Toyota replaced the valve under warranty the first time, but it failed again with the same error code, and the dealership technician warned you the same defective part would likely fail again. The valve can fail suddenly without warning, potentially causing your engine to stall and causing significant damage, which could be a safety risk to you and other drivers.

I bought my car Toyota Corolla coss has three months with 3,700 miles on it. and has had two times problems. The first time, on February 28 2023 at 8 a.m., I was at a traffic light stop my car about 15 seconds later when I heard a warning beep. The message read "low steering power," low battery, and then steering lock. I tried to turn off the engine button, but there was no response. I pressed it three times, put the handle stop on the park, and then started it again. My car was parked in the middle of the road, causing a traffic jam behind me, and I couldn't get out because it was dangerous. The second time in March 10.2023 3pm. after the stop at the light and anything like first time... It was rainy both times. I'm worried it's dangerous on the highway. It was raining and I had my wipers on and my stop and start system on. I haven't reported it to Toyota dealership. Both of them are in the middle of the road. I'm not sure if there are any defects in this car. Thank you!

Lost all acceleration going up a hill. Pressed the gas pedal to the floor as I had a line of cars behind me. Nothing. Placed vehicle in neutral and back into drive. Was slowly able to proceed forward at about 10 mph until top of hill where gained speed. Has since happened 2 additional times. No warnings and happens at take off and hills. I did ask service department at dealership where I purchased to have it looked over. Nothing. I feel I could easily be hurt.
