This recall has been in effect for more than two years with no remedy provided. I also am concerned about takata airbags that may be in my vehicle, but I don't see a recall notice (although I regularly receive mail about potential takata airbag recalls). The power window master switch in the involved vehicles may have been manufactured with insufficient lubricant grease. Recall status recall incomplete remedy Toyota is currently preparing the remedy for this condition. Once remedy preparations are complete, Toyota will send an owner notification letter by first class mail to owners of vehicles covered by this safety recall. Additional details on the remedy will be provided in future communications. Safety risk descrpition if sufficient grease is not applied, under certain conditions the switch may develop a short circuit that can cause the switch assembly to overheat and melt. A melting switch can produce smoke and potentially lead to a fire.
Passenger side mirror exploding was driving my 2009 Yaris there was no one on the road, no truck no bike was all alone when suddenly heard a huge explosion, when I looked the passenger mirror was gone so was the back of it. It was very scary luckily I was on a small road not on a highway I went to Toyota dealer they don't believed me gave all kind of stories saying they never heard of it. Please can you tell me if they are lying to me. Thank you
I was driving at the regular speed limit and when the car in front of me was stopping to make a left hand turn. I stepped on my brake and the car would not stop. I was practically standing on the brake pedal and the car would not stop and I hit the car in front of me. The airbags deployed. I remember that a policeman told me to put on the emergency brake because the car was still sliding. I know I tried to stop and the car wouldn't stop. Based on their reports of Toyota's sticking accelerator, I thought this should be reported and investigated. I just came home last week. I broke 4 ribs in the accident and the car is totaled. I was in rehabilitation for 2 1/2 weeks. I would like to see this accident investigated. I have a clean driving record and I believe there may have been some type of mechanical issue that would not let me stop the car. The insurance salvage garage is holding the car for 60 days at our request so the car could be inspected.
