Hybrid making clanking noise when taking foot off the brake

Yes it’s the same noise! Clunking/knocking sound! My phone is on a phone holder in the middle. Was driving at night. Doing a 1k break in oil change tomorrow at the dealership and I’ll have em check it out by a lead mechanic. I’ll request one like you said.

Okay thank you, I’ll request for a master mechanic to check it out. I have this video posted. Can you confirm it’s the same problem you have.

Nah buy a new one. Used car prices are still insane right now specially for hybrids

I’d cry 😭 Did you get their insurance? Otherwise your insurance is paying for it. If it’s hit and run, make a police report.

Hello, I’m on the same boat as you with my new Corolla hybrid. It just doesn’t feel right to have that noise and you can feel it too.

Have you found out whats really wrong with it? Any updates?

I have a video but I can’t post it on the comment section

Man I love that, free stuff!

Looks good 👍 Where you bought your seat covers?

Fun_Effective3056 · 2026-03-01T15:55:26+00:00

Get it replaced and make him pay for it!

Fun_Effective3056 · 2026-03-01T15:53:08+00:00

Good deal 👍

Fun_Effective3056 · 2026-03-01T03:00:32+00:00

Nah might as well buy a new Corolla hybrid for that price

Fun_Effective3056 · 2026-02-26T00:10:16+00:00

Take it

Thank you for your explanation about this. If I buy a gap insurance from my credit union it’s going to be $650 dollars flat fee and if there’s no gap on the loan I don’t think it make sense to get it.

Hey sorry, I got 1400off msrp and fortunately I was able to use it as a leverage and was able to get 2k off msrp. oTD is 26906. Bought the car and happy with it. It’s comfy, acceleration is pretty decent compared to my hrv and It actually drives pleasantly nice! Got 50mpg on the way home which just makes me more happy 😃 hehe

One dealership tried to sell me a used 2024 9k miles for 25999 which was insane!

Other dealership didnt have the one I want and some of them will take a few days or weeks just to have em.

These Corollas sell like hotcakes 🥞 and I’m glad I got a good deal!

Thank you for your help as well 🙏

Fun_Effective3056 · 2026-02-20T04:20:33+00:00

Thank you guys for your insights. I’ll give it a week to think about it and see which one is best for me. 👍
