GOOD AFTERNOON I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA YARIS WITH AROUND 108,000 MILES. I MADE AN APPT WITH A LOCAL DEALER TO GO THRU 3 RECALLS IN MY CAR AND ADDITIONALLY TO CHECK ON MY REAR-DRIVER SEATBELT WHICH IS NOT RETRACTING (IT FAILED ON 6-26-16) . I HAVE READ VARIOUS FORUMS STATING THAT VARIOUS OWNERS OF MY MODEL CAR HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. THE DEALER FINISHED THE 3 RECALLED ISSUES. THE ISSUE WITH THE REAR SEATBELT WAS RELATED TO A BALL BEARING IN THE SYSTEM THAT WAS NOT ALLOWING FOR THE SEATBELT TO RECOIL. THE DEALER WANTED AROUND $350 TO FIX THE ISSUE. I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THE CAR IS NOT NEW BUT AN ITEM THAT IS NEEDED FOR SAFETY SHOULD NOT GO BAD WITHIN A FAIRLY LONG TIMELINE, IT SHOULD AT LEAST OUTLAST THE CAR. I HAVE READ VARIOUS FORUMS WITH PEOPLE COMPLAINING ON THIS SAME PROBLEM. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A PROBLEM RELATED TO QUALITY AND SAFETY OF THE EQUIPMENT TOYOTA SELLS? ADDITIONAL NOTE: THE DEALER REFUSED TO FIX MY CAR'S AIRBAG (TAKATA RECALL) BECAUSE THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS YET. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ON THE TOYOTA YARIS 2007 THE ACCELERATOR SENSOR ASSEMBLY IS MADE OF PLASTIC. AS I WOULD GO AROUND CORNERS THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE EVEN IF I PUSHED THE PEDAL ALL THE WAY DOWN. THE CAR WOULD BECOME A VIRTUAL SLUG THEN ACCELERATE QUICKLY. BECAUSE OF THE POOR DESIGN THE ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS CANNOT MAKE GOOD CONTACT GOING AROUND CORNERS, UP HILL OR FROM A DEAD STOP.THIS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO BE HIT SEVERAL TIMES. I TOOK IT IN TO BE REPAIRED ($215.95) YET BEING OF PLASTIC IT CAN HAPPEN AGAIN. THIS DEFECT HAS CAUSED SOME TO BELIEVE THE CAR IS ACCELERATING BY ITSELF WHEN IN REALITY ITS SIMPLY STALLING (BAD CONNECTION) THEN KICKING IN TO ACCELERATE - *TR

I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE REGARDING THE AIR BAGS ON OUR TOYOTA YARIS AND TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR TO TOYOTA OF NEW BERN, 5010 HIGHWAY 70 EAST, NEW BERN, NC, 252 637 7200. THE RECALL SPECIFIED A SPIRAL CABLE REPLACEMENT. SUBSEQUENTLY, TOYOTA OF NEW BERN SERVICE SAID THEY REPLACED THE CABLE BUT THAT ANOTHER PROBLEM PREVENTED THEM FROM REPAIRING THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIRBAG. THE COST TO REPAIR THIS DEFECT WOULD RUN $1,600, I WAS TOLD. I CALLED CORPORATE TOYOTA WHICH REITERATED THAT REPAIRS COULD NOT BE MADE WITHOUT PAYMENT FOR REPAIR OF A BROKEN WIRE BEHIND INTERIOR TRIM WITHIN THE CAR. I AM SOMEWHAT AT A LOSS SINCE THERE IS NOT SIGN OF ANY DAMAGE TO INTERIOR TRIM SUFFICIENT TO BREAK WIRES BEHIND IT. AND FRANKLY I HAVE ONLY THE WORD OF TOYOTA THAT THEY DID INDEED REPLACE THE SPIRAL CABLE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG REMAINS INOPERATIVE UNTIL THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED, A RISK TO SAFETY AND A DETRIMENT TO ANY FUTURE SALE OF THE VEHICLE. . *TR
