A severe, pre-existing life-safety defect and unauthorized structural modification were discovered on my 2024 Toyota Corolla . Following a routine diagnostic check for vehicle pulling, certified Toyota technicians discovered that the vehicle's primary fuel line had been dangerously altered and was held together underneath the chassis by an unsecured wire clothes hanger. The vehicle was immediately grounded as an active fire and explosion hazard. A forensic vehicle inspection by a major insurance carrier (Traveler's) subsequently denied standard repair coverage, formally documenting that the wire-rigged fuel system was a pre-existing mechanical defect resulting from previous work done prior to my purchase of the vehicle from McCluskey Automotive. The selling dealership actively concealed an unroadworthy condition that exposed myself and my minor daughter to a catastrophic vehicle fire.

The contact owns a 2024 Toyota Corolla. The contact stated that while idling at a stop, the vehicle was rear-ended. During the crash, the driver's seat unexpectedly reclined backwards, and the air bags failed to deploy. The contact received an on-site assessment by the paramedics but declined to be transported from the scene. The contact later sought medical attention for whiplash, a concussion, and neck and back pain. The other driver involved in the crash had not been injured. No Police report was filed. The manufacturer was notified of the issue and provided a reference number. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 45,500.

I was involved in a vehicle accident Mar. 31, 2026. And only the side curtain air bags deployed. Neither driverside steering wheel airbag (which caused me to fracture my sternum) nor the passanger side airbag deployed.

Subject / Issue: Child car seat caused vehicle seat belt to become permanently jammed Complaint: I am reporting a safety-related issue involving an Evenflo Revolve 360 child car seat. During normal use, the vehicle seat belt became slightly twisted inside the car seat base, and the seat stopped rotating properly. We were then unable to remove the child car seat from the base following the standard removal instructions. While attempting to safely remove the seat, the vehicle seat belt became completely jammed inside the base. The seat belt is now fully immobilized and cannot move in either direction. As a result, the child car seat is permanently stuck in the vehicle, and the seat belt system in the left rear seat is unusable. We had the vehicle inspected at a Toyota service center, and they confirmed that the only way to remove the child seat is to cut and replace the left rear seat belt. The estimated repair cost is approximately $680. This situation has rendered a vehicle safety restraint system inoperable and requires cutting the seat belt to resolve the issue. I am concerned about the safety design and potential risk if this occurs during normal consumer use. Photos of the issue are available and can be provided if needed.

On 6/7 while driving 65 mph I hit a deer on the driver front. My car detected the crash and deployed every airbag inside the car. I received an injury to my legs from the driver's airbag under my steering wheel. If this airbag were not there, I would have had no injuries from this accident. I have missed work and was seen at the local ED for treatment.
