As i was transitioning from a stop to a slow start, the vehicle accelerated suddenly from 0 rpm to 5 rpm. i was able to slam on brakes to stop the vehicle but i almost crashed into another vehicle in the process. i was crossing a intersection - on a leveled street
When needing to accelerate the car takes off like a jet rocket when the pedal is pressed. the car seems to be out of control and shaking violently. this happens usually on highway when going above 50. feels very unsafe. this is a used car i bought. this happens on a regular basis.
While driving on a street named hamner this afternoon on a warm day in the city of norco with clear skies traveling approximately 15 mph my 2010 corolla did not stop at a distance of about 15 feet when i applied the brake pedal and that caused me to hit another vehicle. the brake system failure which felt like the anti-lock brake system where the brakes did not engage but rather made a pulsating movement against my rotors caused my vehicle to keep moving and inevitably i could not stop my vehicle. on several occasions i have brought this issue up to toyota service departments at numerous dealers in the past years and i was given no solutions. the explanation after showing the technicians was that it was normal and should not be a problem. this brake issue caused me to not have braking system power to safely come to a stop prior to the collision today. i believe that toyota is liable for the failure in the brake system including but not limited to the damage created today to not only my vehicle but also to the vehicle to which this accident today involved including any known or unknown ...
Re: i haven't followed up on rcmn-10v017-5275 as i hadn't noticed a problem living in an area with level streets. however, when trying to park or leave a parking space on an incline or decline it is a problem. when moving in or out of a parking, i noticed that my gas pedal is very sensitive. it lurches my car quickly forward. this is not about my parking technique. someone else familiar with parking on these streets is concerned about the car's acceleration. is this issue related to needing a remedy to the above recall notice. if yes, can i get this fixed for free even though my notice has expired? what do you suggest.
Cruise control active, i made a speed change using the steering column lever when the engine went to 6,000 rpm in full acceleration. my speed was about 65 on a rural road prior to this event. i tapped the accelerator with no change, then the brake which cancelled the uncommanded acceleration.
My car suddenly turn on most of the dash lights: brake,abs, power steering, and the speedometer , temperature gauge, revolution gauge and air conditioner stop working. the vehicle was stationary when all tis problems stated start to happen
During the operation of the vehicle on a normal surface street during morning commute through city streets following traffic at speeds not exceeding 35 mph the vehicle seemed to have accelerated (sped up) during the application of the brake causing the vehicle to strike the vehicle in front of it. the damage to the vehicle struck was not visible due to the slow speed, but it did cause minor damage to the vehicle in question. during the event the driver perceived acceleration at the time of the application of the brakes and the sound associated with the anti-lock features being engaged. at the end of the incident the brake pedal was depressed all the way down to the floor. this is very concerning since the reaction of the vehicle was opposite of the driver command. the vehicle is part of the toyota smart stop company recall, but the software update was not done since it is considered optional for the owner to do. based on the reasons for the recall it is concerning that the condition it is addressing may have occurred. because this report is based on driver perception i only request ...
At approx 11:30 pm on july 15th 2016, my fianc, myself and 2 of our friends were heading home from downtown miami on i-95. it was raining extremely hard, so everyone was going well below the speed limit. i would approx we were going 35-40 mph. the car in front of us slammed on his breaks due to the rain coming down extremely hard, and i proceeded to do the same. however instead of my car breaking, it began accelerating 10-15mph. luckily there were no cars to my right and i was able to veer out of the way of the car in front of us, or else we would of been in a horrible car accident and possibly dead. as expected, my fianc is extremely shooken up by what happened. i know this is a known issue with the 2010 corolla and i have taken my car in for all the recalls and inspections but obviously there is something still wrong with the 2010 corollas because i almost died tonight die to unexpected acceleration
I am the owner of a 2010 toyota corolla, whose vin number is: [xxx]. that car had a low mileage when i brought to germain toyota in naples, florida, to fix any problem at that time that had caused the "engine light" to appear on the dash. i was told that the "gas cap" was the problem and that i needed to replace it; i followed their recommendation. but, one day after the same light appeared again. disappear; therefore, i decided not to come back for that same thing. recently, in several occasions the car suddenly stopped working while i was driving it both in local and highway 75 without any warning or sign that such thing was going to happen: ?the gas pedal just goes to zero, that means the pressure went quickly and suddenly to no pressure, and three lights are shown on the dash.? thank god, i am still alive! i took the car to germain toyota, they had urged me to replace the "battery," which i did. the problem resurfaced the day after. the second time, they asked me to replace the "ecu," which i did. that cost me more than $800, close ...
