“Vehicle noted to burn a tremendous amount of oil driving less than 1,200 miles. Contacted Toyota who indicated they did do an extension to fix the issue but I was too late. I never received the notification to learn they had an old address for me. I am now having to drive the vehicle cannot afford a new one and having to put oil in every 7-10 days.”

NHTSA complaint #11317882, filed 2020-03, 135,000 miles

“The dash has become very sticky. Not only is this bothersome as I can not lay anything on it without it sticking such as parking passes and such nor can I use a sin visor because part of it stuck to the dash but it is also a safety issue. The sticky melted dash causes a bad glare and you can't see very well out of the windshield.”

“Dashboard has become sticky will collect dust and debris, gotten so shiny that there is a glare and makes it hard to see while driving due to the reflection of the shine on the window. Bought 2014 and didn't have this issue didn't even get the warranty notice about the dash. This is our family car and afraid it's making our drives dangerous”

NHTSA complaint #11277931, filed 2019-11, 128,000 miles

“Due to the Toyota sticky dash problem caused by material degradation, I am experiencing a safety situation when sunlight produces a glare off the shiny dash surface. The glare is at its worst when driving into the sun. Upon calling Toyota, they stated that their voluntary warranty extension period has ended and there is nothing they can do for me.”

NHTSA complaint #11100261, filed 2018-06, 145,000 miles

“Excessive oil burning, I do have high mileage; odometer at oil change at hendrix Toyota on february 11, 2019 was 195,562. Today february 28, 2019 my odometer is at 196,162. I now have to add more oil to my car today, when only 17 days ago 5 quarts was added. I a afraid that I may not catch it in time to add oil, and the engine would lock up. The oil is really burning too fast.”
