problem #3

Jun 012013

Highlander LX 3.5L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10,000 miles

When going through a puddle (on the street) on the right side of the vehicle, the A/C will shut off and the button flashes. Have had it looked at several times and two different dealers told me they didn't know what caused the problem and had no solution. Each time this happens, you have to turn the A/C off and back on to reset it.

I was driving with the AC on and it shut off twice that weekend and then again a few weeks later. Dealer says they don't know what is wrong since there is not an error code. Doesn't anyone know how to look at a car anymore without a computer???
