| 2010 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | I HAVE A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA WITH 1,900 MILES ON IT, I PURCHASED THE VEH IN THE MIDDLE OF NOVEMBER. AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE I BEGAN TO NOTICE THAT MY RIGHT ARM WOULD COLLECT STATIC ELECTRICITY WHEN I WOULD PLACE IT ON TOP OF THE CENTER ARM REST/CONSOLE. AT FIRST I WOULD ONLY GET THE STATIC SPARK WHEN I TOUCHED THE METAL FRAME OF MY DOOR, THEN WHEN I ENTERED THE VEHICLE I WOULD ONCE AGAIN COLLECT THE STATIC ELECTRICITY ON MY RIGHT ARM FROM THE CENTER ARM REST/CONSOLE. I BEGAN TO JUST NOT PAY ATTENTION TO THE STATIC BUILD UP I WOULD GET UNTIL YESTERDAY DECEMBER 29, 2010. I EXCITED MY VEHICLE AND PROCEEDED TO OPEN MY GAS COMPARTMENT DOOR, AS I TOUCHED THE COMPARTMENT DOOR, I RECEIVED THE STATIC SPARK. NOW I AM BECOMING CONCERN BECAUSE IT HAPPEN WHEN I TOUCHED THE COMPARTMENT DOOR HAD IT HAPPENED A FEW SECONDS LATER I COULD HAVE BEEN PUMPING GAS. I DROVE TO THE TOYOTA DEALER NEAR MY HOME AND WAS ASKED TO SIT IN ANOTHER 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA AND I ALSO BUILD UP STATIC ELECTRICITY, THEN THEY HAD ME SIT IN A 2010 TOYOTA CAMRY AND NOTHING HAPPENED. CLEARLY THE TYPE OF MATERIAL USED ON THE CENTER ARM REST/CONSOLE IS CAUSING THIS STATIC BUILD UP ON MY ARM. THE MATERIAL USED IN THE CAMRY IS NOT CAUSING THIS. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW OF ANY STATIC COMPLAINTS. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOMEONE INVESTIGATE THIS, IT ISN'T SAFE TO GO PUMP GAS WHILE HAVING STATIC ELECTRICITY. I CAN SHOW ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SEE IT HOW THE HAIRS ON MY ARM STAND UP ONCE I TOUCH THE CENTER ARM REST/CONSOLE. *TR |
| 1983 | TIRES | FROM THE TIME THESE FIRESTONE (DAYTON) WIDETRACK METRIC TIRES WERE PURCHASED NEW, THESE TIRES WOULD SLIDE UNEXPECTEDLY AT ALL SPEEDS ON WET ROADS AND AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES. THE TIRES DID NOT HYDROPLANE AND THE ROAD SURFACE ONLY NEEDED TO BE WET FOR THIS UNPREDICTABLE CONDITION. AIR PRESSURE DID NOT HAVE AN EFFECT ON WET TRACTION. TIRE WEAR AND DRY TRACTION WERE NORMAL. THESE FIRESTONE TIRES WERE REPLACED WHILE THEY STILL HAD GOOD TREAD WITH MICHELIN TIRES AND THE WET TRACTION PROBLEM WAS COMPLETELY CORRECTED. THE TIRE DEALER, COMMERCIAL TIRE IN ELKRIDGE, MD, WAS CONTACTED WHEN THE TIRES WERE NEW WITH THIS PROBLEM AND DID NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE OR OFFER ANY CORRECTION, THEY ONLY INDICATED THAT THESE WERE THE BETTER OF THE TWO TIRES THEY HAD FOR THIS VEHICLE APPLICATION.*AK (DOT NUMBER: HYE9 437 TIRESIZE: 165R13 82T) |
