On May 3rd 2014 I was on my way to work I looked down and ran off the road I was trying to slowly get back on the road. I didn't stomp the brake because I was afraid I would flip my car. I forgot I had my cruise control on. My car was front wheel drive and as the tires grabbed it through me in to the guard rail on the opposite side of the road. My car went into a spin and finally stopped. My seat belt grabbed and knocked the breath out of me. My seat belt did not come out. I am still recovering. The adjuster said it was totaled.

Horn sounded squeaky, then inoperative. Airbag light went on. Cruise no longer worked. Toyota diagnosed the spiral cable A/K/a clock needed replacement. Other vehicles, including Toyota, had recalls on this. It should not have malfunctioned at this age of the car, only 108,000 miles. Should have been a recall, paid by Toyota. It cost me nearly $500 to get it fixed. Maybe the cable was damaged when the steering lock bar was fixed, on a previous recall (years prior)."?"

3/30/11 coming out of a right hand turn, it looked like the steering locked into a position which caused the driver to lose the ability to steer. The car slid and the driver's side door was crushed into a tree. The driver side airbag did not work. The driver was injured and was later pronounced dead at the hospital from internal injuries. The car has been preserved at a storage facility in Texas since shortly after the accident. It is available for inspection. Not sure whether the gas pedal stuck or not. I was told that there was a black box in these cars which could possibly lead to answers. The steering on the vehicle was recalled and the vehicle was brought to the Toyota dealership for the repair in January 2011. I have copies of the repair bill. Please see that no others are hurt.
