2018 Toyota 4runner Other Problems

Your car's alarm went off unexpectedly while parked, and smoke began coming from the engine compartment. The engine repeatedly attempted to start on its own, your key fob stopped working, and the situation escalated to a full engine fire that required the fire department to extinguish it. The vehicle caught fire again while being towed and was completely destroyed. This appears to be a serious electrical or fuel system malfunction that caused uncontrolled engine cranking and ignition.

Your windshield developed a crack without any visible impact damage. While Toyota blamed a small surface indentation on the glass, a independent window repair specialist diagnosed it as a stress crack caused by the windshield's heating element. The repair will likely involve either resealing the heating element or replacing the windshield.

MOONROOF GLASS SHATTERED RANDOMLY WHILE WAITING AT THE RED LIGHT.

LEFT REAR WINDOW POPPED WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN

IMPERFECTIONS IN GLASS (ALL WINDOWS) WHICH CAUSE VISIBILITY PROBLEMS IN THE DAYTIME AND NIGHTTIME DRIVING. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO TOYOTA CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER. A TOYOTA INSPECTOR HAS INSPECTED THE GLASS AND TOYOTA REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL GLASS COMPANY'S AND AUTO DETAILERS LOOK AT THE GLASS AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT IT IS A FACTORY DEFECT.

DRIVING 30MPH ON A CITY STREET SOUNDED LIKE A GUN GOING OFF AND MY SUN ROOF GLASS EXPLODED. NO CARS IN FRONT OR IN THE OTHER LANES BECAUSE THE LIGHT HAD TURNED RED .NO CONSTRUCTION SITES NEAR BY . GLASS WAS PUSHED OUT OR UP NOT IN LIKE SOMETHING CAME DOWN THROUGH IT.

SUN ROOF SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY AT HOME. THE VEHICLE IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD.

VEHICLE HAS CONSTANT TRANSMITTED ENGINE VIBRATION IN STEERING WHEEL. VIBRATIONS ARE CAUSING TINGLING, NUMBNESS AND JOINT PAIN. VIBRATIONS ARE WORSE WITH INCREASED ENGINE RPM. VIBRATIONS HAVE BEEN CONSTANT SINCE CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW IN APRIL, 2018. CAR HAS 2400 MILES ON IT CURRENTLY, 5/23/18. LONG TRIP (900 MILES) WAS FIRST TIME THERE WAS TINGLING AND NUMBNESS WHICH WERE UNBEARABLE AT THE 450 MILE MARK AND THE RETURN TRIP WAS QUITE DISTRACTING AND UNCOMFORTABLE TO SAY THE LEAST. FOR 2 WEEKS AFTERWARDS, TINGLING AND NUMBNESS REMAINED. NOW AFTER APPROX. 3 WEEKS, IT TAKES ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING FOR THE TINGLING AND NUMBNESS TO RETURN NOW FEELING MILD JOINT PAIN AS WELL. VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN FOR REPAIR 3 TIMES SO FAR FOR THIS CONDITION AND THE DEALER AND TOYOTA REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE CONDITION! I HAVE ALREADY SCHEDULED THE 4TH. APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALER SO I CAN COMMENCE MY ARBITRATION/LEMON LAW CLAIM. I PURCHASED A VIBRATION ANALYZER AND THE READINGS OFF THE STEERING WHEEL FAR EXCEED SAFE RECOMMENDED VIBRATION LEVELS ESTABLISHED BY N.I.O.S.H,/O.S.H.A. BY A FACTOR OF AT LEAST 3 TO 4 TIMES! IF I KEEP DRIVING THIS VEHICLE IT WILL TURN INTO A PERSONAL INJURY LAWSUIT VS. A SIMPLE LEMON LAW CLAIM.

TOYOTA "ALL WEATHER FLOOR LINERS" ARE COLLAPSING AT THE SIDES AND BECOMING A TRIPPING HAZARD. TOYOTA PART NUMBER PT908-89160-02. WITHIN WEEK OF BUYING NEW CAR, THE FLOOR LINER ON PASSENGER SIDE WAS COLLAPSING ON THE SIDES. REPORTED TO DEALER. HE CHECKED WITH TOYOTA REP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. WE CONTACTED THE SALES MANAGER AT DEALERSHIP, HE BOUGHT USE NEW MATS. WITHIN SIX DAYS OF NEW MATS, THE SAME PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN, SEE PICTURE. SINCE TOYOTA HAS A HISTORY OF FLOOR MAT ISSUES, ONE WOULD THINK THIS WOULD BE A BE CONCERN TO THEM, APPARENTLY NOT.
