One problem related to electrical jack has been reported for the 2009 Toyota Corolla. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2009 Toyota Corolla based on all problems reported for the 2009 Corolla.
The manufacturer's supplied car tire jack does not safely engage its center notch to the ( "pinch welded" metal sheets edge ) designated jack point positions ( for the four wheel locations) as indicated in the owners manual. Only " one side", the inner half of the jack, makes contact with the vehicle, thus making lifting the car very unstable and unsafe. In other words, the notch of the supplied tire jack does not even make contact with the jack point. I am afraid this could cause the car to fall off the jack while it is being lifted to change a flat tire with the spare tire. ( I have tried to lift my car with the jack at all four corners, and the supplied jack's center notch did not even contact the jack point, but instead left indentations of the inner half of the jack's "saddle" on my car's underbody. In addition, I have read complaints (online) of 2009 Toyota Corolla owners whose car actually fell of the jack when it was being used to lift/support the vehicle. I assume this is a potential danger to subsequent owners of later Corolla model years of the same design platform (2009 to 2013) if Toyota has not already supplied new vehicles with an appropriately-designed tire jack or otherwise made it safer to lift the car with the jack. Note that I lifted my vehicle on a flat, hard concrete garage floor. In addition, I believe I've filed a complaint with Toyota several years ago; I called their customer service number, and they documented my concerns. Toyota has not responded to me since. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
