My vehicle has 21K miles 2017 bought new and the front rotors need to be replaced. I drive local, and I am being told hard stops on brakes will overheat the rotors. I do not drive at 90mph then jam on the brakes. I do not drive at highway speeds, cannot drive after dusk. I believe the rotors are defective. I notice when I drive 10 miles and back the rotors are to hot to touch, they are overheating. I called toyota USA and they will do nothing for me. I should not be replacing rotors at 21K miles. I had a 2008 yaris and drove that car for 5.5 years and I never replaced rotors.

The exact tires/car I have were not listed. they are: 2017 toyota yaris ia toyo proxes A27 tires today I was driving my car on surface streets. I was stopped at a red light and a warning came on that said I had low tire pressure. I pulled off to the side of the road at the next block to check my tire pressure and discovered my tire was completely shredded. I had only driven 2 miles from where I had started and my tires were fine when I left. this particular problem has occurred twice. Once on august 1ST, 2018 as I parked on a residential street (the low pressure light didn't even come on at this time) and the second time today, october 3RD, 2018. Both times I have had to replace the tire because it IS completely shredded. I have never seen a tire explode like this and I have seen it happen twice over the course of two months in a 16 month old car with only 20K miles on it. I had a 200K mile 2002 honda and while it had flats once every 5-6 years maybe, I never had a tire explode like this and I drive less now than I did with my honda. There IS clearly something wrong with these tires that makes them so susceptible to shredding like that. It makes me very scared to continue driving. I worry the next time this happens I will be on a freeway or not somewhere easy to pull over to the side of the road.

After several calls to toyota and several days of repair they have yet to fix the issue with the toyota yaris having the tire signal turning on not only IS it a waste of money because it turns on every other day or so at random times and we have to take it and pay to take it to get it fixed again but it also IS a safety hazard because it's higher could really be low and I just think it's messing up and I get a flat tire and be stranded on the side of the road for hours. Or the tire could blow out and cause me to have a wreck and I could injure myself or the other people in the car

There has been many times that when I needed the car to accelerate it wouldn't, nearly causing an accident several times. What usually happens IS I will come up to a corner to make a turn and instead of stopping I accelerate to avoid oncoming traffic only to have the car hesitate . Sometimes I have had to push the accelerator peddle to the floor and even then it takes some time for the car to move faster. Also I have found that in traffic I will need to accelerate to avoid a collision only to find the car does not downshift and seemingly hesitating. Now not every time does this happen, but it happens sporadically. this dangerous, and I asked the dealer to check out the transmission, which they did but they found nothing. It was on july 19, 2017 that I took the car to the dealer, lombard toyota customer #103445, invoice #382304.

Service bulletins
Technical service bulletins and other communications the manufacturer sent dealers about this vehicle. Ask a dealer for the full document by its number.
- 11007455Some 2005 2024 Toyota vehicles that have undergone water intrusion may exhibit a condition in which a musty odor is present. Follow the procedures in this bulletin to remediate the odor and address this condition. The purpose of this Service Bulletin is to provide general guidelines and procedures for odor remediation. This Service Bulletin provides a guide on how to prepare and treat the interior of the vehicle for odor remediation. Refer to the applicable model and model year Repair Manual and the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) website for the most up-to-date safety and precautionary guidelines. This Service Bulletin is to provide a general overview and direction for the odor remediation process.
- 11007445The condition known as acid rain is caused by airborne chemicals or particles in the atmosphere, which mix with rainwater, nighttime dew, or high humidity to form acidic compounds. If these contaminants settle and remain on a painted vehicle surface, especially the horizonal areas of the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage can occur. This damage is the result of actual etching of the paint and appears as pitting or water spots. As acid rain droplets on the vehicle surface evaporate, the concentration strength of the acid increases, causing deeper and more rapid damage. This evaporation and corrosive action also occur more rapidly on dark colored cars as direct sun heat increases. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. In areas known for high frequency and/or concentration of acid rain (see Figure 1), frequent vehicle washing during high heat or humidity periods will minimize the potential for paint damage caused by acid rain. It is further recommended that either reverse osmosis or deionized water be used to prevent water spotting.
- 11007444To prevent brake rotor rust from forming during transportation and storage, wheel film will be used instead of a cardboard type of anti-rust cover. The purpose of the wheel film is to shield the disc brake rotor from weather elements and initial rust before the vehicle is delivered to the customer. Consequently, the film should remain on the wheel for as long as possible.
- 11007443Acid rain results from rainwater or other airborne moisture that become acidic due to industrial chemical impurities in the atmosphere. If these acidic compounds settle on an exposed vehicle, especially the horizontal areas such as the hood, roof, and decklid, significant damage to the painted surfaces can occur. Acid rain damage can typically be identified on vehicles by the presence of stains on the paint surface that resemble hard water spots. Unlike water spots however, acid rain damage cannot be removed by regular washing procedures. Also, because acid rain can etch and soften the paint, normal buffing or polishing repair procedures should not be attempted. This can cause further damage and result in visible depressions in the paint surface. The following are the three major categories of acid rain damage: Minor damage: requires only buffing to repair. Moderate damage: usually requires neutralizing, color sanding, and buffing. Severe damage: extending beyond 1/2 mil of clearcoat on a pearl, metallic, or solid color, requires neutralization, sanding, and repainting. In cases where acid rain damage is minor, neutralization and buffing with a liquid-type paint finessing product may provide an adequate repair. Only specially formulated products outlined in this bulletin should be used for that purpose. Unfortunately, other than minor damage, there is no simple method of determining the actual extent (depth) of acid penetration other than color sanding a representative affected area until there is no visible etching or depressions, followed by measuring the amount of paint removed with either a magnetic or digital-type film thickness gauge. The procedures in this bulletin are intended for use by qualified body/paint technicians and should not be attempted by inexperienced personnel. It is the dealers responsibility to protect and maintain the quality of the vehicles paint finish after receipt at the dealership prior to the first sale. Perform frequent vehicle washing, as often as daily, during high heat and humidity periods to minimize the potential for paint damage due to acid rain exposure. This is especially important in geographical areas known for high frequency and concentration of acid rain and industrial fallout.

- 11005153Toyota vehicles are currently protected with RapgardTM protective film designed to protect the horizontal painted surfaces. This material protects from acid rain, environmental fallout, and rail contamination.
- 11005149Vehicles may occasionally be subjected to contamination by airborne iron particles shed from railroad tracks, train wheels, exposure to heavy machinery facilities, grinding, welding, etc. This type of contamination can be identified by the presence of small, red or brown particles on the paint surface. These particles are often difficult to see on dark color paints but can be easily felt when brushing a hand across horizontal body surfaces such as the hood, roof, or deck lid.
