While I was driving, the steering wheel locked and I was not able to move the car. I put the car on pkg and it got locked too. Could not put in reverse or drive. Windows got locked too. The ABS system light up. A miracle that few minute before I exited a highway. A tow truck took the car and it has been in the Toyota dealer for the past week and they do not now what is wrong with the car

Every time I accelerate, break, turn, coming to a stop and going over a bump my door ajar chimes on the dash for the back door (hatch). Also, the dome lights come on when the chime and picture pops up that my rear gate is ajar. I believe this is a safety issue because I am not the only car with this exact same issue. This needs to be recalled since this potentially is a safety issue. This is a continual and ongoing issue.

Rear door actuator/sensor malfunctioning to read "door ajar" constantly while in motion about two months ago. Initially started only when the windows were down, and taking turns. Now its progressed to constantly setting off the safety features for the door ajar warning. This is a huge distraction while driving! having my local dealer address the issue tomorrow.

Sunroof exploded while driving 70 mph on interstate 44. Sound resembled gunshot. No extreme temperatures. No projectiles. Overreaction could have caused accident. Cause of noise unknown until able to pull over to roadside. If interior shield had been open, sharp glass particles would have showered over occupants.

In late 2012, Toyota issued a tsb related to the rear power lift gate. Instructions were to replace the hinges, motor unit, etc... if evidence of failure. Limitations were 3 yr 36,000 mile warranty. Explanations from the dealer were that the hinges for the back hatch were under manufactured for the weight of the door causing them to twist/warp and pull away from the door and/or frame. This also created undue stress on the motor assembly unit often times leading to failure. I had service performed in early 2013 as recommended by the tsb. I am currently experiencing the identical issues as stated above but worse. The door no longer operates by using the power lift feature on the key fob. The door is again warped causing the grinding and clicking noises when you open it manually. The motor has failed and I am afraid my actual door is warped. I have spoken to my dealer and have been told that the work was completed and that there was nothing else they could do for me. This in spite of the fact that the repairs have been proven to be less than effective. I do not feel this is a car mileage issue. It is simply a manufacturing error that has yet to be resolved. Toyota failed to issue a recall on this problem. After researching my problem I have found that there have been very large class action law suits related to this very issue. Many times these doors are not closing at all creating a potentially very dangerous safety issue.

Driver's side sun visor fails to close thereby blocking some forward vision.

- Marietta, GA, USA

Open-door warning keeps popping in the dash when driving, as well as the light inside inside the car (consistent with an open door). The problem started at first as the car would be turning at very low speed. It has gotten worse over the next 2 weeks and now happens almost anytime there is a bump in the road, or when cornering, as well as when hitting the brakes, even gently. I changed all the door sensors but it did not make any difference.

Received a phone call from street Toyota concerning a recall for my 2010 Highlander. They said that they needed 5 minutes to do a recall on the computer. I checked the recalls and didn't find anything. I think that they are up to something. I refused the appointment. Thanks

My name is [xxx]. I own a 2010 Highlander, as of today 5/16/12 the mileage 32,800. The reason for this letter, the left portion of my windshield is coming loose or the left passenger window is dysfunctional. This is the original Toyota Highlander windshield and passenger window. First, I noticed the sound of glass if it was loose, driving my daily route on I95 fredericksburg Virginia to quantico base Virginia. This portion of I95 is smoother, than most state roads. The glass sound is not a continuous sound, cause to roads different. In fact, the glass sound occurs only when it an dry day. I notice the road noise has increased. When it rains, I can not heard the glass sound, due to rain on the vehicle. I drive this Highlander daily to and from work. The local dealership will take a 3 minute ride and hear nothing, than I am forced to another dealership for service. Many years ago, I had the same problem with another vehicle, the internal and liner has to replaced. Has anyone else experienced this problem? information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

On Friday, April 22, 2011, we were traversing I-55 North of grenada, Mississippi. I was using cruise control traveling at 73 mph when, without any warning of anything wrong, we heard a loud noise like the whirring of helicopter blades overhead. I turned off the cruise control to let the car slow down because I didn't know what was happening; as my wife slid open the sun roof cover to look overhead. As we slowed down, the driver's side rear tire tread hit my side of the car and passed us up going down the interstate. I then felt the drag on the steering as I pulled off onto the shoulder of the highway and applied the brakes stopping the car. Prior to the helicopter sound, I never had any pulling or steering problems that could have been caused by a tire running on low tire pressure. I also never received a low tire alarm from my tire pressure alarm system. As an addition, I'll add that my five tires are inflated with nitrogen for better tire wear and life. I went to alexander Toyota in franklin, tn to purchase a new tire so I'd have a spare. I picked up the damaged tire off the interstate shoulder and my car insurance company know has the entire failed tire to examine. The failure was a Bridgestone; model "dueler hl-400"; dot: Ob7C.

Driver stopped, shifted to drive (forward) to get off the curb. When driver touched accelerator, the vehicle shot forward (seemed like 50 mph).

The left front of the Highlander sustained grille damage, left fender, headlight and running light, driver door and left mirror. Fender pushed back prevented driver door from being opened. Air bags did not deploy. The Highlander was purchased 1/4/2010. The accelerator recall was performed by the dealer in March 2010.
