Owner report 11464502 · 2022-05-13 (May 13, 2022)
Soon after purchasing my car, there was a chip and crack in the windshield that had no known cause or occurred when it was not being driven. A couple months after that, there was a rock thrown up getting onto the highway that should not have broken the glass because it did not hit hard enough to typically break the glass and I also have a glass protectant on my windows. I fear there may be a defect in the glass used for the 2021/2022 Toyota Corollas because my friend with the same car, but year 2021 complained of the same problem. It should be …

Owner report 11474059 · 2022-07-15 (July 15, 2022)
Rain water accumulates in the doors of a brand new car that is only 4 weeks old. The only official fix, according to Toyota and NTSA, is to remove the plugs at the bottom so the water can drain out every time it rains. This is not a fix. The water should not be accumulating in the door at all. Over time, the repeated water accumulation will cause mold, mildew, rust and damage the electrical system. This is absolutely absurd.

There is a high pitch electrical whine coming from the fan blower (right side by the glove compartment) noise causes pain to my right ear after hearing it consistently which I believe will become a health problem. Vehicle has had blower replaced by Toyota dealer with no fix. There are numerous complaints found on Toyota forums describing this exact issue and nothing has been done to rectify this issue.
