Often referred clock spring as it is referred to part number 84307-47020 it affects a multitude of things on my car that are safety related including the horn, the buttons on the steering wheel that control the radio and tricks odometer, the airbag, maybe be airbags plearle, be adaptive cruise control and maybe other things. my knowledge my car has never been wrecked or had airbags blown and this is very premature for this part to fail. believe toyota should take responsibility for it. the warning light came on and it says in the manual that is unsafe to drive. do not have a clue why it failed. the toyota dealer repair is close to $900 which is ridiculous.
My car has a problem with the radar control. it has failed multiply times on the freeway when i had it in cruise. the problem is that a "beep beep goes off and then the car slows down for no apparent reason. this has happened mostly in wet weather but has failed many times. with no one in from of me. i had it in to toyota and then spent the whole day going over the car. they said there is nothing wrong with the car but maybe not use the cruise. they would not sent me a letter to the fact that they did not find anything wrong. it took me 3 to 4 days of calling and faxing to get this info. now the insurance company is telling me that before i bought this supposable new car in 2015 with only 8,000 miles on it that it has been wrecked or in 2 accidents before i bought it. i believe that there is something seriously wrong with it and it is a danger to drive it. can you help me.i can not supply you with any data other than my permission fax that i sent toyota to go through my car. my son drove the car or i am not the only one that witness this occurrence
Driver pulled into parking stall. foot on brake at curb. pushed the "p" button for park function on dash board. the car reved and lurched over the curb toward the building. driver continued to press brake pedal and swerved to avoid the building, yet scraped the side with side panel and running over tw0 recently planted trees. the car continued lurching for approximately 30-40 feet, back off of the curb, past to two parked cars (which sustained no damage). the car finally came to a rest on its own. the engine was still running until the "start/off" button was depressed. *js
