I HAVE A TOYOTA COROLLA. I WAS PULLED OVER ONE TIME BY THE NASHUA POLICE IN 2007 ALLEGING THAT MY VEHICLE WAS SWERVING. I COULDN'T FEEL IF IT DOES..BUT COUPLE WEEKS AGO I OBSERVED IT VERY CLOSELY.AND YES IT DOES SWERVED. I WOULD LIKE TO ADD TO THE LIST OF MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT THAT THE SECOND TIME THAT MY CAR ACCELERATED IN REVERSE MOTION COULD ALSO BE ATTRIBUTED TO STEERING MECHANISM. WHY ? I WAS ENGAGED IN REVERSE , WHILE CUTTING THE WHEEL TO MAKE A 90 DEGREES ANGLE BACKING BUT MY CAR WENT INTO A DONUT SPIN. AS A WOMAN WHAT DO I KNOW ABOUT CARS. ALL I KNOW IS THAT IT IS TOO IRONIC THAT THE SIMILARITIES OF THESE INCIDENTS ARE TOO FARFETCH TO IGNORE. THEY ARE IDENTICAL TO EACH OTHER. I AM SCARED TO RIDE IN IT SINCE THEN. I REMEMBER THE FIRST CAR I HAVE WAS A CELICA,THAT TOO CROSS A MIDDLE ISLAND WHILE I WAS MAKING A U TURN. AND THE RUST INSIDE MY TRUNK . WHY WOULD THE RUST IS INSIDE THE TRUNK. THE SEATBELT DOESN'T WORK. THE SEAT ARE TOO LOW THAT IF I DON'T REINFORCE IT WITH PADDED P...

MY CAR ACCELERATED ON REVERSE WHEREIN INSTEAD OF MAKING A 90 DEGREES ANGLE THE CAR WENT SWIPING IN 180 DEGREES. BOTH TIMES WAS RAINY. BOTH TIMES THE HEADLIGHTS & THE WINDSHIELD WIPER & THE BACK WINDOW DEFOGGER IS ON. DURING THIS BACK UP WHEN I TURN MY HEAD , THE REAR BACK WINDSHIELD WAS VERY BLURRY & TWICE THIS HAPPENS TO ME. BOTH TIMES I WAS MAKING A REVERSE LEFT SIDE CORNER. WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR THE LEFT BACKLIGHT IS DAMAGED. I PUT THINGS TOGETHER THAT MAYBE THE SAME THING HAD HAPPEN TO THE FIRST OWNER OF MY CAR. I HAVE DRIVEN IN ALL OVER THE WORLD FOR 18 YEARS, WITHOUT ANY ACCIDENT HAPPENED TO ME IN THE HIGHWAYS BUT THE ONLY TWO ACCIDENT I HAVE WITH SO FAR IS ON THIS CAR IN MY OWN BACKYARD, ON THE SAME EXACT MOTION, SAME WEATHER CONDITION. THE CAR WAS ON REVERSE. THE TWO TIMES IT HAPPENED WAS VERY IDENTICAL TO EACH OTHER.

AFTER BUYING A USED 1991 TOYOTA COROLA I NOTICED 3 OUT OF 5 SEAT BELTS IN THIS CAR WERE DEFECTIVE. THE RETRACTOR ON THE SEAT BELTS DID NOT LATCH WHEN I PULLED ON IT QUICKLY. MY WIFE AND I DID NOT EVEN NOTICE WHEN WE WERE TEST DRIVING THE CAR. THEY APPEARED TO BE FINE. I BELIEVE THERE WERE MANY OF THESE CARS ON THE ROAD. THESE SEAT BELTS WERE JUNK AND NEEDED TO BE RECALLED BY TOYOTA, AND THEY NEED TO REPLACE THEM WITH PROPERLY WORKING ONES FREE OF CHARGE BEFORE PEOPLE GET HURT OR KILLED. I CALLED TOYOTA AND ASKED THEM TO FIX THEM FREE OF CHARGE. THEY TOLD ME THEY WILL NOT BECAUSE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS WAS A VERY URGENT SAFETY ISSUE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO FIX THEM FREE OF CHARGE. I CALLED A TOYOTA DEALER, AND THEY WANT $600 FOR 3 SETS OF SEAT BELTS, AND THAT DID NOT NOT EVEN INCLUDE LABOR TO INSTALL THEM. TO MAKE THINGS WORSE THEY WERE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO WORK ON. THEY MADE IT DIFFICULT ON PURPOSE SO THAT THE CONSUMERS GOT STUCK WITH A HUGE BILLS IF THEY WANTED THE...
