2010 Toyota Corolla electrical complaints
Page 2 of 4: complaints 11 to 40 of 75, newest first, as owners wrote them.
My car suddenly turn on most of the dash lights: brake,ABS, power steering, and the speedometer , temperature gauge, revolution gauge and air conditioner stop working. The vehicle was stationary when all tis problems stated start to happen
When I am driving my 2010 toyota corolla s on the highway at speeds of over 50 MPH it does not stay straight. It requires alot of strength to keep it straight. It feels like the car is being moved to the right or left by winds. Feels very unsafe to drive. The steering wheel is so stiff to turn sometimes. I have done the wheel alignment several times and put on new tires recently but the problem still remains. Very unsafe to drive and I get very tired after driving at highway speeds just maintaining in my own lane. The dealer's are not much helpful at all with this. I've read online alot of people having problems with this make and model with the steering. There needs to be an investigation on this soon because it's very dangerous to drive.
Since obtaining the vehicle in 2009 brand new, upon breaking gradually, it surges forward slightly when it feels like it should slow down. I have brought this issue up to my local toyota dealership who denied any such inconsistencies. Also, there have been electrical issues for the past few years when turning on the radio; after pushing any button at any time, it will randomly change the display to nonsense characters or become blank.
Takata recall. I have a recall on 2010 toyota corolla's airbags
Please note: problem with the engine. Engine light come on a lot, but when I had it checked, they could not find out why it continue to come on.
I was driving my car yesterday and as I went to accelerate the car didn't move so I pushed the gas pedal again and it went real slow. Then the car jerked and began to smoke really bad so I pulled over and open the hood and flames began to shoot out.
Car would start then driving at 10mph the car stalls and the dash lights illuminate the dashboard. Put the car in park and restart with no problem but if somebody was behind me it would've caused an accident. Last week car did the same thing except I the car was in motion towards an intersection from idle and had to quickly put it in park and restart it and move it before I would've been involved in a deadly accident.

Takata recall. Gas pedal becomes stuck with floor mat when car is in motion. We have had to remove floor mat for safety. Removal of floor mat has caused wear and tear on floor board covering.
Nothing yet but these recalls, one for the electric window master switch, well over a year old, and the other for the passenger side airbag, where I'm cautioned to not have passengers in that front seat, which is really inconvenient and means I don't have full use of my own automobile, has been out long enough that a fix is long overdue. Why the delay and why does the government do nothing for consumers who paid for these cars but with some not insignificant defects. I would like my car fixed, both the master switch for the windows and the passenger side airbag that could fail to deploy.
Takata recall for almost eight months my car horn has not been working. I cannot inspect it without the car horn working! No one will touch it! It's like my car has a disease and no one wants to be corrupted or something. I saw on a tv program called fraud squad about how when a airbag is deployed some components in and around the airbag are affected to the point of failure. I've only had the car two years and the most important thing, the inspection/registration sticker cannot be had! I feel very much let down by the dealership I acquired this car from. I got it from fort bend toyota in rosenberg. It's gonna take me many years to pay this car paid off and already I may have to jury rig it and void every warranty ever. My warranty went out, they asked me to re-up it, I didn't, and boom, I'm screwed! Where can I go to get help with this? I am lucky I have not been ticketed yet. Updated 01/25/2017

The driver door caught on fire while I was driving.
Two issues: radio controls fail; usually when outside temps near/above 100f. Touching any control turns off radio, spits out cd. Causes me to focus on radio instead of driving. Dealer no help. Seen the problem listed by others online inc. Youtube video of the radio acting up. 2nd issue: just had to replace water pump, approx. 150,000 miles. Appears there was some sort of recall but I did not receive any notice. Replaced 7/16/16
1. Weather stripping will not stay on driver door 2. Cd player of radio system was throwing out the 6 cd's as driving- replaced stereo. 3. Under 70,000 miles- cv joint went out - replaced. Prior to replacement loud clunking sounds and steering difficult- other owners same issues I am reading. Needs recalled 4. Appx 77.000 miles no warning alternator went out and was extremely hot and smelly-replaced. 5. Appx 78,000 miles between 25-35 MPH transmission keeps slipping. I was driving down a street and once on interstate it hit the other gear hard/clunked- toyota dealer called toyota and they said replace transmission. Currently in the shop. Called toyota and filed a case- they respectively understand my concern, however, they did not seem concerned of the safety hazard of this issue and probability of this issue causing a death. I have friend same issue and I have read about this same issue on the internet. There needs to be a recall. Luckily it did not go out on me driving on the interstate going 70mpg. Scared of the vehicle and distrust competency of toyota. Are they unwilling to admit the transmission problem is a safety issue? Needs recalled or investigated please help the consumer. I am worried about others safety.
The car battery keeps dying on this vehicle even though the battery has been replaced and checked multiple times. The dealer claims a ground cable on the underside is corroded and "fixed" it- but the problem still occurs. My guess is this is a design defect. It's scary to drive a car that might leave you stranded every time you turn it off. This has been ongoing for the past 6 months.

Driver side airbag light on need new ecu for airbag.
When applying the brakes, my car will rev up. Especially when I'm going down hill. Another concern is that my car will make a 2-3 second rattling noise upon starting up. It only makes this noise once in a while and it is coming from the engine. Another issue I'm having is the car's check engine light, track light and vsc off light coming on simultaneously on any rainy day and staying on for several days after it has stopped raining. I avoid driving at fast speeds when its rainy because obviously the car is very unstable. My driver side window wont open or close and very cold days and other days it makes a weird noise. I just bought this car used and it has about 79k miles on it.
Horn failed to honk when needed. It did not work while vehicle was in motion on a highway, it did not work on a city street, it did not work parked in my driveway. The wire became separated and there was a void, the wire cover stayed intact until I removed the connector from the horn. I had to connect a new wire from the existing wire and reconnect to the horn. All is fine now.
There was a sudden acceleration in my toyota corolla 2010 and hit a tree,I was driving 15 miles per hour at that time. When complained to toyota they investigated about 15 days ago but no conclusion was provided from toyota. I was injured but recovered already. Please ask them why they are not providing any conclusion to me. .

I'm not 100% sure if the master switch window is part of the recall but my master switch was smoking and I felt like if I continued driving earlier it felt like my car was on fire. I could've lost control because my switch was literally smoking non stop. I was at the traffic light when it happened, luckily I was on the first line, I accidentally hit the window switch with my elbow and it started to smoke. I wasn't feeling safe so I called my insurance and I asked for a tow truck to bring my car to s nearest toyota dealer, I kept asking toyota dealer if this was part of the recall but they cannot answer me. I don't feel safe driving toyota because of this. I might switch my car with some other brands of I keep getting this kind of incident.

My son received his car today that was shipped to him from maui to portsmouth,va. As he was driving back to base his passenger side mirror fell off. The inside was melted. I have pictures of the mirror. This is a fire hazard. I contacted toyota via email about the incident. This car was purchased new and has only had routine maintenance. There is either a faulty connection or faulty part that caused this. I now worry that the car may catch fire.
