Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Rear window shade would not retract. Driving at night it was difficult to see out rear window due to shade being stuck in raised position. Toyota wanted $1,500 repair it, but the parts were not available and per their employee, it had been back ordered three times. This indicated to him a manufacturing problem.”
NHTSA complaint #10794331, filed 2015-11, 57,900 miles“Rear sunshade is stuck in the up position. It is difficult to see out of the back window. I know may avalons have this same problem. The cost to fix it is far beyond reason.”
