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.

Visibility, windshield wiper/washer, switch/wiringOct 17, 2013
Toyota Motor Engineering & manufacturing North America, Inc. (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2013-2014 Camry and Camry HV, model year 2013 Avalon and Avalon HV and model year 2014 Corolla vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the windshield wiper switch assembly may short circuit. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard, No. 104, "Windshield Wiping and Washing Systems."
A short circuit could cause inoperative windshield wipers, reducing driver visibility and increasing the risk of a crash.
Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will replace the wiper switch assembly, free of charge. The recall began on November 8, 2013. Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

REAR END COLLISION HAZARD DUE TO DEFECTIVE, POORLY DESIGNED, AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT SYSTEMS. ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED TWICE DUE TO LACK OF TAIL LIGHTS, WHILE IN MOTION, DRIVING! TOYOTA CLAIMS THE 2014 COROLLA HAS AUTO HEADLIGHTS. WHILE THE SWITCH IS KEPT IN "DRL" DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT MODE THE CAR TRICKS YOU AT NIGHT INTO THINKING THE AUTO HEADLIGHT, SIDE MARKERS AND TAILLIGHTS ARE ON AFTER STARTING THE CAR, WHEN THEY ARE NOT ON. YOU START THE CAR AND THE HEADLIGHTS, AND DASH GAGE LIGHTS COME ON BUT NOTHING ELSE IS LIT. NO TAILIGHTS, NO SIDE LIGHTS. I AM TOLD BY THE DEALER CANADIAN VERSIONS OF THE COROLLA HAVE TRUE AUTO HEADLIGHTS AND MY CAR WOULD HAVE TO BE PROGRAMMED TO WORK AS AN AUTO SYSTEM, AFTER ADDING THE DASH SENSOR. I AM REQUESTING TOYOTA DO THIS TO CORRECT THIS SAFETY HAZARD TO AVOID A REAR END COLLISION ON THIS CAR. ALL OF MY CARS THE LAST 20 YRS HAD AUTO HEADLIGHTS AND WORKED FLAWLESSLY EXCEPT THIS TOYOTA COROLLA. I EVEN PUT A NOTE ON THE DASH TO REMIND ME TO MANUALLY TURN THE LIGHT SWITCH ON, BUT IT IS NOT SEEN IN THE DARK WHEN STARTING THE CAR. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO OTHER THAN APPEAL TO THE NHTSA FOR A COMPLETE REVIEW OF THIS MAJOR MANUFACTURER FLAW.

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. *TT *TR
Electrical system, Jun 24, 2018
I TURNED MY COROLLA WITH LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT, AND THE RADIO DOES NOT TURN ON OR WORK. IT SHOWS A PICTURE OF A MACHINE OF SOME SORT, AND LOOKS LIKE IT IS REBOOTING, BUT ONCE THE "LOADING BAR" GETS TO THE END, THE SCREEN TURNS BLACK AND STARTS THE REBOOT PROCESS OVER AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS CONTINUOUSLY WITHOUT EVER COMPLETEING A REBOOT. THE NAVIGATION, RADIO, BLUE TOOTH, CD PLAYER, OR ANYTHING THAT IS DONE THROUGH THE RADIO SCREEN IS NOT FUNCTIONAL.

TAKATA INFLATORS - THE VEHICLE HIT A CURB AND BLEW THE PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. THE SEAT BELT LIGHT AND AIR BAG LIGHT HAS BEEN FLASHING EVER SINCE ABOUT 65,000 MILES. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT STILL LOCKS. IF AN ACCIDENT OCCURS FROM THE REAR, SIDE OR FRONT, THE AIRBAG WOULD NOT DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELT MAY NOT LOCK. THE HORN LINE DISCONNECTED FROM THE HORN UNEXPECTEDLY. THIS HAPPENED ON 6/15/18 AT 88,585 MILES. THE AIR CONDITIONER HAS A LEAK FROM THE MAIN LINE THAT CONNECTS TO THE SQUARE BOX AT THE BACK OF THE CAR WALL. WHEN THE CAR IS SITTING STILL AT A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, HOT AIR STARTS BLOWING.

AC BLOWS HOT AIR WHILE IDLING AND TAKES 20 SECONDS TO START BLOWING AFTER IT IS TURNED ON. WHEN IT DOES COME ON IT BARELY BLOWS AIR ON ALL AIR SPEEDS. AT 29,000 MILES AND IN 120 DEGREE WEATHER THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. TOYOTA FORUMS AND CONSUMER REPORTS SHOWS AC PROBLEMS THAT TOYOTA KNOWS ABOUT, AND DOES NOT DO ANYTHING TO FIX THESE CARS THAT WERE SOLD WITH FAULTY PARTS. WHY DOES TOYOTA NOT HELP THOSE THAT ARE JUST PAST THE 36 MONTH WARRANTY BUT UNDER 36,000 MILES IN 3 YR OLD CAR? IT IS NOT LIKE I AM TRYING TO GET REPAIR FOR A 2004 COROLLA. PLEASE HELP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO OPEN THE VEHICLE DOOR WITH THE KEYLESS ENTRY REMOTE, BUT THE DOOR FAILED TO OPEN. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT HAD TO USE HIS KEY TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, WHILE INSIDE THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT TRIED TO OPEN THE DOOR USING THE DOOR HANDLE AND THE DOOR REFUSED TO OPEN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO DCH TOYOTA OF MILFORD (300 FORTUNE BLVD, MILFORD, MA 01757) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR ACTUATOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OFFERED TO PAY A PORTION OF THE REPAIR COST DUE TO THE WARRANTY BEING EXPIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000. *TT *TR

THIS IS SPORADIC, I WILL TRY TO START THE CAR AND IT DOESN'T WANT TO TURN OVER, AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, IT DOES. SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE NO POWER STEERING. WHEN DRIVING OVER SPEEDS OF SIXTY, THE CAR WANTS TO 'WANDER' TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. I HAVE READ THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE BEFORE 2010, TALK OF RECALL IN 2010 BECAUSE OF THE POWER STEERING FAILURE. THIS IS HAPPENED VERY OFTEN SO I CAN'T PICK A DAY, IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTH
Electrical system, Mar 5, 2018
THE FRONT DOORS NO LONGER LOCK BY PRESSING THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR DOES NOT LOCK AT ALL, EVEN IF THE LOCK IS PRESSED BY HAND. IT STARTED DOING IT EVERY FEW DAYS, BUT NOW THE DOORS HAVE STOPPED ALTOGETHER. WE WERE ABLE TO FIND OUT THAT THE ACTUATORS ARE FAULTY. THE CAR IS A 2014 AND THE PROBLEM IS SOMETHING WE HAD NO CONTROL OVER. THERE ARE REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE WITH 2014 COROLLAS AS WELL. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.
Electrical system, Mar 2, 2018
THE DISPLAY SCREEN FOR THE RADIO, NAVIGATION, MAINTENANCE REMINDERS, HANDS FREE PHONE USE, ETC. SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING WHEN STARTED MY CAR. THE SCREEN ONLY SHOWS AN ICON WITH A STATUS BAR THAT MAKES IT APPEAR THAT THE COMPUTER THAT OPERATES THIS SYSTEM IS TRYING TO RESTART. THE SCREEN ITSELF WORKS, BUT THE COMPUTER WON'T BOOT-UP. THIS IS DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING, AND PREVENTS THE USE OF ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES THAT RELY ON IT'S FUNCTION. I HAVE DONE EXTENSIVE READING ON THE INTERNET AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN 2014-2016 TOYOTA VEHICLES THAT HAVE THE PREMIUM ENTUNE SYSTEM WITH NAVIGATION. THEY ADMITTEDLY STATE THAT THE FUGITSU COMPONENT IS FAULTY AND THEY HAVE SINCE STARTED USING A PANASONIC UNIT TO AVOID FUTURE PROBLEMS. TOYOTA PRICES THE REPLACEMENT PART AT $3450. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE, WHEN THEY KNOW THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT THE FAULT OF THE CAR OWNER, BUT RATHER A FAULTY PART THAT WAS USED DURING THE MANUFACTURE OF THE VEHICLE. ACCORDING TO THE POST OF ONE TOYOTA TECHNICIAN, TOYOTA HAS REPLACED 1 MILLION OF THESE UNITS, BUT UNLESS THE VEHICLE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY THEY REFUSE TO COVER THE REPAIR COST BECAUSE TOYOTA DOES NOT THINK THIS MALFUNCTION IS A SAFETY ISSUE A RECALL OR WARRANTY EXTENSION HAS NOT BEEN ISSUED. I THINK IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THE HANDS-FREE FUNCTION DOES NOT WORK AND THE SCREEN IS VISUALLY DISTRACTING AS IT CONSTANTLY POWERS ON AND OFF. IT ALSO MEANS AN INOPERABLE NAVIGATION SYSTEM COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL AS NOT HAVING THE HANDS-FREE CALLING AND TEXTING. I HAVE TRIED TO RESET THE RADIO, DO A HARD RESET BY HOLDING THE POWER BUTTON AND REPLACING THE BATTERY. NOTHING WORKS. I CALLED TOYOTA AND GOT ROUTED AROUND AND HUNG UP ON. MECHANIC QUOTED ME MORE THAN $3500 FOR THE REPAIR. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE WHEN IT IS A KNOWN ENTUNE DEFECT AFFECTING MANY MODELS ACROSS MANY YEARS!
Air bags, Mar 2, 2018, crash
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT FROM NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR, WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT TO REAR END ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISES TO THE LEFT SHOULDER AND RIGHT SIDE OF THE BODY. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOWING FACILITY AND DEEMED DESTROYED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

AUDIO/NAVIGATIONAL UNIT IS NOT FUNCTIONAL, RENDERING ALL FEATURES (OTHER THAN ACTUAL MOBILITY) NON-FUNCTIONAL - I TRAVEL/LIVE IN A HANDS FREE CITY/STATE, AND SPECIFICALLY PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE FOR AUDIO/NAVIGATIONAL UNIT AND THE BLUE TOOTH TECHNOLOGY. ALSO, FLASHES LIGHT UNCONTROLLABLY WHILE IT CONSTANTLY REBOOTS (DISTRACTION - ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT AND DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER). CANNOT ACCESS DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION ON VEHICLE (TIRES, ENGINE, ETC.) AS PROMOTED/PROMISED FROM ENTUNE SOFTWARE. TOYOTA HAS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT WILL NOT REPLACE THE UNIT (T-SB 0172.16) AND STATES IT WAS DUE TO WARRANTY EXPIRATION, BUT NEVER NOTIFIED CUSTOMER (I.E. ME) ABOUT ISSUE EVEN WHEN I REACHED OUT TO TOYOTA TO RESOLVE. EVEN WHEN I NOTIFIED A LOCAL SERVICE/DEALERSHIP, THEY IGNORED MY SAFETY CONCERNS. ORIGINALLY TOYOTA SAID THEY WOULD HELP (SEPTEMBER), NOW (DECEMBER) THEY ARE STATING THEY WILL NOT.
