After an alignment my steering wheel is not straight. If held straight, the car goes off the road to the right. Took it back, now it goes off to the left. Sitting still the steering wheel will turn 360 degrees around and hangs in spots when turning it back.
Door latches get stuck closed. It seems the plastic around the latch is the cause.
I was hit by a speeding driver in cross traffic. (a lot of people a running through red lights!) the front bumper and grill area was badly damaged, right headlamp assembly was torn off and hood was buckled. My seat belt did not stop me from being thrown forward and the airbag did not deploy, causing my head to hit the windshield, breaking the glass. I received medical attention for my head injury. Two safety systems that failed. My car has been "totaled" by the insurance company.
My car has been unable to pass the emissions test. My mechanic has done everything under code p0401-egr insufficient flow and has spoken with Toyota but no one can figure out what the problem is. In speaking with others and reading many accounts of others having the same problem, we wonder why there hasn't been a recall. Driving illegally is terrible, but some of us who are poor, are forced to do so. Toyota is aware of the problem but does nothing to help us Toyota owners.
Paint is peeling and body metal is visible to the naked eye.
