general problems of the 2015 Toyota Corolla

I purchased this vehicle in November 2024 from a dealership. On July 8, 2025, I was involved in a crash where the airbag failed to deploy. After the accident, I learned there was an active recall from 2020 (NHTSA recall no. 20v024) related to the airbag control system. The recall had not been repaired, and I was never informed of it when I bought the car. This defect may have worsened my injuries and left me completely unprotected during the crash.

The contact owned a 2015 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously involved in a front-impact collision, and the air bags had failed to deploy. The contact sustained injuries and received medical assistance from a chiropractor. A police report was filed, and the vehicle was driven from the scene. Additionally, the contact stated that while driving 35-40 mph approximately a year later, another vehicle making a left turn at an undisclosed speed crashed into the front driver's side of the vehicle, causing the left side of the contact's head and shoulders to hit the driver's side window, and the contact's chest to hit the steering wheel. The contact was knocked unconscious for a moment. Upon regaining consciousness, the contact noticed that the vehicle was on top of a hill. The contact's husband arrived at the scene and transported the contact to the hospital. A police report was filed. The contact sustained spinal injuries from the cervical spine to the lumbar spine. The contact sustained whiplash, body soreness, and swelling on the right side of the hairline and temple. The contact was in the process of undergoing an mri. The contact was currently receiving assistance from the chiropractor and the pain management doctor. The vehicle was towed to a tow yard, and was then towed to an auto collision repair shop, where it was deemed a total loss by both the shop and the insurance company. The dealer was contacted, and the contact was advised that she would receive a call back later. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,108.

I had my airbag repaired back in 2022 due to a safety recall and that light has since then turned on again.

I placed my laptop bag, which weighs less than 15 lbs. , on the passenger seat. Despite this, the seatbelt warning system continues to alert me about the seatbelt not being worn. The passenger seat should be able to detect when a human passenger is present. Unfortunately, I have to buckle the seatbelt to turn off the warning light and chime, even though there is no human passenger or item weighing more than 15 lbs.

The contact owns a 2015 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph and approaching a stop, the vehicle struck a deer, causing the front windshield to crack.

My daughter was driving my car on the interstate the airbags deployed and hit her in the face, filled the car up with smoke, she couldn’t see anything she hit the iron poles that are together by cables. My car is totaled. My back tire broke completely off of the car. These cars aren’t built safe. I owned my car and now I’m without a car. Has anyone else ever had this happen? air bags deploying for no reason?.

I tried to stop as car in front me had stepped on brakes. I didn't stop and slid into back of another vehicle. Air bags did not deploy.

My daughter was hit from rear and the air bags didn't deploy the car was a total loss.

Was side swiped by a semi truck which forced my car to spin around on the freeway. Then hit by multiple other vehicles and blacked out. Damage to every side of my vehicle and airbags should have deployed but they failed to do so. I received a recall notice for my vehicle last year and brought it into the dealership and had the airbags fixed. However, they still failed to deploy.

It's a incomplete safety repair recall for an airbag deploy, this is my first car so it was advised for me to contact the maker of the car for the recall that is incomplete on the car.

Multiple issues with the dealership over a timeframe of a few years that continues to deteriorate. Most recently, lack of dealership notification of safety recall, dealership inability to respond to safety recall when notified from a 3rd party site, dealership vehicular inspection incomplete and/or indications of unresolved issues, violation of personal property but dealership emptying center console contents into passenger seat unnecessarily (no business reason to do so), inspection results of most recent visit entailed video inspection of rust accumulation near notated brake area with no direction or instruction - beyond the driver noticing a driving problem of vibration - to which the instruction was a dealership process of rust build up removal by a machine (no internal communication within dealership of issue, notification to driver or those serving the driver to share issue and recommendations, prompting was the result of driver requesting clarification at dealership). The safety recall for this vehicle came through carfax (not from the dealership or dealership means - but as a result of attempting to sell the vehicle). The safety recall involved an issue with the seat belt & air bag deployment, and when driver contacted local dealership months ago- dealership stated that there was no remedy, and was not notified when one became available. The most recent oil change visit "claims" to have addressed the problem, at the request of driver. This incident request is three-fold: (1) address safety recall communication and process with dealership; (2) address vehicular maintenance, oil change, service, and inspection process and interaction with drivers; and (3) recommend to me (the person completing this complaint) a specific motor vehicle location (including company name, management, and mechanic) where the vehicle can be adequately assessed for safe driving.

1994 Toyota Corolla. Consumer writes in regards to non deployment of airbag during auto accident and seeking reimbursement for costs.

I was in an accident about a year-and-a-half ago collision at about 25 to 35 miles an hour and airbags did not open. It was a solid front end collision and the seat belts worked but not the air bags nor anti-lock brakes. Clear and dry weather and roads but anti-lock brakes did not kick in. Driving on a city street going straight not turning.

I was involved in a severe roll over accident late at night. I rolled 4 times and slid 300 feet upside down. Luckily im alive thanks to my seat belt and the reinforced frame. However, I have a sever concussion because my front air bags never went off. The side ones did but never the front. This caused me to have very bad bruising on my head and a concussion.

I receive one letter for recall red Corolla Toyota 2015 airbags problems.

I have received several notices of an airbag recall in my vehicle. The notices instruct me to take the car to a dealership for repair immediately. If I'm unable to take to a dealership, I'm to have someone else perform the repair and then Toyota will reimburse me. The dealership in costa rica, where my car is located, will not perform the repair. I have contacted Toyota and am unable to find out exactly what needs to be done or how to get reimbursed once the repair is complete. The last communication I had with Toyota, a representative told me he was waiting to hear back from japan and that he would only email me if he heard and they gave him relevant information. Surely someone at the Toyota company must know the repair needed. In the meantime, I keep receiving notices from Toyota about how unsafe my car is and to get it fixed immediately. I'm trying!!!.

My daughter was on a 2 lane stretch of I-15 highway southbound, approx 7 miles north of lasvegas nv. She was in the left lane slowly creeping by a 18 wheel rig w/trailer. She was doing 74 with cruise control and witnesses say the rig must have been doing 73mph. He violently turned into her lane causing her to do evasive maneuver left and brake hard skidding into the soft shoulder then spinning clockwise crossing to the right side hitting a small shoulder elevation change with both drivers side wheels, causing a double roll over and a cartwheel landing on the trunk, then coming to a rest on the roof. Not a single air bag deployed! she suffered multiple blunt hits to the head from hitting against the door, she has a concussion with sprained shoulder and ankles. Granted she should be in much worse condition but we are grateful she had her blankets and her dogs beds that flew from the back seat to the front helping to keep her padded from even more trauma. I feel that a side curtain and steering bag should have deployed. Is this a fluke that Toyota engineers missed? because no particular corner was impacted? the rollover impacts were at the wheels, just above both bumpers and the entire roof area.

Takata recall accident with deer April 2017 car was totaled. No airbags deployed.

I purchased a used 2015 Toyota Corolla with about 27,085miles, in June 2016. Three months later, the steering wheel locked while driving down the street. I could not turn the wheel and the brakes would not work. By having no control of the car, it crashed into a parked vehicle. There was minor damage to the parked vehicle. The Corolla had major damage because all the air bags were deployed. This occured three blocks from home, on a city street. No speeding was involved and no citations were issued by the police.

It's a safety recall on the airbags they've haven't services yet.

This car was rear ended 17 months ago and none of the 8 airbags deployed. I got a herniated disc and a broken rib. The other driver insurance paid for the $12,000 repairs on my car and some of my medical expenses but now here I am with an injury for the rest of my life. This car should be included in the airbag lawsuit and I should be compensated for my injuries.

I had a 2006 Toyota Corolla which would not pass inspection due to takata airbag recall with no parts available for estimated 1 to 2 years. So I had to trade it on a new 2015 Toyota since no other manufacturer would take it and I could not sell it as is. Toyota would and will not tell me if 2015 Corolla has takata airbags so it must have them. Thus, this 2015 car should be on recall as well. I understand Toyota is no longer using takata as a source for airbags. They have a system on my new car which shuts off the passenger airbag if no one is in that seat but that is not a satisfactory solution. Takata airbags are life threatening and should be removed from car and replaced at Toyota's expense.
