Air bags, air bag/restraint control moduleJan 17, 2020
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2011-2019 Corolla, 2011-2013 Matrix, 2012-2018 Avalon, and 2013-2018 Avalon Hybrid vehicles. During certain crashes, the air bag electronic control unit (ECU) may malfunction, possibly disabling the deployment of the air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners.
In the event of a crash, air bags and/or seat belt pretensioners that do not deploy as intended may increase the risk of injury.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the ECU and install a noise filter between the air bag control module and its wire harness, as necessary, free of charge. Owners were notified of the safety risk beginning March 2, 2020. A second letter notifying owners of the remedy repair will be mailed between March 16, 2020 and June 27, 2020. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-888-270-9371. Toyota's numbers for this recall are 20TB03, 20TA03 and 20TA05.

This could increase the risk of personal injury during the event of a vehicle crash necessitating airbag deployment.
Southeast Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will test the sensitivity of the occupant detection sensors, and recalibrate them as necessary. The recall began on March 21, 2013. Owners may contact Southeast Toyota at 1-800-301-6859.

Vehicle speed control, Jul 17, 2011
I PURCHASED A NEW 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA, AND IMMEDIATELY NOTICED AN ISSUE WITH VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL. THE VEHICLE MAINTAINS SPEED/RPM EVEN AFTER REMOVING YOUR FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR. THE ISSUE IS MOST VISIBLE WHEN THE CAR IS TRAVELLING IN EXCESS OF 40 MPH AND THE TRANSMISSION IS IN THE HIGHEST GEAR. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THIS IS EXPECTED BEHAVIOR. IN MY VIEW IT IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE SINCE THE CAR DOES NOW SLOW DOWN. THIS ISSUE IS NOT SPORADIC, BUT RATHER PERSISTENT... IT ALWAYS BEHAVES THIS WAY. *TR
Power train, Jul 16, 2011
IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE WE NOTICED A TRANSMITTION PROBLEM WHERE THERE WAS A FLUXUATION OF RPM WHILE DRIVING AT 40 - 65 MPH. THE COMPUTER IS TELLING THE TRANSMITTION TO SHIFT FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON. IT CAN NOT FIND A CRUSE GEAR TO REMAIN AT SPEED. *TT

2011 TOYOTA COROLLA MAINTAINS THE SPEED/RPM WHEN THE FOOT IS OFF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. IT HAPPENS AT ALL SPEED, BUT IT MOSTLY VISIBLE AT 60MPH AND ABOVE. THE CAR WILL MAINTAIN THE SPEED, AS IF THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ENGAGED! WHEN GOING DOWNHILL, EVEN BRAKING IS NOT ENOUGH AND I HAD TO RESULT TO PLACING AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION INTO NEUTRAL, IN ORDER TO DROP THE SPEED. LAWRENCE TOYOTA (NJ) TECHNICIAN/MECHANIC TEST DROVE MY CAR AND CONFIRMED THAT VEHICLE WAS NOT OPERATING NORMALLY. YET, AFTER THEY (DEALERSHIP) CONTACTED TOYOTA SUPPORT IN CALIFORNIA, I WAS TOLD THAT VEHICLE OPERATES NORMALLY?! TOYOTA REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND FIX/RECALL 2011 COROLLA'S. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. SOMEONE WILL CRASH THEIR CAR AND POSSIBLY DIE BECAUSE THE CAR WON'T DECELERATE, WHEN FOOT IS OF THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. HERE IS A LINK TO A FORUM WHERE OWNERS OF 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA DESCRIBE EXACTLY THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE WITH THE CAR. HTTP://WWW.COROLLAFORUM.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?P=285#POST285 *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 25 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE SPEED INCREASED AND DECREASED INDEPENDENTLY. WHEN THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY DECREASE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WOULD BECOME HARDER TO DEPRESS. THE VEHICLE WAS TO THE DEALER WHO INSPECTED AND TESTED THE FAILURE BUT WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS SENT BY THE MANUFACTURER TO FURTHER INSPECT THE VEHICLE BUT THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS ALSO UNABLE TO DUPLICATE OR DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ONCE AGAIN AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD SEND A SECOND REPRESENTATIVE TO THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR UP TO 65 MPH.

AROUND 250-300 MILES I WENT OVER A DIP IN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 40 MPH AND WENT TO HIT THE BRAKES WHILE TAKING A TURN THAT WAS APPROACHING A STOPLIGHT WHEN THE BRAKES WOULD NOT LET ME PUSH THEM DOWN AND WOULD GIVE ME FEEDBACK AS IF ABS WAS ACTIVE. AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS I WAS ABLE TO REAPPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES TO STOP. THIS HAPPENED A TOTAL OF EIGHT TIMES IN 2,100 MILES. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN SOME CLOSE CALLS, AND ALL THE INCIDENTS HAPPENED AFTER HITTING A DIP WHILE TRYING TO REDUCE MY SPEED FROM OVER 50 MPH TO THE TIME OF HITTING THE DIPS. IT FEELS LIKE ABS IS ACTIVATING, AND IN TURN NOT ALLOWING ME TO APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES. ANOTHER INCIDENT HAPPENED AS I WAS GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY APPROACHING TRAFFIC AND I WENT OVER A DIP ON THE FREEWAY AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO STOP FOR ABOUT A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I REGAINED BRAKES WITH ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE A STOP, BUT I WOULD SAY IT WAS A SAFE STOP. I HAD ANOTHER INCIDENT WHERE THE BRAKES FAILED AS I WAS EXITING A FREEWAY AND I WOULD NOT APPLY MY BRAKES FOR THE FIRST TURN, AND I COULD ONLY APPLY PRESSURE TO THE BRAKES AFTER I STARTED TO ENTER THE SECOND TURN COMING WITHIN INCHES OF COLLIDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THESE NEAR ACCIDENTS WERE ENOUGH FOR ME TO REPORT IT TO TOYOTA. AFTER BRINGING IT TO TOYOTA, THEY TESTED THE CAR FOR 15 MILES AND TOLD ME IT WAS FUNCTIONING AS IT WAS ENGINEERED TO. I AM POSITIVE THAT THIS CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. I BOUGHT IT ON 5/23/11 WITH 10 MILES ON IT, AND DROVE IT A TOTAL OF 2,150 MILES. *TR

MY 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA STARTED TO WANDER AND DRIFT ON THE ROAD AFTER REACHING SPEEDS OF AROUND 50 TO 60 MPH. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG BUT SAID THEY CONTACTED TOYOTA AND WERE TOLD TO ALIGN THE FRONT END. AFTER THE ALIGNMENT, OR WHATEVER THEY REALLY DID, IT WAS BETTER BUT STILL AT 50 TO 60 MPH IF YOU MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL, THE CAR DRIFTS AND WANDERS LIKE THE REAR END IS ON ICE. VERY SCARRY. NOT MUCH BETTER. **TT

INTERMITTENT DECELERATION ISSUE: WHILE DRIVING AND I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS TO SLOW DOWN, THE CAR MAINTAINS THE SPEED AND DOES NOT DECELERATE UNTIL I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO PUMP BRAKE TO BRING SPEED DOWN. FOR LACK OF BETTER DESCRIPTION, IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS ON CRUISE CONTROL. I HAVE BEEN BACK TO THE TOYOTA DEALER THREE TIMES AND AFTER TEST DRIVING AND RUNNING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, WAS TOLD THIS IS 'NORMAL'?

AT ABOUT 55MPH-60MPH, THE CAR BECOMES DIFFICULT TO STEER. THE CAR BECOMES VERY UNSTABLE AND WILL NOT HOLD THE ROAD WELL. THE CAR JERKS QUICKLY BACK AND FORTH ACROSS THE LANE, FEELING ALMOST AS IF ONE WERE DRIVING IN HIGH WINDS; HOWEVER, THIS STEERING ISSUE WILL OCCUR AT EVERY HIGH SPEED AND EVEN WITHOUT WIND PRESENT. THE STEERING IS TOO SENSITIVE AND WILL EASILY MOVE INTO ANY OTHER LANE DESPITE HOLDING THE WHEEL STILL. THIS CAR FEELS LIKE THE STEERING HAS A MIND OF ITS OWN, WHICH IS ESPECIALLY FRIGHTENING WHILE DRIVING PAST OTHER CARS ON FREEWAYS DUE TO DIMINISHED DRIVER CONTROL. AT LOWER SPEEDS, STEERING IS FINE, BUT BECOMES DANGEROUS AT HIGHER SPEEDS. VERY SCARY TO DRIVE.

IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING DOWNHILL WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE VEHICLE WOULD DECELERATE ABNORMALLY, CAUSING A SLIGHT JERK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.
