| Aug 2022 | VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | Vehicle's cruise control got stuck and would not turn off by the brake, the cruise control off button. The only way it would shut off is by swtitching the car into “B-(Low Gear/Engine Braking). Was cruising at 70 mph, and then the cruise control kept speeding the vehicle up to 100 mph, until I switched it into the “B”-(Low Gear/Engine Braking). Now if I wasn’t familiar with this type of car this could have been a tragedy that could have taken place on August 01, 2022. | Crash: No Fire: No Medical attention | Unknown |
| Aug 2022 | AIR BAGS | The contact's daughter owns a 2022 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving at highway speeds, she crashed into another vehicle as she approached sudden oncoming traffic. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. The contact was able to exit the vehicle and check on the other driver. A police report was filed. The contact was not offered medical attention at the scene and was able to drive the vehicle home. As her daughter was driving home, her boyfriend noticed that she began to stutter her words and instructed her to call the contact. The contact then instructed her to pull over and call for medical attention. She initially declined to go to the hospital due to her dog not being able to accompany her; however, the contact's daughter stated that she began to experience a tingling sensation down her left arm. Once at the hospital, her daughter was diagnosed with a severe concussion as the severe stuttering persisted. The contact's mother also noted that her personality has altered since the accident. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired for damages or investigated for the air bag failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

| Jul 2022 | STRUCTURE | Rain water accumulates in the doors of a brand new car that is only 4 weeks old. The only official fix, according to Toyota and NTSA, is to remove the plugs at the bottom so the water can drain out every time it rains. This is not a fix. The water should not be accumulating in the door at all. Over time, the repeated water accumulation will cause mold, mildew, rust and damage the electrical system. This is absolutely absurd. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2022 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM | After 2 months of purchasing the car , interior dashboard wrinkled and below the steep compartment . A week or so the door locks is not functioning all the time. Then after 3 weeks the black door strip is drooping . I emailed the branch manager and took it to the service depot. They said chemicals due to detailing the car . No one will detail the car of 2-3 months old Newly bought . Then they when they told me to bring again for the door is no longer functioning and the door strips and why the car is falling apart. There was 2 wreaks of rain so I did not car wash the car as I always do . They noticed moisture of the oil on the window outside .That the rubber does not like oil . I anoint the car with few sprinkles for decades on previous cars , Datsun, Nissan and Toyota . They said that caused it and I have to pay for the repair I told them I got Toyota Corolla for 10 years and I do what I do in the car and Nothing like this happened.Why now ? I bought the car 4-5x for the door locks and the 2 other issues they kept on putting in their work order summary - door locks functioning at this time ???? It never did function correctly and it never functioned at all on the 3rd , 4th and 5th time . Then they just give me the work order 2x instead of 4-5 different days of work orders in different months I am stuck .Car insurance does not pay because Toyota said chemicals and the other insurance said it wa not caused by accident . Someone opened the car mistakenly when I was texting because it has to lock manually and (I forgot )for almost a month now . I will email you the work orders next time . Please help .ASAP. Thanks . | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| May 2022 | VISIBILITY/WIPER | Soon after purchasing my car, there was a chip and crack in the windshield that had no known cause or occurred when it was not being driven. A couple months after that, there was a rock thrown up getting onto the highway that should not have broken the glass because it did not hit hard enough to typically break the glass and I also have a glass protectant on my windows. I fear there may be a defect in the glass used for the 2021/2022 Toyota Corollas because my friend with the same car, but year 2021 complained of the same problem. It should be investigated. Now I have to replace a windshield and pay a deductible because it is not covered under the extra services that I purchased for dints and dings. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
