Example complaints
Brakes: “When I coming to a slow down or stop on the city street or the highway, I felt the brake pedal loosen up and the car started to roll forward. The car came to stop after I pushed very hard on the pedal 2 to 3 times. This happens most time.”
NHTSA complaint #10967838, filed 2017-03, 60,000 milesOther or unknown: “I put a suitcase in the trunk on its side. It was touching the inside top of the trunk. In removing the suitcase the spring mechanism , that holds the trunk open, was dislodged. This caused the trunk lid to fall heavily on me.”
NHTSA complaint #10969775, filed 2017-03, 60,000 milesElectrical system: “We have had all four door lock actuators replaced... Before 40,000 miles!!! And all within six months of each other...ugh!!! But at least they were under warranty, thank god, because if they weren't, it would have been $1,700. I know this is a very common problem with Toyota products, I guess they just have very weak door lock motors. This is the order they went out in: drivers, rear passenger, front passenger, and rear driver. Before they actually went out, they would intermittently not work. …”

The hybrid car was running on its electric motor when my wife began to step on the brake to slow the car to a stop. While braking, the car turned on the gas engine and accelerated with enough speed to leave leave rubber tire marks on the parking surface. The car jumped the parking barrier and damaged the lower portion of the right-front bumper. …”
