Phone charging cord is prone to getting pulled into the steering column and extremely difficult to remove. When I was able to remove the cord, I discovered a wire or spring the steering wheel assembly must have come undone, because the airbag light is on, and my cruise control no longer works, and neither do the steering wheel controls for the radio

I was at a red light. When the light turned green and I pressed the accelerator the car wouldn-??t move. The check engine, charging system malfunction and electronic power steering system warning light appeared on dash. Car locked up. I moved car into neutral and then drive and car was able to move. Took it to dealer next day. Cars almost ran into the back of me! I had just turned on the street from I-85! So far it hasn-??t been reproduced at dealer.

Purchased a 2019 toyota corolla from carvana that was delivered 2/26/22. When delivered, driver pointed out front end date that apparently happened "during transport". Vehicle had bad brakes & rotors that I replaced. Vehicle has one door that does not match the rest of the car. The history was disclosed as clean, no accidents. Carvana is refusing to switch the car out and has no record of me asking for it to be switched with an undamaged car. Payments are being made to bridgecrest and are on time despite me telling them I would return the car if they didn't cancel the loan for this defective car.

This vehicle has no gps support for android. We purchased for our daughter so she would not look at her phone while driving but did dinner reason Toyota representatives said we had to go thru sirius satellite radio to use the head unit of the car for gps. This is a completely unsafe situation for such a new car.

The brake booster is failing, the brake pedal is hard to push down almost resulting in a car crash. If I drive vehicle fast, it's hard to stop and slow vehicle down.

On one occassion after the vehicle was parked in the garaged for a couple of hours, I went out into the garage and heard a faint whispering/humming noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. I put the key in the ignition and turned it to the first position, then turned the key back and the sound stopped.

On several occasions, after turning off the car (plus minus 4 pm), when entering the garage (about 8 pm), a noise is felt, as if something electric were activated, apparently the noise comes near the fuel tank or in the gas outlet system, at that moment only the noise is removed, when I start the car and turn it off

Note: This is for the 2019 Corolla hatchback, not the sedan. It would apply to 2020 Corolla sedans as well, though, but not 2019 sedans. The hood over the instrument cluster is not large enough to sufficiently prevent glare on the instrument cluster, making the gauges difficult to read. See attached images, one showing the full glare, one using my hand to extend the "hood" of the gauge cluster and provide shade for the right half. Happens in motion or when stationary, completely dependent upon direction of the car and time of day.

Toyota case numbers are [xxx] and [xxx]. edr report was recorded by Toyota rep on 2/8/19 and sent to Bosch co in Michigan. Police recorded in the summons issued to me that it was brakes failure.
