I PURCHASED THE CAR 4/22/11, TWO WEEKS LATER IT BEGAN JERKING AND BUCKING. I THOUGHT IT WAS ME SO AT FIRST I DID NOT SAY ANYTHING. AFTER SOME TIME IT BECAME A REGULAR OCCURRENCE. THEN ON 2 OCCASIONS IT ACCELERATED ON IT'S OWN. EVEN WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES IT WAS NOT SLOWING DOWN. FINALLY IT DID BUT I WAS SCARED I WAS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO STOP. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND, OF COURSE, IT DID NOT DO IT. THEY CHECKED IT AND TOLD ME ALL WAS NORMAL. TWO DAYS LATER THE JERKING AND BUCKING RETURNED AND IT DROVE ITSELF AGAIN JUST THE OTHER DAY. THE JERKING AND BUCKING OCCURS BETWEEN 40 AND50 MPH. HOWEVER, THE OTHER DAY IT OCCURRED AT 35 AND 55. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE TACH. DIPS AND DIVES AND THE MPG GAUGE DROPS TO 99.9 . NO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. THIS CAR SCARES ME !!!!!!!!! I HAVE FOUND OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME PROBLEM AND DOING ALL THE SAME THINGS I AM DOING INCLUDING THIS REPORT BUT TO NO AVAIL. TOYOTA IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I CALLED THEM TO REPORT THIS ON TUESDAY 7/19/11 THEY GAVE ME A CASE # AND TOLD ME A MANAGER WOULD CALL ME BY FRIDAY. I RECEIVED NO CALL. *TR

THE CAR IS WANDERING SIDEWAYS AND YOU HAVE TO REALLY CONTROL AND FOCUS ON KEEPING THE WHEEL STRAIGHT TO STAY ON LANE. THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE IT IS LIKE YOU ARE ALWAYS DRIVING ON WINDY WEATHER WITH SEVERE WIND GUSTS. THIS HAPPENS ON HIGHWAY, WITH A SPEED OF 60 MPH OR HIGHER. THE ASSISTANT SERVICE MANAGER SAID IT COULD BE THE WHEEL ALIGNMENT BUT AFTER THEY ALIGNED IT AND CHECKED IT, THE PROBLEM REMAINS. I LIVE IN AN AREA WHERE WE GET SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF SNOW DURING WINTER AND I AM AFRAID OF MY SAFETY BECAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. *TR

MY NEW 2011 COROLLA LE MIGHT HAVE A SAFETY DEFECT IN THE TRANSMISSION OR FUEL SYSTEM. WHETHER AT FREEWAY OR LOCAL, I CAN FEEL THE PULL-BACK WHILE DRIVING. ACCORDINGLY, THE RPM WAS FOUND TO BE FLUCTUATED BETWEEN 100-400RPM DROPPING INSTANTLY (1-2S). IT HAPPENED A LOT. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE DEALER SERVICE TECHNICIANS DUPLICATED MY CONCERN (SUDDEN PULL-BACK). THEY EVEN FOUND THE PULL-BACK (OR RPM DROPS DOWN SUDDENLY) IN CRUISE CONTROL AT 60 MILES. THEN THEY OPENED THE CASE AND GOT THE FIELD TECHNICAL SPECIALISTS CHECK THIS PROBLEM. IT TAKES ONE WEEK AND THE REPORT SAID THAT "OTHER VEHICLES ARE CHECKED AND SAME THINGS OBSERVED. THIS VEHICLE WAS OPERATED AS DESIGNED AND NO REPAIR NECESSARY." BUT THE WEIRD THING IS THAT THE SERVICE MANAGER (HE IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS COMMUNICATED BETWEEN THESE SPECIALISTS AND ME) THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY ALSO THINK SOMETHING WAS WRONG (POSSIBLE SOFTWARE). THEY OFFERED ME A COUPLES OF MONTH PAYMENT CREDIT (700-1000$). AND THEY TOLD THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THEY CAN'T FIX IT AND HAVE TO HAVE THAT DONE IN JAPAN. IT TAKES A WHILE. NOW THE SERVICE MANAGER RECOMMENDED ME TO CLAIM TO THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND GET MY MONEY BACK. BUT THE TOYOTA CASE MANAGER IS BAD. HE INSISTED THAT IN TOYOTA'S POSITION, NOTHING WAS WRONG. HE DECLINED MY REQUEST. NOW, IT IS STILL IN THE PROCESSING. BUT I AM AFRAID THAT IT IS HARD TO GET MY MONEY BACK. I ALSO FOUND THE SAME COMPLAINT ONLINE. PLEASE HAVE A CHECK.

MY BRAND NEW CAR (53 MILES ON IT) SEEMS TO LOOSE POWER WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING AT 40 TO 50 MPH. I HAVE MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR MAINTAINING THE SPEED AND IT FEELS AS IF SOMEONE ELSE IS STEPPING ON THE BRAKE. YOU CAN FEEL THE SURGE OF THE POWER LOSS .IT DROPS QUICKLY BY ITSELF. ALSO WHEN MAINTAING THE SPEED OF 60 TO 65 ON THE FREEWAY I WILL LET OFF THE ACCELERTOR AND MY CAR MAINTAINS THAT SPEED AS IF I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL ON.IT DRIVES QIUTE A DISTANCE BEFORE EVER SLOWING DOWN. I TOOK IT TO DEALER BUT THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. BECAUSE I KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM!!!!! AND IF THEY TOOK IT FOR A DRIVE AS THEY SAID THEY DID (SEVERAL TIMES) THERE IS NO WAY THEY COULD NOT HAVE NOTICED THE BOGGING DOWN OF THE ENGINE.

AROUND 250-300 MILES I WENT OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 40 MPH AND WENT TO HIT THE BRAKES WHILE TAKING A TURN THAT WAS APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WOULD NOT LET ME PUSH THEM DOWN AND WOULD GIVE ME FEEDBACK AS IF ABS WAS ACTIVE. AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS I WAS ABLE TO REAPPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF EIGHT TIMES IN 2,100 MILES. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN SOME CLOSE CALLS, AND ALL THE INCIDENTS HAPPENED AFTER HITTING A DIP WHILE TRYING TO REDUCE MY SPEED FROM OVER 50 MPH TO THE TIME OF HITTING THE DIPS. IT FEELS LIKE ABS IS ACTIVATING, AND IN TURN NOT ALLOWING ME TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. ANOTHER INCIDENT HAPPENED AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY APPROACHING TRAFFIC AND I WENT OVER A DIP ON THE FREEWAY AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO STOP FOR ABOUT A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I REGAINED BRAKES WITH ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE A STOP, BUT I WOULD SAY IT WAS A SAFE STOP. I HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT WHERE THE BRAKES FAILED AS I WAS EXITING A FREEWAY AND I WOULD NOT APPLY MY BRAKES FOR THE FIRST TURN, AND I COULD ONLY APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES AFTER I STARTED TO ENTER THE SECOND TURN COMING WITHIN INCHES OF COLLIDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THESE NEAR ACCIDENTS WERE ENOUGH FOR ME TO REPORT IT TO TOYOTA. AFTER BRINGING IT TO TOYOTA, THEY TESTED THE CAR FOR 15 MILES AND TOLD ME IT WAS FUNCTIONING AS IT WAS ENGINEERED TO.

AROUND 250-300 MILES I WENT OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 40 MPH AND WENT TO HIT THE BRAKES WHILE TAKING A TURN THAT WAS APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WOULD NOT LET ME PUSH THEM DOWN AND WOULD GIVE ME FEEDBACK AS IF ABS WAS ACTIVE. AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS I WAS ABLE TO REAPPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF EIGHT TIMES IN 2,100 MILES. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN SOME CLOSE CALLS, AND ALL THE INCIDENTS HAPPENED AFTER HITTING A DIP WHILE TRYING TO REDUCE MY SPEED FROM OVER 50 MPH TO THE TIME OF HITTING THE DIPS. IT FEELS LIKE ABS IS ACTIVATING, AND IN TURN NOT ALLOWING ME TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. ANOTHER INCIDENT HAPPENED AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY APPROACHING TRAFFIC AND I WENT OVER A DIP ON THE FREEWAY AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO STOP FOR ABOUT A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I REGAINED BRAKES WITH ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE A STOP, BUT I WOULD SAY IT WAS A SAFE STOP. I HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT WHERE THE BRAKES FAILED AS I WAS EXITING A FREEWAY AND I WOULD NOT APPLY MY BRAKES FOR THE FIRST TURN, AND I COULD ONLY APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES AFTER I STARTED TO ENTER THE SECOND TURN COMING WITHIN INCHES OF COLLIDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THESE NEAR ACCIDENTS WERE ENOUGH FOR ME TO REPORT IT TO TOYOTA. AFTER BRINGING IT TO TOYOTA, THEY TESTED THE CAR FOR 15 MILES AND TOLD ME IT WAS FUNCTIONING AS IT WAS ENGINEERED TO. I AM POSITIVE THAT THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I BOUGHT IT ON 5/23/11 WITH 10 MILES ON IT, AND DROVE IT A TOTAL OF 2,150 MILES. *TR

I NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR MAT MOVED TO THE FRONT AND I AM AFRAID THAT THE FLOORMAT COULD JAM THE GAS PEDAL LIKE IT HAPPENED BEFORE. TO MY KNOWLEDGE THERE HAVE BEEN FATALITIES DUE TO GAS PEDALS JAMMED BY THE FLOORMAT ON PREVIOUS TOYOTA MODELS. TOYOTA CLAIMED THAT THE FLOOR MAT ISSUE WAS ADDRESSED BUT THE 2 CLIPS WHICH ARE SUPPOSED TO SECURE THE FLOORMAT ARE NOT STRONG ENOUGH. MY VEHICLE WAS NOT EVEN 3 YEARS OLD WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THAT THE FLOOR MAT CAN'T BE SECURED ANYMORE. THE TWO TINY PLASTIC HOOKS ARE BENT AND DON'T HOLD THE FLOOR MAT IN PLACE. *TR
