What 187 owners told NHTSA about the 2017 Toyota Corolla Im

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.

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.

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.

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..

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.

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
