Transmission. My car started making loud noises and eventually got to this point where it is not shifting gears. I would put it into drive, press the gas, and it would accelerate and abruptly stop on me. I've had it for less than 10 years and I bought it brand new. Its completely un-drivable.

Within the last 12 months, rodents have crawled into the engine chewing the wires due to being made o soybean. The first repair was $3000 and the second repair was $1700 I have 6 kids and can’t afford to keep repairing a car that was made with soybean and thus attracts rodents. Why is toyota allowed to put products on the vehicle which are rodent attracted and cost consumers so much to fix.

I have a blue/white 2018 C-HR made in Japan. I do regular maintenance on my car monthly with oil changes every 3k miles. I had this car for 3 years only. I bought it from a toyota dealership with only 25k miles with one owner. At 35k miles it was whining and shaking and I took it to toyota to be serviced they kept it for a day and they found nothing wrong. I thought nothing of it but since then my car had this low shake/rattle to it. I've changed sparks and coils thinking it was that. Finally, today at only 49,900 miles with no signs previously this cars transmission blows not allowing me to reverse or switch gears on me and the head gasket blew allowing water to mix with the oil basically totaling my car.

Mi guagua tiene problemas con la transmisión. El fallo se manifiesta con un sonido extraño y fuerte que aparece al conducir. La transmisión defectuosa sigue instalada y está disponible para inspección si se solicita. Esta situación pone en riesgo mi seguridad y la de otros, ya que el daño podría empeorar y dejarme sin control del vehículo o inmovilizarlo por completo. Se ha evaluado la guagua y las indicaciones son problemas en la transmisión, los síntomas son constantes y fáciles de reproducir. No hubo luces de advertencia ni mensajes antes de que apareciera el fallo; el único síntoma previo fue un ligero ruido que con el tiempo se volvió más fuerte. La causa exacta es desconocida, pero sospecho que puede ser problemas en la transmisión.

The electric parking brake system on my vehicle has malfunctioned and is stuck in the engaged position, preventing my rear brake pads and rotors from being changed. The component is still in my possession and available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: This issue directly impacts vehicle safety, as I am unable to service or replace the rear brakes, which are a critical safety component. Additionally, the malfunction may cause the brake to engage or fail to disengage unexpectedly, creating a risk while driving or parking. Confirmed by a Professional: Yes, the problem has been confirmed by an independent service center, which attempted to service the brakes but could not proceed due to the failure of the electric parking brake actuator/module. Inspection by Authorities or Manufacturer: As of now, the vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance, but I am seeking further diagnostic help from a dealer. Warning Signs Prior to Failure: Yes, prior to the failure, I noticed warning messages on the dashboard related to the parking brake system, including a “Parking Brake Malfunction” alert.
