Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I lost power on overpass. Hybrid malfunction light, collision light, engine light all came on. Almost matching recall, but Toyota service told me it's a module and would cost 1200$ to fix. I told them no. Charged me 144$ and I erased code, with no problem since? Toyota does not care and I complained?”
NHTSA complaint #11378328, filed 2020-12, 30 miles“Approximately July 19th 2021 at 4 a.m. in the morning on 2021 going Southbound on 210 going towards San Bernardino we will see the flat tire at the very end since the flat tire the hybrid system says offline not available car stalled pulled over tire was blown out. This is the second time that the hybrid system has been reported offline or malfunction. Upon further review the records of the vehicle I have noticed that on January 18th 2021 the previous owner had a similar incident but the dealership in Hemet California failed attempt to repair it or document it correctly and falsified records”
