2005 Toyota Corolla Other or unknown Problems

“Symptoms happened several times when I was driving on the highway. When I pushed the gas at approx. 50 MPH, the car is not gaining speed, instead, the car was losing losing power. Earlier this week, my car stutter after the input of gasoline. My check engine light came on yesterday and I brought it to a local parts store for a code read. The code is p0741, solenoid circuit.”

“I own a 2005 Toyota Corolla. This week I noticed that my air conditioner was blowing hot air. When I had it looked at by a mechanic, I was told that debris got into the condenser and damaged it, requiring a repair. I researched the problem and discovered that Toyota issued technical service bulletin ac002-06 lower grille mesh protection cover, which acknowledges that the failure to include a protection cover near the mesh grille has caused debris to get into the air conditioner condenser, and thereby damaging it. …”

“Car stalled in the middle of hwy in 2009. No warning lights came on. After diagnoses mechanic provided me a technical bulletin that I have a bad ECM. Took to Toyota and Toyota denied the claim and made me replace a fuel pump instead. Once the fuel pump was replaced the cars still wouldn't run. Another diagnostic indicated it was the ECM, which was covered under warranty. Nothing was wrong with the fuel pump. Toyota did not want to recognize a long standing problem with ecms. 3 mechanics indicated it was the ECM.”

“My Corolla stalled in a flooded street that was visibly passable for other vehicles, both small and large. As a result of the exposure to the water, the car experienced a major engine failure. During a discussion with a representative at the dealership, I learned that the air-in-take system is located relatively low to the ground on the bumper. This seems to be a design flaw which could lead to the car failing to perform during relatively minor flooding conditions.”

“I have a 2005 Corolla s. It had a really bad vibration in the dash and could not be detected. The dealer removed the dash numerous times over a 7 week period. The vibration was finally located in the pillar(it was the drain pipe for the sunroof). The dash now has a vibration that at 70 MPH sounds like a loud whistle- very annoying. The dealer will not work on it because the original 36,000 mile warranty is past. I believe that the roseburg oregon dealer should stand behind the fact that they removed the dash enough to cause this vibration.”
