Driving on interstate and heard an explosion and saw glass flying. Stopped and looked at top of car and sunroof had a large part of it missing. There were no overpasses nor did I see anything that would cause it. Toyota's statement when I took it there was, "it happens." I do not know how it would happen. It makes me think it was a manufacturing error. If I did not have the sunshade closed, I would have been covered in glass.

Air conditioning stopped working twice, first time repaired at my expense and now it's out again less than 2 months later. Repair was $1500 first time. Second continues to rattle from mirrors, front end and carrying rack. My right front fog light out and service said front end was very loose.

Toyota's claim of a 3,500 pound tow capacity is not true. I cannot tow a 3,000 pound house trailer legally with their oem 4-prong wiring harness. A 7-blade plug is required to pass state inspection and Toyota does not and will not provide this harness. False advertising and sucker promotion is the problem. Bait and switch!!! so sad. Very angry!

Side view mirrors on driver side and passenger side vibrate when traveling at any speed and vibrate/shake excessively traveling at highway speeds greater than 50mph. This reduces visibility and causes nausea.

On July 3, 2020 at 2:30pm I was parking the car into a parking space in a strip mall when I had my foot on the brake to stop the car but the car immediately accelerated and crashed into the parked car in front of me. With my foot still on the brake, I put the car into reverse, when the car accelerated again and jerked backwards, with my foot still on the brake, I put the car into drive and the car accelerated and crashed into the parked car in front on me again for the 2nd time. The air bags did not deploy. I waited for the owner of the parked vehicle, the police arrived on site and the car was towed to the dealership. Consumer stated both the dealer and manufacturer were notified.
