Car driving with no one in front and brake assist went off on own. Also car driving and electrical system in car shut down and lost control of car. Then all dashboard lights came on, was able to regain control and pull in parking lot. Shut car off. Hooked up ODB. No codes. Then started car and ran fine. Had burning electrical smell.

I got new tires and took the car for an alignment. I am constantly having to slightly correct my steering wheel. One to three degrees to the left and right at any speed the entire time I am driving. It was setup for the diagnostic test and the technician came back in less than five minutes. To tell me that there is nothing wrong with my alignment and everything was at factory spec. So I told him to drive it and tell me that there is nothing wrong with my car. He came back looking shocked and said that was weird. Like driving on wet glass. So he started to ask me questions. My answers to the question were. I am the original owner, never been in an accident with the car or hit debris of any kind. Tires are brand new, no check engine or warning lights. Diagnostic scanner to the OBD port came back with no problems. Car had 25,000 miles on it at the time. I've been told it could be any of eight or nine problems or a combination of a few. Electric power steering, traction control, ABS, Tire pressure monitor, steering angle sensor, tie rod, ball joints, suspension. My question is, how does this happen with regular service and no warning detection system on board or service equipment finding anything "?"

With only 500 miles on it I had alignment issue with this brand new car Toyota Yaris 2019. After fix that I still had safety problem that is either related to steering, tier, suspension, beam torsion or anything else that cause my car feeling like drifting or sliding to right or left while driving around 60 or above. Feels like driving on slippery snowy road. I cant have my car controlled even thought by holding the steering very tight. I have passed 2 serious accident already and have a feeling this car with 185 inch tier is only designed for city or for speed below 60 mph and thats how met Toyota safety and expectation!!! very disappointed such a big company is re badging Mazda 2 and sell it under Toyota with safety issue. They need to get recall on these type of car if they think this car doesnt have any issue and the car is totally fine before some big lawsuit is taking place. I concern about my and other vehicle safety while driving and need to report and follow up on this

With only 500 miles on it I had alignment issue with this brand new car Toyota Yaris 2019 which was purchased on Apr 2019. After I took my car to tustin Toyota dealership, they fixed the alignment for the first time I had the same issue I took my car there for the second time they said nothing wrong with it while I had document of alignment failed which im attaching it. I still have safety problem that is either related to steering, tier, suspension, beam torsion or anything else that cause my car feeling like drifting or sliding to right or left while driving around 60mph or above. Feels like driving on slippery snowy road. I cant have my car controlled even though by holding the steering very tight and its a huge road with so many trucks which can be so dangerous. I have passed 2 serious accident already and have a feeling this car with 185 inch tier is only designed for city or for speed below 60and thats how met Toyota safety and expectation as they confirming their safety and not providing any other help!!! very disappointed such a big company is re badging Mazda 2 and sell it under Toyota with safety issue. They need to get recall on these type of car if they think this car doesnt have any issue and the car is totally fine before some big lawsuit is taking place. I concern about my and other vehicle safety while driving and need to report this to take some action
