80000 miles, 3 new AC Blower fans (400 parts and labor), 3 Driver Door Actuators (800$ parts and labor each), soon to be 3 on passenger side, issue with passenger seat chiming like someone isn't wearing belt (dealer wants over 1000$), navigation/Bluetooth/headunit never worked correctly (2500)...

Im soon to sell my 2015 4Runner as it is the absolute worst vehicle I have had in terms of reliability. I noticed upon my last wash, that the frame has rust and the brackets supporting my radiator and heater are rusting. That being said, I never drive in snow, I never drive in salt or brackish...

sorry, been away from the world for a minute. no solutions found. Dealer did a software update, now its more sporadic. As per the usual dealer BS, no solutions, further problems, and now my warranty is gone.

His Tundra went through 3 alternators, couple starters, all 4 window motors, several CD players and a few other lesser issues. He's a meticulous owner with a vast understanding of vehicles. No mods like stereo or electric accessories. Long distance drives,

New, 36 miles on it, drive it 3 times and bought it with 110 on it. I thought with all the issues it may have been worked over by a dealer, but nothing on the title. I know title check means nothing as I've had a vehicle wrecked and fixed but nothing showed on the title but 'serviced at x shop'...

If the wipers are running, any speed, you can hear a sharp tinging noise from the column, behind the steering wheel but before the dashboard. I guess you could describe it as the pool/billiard balls striking in rhythm. Sometimes it's not so loud, almost like striking 2 nickels together. It could...

I'll begin by saying i love the 4runner. I miss some of the luxury features of prior cars, but I knew that going into it. This vehicle has to be the most problematic vehicle I have ever owned. The dealer can never replicate the issues. I have invested in a GoPro to record all the issues with the...

I feel you and the dealers are of no help. Village Toyota blames everything from me to the iPod/iPhone/Zune/iPad/MP3 Player. The most resolve they came up with is "the new vehicles are like cell phones, sometimes you just lose features with software updates" Its frustrating because for 6 months...

I have the same problem, and any other iProduct... Toyota dealers laugh it off and waste my time, tell me to bluetooth it, but its not possible with some iPods. Old iPods with 30 pin seem to work more inconsistantly. Software updates have made more problems than I initially started with. Check...

I've been to 2 dealers now. Neither will acknowledge my problems. I've shown them videos, but they come back with "well its working now and no codes are present so Toyota won't let us pull anything apart" This is Village Toyota and Sun Toyota. It started with my AC fan not blowing or not blowing...

I'm in a 15 SR5 with black/grey cloth seats. The black outer parts of the seats look fine, the grey is getting "soft" looking like a cotton ball, not pilling, but fuzzy like Velcro damage. I weigh 220, but I've seen much larger people in these vehicles. Im tall enough where I don't drag across...

Currently, the project is on hold due to far too many issues that cant be resolved/Toyota wont resolve. I cant justify investing anything in this car until it operates properly. ~Navigation unit issues (started a thread on this matter) ~In reverse, back up cam intermittently is just black or...

Thanks, Ive been busy with family stuff. I went to Sun. I mention that in the radio thread I started that you replied to. Sun was decent in my 1st visit. I told them about AC fan noise, they blamed it on leaves. I cleaned it before I went in and the noise is still there. Today, on the way from...

I was going to Village Toyota in Crystal River/Homosassa FL, but after a lengthy battle with the service dept. I refuse to go near that place. Everything was issued as my fault. After spending numerous trips and nearly 20 hours total waiting for BS fixes and to be repeatedly called a liar, I...

I will be vague, PM me if you would like. When I owned my Mini Cooper, I told some truths on the Mini forums and dealer/staff did not like it and I got booted. So, sorry in advance for not calling names, I like it here. Im on the Gulf Coast of FL. I'm seeking quality service department...
