a day and im very worried about this. I am going to speak with the dealer to see if they will take the car back, i hope you are going to investigate these problems and force toyota to fix the problem before someone gets killed.
There is a problem with the steering in my 2010 toyota corolla le. The car drifts side to side making it hard to keep it in a straight line. I complained immediately to the dealership. They said the steering is acting as designed. I continue to question it every time ihave it serviced.
2010 corolla s i travel through mountain roads and i have noticed that the steering at speeds above 60 mph becomes loose and car wanders in lane.steering also makes noise when parking in steering column.
2010 toyota corolla le - wandering of vehicle while traveling at highway speeds. Alignment is also off.
Steering drift at highways speeds 50 mph + happens off and on as i'm driving down the highway, i hold the steering wheel straight and it will start to merge either left or right, it happens on straight roads and curvy roads.
Car wonders while driving on a straight road or highway, usually about 40 mph or faster, constant feeling of drifting (feels like there is a strong crosswind blowing the car around.)tire pressure is proper as stated on door jam, as well makes no difference in steering if tire pressure is lower or higher.

We believe something punctured the front left wheel of the car when driven down a street and the emergency brake when released did not stop the car. The car skid into parked cars and air bag was not deflated even though it was serviced under the airbag recall. Passenger sideview mirror, right body of car is damaged, side and portion of front and back bumpers became damaged. No out of pocket expenses made. The damaged car sits in our driveway soon to be towed and sold for parts.
My car is in motion on a city street. The other car driver fails to yield the road approriately, caused accident.airbags are not deployed.
I was wondering if any other customer was having problems with their tires, i have had four nail in my tires four different times. My ground affect on my toyota sport is fading the color after one year. The dealer told me it was from taking it through the carwash. I took it through mike's carwash two times and the other times through the toyota carwash at the dealer ship. I had a hole in front floor mat after one year but they replaced all four of them.## vin passed ## toyota corolla 2010##

Feb. 15, 2010to: national highway safety administrationre.:defect in toyota corollai recently reported to both my local toyotal dealership and to toyota motor sales usa (national customer relations, 9001 southwestern ave, dept. Wc11;torrance, ca90509) that the play on the trunk lid on our 2010 corolla was so loose that even though the trunk lid would be pushed all the way up, a sudden gust of wind would send it flying down on whoever was loading items into the trunk.this has happened on several occasions to my wife.on one occasion the lid came down on my wife's head and again on her arm on several different occasions.please see the attached photo showing the effect of the lid being blown down on her arm.the dealer agreed that compared to the trunk lid on my camry, the lid on the corolla did indeed swing too freely and that the cause was a design flaw as the lid was functioning within the manufacturer's specifications .the dealer suggested that i contact toyota.i did that, explained the situation, and was assigned case.nothing has been done regarding this design flaw.perhaps you can convince toyota to reduce the "play" on the trunk lid so that we can actually use the trunk of the car without experiencing injury.
Paint on roof and hood fading and flaking. Red roof now looks white.
Under certain limited conditions, the trunk doesn't hold open by itself. Especially noticeable when parked facing uphill in owner's driveway.owner has unexpectedly been hit in the head several times while retrieving cargo because the trunk just comes down hard from the fully open position.several times when this happens, the latch area of the trunk lid has impacted owner's head.this latch is only covered by a small plastic piece, otherwise it's metal.the owner hasn't been injured, but it has caused them pain each time it happens.owner had it checked at a toyota dealer.they said it occurs because an aftermarket rear spoiler was installed by a prior owner.dealer says this aftermarket spoiler is too heavy, causing trunk not to stay open.dealer offered to remove spoiler for a fee.we've since discovered toyota has issued a tsb that tells dealers to replace one or both torsion bars for this condition.we'd like to nhtsa to review this & see if enough other complaints have been made to consider a recall.
1)front bumper is been replaced 2 on my car as the strip of a remolded tire of a truckthat gets pealed off due to heat while driving on the road hit my car twice and the front bumper gets damaged or broken immediately. It cost me 600$ to fix it 2) it happened to me twice.3)i think that the remolding of tires is to be band or proper process so as it does not seperate.yes and now the tires are made bigger and broader only one instead of two in trailers which is bad.3)it the bumper gets damaged just by a hit does mean that the bumper is weak to save us from a real crash. It is toyota,corolla 2010.

I opened my trunk to place something inside and the trunk closed on me and hurt my back.this happened before and fortunately my granddaughter was able to stop it before it hit my back.this happens often when it is windy outside. The trunk never stays up and this can be very dangerous.
I notice that my trunk doesn't remain up after i open it. This is causing the hood to come down on my head. It is very dangerous. The other problem is that the driver's door opens out too far.

First, the trunk stopped opening from the inside. Also, the vsc off light, check engine light, and traction light all came on at the same time while i was driving and i have no idea why. The gas cap was on tightly, the fuel levels were right, there was no need for an oil change, and the car is only 2 1/2 years old in which i did not do any wreckless driving.
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla last fall but have driven it very little.this is a dangerous car to drive. When driving on the highway the steering requires constant correction. It seems to continuously drift right or left and is very exhausting. I mentioned it to the service mgr. And he said decreasing the tire pressure a little may help.it did not. Toyota should recognize that this is a real and serious problem and address it before there reputation is further damaged.
I'm also making a followup to my original complaint #10302584. These corolla's have a serious built in problem! you (odi) started an investigation in feb. Stating 168 complaints on the steering in 09 and 10 corollas, there are now almost 500!!! 95% of them say the same thing! car wanders, feels like it's windy when it's not, car steers on its own, wanders both left and right, feels like it',hydroplaning, constant correction needed, feels like i don't have control, and on and on and on. Why don't you have toyota send a questionnaire out to corolla owners and ask them how their car drives on the highway? i saw a friend driving one almost identical to mine today and asked him how his handled on the road and he described the same feeling. I suggested he tell the dealer and also file a report on this site. The dealer says toyota is investigating but nothing is happening yet. Couldn't odi speed this up a little. I took mine in at 400 miles and they said nothing was wrong and offered me 14000 trade in against a used camry (i paid 17800) now , at 7000 miles they offer 12500 i'm bleeding bad and don't know what to do. Please help me and other corolla owners. Thanks for listening to my rant.
2010 toyota corolla, purchased jan 2010 wanders greatly at hwy speeds. Requiring constant corrections. Toyota denies problem.
1.driving corolla 2010 on highway speeds above 55 mph, it becomes extremely difficult to control and keep the car steady in line, it feels like i am driving in heavy winds.2. It happens almost every time the car reaches speed 55 mph and above.3. To be safe drive on right most lane and keep enough distance from other vehicles.
I have been taking my corolla to the dealership almost every week since 01/28/2010 and every week i complained about how the car was drifting side to side and how on low windy days i have to fight the steering wheel to keep it in its lane at speeds above 65mph. And every time i take it over there they say "well the car is working to factory standards" and they will send me on my way. I have had my brakes bled and my car alignment done twice and the car only has 2000+ miles on it. So i took the car back to the dealership from where i bought it and they gave me thiscust states vehicle is all over the road at highway speeds like the computer is driving the car on its own ~|~performed health check on all systems. No trouble codes stored. Test drove vehicle on 10 mile trip and ~|~vehicle performed as designed at this time. Please direct customer to toyota at 1-800-331-4331 if they have any other questions. So i took the car back and called the # to them and they said since the tech could not find the problem then there is no problem. Bull. So on 03/01/2010 i took my car back in to the dealership to have someone go on a drive with me and i made sure it was a windy day so they can see how hard it is to keep the car centered in its lane. The mechanic that went with me said oh i see what you are talking about he even had a hard time keeping the car from wondering off. So he said well it could be the tires are not to the right pounds. I said nope i had the air done to factory standards of 35psi all around. So he said he will need the car for over a day and scheduled appt for me to come in i took it back on 03/03/2010 and haven't had my car back since then. They still have my car in the shop as i type. So there is definitely a problem with the car. I feel like i can hurt or even kill someone in the car because of it. I have had more problems with this car and its not even 60 days old yet. Plus i already had the recall done on it too.
Our 2010 toyota corolla wanders all over the road like you are driving in a heavy cross wind. The dealer says it is the road but we drive approx. 3000 miles a month on a lot of different roads and is the same.
I bought a toyota corolla 2010 le on 04/03/2010, and when i drove it on the freeway first time, i was shocked/scared the way was steering/handling. I almost had two accidents with it because of the steering issue. When i drove it on the freeway i saw that the car is loosing balance (the back car shakes), i found stability problems (as if i drive in strong winds), and big steering problems (as i learn to drive a tricky bicycle). To get and maintain an almost control on the car direction i have to focus my actions as my corolla has only two wheels like a bike. I almost act as an equilibrate for a rope dancing. The experience of driving my corolla showed that i have limited control over it, and most control i lost when i had to use sudden brakes at high speed - it was like on the ice. Back jumps and i stir in same direction; back jumps again in the other direction and i change the steering in the other direction too, and so on. These events occur almost every time i drove with speed around 60 miles/hour on the freeways that are not straight. The consequence is that i am afraid to drive my new car because i am not able to control it, and i risk an accident. I went to toyota dealer, they said that they know the situation from other customers too, but nothing they can do about it. Please investigate this issues until is not too late, and people make accidents and injure.thank you.

The contact stated that after repairs, the vehicle would hesitate intermittently when attempting to accelerate from a complete stop or when accelerating while in motion at low speeds.the contact attempted to apply more force to the pedal but the vehicle was hesitant to increase in speed. In addition, the accelerator pedal was modified when repaired under the recall and the contact stated it was difficult to apply pressure to the pedal. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where the contact wasinformed they could install a new accelerator pedal but the dealer was unsure if the repair would correct the failure. The dealer reset the internal computer but did not make any repairs to the pedal itself. The failures continued to recur intermittently. The failure mileage was 3,630 and the current mileage was 7,444. Updated 12/01/10. *ljthe consumer also stated the front of the vehicle wanders all over the road. Updated 12/13/10
As noted on the news about a possible recall about the steering problems on the 2010 toyota corolla.i also own a 2010 corolla and even before the news i had problems keeping the car straight on the road. The condition gets worse at higher speeds and the problem increases when there is less gas in the tank.i took the car to the dealer to check/fix the alignment and it seems to help a little bit but the problem is still there.
I would like to report a technical problem with toyota corolla le 2010,purchased on august 10, 2009 at a dealership: world toyota, 5800 peachtree industrial blvd, atlanta, ga, 30341, usa. The technical problem relates to electric power steering system which compromises stability of the car during driving. Namely, the car does not follow its track and spontaneously steers left or right. As a result of this constant pulling, the driver needs to firmly hold the steering wheel, but even then, it is impossible to control the car to keep it perfectly in track. The car feels even more unstable and pulls from side to side even more prominently when driving in full traffic on highway at a speed higher than 40 mph, such as atlanta, ga, where i live. I first noticed the problem when test driving the vehicle on august 10, 2009, but a sales representative at world toyota suggested that this was due to the electric steering and told me i needed to get used to it. Despite this problem, i still decided to buy the car. Because the car's instability on the road did not improve with time, i had this problem reviewed by toyota service technicians at the world toyota dealership during my 1000 mile maintenance check on september 18, 2009 and 5000 mile check on january 09, 2010. During 1000 mile maintenance check, i was suggested to drive the car until 5000 miles to see whether i would get used to it. During 5000 mile maintenance, i was given to test drive another toyota corolla le 2010 with a newer manufacture date and this car was more stable and held much better on the road. Toyota service technician tested my car as well and acknowledged the problem, however, did not know how to fix it. The alignment was checked on both dates, september 18, 2009 and january 09, 2010, with no identification of possible causes to pulling. At this point, toyota dealership is not doing anything to fix the problem.
Prematurely failing: struts (repaired summer of 2013), water pump (repaired 10/15/13), brakes (repaired 10/15/13), and alternator (yet to be repaired).
My new toyota corolla 2010 - when driving on the highway (60+ mph), the vehicle will all of a sudden start to wander back and forth in the lane, for a few hundred yards. Then as quickly as it started, it stops. The wandering has almost created 4 collisions so far. This needs to be looked at before someone gets seriously hurt, as these problems are happening at hi speeds on the highways.
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. While driving 59 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to accelerate. The vehicle shook violently. The contact stated that the vehicle would lose control, but regain normal function soon after. The contact heard a loud noise at the time of the failure. The failure mileage was 49,000.
Premature wear of front struts. Needed both front struts replaced at 50,000 miles.per the service department at the dealership the front driver side strut was completely blown out.
Since i bought it in october my 2010 toyota corolla base model has been extremely difficult to keep on the road i go over fifty and it feels like a big wind in constantly trying to push me off the road, i pay alot of money for this car and i don't trust it at all, when i stop or attempt to it makes a loud almost abs type sound very often and the brakes are extremely touchy and i feel this car is just a unsafe device what's next these cars are junk and poorly made.

My 2010 corolla wanders in the lane traveling at highway speeds.constantly making corrections to stay in the lane.
We have a new 2010 toyota corolla with about 9,000 miles on it. The steering on this car is "strange"making it unsafe-- it is difficult to keep it in a steady/smooth line when driving on the highway at 55 mph or greater -- you need to make constant minute corrective movements to the steering wheel.at times it seems to drift on it's own left and right - like it's being blown around by a gust of wind - but the wind isn't blowing!
The contact owns a 2010 toyota corolla. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 mph, the front passenger side of the vehicle began to vibrate violently.

Corolla 2010 has major issues being kept in a straight line at speeds over 55 or so.
Letter from senator tester on behalf of constituent re toyota (direct response to billings office)the consumer stated the vehicle would drift out of the lane he was driving in. The vehicle pulled to the left or right at times. During inclement weather, the vehicle was very difficult to steer. At low speeds the vehicle steered fine, but it was highway speeds where there was a problem. The dealer patched a tire and rotated them, but the steering problem continued.another dealer discovered one of thetires had 5 psi more than the other tires, they also made some adjustments to the rear end. The consumer was then advised to put weight in the trunk and to get snow tires. After the work was completed it seemed a little better, but the vehicle still wandered into the next lane. The consumer went back to the first dealer and was told the steering issue was a design problem and there was nothing they could do.
I have a 2010 corolla it constantly sways while driving at freeway speeds. Sometimes i need to hold onto the steering wheel with both hands to keep it from going into another lane. I switched from driving a small vw beetle and was familiar with strong winds causing these problems but when i looked out the window there was no wind all the trees were still and no flags were waving. There has been a couple of times when i really felt the car was going to swerve out of control if i didn't immediately slow down. I also feel a metal grinding sensation with my brakes when i slow down over uneven pavement or go over a speed bump. This doesn't happen every time but in the past 2 months that i've had the car it occurred 6 times. I told the toyota dealership about these problems and they said it couldn't be duplicated and that there was nothing wrong with the car. Which is completely ridiculous there hasn't been a time that i've driven on the freeway and not felt this swaying. They didn't even try to find a problem. They didn't do a thing to help me. Than i heard of other corolla owners having the same problems. So i know it's not just me, there is a problem with my car and they need to recognize they made another mistake.

I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla last fall but have driven it very little.this is a dangerous car to drive. When driving on the highway the steering requires constant correction. It seems to continuously drift right or left and is very exhausting. I mentioned it to the service mgr. And he said decreasing the tire pressure a little may help.it did not. Toyota should recognize that this is a real and serious problem and address it before there reputation is further damaged.

I bought corolla 2010 in oct 2009. I had the problem of it wandering and hard to keep the car in the lane. I took it to dealership and they told me it was alignment problem. After it was there for a day it started wandering in the other direction. Then they told me it could be tire pressure and took it back to the dealership. I still have the same problem and it wanders at speed above 50 mph. Isaw there have been more reports about it and i hope toyota does something about it.

My 2010 toyota corolla le seems to wander randomly left or right. It is difficult to travel in a straight line without frequent adjustment to the steering column. It feels like i am driving on a windy day and the car is being tossed around. Actually, any wind at all only makes the matter much worse. Almost feels like the rear end of the car has a slight fishtailing. This is all most noticeable at 45 mph and above. Local service dept. Could not look at it for three weeks. I will not let my 17 year old daughter drive this car.i have had this car for only six weeks and would surely give it back if i could. Disappointed that i did not get a response to my emails sent to toyota.
My 2010 toyota corolla has been drifting at highway speeds since i purchased the vehicle. If i take my eyes off the road for a second to glance at my rear view mirror or side view mirrors, the corolla will begin to drift to the left or the right. The drifting usually begins around the 40 mph mark. I have taken it to the dealership but they claim that they are not finding anything wrong with the car.

2010 corolla is unstable at speed over approximately 55 mph. The car wanders dangerously to left and right, being particularly vulnerable to any cross wind or turbulence from other vehicles. It is not possible to use any vehicle controls (such as turning on the defroster) while driving at highway speeds without having the car veer suddenly off course. The car feels as if it is missing a suspension component in the front end- there is a dangerous lack of stability at highway speeds. I even purchased new tires after only 2000 miles in an attempt to alleviate the problem, but it is the car and not the tires causing the problem. This car is unsafe at highway speeds.
I bought a new 2010 toyota corolla s and realized that i can't control the steering at speeds over 50mph. This problem was noted, to my salesman,the same day i purchased the car. My whole family, including myself, made a living selling cars. I've driven in many different cars and know when something isn't right. The corolla's steering is dangerous and unsafe to be on the road. The dealership service manager even noted that there is a steering issue, but toyota doesn't have a fix. I talked to a representative at toyota's corporate office, but he told me they can't help until their is a problem. When i drive on the express way the car's steering is unpredictable, unsafe, and defective. I'm forcedto drivethis car because it's my only means of transportation.
1. 2010 toyota corolla s was purchased from a toyota dealer with 8 miles.right after going off the lot, and onto the freeway, car was unstable.even if you hold the steering wheel straight, the car wants to jump left and right randomly.basically it is unstable.2. Car is unstable and requires more than normal concentration and more effort to drive straight, as car does not track straight.3. Vehicle was brought to dealer with approximately 185 miles.test drove with technician, who said it veers slightly right.alignment was done.the front was off by a bit and corrected.but rear of car was out of spec with regards to left and right toe.basically both rear wheels facing towards the left.toyota dealer said they are unable to repair this problem.i bring in a toyota technical service bulletin that addresses on-center steering feel.the document requires alignment done, then power-steering ecu replaced.my ecu is then replaced at the dealership, but alignment in rear is not adjusted, since the dealer said it is not adjustable.they give me back the car with the new ecu even if rear toe is off along with total rear camber.they also say that total rear toe is correct at .38 deg, but even if left and right rear toe is off, as long as total rear toe is good, car is within toyota specifications and tolerances.i do not agree with the statement.if left and right toes are off, then car is not aligned.right rear toe is out of spec by .15 degrees while left rear toe is off by -.09 degrees.i take the car and drive it for 1 day and a half, and the car veers right on the freeway.if it hits a bump on a turn, it usually makes the car want to jump right.basically proving that the rear toe is out of specifications.
Just purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s on july 23, 2010. The steering did not seem right.at one week i went back to the dealer and they gave it an alignment, which did not really improve the steering.it is horrible on the highway and my arms hurt from trying to keep it in the lane.thought it was just me until i started to investigate, and found out all of the other complaints about the same problem.it make you feel like you do not have control of the car.it swerves from side to side. Tired putting more air in the tires, does not help. I have not even made my first payment yet. I have called corporate offices, and am awaiting a response from them. We need to start a class action suit.
I have a toyota corolla 2010,i had it since june 2010, . I went through a major car accident on hw 1 ca @ 8:45 am on tuesday which was a sunny, clear , not foggy nor rainy day (weather condition was perfect),i was driving on 63 mph (normal speed is 65) on the fast left lane and suddenly i felt that the left front tire is veering the car into a different direction actingas if it below up (but it didn't) and my car is veering to the left , my steering wheel is lockedand is not responding at all when trying to change the car directionto the right. There was no way to drive the car in a straight line. The steering wheel failed completely to respond to any attempt to turn it to the right in an attempt to gain control over the car and attempting to drive itin straight line. Brakes as well were not responding. All attempts to stop the car or turn it to the right to avoid bumping the railsand keep it straight in the lane failed. I completely lost control over the car & it started fishtailing in the front. The car didn't stop until it bumped into the guarding rail, at this moment the car just stopped and it took the car more than 20 feed to automatically stop by it self. I failed to stop it.at this moment the car corrected its direction &went in straight line direction scrubbing against the rail completely damaging the entireleft side of the car before it stall. Then all the dash board lights and car sounds went on and the car stalled. The car was not in a drivable condition so i had to tow it away. I have a witnesswho described my accident saying that my car kept swerving to the left & was ambiguouslyuncontrolled, he was the one that took care of me after the car bumped the rail.this accident is alife threatening accident not only for me but also for others on the hw. I was lucky it happened on my way home after i dropped off my son to school ,the two car seats i had in the car were damaged,the car damage was estimated by $10,000. I suffer from a severe pain.

I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla s on 11-7-2009.on the test drive i complained to the salesman that the steering felt strange.it seemed to have a center spot and then any left or right turn would cause a minor pull either direction as if the steering turned on.the salesman said it was the electric steering on all the new cars.that was a slow speed test drive.after the purchase i got on the interstate and was shocked to feel the steering feel as if i were going around a semi tractor trailer rig and being pushed around by the wind, but yet i was not near a vehicle.it seemed like loose steering or tire squirm.when i got back from my trip i took it to the local toyota service center and asked if there is an adjustment on the power steering or if there is an issue with the tires.to both questions my service advisor said no.on another trip on the interstate, it all of a sudden started acting like it was going to fish tail swinging back and forth, like i was ridding on balloon tires, or without sidewalls.i quickly slowed down.in cross winds or going around a semi it is worse.at my 5,000 service, i asked if there are any steering or tire issues, and my advisor still said no, but part of the service was to rotate the tires, and this has seemed to lessen the squirm.i now have 7,000 miles on my 2010 toyota corolla s.

On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.

Today this happened with some rain on the road care lost traction pulled left hit a transfer truck - spun around in the road into a hill and rolled.

Purchased a new 2010 corolla. Driving home from work last week, i had two service lights on (my car has 1400 miles on it). The steering in the car seemed "loose" as i drove home, but when i went to turn on my street, the steering wheel did not turn and the abs failed. I hit a curb on the opposite side of the road damaging a strut and an alloy wheel. My local dealer, lakeland toyota, told me it was not their problem but that i needed to figure out how to pay for the repairs. They told me that they had no idea why those two warning lights were on.i am currently trying to work with toyota corporate to get this resolved in a manner that i will feel safe driving the car.kind of hard to do when they refuse to accept that there is a problem.
First, the trunk stopped opening from the inside. Also, the vsc off light, check engine light, and traction light all came on at the same time while i was driving and i have no idea why. The gas cap was on tightly, the fuel levels were right, there was no need for an oil change, and the car is only 2 1/2 years old in which i did not do any wreckless driving.
I have felt that there is a problem with the brakes of my 2010 toyota corolla since shortly after i bought it.the brakes vibrate or pulsate without warning.it seems that the abs is activated for no reason.i am not stopping short and the road has not been slippery .i brought the car to the dealer and they claimed that there is nothing wrong with the brakes.another problem i have noticed with the brakes is that they seem to grind when i am braking over bumpy surfaces.it happens with out warning, i never know when it will occur.i called the dealer and the mechanic said it is just the abs, nothing to worry about.the problem seem similar to the prius brake complaints.finally, i noticethat sometimes as i am stopping that the brakesseem to slip a little but then take hold.

Toyota of kingsport2525 east stone drivekingsport, tn 37660on november 27, 2009, i purchased a 2010 toyota corolla, from a 3rd party for my ex-wife of gate city, virginia. During the test drive, the 3rd party and i discussed the accelerator problem that was being reported in the news and on many internet websites. He assured me that there was not a problem. He also told me that the corolla had never in its entire history been the subject of a recall. I later found out this to be untrue. There is also a problem with the steering on this car. It wanders at higher speeds and will not hold a straight line. This is a serious and dangerous defect, especially for a 60-year old woman. You cannot take your eye off the road even for a split second or you may find yourself in the next lane or running off the road. This is highly unacceptable. According to the news, this steering defect has been reported to toyota on many occasions. My ex wife is on disability. She had major heart surgery in february, 2009. She had two heart valves replaced, two heart artery by-passes and had to have a graft on her heart aorta. She has many other disabilities to deal with. This was her first new car in 13 years. She previously drove a toyota tercel for 13 years - a good car. Together, we have owned a camry, tercel, tundra, tacoma and now this corolla. But i can assure you that this will be the last toyota i will ever buy. Toyota has know about these defects but still continued to sell them to the public. The word that comes to mind is fraud. I am at a loss as what to do. I am also on disability and cannot afford to replace this car for her and i worry each day that she has to drive this car. Please respond in writing how you plan to address this situation. As each day passes, the chance of her being involved in an accident grows greater. You will receive a copy of this letter by certified mail.
I deliver for doordash and i was making my third delivery of the morning. As i pulled into a parking lot to park my car i tried to out my car into park like i had been all morning except this time i couldn't put my car into park. After i finished the delivery i went back out to my car to get back on the road and i couldn't take my car out of park. It felt like something was jammed and the gear stuck would barely budge. My first instinct was to look online to see if this has happened to other cars like mine and many articles popped up of people experiencing the same thing happening to their car. My car has zero problem with the transmission, gear box or anything in the past and it's never made any odd noises either. I believe that this was a problem with the car and not something that i caused.

The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.
To toyota :sending out an interim recall notice #16v-340 saying you are preparing a remedy is not satisfactory this recall has been ongoing for months and a remedy should have already been completed. Toyota had plenty of time to prepare this remedy. Advising owners not to drive vehicle with passengers in front is certainly not conducive when you only have one vehicle to use. You should provide another vehicle in the meantime.
Takata recall
I have owned my new 2010 corolla for six months.today, my technician found the crank sensor was leaking oil.toyota dealer will examine my car this evening.i see that in 2006, this toyota part was recalled on the echo.i am suspicious that this later model is failing in the same way.
I own a 2010 toyota corolla. On several occasions, when i apply the brake, there is a shuddering feeling and sound before the braking hooks in. I would say this has happend about 10 times in the 6 months i have owned the car. In light of the other braking problems, i am more and more concerned about this one. I plan to discuss this to with toyota when i take my car for the other breaking and accelerator repairs. However, in light of all of the problems with the new cars, what is it going to take before the dot insists that there be a buyback of these 2009-1010 cars, which are obviously full of problems. Where will it end? more accidents? i want my money back.
As i was turning off a main road to a store parking lot my vehicle begain to accelerate after i removed my foot from the brake. I was going about 10mph at the time. I was able to quickly stop the car and turn it off. At this time, i will not allow anyone in my family to drive this vehicle. I am an engineer and there is no question in my mind that this vehicle was accelerating on its own after i removed my foot from the brake and i was driving on a road with no grade (flat road).
Driver side window switch is not working good. When using it to pull down driver side window is being scratched up due to i think lack of lubricant. Window switch works but is making marks on my windo and i am scared it will eventually break it.
Just recalled 3 times, engine light has been on forever

In an faux-article ad in florida today, a local florida space coast daily newspaper on 2/12, a local toyota dealer states that: "every vehicle on the dealerships lot is fully qualified for sale.any needed repairs have been made..."it goes on to state: "in the meantime, sales continue on toyota's full line of vehicles.those affected by the recall were fixed quickly, thanks to swift delivery of needed parts by toyota."the ad then explains how owners of affected vehicles that are currently being driven can make arrangements to have them fixed "within the next 90 days". This is outrageous!toyota is making statements that the customer comes first, the ceo looks like he's about to fall on his sword... Yet they are repairing vehicles on the dealership's lot to prepare them for possible sale before they repair customer's vehicles that are being driven every day???that really makes it seem like toyota's first priority is its customer's safety and satisfaction, huh? my mother-in-law drives a 2010 corolla.i called the dealer she purchased it from and asked if they were selling new corolla's at significant discounts.they assured me that they were.i asked about the recall situation, and was informed that if the car i selected hadn't been repaired yet, they would take care of it while i waited.i then asked if my relatives could bring their corolla in for repair and was told: "no, we are working on camry's first.we only have enough parts to fix the corollas we have on the lot."how can they fix inventory before addressing customer vehicles???
Car would start then driving at 10mph the car stalls and the dash lights illuminate the dashboard. Put the car in park and restart with no problem but if somebody was behind me it would've caused an accident.

I will start by saying that i have a toyota corolla 2010.on friday september 13,2016 while i was driving in a street about 20/30 mph my car started accelerating by itself, i tried to stop by pressing the brake, but the car kept going, then i moved the handle on parking, the car wouldn't respond until i pull the hand brake. I immediately called toyota and explained to them what happen.quickly they sent a tow truck to pick up my car to see what was wrong. They gave me a loaner for the day. The person at the dealer told me they will contact me the next day and we could take it from there.nobody called so around 3pm i called asking they said they haven't hear from corporation and they didn't know. I ask about the loaner car. They said not to worry about it. The same thing happens the next day. I called they say not to worry about the car and that they will call me if they have any news on my car. On friday around 4:50 the service manager called me and said that toyota corporation had concluded that there is nothing wrong with the car. They said i could pick up my car and pay for the rental car and the inspection of the car. I would like to know if any of you or know someone who had something similar happened. I am terrified to drive the car and so frustrated the toyota had decided that there's nothing wrong with the car. I don't know what to do about it. I have grandkids who gets in the car also my job requires me to drive patients in my car.
"takata recall" i was in an accident in my 2010 toyota corolla exiting a major interstate on 07/07/2017. The off ramp had a very sharp curve where i lost control (possibly a failure in the stability control system?) and was traveling at around 45mph. I went into a spin and the left rear of my car hit the guardrail, spinning out still my car then hit the guardrail head-on causing the front end to collapse into the motor cavity. The airbags did not deploy causing bruising to my shoulder and abdomen areas. My neck and back were injured causing me to be immobile for a couple of weeks. I have had cat-scans and mri's trying to find out what my injuries are. I have to go to pain management to deal with the everyday pain and my life has been affected greatly. I informed toyota about the airbags and they seemed very concerned. The are investigating the issue and sent out a company called bosch to download information from the cdr box. I am still waiting on toyota's answer to this problem. I was never aware of this recall as i had purchased the car pre-owned from a toyota dealership october of 2015. I also reported the airbag lights going off and on along with other electrical problems to two different toyota dealerships along with allstate insurance company, my provider.
As i was driving down a slight decline driveway my car suddenly accelerated to around 20 or more miles.the only way i was able to stop is by driving it on the curb and onto the sidewalk.

Can't sell it, can't trade it, stuck with driving it. A great first impression, let me tell you. Toyota should be mandated to refund our money 100% in full for knowingly selling defective products.

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.
1. Regular driving under normal condition, sometimes for several minutes, sometimes for a few seconds.2. Speed control does not seem to be consistent. Rpm meter would go above normal 2000 revs per minute even when the car is in neutral.3. Was repaired by dealer as part of the gas pedal recall. The problem continues.4. I do not think it has to do with the gas pedal, it appears to be a problem with the throttle control as the rpm meter clearly shows the revs are way higher than normal.in fact, after the gas pedal recall repair, our 4 months car now burns more gas than before.
In november of 2009 i purchased a new toyota corolla sport and within 2 days noticed the tachometer racing even when the car was in neutral. I also noticed that when i would take my foot off the gas and press in the clutch the tachometer would accelerate as much as 2000 rpm and stay there.i have taken my car back to the toyota dealership where it was purchased three times in 2009 and once in 2010 regarding unexplained acceleration. Even when i am not in the car and the car is idling all of a sudden the engine suddenly accelerates from .6 on the tachometer to 6.4 on the tachometer. The dealership says they can't replicate the issues and have advised me not to drive the car. When i took the vehicle in the last time i had 5 recording on my cell phone where you can clearly see the tachometer over 6,000rpm with no one in the vehicle. They have told me they can't help me at this time. I am concerned about how long this action will take as i need my car.

After the incident, i called their customer service in ca.their response, oops i should have gotten a letter but admitted none was sent.they will contact my dealer. 2 observations about the experience, if my hard braking did not work the car would have kept accelerating, the surge was powerful.also, the engine did not rev, the car just seemed to get a signal to accelerate to a certain speed. Yes, the experience was scary and dangerous.before, i was willing to give toyota the benefit of the doubt, but it's hard to see how my gas pedal would get stuck after 240 driven miles.please, do your job.toyota should permanently take back any care experiencing this acceleration. These carsshould be permanently off the road.

I am the owner of a 2010 toyota corolla, whose vin number is: [xxx]. That car had a low mileage when i brought to germain toyota in naples, florida, to fix any problem at that time that had caused the "engine light" to appear on the dash. I was told that the "gas cap" was the problem and that i needed to replace it; i followed their recommendation. But, one day after the same light appeared again.disappear; therefore, i decided not to come back for that same thing. Recently, in several occasions the car suddenly stopped working while i was driving it both in local and highway 75 without any warning or sign that such thing was going to happen: ?the gas pedal just goes to zero, that means the pressure went quickly and suddenly to no pressure, and three lights are shown on the dash.? thank god, i am still alive! i took the car to germain toyota, they had urged me to replace the "battery," which i did. The problem resurfaced the day after. The second time, they asked me to replace the "ecu," which i did. That cost me more than $800, close to $900. The three lights reappeared after two days. I came brought the car back to germain toyota, they told me that it was another thing that caused the problem. Last week, the first week of december, i brought it back to them for the same lights, and they told me to replace again the "gas cap," i paid another money, but the same problem continues to go on and on and persist every week. The dealer refuses to acknowledge and accept that it is a factory defect. Those things happened both in streets and highway i-75.i do not feel safe to continue to drive it anymore, and i do not want to sell it to place someone else's life in peril. Therefore, i ask your department for help. I cannot keep on spending almost every week for the same problem. I thank you in advance!information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).

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.
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.

On monday july 29,2013 while i was set on 70 mph cruise control, my toyota corolla suddenly surged forward. I have no idea how fast it made the car go ,but i have never been in anything going that fast. I had to take the car into the grass median to avoid hitting another car when the brakes would not stop my car. We still flew down the grass median like a speed boat hitting waves, we were bouncing, the car was bouncing,i had severe cramps and stabbing across my lower kidney area when we finally came to a stop. I had to hold the brake pedal to the floor for what seemed like eternity. Before it finally stopped.i reported the incident in great detail to toyota corporate and my case was #1307291802.(this case # is no longer valid)i was told at that time if i felt safe, i could take it to my dealer in d.m.,iowa where i leased the car in 2010, or if i felt unsafe, i could take it to adams toyota in lee's summit, missouri. Then, my daughter-in-law called adams on my behalf and they gave her an entirely new case number because the first rep who took the report did not understand there was damage .my new case # is 1308011967.i felt i never want to be in that corolla again, so i did take it to adams and they provided me with a scion rental to get back to home and work in iowa.toyota has inspected the car and has up to 30 days to give me their report.i am to receive a copy of the data imaging extracted from the black box also.

Approximately one week ago, my 2010 corolla surged forward approximately 6-8 feet after i placed in park in my work parking lot. The tachometer went to above 2000 rpms, and the cars speed wentover 20 mph before i was able to jam on the emergency brake. My foot was not on the brake or the gas pedal. I almost hit a tree. My head was thrust backwards. Three hours later the paramedics had to come to my office and rush me to the hospital as i had a tia as a result. This is the third acceleration incident with my vehicle since february 12th.the dealership has even had a specialist look at my car, and they said nothing is wrong with it. I brought the car back to the dealership today because of the above incident. The general service manager said to me quote unquote "we can find nothing wrong with your vehicle, and can not verify your complaint. You have brought the car to us four times for this same acceleration problem and there is nothing wrong with your car. We have not charged you any of these times.if you bring it to us again for the same problem, we are going to have to bill you for our time. They also charged me for the rental car today. He also stated that the media is blowing this way out of proportion, and that there is nothing wrong with any of the toyota vehicles. He said the problem is one of two things. I asked him what those two things were. He stated that they are the drivers are bad drivers and the other is it is fraud. So i said are you implying i am a lier or a bad driver and he refused to answer. I then said i am neither of the two and that i resented the implication to both. I told him my car is a death mobile and unsafe to drive, and also that i had been hurt 3 or 4 times already.
I have 2010 toyota corolla (vin# [xxx] ) purchased on oct 31 2009 from sansoneautomall, nj. There is a problem with the steering column initially which started with some unique sound, then from feb 2010 i was seriously facing steering freeze (will get harden) only 15-20% of steering moves when in 0' speed, for this i have visited my dealer service center 3 times but there is no use. Only with lot of disappointment and arguments saying "what is the reason to buy a brand new car to get problems" i was requesting to solve my problem. They simply said, there is nothing we can do if you have no other mean to commute its upto you and if you want you call toyota head quarters for this. I even spent lot of time in calling main toyota nr but simply i get voice message that "there is huge volume of call waiting please wait". I really wonder when i/anyone buy a car from dealer and if they cannot receive me assist me properly "where from i get the justice????". Recently i found two more new problems they are: in a slope road car picks-up acceleration and maintains speed as if it is cruised and once i apply break after a while the speed comes to normal position other prob- fuel indicator stuck up to full level indi' even the fuel is low. With this i'm day by day getting depressed as i spent quite lot of savings (money) on the car to avoid any hassles buying a used car, but unfortunately its a disaster to me. I request to provide me needed solution to fix my depressing situation.information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6).
2010 toyota corolla accelerator was stuck at 40 miles per hour.just missed hitting another car on the entrance ramp in front of me.this car was supposedly fixed by westbury toyota in westbury, ny on february 9th.the car was brought back to the dealer today, march, 10,2010.where the dealer told me that owners are making this whole problem up, and tried to charge me $100,00 for an electronic diagnostics test on the car.he also refused to give me a loaner car or rental car at toyota's cost while they checked the car out for a sticking accelerator pedal problem because the recall "fix" was already done on this vehicle.obviously the "fix" did not work at all.i am afraid to drive this vehicle because it could happen again with fatal results.
My toyota 2010 corolla has been recalled once and the toyota dealer said that they did something on the brake, but i told them the problem with my new toyota 2010 corolla is the noise sound whenever i push the accelerator pedal. Especially whenever i push the accelerator pedal it makes a bell sound. I reported to toyota dealer 3 times and they said it is air sound. I am not engineer but i think i know what is difference between air sound and bell sound. Now the toyota sent me and said that another possibility of recall on the accelerator pedal. I think there is a real problem on this car. I am scare driving the new car. What can i do? i asked the toyota dealer and they said that "nothing we can do." in terms of safety, i really concern this is not justmy problem but our citizen's safety problem. The worst thing is when i drive on the high way. It is like almost 15 years old car. The sound like a cracking and i really does not want to drive my new toyota 2010 corolla on the high way. Now they just sent me a memo and it said that there is a possibility of recall on the accelerator pedal problem. What can i do?

I own a 2010 toyota corolla, which my 19 year old daughter drives, which is involved in the gas pedal recall.she also describes an steering problem -- difficulty keeping the car from veering, has to hold steering wheel tight to keep it straight, describes it like car is sliding on ice.when i asked our toyota dealer service dept advisor about it he said to check the tire inflation.i now see that this is a complaint from others. I am concerned that this car is not safe for her to drive!she drives it to and from college on interstate 95 and says this problem occurs at all speeds, especially 45 and over.

I was driving my 2010 toyota corolla down the road. When i began to approach a red light at intersection, i applied brakes to slow vehicle down.instead of slowing down, however, the car began to rapidly accelerate.this required me to pass two vehicles waiting at red light in order to avoid collision.remembering what toyota co said to do when their vehicles are speeding out of control, i put car in neutral and continued to apply brakes, which had no effect whatsoever.i continued to speed down double-lined road, passing vehicles in my lane.then when other vehicles were coming in other lane in my direction, i was forced to slam full speed into vehicle in front of me in my lane.this caused my vehicle and that vehicle to roll over.when my family and i had first heard of the recalls with toyota in february of 2010, we immediately took car to toyota dealer in fl where we vacationed for the winter.we were assured that since our vin# indicated it was japanese-made, we were not part of the sticking accelerator recall. They told us to remove driver-side floormat anyway, which we immediately did.as you can see, we took every precaution possible, and as my car was careening out of control, i did everything i was supposed to do and it did not matter.and please do not insult victims of these tragedies by indicating that it is possibly driver error.clearly there is something major wrong here and these vehicles need to be taken off the road.
My toyota corolla 2010 car has manual transmission. When i drove at about 35mph on city street and hit brake pedal, engine suddenly roared to 8000rpm. I depressed the clutch fully, turned off engine, hit hard the brake pedal,turned left to median; the car hit hard the median curb and stopped partly in left lane. After several attempts on pedals and turned on engine, it still roared in the first several tries. The car eventually worked normally after 10 minutes and no injury happened. I never let the engine run over 5000rpm even when i tested the car and engine; my maximal running rpm is about 3000. This 8000rpm should not be from my operation. I was not convinced on 'stick pedal" or "floor mat" cause for this case.the sequence "turned off engine, braked" might be good to "braked to stop and turned off engine" because it is too hard to brake with engine off. But, when you hear the scary 8000rpm roaring engine, the first reaction is turn it off.i have scheduled an appointment with dealer.
My 2010 toyota corolla continues to have acceleration issues. Now it accelerates with the cruise control on to speeds over 100/110 mph.i had to drive my car from vermont to california, and used my cruise control for the first time. The speed limit was 75 to 80 mph in areas and i set the cruise control to 72. The next thing i new, the car suddenly lurched forward on its own & went completely out of control. It went to speeds of 100- 120 mph within 1-2 minutes andi could hardly control the car. I have been in 3-4 acceleration incidents with this vehicle already and been injured (the reports i have already filed with your agency this past year). This vehicle is going to kill someone.there is an electrical or engine problem with these toyotas, no matter what the nhtsa, the feds, or toyota states.it is not the way americans are driving ! don't insult ourintelligence. How many more innocent victims have to get hurt. All we are asking is for toyota to take these cars back and replace them with a safe car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!that is what is fair to the consumer. That is what the lemon law is for. Yet why does no one listen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am writing on behalf of my mother who was injured in an automobile accident on november 16, 2010. My mother was driving a loaner car provided by a toyota dealership located in suffolk county, new york. When my mother was driving the vehicle off the car lot, the vehicle accelerated and she hit an oncoming vehicle. My mother surffered a fractured sternum and was hospitalized for 4 days. On february 8, 2011, the vehicle was inspected for defects by toyota motor sales, usa. The conclusion was that the vehicle was operating properly and, there was no malfunctions noted. Prior to the inspection by toyota, my nephew located this same vehicle on line, using the vin#, it was noted that the vehicle had previously been involved in an accident, and the accident was caused by acceleration problems. I am asking that your agency investigate this matter. It appears that there is some discrepancy between the current inspection and the previous facts/accident associated with this vehicle. I originally sent this letter to you agency on april 13, 2011. Your agency responded on august 31, 2011 with the following notation, nvs-216 mec, ref. No. 10397716.
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 problemliving 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 thatmy 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.
I have a 2010 toyota corolla that is part of the accelerator pedal reinforcement bar recall/installation. I have noticed another problem that appears to also involve the accelerator. This vehicle has a 5 speed manual transmission. The problem occurs in both 3rd and 4th gear. This problem is not consistent meaning it is not always noticed every time i drive, i would maintain that it occurs at least 50% of the time however. Problem: i attempt to maintain a constant speed for instance in 3rd gear at 30 mph, the vehicle feels as if it wants to speed up, i then remove some pressure from the accelerator, the vehicle then slow by jerking, i then attempt to accelerate and the vehicle jerks again,bottom line is i can not maintain a constant speed. The road conditions do not matter, flat, hill, bumpy, smooth, wet dry, 30 mph, 31 mph, 32, mph etc. I cannot maintain a constant speed in 3rd and 4th gear. I am not sure of an approximate date, it has happened numerous times since i purchased the vehicle in august of 2009. I will just enter a random date below.
While merging into the left lane on the meadowbrook pkwy., my 2010 toyota corolla with (8,300 miles at the time), accelerator stuck. This was the first time this happened. I panicked, looked down, and saw the pedal stuck all the way down. After a few seconds i jammed on the brakes, & the pedal released. I do not believe this was due to the floor mat. My mat was not on the accelerator. This car from the beginning had "poor pick-up". By that, i mean it was very slow while trying to merge onto pkwy's to the point that i always had to floor it. I also from time to time heard a very slight click while stepping on the acc. Pedal. But for the first time, it actually stuck on me.i owned a 2005 corolla before this car, & it was noting like this current car. I also owned a 1999 camry, & a 2003 4-runner. Until now, i never had a problem.
I bought a toyota corolla 2010 le on 04/03/2010, and when i drove it on the freeway first time, i was shocked/scared the way was steering/handling. I almost had two accidents with it because of the steering issue. When i drove it on the freeway i saw that the car is loosing balance (the back car shakes), i found stability problems (as if i drive in strong winds), and big steering problems (as i learn to drive a tricky bicycle). To get and maintain an almost control on the car direction i have to focus my actions as my corolla has only two wheels like a bike. I almost act as an equilibrate for a rope dancing. The experience of driving my corolla showed that i have limited control over it, and most control i lost when i had to use sudden brakes at high speed - it was like on the ice. Back jumps and i stir in same direction; back jumps again in the other direction and i change the steering in the other direction too, and so on. These events occur almost every time i drove with speed around 60 miles/hour on the freeways that are not straight. The consequence is that i am afraid to drive my new car because i am not able to control it, and i risk an accident. I went to toyota dealer, they said that they know the situation from other customers too, but nothing they can do about it. Please investigate this issues until is not too late, and people make accidents and injure.thank you.

While driving a 2010 toyota corolla le the steering wheel unexpectedly jerked away from my control. In addition, the power steering and braking system is making strange sounds, such as hissing, pings and cracks. I took the car to toyota dealership and mechanic stated it is probably the electrical system. He also stated that toyota will probably recall car due to complaints with powersteering.

When applying the brakes, my car will rev up. Especially when i'm going down hill. Another concern is that my car will make a 2-3 second rattling noise upon starting up. It only makes this noise once in a while and it is coming from the engine. Another issue i'm having is the car's check engine light, track light and vsc off light coming on simultaneously on any rainy day and staying on for several days after it has stopped raining. I avoid driving at fast speeds when its rainy because obviously the car is very unstable. My driver side window wont open or close and very cold days and other days it makes a weird noise. I just bought this car used and it has about 79k miles on it.

I drive toyota corolla ls 2010. I was driving to work today approximately with 45m/h. I was getting ready to take an exit from the highway, i saw couple cars were stopped in the middle of the exit approximately meter away from me. I decided to reduce the speed and getback to the highway(to get around them so i can take my exit. I hit my brake slightly to slow down my car did not even change speed, i tried couple times nothing happened. Then i decided to step on the brake all the way my car did not change the speed at all it was going at the same speed. My car was traveling straight road for 7-8 seconds, then i had to make a quick decision so i will not hit the cars that was onfront of me(they were stopped in the middle of the road for some reason) because i was getting too close. I decided to get back to highway so i willnot hit anyone. But after i tried to get back to thehighwayi totally lost my control of the car. The car moved with no control for several seconds then i and up in the middle of the highway. I was lucky everyone was behind me and they stayed away from my car. I just took my car to be fixed from the sticking acceleration problem. I believe my breaks did not worked at that point and my car was moving with the same speed . Afterward i was able to move my car and my brakes were working. I am worried to drive that car. I do not feel safe. I could of hurt the lady and her kids that were behind me.
Driving 2010 toyota corolla manual trans on interstate on 8/2/10 at 2:30 p.m. Had cruise control on going 70 mph. Engaged clutch, shifted to neutral and braked in preparation to stop for traffic jam ahead.brake did not engage and vehicle continued at 70 mph without touching accelerator. Continued attempts to brake, downshift, turn off cruise control with no decrease in speed. Initially unable to downshift but then did get into lower gear but with no resulting decrease in speed, nor did the engine make any noise indicating that i had downshifted. I was able to get onto shoulder where i continued to go 70 mph.i then got off at an exit that had an incline.part way up the hill felt something disengage and the car slowed- not just due to the incline i think.i was then able to put on emergency brake and the car stopped.after several minutes i tried the brakes again and they worked.i did not reengage the cruise control after this. Please note that this occurred after i had taken the car in for both toyota recommended recalls regarding the floor mats and putting a modification in the gas pedal. When i went in for recalls i asked about placement of a computer brake override system and was first told that fix was not yet available, then told it was not relevant to my car, and, after the above event told again that toyota did not yet have the technology available to do this fix on corollas.the dealership have thus far been unpleasant and suggesting that i might not be telling the truth.

When needing to accelerate the car takes off like a jet rocket when the pedal is pressed. The car seems to be out of control and shaking violently. This happens usually on highway when going above 50. Feels very unsafe. This is a used car i bought. This happens on a regular basis.
On monday (march 1st) toyota service called me and told me that according to toyota engineers' report, there is nothing wrong with the gas pedal and they said there is nothing to worry about the car. Toyota's official explanation is 'operating as designed, the ecm will command high idle at times for proper emissions system operation'this explanation does not make sense since there is a serious safety issue here;i am driving the car in the 5th gear and around 3000 rpm. When i need a sudden stop, i let go the gas pedal and hit the break. The ecm commands high idle even i hit the breaks; the pistons are still working (the engine is still running in gear) with 3000 rpm so i am not able to slow down or stop. This is a serious safety problem.

We have a 2010 toyota corolla. We bought it for our daughter to commute to college. It was purchased in may 2009 from freedom toyota in harrisburg, pa. After questioning her about any problems with the gas pedal, she said the 'stuck pedal syndrome'happened to her also this past fall. It was taken care of by a dealer in allentown, pa. She then also mentioned that the steering wheel 'jerks out of her hand' when driving. This has happened to her more than once. The dealer in allentown was told of this, along with the fact that she had a problem with her driver side window not rolling down when the switch was activated. This happened to her once. This dealer could not duplicate the 2 above mentioned other problems. I told her she is to document any future issues with this car. I am estimating the incident dates. She said they took place in the fall semester. I do not have the information available as to what her speed was at the time the steering wheel had a habit of jerking out of her hand. I do know that there is highway commuting involved along with non highway driving involved.

I was driving a rental 2010 toyota corolla in siesta key, fl. I came to a stop on a busy downtown street on a friday night. As i sat at a complete stop with my foot on the brake as pedestrians were crossing, the car unexpectedly accelerated forward. I did not have my foot on the gas pedal & as this happened, i held my foot firmly on the brake to avoid hitting the pedestrians. Luckily, i was able to hold the car back until the acceleration ended.this happened before the problem with toyota acceleration was made public.i reported this problem to the enterprise car rental agency in port charlotte fl, where i rented it, but they did not seem concerned.it wasn't until a week later that this story was in the news. I called the nhtsb to file a complaint, i'm filing this complaint again after hearing the gov't response to the study of this problem. From personal experience, i know for a fact thisis not correct. This car i drove did not have the pedal stick or floor mat problem. It definitely accelerated completely on it's own without the pedal being depressed.if needed , i may be able to locate the vin from my rental receipt.

While traveling at various speeds as low as 50 mph, the vehicle would veer to the right. Also, the keyless remote, which also acts as a vehicle locator, would only operate intermittently.

Car bolts when parking, taking off back or forward, from dead start or taking off from lights, stop signs etc.has done this for yrs.now.son drove car and mentioned how awful that was and i never mentioned it to him.friend did not believe me and tried it for one block.said it was dangerous and horrible.i am sick of this happening and need to have it investigated.i am a very patient person but this is not good.happens every time i drive it.
On july 6, 2010, i was driving on i-95 south near the ives dairy rd. Exit.i drive a toyota corolla '10 le.i was going between 65-70 mph and was in the next to last lane.at approximately 6:45am, the car's rpm jumped from 2000-3000 to 5000-6000.at this point, i took my foot off the gas pedal...the car slowed down automatically on its own.then, the rpm's jumped back down to 2000-3000.i had to cross three lanes in order to pull over.while i was trying to pull over, the car was going very slow, but the rpm's were jumping back and forth between 2000-3000 to 5000-6000.this occurred while my foot was off the gas pedal and while it was hovering over the brake pedal.i did not press the brakes because i did not want to come to a full stop in the middle of fast moving traffic on i-95.this event occurred a total of three times before i was able to pull over and turn off the car.the sound the car was making was as if i were to put the car in neutral and floor the gas pedal.i had not done any of this during the incident.i turned off the engine for 10 minutes, and i restarted the car.i slowly made my way to my parents house nearby.
This is the second time i am contacting you regarding a complaint with my 2010 corolla. I first called the nhtsa 800 number with this written complaint and was told i would receive a hard copy in two weeks (i have yet to receive it).so once again i am putting this complaint in writing, so i have proof that it was filed and sent. I hope that something gets done with it once and for all. The complaint is regarding toyota's new pedal recall part. It does not correct the acceleration problem. My car accelerated over 80 mph on feb.12,2010. Toyota put in the recall pedal that morning after i brought the car there.on the way home from work on feb 12, the car exhibited more acceleration issues. That was when i called to report it with the nhtsa. The car then accelerated again on feb15 with the new"pedal recall in". I was driving up a long onramp onto the interstate at approx. 35-40 mph, and the car took off to over 80 mph. I was injured. I called again to your agency to report this on feb15th. I got the car back from toyota on feb 19th. They said "the car was fine. It is normal for corollas to accelerate to 80 mph". That is total bull! the car's pedal started sticking on sunday, february 21. This called more rpm & acceleration problems with the car. Also the brakes are going down to the floor. The car has gone thru a 5 way intersections stop light and a stop sign. I have had to use the emergency brake to stop the car.
All i remember is feeling scared..and began to pray...as the vehicle accelerated to uncontrollable speeds, and not being able to stop..

At speeds over 50 mph the 2010 corolla s has steering wander - does not hold center very well - constantly have to correct direction to keep it straight - gets tiring after a while - just figured there was nothing i could do about it so i just lived with problem until reading an article about the nhtsa checking into problem so i told [xxx]in service dept.at dry ridge toyota in ky. About problem ( oct - 2013 ) and he saidhe would check into it and see if toyota would offer a fix - no response from toyota after over 6 months its now ( may - 2014 )i have checked back every month with [xxx] but he says still nothing from toyota - so im now filing this complaint with nhtsa.......... Also the speed control jerks car very hard as it reengages while going up a hill sometimes approx. 25 mph to 45 mph ......... Also the antilock brakes cause the front end of the car to jump up and down when trying to stop on slick rainy or snow roadsat slower speeds.

I am driving my car going approx. 45 - 55miles a hour when suddenly the check engine light comes on. When this occurs the car gradually begins to slow down and will not allow me to accelerate. I can press the pedal down but the car does not read that i am pressing the pedal. Stability control light begins to blink and car gradually comes to a full stop. When i pull over the rpms are revving above 1 rpm but i am not pressing the gas. This has been going on and the dealer simply told one time i needed a new battery. I bought it from them. They said your alternator is bad and i replaced it and check engine and stability light come on again. I shouldn't have so many problem with a car that was bought brand new and is not even 2yrs old.

At approx 11:30 pm on july 15th 2016, my fianc, myself and 2 of our friends were heading home from downtown miami on i-95. 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

Extremely worried after the news regarding the sudden acceleration of toyota cars. I purchased toyota corolla 2010 recently and i am asking if i have the right to return it since toyota didn't solve the acceleration problem yet and halted the sale of corolla 2010. This car is the only car we have and whenever i am driving it now i am so worried about my kids and my family being in a car that may have acceleration problems at any time. Also, i have another concern that my car jump fast after each stop and the break response should be faster.
As i was coming downhill on steep mt. Helix and stepped on the brakes, the car accelerated instead of reducing the speed, at that moment i could clearly hear the rotation actually increasing. I had to press it harder and control the wheel to get it to reduce the speed. This has happened 3 other times while driving downhill in the 2 months i have owned this 2010 corolla. The next morning i took my car to the dealership and waited for about 1 hour for the car to be inspected andthe pedal accelerator recall issue fixed, but the service staff told me that the brakes were fine and they had run out of the recallparts. They could not give me a time table when the parts were going to arrive. I also contacted 2 other dealerships later that day, and the only answer i got was that " we were all in the same boat", nobody knew when said parts were expected to arrive.
As i was transitioning from a stop to a slow start, the vehicle accelerated suddenly from 0 rpm to 5 rpm. I was able to slam on brakes to stop the vehicle but i almost crashed into another vehicle in the process. I was crossing a intersection - on a leveled street
Toyota 2010 corolla.sudden accelerator problem:after having the recall update to our corolla, a few months later, we experienced a sudden acceleration problem with our car.from a parked position next to the curb, we put our foot on the brake and then putthe car in reverse to back away from the car in front of us, and the car suddenly accelerated and proceeded tojump over a curb and hit a tree next to us on the side walk. Again, this was when the car was in reverse, so the acceleration was going backwards, with our foot on the brake.after taking our car to the toyota dealership for consultation on sept 7th, they indicate that they could not find anything wrong with the car and we would need to contact toyota directly on this problem. It is now nearly a month later, and we still have not been "visited" by the toyota engineering team.we were assigned a case number by toyota and told to wait to hear from them.we are still without our car and waiting some kind of formal inspection from the toyota corporate team.the local toyota dealer is trying to help as well and is also contacting toyota corporate for assistance.this is not fair to be without our car and some reassurance from toyota that this won't happened again to our car.as of this date october 1, 2010, no inspection has taken place on our car. We're still waiting.

While driving my corolla, even i do not hit the gas pedal, the rpm stays around 2000 and sometimes it started to stuck around 3000 rpm for 15 to 30 seconds than goes to normal. I had difficulty to slow down in busy traffic, because even i hit the brakes it does not cut the gas so the engine still tries to run and the car still tends to go, so i am not able to slow down or it takes time to slow down. I am driving my toyota in the 5th gear and around 3000 rpm. When i need a sudden stop, i let go the gas pedal and hit the brake. The etcs commands high idle even i hit the breaks; the pistons are still working (the engine is still running in gear) with 3000 rpm so i am not able to slow down or stop. This is a serious safety problem. How come ecm would command for high idle from time to time? how can i stop the car or slow down in need while ecm is commanding high idle? it is impossible to have a proper control on the car when ecm commands high idle. Who can give me guarantee that it would not get stuck in higher idles? (because it used to stuck around 2000 rpm and right now it also started sticking around 3000 rpm). When i get close to a curb or to an exit i stop hitting the gas pedal assuming the car will get slow but since it sticks at high rpms the car does not get slower when it is in the gear.

Toyota corolla s 2010 [xxx]with extra stabilizer bar kit, purchased 11-30-09 with delivery in 12/09.1) approximately 1 month after purchase ,the car starting to veer sharply right then left when driving on the highway, it was/is difficult to control requiring a tight grip on the wheel.it feels like strong winds are moving the car but winds are absent and road conditions are normal. This event comes and goes unexpectedly, generally lasts the duration of my commute once started, sometimes occurs with the tire pressure gauge but not always, sometimes occursafter rapid braking.it does not feel like an alignment or balance problem, the car darts from one end of the lane, to the median of the lane on its own. On this date 2-24-10 my local dealership filled the tires, and made a slight change to the left alignment they could not duplicate the problem and stated "this could be a matter of personal preferences" regarding how i felt the car drove when this occurred. The toyota manager also told me today that they understand "there could be a problem but they have no direction on how to repair it." when asked then if he could guarantee my safety and that this would not occur again he stated no, but there was nothing for him to do.no injuries to date. I do not feel toyota is making reasonable efforts to quickly eliminate this problem, acknowledge a problem,and do not wish to resolve this with statements regarding my personal preference for the drive, and since this in their opinion is not reproducible for them it is not a viable problem for them to repair. 2) on approximately 2-11-10i had to use my brakes in an emergency situation in which my brakes were temporally non-response. I had to downshift the gears, remove my foot totally from the gas pedal ,and maneuvered the car away from the other stopped car. No abs was felt, the brake pedal was depressed fully, this occurred at hwy speeds. No acknowledgement of problem or remedy proposed by toy currently.

I am filing this complaint in response to a recall notice i just received from toyota.the notice says toyota will modify my accelerator pedal and floor surface in the driver's footwell.however, the recall does not include providing my recalled 2010 toyota corolla with a brake override system.accordingto james lentz, president of toyota usa, in his testimony before congress (february 23, 2010), toyota promised to install brake override systems in recalled vehicles.my friend who owns a 2009 toyota camry did get a brake override system, which ensures that he can stop his vehicle no matter what happens with the accelerator pedal.toyota should install a brake override system on my recalled vehicle, too--otherwise my car is not as safe as other recalled vehicles.however, when i called toyota about this, they told me they were not going to install brake override systems on corollas.this is wrong and nhtsa should do something about it.

While driving on the interstate in speeds in excess of 75 miles an hour, my 2010 corolla shakes violently in all conditions. I also have an issue when slowing down where the gas pedal will take longer than what is expected to return to an acceptable area and stop accelerating. This second issue has nearly caused several accidents. I have brought this up to the dealer where i purchased this vehicle some three months ago and was told a solution is not readily available and i will be contacted when one is. Both problems have convinced me to carpool to work until a solution is identified.

Toyota corolla le 2010 did not respond to brakes properly for 100 feet when slowing from 10 mph at intersection. Road was slightly damp but not frozen or slippery. Abs & vsc lights went on brakes ground so loudly as i applied more pressure, it sounded as though they'd break off.2 toyota service depts have dismissed my concerns saying the roads must have been worse than i thought.i've been driving for 35 years and have never experienced this kind of out of controlvehicle.i believe there is something in the chip or software or complete brake/vsc/gas pedal combo.very concerned toyota gas pedal fix is not the complete culprit.

Steering and gas throttle problem. Sometimes having difficulties steering the vehicle straight and it feels like you 're not in control with the wheel. Even sometimes at lower speed. Regarding gas throttle there are times that the gas pedal is not responding while you are steeping the gas pedal. It's like driving on a neutral gear. We have not reported the steering problem but we have reported the gas pedal issue twice to the dealer. It so happen that the 2nd complain we did was the time they started doing the recall. Gas pedal where change as the recall required.the steering problem is now a newer concern for us. We have experienced the problem with steering before but we just ignore it. Because it's been raining in our area during the fast few weeks. We where thinking that the roads are just wet andsomewhat it is slippery to drive but even the weather had changed we sometimes experienced the same problem with the steering.

This vehicle uses a drive by wire (dwb) accelerator. When you press on the gas the car lurches forward. This happened on a rental car in 2010 and still is a problem on the used toyota i purchased. When i contacted toyota they stated there was no recall information. They asked me to have the vehicle diagonized at my expense, which i refused to do. This is a problem and based on information on the net others are having the same problem. I have owned many cars and not one has had such a touchy pedal.

2010 toyota. Recall
On 27jan10, i drove home and parked the car under the carport before an ice storm hit oklahoma with no issues.on friday 29jan10, i had to move my car to shovel the snow from the driveway and the car would not start.i made sure everything (defroster, fan, etc) were off and tried again.it wouldn't start and sounded like the engine was almost starting but not quite.i tried a 3rd time and it finally started.all three attempts were several seconds long.the dashboard would not light up and after about 5 seconds, it finally lit up but the engine check light and vsc icon light were on and the vsc off light was flashing.i let it warm up for a while and the lights still did not go away.i moved the car to get the snow out of the way and parked it in the same place again.the following monday, 1feb10, i drove to work with the same 3 lights lit up on roads that had some ice.i fishtailed in two intersections and i've felt the vehicle speed control kick in on wet roads last year but it never kicked in that day so i know for a fact that i did not have vehicle speed control.i drove to work and fired off an e-mail to the local dealership but i could not come in until wednesday 3feb10 and by then, the lights went away on their own.they did, however, find a code and they told me that it was a "camshaft timing" code or something of that sort but the original code that caused the engine check light to come on was already kicked out of memory.this was the first and only time this ever happened.the dealership reset the code for the camshaft timing code but nothing else was done except record it in my file at my request in case it happens again.i did some research and found that some people have had this problem come up when it's cold and wet.for your information, the oklahoma mesonet site says that the high/low temperatures are: 27jan10 66f/43f, 28jan10 46f/28f, and 29jan10 25f/19f.we had rain at first, then sleet, then snow during that period.

2010 rapid acceleration when pushing down the brake pedal.the drivers floor mat was loose & when i pushed on the brake my heels pushed the mat into the accelerator pedal.3 toyota dealers say no recalls grossinger - oak brook / westmont & libertyville...
In january 2011, my 2010 toyota corolla le experienced what has been termed 'sudden acceleration'- while i was braking, the accelerator engaged by itself, going all the way to the floor. My toyota corolla is the newer design i believe, it has nailed down floor mats, and the brake pedal was already worked on by toyota i believe in october 2010. I took my car to toyota, they simply issued an inspection result indicating that the car 'checked out to factory specifications.' toyota is lying about the cause of sudden acceleration, and continues to do so. The company would rather see people injured or killed than deal with the real problem(s).
My sister was driving when she was about to park the car in a parking lot when the accelerator got stuck and she was not able to step on the brake pedal when it crash a tube. Whichshe proceeded to report to the insurance agency and did the report and call the police, but police said had to call the insurance. This was the first time that this had happen when using the car. Then i took the car to a toyota agency to have the car be fix by this factory default. Which they told me were only going to fix the factory issue with the pedal but wouldn't fix the front bumper damage that the car presents because of the crash. I didn't agree in that since this was the car factory defect which led to the crash and the agency had to be responsible for the damage of the car and all that involves. Which i contact directly toyota and they only told me to access this website to do the complaint online.

I drive a 2010 toyota corolla.there is something wrong with the antilock brake system; especially if i am trying to apply the brake to slow the car and am making a right turn(even slightly turning right).it'slike the brakes lock up and the steering gets like a mac truck.this also happens when i go over a bump and/or pothole.it most recently even happened when i was driving down the highway and there was a slight right curve in the road and i wasn't applying the brakes.i took the car into the dealership today and they could find nothing wrong.within an hour of leaving the dealership; it happened twice yet they couldn't duplicate the problem.i have a brand new car and am afraid to drive it.supposedly my car wasn't recalled for the gas pedal because it was made in japan but feel like the gas pedal is sticky at times.i am very upset because i just put all this money out and i have an unsafe vehicle to drive.my daughter and i were going to try and drive across country this summer and now we cannot possibly for we donot feel safe in this car.toyota should have to buy back the vehicles.i believe there is a much bigger problem causing all this that they are not admitting and/or have not found yet.i didn't complain or take the car back right away because i had similar problems with the scion xd and was told there was nothing wrong again and again.this is an ongoing problem.
I purchased a 2010 toyota corolla two months ago.i am now receiving a notice ofrecall for the mat/accelerator problem.i was assured by one salesperson that new vehicles did not have this issue.why does the government allow such sales knowing that this problem exists and why hasn't toyota fixed these problems before such sales are made.
I was on the highway going about 70mph. My exit was coming up on the right side so i put my foot on the brake to slow down. However the brake stuck and the vehicle wouldn't slow down, it kept going. I had the cruise control on, and usually if i brake without first turning it off it slows down, but that didn't happen. So i turned the cruise control off but nothing happened. My car kept going. I pushed down on the brake, but that made the car accelerate even more. I checked to make sure the pedal wasn't stuck, it wasn't, but i knew that wasn't the problem because my car was accelerating when i was hitting the brake. Luckily there was no one in front of me because i was going over 110mph. I sped at this speed for quite a ways maybe 3/4 of a mile. I thought i was going to die and had my phone in my had to call 911. I kept pushing on the brake since i didn't know what else to do (this of course made me go faster and faster). The brake wouldn't go down though. I didn't understand what was happening. It was like stuck? finally i heard my accelerate pop. And the car started to decelerate.

I bought a 2010 toyota corolla s on oct. 22, 2009. At bitterroot motors in missoula, montana. The day after i bought the car i drove it to ovando, montana, north of missoula, on a tryout road trip. I noticed that it was flighty on the road and seemed to waver without reason (no wind, no semi trucks, wind shear, rain, etc). Being a new car to me, i passed it off as the nature of a lighter and smaller vehicle than what i was accustomed to driving (my other vehicle is a 2004 ford f150). Since that time, i have continually experienced this with no external explanation (ie: weather, road conditions, etc). This problem seems to happen at speeds of 50 mph and over and it is a consistent issue. I commute regularly between stevensville, mt., and missoula, mt., for work (28 miles one way), and i often find that the car will drift left or right when i am at a steady speed. This is in addition to the fact that my vehicle is on the list of recalls for the recent accelerator issue. I need to add here that the second day after buying the car, i was getting fuel and as i turned from the pump to re-enter the car, "pop!!" and the driver side window totally shattered. I immediately called the dealer at bitterroot motors and drove it to their service dept to get it fixed. They replaced the window under warranty, and told me they suspected it was a preexisting stress fracture in the glass that finally gave. I bought this car based on safety ratings, consumer reports ratings, and to get better gas mileage on my necessary trips to and from work. It isn't hard to understand the stress of this situation, not to mention economic hardship. I paid for the car outright ($18,075) and it physically sickens me to think that such serious issues exist. I haven't even owned it 5 months! at this point i am fearful of even driving the car. If the world worked in good ways, toyota would replace this vehicle completely, and preferably with something other than another toyota.
My son received his car today that was shipped to him from maui to portsmouth,va. As he was driving back to base his passenger side mirror fell off. The inside was melted. I have pictures of the mirror. This is a fire hazard. I contacted toyota via email about the incident. This car was purchased new and has only had routine maintenance. There is either a faulty connection or faulty part that caused this. I now worry that the car may catch fire.

It would cause fire due to friction to the surface of the metal causing possible hazard to the motor that operates the sunroof too.

When outside are temps are colder and require heat and defrost the inside windows will not stay clear. The fogging of the windows makes this very unsafe to drive, worse at night.

This should be a safety recall as dangerous to drive.

Why have i not been contacted...this is ridiculous..10 recalls on this vehicle and none of them have been fixed...this was a dangerous vehicle that never shod have been on the road..total loses of vehicle..where is the warranty?.. This vehicle was sold less than a month after my accident and i was told therefore the vehicle could not be located for investigation.. I want something done about this..!
The car suddenly stopped and soon caught fire by itself when i was driving on 101 & lawrence express, california. Report shown by insurance company said "found cyl #1 rod is bent and has punctured the eng. Block causing oil to leak also the block impacted the ac compressor possibly causing the veh to catch fire melting the ac compressor harness,rf wheel speed harness,front bumper,wheel and wheel liner.no other failures seen or demo" this happened a week after i had my car inspected and maintained. Tried to reach toyota, but they are not responding.
We believe something punctured the front left wheel of the car when driven down a street and the emergency brake when released did not stop the car. The car skid into parked cars and air bag was not deflated even though it was serviced under the airbag recall. Passenger sideview mirror, right body of car is damaged, side and portion of front and back bumpers became damaged. No out of pocket expenses made. The damaged car sits in our driveway soon to be towed and sold for parts.
I made a left hand turn and was hit on the front passenger side. The force of the hit spun my car in a full circle, damaged the entire front of the frame, knocked off the front bumper, caused the trunk to open, and caused severe damage spanning the whole front end of the car including the driver's side door which i was unable to open. During this accident, the airbags did not deploy. The estimated cost for repair for my corolla was 13,000 dollars.

I was wondering if any other customer was having problems with their tires, i have had four nail in my tires four different times. My ground affect on my toyota sport is fading the color after one year. The dealer told me it was from taking it through the carwash. I took it through mike's carwash two times and the other times through the toyota carwash at the dealer ship. I had a hole in front floor mat after one year but they replaced all four of them.## vin passed ## toyota corolla 2010##
1. This car can not be driven in a straight line on the highway even when you hold steering without moving. It seems vehicle slowly, consistently drifts mostly to the left and to the right. One needs to pay so much attention on steering while driving. This problem has been there since day one (8 miles) and i requested to fix before i sign the paper work but not has been taken care other than car wash. This issue still exists even after performing alignment during our first service visit as i thought it was an alignment issue. We believe it is a very serious issue than sticky pedal and pose a potential risk for corolla ownersif we can not control steering. It has potential road hazard as the vehicle wanders both left and right especially with heavy traffic and feels like car wheels are not under control. We are positive that these steering/suspension issues were also raised on other 2010 corollas by a number of owners. Toyota and dealers must be fully aware of these concerns but failed to declare up front. During our second visit they told us about ts 1040 and replaced steering control computer board. Seems wandering issue is gone for now. But tires are problem as i am having concern from the beginning.2. I feel humming mild vibration/resonance in steering wheel when we cross 50-60 mph. It feels like tires are vibrating the steering wheel. Replacing computer controller did not fix mild vibration of steering.3. Tires: as i had doubt about tires this could betires problem but toyota service team isnot willing to accept the fact. Once you cross 62 mph you can clearly feel the tire vibration mainly in a steering wheel and also on the vehicle. Road force balancing has been done but there is no improvement. I am not sure it is engine related or tires. I have been insisting on replacing another set of better balanced tires or different make of tires.
The tires look good but one tire blow out on me y i was driving down the road and they didn't fix the passage side airbag
