Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“The fuel line that comes from the gas tank to the fuel line that goes to the engine ruptured at the connector and started leaking which could have blown up my car. Toyota has a serious issue with their fuel lines. There is a connector which joines the two fuel lines and that is where the leak occurred. From what I have seen now I will try to avoid buying a Toyota with this type of connector. The connector is exposed underneath the car, and it seems it can easily be broken. Toyota did not put any protection around this coupler which seems it can easily be broken and become a hazard. …”
