general problems of the 2015 Toyota Corolla

On [xxx] at [xxx]. In cupey, puerto rico I was moving from west to east in the[xxx] parish underground parking. While parking my car in reverse, I needed to drive forward to accommodate the car in the parking space. As I shifted to drive, the vehicle accelerated on its own, the breaks were not working and hit a concrete wall. All the airbags exploded, and I was stuck inside the car. The car doors did not open from inside. The acceleration and break systems failed to work at the moment of the car crash. My safety was affected by the car crash impact. I was pressed against the seat by the airbags and the doors were not opening from the inside. I have panic attacks after this incident. The problem has not been confirmed by a car dealer nor independent service center. The vehicle has been inspected by an insurance representative. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior the the failure. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I am not sure exactly what happened but their was indeed an internal systems failure of some sort that definitely needs to be resolved and the public needs to be made aware of. I lost control of my vehicle do to some circumstance beyond my control and I was nearly killed an a father and son as well. I hope the government gets to the bottom of this and makes all humans aware of this threat to our way of life and human's lifes in general. Regardless I was driving and minding my own business and causing no harm to anyone when I lost control of my vehicle and it swerved to the right in an intersection causing an accident. Please utilize our tax money properly and make sure the people responsible for this are held accountable in accordance with the law and make the public aware of who they are. I thank you for your assistance in making sure humans and businesses are held accountable under the law of the laws of the country in relations to vehicle safety.

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.

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.

Vehicle was driving at approximately 30 miles an hour came to a red light, depressed brakes had virtually no response from brake pedal. Brakes are fairly new a mechanically sound but did not respond to a hard emergency stop attempt and resulted in an accident with minor bumps and bruises type injuries. The accident occurred at a controlled intersection as the light was turning red but resulted in the vehicle going entirely through the intersection and striking a crossing vehicle. Crossing vehicle was virtually undamaged as it was a heavy duty flatbed tow truck but the Corolla involved is potentially totaled or near total front end damage.

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.

Tl the contact owns a 2015 Toyota Corolla. When the vehicle was started, it suddenly accelerated on its own. After switching the transmission from park into reverse, the vehicle suddenly accelerated backwards and crashed into a cement block. The driver then shifted into drive and the vehicle accelerated forward, nearly crashing into a second vehicle. During the incident, the brake pedal was being depressed, but the vehicle would not stop. The manufacturer and local dealer (dunning Toyota, 3745 jackson rd, ann arbor, michigan) were notified of the failures. The failure mileage was 39,000.

Vehicle accelerates independently when the brake pedal is depressed. It has happened several times now. So far no accidents but I am concerned about this issue. Also the brake system is not functioning properly, hear creeking noise while depressing the brakes pedal (car in motion) and noise is getting worse.

While parking in a carport, I will use the brake to slowly enter and park. As I was straightening out the car, the car excellerated and hit a pole, bouncing back and forth. It caused major damage. I am wondering if there was something wrong with the car or my wearing flip-flops may have caused this accident. (note: this was a loaner car from Toyota while I waited 5 months to get my 2009 Corolla xle airbag replacement. The replacement part showed up the very next day after my accident).

My daughter was attempting to park in her college parking lot at fgcu. She said , thinks the brake didn't work when she applied it. Car hit concrete wall to stop. Aaa tow truck driver came and said brakes went to floor and he had to use e-brake to put on truck. He states when he got back to garage brakes worked. I told Toyota. They checked brakes out and said everything was working fine. I asked them to look at black box. They sent me results. I had my insurance CO. Look at them along with Toyota service adviser. Both said data shows gas applied before brake. I looked under car complaints. Other people had same problem. Some had automatic acceleration. I did not tell them to check that out because of statement from tow truck guy. She said it happened so fast she doesn't remember. The tin whiskering was a problem for Toyota in the past. I believe that they have not fixed the problem. Can the data show if gas applied by driver or automatically came on? I have spoken to attorneys and no one seems to want to take this case. My daughter has back pain and other issues. As a parent I'm not sure what to do. Car has been repaired. It is a lease. ( nine months left to pay. ) I would like to get her out of this car and get a new one. Any suggestions? thank you mike.

Stopped at a red light with foot on the brakes. Out of nowhere the car accelerated forward extremely fast. Forced to hit an car in front of me within a car or two, distance wise. After the incident the rpm gauge fluctuates from low to high. In addition, once gas pedal is pressed car slows down and eco activates, then after about 5 seconds car accelerator extremely fast.

I bought a brand new 2015 Corolla s on March 2015, a month later I started to hear creeking noise while depressing the brakes pedal, went to the dealer they tested the car and said "yes we heard the sound but your brake is totally perfect and is safe to drive". I continued to drive the car but the same sound like crackling still there when I brake. I went again to them, they kept the car for two or three days and they said "we changed the front brake shims". And most importantly they said, your car now is totally safe. After that I started to feel that the brakes do not stop the car as fast as it was before nor as you would expect from a new car plus a new creeking sound that I couldn't detect from front or rear wheels, at that time it was my first scheduled maintenance visit so I told them about it, then they said "we tested the car and the brakes work well", I said "I know it works but not perfectly & not as fast as before", they said "don't worry it's safe". A year later "January 2016", I had a small freeway accident where I hit the car in front of me due to a quick stop and I hit my brakes as fast as possible but still hit the car and the insurance said I'm at fault. A year and half later "July 2017" my wife had a big big freeway accident also due to a quick stop from the car in front, we had a massive damage to our car and of course the insurance said we are at fault. Two month later "September 2017" same thing happened a quick stop on freeway and at this time I felt like there is something weird going on, I had enough time and distance between me and the car in front but still I crashed him. Every time I was saying I cannot prove that there is a defect within the car itself, but I still have the same feeling of the slow responding brakes and the feel that the car runs under my feet uncontrollably when I hit my brakes even as fast and powerful as possible.

On December 24th 2014 I was driving my vehicle (2014 Toyota Corolla s) in (d) and was trying to slow down, because the driver in front of me braked. When I depressed my brake pedal the vehicle accelerated. I shifted into neutral and continued to brake and it eventually slowed me down. I shifted back into (d) and continued on my way, although shaken up. The road conditions were good, there was no rain or ice on the road that day. I checked my floor mats to see if they were sticking to the acceleration pedal when I got into the driveway, but I did not notice any such defect with the floor mats sticking to the pedal. A few weeks later driving to work on 01/20/2015 around the same speed on the same road conditions the vehicle gave me unwanted acceleration again while attempting to brake. I performed the same way I had previously, I entered into neutral and braked, except this time I came within inches of the vehicle forward of me. The next day on 01/21/2015 while driving to work the vehicle again performed the exact same malfunction as the previous day. On all days the road conditions were fine and should have not affected the vehicles performance. I decided to bring the vehicle to the dealership where I had leased the vehicle. I set up an appointment and had left it there 01/24/2015-01/26/2015. I received the vehicle back on 01/26/2015 and the master mechanic found no defects. I filed a complaint with the dealership and was told the service manager would contact me. After he had not for a few days, I decided to call him. I had gotten his voicemail and left a message. To date I have still not received a call back from the service manager. I have decided to take precautions and begin a vehicle safety complaint. I would like this matter resolved before myself or anyone else becomes injured or worse.
