On two incidents cruise control activated on its own, consumer applied brakes, but it would not override. Also, attempted to shift gears, but it did not work. Consumer could hear motor , it sounded as though it was fighting itself . Vehicle finally stopped when consumer turned off the vehicle. Dealer thought on the first incident that it was driver's error, and could not find any defect.
1999 Toyota Corolla acceleration complaints
Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 13 of 13, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While driving 10 MPH and making a turn, the vehicle suddenly accelerated up 25-30 MPH and hit a tree. Upon frontal impact, driver's and passenger's airbags did not deploy which did not protect the occupant. Prevouisly had electrical problemswhich caused the door locks/ windows and the radio to become inoperative. Please provide further information and VIN#.
My car is automatic. Sometimes when I am driving it "revs" really high like over 4. And thats only when I am going 30mph. Even if I put overdrive on it still doesnt work. Also my low gas light indicator fades in and out. Its doesnt come on until the car is past the "e" . And the last problem is my locks. When I am driving I lock my doors. And then when I turn off my car, take my keys out, it wont let my unlock my door. I have automatic doors and it shouldnt be doing this. One last comment is that these problems do not happen on all the time. But at least once a week. I have brought it in to the toyota dealer many times and they say there is nothing wrong. I know there is. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
