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.

About These NHTSA Complaints:
This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
When installing our brand new sunshine kids radian xtsl we found that just touching the metal buckle tightener on the super latch strap causes it to loosen. Our child can also reach her foot over the edge and loosen it. It is not safe to install in our vehicle (2006 4runner) with their new super latch adjuster that can very easily be loosened. (related vehicle information: Model year=2006, make=Toyota, model=4runner).
