Malfunctioning components 1. Door locks do not lock all the time when the lock button is pressed. 2. Randomly I will find my doors unlocked, when I closed them when I got out. 3. Doors unlock by themselves and that poses a problem for me and my family. To be able to figure out the issue I have to take it to the dealer where they charge an arm and a leg to diagnose the issue, due to Covid-19 and the hardship it has caused my family I don’t have the funds to do that. Somebody has to push the dealers to help the consumers out for a change. Thank you.

MY YARIS HAS FEW MILES ON IT. LAST AUGUST I TRIED TO START THE CAR BY INSERTING THE IGNITION KEY AND TURNING IT. THE STARTING MOTOR RAN, BUT DID NOT SEEM TO ENGAGE THE ENGINE. I RELEASED THE KEY AND THE STARTING MOTOR KEPT RUNNING UNTIL I PHYSICALLY TURNED THE KEY BACK TO THE OFF POSITION. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BETWEEN AUGUST AND DECEMBER. IN DECEMBER I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR STATE INSPECTION AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK OUT THE STARTER. THEY FOUND NOTHING, BUT SUGGESTED I SHOULD REPLACE THE BATTERY, WHICH I HAD THEM DO. ALL WAS WELL UNTIL JULY 3, 2015 WHEN THE SAME SEQUENCE HAPPENED AGAIN. I TRIED THE STARER ABOUT 2 HOURS LATER AND ALL WAS WELL. I FEEL I CAN NOT TRUST THE VEHICLE TO START WHEN I NEED IT.

THE TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY CAN FIND NOTHING WRONG . IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE MONTH THAT I OWN THE CAR AND DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN THE CAR WAS AT THE SERVICE DEPT. THEY SAID THE VOLTAGE WAS WITHIN SPECIFICATIONS AND THAT IT'S NORMAL TO GET A HOT IGNITION KEY AND TUMBLER. THE CAR WAS NOT IN THE SUN . I DON'T BELIEVE IT IS NORMAL.

Oct 22, 2015
Toyota Motor Company (Toyota) is recalling certain model year 2009-2011 Tundra, Sequoia, Corolla, Corolla Matrix and Scion xB, 2008-2011 Highlander and Highlander Hybrid, 2007 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2009 Camry and Camry Hybrid, 2006-2011 RAV4, 2006-2010 Yaris, and 2009-2010 Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. During the manufacturing of the Power Window Master Switch (PWMS), grease lubricant may have been inconsistently applied to the sliding electrical contacts.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the sliding electrical contacts are not protected by lubricant, debris and moisture that get into the switch may cause a short circuit and the switch assembly may overheat and melt, increasing the risk of a fire.
Remedy: Toyota will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the switch, applying a lubricant if no abnormality is found. If abnormality is found, the PWMS circuit board will be replaced, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin December 20, 2015. Owners may contact Toyota customer service at 1-800-331-4331. Toyota's number for this recall is C0M.
Apr 9, 2014
Toyota is recalling certain model year 2006-2008 RAV4, 2006-2010 Yaris, 2008-2010 Highlander, and 2009-2010 Tacoma, Corolla, Corolla Matrix and General Motors Pontiac Vibe vehicles. In the affected vehicles, the steering column assembly contains electrical connections to the driver's airbag module housed in a spiral cable assembly, which includes a Flexible Flat Cable (FFC). Due to the shape and location of the FFC's retainer, the FFC could become damaged when the steering wheel is turned.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the FFC is damaged, connectivity to the driver's air bag module could be lost and the air bag deactivated. The failure of the driver's air bag to deploy in the event of a crash that typically necessitates deployment increases the risk of injury to the driver.
Remedy: Toyota will notify the Toyota vehicle owners, and General Motors will notify the Pontiac Vibe owners. Toyota sent owners an interim notification letter in May 2014 to advise owners of the recall. Toyota will mail owners a second letter when remedy parts are available. General Motors sent Pontiac Vibe owners an Interim letter on June 20, 2014 notifying them that parts are currently unavailable. General Motors sent notices to the Pontiac Vibe owners on September 15, 2014, that a remedy is available. The recall began on October 27, 2014. Owners may contact Toyota at 1-800-331-4331.
