jerking back when in reverse
I brought my car brand new, it is only a year old and already has to have a new transmission in it! I am very upset because I still make payments to this car and already have problems with it! I can see if it was something little like a gas pedal recall but a whole transmission being replaced? It doesn't make sense to me, why would I want my car now, it's suppose to be new not a new car with a replaced transmission in it. I don't feel safe in the car anymore, what if other problems arise later on since, a transmission went wrong only at 14,000 miles. I don't think it is right, I brought my car brand new and expect it to be cleared from problems for the first 5 years. A transmission is a big deal.

In June 2022 I had the transmission on my 2014 Toyota Corolla LE replaced with a used one (having 80,000 km/.50,000 miles). Repair costed 3700 $ US (5500 $ CAN) tax included and it lasted 9 (nine) months till I started again hearing a loud noise when shifting into "drive" or "reverse". At the same time a significant vibration happens. So I am back to square 1. Paid a ton of money to drive the car for another 9 months. As mentioned in my previous complaint, I have totally lost my faith in Toyota. Please note that this is my 3rd Corolla and previous ones worked with no significant repairs. No more Toyota vehicles for me.
