I ENCOUNTERED A FLAT TIRE. I PULLED THE TIRE OFF AND PLACED THE SPARE ON. THE BRAKE DRUM CAME OFF THE CAR AND REMAINED HOUSED IN THE WHEEL WELL.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN CHANGING THE TIRE AND IN MOTION WHEN BRAKE SYSTEM DAMAGE WAS DONE.

HOW CAN I VERIFY THAT THE SAFETY RECALL A0J PHASE 1 ON MY 2005 TOYOTA MATRIX WAS REP[ACED BY A GOOD ECU? I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE ECU WAS BAD. I THINK THEY ARE NOT BEING COMPLETELY HONEST AND DID NOT LOOK UP ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY INFORMATION ON IT BECAUSE THEY DID NOT EVEN MENTION THE RECENT AIR BAG ISSUES IN CERTAIN STATES.I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE USED AND I BELIEVE THE VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN PROPERLY FIXED BY THE ORIGINAL RECALLS / WARRANTIES.
