MY CAR HAD EARLY SIGNS OF PROBLEMS WITHIN ONLY THE SECOND YEAR. IT HAD STOPPED TWO TIMES. IF THIS CAR STOPS BEFORE THE 18,000 OR LEMON LAW RETURN IT. I THEN WAS NOTIFIED THAT IT HAD 3 RECALLS. MY CAR WAS ACTUALLY STILL DRIVEABLE. I ALSO WANT TO DISCLOSE THAT I DEALL WITH ENVIROMENTAL ALLERGIES. I HAD THE VEHICLE FIXED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO PROBLEM. HOWEVER, AFTER THE RECALLS WERE FIXED WITH THE FUEL PUMP AND AIR BAG I STARTED TO BECOME EXTREMLY ILL . I EVER PURCHASED A VOC MONITOR AND WAS ABLET TO DETECT GAS AT DANGEROUS LEVELS. MY DEALER TOYOTA BOWIE AND THE MANUFACTURER DID LITTLE TO NOTHING TO ACCOMODATE ME. I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER TOYOTA AGAIN, OR A CAR PERIOD UNLESS I CAN PAY FOR IT IN CASH UPFRONT. THE VEHICLES VOC TURNED DANGEROUS AFTER TURNING ON THE CAR FOR 10MINUTES STRAIGHT.

THE VEHICLE THEN APPLIES THE BRAKES FORCIBLY TO SLOW TO THE SET SPEED. IT SEEMS TO DOWNSHIFT BUT DOESN'T LET OFF THROTTLE SO IT SPEEDS UP RATHER THAN ENGINE BRAKE.

CAR RECENTLY IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. DRIVES AT HIGH RPMS AND IF I ACCELERATE TOO QUICKLY SAY I GET UP TO 80 MPH ON HIGHWAY CAR WON'T SHIFT INTO NEXT GEAR THE RPMS SUDDENLY DROP ALL THE WAY DOWN TO UNDER 1000 AND QUITS ACCELERATING UNTIL IT JUMPS BACK INTO GEAR. HAVE TO LET FOOT OFF THE GAS FOR IT TO SHIFT AND CRUISE CONTROL HAS BEEN NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY EITHER.

NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
