"takata recall" case # 1607202446 I have been given a loaner vehicle since September or October of last year through wolfchase Toyota in germantown tn. Even though I live in southaven, Ms. It will soon be a year that my personal vehicle will be sitting with no usage. The damages to my vehicle's gas tank, fuel pump, battery, paint, tires, fluids, rust, oil, brakes, rotors, plugs, and maybe more could occur while sitting so long. There are no other solution being given other than a loaner vehicle that has to be renewed every 30 days, about 45 miles away from my home. However, my other concern is that once my personal vehicle is fixed the repercussions from it sitting for so long will cause for me to have even more safety problems that will not be warrantied. One solution that could be offered would be to maybe first provide an extended warranty on the parts that are being affected, because of the damages caused while the vehicles are sitting. Another solution could be to provide a certified inspection on each vehicle before being released back to the customer. Or the last suggestion is to maybe provide the customer with a set amount to go towards a new vehicle so they won't have to deal with the stress of the loaner. I fear that one safety issue will be taken care of only to be replaced by many more. My family is very valuable to me, and I financially cannot afford to buy a new vehicle or to even replace all the parts that can be damaged to my vehicle for sitting for such a long period of time. Please let me know what can be done.

I drive quite a bit and normally know my vehicles pretty good. I have recently obtained this 2011 Toyota Corolla S and it is in great condition overall. I made a trip 2 days after getting the vehicle and immediately noticed a hesitation between 55-65 mph. The first time it was approximately 11am in the morning at 78F. Driving on a flat well maintained black top road the vehicle does in fact have a constant hesitation that drops approximately 1000-2000 rpms with a noticeable feel in the vehicle. Immediately (3-4 sec) after the hesitation the vehicle recovers back to the original RPM. As long as staying in this speed range (55-65 mph) the vehicle has the hesitation repeatedly. The second issue that I have noticed on the same vehicle is the actual deceleration when removing my foot from accelerator. When traveling on the same road and time as stated above the vehicle seems to really coast right along or so it seems. When saying this, I removed my foot from accelerator and the vehicle rolls right along as if I am still pushing the accelerator at which time I must apply the brake more significantly than letting it just coast. I would like to know how this is effecting my gas mileage, is it going to cause undue strain on the drivetrain, is this going to be a problematic issue that Toyota is going to continue to ignore?
