Description of the problem | I am filing this report to have documentation for my records. It is on my 2010 corolla now having complete brake failure issues. It started on feb. 21,2010. The brakes started to go completely to the floor. On february 24, the brakes went completely to the floor at a 5 way intersection, and i went through a stop light. I could not stop the car. That same day i went through a stop sign and had to jam on my emergency brake, so i didn't go onto a major traveled route in vermont. This is the same problem i reported to the nhtsa on 12/12/09. The odi number is 10295431. I would like to know what was done with that complaint? Did it ever get forwarded to mr. Toyodo himself, congress (for the hearings?). I had complete brake failure issues for over 14 months with my 2009 corolla. What did you do with that information? The only recall i saw was for the prius? What a joke! Now my 2010 corolla has complete brake failure. Again toyota gets away with covering up their mistakes, and your agency does nothing. The same as covering up the new pedal recall not correcting the issue of acceleration (my odi number for this is 10314851). I have all my records and am showing them to the media (national & local). I am stating below the incident date for my current car brake failure issues is february 21st. I am however stating injuries and reported to the police. I had an acceleration incident on january 18, 2010 with my 2009 corolla . During the incident i had complete brake failure and was injured. I did report it to the police. |
