I drove my car to get gas on November 24, 2019. After I got full tank of gas, I cannot start the engine. The engine would make a noice like coughing, and whole car would shake, all the electric (lights, meter, music) would be on, but the engine would go back to 'dead'. on the display screen, it would show the 'battery' warning icon. I immediately tried jumpstart, but I still cannot start my vehicle so it's not simply a batteries problem. (actually, I think the battery itself has no problem.) the dealership was not in service on Sunday, so I have to paid to get my car towed at the night- drop. Before the guy towed my vehicle away, he tried to start my vehicle again and it cannot be start. On Monday morning the dealership examine in the vehicle but they claim they found nothing wrong. All the test come clean and they wanted me to come and take my vehicle. But when the technician was about to get my car, he himself cannot start a vehicle again or it takes a long time for the vehicle to start. So they keep the car three more days to test but today they called me, and still telling me the vehicle has no problem. The car clearly has some problem! and actually this is the second time that it happened. The first time happened when I parked my car at my office buildings parking lot, and at night after work I cannot start the engine. Same problem. That time I wait for two minutes and I can start the car back on again. But the same problem did exist before, and it has a recurring problem. I'm now very worried about my car, I fear that the same problem would happen again, and I don't feel safe driving it.

Purchased vehicle new.in ft myers Florida on the day of 28th febuary. The vehicle displays problem at idle coasting speeds of 5 to 15 miles per hour in parking lots or stop and go traffic. The rotary component in transmission knocks and clicks.also the car clunks midly and will not ease into driving speed without clunking and clicking. Also the car displays the symptom of bad timing, with the timing of the motor being off, causing the motor to drag as if the throttle of car is set too loose or at too low of specified RPM.. and this is here writtin.the exact problem with the drive of my 2019 Toyota corrola hatchback.

The owner's manual shows a location for lifting the vehicle in the front using a floor jack (page 427). This location is not present on my vehicle and this was confirmed by a Toyota dealership. This could lead to someone using another improper location to lift the vehicle which could cause an injury to a person if the vehicle slips off the jack or damage to the vehicle. The missing part is also referenced on page 475 as a location to tow the vehicle by. Again, since this location is missing, someone could tow the vehicle by a spot not design to be towed by. This could also result in injury to a person or damage to the vehicle.
