2004 Toyota Corolla Other Problems

MY TOYOTA COROLLA LE (CAR) COMPLETELY LOSES POWER AND SHUTS DOWN RANDOMLY. IT HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. DURING ONE OCCASION IT SHUT DOWN WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS INCIDENT ALMOST COST ME MY LIFE AS WELL AS TWO OF MY CHILDREN (WHO ARE ADULTS). IT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF A LOT OF TRAFFIC CAUSING A SEMI TRUCK TO MISS US BY INCHES. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS ON STREETS AND IN PARKING LOTS. THE CAR IS ALWAYS IN MOTION WHEN THIS OCCURS. I HAVE HAD THE CAR'S ENGINE TESTED (THE BUSINESS THAT TESTED IT IS NOW OUT OF BUSINESS). THE TEST REVEALED THAT IT WAS A COIL PACK THAT WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. I HAD THE COIL PACK REPLACED BUT IT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. AT THIS POINT IT IS STILL UNKNOWN WHY MY VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN RANDOMLY. BELOW IT ASKS FOR A DATE WHEN THIS OCCURS. AS STATED ABOVE, IT HAS HAPPENED SO MANY TIMES THAT I CAN'T RECALL THOSE DATES, SO I PUT IN AN APPROXIMATE DATE THAT THE INCIDENT ON THE HIGHWAY OCCURRED. THE MILES ON THE CAR IS WHAT I HAVE ON IT AT THIS TIME (149,542).

I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP KING AUTOMALL IN MASON, OH FOR AN AIRBAG RECALL AND THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY CAR UP ON THE LIFT RUSTING THE ENTIRE EXHAUST SYSTEM OFF OF MY CAR ALONG WITH A FEW OTHERS VEHICLES. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP WHY WAS THEY UNDER MY CAR THE DEALERSHIP REPLIED THAT IT WAS SOMEONE'S ELSE CAR. I EXPLAINED TO THE DEALER THAT IT WAS MY CAR BECAUSE IT HAD MY LICENSE PLATE. THE SAME DAY MY ENTIRE EXHAUST SYSTEM BROKE APART DUE TO BEING RUSTED OUT. I INSPECTED MY EXHAUST RIGHT BEFORE I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND IT WAS IN GOOD SHAPE. PLEASE HAVE TIS INVESTIGATED AND STOPPED.

TL*THE CONTACT WANTED TO REPORT A FATAL ACCIDENT INVOLVING A 2004 TOYOTA CELICA. THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH ON NORMAL ROAD CONDITIONS. THE DRIVER WAS EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE DURING A ROLLOVER CRASH. THE VEHICLE TURNED OVER THREE TIMES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THE CAUSE OF FAILURE HAS NOT BEEN DETERMINED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN.

I HAVE HAD MY CAR FOR 2 YEARS NOW, EVERY TIME I TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALER I SHOW THEM THE GAP AND THE WARPING UP OF THE CONSOLE ABOVE THE RADIO. STILL UNTIL THIS DAY, THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE. IT HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE AND MORE OF THE TOP CONSOLE IS POPPING UP CAUSING A RATTLING NOISE. I ALSO SMELL THAT BAD EGG/ SULFUR SMELLING ORDER WHEN I USE THE AC OR THE HEAT. I AM SURE THIS CANT BE GOOD FOR ANYONE'S HEALTH. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH BOTH OF THESE COMPLAINTS. FACTORY RECALL? *JB

THE DRIVERS SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT GO DOWN ALL THE WAY BECAUSE THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IS IN THE WAY (IT HITS IT). THIS IS A DRIVING DISTRACTION TRYING TO REPOSITION THE REAR VIEW MIRROR EVERY TIME THE SUN VISOR IS LOWERED AND RAISED.*AK

THE MOLDING PIECE SEPERATING FROM AROUND THE RADIO. MY CAR WAS 3 MONTHS OLD WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS NOTICED. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM WORKED ON TWICE. THE SECOND TRIP IN,THE MOLDING WAS REPLACED WHICH HAS HELPED FOR THE MOST PART. AT FIRST THERE WAS A BIG GAP ON THE SIDES AND ON TOP OF THE RADIO AND MOLDING. IT STILL IS NOT 100% PERFECT AS I WOULD WISH FOR A BRAND NEW CAR BUT IT LOOKS BETTER NOW THAN IT DID IN THE BEGINNING.

Your driver's side window won't roll up the way it should. This could be caused by a problem with the window motor, regulator mechanism, or the electrical switch that controls the window movement.
