AFTER THAT EXPERIENCE I TOOK THE TIME TO READ ABOUT AND THEN RESET THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM. NO SUCCESS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Feb 2020 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | JBL NAVIGATION SYSTEM DOES NOT PROVIDE VOICE GUIDANCE AND HAS RESULTED IN SEVERAL NEAR-MISS ACCIDENTS AS THE DRIVER IS FORCED TO GLANCE AT THE DISPLAY. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA AND JBL SOUND SYSTEM AND THE DEALERS SAY THEY ARE AWARE OF THE SAFETY PROBLEM BUT HAVE TO WAIT FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS HAS GONE ON OVER 1 YEAR SO A SOFTWARE UPDATE IS NOT COMING. PURCHASED VEHICLE IN JULY 2019 AND HAVE TAKEN TO TOYOTA DEALERS IN 3 DIFFERENT CITIES ALL WITH NO ADVICE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

| Jan 2020 | SEATS | THE 2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER LE SECOND ROW HEADRESTS LACK LOCKING HEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS! YES YOU HAVE JUST READ THIS CORRECTLY! THEY ARE NOT LIKE THE FRONT ROW LOCKING HEIGHT INCREMENTS. THEY DO NOT LOCK WHEN THEY ARE EVEN PUSHED ALL THE WAY DOWN! THE ONLY HEIGHT TO LOCK THEM AT IS WHEN THE HEADREST IS ABOUT 2' FROM THE CEILING! NOT ALL PEOPLE RIDING IN THE SECOND ROW ARE 6'4' TO USE SUCH AN EXTENDED ADJUSTMENT EFFECTIVELY. I HAVE CONTACTED TOYOTA AND THE CASE # IS 2001250569. WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR MOVING, THE HEADRESTS MOVE UP AND DOWN WITH EVEN RESTING YOUR HAD ON THE HEADREST, UNLESS IT IS IN THE LOCKED POSITION BY THE CEILING. NOTE: THE SECOND ROW HEADRESTS DO NOT HAVE LOCKING INCREMENTS LIKE THE FIRST ROW HEADRESTS. THEY ARE NOT SAFE FOR YOUNGER AND/ OR SHORTER PEOPLE. SUCH A DESIGN FLAW CAN ONLY COMPOUND NECK/HEAD INJURIES IN THE CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE HELP AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS DANGEROUS SITUATION! AS NO-ONE HAS SAT BACK THERE IN OUR CAR EARLIER, I WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS, OR I WOULD NEVER HAVE EVEN BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. | Crash: No Fire: No | 3,000 |
| Jan 2020 | ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC),ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED IN DEC 2019 AND THEN AGAIN IN JAN 2020. WHILE DRIVING ENGINE LOST POWER AND VEHICLE BEGAN LURCHING FORWARD AND BACK UNCONTROLLABLY. AFTER PULLING OVER ENGINE SHUT DOWN. THANKFULLY WE DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, ALSO SAID REDUCED ENGINE POWER AND TRACTION CONTROL OFF. FIRST TIME DEALER SAID IT WAS BAD GAS. SECOND TIME THEY TESTED FUEL PUMP AND IT WAS PRODUCING 5 PSI. WAY BELOW 50-60 PSI NORM. NOW OUR VEHICLE IS PARKED WAITING FOR TOYOTA TO DEVELOP A FIX FOR THEIR FUEL PUMP. NO IDEA HOW LONG THAT WILL TAKE. OUR CAR IS PART OF THE ALMOST 700,000 TOYOTA RECALLED. TOYOTA USED TO MEAN QUALITY, NOT SURE ANY MORE. | Crash: No Fire: No | 18,000 |
| Jan 2020 | AIR BAGS | TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT UPON ENTERING AN INTERSECTION, THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO APPLY THE BRAKES BUT MISSED THE PEDAL. THE CONTACT ENDED UP ROLLING INTO THE INTERSECTION AND WAS HIT BY TWO VEHICLES ON BOTH SIDES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON IMPACT. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. ONE OF THE OTHER DRIVERS HAD CLAIMED TO HAVE INJURED HER HAND BUT DID NOT RECEIVE AN MEDICAL ATTENTION AT THE SCENE. NO OTHER INJURIES WERE REPORTED.

THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 500. THE VIN WAS INVALID. | Crash: Yes Fire: No Injuries: 1 | 500 |
| Jan 2020 | ENGINE | MY 2019 HIGHLANDER (SE V6 WITH ONLY 490 MILES) STARTED HAVING HIGH IDLE RPM ISSUES AT ABOUT 300 MILES. AT STOP SIGNS/RED LIGHTS YOU REALLY HAVE TO KEEP YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD WHEN RELEASING THE BRAKE PEDAL. LET OFF THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE TAKES OFF (SAME THING IN REVERSE) MAKING DRIVING IT UNSAFE AND DANGEROUS. PULLING INTO OUR GARAGE IS NOT FUN. I SHOULD NOTE THAT THIS HIGH RPM ISSUE HAPPENS WHETHER THE START STOP IS ACTIVATED OR NOT ACTIVATED. TO MAKE MATTERS WORST, DRIVING ON SNOW COVERED ROADS IS A REAL PROBLEM WHEN BRAKING AT RED LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS AND SLOWING TO MAKE TURNS. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS ON CITY STREETS. I WILL BE TAKING THE SUV TO MY TOYOTA DEALER IN ENDICOTT, NY TO GET THIS DANGEROUS ISSUE RESOLVED BEFORE I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE HIGHLANDER WAS BUILT 11/19 AND I HAVE OWNED IT FOR A FEW WEEKS. I HOPE OTHER TOYOTA HIGHLANDER OWNERS DON'T HAVE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT MAKES THE VEHICLES VERY UNSAFE AND DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. | Crash: No Fire: No | 300 |
| Jan 2020 | POWER TRAIN,SERVICE BRAKES | WHEN TRYING TO COAST TO A STOP AT AROUND 4 MPH THE CAR WILL SLAM TO A STOP. DOES NOT ALWAYS DO THIS BUT IT'S SOMETIMES VERY HARD TO COME TO A SMOOTH STOP AS THE CARS BRAKING SYSTEM (REGENERATIVE BRAKING?) WILL KICK IN BY ITSELF. CAN BE DANGEROUS IF A CAR IS TAILING VERY CLOSE TO ME AS IT WILL SEEM LIKE I'M DRIVING UNPREDICTABLY. TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AT THE TIME. ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT IT IS MORE LIKELY TO DO THIS WHEN THE CAR IS STILL WARMING UP. | Crash: No Fire: No | 4,000 |
| Jan 2020 | STRUCTURE,UNKNOWN OR OTHER | OBNOXIOUS WIND NOISE!!! DEALER SERVICE MGR ACKNOWLEDGED IT WAS LOUD BUT SAID ALL ON HIS LOT WERE LOUD, MINE WAS MUCH LOUDER BUT TOLD IT WAS A DESIGN FLAW. IT IS. HUGE DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING ANYTHING OVER 30 MPH. IT'S LITERALLY WIND NOISE NOT ROAD NOISE. THEY WILL NOT EVEN TRY TO REPAIR IT ... TOO BAD YOU SPENT $50,000 JUST LIVE WITH IT. | Crash: No Fire: No | 4,200 |
| Jan 2020 | ENGINE,FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM | FUEL PUMP STOPS WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT HIGH SPEEDS, VEHICLE RIDES ROUGH INTERMITTENTLY THEN SHUTS DOWN. VEHICLE WILL NOT START UP AGAIN. | Crash: No Fire: No | 16,500 |
| Jan 2020 | UNKNOWN OR OTHER | AFTER STOPPING AT A RED LIGHT, WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN, I MADE A RIGHT TURN, MY 2019 HIGHLANDER STARTED TO SPUTTER, CHOPPY LIKE MOVEMENT AND ACTED LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL. I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR SOMEWHAT MORE FIRMLY AND IT FINALLY STARTED TO MOVE MORE NORMAL. I WAS ON A BUSY CITY STREET TURNING ONTO ANOTHER BUSY CITY STREET. | Crash: No Fire: No | 2,500 |
