Several times, I have experienced "brake failure" along with a grinding noise. Braking system must be the problem. However, the dealership says everything is working properly. I have taken it to the dealership 2 times since I purchased the new car. The first incident was in October 2016 - with only 1784 miles. On May 1, 2017; I applied my brakes upon approaching a "stop sign". unfortunately, the pedal went to the floor( I could feel the grinding in the brake pedal)and there was a delay in my car coming to a complete stop. I took the car to the dealership, again. According to the service department, there is nothing wrong with the braking system. I do not have any warning when the brakes fail to work. It doesn't seem to matter if I am traveling at a slow or higher rate of speed. Please investigate this problem. I am very concerned and the Toyota company doesn't seem to be concerned about this issue.

Upon entering my carport, while applying the brakes, the car suddenly lurched forward several feet, nearly colliding with a concrete wall.my concern is: When will this occur in street traffic and cause a fatality?

I was driving out of a parking lot at 10-15mph. A car was waiting to turn at a stop sign 200 feet ahead. The road had mild snow and ice and was on a 20 degree slope, so I stepped gently on the brake. There was no response from the car. I stepped off the brake and stepped down a little harder. There was mild response. I continued pushing on the brake, and was able to push all the way down to the floor. The car did not stop. 50 feet before collision, I attempted turning the wheel to get out of the way, but the car only shifted 3 feet before I collided with the front car. 50 minutes after the incident, I was driving the same car home at 25mph. The city street was flat and straight, and there was mild snow and ice. A car was turning right at an intersection 250 ft ahead. I was worried this time, and pressed on the brake earlier at moderate pressure (pedal half down). In the past, that type of pressure could decrease the car from 35 to 10mph in 100ft. This time, the car only decreased from 25 to 15mph in 245ft. I was lucky the driver ahead turned, because it would have been a second collision in one day.

Brake pedal feels spongy or soft all the time. Have had vehicle to dealer 3 times for stuck fuel door (won't open). Every time nothing found wrong. Tech lubed and tried adjusting fuel door to no avail. Stuck fuel door doesn't happen all the time though. This is a safety issue especially for women who are trying to fuel up when on empty. Fuel door sticks while stationary. Brakes feel spongy when applying brakes while in motion or sitting still. Dealer looked at brakes and said they are fine. Have read several complaints on these Corolla's having brake failure! what's next"?" a crash in the making!!! will not buy toyo again.

This is a report of brake failure that caused a vehicle collision with injuries. On October 29, 2016, I rented a 2016 Toyota Corolla from a betterway rent-acar, Inc. D/ba budget rent a car of atlanta, at 6509 roswell rd, atlanta, ga 30328. The Toyota had 21,619 miles at the time of the rental. At approximately 12:30pm I was driving southeast on jimmy carter blvd in norcross Georgia. The weather was clear and sunny and the road was dry. Upon departing a traffic light, I accelerated to approximately 20 mph in moderate traffic towards vehicles waiting at the intersection of jimmy carter blvd and rockbridge school road one block away. I began applying the brakes long before reaching the vehicles waiting at the next intersection, however the car's brake action was minimal. As I completely depressed the brake pedal, I heard a clicking sound similar to the engagement of an anti-lock braking system (ABS), however there was no significant deceleration. When I fully depressed the brake pedal, I did not hear an increase in engine RPM, the automatic transmission did not downshift, and the vehicle did not accelerate. As a result of the Toyota's brake failure, I impacted a stationary vehicle at the intersection of jimmy carter blvd and rockbridge school road. The Toyota's airbags did not deploy. There were no skidmarks at the scene of the accident. I suffered injuries as well as multiple occupants in the other vehicle.

On June 24th 2016 I purchased a 2016 Toyota Corolla S. I had 3 minor brake fialures with grinding sounds. I called the dealership on those 3 occasions.the 4th brake failure was a lot worse and I ended up applying the E brake and slide into county line dividing pasco & hernando county Florida. Enough was enough I called the dealership and said " I need to bring my car in asap because now I have had four brake failures and this one could have killed me if anyone had been coming. This was the 21st of July, I had brought the car in for inspection of my brakes. All they did was take it for a test drive, brought it back and said everything was normal. On September tenth 2016 I got into the right hand turn lane, when I applied the brakes nothing had happened. I continued to apply more and more pressure and still no brakes. I was able to veer enough to the right so I didn't impact the driver side door however the lady behind that car was not as lucky and I impacted her front left pretty much head on. I have called over and over I have sent pictures of my car and the road where there was not even 1 skid mark. I have 9 bulging disc 4 herniated discs. I am literally broke from car rentals dr's appointments and medication that has been very expensive. Every time I call I am instructed I will receive a call from their claims/legal department within 30 business days from when they retrieved the data from the car that almost killed me and a poor woman who was taken away in an ambulance. I looked through the data and I am no engineer and I can even see where the brakes failed. To everyone who reads this if you see S newer Toyota becareful.
