Heated lights on but the driver's side seat not warming up. Bought this car second hand from a small auto dealer (buyacar.com in greensboro nc). But I did take my car to a Toyota dealer for repairs, they did not tell me that there's a recall about seats for this model and I did complain about the warming seat not working. So recall was about, wiring of seat. The dealership did not check because I don't want to be charged$500 for a repair that is part of a recall. Thank you for your help on this matter.

Seats rubbed on console. Strong electrical burning smell. Drivers side heated seats no longer operate. When in reverse and turning steering wheel loud squealing noise and thumping until placed in drive. Went to several dealerships who said they could find nothing wrong. Drivers side sun visor fell down and blocked ability to see when driving.

The head rest for the front seats on the Venza makes these seats the most uncomfortable I have ever sat in, let alone drive. I am only 5' 4" tall and the way the head rest lands, it pushes my head forward when I drive. I end up with both a head ache and a neck ache whenever I drive. It appears this vehicle was designed for someone taller, perhaps a man. The head rest needs to be redesigned for someone of my stature. I would gladly pay for another headrest if one was available. But the bottom line here is that once again the needs of women (shorter than men) are not what is driving the design. I expect more from all car manufacturers, it is time to recognize that women make up 51% of the population.
