Steering

Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2023-2024 Corolla and Corolla Hybrid vehicles. Due to cracks developed during the manufacturing process, the steering intermediate shaft assembly may fracture and possibly result in the shaft detaching from the steering column.

A steering shaft that detaches can result in a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.

In owners’ own words

Collision avoidance mileage not reported 4 mo in service
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is unstable in detecting the front car, not only in light rainy conditions but also in heavy rainy conditions. The ACC fails to detect sedans and small SUVs but can detect larger vehicles such as pickup trucks and full-size SUVs. The car does not provide any warning sound or signal to the driver when failing to detect. This poses a significant safety risk as the driver may not be aware that the system selectively detects the front car in both light and heavy rainy conditions. The driver had barely avoided the accident.
Collision avoidance mileage not reported 11 mo in service
Brand new car with 300 miles jerks and jolts leaving from a stop and hesitates going up hill. Feels like car has no power behind it. Forward collision also breaks randomly. Currently at dealership.
Collision avoidance mileage not reported 1.8 yr in service
I was driving down the road, slowed down and moved over to the left side of the lane as I was passing a bicyclist. The car interpreted the bicyclist as a car and applied AEB. The AEB was not fully applied, thankfully. The car did not come to a complete stop. If it did, I may have been rear ended by the person behind me.
Other mileage not reported 6 mo in service
Steering—car seems to slip when driving at 30mph and taking a curve. Very brief. Traveling at 70mph car shakes.
