When I turn off the LTA switch, it stays on..in other words the steering is affected, and warning beeps sound when I cross into another lane. This is both irritating and dangerous. I brought it in to Orland Toyota for service. The service advisor related that the Technician who worked on it said the computer in the car shows that it-??s working properly, and they are going with that. When I protested, he said there is nothing they can do about it..He further said that I would have to turn off the sway warning every time I turn on the car.The service manager told me that cars he drive home every night, sometimes have problems with the LTA. The only entry re this problem on my service receipt is: -??Tech: HOUSE TECH (996) Internal-??. The problem began right after the vehicle turned 24,000 miles and persists to the present. Thanks for your help..
Can not turn off the lane departure warning (LDW) feature. It can only be placed at a low setting. Surging when depressing brake. Noticed this occurring when slowing pulling into the garage, was not a deal breaker as was barely moving and never got to close to hit anything else in the garage. Once it snowed this surging began happening when braking to slow down to make turns. This surging was scary, even with studded snow tires. Driving home from work one evening, it had rained and was turning to black ice; going around a slight curve on the bridge and close to the white line; the car decided to pull me away from the white line. This was the final straw, not going to allow a car to make the decision to pull on black ice or other driving conditions. I did not want to become a statistic by having this vehicle cause a car wreck and hurt myself or other drivers. I had contacted Toyota Care and they said it was not a warranty issue. That is when I knew it was time to get rid of this hybrid after only 5 months. Other issues with this vehicle: can not lift the driver-??s side windshield wiper, massive design flaw. Anyone who lives in snowy climates need to be able to lift their wipers to clean off the snow and/or leave the wipers up so they don-??t freeze to the windshield. Another item I contacted Toyota Care about is the bumper/fender/wheel casing. This separated -?" cheap plastic. Again, they said not a warranty issue. Didn-??t have this problem with the Corolla.
