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.
: the contact stated while the rear windows were down and the vehicle was driven at speeds above 60 mph, the vehicle shuttered. The manufacturer determined this was a normal condition for the vehicle. Updated 4/19/2006 -
: the contact stated since purchase of the vehicle the dashboard panel was black during the day. Shining a flash light on the dash is the only way the dashboard gauges can be seen. The gauges are not digital. The dealership determined the dashboard panel was not able to be read but this is how the vehicle was made. The dashboard worked properly at night. Updated 01/25/06.
I have just purchased a 2005 Toyota Highlander limited. I find that in the bright Florida sunshine, the instrument cluster (speedometer etc.) is so deeply recessed into the dash, they are dark and impossible to read -- especially with sun glasses. This is rather disconcerting when I cannot see/read the speedometer! I have reported this to Toyota but they have not responded to date.
