Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: When traveling in rain or on wet roads such as i-95, steering, air conditioning, alternator and brakes fail. apparently water on the power belt causes it to slip and renders the components to be inoperative until the water is removed. this has caused many close calls such as making a left turn onto another street and losing the steering when half way through the turn heading me to pedestrians on the sidewalk. at the same time the air conditioner/defroster quits and the windshield fogs until the a/c is manually reset. adding to the problem . i reported this problem to the service manager who replied that he had never hear of a similar problem and that he would check for information with toyota and get back to me, six months ago he never did. i believe a record of this malfunctioning component should be made as i can not believe that other corolla owners do not have the same dangerous problem. dt
