general problems of the 2012 Toyota Corolla

Brakes on vehecle started getting very low on pedal and slow to stop . Mechanic worked on it replaced modulator and over $500. Later brakes still not working . Another mechanic (another ($500) still working on vehecle without luck as part that's responsible for the problem is attached to the computer and dealerships will sell whole computer at aproxima $4000. 00 . Had been looking for used part for past 6 months (unable to use we) and every shop stated that part is promptly removed from crashed vehicles as is a recurrent people looking for it. Also was notified that Toyota Corolla 2012 brake system was changed only for that year and again year after same system till now . . . At every repair shop I'm told: � that is an ongoing problem with that car�. . .

My car has 60k miles on it. I have two lights on my dash. I took my car in and was told it was the brake actuator. I seen several recalls on this but the Corolla is not listed???? I called Toyota customer solutions who told me that it would be for me to cover. I find this very frustrating that one a car that has 60k miles that this is an issue. Not to mention the price of the part I was given $3600!!!!.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that after the vehicle received brake service, the brake pedal was depressed and went to the floor board. The vehicle was not taken to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 105,070. Ah.

When I driving was okay, it's only 20-25 miles speeding, I was trying to stop at the signal light, the break doesn't work and I stopped the car with side break. It caused the accident.

While driving northbound on interstate I-75 home during rush hour in the metro-detroit area, the vehicle sped up in excess of 90mph! I almost caused a collision. The gas pedal did not react to my foot not even being on the pedal! I braked and pumped the brake to only control my speed. When I finally got the vehicle to park, the engine was still running at a high rate like the engine was reacting to pressure on the gas pedal. The car smelled like smoke from the brake pad. If it wasn't for the brake pad, I might of been more severely injured or worse. I plan to take the vehicle back to the dealership and see what they can do. But please, please, please help my family and I out. . . . . We have a 2014 Corolla VIN # 2t1burhe0ec000577 , another 2008 Corolla VIN # 1nxbr32e68z040401 , and just recently a 2014 Toyota rav4 VIN # jtmrfrev2ed087902 . . . . . . . . . . . . It was a very scary ordeal. . . . I'm very concerned for the well being of my family driving these vehicles. I thought the issue was fix already????? maybe not.

As I was approaching a stop light, I began applying my brakes & slowing down. As I got closer to the vehicle in front of me I applied full pressure. My vehicle surged forward & I had the brake pedal completely to the floor. I could not swerve due to oncoming traffic. This resulted in me rear-ending the vehicle in front of me. I had only purchased the car a week before! I took the car into the dealership & explained what had happened. They checked out the braking system & said that it was working properly & they could find nothing wrong with it. This did not surprise me after reading the other complaints. As a result, I had to file with my insurance company which raised my rates. I am not happy about this! I have to drive 40 miles, one way, to work, and I am constantly fearing that it will happen again & that the results will be much worse. What recourse do I have?.
