“In june of 2018 I went to walker Toyota for an airbag recall that they had sent me notices on. While there I asked about a frame recall that several of my friends who have the same vehicle I have told me about. They told me there was no recall on my VIN number for that. So I thought I was in the clear. As we get into fall my friends ask me how my recall on the frame went? Did they spray the frame or replace it. I said they did neither. I told them walker told me there was no recall on that. They all said yes there was. …”
NHTSA complaint #11207674, filed 2019-05, 160,000 miles“On wednesday, february 7, I was driving our 2007 Toyota Sequoia 4x4 on a rural road that had had fresh snow the night before, but no sand or other road salt was laid down. It is a curvy and hilly road. I had driven on the road an hour earlier with no problems. At approximately 9am, I encountered a patch of ice where there was a curve in the road and my SUV that had brand new michelin tires on collided with a tree that was part of an island in the middle of the road. The tree was approximately 15 inches in diameter. …”
NHTSA complaint #11073193, filed 2018-02, 157,400 miles“The rear latch would not work during a camping trip in a remote area. The rear seats had been removed as per the owners manual prior to the trip. The rear portion of the vehicle was full of camping gear, food, water, and our first aide kit . I sprained my hand and back while first attempting repeated times to open the tailgate and then having to resort to lifting heavy equipment through the back window and also over the passenger seats. We took the vehicle to a Toyota dealer at out first opportunity. …”
NHTSA complaint #10714286, filed 2015-05, 155,170 miles“The rear portion of the vehicle frame that holds up the spare tire and has the brake proportioning valve attached to it is severely corroded and the spare tire is in danger of falling off the vehicle while it is in motion. Also the brake lines can be broken causing a loss of baking ability resulting in a vehicle crash.”
NHTSA complaint #10395372, filed 2011-04, 47,432 miles“The rear latch which controls the opening of the rear hatch broke. This part is made of plastic (perhaps costing 0.30), and it is sheltered from direct sun and wear and tear by being covered with a part of the hatch which is made of steel. The hatch when this part is broken cannot be opened. This means one cannot gain access to the spare tire or the rear of the vehicle. This part costs over $90, and the labor to repair is approximately $170. Combined this approaches $300 with tax. …”
