THE CAR SHAKES/VIBRATES WHEN HITTING 45/50 MPH AND GETS WORSE AT HIGHER SPEED. WHEN I ACCELERATE THE SHAKE IS BAD. FIND IT VIBRATES ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I PURCHASED NEW TIRES, DID THE BALANCE AND WHEEL ALIGNMENT. REPLACED MOTOR/TRANSMISSION MOUNTS. REPLACED BALL JOINTS AND TIE RODS AND STILL THIS CAR SHAKES VERY BADLY. 3 AUTO REPAIR SHOPS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TELL ME WHAT IS NECESSARY TO REPAIR. MY FAMILY TRAVELS IN THIS CAR AND I NEED ANSWERS. PLEASE ADVISE *TR

IF I DONT HEAR ANYTHING BACK I WILL BE GOING TO THE NEWS FOR HELP.

TRAVELING AT 80 MPH ON INTERSTATE, STEPPED ON GAS TO CHANGE LANES, AND ENGINE REVVED, BUT NO POWER TO MOVE. HAD TO RUN OFF OF THE HIGHWAY ONTO THE GRASS BERM. BEFORE THAT HAPPENED, THE STEERING WHEEL HAD BEEN ACTING STRANGELY - MUCH VIBRATION AND PLAY. MY SISTER AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED HAD THE CAR OVERTURNED OR SOMETHING AT THAT SPEED. NOW I AM TOLD THE CAR NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION, STRUTS, AND POWER STEERING ISSUE STILL BEING LOOKED AT. CAN I GET ANY HELP FROM GM DEALER WITH THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE. I READ THAT THESE EXACT ISSUES AFFECTED MY MODEL AND YEAR, WITH RECALLS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND ADVISE.

PURCHASED IN 2011 FROM TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN LOUISVILLE. IT HAD THE TIRE SENSOR LIGHT ON. THEY SENT IT TO THE SHOP AND WE WERE TOLD IT WAS A SENSOR MALFUNCTION OVER AND OVER. THEN OTHER LIGHTS STARTED COMING ON ALONG WITH THE SLUGGISH FEELING AND AN ANNOYING RATTLING, ROLLING SOUND. DEALER SAID THAT THIS WAS FROM SPARK PLUGS???? I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. THEY WANTED 100.00 FOR DIAGNOSTIC 500 FOR SPARK PLUGS. I DECLINED. THE ROTOR AND STRUTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED TWICE. THE CAR WOULD OFTEN TIMES BE RUNNING WITH THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION, GAS GONE, NOT TO MENTION DANGEROUS AND BAD FOR THE CAR. TRANSMISSION FAILURE STARTS AND CONTINUES. HAD A CAR ACCIDENT IN DECEMBER 2013. AIRBAGS DID NOT ACTIVATE. DEALERSHIP RECEIVED OVER $5000. AFTER A MONTH THEY SAY IT'S FINISHED BRING ME THE CAR. I GET HOME AND THE KEY WON'T COME OUT OF THE IGNITION....
