Other Fuel System Pump problems of the 2010 Toyota Corolla

I have been having a dangerous fuel pump issue for some time. I believe this to be the same issue that they have a fuel pump issue for 2018 & 2019 Toyotas! I believe Toyota has known about this for some time. My 2010 Toyota Corolla has been backfiring, stalling out, & shutting off when I get into heavy or standstill traffic, which is very dangerous. It stalled out & shut off in the middle of robbins street (3 lane 1 way street) near the tacony palmyra bridge due to a bridge opening that backed up traffic for over 45 minutes 1 day on my way home from work. When the bridge finally opened, I was almost hit several times. Luckily a mechanic came by & he was able to get it started again. I did take it to aaa service center in mt laurel NJ & they did diagnosed that it is a fuel pump issue that will cost $2,273. 40. Again I believe Toyota has known about this for some time similar to the brake recall that they had some time ago. This is a very dangerous issue. This issue still continues. . .

My 2010 Toyota kept stalling out, mostly when it was in idle mode. If I was driving a slower speed, it would sometimes lose power and when I pushed on the gas pedal, there was nothing there. . . Like air. It would stall out if I was sitting in traffic over minutes. I had to put it in neutral and keep my foot on the gas pedal to keep it idled up. Initially I was told it was the ignition coils, which I had replaced. Then the spark plugs were replaced. Then the air mass sensor. And my battery. Also the repair shop did some adjustment to the throttle. None off that repaired the vehicle; it was still stalling out just out of the blue. The last repair shop said they only saw one code in the computer and it was giving them a reading where the fuel pump had something like a "vapor lock" and was not sending out fuel like it was supposed to. This car has been stalling out on us since April 2019 and has had replacement parts that did not fix the problem. My fuel pump was finally replaced on February 21,2020 and so far it has not stalled out at all, even when it's in idle mode. Cost to repair it was $901. 67.

Our 2010 Toyota Corolla xle with 74,000 miles experienced complete engine failure due to a defective fuel pump. We own and operate this car at about 1,000 feet (omaha nebraska). My daughter drove this car north west towards the eisenhower edwin c. Johnson memorial tunnel in colorado and the engine completely shut down. Very little warning as the engine shuttered and came to a complete and unexpected stop in the middle of northbound traffic on highway 70. My daughter almost got hit by a couple of cars as she reattempted the climb towards the eisenhower edwin c. Johnson memorial tunnel. But to no avail. She took this car to stevenson auto in lakewood colorado for diagnosis, but they couldn't recreate the problem because they are allowed to drive only 20 miles or so and the car was towed 27 miles from highway 70 to their dealership (the closest Toyota dealer). They told my daughter to go back home to omaha nebraska because there aren't any fuel pump problems at low altitude. Btw, the Toyota TSB is entitled "extended crank at altitude".
