Avalon Hybrid

  • miles
The Avalon hybrids covered only by warranty enhancement zkk are suffering the same dangers and fvmss noncompliance due to brake booster pump assembly failures as those Toyota covered by safety recalls (D0H & K0L). By excluding Avalon hybrids with defective brakes from the D0H and K0L safety recalls, Toyota is leaving the owners to helplessly experience life-threatening brake failure or malfunction before Toyota will provide the replacement brake components needed to make the vehicle safe. The law requires Toyota to prevent the life-threatening dangers of this brake defect before the failure occurs. Toyota's cost-cutting strategies are causing crashes and injuries. Injuries and crashes caused by the brake defect explained in this letter have occurred and been reported to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Toyota's decision to provide a reactionary, post-failure repair - instead of a preventative safety recall remedy - explains many of the crashes and injuries on NHTSA's safercar.gov website. Relevant complaints from safercar.gov include 10515182 and 11093611. Diagnostic trouble codes C1256, C1253, C1252, and C1391 - indicating dangers and noncompliance - are being stored in vehicles excluded from the past safety recalls. Toyota has long had knowledge of the unreasonable risks to safety and FMVSS noncompliance occurring in hybrids excluded from their safety recalls. Toyota gets real-time transmissions of dtcs and freeze frame data from hybrids with failed brakes through the techstream tool at its franchise dealerships.

Avalon Hybrid

My Avalon hybrid was "recalled" over 6 months ago for the Toyota safety sense package. Consumer reports says this is a very important safety feature so I purchased the safest possible car. But, the car still lacks this feature. When will I get this safety feature installed?
