I have been driving my car since 2016, however since Nov 24, 2023. Incidents that alarm me have happen. I have filed a police report but don't have the funds to get vehicle swept. All of these events occur while I am driving. Passenger windows goes up in and down a lot. Static in my speakers. Steering wheels lock. somethings draining my battery. though I have ensured nothings on or there isn't any short fuses. Doors unlock. Door beeps though someone has had access. Trunk pops open. I am reaching out to NHTSA because my safety is at risk. Is any other Corolla owners reporting this. Please assist me.

We discovered that there was an explosion of some sort inside the car on the passenger side, which seems to have potentially involve the air bag system and/or electrical around the system, but this is not entirely known. The car was parked at the time and had not been driven for approximately 65 hours. It appears there was a fire but we did not witness. The dash is melted leaving a gaping hole, what appears to be portions of the air bag are partially disintegrated and stuck to the ceiling, the ceiling is charred, the sun visor is melted and distorted, and hanging down, underneath the dash is also melted, and the smell in the car is absolutely stifling. The windshield is shattered in one spot, with additional cracks stemming from that point of contact. The windshield is damaged from the impact from inside the car and is pushing out. The car was locked, there is no evidence of forced entry or attempted forced entry. It has never been in a collision. The car was parked three feet away from our motorhome in the confines of our RV spot at an asphalt campground. The safety of all in the area was at risk, and furthermore, since this explosion was unprovoked, if we had been in the car at the time, it's unimaginable as to what sort of bodily damage the passengers, especially the passenger seat occupant, would have incurred. I do not believe the problem can be reproduced, but the car has yet to be inspected. I am currently awaiting insurance to take the car via tow truck to inspect it. There were no warnings, messages, or other symptoms.

12/09/2019, The ECU did not have adequate protection against certain electrical noise that occurred during the collision. Airbags did not deploy in the event of under ride collision, a freak accident involving wildlife crossing the street. Seat belt pretensioners did not engage. I called Allstate insurance that same day. Had I not worn my seat belt, I might have gone through the windshield. Safety was in danger, and not protected. Meineke informed me the oil housing component, fused onto the component that allows for an oil change because it was made with a plastic material, that is an incorrect material, Oxygen sensor lit up after that finding. Vehicle is not available for inspection upon request. Tyler Law Enforcement might have inspected the vehicle in general. My VIN for my vehicle does not describe the style of my vehicle, which is a 2016 Toyota Carolla Sport, Red.

The wiring inside of the front doors became corroded on two different cars. This resulted in the inability to operate the electric windows of one car. I view this as a safety hazard as the ability to exit the car from the window in an emergency is impaired. Other tasks such as paying tolls is made risky as the door must be opened.

The door locks are malfunctioning causing the door not to open. When simply pushing the button on the fob or even placing the car into park the door attempt to unlock but fail. Some door locks operate fine and some get stuck. Passenger front lock and rear driver locks are having this issue on my Toyota. This occurs when stationary.

Received another recall notice on another Toyota Corolla le vehicle. I have made a complaint in 2018 when I had a prior 2010 Toyota Corolla le and the jim white Toyota dealership in toledo, Ohio had my vehicle for over 1 year- sitting in their parking lot with no word on a part remedy- after complaining to your organization and Toyota corporate- the dealer offered me the 2016 Toyota Corolla le - I had to put down $3,000 and have a higher car note- I also expressed concerns about experiencing another recall which I was assured I wouldn't- but now I am. Toyota has failed once again. I was part of the Toyota takata class action lawsuit for over 2years and received a measly $62 check for all the agony I went through. I am scheduled to bring my vehicle in this Thursday, April 30, 2020 at 9:30 am and was promised I would not experience what I had before- but well see and I will keep you updated.

While I was driving on a street, my car started to stall, and die, this has happened 3 times. It just happened today, I was driving on the street, and the engine just stopped, and car stopped running, I had to pull over and make sure it was in drive, and start it up again. I almost got hit by another car, because the engine stopped running. Another time I was driving on the street about to get on the freeway, and the car stalled, died. I checked to make sure it was in drive, adjusted it and then kept going. I called the dealer today, and will take my car there in mesa, AZ on Saturday to be checked. It seemed there was a recall for this same problem, but with Toyota Tacoma. I am really concerned about my safety! I'm driving, and all of a sudden my car just stops running and dies. The car shuts off without warning, and there are no lights or messages inside my car, to let me know what the problem is. My car is only a 2016, which I purchased new. I only have a little over 60,000 miles. The problem is unknown to me.

After purchasing this car, we noticed that the front speakers were not working correctly. It was taken to a repair shop and the mechanic indicated that they were not installed correctly at the factory. The electrical speaker contacts were pointed upwards which effectively damaged them over time from the moisture accumulating within the front doors. Both speakers, passenger and driver sides, indicating the wiring error. Both were replaced by the shop and at their suggestion, I am alerting you to the problem.

Trac off, check engine, and maintenance required lights suddenly appeared while the Corolla was being driven on a state road. The car had just passed its 20,000 warranty check with no problems. I was on the way to a regularly scheduled oncology appointment. I had to cancel the appointment and drive the car to the dealer. Technicians determined a rodent had chewed through the transmission control harness. This problem is not covered by any Toyota warranty. So far, I've been forced to spend nearly $1,000 on rodent-related repairs. I have stage iv cancer. I bought this car expressly to have reliable transportation to cancer treatments, most of which are out of state. I can't afford these rat-related repairs. Letters and phone calls to Toyota have proved futile and frustrating. The rats are considered by the corporation as an outside source, and therefore, not covered by any warranty. The "outside source" is the soy that was stupidly used to make the insulation protecting the engine's electrical wiring, crisscrossing the engine. I had a 1991 Toyota that I parked in the same unprotected, driveway spot for nearly 25 years where the newer Corolla is now parked. There were no rodent issues whatsoever. Same for a 1991 Jeep Wrangler. Ditto a 1997 Buick lasabre. The only car being eaten by mice and rats is the newest car--the 2016 Corolla with soy-based wiring. Soy is a food source. I know. I grew up on a farm and we fed it to our cows as a protein source. I need a reliable, economical car to get to lifesaving cancer treatments. This car isn't it. Toyota could care less. For that, the company needs to be held accountable. They are risking the lives of everyone who owns one of these rat trap cars. So far, Toyota has absolved themselves of all responsibility for this inherent and dangerous manufacturing defect. I can't fight stage iv breast cancer and Toyota. Thank you.

The contact owns a 2016 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that when attempting to accelerate, the vehicle failed to accelerate. The vehicle's speedometer failed to indicate the accurate speed of the vehicle. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer where the failure was unable to be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had not been made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.
