For several weeks, I had noticed an unusual humming or dragging noise coming from the front driver’s side of my vehicle while driving. The noise became increasingly noticeable, but I did not know what was causing it.  On October 8, 2026, after driving approximately 30 miles at highway speeds of around 75 mph, I arrived home and began backing into my driveway. While the vehicle was moving in reverse, it suddenly made a noticeable clunk and jerk. This was the first and only time I had experienced the vehicle jerking.  I took my vehicle to an authorized Toyota dealership on October 9, 2026. The dealership recommended replacing the transmission assembly. I was verbally informed that an internal transmission bearing had failed.  Throughout the weeks leading up to the diagnosis, my vehicle never displayed a check engine light, transmission warning, or any other dashboard warning message.  I regularly drive approximately 60 miles per day, including interstate travel. I am concerned that an unexpected transmission failure while driving at highway speeds could cause a loss of propulsion or leave the vehicle disabled in traffic, potentially putting myself and other motorists at risk.  Although I have not experienced a complete loss of propulsion, the worsening noise, sudden clunk and jerk while reversing, and dealership’s recommendation to replace the transmission have raised concerns about the vehicle’s continued safe operation.  I am requesting that NHTSA document and evaluate this transmission failure to determine whether it may represent a potential safety defect affecting Toyota C-HR vehicles.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2020","productMake":"TOYOTA","productModel":"C-HR","manufacturer":"Toyota Motor Corporation"}]}]}
