The contact owns a 2010 Toyota Avalon. While driving unknown speeds, the contact's spouse noticed that the third brake light under the rear window failed to illuminate. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified and opened case number: 1704300738. The contact was referred to a local dealer to have the failure diagnosed. The dealer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 58,000. The VIN was not available.
Rear sunshade is stuck in the up position. It is difficult to see out of the back window. I know may Avalons have this same problem. The cost to fix it is far beyond reason.
Rear window shade would not retract. Driving at night it was difficult to see out rear window due to shade being stuck in raised position. Toyota wanted $1,500 repair it, but the parts were not available and per their employee, it had been back ordered three times. This indicated to him a manufacturing problem.
