Description of the problem	I own a 2006 toyota corolla. On 01-29-2010, i was driving my toyota down the road. Suddenly, without warning, the engine stalled. Luckily, i was not on the freeway or in heavy traffic and was able to safely pull to the side of the road. I ended up having my car towed to toyota of el cajon where the problem was identified as a defective ecm (engine control module). They replaced the ecm for $841. 00 which fixed the problem. An ecm failing on a new car after 3 1/2 years is very unusual (they are engineered to last the life of the car). I went on line and was stunned to find that ecm failures were a known problem and frequently failed on 2006 and some earlier toyota corollas. Toyota even changed/re-engineered the ecms after 2006 models. I would like to know how many of these ecms have failed nation wide and why no recall has been done to fix this problem. I've tried to get ahold of toyota corporate but i can't get through to a person and they have not answered my e-mail back (going on two weeks since i sent it to them).

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
