For the manual version of the car the fifth gear moves a lot and has a lot of play. When driving in fifth gear the shifter moves a lot but not in any other gear. When the shifter is in fifth gear it has a lot of side to side play that is not present in the other gears.

In more than one time will coming to the free way when I have press the gas pedal the car will give a slight misfire and just not want to go releasing the gas pedal and pressing again then it will take off. Now with the steering every once in a while the steering wheel will actually pull to the left with force if I am driving one handed it will slip of my hand

After the recall transmission replacement was performed, started to hear a loud metal clanking on a slow speed when a vehicle is downshifting to the first gear. While this is happening the whole car brakes (transmission breaks it) for half a second.

There is a known safety recall affecting the transmission of this car such that it could lose motive power without warning. It was discovered on 12/19/18. After driving the car for weeks, I discovered the recall online, and ended up in a loaner. I was told by the Toyota customer experience center that the car was a safety hazard, and I could not be allowed to drive the vehicle. I have been in a loaner since 1/11/19 and calling regularly, but I still do not have a date for the end of this. They have clearly not been timely in getting out the new transmissions for the 2019 Toyota Corolla hatchbacks despite preparing and releasing on time an entire line of 2020 Toyota Corollas.

I received a letter from Toyota stating that there is a problem with the cvt and that it could fail. Under certain conditions it could cause the vehicle to lose power, especially at higher speeds. I have contacted them and there is no resolution as yet. I feel extremely unsafe driving this vehicle, I was told it would be addressed when I took the car in for the 5000 mile service but I was given erroneous information. I don't think I should have to wait for something to happen in order to resolve this issue. If a remedy is not available then I should be afforded a loner until such time when Toyota comes up with a fix.

Purchased vehicle new.in ft myers Florida on the day of 28th febuary. The vehicle displays problem at idle coasting speeds of 5 to 15 miles per hour in parking lots or stop and go traffic. The rotary component in transmission knocks and clicks.also the car clunks midly and will not ease into driving speed without clunking and clicking. Also the car displays the symptom of bad timing, with the timing of the motor being off, causing the motor to drag as if the throttle of car is set too loose or at too low of specified RPM.. and this is here writtin.the exact problem with the drive of my 2019 Toyota corrola hatchback.
