Example complaints

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

“Received a safety recall notice from Toyota to have the auxiliary light kit replaced due to it being a hazard. Brought the vehicle into the Toyota dealer 4 times over a 6 month period to have the replacement done, and yet it has still not been performed. We will continue to drive the vehicle since it is likely only a hazard to oncoming traffic more so than to ourselves, but we are upset that the Toyota dealer has not yet completed the replaced the hazardous lights in accordance with the recall notice. Note, the date of first incident is approximate. …”
