Steering, Sep 2, 2010
I'VE OWNED MY 2001 SOLARA SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN APRIL 2001. I HAVEN'T HAD ANY REAL PROBLEMS WITH IT (I'VE HAD ALL OF THE NORMAL MAINTENANCE, WEAR & TEAR STUFF DONE), UNTIL ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO. MY WIFE & I WERE OUT OF TOWN AND WERE TURNING AROUND AT A STRIP MALL SHOPPING CENTER WHEN THE STEERING LOCKED UP. IT HAD JUST RAINED EXTREMELY HEAVILY AND THERE WAS A LOT OF SURFACE WATER ON THE ROAD. I JUST ASSUMED THAT PERHAPS THE POWER STEERING DRIVE BELT GOT WET AND WAS SLIPPING (ALTHOUGH I DIDN'T HEAR ANY SQUEALING). AFTER THAT THE STEERING SEEMED OK. THEN ABOUT A YEAR AGO, I STARTED NOTICING THE PROBLEM MORE REGULARLY, MOSTLY WHILE "UN-PARKING" THE CAR FROM A PARALLEL PARKING SPOT. I CAN BACK UP OK, BUT WHEN I STEER THE CAR TO BEGIN DRIVING, THE STEERING LOCKS UP & I HAVE TO STOP, BACK UP AGAIN, & "STEER OUT OF IT." ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS KIND OF STEERING PROBLEM? I HAVE 125,000 MILES ON THE CAR. I KNOW THAT TOYOTA HAS DONE A RECENT RECALL ON CRACKED STEERING BOXES ON CERTAIN MODELS. I HAD A '76 CELICA ONE TIME THAT DEVELOPED A CRACK IN THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION CASTING AT ABOUT 80 OR 90,000 MILES. *TR

Engine and engine cooling, Vehicle speed control, May 18, 2010
MY 2001 TOYOTA CAMRY STARTED DEVELOPING A PROBLEM MORE THAN TWO YEARS AGO, WHERE IT WOULD START RUNNING ROUGH AND THEN STALL--OR SOMETIMES STALL WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT. IF THE CAR STALLS OR COMES CLOSE TO STALLING THEN THE ENGINE LIGHT GOES ON, AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS ONLY BEEN ABLE TO RESET THE ENGINE LIGHT. RECENTLY THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE CHARCOAL CANISTER WHEN THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, BUT THAT HAS NOT HELPED THE RUNNING ROUGH/STALLING PROBLEM. THE CAR SEEMS TO RUN ROUGH OR STALL IF IT HAS GONE ABOVE 4000 RPMS ,AND WE CAN MODERATE THE INSTANCES OF A PROBLEM BY AVOIDING SUDDEN ACCELERATION. MY FEAR IS THAT THE CAR WILL STALL IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR
Vehicle speed control, May 18, 2010, crash
THIS VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FATAL CRASH IN WHICH A PASSENGER WAS KILLED. BASED UPON A CRASH RECONSTRUCTION ANALYSIS, THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING IN EXCESS OF 100 MPH WHEN THE DRIVER LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL AND STRUCK THE BACK OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH NO CURRENT RECALLS EXIST FOR THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL ISSUES, WE ARE INTERESTED IN HAVING IT INVESTIGATED IN LIGHT OF THE RECENT TOYOTA RECALLS WITH OTHER MODEL YEARS. THE UNUSUALLY HIGH SPEED OF THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT APPEAR CONSISTENT WITH THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THE CRASH. THE VEHICLE IS AVAILABLE FOR EXAMINATION IF NEEDED. *TR UPDATED 9/29/11*CW

ON 4/1/08, IN THE MORNING, ON WET ROADS, I WAS DRIVING MY '01 TOYOTA SOLARA AND NEEDED TO STOP SHORT IN TRAFFIC. I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKES, THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES NEVER KICKED IN, NOR DID THE CAR SLOW DOWN. I HAD REAR ENDED A TOYOTA SEQUOIA. I HAD MENTIONED TO THE OTHER DRIVER THAT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. I HAD ALSO TOLD THE POLICE OFFICER THE SAME. MY TOYOTA SOLARA WAS TOTALED. CONVINCED THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES, I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO A MECHANIC TO HAVE THE BRAKES CHECKED OUT, AND NOTHING WAS WRONG. ONLY AFTER HEARING THE RECENT WOES OF OTHER TOYOTAS' WITH THE STICKING ACCELERATOR, DID IT FINALLY CLICK AND MAKE SENSE. THIS IS WHY THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE AND WHY THE CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE REASON I AM REPORTING THIS NOW IS BECAUSE I BELIEVE TOYOTA VEHICLES HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR LONGER THAN THE RECALLS LISTS SUGGEST, AND I BELIEVE MORE INVESTIGATIONS SHOULD BE DONE ON THE HIGHER MILEAGE VEHICLES. *TR

ON NOVEMBER 4, 2008 AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK MY CAR AT THE WILLIAMSBURG, VA POST OFFICE AND WAS ABOUT 2/3 OF THE WAY INTO THE PARKING SPOT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE ENGINE ROARED, THE CAR ACCELERATED, JUMPED THE CURB AND HIT THE SIDE OF THE BRICK BUILDING. FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO PEDESTRIANS IN MY PATH. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO CASEY TOYOTA IN WILLIAMSBURG WHERE THEY INSPECTED THE BRAKES AND FOUND THAT THEY WERE WORKING PROPERLY. WE THEN REQUESTED THAT TOYOTA SEND A REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT THE CAR TO DETERMINE WHAT MIGHT HAVE CAUSED THIS ACCIDENT. THE INSPECTOR'S REPORT STATES THAT HE FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. (THIS OF COURSE ALL TOOK PLACE PRIOR TO THE RECENT RECALLS). WE INCURRED EXPENSES TOTALING OVER $600. BECAUSE OF THIS ACCIDENT. SINCE WE FELT THIS CAR WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE, WE DECIDED TO TRADE IT IN AND HAD TO ACCEPT A REDUCED TRADE-IN BECAUSE IT WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AND ALSO INCURRED GREAT EXPENSE IN PURCHASING A NEW CAR. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT THIS WAS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AS THE RECENT RECALLS HAVE SHOWN. *TR

Vehicle speed control, Mar 1, 2010, crash
THE FAILURE IS THE GAS PEDAL GETS STUCK. IT STICKS WHEN I AM AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND IT'S MY TURN TO GO AND HAS BEEN STICKING EVERY SINCE I HAD THE CAR. I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS JUST THE CAR NOT GETTING ENOUGH GAS. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT IT BECAUSE I WAS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I AM AFRAID THAT I AM GOING TO HIT SOMEONE BECAUSE I DO HAVE TO REALLY MASH THE GAS TO GET IT TO MOVE. THE ONLY INCIDENT WAS IN 2005 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING. SHE STOPPED TO GET GAS. WHEN SHE FINISHED AND GOT IN THE CAR TO LEAVE SHE PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND THE ACCELERATOR STUCK WHEN SHE GAVE IT GAS SHE BAKED INTO A POLE. THE ONLY DAMAGE WAS TO MY CAR SHE WAS NOT HURT SO THE POLICE WASN'T CALLED. *TR
