STEERING
WHEN I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR IT'S 3 MONTH CHECKUP, I INFORMED THEM THAT I WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES AND THE STEERING. I TOLD THEM THAT THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT BECAUSE WHEN DRIVING OVER 45MPH THE CAR PULLS TO ONE SIDE AND IT IS DIFFICULT TO KEEP IN A SINGLE LANE ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I DESCRIBED THE BRAKING ISSUES WITH THE CAR, THEY TOLD ME THAT "THE BRAKES ARE DIFFERENT THAN WHAT I HAVE BEEN USED TO WITH OTHER VEHICLES. THE BRAKES DON'T SEEM TO ENGAGE UNTIL THE PEDAL IS AT THE FLOOR BOARD. WHEN THEY WERE READY TO TURN THE CAR BACK OVER TO ME THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY DID AN ALIGNMENT ON THE CAR AND THAT THEY ADJUSTED THE REAR BRAKES AND BLED THE LINES. I NOTICED THAT WHEN THEY "TEST DROVE" THE CAR THEY ONLY WENT 3 MILES. THAT DISTANCE, IN THE PART OF TOWN WHERE THE DEALER IS LOCATED DOESN'T EVEN GET THE CAR UP TO 40 MPH. THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT OF THE CAR DRIFTING IS STILL THERE. NOW THE BRAKES HOP AND CHATTER WHEN YOU PRESS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL AT SPEEDS OF APPX 45 MPH, AND WHEN AT A COMPLETE STOP THE CAR TENDS TO CREEP FORWARD EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKES ARE FULLY ENGAGED. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE SOLELY ON THE TOYOTA REPUTATION, AND NOW I AM SORRY THAT I DID. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE ON NOVEMBER 2,2009 AND AM STILL WAITING TO HEAR ANYTHING FROM TOYOTA REGARDING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL RECALL/REPAIR. I SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH MY FIRST INSTINCT AND BOUGHT THE DODGE INSTEAD OF THE TOYOTA. *TR
