CarComplaints.com Notes: Although it has a stellar record in terms of vehicle problems, initially the 4th generation (2003 - 2009) 4Runner didn't earn our top "Seal of Awesome" rating because it received poor crash test ratings for rear impacts. However it's proven to have one of the lowest driver death rates out of all vehicles (not just SUVs), so we've bumped it back up to our top award.

Toyota 4runner, 2004, V6-sport edition during warranty period 2009 (purchased extended warranty), low tire pressure sensor light came on, repaired by Toyota dealership, after a year light returned. Check all tires at recommended pressure, light remains on. Had vehicle serviced for recall on floor mat issue on May 8, 2011 and asked tech to check on low tire pressure warning light, was told that all tires are properly inflated; however, light would not go away and a diagnostic check and cost is $90. Personally, I feel previous problem was never resolved...recurring issue.
