“When I stopped at a stop sign, it stalled and has done so on several more occasions since. I also had a problem on the freeway when I was going about 65 MPH and it pulled back like it was going to stop but then finally went back up to speed. I just bought the car on 8/31/11 from a car dealer. I went on the Toyota owners website to register the next day and noticed that the previous owner had a stalling problem as well and had it looked at and nothing was found.”

“I bought this car used with 18,000 miles on it in july of 2010. And I have all service done at a Toyota dealer.

At 37,966 miles , replaced the front brakes again(12/21/12). Pads lasted 11,991 miles! At 55,662 miles, replaced the front brakes, machined rotors again(2/20/2014). Pads lasted 17,696 miles! Since I do mainly highway driving, I feel that there is a defect associated with the front brake abnormal wear. …”

“Well, there was a very loud rattle noise when starting engine (cold engine) I took car to puente hills, ca Toyota dealership as they told me it was a camshaft gear assembly known issue in the toyotas 2009. They charged me about $179.00 for labor as the car was still under warranty. The problem continued and goes away once in a while, but continues after all. I just took car back to same dealer, as they told me that it will cost about $872.15 to fix problem. I would like to know if there's a recall or any other legal remedies I could take in this matter.”

There were only slight injuries. Though the wheels were pointed straight ahead, the car veered left as the car uncontrollably sped up. My son-in-law states that his foot was not on the pedal. …”
