The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
On two occasions, a stationary vehicle was found to be leaking gasoline from a fuel line. Dates were approximately July, 2019 and may, 2020. The fuel line had apparent rodent (possible squirrel) bite marks. The car was driveable despite the leaking fuel line, but if the driver did not happen to notice the fuel spill under the car (photo attached), there could easily have been a fire other other issue during normal operations of the car. Repairs cost over $350 for each instance.

Since purchased, I have experienced multiple issues with the check engine light comming on only to be told that the "gas cap wasnt on all the way". yestersay, my brake, ABS and trac lights came on while driving and the only time they cleared was after a sudden grid noise in transmission. Following this the check engine light came on and Toyota indicated the charcoal canister for the evap system has failed. My vehicle was purchased new and from a dealership. I saw that a number of models were recalled in 2016 for a charcoal canister fail and I believe this vehicle either wasnt services properly or this model shouldve beeb included in the recall.

Computer is sending false codes. Car won't accelerate from a stop then eventually starts moving very slowly. Unhooking the battery then hooking it back up does a hard reset on the computer which makes the car work properly for a day or so then it does it again. Was told by mechanic the computer doesn't know what gear the car is in.

My daughter was attempting to park in her college parking lot at fgcu. She said, thinks the brake didn't work when she applied it. Car hit concrete wall to stop. Aaa tow truck driver came and said brakes went to floor and he had to use E-brake to put on truck. He states when he got back to garage brakes worked. I told Toyota. They checked brakes out and said everything was working fine. I asked them to look at black box. They sent me results. I had my insurance co. Look at them along with Toyota service adviser. Both said data shows gas applied before brake. I looked under car complaints. Other people had same problem. Some had automatic acceleration. I did not tell them to check that out because of statement from tow truck guy. She said it happened so fast she doesn't remember. The tin whiskering was a problem for Toyota in the past. I believe that they have not fixed the problem. Can the data show if gas applied by driver or automatically came on? I have spoken to attorneys and no one seems to want to take this case. My daughter has back pain and other issues. As a parent I'm not sure what to do. Car has been repaired. It is a lease. ( nine months left to pay.) I would like to get her out of this car and get a new one. Any suggestions? thank you mike.
