DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, STOPPED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE AND USED HIS OBD2 READER AND FOUND OUT THE ISSUE, STILL HAVEN'T NOTICED MUCH OF AN ISSUE EXCEPT FOR THE SHARP HARSH SHIFTING FROM 1ST THRU 3RD UNLESS BABYING IT. SO I GO INTO THE DEALER WITH 94786MILES AND SEE WHAT'S THE ISSUE AND WHY SO MANY PROBLEMS.

I OWN A 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA. JUST RECENTLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. SOON AFTER THE TRANSMISSION WOULD JUMP EVERY TIME THE CAR SHIFTED INTO A HIGHER GEAR. IN OTHER WORDS, AS I INCREASED IN SPEED IT WOULD MAKE A HARD SHIFT OR SOMETHING LIKE IT. TURNS OUT THAT THE ECM IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FROM DOING A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM AND DEFINITELY POSES A SAFETY RISK. I LOVE TOYOTA, BUT THIS IS A PROBLEM SINCE SOME DRIVERS EXPERIENCE A COMPLETE SHUT DOWN WHILE THEY ARE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I DISCOVERED OTHER SIMILAR ISSUES AT THE FOLLOWING ADDRESS: HTTP://WWW.TOYOTANATION.COM/FORUM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?T=201631. *TR

INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) TO ADD SOME ADDITIONAL FUEL TO THE TOYOTA FIRE STORM.....I AM THE OWNER OF A 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA THAT RECENTLY HAD A "COMPUTER PROBLEM" DIAGNOSED AS A SHIFT SOLENOID PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM WAS A KNOWN ISSUE TO TOYOTA AND IT WAS SUCH AN ISSUE, THERE WAS A TSB (TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN) WRITTEN TO HELP MECHANICS DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. I STOPPED BY THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE (NEW) AND THEY TOLD ME TO CALL TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE - WHICH I DID. ALTHOUGH THEY ADMITTED TO AND RECOGNIZED THE PROBLEM, THEY SAID THEY WOULD ONLY PARTIALLY REIMBURSE PEOPLE WHO HAD LESS THAN 80,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLES. I HAD OVER THAT AMOUNT. MY MECHANIC SAID IF I WERE TO TAKE IT TO A TOYOTA GARAGE, THEY WOULD JUST HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITHOUT TELLING ME ABOUT IT,...

HERE I REPORT AN ACCIDENT WHICH MAY BE CAUSED BY TOYOTA UNINTENDED ACCELERATE PROBLEM. WE BOUGHT 2005 TOYOTA COROLLA SPORT ON JULY 09, 2004. WE DRIVE 2000-3000 MILES/ PER YEAR. AS WE BOUGHT 5 YEARS PRE-PAID MAINTENANCE, WE HAVE REGULAR MAINTENANCE SERVICE WITH FAULKNER DEALER EVERY HALF YEAR UNTIL JULY 09, 2009. THERE HAS NO BIG PROBLEMS DURING THE FIRST 3-YEAR WARRANTY PERIOD EXCEPT ON AROUND SUMMER OF 2007, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND TOYOTA DEALER REPLACED THE COMPUTER CONTROL SYSTEM WITHOUT CHARGE (WE'RE NOT SURE THE REPLACED COMPUTER NAME AND WE THINK THE DEALER SHOULD HAVE RECORD). THE WEATHER CONDITION IS LIGHT-MEDIUM RAIN WHILE OUR CAR ACCIDENT HAPPENED. WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED, MY 5-YEAR OLD SON AND I WERE IN THE CAR. THE ROAD SPEED LIMIT IS 25 MILES PER HOUR, I DROVE UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT AT A LOCAL ROAD AND IT IS ABOUT 2-3 MILES...
