Consumer Description

MY 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA WOULD NOT START ONE MORNING. I KEPT TRYING TO START IT AND NO CLICKING OR SOUND OF THE CAR TRYING TO TURN OVER HAPPENED. EVENTUALLY IT DID START BUT HAD A VERY HESITATING SOUND TO IT. THE NEXT DAY, IT HAD THE SAME PROBLEMS SO I TRIED CHARGING THE BATTERY FOR A FEW MINUTES. THIS SEEMED TO WORK AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR TO WORK. AS I WAS DRIVING, THE CAR BEGAN TO SHIFT HARD AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED TOYOTA AND A LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AFTER DISCOVERING THAT MY CAR WAS INVOLVED IN A RECALL. TOYOTA THEN GAVE THE GO AHEAD TO THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE THE ECM, THE PART BEING RECALLED. THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE PART FREE OF CHARGE AND THE CAR SEEMED TO BE "FIXED". TWO DAYS LATER... MY CAR WILL ONCE, NOT START. *TR
