VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE, EXPERIENCED SUDDEN ACCELERATION, WHILE FOOT ON BRAKE . UNABLE TO STOP CAR, IT JUMPED THE CURB AND HIT A TREE. THE TREE STOPPED THE CAR, HOWEVER THE WHEELS MUST HAVE KEPT GOING, AS THERE WAS DIRT TORN UP AND SPEWED BEHIND THE TIRES. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. TOYOTA NOTIFIED. CAR TOWED TO DEALER. TOYOTA INVESTIGATION PENDING, WHICH ACCORDING TO TOYOTA MAY TAKE UP TO 2 MONTHS. TOYOTA SAID THIS 2006 COROLLA WAS NOT ON 'RECALL' LIST. THEY ALSO SAID THEY WILL INVESTIGATE BUT DO NOT EXPECT TO FIND IT TO BE THEIR FAULT, AS THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER FOUND THEMSELVES TO BE 'AT FAULT' WHEN THE CAR WAS NOT ON THE 'RECALL LIST'. *TR
2010
FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA (VIN# [XXX] ) PURCHASED ON OCT 31 2009 FROM SANSONEAUTOMALL, NJ. THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE STEERING COLUMN INITIALLY WHICH STARTED WITH SOME UNIQUE SOUND, THEN FROM FEB 2010 I WAS SERIOUSLY FACING STEERING FREEZE (WILL GET HARDEN) ONLY 15-20% OF STEERING MOVES WHEN IN 0' SPEED, FOR THIS I HAVE VISITED MY DEALER SERVICE CENTER 3 TIMES BUT THERE IS NO USE. ONLY WITH LOT OF DISAPPOINTMENT AND ARGUMENTS SAYING "WHAT IS THE REASON TO BUY A BRAND NEW CAR TO GET PROBLEMS" I WAS REQUESTING TO SOLVE MY PROBLEM. THEY SIMPLY SAID, THERE IS NOTHING WE CAN DO IF YOU HAVE NO OTHER MEAN TO COMMUTE ITS UPTO YOU AND IF YOU WANT YOU CALL TOYOTA HEAD QUARTERS FOR THIS. I EVEN SPENT LOT OF TIME IN CALLING MAIN TOYOTA NR BUT SIMPLY I GET VOICE MESSAGE THAT "THERE IS HUGE VOLUME OF CALL WAITING PLEASE WAIT". I REALLY WONDER WHEN I/ANYONE BUY A CAR FROM DEALER AND IF THEY CANNOT RECEIVE ME ASSIST ME PROPERLY "WHERE FROM I GET THE JUSTICE????". RECENTLY I FOUND TWO MORE NEW PROBLEMS THEY ARE: IN A SLOPE ROAD CAR PICKS-UP ACCELERATION AND MAINTAINS SPEED AS IF IT IS CRUISED AND ONCE I APPLY BREAK AFTER A WHILE THE SPEED COMES TO NORMAL POSITION OTHER PROB- FUEL INDICATOR STUCK UP TO FULL LEVEL INDI' EVEN THE FUEL IS LOW. WITH THIS I'M DAY BY DAY GETTING DEPRESSED AS I SPENT QUITE LOT OF SAVINGS (MONEY) ON THE CAR TO AVOID ANY HASSLES BUYING A USED CAR, BUT UNFORTUNATELY ITS A DISASTER TO ME. I REQUEST TO PROVIDE ME NEEDED SOLUTION TO FIX MY DEPRESSING SITUATION. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
