I am contacting you on a problem I cannot fully describe. However, I believe there is a mechanical problem with the right side of my vehicle with handling and braking. I have downloaded the form with the information as reported to me and explained via the North American Corolla Facebook group. Please look at the attached documentation.
When it's wet on the road or raining my car deploys and I lose control I've been telling the dealer ship since the first day I had this car they told me it's nothing yesterday when it was raining my car did it again also u I called to have my recall fixed and they said there was not any in my car??? This car is a risk I'm going to kill myself driving this car or get hurt I had 3 rental cars because I am scared to drive this car [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
AT 60,00 MILES I STARTED HEARING NOISES COMING FROM THE FRONT SUSPENSION I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS THE UPPER STRUT MOUNT HERE. DEALERSHIP REPLACED FRONT MOUNT. NOW IT IS DOING AGAIN I'M AT A HUNDRED AND TEN THOUSAND MILES AND THAT PROBLEM STILL PERSIST SOMETHING IS GOING ON WITH THE STRUT MOUNTS FRONT STRUT MOUNTS OF THIS VEHICLE EVERY TIME I GO OVER A SPEED BUMP OR RAILROAD TRACKS IT MAKES A CLUNKING NOISE AND ALSO WHEN I'M TURNING LEFT AND RIGHT
CLUNKING NOISE, SOMETIMES VERY NOTICEABLE WHEN GOING OVER SPEED BUMP AND TURNING STEERING TO RIGHT OR LEFT. TOOK THE CAR TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TWICE. BOTH TIMES THEY SAID THE NOISE IS NORMAL. BUT INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SAYS THERE IS PROBLEM WITH CV JOINT AND BUSHING. I AM WONDERING IF THIS VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.
BOTH FRONT SEATS ARE LOOSE. I NOTICE MINE IS LOOSE WHEN I MAKE A SUDDEN STOP OR AND GO OF BUMPS AND DIPS. I BEEN TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS, BUT ONLY ONE IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM. THE ADVISOR SAID IT WILL TAKE LITERALLY 8 HOURS EACH, I CALLED TOYOTA TO LET THEM KNOW OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE MECHANIC FROM THE DEALER WHO NOTICED THE PROBLEM. HE ALSO SAID HE NOTICED THE NOISE I WAS TALKING ABOUT WHEN I GO OVER DIPS AND BUMPS. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BALL JOINT OR BUSHING AND HE SAID NO. THEY NOISE IS JUST THERE
THE CRUISE CONTROL IS JUST AWFUL AND HAS BEEN SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW IN DECEMBER 2016. JUST AS SEVERAL OTHERS HAVE DESCRIBED, IT CANNOT CONTROL THE SPEED WHEN GOING DOWN HILL. IT RAISES THE RPM'S TRYING TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN, BUT IT ISN'T VERY EFFECTIVE. I'VE NEVER HAD ANOTHER CAR OR ANOTHER TOYOTA HAVE SUCH POOR SPEED CONTROL. SO MUCH, THAT I DON'T EVEN BOTHER TRYING TO USE IT ANYMORE. A COP ISN'T GOING TO LISTEN TO "MY CRUISE CONTROL WASN'T WORKING RIGHT" IF I GET PULLED OVER. THE BRAKES ALREADY FEEL LIKE THEY ARE WEARING OUT AT 26K MILES. MY 13 CAMRY HAD 30K AND THE BRAKES STILL FELT BRAND NEW. SAME WITH THE 15 SENTRA I HAD. THE SUSPENSION FEELS ROUGHER AND IS STARTING TO MAKE NOISES ALREADY. THIS CAR SHOULDN'T FEEL LIKE IT HAS 60K MILES ON IT ALREADY.
