    Neutral Safety Switch

    So last month my 4Runner had hard shifting using the gear selector over a period of time. It was barely noticeable. While my wife was driving, she said it was hard to use the pedals and her check engine and TRAC light came on. She drove straight to Toyota who later confirmed it was the...

    Rattle noise underneath vehicle

    I had the same issue as well and i took it to the dealer and they said they would take a look at it. They said some heat shields really don't have to be attached if they fall off, but the one we are talking about is one that is important. The mechanic just essentially added a larger washer and...

    Since the stay at home orders have been enacted pretty much everywhere, I've had a lot of time to think and ponder. Is the 4Runner the best vehicle in the world? I mean this in terms of reputation, quality, capability, craftsmanship, looks, reliability, and price. I'd venture to go as far as...

    The result of a thousand dollar brake job at 23K miles

    I also live in NE Ohio. I have had good luck at two different Toyota Dealerships I've been too here. What is the name of the Toyota dealership you went to, to be on the lookout?

    Airbag recall question

    I don't know what had to be done, but it took no more than 90 minutes while i waited to purchase my used 14 Limited. My Toyota dealership told me they wouldn't let me leave the lot without the recall being completed.

    Just Wonderin', Who has the highest mileage?

    In November of 2017, my supervisor sold her 10 4runner SR5 with 280k miles on it. She bought it in November of 10. Original owner, all highway miles, dealer maintained. During an oil change, a salesman talked her into a RAV4 limited used with 35k. She has nothing but good things to say about...
