    Nhtsa received a petition on or about july 18, 2022, requesting that federal motor vehicle safety standard (fmvss) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the united states. The petition can be reviewed at nhtsa.Gov under odi number 11486072.Fmvss 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 kg or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after march 1, 2021.The petitioner asserts that hybrid and electric vehicles to which the standard does not apply should be found to contain a safety defect. In support of the petition, the petitioner includes findings contained in a bill introduced in the house of representatives in 2009, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2009, h.R. 734, 111th cong. (2009). A related bill, the pedestrian safety enhancement act of 2010, became law in january 2011 (pub. L. 111-373). The petitioner requests that nhtsa require all electric and hybrid vehicles comply with fmvss 141, regardless of production date.The defect petition has been opened to evaluate the issue and determine whether to grant or deny the petition.The associated product list is not exhaustive and may contain vehicles that are equipped with pedestrian alert sounds.

There is a defect to the left headlight of this vehicle causing the light from the low beam to be blocked beyond a distance of 60 feet from the front of the vehicle in a specific pattern to suggest that it is the result of an abberasion of the lens assembly. The defect is pronounced on unlit roadways because is severely affects the ability of the operator to identify the left hand lane markings and any road signs. The light disappears in a "v" pattern of approximately 130 degrees from when the initial source of light is pronounced up to a distance of 60'. Note that the right headlight suffers no lighting loss and the field of vision left to the left of the unlit portion is well lit.

Drive assist occasionally swerves out of lanes at parked vehicles, pedestrians, and even cars in on coming lanes. Happens inconsistently and is unpredictable. When the car is perfectly centered with drive assist on, you begin to let your gaurd down. Which is when you least expect your car to forcibly turn the steering wheel at an unsuspected bicyclist.

Dealer stated that there was a chemical buildup on the inside of the windshield that could affect the safety camera sensor (they claimed it was probably windex). Dealership claimed that the camera enclosure is not sealed and particulate may enter the enclosure. Said the problem is not covered under warranty. What happens is someone is a smoker or lives on a dirt road? Does toyota expect particulate in the enclosure to be acceptable? This may impact the performance of the safety systems, especially if there is sun glare. I bought the car in october 2019.

With only about 630 miles on my new 2020 toyota corolla, the vehicle stalled shortly after i had just made a turn in city traffic; i believe i was stopped at a light, and it wouldn't start up again when i put my foot on the gas. I had to have the car towed to the dealership where i'd bought it five months earlier; they gave it a thorough inspection, acknowledged the fact of the stall, but never found the cause of it (couldn't "duplicate the problem"). They had no problem starting the car once it was at their service. This was a one-time incident and i have had no problems since; i am now at over 1,400 miles. But it makes me uneasy that the source of the issue was never uncovered--especially now that i know there is a recall on 2020 corollas for faulty fuel pumps. (the fuel pump was the one thing that was never investigated at the time of the stall; the service person didn't think it was necessary.)

I turn the wheel to make a left turn and put my foot on the gas and the car diedall the buzzers whistles and lights were flashing on the dashboard.. I was able to shift the car to park and back to drive but nothing happened i was in the middle of traffic on a busy street and was just getting ready to call the tow truck when i decided to turn the car off. When i turned it back on it was fine and i was able to turn left. That happened to me twice on different occasions. Third time i was turning into a driveway and a truck pulled in front of me i had to put my foot on the break. And then i put my foot on the gas and turned left then right into the driveway and it died. Ithe dashboard said put in park when i put it in park it said engine power low. The first time i took it in to toyota i was sitting there for six hours and they could find nothing wrong. They told me they were working with corporate and no one had an answer for me. After the third time i called corporate and was dealing with a woman who was very professional and try to be helpful and told me to take a back to the dealership. I took a back left it for two days and they could find nothing wrong. The outcome was that if it happens again i should have it towed back to the toyota dealer and not turn it on.

On slow braking at speeds like 1-2mph, the pedal vibrates with spring effect. The issue is with brake pedal spring which toyota is not ready to fix. Shown to dealership, and service director at dealership said they cannot reproduce the issue and sent me away.

On slow braking at speeds like 1-2mph, the pedal vibrates with spring effect. The issue is with brake pedal spring which toyota is not ready to fix.

In an empty parking lot around noontime on a sunny day, i was trying to park my car. The car was in drive forward mode. I fully stopped for parking the car; i had to backup a little bit. After full stop (to protect my transmission), i moved the gear stick from drive to reverse and drive stick was showing me, i am in reverse, but the car instead of going back, started moving forward. Fortunately, the parking lot was empty and nobody got hurt, otherwise this would have seriously injured somebody in front of the car. However, when i moved the drive stick from drive to park and then come back to reverse this did not happen. I started searching in internet whether anybody else has experienced the same problem. I found out that other people have experienced the same problem and for fixing the problem what they had to do had to update the car's computer software, otherwise if one after full stop goes from drive directly to reverse, the car might start going forward. This problem, without software update can happen only in certain batch of the cars. So make sure you test your car and if you have the same problem, do not drive the car and take it back to the dealer for software update. *bf consumer stated it recurred several times.*jb

The battery tray (part number 74404-12560) which holds the vehicle's battery creates an unsafe condition. I noticed the battery tray is designed to fit only the panasonic battery that came with the vehicle. Thus, it is impossible to replace a discharged or defective panasonic battery with a standard bci group number battery which are readily available in retail stores. This situation will cause motorists to become stranded and is especially unsafe if the panasonic battery fails and needs to be replaced in the winter. Toyota should be required to recall the 2020 corolla and replace the battery tray with a new tray designed to fit a standard bci group battery. *ln*jb

The drivers side head light has a v shape "void" in its pattern and makes the car unsafe to drive at night. The passenger side does not exhibit this same pattern, so when negotiating a left hand curve, the void is very noticeable and makes seeing up ahead in the distance very difficult (not possible). This happens to fall in the area of what i would call my "look ahead distance" and as such makes the car unsafe to drive at night. This "void" is not present when the head lights are put on "high", so i feel it is a led light bulb issue more than anything else...But the servicing dealer refuses to fix this problem citing a similar 2020 corolla displays the same pattern. They pulled another car into the shop and displayed it along with mine against a wall. While i agree the patterns on the wall looked similar, this was not a good test because you need to see what pattern of light is cast down range at night. Please see attached picture. If all newer model corolla se exhibit this light pattern, than the vehicles need to be recalled and fixed along with mine.

2020 toyota corolla se -(vehicle purchased new) (cvt transmission) upon minimal to normal acceleration vehicle makes a hard shift feel like a bump kick in acceleration of speed between 8-9 mph. Will feel more of a hard shift at times if coasting with minimal speed then to the normal acceleration (start and stop traffic type of conditions). Periodically once reaching to speed of 36 mph seems like the transmission is starting to slip then continues with normal operation. While sedentary at stop light vehicle has had loss of power in and out near stalling out. Separate occasion without the air conditioner being on, a rough idol took place. At times if put in sports mode shifting is smooth without too much trouble; with exception of at higher speed open road removing off the gas pedal will make a whining high rev noise like the transmission went out and did not down shift even with pressure applied to the brake. Will then down shift after approximately 15-20 seconds. Lane departure indicators have gone off without there being a correct response for that action taking place. Vehicle has been owned for less than ninety days and appears to continually further in its defects.

Between 10 and 20 mph occasionally, not always, there is a hard shift that doesn't feel normal. It is usually under light acceleration and conditions. Even trying to mimic it under the same exact conditions, sometimes it will simply not do it.. Sometimes it will be a hard thump. Other times it will feel premature. (shifting before it should) i wanted to believe it is the transition from the launch gear to the cvt but the timing of the transition and the degree of the hard shift even under the same conditions tends to vary considerably.

Dealership (sheehy toyota in fredericksburg va) and could experience the same feeling on light to moderate acceleration. I informed the dealership that the feeling they were experiencing is minor compared to what it usually feels like when driving. They experienced the same thing when driving another 2020 corolla off the lot with light to moderate acceleration. Then a day later they drove another 20202 corolla supposedly for another 30 minutes and could not duplicate the hard shift and noted that when driving both the customers car and a new car the shift feeling varied from time to time so there was nothing they would do. They also said they contacted the engineers at toyota who said that this hard shift feeling was normal. Looks like toyota is back at it with just deny everything and hope the problem goes away. Very unhappy with my experience especially with how toyota has handled this so far. I will not go away until they fix this problem.

We bought the car on 07-29-19 and on 08-04-19 while driving home from maryland the car sensor lights started flashing after only 250 miles on the car. The flashing lights were for brakes and parking brake, lane departure and assist, back up and front camera, check engine, tire pressure, head lights, and rsa malfunctions. Basically the entire safety system of the car malfunctioned while i was driving. This happened on five different occasions while driving it. 7-29-19, 8-2, 5, 9-19 and the car was in motion each time while on a highway. I had it to the dealer twice and they are still working on it. The first time they said the car needed to be reprogrammed and they couldn't duplicate the problem and the second time the service manager is claiming it is a wire which i find it difficult to believe since there are multiple codes and i don't think they all go through one wire. Our family does not feel comfortable driving the car when all of these lights are flashing and not knowing if the car is safe to drive and if the safety features in the car will operate properly. I have video and pictures of the codes that were flashing if needed. I could not upload them due to the size of the files.

07/09/19 - three days after taking delivery of a brand new 2020 corolla sedan, my car stalled in the middle of a busy city street. I was stationary with foot on the brake waiting to make a left turn. When i took my foot of the brake and attempted to accelerate, it had a complete power failure. Red warning light came on saying engine power low. I was unable to start the car again for several minutes. I was nearly hit by cars going around me. I took it to the dealer for service and there were no error codes and they could not duplicate the problem. 08/06/19 - my brother was driving on a highway in stop and go conditions during rush hour traffic. With his foot on the gas pedal, the entire vehicle jerked or jumped several times in succession, stopped and then did the same thing twice more. It felt as if it was going to lose power or not getting enough gas. I took it back to same dealer for service. Once again, no error codes and they were unable to duplicate the problem. Service foreman told me those 2 incidents were definitely related. I reported both issues very dangerous incidents to toyota customer support as i feel that i am driving an unsafe vehicle. At first, they were receptive and even sent a toyota factory representative to inspect the car. Then my case manager told me they found nothing wrong and "could not verify my concerns". She said there was nothing more they could do and there were no repairs to be made. After doing more research online, i found that the 2019 corolla hatchback was recalled in december 2018 to replace the cvt transmission due to a manufacturing error that could cause loss of motive power. The info i read stated the exact same engine is in the 2020 corolla sedan, but it has not been included in a recall. I am very concerned for my safety, as well as that of my passengers, and other vehicles.

This fender is plastic and was attached to the car with plastic fasteners. It is a flowingly put together piece of junk. This is a safety issue since fender would come off and hit the car behind you whenever this car hits a slight bump on a highway. This is a design defect since during the 46 years i lived in the same home and owned many cars including 2 toyota camry, vw rabbit, mustang, porsche, mercury sable , 2 cadillacs, 3 buicks and i had no problem of any of these cars scoping ground and loosing a fender.
