a toyota steering wheel is extremely sturdy i have never heard
of a toyota steering wheel malfunction but if you will reveal the
details of the accident i will try to guess how the steering wheel
could have caused it.

Yea, that's a red flag when he doesn't say what supposed to have
happened to his steering wheel. And then he goes on to solicit info
about ANY malfunction on ANY Toyota.

Usually a car accident is caused by a nut behind the wheel. The nut is
not put in the driver seat by Toyota!

How can a steering wheel malfunction?  Did it suddenly turn from round
to square causing you to wreck the car  then turn back again after you
wrecked the car?

The NHTSA shows that the only recalls for the 2006 Corolla are for
lighting problems.  OTOH the 2004-2006 Toyota Prius has been recalled
for a steering problem where parts could loosen or crack.

"Malfunction" is a really vague term, and I'd expect something a lot
more specific from anybody who was actually in the car when the crash
occurred.

Exactly what happened?  Did the steering shaft or a tie rod snap off?
The power steering pump suddenly fail?  The steering wheel come off?
Or was there an adverse reaction to C2H5OH, which is known to be highly
incompatible with steering and braking systems.

ROTFL!

There is a long standing bulletin for all late model homo sapiens for
the issue you mention.  When encountering those conditions a recall is
likely: ashes to ashes, dust to dust.
