Unknown—he only performed the inspection, as I am a Lyft driver and my account was suspended due to a recall issued by the NHTSA.
The contact owned a 2011 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that while he was driving at 40 MPH, another vehicle that was speeding caused a multiple vehicle collision. During the collision, the contact was in the middle lane when the speeding vehicle crashed into a vehicle in the left lane, and that vehicle merged violently into the middle lane, causing the contact to rear-end the vehicle in front due to the driver abruptly stopping. During the attempt to stop, the vehicle failed to decelerate sufficiently. Upon impact, the frontal air bags failed to fully deploy, as they only partially emerged from the housing. The failure experienced was a loss of braking effectiveness at 40 MPH that resulted in a rear-end collision, during which the frontal air bags failed to deploy. The vehicle was towed to a family member's home. The tire pressure warning was the only warning light on at the time of the crash. The driver was injured. Injuries sustained were lower back, right side ribs, and neck pain that required medical attention. The vehicle was deemed totaled by insurance. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 124,000.

I am submitting a safety concern regarding airbag non-deployment involving my former vehicle, a 2011 Toyota Corolla LE (VIN: [XXX] ). This vehicle was subject to multiple Takata airbag recalls, including a 2018 front airbag recall and a May 2020 Takata non-deployment and seatbelt pretensioner interim recall. Beginning in Spring 2021, the airbag warning light illuminated intermittently. On May 30, 2024, diagnostic trouble codes B1813 and B1818 were recorded, indicating faults involving the driver and passenger airbag squib circuits and potential center airbag sensor assembly involvement. A recall-related repair was completed on June 6, 2024 with installation of a Harness Kit (04009-98112) under extended warranty associated with a class action settlement. Following subsequent service, the airbag warning light was no longer illuminated. After these repairs, the vehicle was later involved in a rear-end collision in which the airbags did not deploy. The vehicle was declared a total loss and is no longer in my possession. Given the vehicle’s documented history of airbag system recalls and prior SRS fault codes, I am submitting this incident for safety documentation and review.

Part of a customer support repair program through Toyota. It expired, and Toyota Customer Care at 1-888-270-9371 told me to file a complaint at NHTSA.gov. So I am filing a complaint. The paint is peeling on my car rapidly and I have missed the support program deadline because it was not happening in the timeframe they created for this problem. But there is no reason for my pain to be peeling like it is other than manufacture error.
I am writing to formally request a recall or resolution for a significant defect in my [2011, Toyota, Corolla] vehicle, which I purchased in 2011. Over time, the paint on my vehicle has begun peeling extensively, affecting not just the aesthetics but also potentially the resale value and durability of the car. This issue appears to be a widespread problem among vehicles of similar make and year, suggesting a potential manufacturing defect. Given the extent of the paint deterioration, I kindly request that Toyota Company acknowledge and address this issue through a recall or appropriate corrective measures. Vehicle Details: Make & Model: Toyota, Corolla Year: 2011 VIN: [XXX] Current Mileage: 80,000 Estimated I would appreciate a prompt response regarding my request. Please let me know the next steps in addressing this concern, including any available remedies Toyota may offer. You may contact me at [XXX] or [XXX] at your earliest convenience.

While driving on a straight road steering wheel suddenly jerk hard left and right several times for just a few seconds and then went normal. This caused the car to cross lane into oncoming traffic.

No warning lamps lit up and no fault codes per dealership technician.
While driving my car seat seat (driver side) starts to over heat. I do not have heated car seats.but within the past few weeks I have noticed that my car seat started to heat up.

Sunroof suddenly exploded while driving 40 MPH on a highway No evidence of projectile was in the car. The glass was volcanoed up. It was around 50 degrees outside. I was immediately confused as to what happened. I was traveling in a merging lane and could have vered into the other lane and hit another car. Glass was Falling down onto me and the passenger seat. No police were called I took the vehicle to a glass repair. Insurance was not involved as my dectiable would not have been meet for the cost of the repairs. No warning or any symptoms the sunroof glass from the car. Itjust suddenly exploded for no reason.
I was notified of the air bag recall a year ago but the car dealerships in my area does not have the parts and I need to use my vehicle daily. So I am not sure what to do from here for that but I believe that the appropriate time to remedy this recall has past already and the fact that we have our children riding with us and we are unaware that their life is in danger or because we can not get it fixed is not acceptable. Then on top of that I am having issues like when my 2011 Corolla is sitting idle it will rev up the engine without touching the gas pedal and does this randomly and without warning and also while I am driving around 55 MPH on the interstate or highway sometimes it will dramatically drop and lose about 10- 15 MPH speed for no reason and this happens randomly as well. And this fluctuation happens during cruise control the most so I no longer even use that function. Also both headlights have moisture in them and are so fogged up now that visibility is almost impossible at night now. Also the weather striping around all my windows have dry rotted and broke off and there is practically nothing left of stripping anymore. Then the center dash above the radio just broke and gave out under my phone holder while driving, it broke into about 15 different pieces. I know that my phone or the holder is even close to heavy enough to cause the dash panel to cave in like that. I called to get a price on the dash and it was like $250+ and who can afford that for a piece of plastic. Lastly my driver and passenger seat will get stuck if you try adjusting them and sometimes it will let you move the seat but to do so you have to hop up and down for several minutes and throughout the adjustment to get the seat to move in any direction.

Lastly my driver and passenger seat will get stuck if you try adjusting them and sometimes it will let you move the seat but to do so you have to hop up and down for several minutes and throughout the adjustment to get the seat to move in any direction.
I was notified of the air bag recall a year ago but the car dealerships in my area does not have the parts and I need to use my vehicle daily. So I am not sure what to do from here for that but I believe that the appropriate time to remedy this recall has past already and the fact that we have our children riding with us and we are unaware that their life is in danger or because we can not get it fixed is not acceptable. Then on top of that I am having issues like when my 2011 Corolla is sitting idle it will rev up the engine without touching the gas pedal and does this randomly and without warning and also while I am driving around 55 MPH on the interstate or highway sometimes it will dramatically drop and lose about 10- 15 MPH speed for no reason and this happens randomly as well. And this fluctuation happens during cruise control the most so I no longer even use that function. Also both headlights have moisture in them and are so fogged up now that visibility is almost impossible at night now. Also the weather striping around all my windows have dry rotted and broke off and there is practically nothing left of stripping anymore. Then the center dash above the radio just broke and gave out under my phone holder while driving, it broke into about 15 different pieces. I know that my phone or the holder is even close to heavy enough to cause the dash panel to cave in like that. I called to get a price on the dash and it was like $250+ and who can afford that for a piece of plastic. Lastly my driver and passenger seat will get stuck if you try adjusting them and sometimes it will let you move the seat but to do so you have to hop up and down for several minutes and throughout the adjustment to get the seat to move in any direction.

WHENEVER I AM DRIVING BETWEEN 15-25 MPH, THE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE IT'S DRAGGING WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON.THE RPM WOULD RANDOMLY SURGE THEN DROP AS THE VEHICLE GOES OVER 25 OR UNDER 15MPH. WHICH FEELS LIKE THE TRANSMISSION PROGRAMMING TO SWITCH BETWEEN GEARS IS HAVING TROUBLE TO DO SO AT THE CORRECT RPM FOR A SMOOTH GEAR CHANGE!

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A CITY STREET WHEN A VEHICLE CHANGED LANES WITHOUT WARNING INTO MY LANE. MY FIRST REACTION WAS TO HONK AS I SWERVED TO AVOID BEING HIT. THE HORN DID NOT WORK, THANK GOD MY THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM FOR ME TO MOVE TO AVOID BEING HIT. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN FOR THE AIR BAG RECALL TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE FIXED. I'M WONDERING IF SOMETHING COULD HAVE HAPPENED TO THE SPIRAL CABLE THEN OR IF IT IS JUST A FAULTY EQUIPMENT. WENT I GOT HOME I KEPT TRYING TO MAKE MY CAR HONK AND I NOTICED WHEN I TURN MY STEERING WHEEL A CERTAIN WAY IT HONKED. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND ASKED ABOUT THE HORN AND WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE A $200 FEE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND THAT MONEY WOULD GO TOWARDS THE COST OF GETTING IT FIXED. I ASKED WHAT THE MAXIMUM COST WOULD BE HE SAID $400. SO THEY DIAGNOSED MY VEHICLE AND SAID THE PART IS $600 AND I HAD 2 WEEKS TO DECIDE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY ANYMORE MONEY TO HAVE THIS FIXED. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE TOYOTA SHOULD CORRECT THIS SAFETY ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED! A HORN CAN MAKE A LIFE OR DEATH DIFFERENCE.
