Toyota Corolla Vehicle Speed Control Safety Report | Oct 12, 2011
Reported on Oct 12, 2011
| JUST LEASED A 2011 TOYOTA COROLLA. WHEN AT A STEADY CRUISING SPEED, ANYWHERE ABOVE 35, THERE IS A SCARY INTERMITTENT DRAGGING OR RESISTANCE, AND THEN SURGE IN SPEED, ALONG WITH CRAZY FLUCTUATION IN RPMS, THAT IS UNCONTROLLABLE. IN ADDITION, WHEN LETTING UP ON THE ACCELERATOR TO PREPARE TO STOP, THE CAR LOCKS IN ON THE CURRENT SPEED, EVEN AT HIGH SPEED AND GOING UPHILL, AND DOES NOT SLOW UNTIL THE BRAKE IS FIRMLY APPLIED. IT FEELS LIKE THE CAR IS BEING CONTROLLED BY A MALFUNCTIONING CRUISE CONTROL, EXCEPT THE CRUISE CONTROL IS TURNED OFF. I A¿¿M SCARED TO DRIVE THIS CAR! *TR | |
