Toyota Highlander

""The windshield wiper fluid reservoir has leaked and not held water for the entire life of the car. The dealer wants to charge $500 to fix it, so we just live with it.""

"There is a musty smell in the car. We have not determined the location of the leak. It is probably in the sun roof."

""The drivers side car door doesnt seem to be aligned correctly as it is very noisy, wind noise, unlike the passenger side. I dont know if I would buy a Toyota Highlander again as I like a bench seat in the back and not the captain chairs. I am not happy with the black interior. However, I love the pearl blizzard white. I dont find the driver side, see all that comfortable. I would have liked to see power on the steering wheel to lift or pull out or pull in. The driver seat has some features for electronic control, but not enough. The passenger side seat is uncomfortable, does not perform as well as the driver side as there is less movement possible. It doesnt recline enough to stay comfortable. The seats in the car are hard. For a luxury car this is disappointing.""

"Bought new set of tires and had the car aligned because of misalignment---mostly poor road conditions (potholes)."

"Banging noise when driving slow over bumpy road"

"Front suspension makes a Bumpy knocking noise while driving slow over a bumpy road"

"Small tear in Passenger leather seat"

"Lift support on drivers side failing; hatch sometimes will not lift up."

"Previous repair/replacement of rear hatch openers and computer failed again (21 months). Had repaired and Toyota covered the parts under warranty - paid labor only."

"System delays for about 45 seconds when starting the car and does not hold previous settings. The right side of the front ventilation system blows warm air when the ac is on intemittently. When it happens there is no way to correct it. It will return back to working properly randomly"

""Refrigerant leak in rear passenger side summer of 2024 during a heat wave. No ac for a couple if weeks while waiting for parts. Replacing the pipes was cost prohibitive, so I had them plug the rear and just have front ac now, which seems adequate so far.""

""I purchased it used. Light come on and is not working for air conditioner. When turning the wheel, vehicle makes a noise. Was not aware of these issues when purchasing vehicle""

"The car has only 40000 miles and the dealer says that the front rotors and pads need to be replaced."

"had to turn down the rotors to eliminate the pulsation and slow response on the brakes. didn't understand why the rotors were damaged so soon."

"Brake shoes and rotors needed to be replaced."

"I was told by the technician at the dealership (Hendricks in Apex NC) that I needed to have my axel replaced because the casing for the bearings was broken and there was no grease. He also told me the axel and bearings were all one part and it needed to be replace. Cost was over $1200. Also the wheel bearings in 2 tires had to be replaced. Cost $ 800"

"Had to replace axle"

"water pump had to be replaced twice at about 70000 miles and again at about 75000 miles"

"Noticed paint bubble about 2 months ago. Contacted Toyota and they offered to fix/repaint at no cost"

""Recalled due to bad paint. We had cracking, peeling and missing paint. It took almost a year to resolve""

"corrosion of battery connection"

"The fuel gauge sending unit was sticking at 3/4 full. We were unsure how much fuel was in the tank. One day despite having a full tank of gas the gas gage said we were empty and we needed to fill the tank very soon. We had the sending unit replaced and havent had a problem since"

""Two shops told me the oil leaks out of the chain(?) and it would cost $7,000 to fix the gasket due to the labor. I did not get it fixed""

"same thing. Right after I was told about the oil link a month later I was told the transmission leaks."
