Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“My air bag light and my check engine light came on and would not go out. A balise Toyota technician, west springfield, ma, diagnosed the problem as a faulty spiral coil assemby. Balise's assistant service manager, karl subklew, stated this was a safety issue. I contacted/notified Toyota; Toyota has recalled other Toyota makes and models for this safety issue, but refused to apply the recall to my 2005 Toyota Corolla Matrix. They told me to notify my attorney general. The cost was significant to me to have the spiral coil replaced on 7/18/14. …”
