2010 Yaris HELP PLEASE
My Yaris was hit in run (L) corner rear bumper while parked, not hard but enough to crack the bumper, it could be a coincidence but that's when it all started. My battery light started to sporadically appear and disappear on the dash board and did so for a couple days. I took it to O"Riellys and the battery, starter and alternator tested fine. Confused because it still drove great, until the 3rd day, while driving my kids to school, I lost power steering, and the ABS light along with the battery light and break illuminated my dash board, followed by loss of dash board lights, stiff to no breaks and loss of power, it was a hot mess. I pulled over turned the car off then back on and like magic all was fine. Until that evening when it happened AGAIN...I turned my Yaris off, then back on and it was hesitant to start but within 5 minutes it did...PLEASE HELP, has anyone had this problem? I am lost as to how to fix it.

isn't there some type of switch in the back corner to shut the vehicle off during an accident or rollover? I know a lot of cars have these shutoffs in the rear. maybe its been jolted a bit

I am not sure but I will check. Do you know where it would be located in a Yaris? Thanks so much for that suggestion, I am truly at a loss.

I'm not even sure if the yaris has one, most modern cars do.
I believe there is also a main fuseable link In the battery connector that may be acting up. are you losing all power (like the key was turned off) or just engine power? could be the ground on the motor.
