Page 2 of 2: complaints 11 to 14 of 14, newest first, as owners wrote them.
On the morning of oct. 27, my wife drove the car to mid town, manhatton. She drove the car from a car park at 43 street. Suddenly she heard a slight sound and the car lost gear and slided to the middle of the street and dead off. She pressed the gas pedal, no reaction. She used bra and steering suddenly stopped working. That is a busy street, a car almost hit her. She put the car back to parking and restarted the car and drove away. She thought that happened because she forgot to start. ( she forgot she drove 10 feet from the car park). That was a busy day, she forgot telling me. On the afternoon of the same day. I drove the car to boston to see an customer. On the way back, I found there was a strange sound whenever I pressed the gas pedal it sounds like an old shabby car driven over 10 years. I stopped on the shouder and checked the tires and I could not found anything. I drove back to the high way I-91 south again, suddenly, I heard and strange sound, the car lost gear again, it became slowly and slowly. I pressed the gas peddle hardly and that was no use. I pressed the emmergency lights and change to the slow lane. A truck behind me reached me fast. My car forced his truck passed me over the shoulder because there happened to be a car in the middle lane. I was shocked to death. Without the truck driver's alert and skillful changing lane, I would definately a dead man. I stopped on the shoulder and tried all dears, none of them was working. I restarted the engineand no use. I called the aaa tow truck and I was towed back to fort lee new jersey at 2:30 in the morning. Before this incidence, the left rear strut was leaking, they changed the left rear shock and we did a tune up and rotate and balance 10/01/2000. Both me and my wife risked our lives for toyota's deffects cars. I would not want to risk my family lives to this car again. I strongly require toyota recalls this car. I would rather buy an american car. If they do not allow us to return, change a new car.
Severe left pull into oncoming traffic. Releasing the steering wheel for 1.5 seconds is enough for the vehicle to dart into the oncoming lanes of traffic. Toyota attempted repair 4 times and the vehicle has had three completely new sets of tires. Vehicle still pulls left. This vehicle is hazardous to occupants and other vehicles on the road.
While traveling steering wheel pulls to left at all times. Dealer has been contacted. Please provide further information. *ak the consumer requested to repurchase based on lemon law of the state, but was denied by the manufacturer stating that the vehicle was not defective based on expert inspection.
