Toyota Yaris H/b 2009 Steering

Toyota Yaris H/b 2009 Steering Review #10312844

TOYOTA YARIS H/B 2009 car safety problem was reported on Dec 28, 2008.TOYOTA YARIS H/B 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STEERING . when i drive at 60mph and higher my 2009 5 door liftback yaris with electronically assisted steering that i bought new, it has a dangerous tendency to wander. if i look away for a second, the car wanders and has often done so into other lanes. this has happened about 10 times in the year that i have owned it. i have had to adjust my driving habits to reduce the amount of times that this happens otherwise it would have happened many more times. the habits that i practice to avoid this are to pay constant attention to the road ahead of me so i don't wander out of my lane. much more attention is needed with this car than any other of the 8 passenger cars i have owned and driven. it is very taxing on my energy level on long drives which i consider to be 3 hrs or more. i am very car savvy and i think this phenomenon is due to the angle of caster on the front suspension. unfortunately there is no adjustment for caster on my yaris otherwise i would try that. it does not track as straight as my previous cars of which range from heavy to light weight, from old to new, and from being equipped with power steering to no power steering. my yaris has electronic assisted steering. i have read that the new corolla has electronic steering and those driver's complaints reflect mine. i have not complained about this earlier because i thought it was due to the combination of light weight with small size and relatively tall height. after hearing of the corolla driver's complaints and the coincidence of it being equipped with power steering, i think there may be a pattern. my theory is that the caster is set to make steering easy on the electric power steering for the reason of saving weight and money in the materials it would take to make a more robust power steering system such as bigger electric motor, bigger wires, bigger battery, bigger alternator, etc. *tr.Mileage was 300 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTDKT903395. Toyota Yaris H/b 2009 problem was reported in NIPOMO, CA. Vehicle was not using ANTI-LOCK BRAKES. Vehicle was not using Cruise Control.

TOYOTA YARIS H/B 2009 car safety problem was reported on Feb 23, 2011.TOYOTA YARIS H/B 2009, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . i was driving my 2009 toyota yaris (ca. 30k miles) home from work under normal road conditions. as i approached a red light, i was alarmed to find that the brakes were compromised and the braking power was reduced. i had to swerve onto the shoulder to avoid hitting the back end of the car in front of me. at this point, i was only 2 miles from home and decided to proceed carefully. as i was turning off a main road and into my neighborhood, the brakes completely failed, and i was not able to complete the turn. the car careened off the road, over the curb, up a small embankment, and smashed head-on into a stone wall. the airbag deployed, and the front end sustained considerable damage. the car will most likely be totaled. thankfully, i was not injured, but i shudder to think at what the outcome could have been under different circumstances. the car had no known mechanical problems or accidents prior to this event, was serviced regularly, and driven responsibly. i consider this to be a serious problem that needs to be resolved. *tr.Vehicle was involved in a crash.
