Owners have filed 57 complaints
about the 2007 Toyota Corolla Matrix with NHTSA between 2014 and 2024.
The largest single group is the airbags.
Across this model's run it ranks 5 of 8 worst.
The letter says how bad. This says what kind — whether this year drew
an unusual number of complaints, unusually dangerous
ones, or failures that arrived unusually early.
The dashed ring is 50 — the national norm. Further out is worse.
Complaint volume — 49
Against the median year of the Toyota Corolla Matrix. 50 means typical for this
model; 100 means roughly double.
Severity — 63
12.3% of these complaints
involved a crash, fire, injury or death, against a national rate of
9.7%.
Early failure — 32
19% of failures with a mileage on record happened under
36,000 miles, against a national rate of
29%.

When owners complained
A spike years after the car went on sale usually means a part wearing
out on schedule across the whole fleet — the kind of pattern no single
owner can see from inside their own car.

NHTSA investigations into the 2007 Toyota Corolla Matrix
An investigation is the step before a recall: the agency has seen enough
complaints to look into a pattern itself. An open one means it thinks
something may be wrong and nothing has been fixed yet.
From 2000 through 2017, Takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("PSAN") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004L. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants.

Recalls on the 2007 Toyota Corolla Matrix
A complaint is one owner's allegation. A recall is the point at which
the manufacturer or a regulator agreed the defect is real and dangerous
enough to fix for free — however old the car is.

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) notified the agency on May 13, 2015 that they are recalling certain model year 2004 Sequoia vehicles manufactured August 18, 2003, to August 19, 2004, and 2003-2004 Tundra vehicles manufactured March 18, 2003, to August 25, 2004.

This is to address a safety defect in the passenger side frontal air bag inflator which may produce excessive internal pressure causing the inflator to rupture upon deployment of the air bag. This recall addresses both the passenger side frontal air bags that were originally installed in the vehicles, as well as replacement air bags that may have been installed as replacement service parts. A replacement air bag may have been installed, as one example, if a vehicle had been in a crash necessitating the replacement of the passenger side frontal air bag.
Risk: In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could rupture with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.

I have been waiting over 2 years for this passenger side airbag recall to be remedied. I was told a remedy was available about a year and a half ago, but despite many calls and service appointments where I left the car with Toyota (they even kept my car for nearly 9 hours once), they always tell me they don't have the part available and that they will call me when it becomes available (they still haven't). I tried multiple Toyota service centers in my area with the same results. The airbag was already recalled previously and the remedy was to replace it with an airbag part that was also recalled, so in actuality it has probably been over 5 years since the original recall and after all this time my car still has an airbag inflator that may cause fire, injury or death. I paid for a car so I could use all of the available seating, and for most of my time owning it and for the foreseeable future I'm being told by Toyota not to use the front passenger seat. Totally unacceptable, regardless of parts shortage this shouldn't be a problem to bear solely by the vehicle owner, I have never been offered a loaner or anything to make up for the money I wasted on a car I can't use as advertised.

THE PROBLEM IS NOT SPECIFIC TO THIS CAR. THE TIRE SPEED RATING SYSTEM IN USE TODAY IS LONG OVERDUE FOR UPGRADING. PROBLEM 1 IS THE CONFUSION THAT EXISTS BETWEEN Y AND (Y). ONLINE TIRE DEALERS OFTEN BLUR THE TWO CATEGORIES. PROBLEM 2 IS THE ACTUAL SPEED RATING OF (Y) -- IT IS UNKNOWN BUT HIGHER THAN 186. PROBLEM 3 IS THAT TIRES IN THE UPPER RANGES ARE NOT SEPARATED. IF YOU BUY TIRES FOR A 2004 FORD GT, THEY MUST BE GOOD FOR UP TO 215 MPH, BUT 270 MPH IS NOT NECESSARY. THERE ARE MANY TIRES THAT ARE GOOD FOR 215 BUT NOT 270 MPH. THE CURRENT SYSTEM DOES NOT TELL CONSUMERS WHICH TIRE IS SAFE! I PROPOSE A NEW METRIC-BASED SYSTEM. THE FOLLOWING SPEED RATINGS WOULD ASSIGNED TO EACH TIRE: SPEED RATING 15 (150 KM/H) 20 (200 KM/H) 25 (250 KM/H) 30 (300 KM/H) 35 (350 KM/H) 40 (400 KM/H) 45 (450 KM/H) 50 (500 KM/H)
