Most Recent Complaints
I AM NOT LOOKING FOR DAMAGES AND HAD NEVER OFFICIALLY REPORTED THIS, BUT ABOUT 23 YEARS AGO I BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA COROLLA THAT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED UP TO 90-100 MPH LIKE RESENT COMPLAINTS ABOUT TOYOTA VEHICLES ARE DOING. IN SPITE OF STANDING ON THE BRAKE, TRYING TO GET THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND PUTTING MY TOE UNDERNEATH THE GAS PEDAL TO SEE IF IT WAS STUCK I WAS IN DANGER OF RUNNING UNDER THE REAR OF A SEMI. MY 15 YEAR OLD SON REACHED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. I HAD ENOUGH MOMENTUM GOING TO GET OFF THE ROAD. RECENTLY DIVORCED, I WAS SCARED TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN AND RETURNED IT TO THE DEALER WHO INSISTED NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR! I TRADED IT IN AND TOOK A BIG MONETARY LOSS BECAUSE THE CAR WAS NEW. I WAS ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED AT THE TIME. NOW I AM WONDERING IF TOYOTA HAS BEEN COVERING UP THESE INCIDENTS A VERY LONG TIME AND IF ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM AS LONG AGO AS I DID AND WHETHER OR NOT THE INCIDENTS WERE REPORTED. I DO NOT BELIEVE TOYOTA INCIDENTS ARE NEW, NOR DO I BELIEVE IT IS A GAS PEDAL PROBLEM. IT HAS TO BE A COMPUTER ELECTRICAL THING. AFTER OVER 20 YEARS OF NOT BUYING TOYOTA, JUST THIS THANKSGIVING BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA HIGHLANDER AND NOW ALL THIS!!!! GOT THAT ONE FIXED YESTERDAY, HOPEFULLY, BUT I STILL FEAR AN ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER PROBLEM. *TR
THIS IS A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE ONCOMING, BRIGHT HEADLIGHTS OF OTHER PARTIES' AUTO. I'VE BEEN DISTRACTED BY ONCOMING BRIGHT HEADLIGHTS AND FROM MY REARVIEW MIRROR IN THE EVENING.*AK
UPPER PORTION OF THE FEMALE CONNECTOR OF THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT IS BROKEN. *CJ
WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 70 MPH VEHICLE WILL VIBRATE. THEN, AFTER PASSING THAT SPEED VIBRATION WILL STOP. FOUND OUT THAT FRONT TIRES HAD A TREAD SEPARATION. GOOD YEAR WHEATHER HANDLER 7JJ. *AK
WHEN PUTTING THE HEAT ON, WINDSHIELD CRACKS, AND THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT PARK LIGHT HAS A LITTLE OPENING IN THE LENS. *AK
