What owners wrote

I was driving uphill on a one-way street in downtown when I saw and heard the sparks about 1 minute apart from each other on the front left side between the crack of the hood, the car lost power and turned off. I started it again, and it only moved about two feet and turned off. The car started to roll back, and the steering wheel locked making it impossible to steer.

June 2012 Fire

2007 toyota corolla engine and transmission computer broke while I was driving on highway 128 north. I was going 60 miles per hour at 7:45am on monday morning when the engine totally stalled. That was very dangerous and could have killed me and others if they hit me. I was lucky to be able to go all the way to the right and stop on the break down lane to call aaa for a tow to the toyota dealer where they run a scan and found out that the computer needs replacement.
