The timing chain broke while the vehicle was in motion. Per multiple online sources, many of reported that the VVTi malfunction can cause premature wearing of the timing chain. There were only 140K miles on the vehicle. The vehicle was inspected by two Toyota dealerships. There were no warning signs of this happening. The car stopped running in the middle of an intersection.

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA, WHOSE VIN NUMBER IS: [XXX]. THAT CAR HAD A LOW MILEAGE WHEN I BROUGHT TO GERMAIN TOYOTA IN NAPLES, FLORIDA, TO FIX ANY PROBLEM AT THAT TIME THAT HAD CAUSED THE "ENGINE LIGHT" TO APPEAR ON THE DASH. I WAS TOLD THAT THE "GAS CAP" WAS THE PROBLEM AND THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE IT; I FOLLOWED THEIR RECOMMENDATION. BUT, ONE DAY AFTER THE SAME LIGHT APPEARED AGAIN. DISAPPEAR; THEREFORE, I DECIDED NOT TO COME BACK FOR THAT SAME THING. RECENTLY, IN SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT BOTH IN LOCAL AND HIGHWAY 75 WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR SIGN THAT SUCH THING WAS GOING TO HAPPEN: ?THE GAS PEDAL JUST GOES TO ZERO, THAT MEANS THE PRESSURE WENT QUICKLY AND SUDDENLY TO NO PRESSURE, AND THREE LIGHTS ARE SHOWN ON THE DASH.? THANK GOD, I AM STILL ALIVE! I TOOK THE CAR TO GERMAIN TOYOTA, THEY HAD URGED ME TO REPLACE THE "BATTERY," WHICH I DID. THE PROBLEM RESURFACED THE DAY AFTER. THE SECOND TIME, THEY ASKED ME TO REPLACE THE "ECU," WHICH I DID. THAT COST ME MORE THAN $800, CLOSE TO $900. THE THREE LIGHTS REAPPEARED AFTER TWO DAYS. I CAME BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO GERMAIN TOYOTA, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS ANOTHER THING THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM. LAST WEEK, THE FIRST WEEK OF DECEMBER, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THEM FOR THE SAME LIGHTS, AND THEY TOLD ME TO REPLACE AGAIN THE "GAS CAP," I PAID ANOTHER MONEY, BUT THE SAME PROBLEM CONTINUES TO GO ON AND ON AND PERSIST EVERY WEEK. THE DEALER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND ACCEPT THAT IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT. THOSE THINGS HAPPENED BOTH IN STREETS AND HIGHWAY I-75. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE TO CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT ANYMORE, AND I DO NOT WANT TO SELL IT TO PLACE SOMEONE ELSE'S LIFE IN PERIL. THEREFORE, I ASK YOUR DEPARTMENT FOR HELP. I CANNOT KEEP ON SPENDING ALMOST EVERY WEEK FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I THANK YOU IN ADVANCE! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TWO ISSUES: RADIO CONTROLS FAIL; USUALLY WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPS NEAR/ABOVE 100F. TOUCHING ANY CONTROL TURNS OFF RADIO, SPITS OUT CD. CAUSES ME TO FOCUS ON RADIO INSTEAD OF DRIVING. DEALER NO HELP. SEEN THE PROBLEM LISTED BY OTHERS ONLINE INC. YOUTUBE VIDEO OF THE RADIO ACTING UP. 2ND ISSUE: JUST HAD TO REPLACE WATER PUMP, APPROX. 150,000 MILES. APPEARS THERE WAS SOME SORT OF RECALL BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE ANY NOTICE. REPLACED 7/16/16

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. MY 2010 COROLLA HAS SUDDENLY STARTED BURNING (NOT LEAKING) OIL AT THE RATE OF 1 QUART PER EVERY 1500 MILES. I NOTICED THIS HAPPENING A FEW MONTHS AGO AND HAVE BEEN CAREFULLY WATCHING IT. MY MECHANIC SAID IT IS MOST LIKELY A DEFECTIVE ENGINE OR PISTON RINGS. VERY COSTLY TO REPAIR. I BELIEVE TOYOTA KNOWINGLY PUT THESE DEFECTIVE ENGINES IN THE 2010 COROLLA. THEY PUT THE SAME ENGINE IN OTHER COROLLAS UP TO 2009. OBVIOUSLY IN THE 2010 ALSO. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. I'M SURE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS ISSUE. WHAT ARE MY OPTIONS?

ENGINE
WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES, MY CAR WILL REV UP. ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M GOING DOWN HILL. ANOTHER CONCERN IS THAT MY CAR WILL MAKE A 2-3 SECOND RATTLING NOISE UPON STARTING UP. IT ONLY MAKES THIS NOISE ONCE IN A WHILE AND IT IS COMING FROM THE ENGINE. ANOTHER ISSUE I'M HAVING IS THE CAR'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, TRACK LIGHT AND VSC OFF LIGHT COMING ON SIMULTANEOUSLY ON ANY RAINY DAY AND STAYING ON FOR SEVERAL DAYS AFTER IT HAS STOPPED RAINING. I AVOID DRIVING AT FAST SPEEDS WHEN ITS RAINY BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THE CAR IS VERY UNSTABLE. MY DRIVER SIDE WINDOW WONT OPEN OR CLOSE AND VERY COLD DAYS AND OTHER DAYS IT MAKES A WEIRD NOISE. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR USED AND IT HAS ABOUT 79K MILES ON IT.

ONCE GAIN AFTER GETTING A NEW ENGINE PUT INTO THIS CAR 3 MONTHS BACK, OUR CAR EXPERIENCED YET ANOTHER PROBLEM - THE OXYGEN GAUGE IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE ENGINE'S EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS GONE BAD. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK, THE ENGINE LIGHT AND VSC ILLUMINATES AGAIN. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION, THIS IS THE DEALERSHIP'S FAULT SINCE IT DEALING WITH THE ENGINE, OR UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOPE. I ENDED UP PAYING FOR THE REPAIR AGAIN. I HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS IN A SINGLE CAR. THIS CAR IS ACCIDENT FREE AND NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR DAMAGES DONE. I BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A FAULTY CAR AND COULD BE A RISK FACTOR TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

ENGINE
MY FAMILY AND I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW TOYOTA COROLLA 2010 LE FROM LUSTINE TOYOTA, WOODBRIDGE, VIRGINIA IN 2010. FOR THE PAST FIVE YEARS, SINCE WE OWED THE VEHICLE, WE HAVE DID ALL THE OIL, FILTER CHANGES, AND THE REQUIRED MAINTENANCE, I.E., TIRE ROTATIONS, ALIGNMENT, AND THE DIFFERENT MILES INSPECTION ON TIME AND NEVER MISSED A SINGLE MAINTENANCE OR CHECK-UPS. WE CAN PROVIDE PROPER DOCUMENTATIONS, IF NEEDED. WHEN THE CAR REACHED THE 34,000 MILES, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE LUSTINE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY FIX THE VEHICLE. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED US THAT IT WAS A PART OF A RECALL ISSUE, AND NO FEES WOULD BE REQUIRED FROM OUR SIDE. HOWEVER, WE HAVE RECENTLY FACED THE SAME ISSUE THIS PAST WEEK, AND THE CAR HAS NOW REACHED MORE THAT 89,000 MILES. ONCE AGAIN, WE HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED BY LUSTINE TOYOTA, WHO THEN INFORMED US THE VEHICLE NEEDS A NEW ENGINE, WHICH IS ABOUT A $8,000.00 EXPENSE. I RECENTLY FILED A COMPLIANT WITH THE TOYOTA COOPERATION, WHO REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE FAULT AND WANTS TO PROVIDE ME WITH $2,000.00 TO REPLACE FAMILY'S CAR. MY FAMILY AND I WERE NOT EXPECTING THIS EXHAUSTIVE EXPENSE AND A $2,000.00 CREDIT IS NOT ENOUGH TO PURCHASE ANOTHER VEHICLE. THIS IS A VERY FRUSTRATING EXPERIENCE FOR MYSELF AND MY FAMILY. I HAVE CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 5, WHICH ARE ALSO TRAUMATIZED AND AFRAID OF THE CAR'S CONDITION TO OPERATE SAFELY (MY CHILDREN WERE IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIGOROUSLY). I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE THE COOPERATION FROM THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION (NHTSA) INVESTIGATING THIS MATTER FURTHER AND EXPLAIN WHY MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING SO MANY ISSUES AND PROBLEMS. I AM APPALLED BY TOYOTA'S COOPERATION AND I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND ANYONE TO PURCHASE OR CONSIDER LEASING VEHICLES FROM TOYOTA. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER AND SERVICE EXPERIENCE.

I PURCHASED A TOYOTA COROLLA IN 2010 AND IT APPARENTLY HAD A POTENTIAL CAM GEAR ISSUE. THEY HAD PUT OUT A TSB ALERT ON THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER THEY NEVER DISCLOSED TO ME THAT THIS ISSUE COULD ACCUR. I'VE TAKEN IT IN TO THEIR DEALERSHIP AND THE COST OF REPAIR IS $1150. IF THEY WOULD HAVE TOLD ME AT THE TIME OF THE PURCHASE THAT THE CAM GEAR COULD HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE I WOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASED IT. THEY FAILED TO DISCLOSE TO ME ANY POTENTIAL ISSUES AT THE TIME OF SALE. THIS PRACTICE IS FRAUDULENT AND HIGHLY UNETHICAL. I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE RESOLVED WITH ME AND IT BE CORRECTED FOR FUTURE PURSCHASES OF OTHERS.

THE CAR WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE. IT WAS RUNNING IN PARK WITH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON. MY WIFE PUT HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND RELEASED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. AT THE SAME TIME SHE RELEASED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE THE ENGINE REVVED UP DRAMATICALLY. THE RPM'S INCREASED AS IF SHE HAD THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. IT KEPT THAT UP UNTIL SHE SHUT OFF THE ENGINE.

I WAS STARTING TO BACK OUT OF A DIAGONAL PARKING SPACE AND SUDDENLY THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED AND BACKED ACROSS TWO LANES OF DOWNTOWN BUSINESS TRAFFIC COLLIDING WITH A VEHICLE PARKED DIAGONALLY ACROSS THE STREET. WHEN MY VEHICLE STARTED ACCELERATING I STOMPED ON MY BRAKE BUT THE CAR DID NOT STOP UNTIL IT HIT THE OTHER VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN INCIDENT OF "UNINTENDED LOW-SPEED SURGING" AS REPORTED ON THE INTERNET AND UNDER NHTSA ACTION NUMBER DP14003.

ENGINE
SINCE A RECALL CORRECTION FOR THE SMART STOP TECHNOLOGY, THE CAR WILL ACT LIKE IT WANTS TO DIE WHEN STOPPED AND WILL HESITATE BEFORE ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. IT ACTS LIKE IT WANTS TO QUIT RUNNING IF IDLING TO WARM UP AND GAS MILEAGE IS WORSE THAN BEFORE.

ENGINE
AFTER DEALER DID SMARTSTOP TECHNOLOGY UP DATE, OVER A PERIOD OF A FEW MONTHS THE ENGINE PERFORMANCE HAS DROPPED OFF, AS HAS THE GAS MILEAGE BY ABOUT 5MPG WITH NO CHANGE IN DRIVING HABITS. TALKED TO DEALER ON 12/11/2014 AND WAS INFORMED THE CAR HAS TO RELEARN THESE FUNCTIONS. ASKED HOW LONG THIS WOULD TAKE AND WAS TOLD A FEW MONTHS WHICH I FIND UNACCEPTABLE. MILEAGE ON CAR NOW IS ABOUT 28000, TO ME THAT IS MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME TO RELEARN ALL FUNCTIONS.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I TOOK MY 2010 TOYOTA COROLLA S IN FOR SERVICE ON 9/26/14 AT VICTORY TOYOTA OF CANTON, MI 48188 FOR A REGULAR SERVICE. ALL SERVICE HAS BEEN COMPLETED AT VICTORY TOYOTA OF CANTON, MI 48188 SINCE I PURCHASE THE BRAND NEW VEHICLE FROM THEM. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT MY CAR HAD A TIMING COVER LEAK THAT WAS TO COST ME APPROXIMATELY $1,300.00 TO FIX AND THAT IF I CONTINUED TO DRIVE IT THE LEAK WOULD GET WORSE. I AM OUT OF MY TWO YEAR WARRANTY TIME PERIOD. THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME THAT MY CAR WAS THE 6TH THEY'D SEEN IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS WITH THE SAME ISSUE AND ONE OF THEM WAS EVEN AS LOW AS $18,000 MILES. HE STATED THAT AT SOME POINT THERE WOULD PROBABLY BE A RECALL. I CALLED TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS AND OPENED CASE NUMBER [XXX] AND WAIT TO HEAR WHAT THEIR SOLUTION IS. I ADVISED THAT ANYTHING LESS THAN FULL REPAIR BY TOYOTA AT NO CHARGE TO ME WOULD BE UNACCEPTABLE. SUCH AN ISSUE SHOULD NOT POTENTIALLY HAPPEN IN A VEHICLE UNTIL 100,000 TO 110, 000 MILES. THE FACT THAT THE SERVICE REP SAID THAT MY CAR WAS THE 6TH THEY'D SEEN IN THE LAT TWO WEEKS IS A SERIOUS RED FLAG.

UPON PURCHASING THIS CAR FROM CARMAX ON 02/2012 THERE HAD BEEN CONSTANT TRANSMISSION ISSUES THAT WERE NOT BEING RESOLVED FROM THE DEALERSHIP. I HAD GONE IN AND TRIED HAVING MY TRANSMISSION LOOKED AT THREE TIMES A THE CARMAX DEALERSHIP ALL OF WHICH TOLD ME THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR. ON 07/26/2014 MY 2010 TOYOTA'S TRANSMISSION FAILED AND NOW NEEDS A NEW ONE. THIS OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE IS RIDICULOUS FOR A CAR THAT WAS BUILT IN 2010 AND FOR MYSELF OWNING IT FOR TWO YEARS. BOTH THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND CARMAX DEALERSHIP ARE NOT WILLING HELP ASSIST THE PROBLEM. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE A TOYOTA CAR AGAIN. UPDATED 4/24/2015
