    Toyota corolla le 2010 did not respond to brakes properly for 100 feet when slowing from 10 mph at intersection. Road was slightly damp but not frozen or slippery. Abs & vsc lights went on brakes ground so loudly as i applied more pressure, it sounded as though they'd break off. 2 toyota service depts have dismissed my concerns saying the roads must have been worse than i thought.

    Our 2010 corolla had a sudden acceleration problem while driving on the highway. The car was put on cruise control and shortly there after, suddenly accelerated to a frightening speed. The brake thankfully worked. We haven't used cruise control since. This was terrifying. The date is an approximation. We reported it to our dealer and they just dismissed it. *tr

    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…

It's like the brakes lock up and the steering gets like a mac truck. This also happens when i go over a bump and/or pothole. It most recently even happened when i was driving down the highway and there was a…
