2010 Toyota Corolla Complaint Log

BOUGHT 2010 COROLLA IN SEPT 2009, NEW FROM FACTORY. NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL SEEMED VERY LOOSE AND UNRESPONSIVE FROM THE DAY WE TOOK POSSESSION. TOLD SALESPERSON WHO SAID IT WAS 'NORMAL'. NEWS MEDIA NOW REPORTS STEERING ISSUES WITH 2010 COROLLAS - FILING COMPLAINT TO REGISTER WITH ODI. NO CRASH OCCURRED, BUT STEERING SHOULD NOT BE THAT LOOSE ON A NEW CAR. PLANNING TO TAKE INTO DEALER NEXT MONTH FOR EVAL. *TR

I PURCHASED MY TOYOTA COROLLA LE 2010 IN AUGUST 2009. WE FOUND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT ALIGNED PROPERLY AND THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES SKIPPED/SHIFTED ON FREEWAY. WE REPORTED THIS TO TOYOTA BEFORE THEIR MASSIVE RECALL. WE TOOK IT TO STERLING MCCALL TOYOTA IN HOUSTON SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY INSISTED THERE WAS NO ALIGNMENT PROBLEM, EVEN A THIRD-PARTY MECHANICS INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND IDENTIFIED THERE WAS ALIGNMENT PROBLEM. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS TO BE PLACED SLANTED TO THE LEFT SIDE IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO GO STRAIGHT. IT WAS SO OBVIOUS THAT ANYONE YOU CAN NOTICE IT. THE CAR DEALER AND THE TOYOTA US HEADQUARTER TOLD US THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. THIS HAS BE A SECURITY CONCERN AND WE HAVE BEEN TRYING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE WITH TOYOTA BUT HAS FAILED TO. I URGE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THIS MATTER TO ENSURE CONSUMER SAFETY. *TR

OWN A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA S VEHICLE AND THE STEERING IS HORRIBLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE TRACKS FROM LEFT TO RIGHT WITH THE SLIGHTEST COMPENSATION CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ALMOST JERK IN THE COMPENSATED DIRECTION. THIS VEHICLES STEERING IS DANGEROUS AND I HAVE SEVERAL FRIENDS THAT ARE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. I CONTACTED MY DEALERS SERVICE REP AND WAS BASICALLY TOLD THIS IS NORMAL WITH A CHUCKLE. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 2000 MILES ON IT ALMOST ALL INTERSTATE MILES. TOYOTA NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I WILL BE PRESSING MY DEALER TO BUY THIS VEHICLE BACK. *TR

FOR ENTIRE TIME OWNED - THERE IS A GAP OF SECONDS BETWEEN PRESSING GAS PEDAL AND ACTUAL ACCELERATION. WHEN I PRESS GAS PEDAL THERE IS A HESITATION LEADING ME TO PRESS HARDER. THEN OF COURSE THE CAR HAS A SUDDEN SPRINT IN ACCELERATION. THIS IS NOT SAFE. I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 5.5 MONTHS SO I AM GETTING BETTER AT WAITING INSTEAD OF PRESSING HARDER. BUT I FEEL THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT. I INQUIRED OVER PHONE WITH SERVICE MANAGER WHERE I PURCHASED - EXPLANATION: I AM NOT USE TO A 4 CYLINDER, WHICH I BELIEVED BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A 4 CYLINDER. BUT, I AM BEGINNING NOT TO BELIEVE THIS EXCUSE. *TW

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA - TRUNK FALLING ON MY HEAD AS I TRIED TO TAKE OUT GROCERIES FROM THE TRUNK. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES; 2 TIMES FOR ME, ONCE ON MY DAUGHTER AND ONCE ON MY SON. WHEN YOU OPEN THE TRUNK, IT DOES NOT STAY OPEN ESPECIALLY IF THE CAR IS ON AN INCLINE. EVEN ON FLAT SURFACE, IT HAS THE TENDENCY TO CLOSE/SHUT. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED WHICH TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SLOW DOWN AND STRUCK A POLE. THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED MINOR DAMAGES. THERE WAS NO MENTION OF INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER IN WHICH THERE WERE NO SERVICE REPAIRS PERFORMED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 10,600.

I'VE BEEN DRIVING THIS VEHICLE NOW FOR ALMOST 5 YRS. SINCE THE DAY I GOT INTO IT, THE THING WALKS THE HIGHWAY (40 MPH+) CONTINUALLY. ON A TRIP OVER TWO HOURS, YOU START TO GET EXHAUSTED FROM THE CONTINUOUS WEAVING BACK AND FORTH, LIKE A SIDE WIND KEEPS ALTERNATING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT TO LEFT TO RIGHT ECT... ALIGNMENTS, NEW TIRES, ECT CHANGES NOTHING... SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG WITH EITHER THE DESIGN OF THE FRONT END, OR THE STEERING. I JUST WANT TO ADD MY NAME TO THE COMPLAINTS, BEFORE THIS PROBLEM IS ACTUALLY PROVEN TO BE FAULTY AND KILLS MULTIPLE VICTIMS. AFTER 70K, TIRED OF A VEHICLE WHICH WEARS ON ONE'S NERVES... *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE STEERING WAS DIFFICULT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS RE-ALIGNED BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE AND THAT IT WOULD TAKE TIME TO GET USED TO DRIVING IT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 0. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2,400. UPDATED 6/17/10 *CN THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WOULD DRIFT FROM SIDE TO SIDE. UPDATED 07/15/10.*JB

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. SUDDEN ACCELERATION *GR THE CONSUMER STATED SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE HE HAS HAD TWO ACCIDENTS DUE TO SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS BACKING OUT OF HIS GARAGE, WHEN HALF WAY DOWN THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. HE APPLIED THE BRAKE, BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO BACK UP IN THE STREET AND WENT ACROSS THE ROAD AND HIT A CURB, WHERE IF FINALLY STOPPED. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE. THE SECOND INCIDENT OCCURRED WHEN THE CONSUMER WAS BACKING OUT OF PARKING SPACE, AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, BUT WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKE, NOTHING HAPPENED. INSTEAD, IT KEPT GOING UNTIL HE HIT A TRUCK THAT WAS DOUBLE PARKED BEHIND HIM. AS THE CONSUMER PU THE GEAR INTO PARK, SO HE COULD TALK TO THE OWNER OF THE TRUCK, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, ALMOST HITTING THE PARK VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THE CONSUMER. AS HE REPEATEDLY APPLIED THE BRAKE TO STOP THE VEHICLE, NOTHING HAPPENED SO HE FORCED THE GEAR TO PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND FINALLY THE VEHICLE STOPPED. THE CONSUMER STATED HIS RIGHT WRIST WAS A LITTLE SORE FROM FORCING THE GEAR INTO PARK AND HE COULDN'T LIFT ANYTHING FOR A DAY OR TWO. JB

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA STEERING PROBLEM. CAR WANDERS ON HIGHWAY HARD TO HOLD IN LANE DUE TO ELECTRIC POWER STEERING. *TR

SINCE OBTAINING THE VEHICLE IN 2009 BRAND NEW, UPON BREAKING GRADUALLY, IT SURGES FORWARD SLIGHTLY WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT SHOULD SLOW DOWN. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS ISSUE UP TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP WHO DENIED ANY SUCH INCONSISTENCIES. ALSO, THERE HAVE BEEN ELECTRICAL ISSUES FOR THE PAST FEW YEARS WHEN TURNING ON THE RADIO; AFTER PUSHING ANY BUTTON AT ANY TIME, IT WILL RANDOMLY CHANGE THE DISPLAY TO NONSENSE CHARACTERS OR BECOME BLANK.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH WHEN THE CONTACT FELT THE VEHICLE PULLING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALERSHIP BUT THE CONTACT COULD NOT FIND THE CAUSE FOR FAILURE. SUBSEQUENT VISITS TO THE DEALERSHIP STILL PROVIDED NO REASON FOR THE FAILURE. THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED WHEN THE CONTACT DROVE OVER 50 MPH. SHE STATED THAT SHE COULD NOT CONTROL THE VEHICLES STEERING. THE DEALER TOLD HER THAT THE PULLING SENSATION WAS NORMAL AS THE VEHICLE WAS GRIPPING THE ROAD. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,400. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 7,600. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

PURCHASED A 2010 COROLLA LAST AUGUST. THE STEERING IS "SLOPPY", "LOOSE" - LIKE THERE'S EXCESSIVE "PLAY" IN THE WHEEL - AND NEEDS CONSTANT CORRECTION, OR THE CAR WILL WANDER ALL OVER THE PLACE. A LONG TRIP IN THIS VEHICLE WOULD BE AN EXHAUSTING ADVENTURE. AND THERE'S ONLY A THOUSAND MILES ON IT. YOU CAN ADD MY NAME TO THE LIST OF OWNERS WHO FEEL THIS PARTICULAR MODEL HAS A STEERING PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS HARD TO CONTROL. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. HE HAD TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH IN ORDER FOR IT TO CONTINUE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE TOW END ALIGNMENT WAS A LITTLE OFF. THE DEALER ALIGNED THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,500. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 79,000.

I HAVE A TOYOTA COROLLA 2010 WHICH I BOUGHT IN THE FIRST WEEK OF AUGUST 2009. WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO SACRAMENTO AROUND LAST AUGUST, MY CAR LOST POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF A FREEWAY. I WAS IN THE FAST LANE, AND UNABLE TO OPERATE THE CAR. I REALIZED THAT THE ENGINE WAS NOT THERE, IT WENT OFF, NO POWER AND THE CAR DECREASED ITS SPEED AND FINALLY STOPPED. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT IN THE LEFT EMERGENCE LANE. IF IT WAS A RUSH HOUR AND TRAFFIC WAS BUSY, I WOULD HAVE AN ACCIDENT. FORTUNATELY, THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. AFTER THINKING FOR 5 MINUTES OR SO, I TURNED ON THE ENGINE AND STARTED DRIVING AGAIN. LAST WEEK I WENT TO TOYOTA DEALER (FOR THE RECALL) AND TOLD MY SITUATION. BUT THEY DIDN'T GIVE MUCH ATTENTION TO MY CONCERNS. I KNOW COME TO REALIZE THAT THIS MAY NOT BE MY PROBLEM AND SOMEONE MAY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I NEED HELP HOW THIS HAPPEN AND IF THE PROBLEM OCCURS IN OTHER AREA, PLEASE PREVENT IT HAPPENING AGAIN. SO THAT WE WILL SAVE LIFE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 30 TO 35 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS THE "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL THERE WAS A SLOW RESPONSE. THE DRIVER CONTINUED TO DRIVE WITH CAUTION. THE WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED UNTIL THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS CONTRIBUTED TO A LEAK LOCATED ON THE RIGHT CYLINDER. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED UNDER THE SERVICE WARRANTY. THE CONTACT HAD CONCERNS OF THE SAFETY RISK. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 260.

PURCHASED A NEW 2010 COROLLA 4-DOOR SEDAN S; IMMEDIATELY A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES AND STEERING WAS NOTICED UPON FIRST LONG DRIVE. WHEN DEPRESSED THE BRAKES WOULD GO ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR. STEERING THE CAR IN A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN THE FREEWAY WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT CONSTANT CORRECTIONS, I CALL IT NERVOUS STEERING, WHICH AFTER MORE THAN 50 MILES BECAUSE VERY STRESSFUL AND TIRING. PURCHASE DATE 8-22-09. THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP LOCATED IN VICTORVILLE, CALIFORNIA EARLY SEPT 09. THE BRAKES WERE EXAMINED AND AFTER CERTAIN CORRECTIONS THE BRAKE PEDAL IS BETTER BUT NOT PERFECT. AS FOR THE STEERING..THE TECHNICIAN SAYS IT'S WITHIN NORMAL PARAMETERS...WHAT EVERY THAT MEANS. THERE IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT WITH THE STEERING SYSTEM; AFTER REVIEWING THE VEHICLE BROCHURE REGARDING THE STEERING SYSTEM IT READS "ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) HELPS GIVES COROLLA STEERING RESPONSE THAT'S EFFORTLESSLY ACCURATE" HOWEVER NOTHING COULD MORE FROM THE TRUTH. IT'S BEEN MY EXPERIENCE AFTER 7000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER...THAT WHEN STEERING THE CAR DOWN THE HIGHWAY...THE CAR WILL LITERALLY LEAVE THE LANE YOUR DRIVING IN WHICH REQUIRES STEERING CORRECTION TO KEEP IT IN THE DRIVING LANE YOU'RE TRAVELING. THE BROCHURE FURTHER READS THAT "EPS ALSO ELIMINATES HYDRAULIC-ASSIST COMPONENTS THAT CAN REDUCE FUEL ECONOMY" HOWEVER I WOULD SAY AT WHAT COST...IF THIS NEW SYSTEM RENDERS THE STEERING PROCESS A VERY NERVOUS AND TIRING EXPERIENCE FOR THE DRIVER. A FATIGUED DRIVER IS AN UNSAFE DRIVER...I CREDIT THE FAULT WITH THIS NEW SYSTEM "EPS" AS A POTENTIAL DISASTER WAITING TO HAPPEN. IT'S MY ASSESSMENT AFTER OWNING THIS VEHICLE NOW 6 MONTHS...THAT TOYOTA NEEDS TO REVISIT THIS "EPS" SYSTEM AND CONSIDER RETURNING TO THE FORMER HYDRAULIC-ASSIST COMPONENTS...IT MAY MORE COSTLY FOR THEM TO BUILD...BUT AT LEAST IT WORKED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE IT HAD A REPUTATION FOR SAFETY AND RELIABILITY HOWEVER IT'S BEEN THE ABSOLUTE WORST PURCHASE EVER IMAGINED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING RECURRING BRAKE AND STEERING FAILURES. REPEATED PRESSURE WOULD HAVE TO BE APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT UNKNOWN HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE WOULD DRIFT FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER BUT THE FAILURE WAS NOT DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 7,020.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MADE A SCRATCHING SOUND WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE DEALER REPAIRED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TWICE ACCORDING TO RECALL CAMPAIGN ID 10V017000, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ACCELERATOR PEDAL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 700. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 6,700.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BRAKES SEEMED TO RELEASE WHEN SHE DROVE APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH OVER A BUMPY SURFACE. THE VEHICLE ALSO OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING OVER ICY ROAD SURFACES OR ROCKS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 2,452.

MY 2010 COROLLA HAS HAD A STEERING PROBLEM SINCE ITS PURCHASE. IN 50 YEARS OF DRIVING IN OVER 25 NEW VEHICLES, IT IS THE WORST. IT WILL NOT TRACK PROPERLY AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS. IT WANDERS RANDOMLY TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT. NOT ALIGNMENT AND NOT WIND CAUSED. YOU MUST MAKE SMALL CORRECTIONS EVERY SECOND OR TWO TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE. PASSING OTHER VEHICLES AT HIGHWAY SPEED IS RISKY. THIS PROBLEM WAS FIRST NOTICED ON I-95 THE DAY I TOOK THE CAR HOME. MY WIFE DID NOT NOTICE IT WHEN SHE DRIVES UNDER 50MPH; BUT IS VERY EVIDENT AT 65-75MPH. IT IS VERY TIRING TO DRIVE THE CAR SINCE YOU MUST REMAIN TOTALLY FOCUSED WITH A FIRM GRIP ON THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL TIMES SINCE YOU MUST RESPOND TO THE CAR'S RANDOM VEERS TO ONE OR THE OTHER SIDE. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY VEHICLE DO THIS BEFORE. I CAN SEE WHERE AN ACCIDENT WOULD BE VERY POSSIBLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHEN PASSING OR TRAVELING WITH OTHER VEHICLES TO YOUR LEFT OR RIGHT. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT MUST BE CORRECTED, ALONG WITH THE ACCELERATOR PROBLEM. I HAD PLANNED TO COMPLAIN TO MY TOYOTA DEALER IN ORANGEBURG, SOUTH CAROLINA WHEN I TOOK MY COROLLA IN FOR THE ACCELERATOR RECALL. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AS I HAVE OWNED TOYOTAS BEFORE AND, UNTIL THIS MONTH, WAS PLANNING TO BUY A 2011 TOYOTA TRUCK. THE STEERING PROBLEM IS REAL AND NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND CORRECTED. *TR

SINCE DELIVERY, MY NEW 2010 COROLLA HAS HAD A STEERING PROBLEM. IT VEERS OR WANDERS TO THE LEFT OR FIGHT RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS (65-75MPH). NOT THE ALIGNMENT. VERY DANGEROUS IF THERE ARE OTHER VEHICLES BESIDE YOU. IS NOT DUE TO THE WIND - OCCURS ON WINDLESS DAYS. HAVE OWNED 25 CARS IN 50 YEARS, SOME TOYOTAS; THIS IS THE WORST - WILL NOT STAY STRAIGHT; BOTH DANGEROUS AND FATIGUING TO DRIVE. MUST FULLY FOCUS AND MAKE CONSTANT CORRECTIONS TO TRACK STRAIGHT. RECALL! UNSAFE! *TR

I PURCHASED A 2010 COROLLA IN AUGUST 2009. I DID NOT TEST DRIVE THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY BUT RATHER IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE DEALERSHIP. ONCE I STARTED DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED THAT THE STEERING SEEMED TOO LOOSE. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR 5000 MILE CHECK AND COMPLAINED ABOUT IT, I WAS TOLD THAT THE STEERING MECHANISM WAS FINE. I CONTINUED TO EXPERIENCE DIFFICULTLY DRIVING THE CAR IN SPEEDS GREATER THAN 50 - 55 MILES PER HOUR. I DON'T KNOW HOW ELSE TO DESCRIBE IT BUT IT FEELS LIKE I HAVE LITTLE CONTROL OVER THE CAR. I DEFINITELY HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS TO CONTROL THE CAR AND A SNEEZE OR CHANGING A RADIO STATION CAUSES THE CAR TO DRIFT OR SWERVE INTO ANOTHER LANE. THE CAR DOESN'T FEEL TIGHT TO THE ROAD, IT FEELS LIKE IT IS HYRDOPLANING. DRIVING IN A STIFF WIND IS CHALLENGING. ON THE 10,000 MILE CHECK UP, I COMPLAINED AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT MY COMPLAINT HAD BEEN NOTED. I QUESTION THE SAFETY OF THE CAR. *TR

I'VE DRIVEN THIS 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA FOR LESS THAN 500 MILES AND I STARTED TO NOTICED THAT IT'S VERY HARD TO KEEP THE CAR FROM VEERING OR DRIFTING TO THE LEFT . DRIFTING IS MORE NOTICEABLE WHEN CAR REACHES A SPEED OF 40MPH OR MORE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE AND ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THE CAR IS ALIGNED TO SPECIFICATION BY TOYOTA. I HOPE THIS CAR EPS (ELECTRIC POWER STEERING) GET RECALL SOON BEFORE IT CAUSES ACCIDENTS ACROSS THE NATION. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT CONTROL PANEL FOLLOWED BY AN UNEXPECTED ENGINE STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE COMPUTER MODULE. THE CONTACT HAD CONCERNS OF THE SAFETY RISK INVOLVED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 50. UPDATED 01/05/10 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT DID NOT COME ON UNTIL AFTER THE INCIDENT OCCURRED. THE CONSUMER WAS IN THE FAST LANE WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLED AND HE HAD TO PUSH THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD. THE DEALER FOUND AN INTERNAL SHORT IN THE ECU. UPDATED 01/07/10.*JB

WHEN COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN, IF THE PAVEMENT IS BUMPY, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING ON MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA ENGAGES, HINDERING THE SLOWING OF MY VEHICLE. THE LOSS OF BRAKING IS SCARY. THIS WAS NOT A ONE-TIME EVENT, IT HAPPENS WHENEVER APPLYING BRAKING WHILE ON A BUMPY SECTION OF ROAD. *TR

MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS BEEN DRIFTING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IF I TAKE MY EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND TO GLANCE AT MY REAR VIEW MIRROR OR SIDE VIEW MIRRORS, THE COROLLA WILL BEGIN TO DRIFT TO THE LEFT OR THE RIGHT. THE DRIFTING USUALLY BEGINS AROUND THE 40 MPH MARK. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY CLAIM THAT THEY ARE NOT FINDING ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. OCCASIONALLY, WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES HE NOTICED THE VEHCLE INCREASED IN SPEED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES OR BRAKE PEDAL. THE CONTACT HAS NOTICED THE FAILURE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 4500. UPDATED 3/24/10 *CN THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT TO THE FLOOR. THE CONSUMER ALSO STATED THE PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT HOLDING. UPDATED 06/28/10*JB

2010 COROLLA S WITH ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING (EPS). VEHICLE IS UNSTABLE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. WANDERS AND DRIFTS. NEEDS TO BE "ACTIVELY DRIVEN" IN ORDER TO TRACK STRAIGHT. VERY TIRING ON LONG DRIVES. DOES NOT INSTILL CONFIDENCE THAT VEHICLE COULD BE CONTROLLED DURING AN EMERGENCY SWERVE. *TR

I WOULD LIKE TO REPORT A TECHNICAL PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA COROLLA LE 2010, PURCHASED ON AUGUST 10, 2009 AT A DEALERSHIP: WORLD TOYOTA, 5800 PEACHTREE INDUSTRIAL BLVD, ATLANTA, GA, 30341, USA. THE TECHNICAL PROBLEM RELATES TO ELECTRIC POWER STEERING SYSTEM WHICH COMPROMISES STABILITY OF THE CAR DURING DRIVING. NAMELY, THE CAR DOES NOT FOLLOW ITS TRACK AND SPONTANEOUSLY STEERS LEFT OR RIGHT. AS A RESULT OF THIS CONSTANT PULLING, THE DRIVER NEEDS TO FIRMLY HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL, BUT EVEN THEN, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTROL THE CAR TO KEEP IT PERFECTLY IN TRACK. THE CAR FEELS EVEN MORE UNSTABLE AND PULLS FROM SIDE TO SIDE EVEN MORE PROMINENTLY WHEN DRIVING IN FULL TRAFFIC ON HIGHWAY AT A SPEED HIGHER THAN 40 MPH, SUCH AS ATLANTA, GA, WHERE I LIVE. I FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM WHEN TEST DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON AUGUST 10, 2009, BUT A SALES REPRESENTATIVE AT WORLD TOYOTA SUGGESTED THAT THIS WAS DUE TO THE ELECTRIC STEERING AND TOLD ME I NEEDED TO GET USED TO IT. DESPITE THIS PROBLEM, I STILL DECIDED TO BUY THE CAR. BECAUSE THE CAR'S INSTABILITY ON THE ROAD DID NOT IMPROVE WITH TIME, I HAD THIS PROBLEM REVIEWED BY TOYOTA SERVICE TECHNICIANS AT THE WORLD TOYOTA DEALERSHIP DURING MY 1000 MILE MAINTENANCE CHECK ON SEPTEMBER 18, 2009 AND 5000 MILE CHECK ON JANUARY 09, 2010. DURING 1000 MILE MAINTENANCE CHECK, I WAS SUGGESTED TO DRIVE THE CAR UNTIL 5000 MILES TO SEE WHETHER I WOULD GET USED TO IT. DURING 5000 MILE MAINTENANCE, I WAS GIVEN TO TEST DRIVE ANOTHER TOYOTA COROLLA LE 2010 WITH A NEWER MANUFACTURE DATE AND THIS CAR WAS MORE STABLE AND HELD MUCH BETTER ON THE ROAD. TOYOTA SERVICE TECHNICIAN TESTED MY CAR AS WELL AND ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM, HOWEVER, DID NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. THE ALIGNMENT WAS CHECKED ON BOTH DATES, SEPTEMBER 18, 2009 AND JANUARY 09, 2010, WITH NO IDENTIFICATION OF POSSIBLE CAUSES TO PULLING. AT THIS POINT, TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IS NOT DOING ANYTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, ON THE SECOND DAY AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHICH MADE IT HARD TO CONTINUE DRIVING STRAIGHT WITHOUT MOVING FROM THE LEFT AND THE RIGHT. HE THOUGHT THAT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW IT WOULD ADJUST OVER TIME AND BEGAN TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. AFTER TEN DAYS HE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THE STEERING FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 711. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 6,000. UPDATED 03/24/10 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAS TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT THE STEERING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE STRAIGHT. UPDATED 06/30/10.*JB

I WANT TO SHARE MY EXPERIENCE WITH TOYOTA COROLLA THAT I BOUGHT FROM GERMAIN TOYOTA IN SARASOTA IN JULY OF 2009. WHILE DRIVING ON I-275, I APPLIED BRAKES. FOR A MOMENT THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK, AND CAR KEPT RACING. I SENT CAR BACK TO DEALER, THE DEALER INSPECTED THE CAR AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES PLEASE NOTE, I RAISED THE ISSUE WITH DEALER IN AUG 2009, MUCH BEFORE THE OFFICIAL RECALL WAS ORDERED. THE DEALER WAS CONCERNED AND DID TOW THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND HAD THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY INSPECTED. I HAVE DEALER REPORT, AND THIS INCIDENT IS RECORDED WITH THE DEALER.*TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE DRIFTS TO THE RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD. HE STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAS ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING THEREFORE IT IS A FABRIC DEFECT. HE WILL TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER, AND DEMAND A BUY BACK. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 800. THE VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER WAS UNAVAILABLE.

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA LOOSE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOORMAT BETWEEN LODGED BETWEEN BRAKE PEDAL AND ACCELERATOR CAUSES CAR TO ACCELERATE WHILE TRYING TO STOP. ALREADY CAUSED TWO REAR-END COLLISIONS. FACTORY-PROVIDED FLOOR MAT AND HOLDDOWN CLIPS WERE NEVER INSTALLED BY THE FACTORY OR THE DEALER. WE WERE UNSUCCESSFUL IN GETTING ANY HELP FROM TOYOTA SALES, USA, OR RICE TOYOTA, LOCAL DEALER. *TR

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA LE HAS BRAKE PROBLEM ON BUMPY ROADS. THE BRAKE SEEMS TO HAVE HIT SOMETHING WHEN THE CAR BUMPS DUE TO ROAD CONDITIONS, AND AFFECTS THE EFFECTIVENESS OF BRAKING. A FRIEND WHO HAS THE EXACT MODEL ALSO HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. HAVE COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND WAS LOOKED AT, BUT SAYING EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL; HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM EXISTS. *TR

2010 TOYOTA COROLLA...STEERING TROUBLES.........PICKED UP THE CAR JULY 2 2009....FOUND THE CAR HARD TO KEEP IN LANE WHEN ON HIGHWAY.....NEED TO ALWAYS CORRECT THE STEERING...IN OTHER WORDS...YOU HAVE TO CONSTANTLY MOVE STEERING WHEEL LRLRLR..WHEN ON HIGHWAY..........TOOK IT BACK TO TOYOTA IN AUG 2009....THEY LOOKED AT IT AND SAID ALL WAS FINE.......I TOLD THEM I WOULD MONITOR IT FOR 6 MONTHS.......TROUBLE STILL EXIST 6 MONTHS LATER.........I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT AT TOYOTA ON SAT 02-27-2010........WILL INSIST ON SOMETHING BEING DONE TO MAKE STEERING NORMAL.......I HAVE HEARD REPORTS ON RADIO THE PAST FEW WEEKS...AND....DECIDED TO FILL OUT THIS FORM....I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL AND EXCLUSIVE TOYOTA DRIVER SINCE 1985. *TR

THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING IN MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA LE. THE CAR DRIFTS SIDE TO SIDE MAKING IT HARD TO KEEP IT IN A STRAIGHT LINE. I COMPLAINED IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID THE STEERING IS ACTING AS DESIGNED. I CONTINUE TO QUESTION IT EVERY TIME I HAVE IT SERVICED. *TR

THE BRAKING ON MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA LE SEEMS TO BE DEFECTIVE. WHEN APPROACHING ANY TYPE OF CHANGE IN THE ROAD SURFACE THAT REQUIRES ME TO PUT MY FOOT LIGHTLY ON THE BRAKE A VIBRATION AND WEIRD FEELING IN THE BRAKE PEDAL TAKE PLACE. IT'S STARTLING WHEN IT HAPPENS. MY WIFE HAS EXPERIENCED IT FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE AND IS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. I'VE EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAY IT'S NORMAL. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THIS CAR . I BOUGHT A TOYOTA FOR IT'S SAFETY AND RELIABILITY SO FAR I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 60 MPH, THE STEERING BECAME VERY HARD AND DIFFICULT TO TURN. HE WOULD HAVE TO PULL ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN THE FAILURE OCCURRED TO KEEP THE VEHICLE CENTERED IN ITS LANE. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT RE-CENTER ITSELF WHEN MAKING A TURN DURING THE FAILURE. THE DEALER ADVISED THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE BECAUSE THE STEERING BOX WAS ELECTRONIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 285 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 3,270.

I DRIVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM; ESPECIALLY IF I AM TRYING TO APPLY THE BRAKE TO SLOW THE CAR AND AM MAKING A RIGHT TURN(EVEN SLIGHTLY TURNING RIGHT). IT'S LIKE THE BRAKES LOCK UP AND THE STEERING GETS LIKE A MAC TRUCK. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN I GO OVER A BUMP AND/OR POTHOLE. IT MOST RECENTLY EVEN HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND THERE WAS A SLIGHT RIGHT CURVE IN THE ROAD AND I WASN'T APPLYING THE BRAKES. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY AND THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. WITHIN AN HOUR OF LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP; IT HAPPENED TWICE YET THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE A BRAND NEW CAR AND AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT. SUPPOSEDLY MY CAR WASN'T RECALLED FOR THE GAS PEDAL BECAUSE IT WAS MADE IN JAPAN BUT FEEL LIKE THE GAS PEDAL IS STICKY AT TIMES. I AM VERY UPSET BECAUSE I JUST PUT ALL THIS MONEY OUT AND I HAVE AN UNSAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE. MY DAUGHTER AND I WERE GOING TO TRY AND DRIVE ACROSS COUNTRY THIS SUMMER AND NOW WE CANNOT POSSIBLY FOR WE DONOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS CAR. TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE TO BUY BACK THE VEHICLES. I BELIEVE THERE IS A MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM CAUSING ALL THIS THAT THEY ARE NOT ADMITTING AND/OR HAVE NOT FOUND YET. I DIDN'T COMPLAIN OR TAKE THE CAR BACK RIGHT AWAY BECAUSE I HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE SCION XD AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG AGAIN AND AGAIN. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA AND STATED WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED OVER 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE WILL DRIFT FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. THIS WOULD MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE DRIVER TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER WHERE THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE DEALER ADVISED THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING NORMALLY. THE CONTACT FELT THIS WAS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE UNDER 200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO DRIFT TO THE LEFT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR INSPECTION.

THE DEALER STATED IT MUST BE A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE SYSTEM. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5082.

I HAVE A 2010 COROLLA 4 DR LE MODEL, WHICH I BOUGHT IN JULY 2009. I CONTINUE TO NOTICE THAT THE CAR "WANDERS" ON THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING; GENERALLY IT IS REALLY NOTICEABLE ABOUT 50 MPH. WHEN THERE ARE WINDY CONDITIONS (FREQUENT IN KANSAS), I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT MY DIRECTION OF TRAVEL SINCE THE WIND EXACERBATES THE WANDERING OF THE VEHICLE. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS DUE TO THE CROWN OF THE PARTICULAR ROAD, BUT IT DOES IT ON ALL ROADS. MY WIFE HAS DRIVEN THE CAR AND NOTICED THE SAME THING. I HAVE NOT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, BUT IT CONCERNS ME THAT A CAR WOULD NOT DRIVE IN A REASONABLE STRAIGHT LINE. THIS IS THE VERY FIRST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED THAT DID IT; IT IS NOT THE FIRST TOYOTA I'VE EVER OWNED, AND HAVE NEVER EVER HAD SUCH A PROBLEM. I CANNOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE OF INCIDENT, AS IT DOES IT ALL THE TIME, SO I WILL INDICATE THE DELIVERY DATE OF THE VEHICLE TO ME. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA.

INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6) TOYOTA COROLLA 2010 STEERING IS DANGEROUS ABOVE 40 MPH, THE CAR WON'T STAY IN IT'S LANE AND IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT CONSTANT COUNTER STEERING. INTERSTATE SPEEDS REQUIRES NERVES OF STEEL AND I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT TO EVEN THE BEST DRIVER. THIS CAR IS DANGEROUS AND THE LOCAL DEALER SAYS EVERYTHING IS FINE. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THIS CAR OVER 65 MPH, EVEN ON THE INTERSTATE, VERY TIRING AND STRESSFUL TO TRAVEL IN THIS CAR (AT SPEED). THIS CAR HAS HANDLED LIKE THIS SINCE NEW..NO CORRECTIVE ACTION (FIX) FROM THE DEALER AS OF 3-8-2010 [XXX] *TR

I BOUGHT A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA S IN JUNE OF 2009. WHENEVER I WOULD BE DRIVING ON ROUGH AND UNEVEN ROADS AND HAD TO USE MY BRAKES THEY WOULD NOT WORK. THE CAR WOULD KEEP MOVING FORWARD WITHOUT SLOWING DOWN WHEN I WOULD APPLY MY BRAKES. THIS HAPPENED ALL OF THE TIME EVEN AFTER I TOOK MY CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO INSPECT AND FIX THE PROBLEM. I TOLD THEM ABOUT THIS WHEN I WOULD TAKE MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND THE MECHANIC ASSURED ME THAT IF THERE WERE ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY BRAKES THAT THEY WOULD FIND IT AND FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DO A COMPLETE CHECK OF MY CAR AND IT FUNCTIONS WHEN THE DO THE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AND CAR DIAGNOSTIC. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM STILL CONTINUED AND I HAD ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ON MY CAR 3 DIFFERENT TIMES. MY CAR WAS ALSO TAKEN TO THE SAME TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM DURING TIMES IT DID NOT NEED MAINTENANCE AND AFTER TAKING MY ENTIRE BREAK SYSTEM APART AND STILL NOT FINDING ANYTHING, THEY TOLD ME THAT EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. HOWEVER, THIS WAS NOT THE CASE BECAUSE THE FIRST UNEVEN ROAD I DROVE ON MY BREAKS DID NOT WORK PROPERLY AND THE VSC SYMBOL IMMEDIATELY CAME ON AND MY CAR STARTED MAKING THIS CONSTANT ANNOYING BEEPING SOUND THAT WOULDN'T GO AWAY. THEREFORE I CALLED TOYOTA TELLING THEM ABOUT IT AND THEY SAID TO BRING THE CAR BACK, SO I DID. THEY SAID THEY FOUND A LEAK IN ONE OF MY HOSES. SOMETHING THAT THEIR CAR DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER NEVER CAUGHT WHEN I INITIALLY COMPLAINED TO TOYOTA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHICH EXISTED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. AFTER GETTING THE CAR BACK THIS TIME THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO IMPROVE A LITTLE BUT WAS STILL MOVING FORWARD WHEN I WOULD BREAK ON UNEVEN AND ROUGH ROADS.....I ALSO TOLD THE TOYOTA PEOPLE THAT THE BREAK PROBLEM THE PRIUS WAS HAVING SEEMED TO BE THE SAME BRAKE PROBLEM MY COROLLA WAS HAVING. ALTHOUGH I AM AWARE THAT THE BRAKE SYSTEM IN THE PRIUS IS PROBABLY DIFFERENT FROM THAT OF MY COROLLA, BECAUSE THE PRIUS IS A HYBRID. PERHAPS THERE IS A CONNECTION. *TR

BOUGHT BRAND NEW 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA IN MAY 2009. WHEN DRIVING ON FREEWAY FEELS LIKE CAR WILL CHANGE LANE AUTOMATICALLY. ALSO FEELS LIKE DRIVING CAR IN THE WINDY CONDITION. WHEN YOU LEAVE THE STEERING WHEEL, I THINK CAR IS SUPPOSE TO GO STRAIGHT, BUT CAR PULLS EITHER ON RIGHT OR LEFT SIDE. *TR

TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE CALLED AND TALKED 3 OR 4 TIMES TO THE LOCALTOYOTA DEALERSHIP (FOLSOM LAKE TOYOTA, FOLSOM, CA) IN THE LAST YEAR TRYING TO GET MY CAR REPAIRED. THIS LAST WEEK I WAS TOLD THEY HAVE THE PARTS BUT THEY WEREN'T INTERESTED IN HAVING ME BRING THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR.
