2019 Toyota 4RUNNER Fuel system Problems

“My issue is primarily with Toyota corporate and how they are handling the fuel pump recall. A brand new vehicle with less than 5000 miles has a recall for a random fuel pump failure, and Toyota does not have a 'remedy' available nor do they have a timeline for when the remedy may be available. They are requiring their customers to assume the risk of the stall or car wreck while they are trying to figure out the cheapest way to replace the fuel pumps in 700,000 vehicles. …”

“My 2019 Toyota 4Runner was inhabited by a rat that chewed the wiring harness in at least 3 different areas. The damage occurred between 8pm and 7am.

I used an air hose to evict it and had the car towed to dealership. The bill was just under $1000 to repair. …”

Anyhow the dealer couldn't replace it as I was going to pay out of pocket. …”

“Need to remedy this open recall of driving a vehicle that can shut off while driving at high speeds. I have been calling Toyota on a weekly basis asking for a remedy, but have not been provided an answer. How are people supposed to keep driving a vehicle that could just shut off and lose control?”
