NHTSA complaint 11756907. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

I believe the windshield is defective. I have had multiple chips from small debris but it leaves a surprisingly large crack. These were from interstate driving. I had four different glass crack claims in the last two years. These cracks are deep and concerning that they could penetrate through the windshield.

NHTSA complaint 11756617. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

The transmission is failing after about 65,000 miles (7 years from first use). It can be inspected upon request. My safety is at risk in that the transmission is steadily getting worse and could fail at any time or any speed. The transmission failure was diagnosed and confirmed by a local Toyota dealer. There are no warning lights. A high-pitched whine is heard while driving which gets higher with faster vehicle speed.

Transmission is failing in car. Has started whining, consistent with other complaints I have seen regarding the transmissions in these vehicles.

NHTSA complaint 11752091. Filed by an owner and not verified by NHTSA or by us.

My check engine and ICS sensor lights came on. My diagnostic shows a failing fuel pump exactly as recall 20TA02. My car is not on the recall list but is presenting the same issue. I was driving on the road when this occurred and my car started stalling and jerking on the road. I had to quickly and safely exit the road and go back home.
