The chassis is so corroded and full of rust it has got to a point of loosing the strength and integrity of the whole body. This is very worrisome specially if the car is involved in an accident where the front part chassis cannot resist the impact. This has to be recalled by Toyota or at least fixed in some way like they did with the Tacoma and Tundra.

When I put my foot on the brake pedal, the SUV starts to shake. I had my rotors resurfaced and it went away. Now it's back. I spoke with a certifiedtoyota mechanic. He told me that the trucks are known for having under sized rotor and brake pads and that is why that happens. I could buy a new rotors and it would still happen. Is what he told me. I would like to see a recall on all Toyota trucks and SUVS. Thank you

Vehicle was brought into shop with very hard to apply brakes. Vehicle had blown fuse for a.B.S. and repeatedly kept blowing fuse when installed. This design of brake system uses an electric motor and accumulator for power assist and without this working it has no power assist. There is no way anyone could stop this vehicle quickly in an emergency situation. I believe this is a very serious issue that needs to be addressed. I am an a.S.E. master certified technician.

The contact owns a 2007 Toyota Fj cruiser. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the instrument panel lighting and gauges began to fluctuate erratically as the vehicle suddenly stalled. The contact was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing where the technician advised that the ABS system would have to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure recurred. In addition, the instrument panel lighting would not illuminate and gauges would not provide a reading. The contact was able to restart the vehicle but the brakes would not respond. After shutting the engine off the vehicle could not be restarted. The contact inspected the vehicle and discovered that the battery was melted. The vehicle was towed to the dealer for diagnostic testing where the technician advised that the battery, wiring harness, alternator and the fuse box would have to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 75,000.
