2017 Toyota Corolla Owner Complaints

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON I95 FROM SOUTH TO NORTH (AFTER EXIT 6 IN PA) TOWARDS PHILLY AIRPORT ON 7/22/2017 AND THE CAR WAS HIT AT THE REAR BY ANOTHER CAR. CAR WAS SPAN AND STOPPED. THANK TO GOD THAT SHE IS OK. HOWEVER, THE CAR WAS TOTALED BY THE INSURANCE. OUR CONCERN WAS NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED. OUR COLLISION CENTER AS WELL AS TOYOTA DOESN'T KNOW WHY. NEED YOUR HELP AS WELL AS IT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN TO SOMEONE.

TAKATA RECALL

WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ENGAGED AND THE VEHICLE IS ON A DECLINE THE CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT MAINTAIN THE SET SPEED. DEPENDING ON THE SEVERITY OF THE DECLINE THE SPEED WILL INCREASE FROM 5 TO 15 MPH. WHEN USING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND MAINTAINING THE EXACT SAME PRESSURE THE VEHICLE ONLY INCREASES SPEED MINIMALLY (2 TO 3 MPH) ON THE DECLINE. WHEN IN CRUISE CONTROL THE SPEED INCREASE IS VERY DRASTIC. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP HAS STATED THAT THIS IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE AND THAT THEY HAVE TESTED SEVERAL SAME MODEL AND YEAR TOYOTA VEHICLES AND ALL HAVE THE SAME SPEEDING TENDENCIES SO THIS IS NORMAL. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE FIX IS TO ENGAGE THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION MODE TO USE THE ENGINE COMPRESSION TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOWN. I HAVE FOLLOWED THERE ADVICE AND THIS DOES NOT RECTIFY THE PROBLEM. THE CRUISE CONTROL IN ALL VEHICLES I HAVE OWNED IS USED TO MAINTAIN A CONSISTENT SPEED NO MATTER THE TERRAIN BEING TRAVERSED. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED EVERY TIME WE HAVE ENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON THE VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY THAT HAS A DECLINE. *TR

WHILE USING CRUISE CONTROL ON FAIRLY LEVEL ROADWAY, (RURAL ROAD) AT A SPEED OF 45 MPH, THE RPM WERE ABOUT 1500, BUT INCREASED SUDDENLY TO ABOUT 4500 RPM. AFTER AWHILE THE RPM WOULD DROP BACK DOWN TO NORMAL FOR THE SPEED SITUATION. THIS OCCURS ALSO AT HIGHWAY SPEED OF 60 MPH IN OUR AREA. THIS OCCURRENCE HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES. HAVE RETURNED TO DEALER TWICE NOW. PROBLEM WAS OBSERVED BY SERVICE MANAGER AND LOCAL TOYOTA REP WHO WAS IN TOWN FOR LOCAL AUTO SHOW. CAR WAS ANALYZED AND DATA SEND TO ENGINEER IN CALIFORNIA WHO LATER SAID CAR IS BEHAVING NORMAL. I FOUND THAT HARD TO BELIEVE AS BOTH LOANER CARS (2017 COROLLA) DID NOT BEHAVE IN THIS DANGEROUS FASHION. I FEEL THIS QUICK BRUSH OFF BY THE ENGINEER (TANAKA) WHO IS ONLY OBSERVING DATA AND NOT HAVING TO DRIVE THIS CAR IS WRONG. I FEEL THE COMPUTER SHOULD BE ADJUSTED FOR THE CVT TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM. WIFE DOES NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. WE HAVE TAKEN 3 VIDEOS TO DOCUMENT THIS EVENT.

PURCHASED CAR ON 04/30/17 AND SIX DAYS LATER, GOT A MALFUNCTION WARNING MESSAGE FOR THE FRONT CAMERA DURING CAR START UP. CAMERA IS PART OF THE NEW STANDARD SAFETY SENSE PACKAGE. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO CORRECT ISSUE AND ORDERED A NEW CAMERA. INDICATED THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF ANY PREVIOUS KNOWN ISSUES WITH THE CAMERA. DEALER TOOK LONGER THAN USUAL SINCE THEY HAVE NEVER REPLACED A CAMERA BEFORE AND HAD NO CLUE HOW TO RECALIBRATE.

WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME FROM WORK AND ABOUT 5 MINUTES AFTER I STARTED IT AND BEGAN TO DRIVE, I WENT OVER A SPEED BUMP GOING 5MPH AND SUDDENLY MY THEFT ALARM SYSTEM STARTS GOING OFF AND INCESSANTLY HONKING. MY HAZARD LIGHTS ALSO BEGAN TO BLINK AND MY HIGH BEAMS TURNED ON. I PULLED OVER AND PRESSED MY SMART KEY ALARM MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL THE ALARM STOPPED. EVERY TIME I WOULD HIT ANY SORT OF BUMP OR USE MY TURN SIGNAL SWITCH, THE ALARM AND HEADLIGHTS LIGHTS WOULD START GOING OFF. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG. THEY SAID IT IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, BUT NOT A TOYOTA ONE. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE SINCE TOYOTA ENGINEERS THE ELECTRIC COMPONENTS.

ON 3/22/17 I WAS DRIVING AN ENTERPRISE RENTAL CAR INTO AN APARTMENT COMPLEX AND PULLED IN FRONT OF THE LEASING OFFICE TO PARK. WHILE STEPPING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL THE CAR DID NOT STOP AND IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED CAUSING THE CAR TO CRASH INTO THE PILLARS OF THE LEASING OFFICE WITH FORCE. AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND MY PASSENGER AND I HAD TO CRAWL OUT OF THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR TO ESCAPE THE VEHICLE. WE ARE LUCKY TO BE ALIVE AND ESCAPE WITH MINOR INJURIES. THERE ARE DRAG SKID MARKS ON THE GROUND FROM THE REAR WHEELS. UPON COLLISION THE ENGINE SHUT OFF EVEN THOUGH THE KEY WAS IN THE RUN POSITION..

3/24/2017

WHILE COMING TO A STOP AT A STOPLIGHT, A CAR COME OUT IF NO WHERE. I TRIED TO SLAM ON THE BRAKE TO COME TO A STOP FASTER BUT THE BREAKING SYSTEM DID NOT REACT TO THE PEDAL BEING PRESSED DOWN. I WAS MET WITH A STIFF PEDAL AND I COULD FEEL THE BRAKES PUSHING BACK WHICH CAUSED ME TO HIT ANOTHER CAR THAT HAD ALREADY ENTERED INTO AN INTERSECTION.

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW IN APRIL OF 2017 AND HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS, TIRES ARE ALWAYS FLAT, STEERING DOESN'T WORK RIGHT, WHEN I TURN MY CAR ON IT SOUNDS REALLY LOUD. BROUGHT IT TOYOTA 10 TIMES AND THEY DID ANYTHING, THERE IS CONSTANT SQUEAK NOISE AND MY ROOF FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING TO BLOW OFF WHEN I AM ON THE INTERSTATE. GAS MILEAGE SUCKS TOYOTA STATES I GOT BAD GAS SO THEY FLUSHED IT OUT BUT STILL HEAR THAT LOUD NOISE. MY TIRES I HAVE TO FILL UP ONCE A WEEK BUT THEY SAY THEY ARE FINE. EVERYTHING IN THIS CAR IS CHEAP AND I HATE IT. THEY CHARGED ME 26 GRAND FOR A 17 THOUSAND CAR WITHOUT ME EVER KNOWING BRANDON TOYOTA IS THE WORST. SPOKE TO THE GENERAL MANAGER AND SERVICE MANAGER NOTHING IS EVER TAKEN CARE OF

I WAS DRIVING HOME ON HAMILTON ROAD, IN COLUMBUS, OHIO, AT 535PM. I NOTICED THAT MY HEADLIGHTS WEREN'T ON, WHEN OTHER DRIVERS WERE TRYING TO WORN ME. I SET MY HEADLIGHTS ON AUTOMATIC WHEN I FIRST RECEIVED THE CAR. I FINALLY FOUND THE SWITCH TO TURN MY HEADLIGHTS ON MANUALLY. THEN MY CAR STARTED TO BRAKE 10-15 FEET FROM THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, MY TIRES WERE SQUEALING. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL IT WAS STILL ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT WAS TOO LATE I HIT THE SUV IN FRONT ME. MY AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. THE ACCIDENT AVOIDANCE SYSTEM DIDN'T ACTIVATE UNTIL TO LATE. IT IS CLEAR THAT THE CAR RESPONDED AFTER THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH WAS MANUALLY TURNED ON INSTEAD OF BEING IN THE AUTO POSITION. IT WAS SUGGESTED AT A DEALERSHIP EARLIER THAT CYCLING THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM ON THE CAR COULD INADVERTENTLY DISARM IT. IF THAT WERE THE CASE AND IT WAS OFF ACCIDENTLY WHY DID THE CAR TRY TO BRAKE AT THE LAST SECOND ON ITS OWN BY TURNING ON THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED FOR THE DRIVER FOR THE VERY REASONS OF ITS SAFETY FEATURES UNFORTUNATELY THIS CAR COMPLETELY FAILED TO PROTECT THE DRIVER. THAT IS WHY I FEEL LIKE THIS SHOULD BE LOOKED AT IMMEDIATELY TO SEE IF THIS IS A MECHANICAL ISSUE, PROGRAM ISSUE, OR SIMPLY DRIVER ERROR, WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE AT THIS POINT. I HAVE PHOTOS OF VEHICLE AND INTERIOR WHICH I AM UNABLE TO UPLOAD ON THIS SITE, THEY ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

MOTOR, POWER TRAIN...

1/8/2018

BOUGHT THE CAR LAST APRIL, IT HAS GIVEN ME NO PROBLEMS, UNTIL NOW. THE CAR START TO LOOSE ACCELERATION WHEN DRIVING ALMOST GOT INTO TWO CAR ACCIDENT ON THE ROAD, CALLED TOYOTA BUT THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME TO INSPECT THE CAR, THE CAR SEEMS TO BE STUCK ON GEARS LIKE IF IT WAS ON NEATRUAL.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, THE CAR WILL JERK HARD LIKE SOMEONE IS PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR DOWN ALL THE WAY WHILE I HAVE THE BRAKES ENGAGED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ONLY 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 2 YEARS.... BUT IT IS ENOUGH TIMES THAT IS REALLY SCARES MYSELF AND MY KIDS. THE FILTERS (CABIN FILTER?) ALWAYS STINKS LIKE MOLD. MY SON HAS ACUTE ASTHMA AND I HAVE TO CHANGE IT OUT EVERY 2 OR 3 MONTHS TO KEEP HIM FROM HAVING AN ASTHMA ATTACK. THE BLUE TOOTH (HANDS FREE PHONE), THE CALLER ON THE OTHER END CAN NOT HEAR ANYTHING, BUT A WINDY NOISE LIKE I AM IN A WIND TUNNEL--- AND FORGET ABOUT EVEN TALKING ON IT ABOVE SPEEDS OF 40 MPH!! THE ROAD NOISE IS WORSE THAN MY 2002 SEBRING CONVERTIBLE THAT I USED TO HAVE. THE STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT LET ME SCROLL DOWN THE PHONE NUMBERS LIKE MY 2015 COROLLA USED TO LET ME DO. I WILL PROBABLY NEVER PAY FOR A 2017 CORROLLA CASH AGAIN. TOO MANY ISSUES.

5/31/2018

WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME FROM WORK AND ABOUT 5 MINUTES AFTER I STARTED IT AND BEGAN TO DRIVE, I WENT OVER A SPEED BUMP GOING 5MPH AND SUDDENLY MY THEFT ALARM SYSTEM STARTS GOING OFF AND INCESSANTLY HONKING. MY HAZARD LIGHTS ALSO BEGAN TO BLINK AND MY HIGH BEAMS TURNED ON. I PULLED OVER AND PRESSED MY SMART KEY ALARM MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL THE ALARM STOPPED. EVERY TIME I WOULD HIT ANY SORT OF BUMP OR USE MY TURN SIGNAL SWITCH, THE ALARM AND HEADLIGHTS LIGHTS WOULD START GOING OFF. I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA AND THEY CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT'S WRONG. THEY SAID IT IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE, BUT NOT A TOYOTA ONE. THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE SINCE TOYOTA ENGINEERS THE ELECTRIC COMPONENTS.

9/17/2017

THE AUTOMATIC HIGH/LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT SYSTEM INTERMITTENTLY STOPS WORKING. WITH THE SWITCH IN CORRECT POSITION, EVERYTHING IS WORKING AS EXPECTED, THEN THE AUTO INDICATOR ON DASH GOES OFF AND THE LIGHTS STAY ON LOW BEAMS, EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC OR TAIL LIGHTS AHEAD. THIS MAY ONLY BE FOR ABOUT A MINUTE TO SEVERAL MINUTES. WITH THE AUTO INDICATOR OFF, I AM STUCK ON LOW BEAMS. WHEN THE AUTO INDICATOR COMES BACK ON, THE SYSTEM FUNCTIONS NORMALLY. DURING THE TIME THE AUTO INDICATOR IS OFF, I CANNOT GET HIGH BEAMS UNLESS I TURN THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH FROM AUTO TO ON. THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE I HAVE TO MANUALLY CHANGE THE SWITCH SETTING AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF WHILE THE SWITCH IS MOVED. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE LAST TIME BEING 11/5/2018.

11/6/2018

PROBLEM IS THE WINDSHIELD. PART OF THE WHINDSHILED REFLECTS PICTURE OF THE DASHBOARD WHILE DRIVING UNDER CERTAIN SUNLIGHT CONDITION. PICTURE OF THE DASHBOARD APPEARS ON THE WINDSHIELD UNDER CERTAIN SUNLIGHT CONDATION. . THE BOTTOM OF THE WINDSHIELD WORKS LIKE A MIRROR. PICTURE GOES AND COMES DEPENDING ON THE REFLECTING OF SUNGLIGHT

7/14/2017

1917 TOYOTA COROLLA HAS A DESIGN FLAW. WHEN SUN SHINES ON WINDSHIELD THE DASHBOARD IMAGE APPEARS ON WINDSHIELD AND IMPEDE VISIBILITY. I REPORTED MATTER TO TOYOTA CORPORATION AND A CASE NO. 1800320050 WAS SET UP BY ONE PATTY. HER PHONE NO 1-800-331-4331. I WAS SEND TO LIBERTY TOYOTA THE DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, AND REFER THE MATTER TO TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS.

4/4/2018

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.

2/19/2018

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.

THIS EVENING I PLAN WITH MY FAMILY TO GO OUT AND ONCE I GET NEAR TO MY CAR I SAW MY REAR SCREEN IS SHATTERED AND I WONDERED WHAT CAUSE THIS AND FOUND NO IMPACT BY ANYTHING EXTERNAL. I TOOK SOME PICS AND LOOK MORE IN DETAIL AND FOUND THAT IT WAS SHATTERED ITSELF DESPITE IT WAS NOT VERY HOT OR COLD WEATHER. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT IT AS WHAT IT HAVE HAPPENED HAVING MY LITTLE KID IN CAR OR MY WIFE. PAYING REASONABLE COST OF VEHICLE AND GETTING POOR SAFETY MAKE ME THINK OF LOGGING THIS COMPLAINT AND I AM SURE SOMEONE WILL LOOK IN TO IT AND WILL RAISE THIS CONCERN WITH AUTHORITIES AND PUBLIC SAFETY NOTICE TOO WITH COROLLA OWNERS/DRIVERS.

MY EMERGENCY BRAKE SENSOR DIDN'T GO OFF AS WELL WHICH USUALLY ALWAYS GOES OF FOR ANY MINIMAL CLOSE OBJECT. BECAUSE OF MY AIR BAG NOT DEPLOYING I CUT MY LIP OUTSIDE AND INSIDE GOING TO THE HOSPITAL AND GETTING A STITCH IN THE INSIDE OF MY LIP. I HAD A HOLE THE WIDTH OF A DIME FROM HITTING THE STEERING WHEEL AND BLED NON STOP FROM MY NOSE AND LIP/MOUTH. THE HOSPITAL HAS IN MY CHART THE PICTURE OF THE HOLE.

1/21/2021

I HAD TO DRIVE AROUND 600 MILES TO AND FROM FAMILY FUNERAL. AS OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THE CRUISE CONTROL ON A DOWN HILL SLOPE GOES OUT OF CONTROL. AS I REACHED THE TOP OF A HILL AND STARTED DOWN THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD ACCELERATE TO 4000 RPM ( IT IS REALLY LOUD) THE SPEED WOULD START INCREASING AND GO 15-20 MPH OVER WHAT THE CRUISE CONTROL SPEED WAS SET AT. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL TO REGAIN CONTROL OVER THE SPEED. I WAS AFRAID THAT SOMETHING MIGHT HAPPEN IF I DID NOT. WHERE IT SEEMED MY CAR SHOULD DOWN SHIFT IT WAS NOT. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE PROGRAMMING OF THE CRUISE CONTROL. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A DECLINE. ALSO, AT ONE POINT WHEN I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE AND A CAR PASSED ME ON THE RIGHT, MY CAR SLOWED DOWN REALLY QUICKLY. IF SOMEONE HAD BEEN BEHIND ME IT COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. THIS IS MY FOURTH TOYOTA AND I HAVE NEVER HAD THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE.

I was traveling on the interstate home from work one night, I was kinda tired, I put on my turning signal to let the person behind me know I was getting in the right lane know when all of a sudden a car sped by, the blind spot warnings didn’t come on at all, as a matter of fact I only saw them appear only twice since I had this car and they haven’t been on since and I’ve had this car for a week and two days, that’s an accident waiting to happen.
