Owner report 11577985 · 2024-03-18 (March 18, 2024)
The absence of towing eyelets on the Toyota Corolla Cross, despite suggestions in the Owner's Manual to utilize them in emergencies, may pose a safety risk to drivers and the vehicle itself. Additionally, the presence of plastic covers on the bumpers falsely suggests the existence of towing eyelets, potentially misleading consumers. Please see attached PDF

Owner report 11581131 · 2024-04-04 (April 4, 2024)
This concerns the media screen and has affected several models from 2023, incl my car. I use the screen for my GPS, for getting around and making timely turns and signals when in unfamiliar areas. The problem is that, starting a month after I acquired the car, this screen has pop-up ads that completely cover the screen that try to sell a service I do not want, called "drive-connect". (This is NOT part of the "free trial" services that are not invasive; there is a $15 charge for "drive-connect".) So I can find myself on a multi-lane highway ne…

Owner report 11588356 · 2024-05-12 (May 12, 2024)
After dark, the vehicle was started and the dashboard touchscreen that displays backup camera and other information was moderately bright. The display setting was set to 'Automatic', expecting the screen to dim when ambient light is low. On shifting into forward gear, the screen actually brightens. In the dark. With the inside light too bright, it is difficult to see objects outside of the vehicle. I scraped a mailbox, which I couldn't see as I pulled to the side of the road to turn the display off. Vehicle cosmetic damage, no police report. Co…

Owner report 11590371 · 2024-05-23 (May 23, 2024)
While driving down long hills, car jumps out of adaptive cruise control. Car just goes into coasting mode and never picks up again. Speed drops and car doesn't return to cruise. If you step on accelerator cruise doses return. This occurred many times descending Blue Mountain on route 309. Could be a problem if cars trail to close behind. Car also jumps out of cruise control when going over rough bumps.

Owner report 11592721 · 2024-06-05 (June 5, 2024)
Night driving in this vehicle is impaired because of the dark spots and shaded areas coming from the headlights. It creates a distraction for the driver and is safety concern. I find it very difficult to drive at night. I have contacted Toyota directly and had vehicle inspected. Their response is that it is part of the design and is not repairable.

Owner report 11595312 · 2024-06-19 (June 19, 2024)
We recently leased a 2024 Toyota Corolla Cross. While driving home on I4, there is a section of the road that has (longitudinal) grooves in the road surface between exits 118 and 129. The vehicle starts to bounce 'back and forth' in the lane, as if it wants to change lanes, but it stays in the lane, continually moving from side to side. No indication in the steering wheel that anything is wrong. We brought it to a Toyota dealer, and they said 'some cars have that problem on grooved surfaces, but nothing is wrong with the vehicle'. Thanks
