Toyota Highlander

"The display sometimes blinks. Other times it goes completely off and in about a minute turns on and works again."

"Will not charge phone , cannot hook up Apple play without manual cord. I have not reported."

""Ongoing problem connecting phone to Bluetooth in car. Sporadically connects - one incoming can be answered using screen, a next call must be answered using handset.""

"Power rear hatch cylinders GROAN loudly when lifting."

"The lift gate struts make a lot of noise when the lift gate is opening or closing"

""Front struts started to leak and be replaced at 45000 miles, never ever had this problem with either of the 2 earlier Highlanders we owned!""

"Right front strut was replaced because it was leaking"

"The latch that causes the rear passenger seats to completely fold down broke."

"Every time I try to close the rear hatch I never know if it will close or not. There can be NOTHING near the back opening and it will refuse to close. I have to start the car to close it. And it will randomly decide to not open fully forcing me to reset the height adjustment."

""Experienced inconsistent alarms for same reason, during the warranty period. Escalating to the alarm would no turn off allowing entry to the vehicle. The dealer could not find the problem. Informed me they have notified Toyota engineering to work the problem. Never heard from toyota. finally took vehicle to another Toyota dealer and the said the alarm is bad and removed it.""

""Last year we repaired the power lock of the drivers side because it was not working intermittently. This year, the passengers side front and back doors have the same problem. It cost around 300 to repair the first lock. I complained with the service center of the dealer where I bought the Highlander and they told me it was a common problem. I have other older Toyota (Sequoia 2002) which I bought used and it has never been as problematic as this SUV that I bought new. Im very disappointed with all new vehicles. They too expensive for cheap plastic parts.""

"I didn't want a roof rack so the gutters where a rack would go have plastic strips in them. Those strips started blowing away when the car was new forcing me to buy more strips. The dealer "fixed" it twice but they still blow away and some are missing."

"The plastic trim around the drivers seat has broken"

"A spark plug blew out of cylinder head. Probably due to poor workmanship by whomever replaced them before we purchased the car from dealer."

""Very weak system compared to the 2018 Highlander we previously owned, very weak heating, hardly any cooling""

"Vibrations and grind noises requiring multiple visits to the dealership"

"Just before 100k miles, started leaking oil from the timing cover, required resealing the timing cover to fix the leak."
