2018 Toyota C-HR POWER TRAIN,ENGINE

My 2018 Toyota, which has around 96,000 miles, is experiencing transmission failure. I recently had it inspected by an independent repair shop, and they confirmed the issue is caused by a bad bearing inside the transmission—a problem they mentioned is common for this model. The transmission makes a loud whining noise and could fail at any time, which puts my safety and the safety of others at risk since it could cause the car to lose power or stall in the middle of the road. There were no warning lights, messages, or signs before the issue started. I contacted Toyota about the problem, but they refused to cover the repair because the vehicle is out of warranty. However, given how new the car still is and that this issue is known to occur in similar models, I believe this is a safety hazard that Toyota should take responsibility for.

General Defect with Transmission causing gear slippage at low RPMs from day one. Car can soft stutter to hard stutter going from idling position to soft press of accelerator. Hard transmission failure starting at 80K mi even with preventative maintenance. additional engine stalls randomly in middle of driving starting to appear with no error codes.

Powertrain transmission breakdown and failure. From my investigating it is clearly evident this is a common recurring safety malfunction. pertaining to 2018 Toyota Chr. I have read over 100 cases in online forums describing exactly what is now happening to my vehicle. Starts with a loud front end humming or whistling noise when the car is accelerating over 5mph. In a short time the problem worsen to shuttering, and ultimate transmission failure. Almost all the cases I have read the occurrence happens between 60,000 - 90,000 miles. Once brought in for diagnosis the outcome is the same for all vehicles the Transmission and torque converter are at fault and needs to be replaced. What I have further discovered is Toyota did a recall on the one vehicle that is identical to the 2018 Toyota Chr: Toyota recalls Corolla Hatchbacks The torque converter in the Continuously Variable Transmission could fail Read less Toyota is recalling about 3,400 model year 2019 Corolla Hatchbacks. The torque converter in the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) could fail, resulting in a loss of motive power increasing the risk of crash. What to do Toyota is currently obtaining parts to replace the Direct Shift-CVT with a new one containing a new torque converter not affected by this issue at no cost to customers. Owners of all recalled vehicles will will be notified by first-class mail. The recall is expected to begin in mid-February. Owners may contact Toyota at (800) 331-4331 Toyota is recalling about 3,400 model year 2019 Corolla Hatchbacks.The torque converter in the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) could fail, resulting in injury From what I read this was not a Government or Safety mandated recall and Toyota did this recall silently, letting the problem vehicles come to them first. Please see that something is done for this clear and present safety issue.

Just driving hearing noise from passenger side wheels took to toyata 15000 for repair Transmission bad

I am currently at 57,110 miles and I noticed a whining noise coming from the front of my car while driving with the window down on June 5, 2022. It’s as if it’s coming from the wheel bearing or front axle. I also noticed today that my car had a kick to it, like a horse galloping. This seems to be very mysterious as I just took my car to a Toyota dealership at the end of April and they reported absolutely no issues. I’m afraid that my power train/transmission may be going bad, which would be very very awful as my car hasn’t even reached 60,000 miles yet.

I have had this car since Oct of 2017, I bought it from Kerry Toyota of Florence ky, I have spent so much money on this car, and I'm at 59k miles. I have heard a whining noise for some time now, I took it to the dealership and they said there was nothing wrong but recently it got worse so I took it to an autobody shop that I trust and they said it was the transmission. So I took it to Kerry again it was still under warranty just by 1000 Miles. Turns out it was my transmission. I've never been rough on my vehicles obviously I drove it to 59K I should not have to get a whole new transmission. So I did some digging turns out MULTIPLE people have had the same issue with their 2018 CHR's. Also when I went to pick it up from the dealership it was dead so they jumped it for me. Then when I got to where I was going and then got back in to start my car it wouldn't start again. So come to find out my battery is shot. Now On average, a car battery lasts from 5 to 7 years. I understand that that can differ tremendously but I saw where multiple people have been through a lot of batteries with their CHR's so I was upset and angry about my car so I traded it in. Now they gave me $15,000 at first. They said I needed new tires, New battery, I had a scratch on my back bumper and apparently my front bumper. Now upon me looking at my car I do have a scratch in the back bumper but the front isn't touched. So they gave me $15,500 I feel like I should have got more for my car due to the problems I have gone through. I had $12 left on my car so I did get positive equity but the quality of the car isn't my problem and I don't feel I should suffer the depreciation because of the issues it has had because that's on the manufacturers, not I. They should have already done a Recall on the Transmissions. Here is the BIG reason why. IF my car was covered, if I drove 1000 more miles I would have had to pay $8,600 for them to fix my transmission!
