The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
After being driven or idling for awhile, the car starts cutting out. It acts like it isn't getting gas. I have to pump the accelerator or push it to the floor. Hills especially cause it to stall. It was so bad, I had it towed. The scan showed a oxygen sensor problem. Had that replaced. It drove ok for awhile. It has resumed the stalling. When I read the recall, it sounded like my car would be included. The VIN # shows it not being on the list. Please verify because it cuts out, acting like it isn't getting fuel. The area I was in was a country road with no shoulders to pull off on. It also happened on a 4 lane highway. If it is not a recall, any suggestion will be appreciated. The exact days in September are an educated guess. Thank you.

The drivers side sun visor falls down whether in motion or stopped, it causes a blocked vision which can cause collisions.

The driver's side sun visor began to fail on June 13, 2015 where it would not stay in its intended positions, snug against the roof or windshield, but could be kept out of the way. On June 22, it not longer stayed in either fixed position but remained down, impairing my vision significantly. It had to be held up by hand until I could get home to remove it.

Vehicle has original headlights that were in it when I bought the car.the bulbs are burning the lens over the lights.I "do not" drive with the high beams on as the dealership tried to insinuate.no dumbass drives with the high beams on all the time. Toyota claims bulbs are an exclusion on the warranty.this is a factory defect and should be a recall item.they want to charge the purchaser to replace the bulbs which show evidence of of defect as well as the lens cover.I would like to see Toyota or the manufacturer of the bulb replace these items at no cost to the purchaser.even if they don't replace the lens cover at least replace the bulb with the proper bulb.car has always jerked from the time I purchased it.I thought it was the transmission but Toyota claims they didn't detect anything when I took it in for service for this issue.

Funny how Toyota says "Toyota will notify owners......" but yet I have not received any kind of correspondence. This is in regards to the labels recall.

- the contact stated that 2006 Toyota Highlander lost power when he used the vehicle for towing. Weather conditions varied, road conditions were primarily icy, gravel, and dirt. The only way he could get the vehicle to move was by un-hitching the trailer. The dealer told the contact that this was the way the vehicle was designed, and it will lose power to protect the vehicle if the load was too heavy. The vehicle lost power at 3,500 miles and at 17,500 miles. There were no warning signs before or after power loss. The vehicle started up and drove normally once the trailer was unhitched. Ak the consumer was told the problem could not be duplicated, the vehicle was performing as it was designed to do. Updated 01/29/07.
