Trunk lost its ability to remain open and unexpectedly came closed and hit me in the head the first time, the forehead the second time. Very dangerous.
We have a 2007 Toyota Yaris the rear wheel hub bearings are failing and the parts are only available at the dealer at a very expensive price. Appp\arently this is a very common problem and I feel that it may warrant a recall. It is impossible to find the part and distributors told me that the demand has exceeded availability for months. I would like to know if this is being checked into. Thank you.
As the vehicle was driven into a parking space it began to accelerate, did not stop when brakes were pumped, and struck a building. The air bags did not deploy.
This should be a safety recall. Underneath the 2007 Yaris there is bolts holding the control arm to the suspension. Simply put the bolt has rusted out after only three years. This is not normal. It appears that when water splashes up under the car and gets caught there is no way for the water to drain. It just sits on the bolt. If/when this rusts out the control arm could separate from he suspension and cause the automobile to lose control. It is an obvious design flaw. I urge you and Toyota to look into this and issue a recall immediately, as there is many other autos on the road with this same issue. It is a simple fix if caught up front. Unfortunately for folks like me, who already had this happen to. It will cost hundreds. Fortunately, nothing has happened to me me yet. But I cannot get someone to fix it until next week and I have to get to work. So I will cross my fingers that it doesn't get worse.
The trunk of the vehicle does not stay open on its own , there are no springs or any device to keep it open especially if the car is on a incline. Myself ,my parents and boyfriend have been hit in the back of the head by the trunk lid. Very painful. Did question the dealership about it and was told that was how the car was made.
Our local Toyota service dealer does not perform safety recall repairs on the weekend, or on weekdays after 4pm. So car will remain in same condition until a dealer is found that can repair safety recall on weekend. . . If possible. The rodland Toyota service representative was actually very rude to me on the phone. Not sure what to do from here. Thanks in advance for any understanding.
