Consumer Description
I HAD BAD EXPERIENCE WITH TOYOTA YARIS 2008. I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY 264 EAST AT 70MILES/HR ON CRUISE CONTROL. SUDDENLY THE CAR STARTED JUMPING LEFT AND RIGHT. I TRIED TO CONTROL THE STEERING BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. ANOTHER CAR WAS COMING FROM MY RIGHT SIDE SO IN ORDER TO SAVE THAT CAR I SLIGHTLY TURNED THE STEERING TO LEFT. MY CAR STARTED SPINNING AND WENT OFF THE ROAD & AFTER 3-4 SPINS I COULD FINALLY STOP THE CAR. THE DEALER AND SERVICE PEOPLE COULD NOT FIND THE REASON FOR IT. WHILE MY CAR WAS SPINNING MY TWO TIRES GOT PUNCTURED AND ONE RIM BROKE. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR. TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE ALSO COULD NOT HELP ME IN THIS AND ALL THE EXPENSE[$ 500] HAS COME ON ME ONLY. EVERYBODY IS WASHING THEIR HANDS OFF. NOBODY KNOWS WHAT WENT WRONG IN THE CAR. *TR
