Toyota Corolla Matrix 2006 Vehicle Speed Control Review #10294080

TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006 car safety problem was reported on Nov 01, 2007.TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL . i own a 2006 toyota matrix. at about 40k i began noticing when i pushed the gas pedal from a stop that it sometimes lagged, other times the pedal seemed very touchy and to take off excessively, causing passengers to notice the sudden acceleration. this occurs spontaneously but at least once every 14 days. it is always from a stop such as at a light or driveway, after the car has been driving even a few feet but it has never occurred on the initial press when the car is first cranked and moved, only after the wheels have moved. as a side note, the computer was replaced at about 77k and this did not correct the issue. i have the oem floor mats with the latch system that holds the mat in place. i have never had the pedal appear to even touch the mat. while i have never had the terrible experience of having the pedal stick and continue to accelerate, i am hoping that this information will help the cause of the issues come to light. there is definitely a problem with the gas pedal and the computer telling the throttle when and how much to open. please do not let this fall solely on the floor mats. there is more to the story! *tr.Mileage was 40000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2T1KR32E26C. Toyota Corolla Matrix 2006 problem was reported in PACE, FL. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006 car safety problem was reported on May 01, 2010.TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . intermittently my 2006 toyota matrix xr suddenly slows down to about 20 miles per hour and would not respond to pressing gas pedal. when this happens i will have to pull up to the side and turn the engine off for couple of minutes and then start. then it would be fine. it has happened on the highway and local roads. it could be dangerous if it happens right in the middle of highway. so far in the span of less than a year it has happened more than five times. we took the car to the dealer. they quoted "p2103: throttle actuator control motor circuit high" and will cost $1085 to fix it. i looked up the web and there were others with the same error code and replaced it but still experience the problem. after some research on the web i found that there was same symptom people experience but different error code that was covered by toyota even when the warranty expired. i was hoping my problem gets covered, too but they insist not to cover it. if this problem is a result of wear and tear, i have no problem with it. but this is clearly a defects in the vehicle that should be fixed regardless of the warranty expired or not. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):2T1KR32E47C.

TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006 car safety problem was reported on Apr 12, 2012.TOYOTA COROLLA MATRIX 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with POWER TRAIN . i was returning home last week on i-40 in tn. i was going up a grade with vehicles all around me when my transmission blew. i instantly lost power and went from 70 to 50 in the blink of an eye. luckily i wasn't hit and was able to get the car off the road. after towing the car home i was disappointed to hear of many similar accounts from other matrix owners. apparently there are faulty bearings to blame for countless transmission failures on cars with alarmingly low mileage. this is something that toyota should reconcile with its customers and more importantly, fix before someone is injured or killed. *js.Mileage was 130000 miles.
