    The car shuts down and stops without warning. I have taken it to toyota 2 x this month and still not fixed. It was just towed again today. This seems to happen once the car is driven for awhile and gets warmed up. When it sits for awhile it will start again.

    There was a recall on toyota's engine control modules. I took my car in and had it replaced in 2012 due to a failed emissions inspection. In 2016, im having the same issue again and toyota refuses to do anything about it.

    Check engine light came while driving to work in 2005 corolla. Took car to mechanic who diagnosed the charcoal canister needed to be replaced. Also occurred with a 20008 toyota matrix (corolla cousin), that had only 70,000 miles on it. Seems to me this is a manufacturing defect with toyota corollas and possibly others.

    While driving on 55 south freeway exit from 91 west to my work, my car suddenly stopped responding. It started jerking and suddenly stopped the engine. Luckily traffic wasn't that fast otherwise it could have created a big pile up behind me. I pulled over to the right shoulder and stopped. I tried about 3-4 times to start, but it did not crank at all. So i called the tow truck and towed to nearby firestone in…
