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.

While reviewing the 2006 Toyota 4runner complaints I found that consumer complaint: ODI case number: 10179170 is actually a complaint for a 2006 Toyota rav4 and is misfiled and may want to be corrected. Thanks--- dave cizek
