“As I cruise on highway at 70 miles per hour, the hybrid traction battery starts to make mini rapid progressively loud explosions like the back of my rear seat is about to explode. To alleviate this I have to slow down to about 65 miles per hour. I have contacted Toyota and the dealerships but are unwilling to investigate the cause. This car is still under warranty.”

We are both 74 and never had rear passengers so we only discovered this in july,2015. Autonation agreed on the problem but will not fix it unless I pay them $1091.49. The rear door has not been in an accident. I am afraid that in an accident the rear passenger could not exit through this door.”
