I took my 2010 toyota corolla s in for service on 9/26/14 at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 for a regular service. all service has been completed at victory toyota of canton, mi 48188 since i purchase the brand new vehicle from them. the service representative informed me that my car had a timing cover leak that was to cost me approximately $1,300.00 to fix and that if i continued to drive it the leak would get worse. i am out of my two year warranty time period. the service representative told me that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the last two weeks with the same issue and one of them was even as low as $18,000 miles. he stated that at some point there would probably be a recall. i called toyota headquarters and opened case number [xxx] and wait to hear what their solution is. i advised that anything less than full repair by toyota at no charge to me would be unacceptable. such an issue should not potentially happen in a vehicle until 100,000 to 110, 000 miles. the fact that the service rep said that my car was the 6th they'd seen in the lat two weeks is a serious red flag. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

Since purchasing this vehicle in july 2009, when braking and coming to a stop, the 2010 toyota corolla frequently shudders as if it is going to stall, although it has not yet stalled. this was reported to the dealer (ira toyota manchester) during 5k mile routine maintenance on 1-30-10 and they responded that they have had about a dozen complaints about this from different owners and they don't know what the problem is. nothing was done. *tr
Bought new dec 18, 2009. toyota corolla le 14 miles. when you go to stop at a red light or stop sign. the engine some times acts like it is going to stall. you touch the brakes just as you come to a dead stop. the engine rpms will drop to about 300 rpms the engine will shutter all most die and then go back to normal rpms about 500 to 600 hundred. this is an intermittent problem. you can not make the car do this. you may drive it 5 times and it will not do anything like that. you drive it the next time and it will do it three times in a roll when you stop. it has done this from the time it was new. *tr
I have a toyota corolla 2010 which i bought in the first week of august 2009. while i was driving to sacramento around last august, my car lost power in the middle of a freeway. i was in the fast lane, and unable to operate the car. i realized that the engine was not there, it went off, no power and the car decreased its speed and finally stopped. fortunately i was able to get out in the left emergence lane. if it was a rush hour and traffic was busy, i would have an accident. fortunately, there was no accident. after thinking for 5 minutes or so, i turned on the engine and started driving again. last week i went to toyota dealer (for the recall) and told my situation. but they didn't give much attention to my concerns. i know come to realize that this may not be my problem and someone may have the same problem. i need help how this happen and if the problem occurs in other area, please prevent it happening again. so that we will save life. *tr
