    After stopping at a red light, when light turned green, i made a right turn, my 2019 highlander started to sputter, choppy like movement and acted like it was going to stall. I pressed on the accelerator somewhat more firmly and it finally started to move more normal. I was on a busy city street turning onto another busy city street.

    Me and my family were leaving a hotel in tarrytown ny. I parked the car: toyota highlander 2019 outside, helped my wife and 21-month baby into the back seat and had to put something in the trunk but it was locked. In that moment the car was in park with the engine running; the ground was not steep at all: 5-10 degrees the most. I took out the key from ignition to go open the trunk with the button from the remote.…

    The entire voice guidance system is inoperative on my one week old 2019 highlander hybrid platinum. No audible voice or beeps with navigation assist, no phone assist,, no eyes-free assist, no driver announce to rear cabin voice, no entertainment system voice assist. This is a safety hazard eliminating hands free driving, and no navigation guidance. I was on unfamiliar roads in the dark of night, alone, unable to…

    Jbl navigation system does not provide voice guidance and has resulted in several near-miss accidents as the driver is forced to glance at the display. This is an ongoing problem with toyota and jbl sound system and the dealers say they are aware of the safety problem but have to wait for a software update. This has gone on over 1 year so a software update is not coming. Purchased vehicle in july 2019 and have taken…

    Obnoxious wind noise!!! Dealer service mgr acknowledged it was loud but said all on his lot were loud, mine was much louder but told it was a design flaw. It is. Huge distraction while driving anything over 30 mph. It's literally wind noise not road noise. They will not even try to repair it ... Too bad you spent $50,000 just live with it.

Tow weight and around 370 lbs. Of tough weight the suv had a hard time pulling away from stop lights without the tires breaking loose. When backing off of the road onto a flat surface with wet grass the suv lost all traction with the…

    The rear ac vents pump out perfumed air. We bought our vehicle in december so did not test drive with the ac on or we would never have bought the car. I am one of many who are sensitive to perfumes and the pollution in the car gives me a headache, makes me nauseous and worst of all makes me sleepy. I have taken the car to the dealership who replaced the air filter with no results. I have taken the issue up with…

    The gps system does not provide verbal instructions; only visual. This causes the driver to remove his/her eyes from the road and look frequently and monitor the screen. I have visited the dealership numerous times but there are unable to fix the issue. They acknowledge the issue and stated that toyota is working on a work around but no estimate is provided. I know at least 5 other highlanders in the tampa bay area…

    Ever since we purchased our highlander the navigation turn by turn voice works some times and most of the time it does not work. We thought we just did not set it up correctly. While driving to a concert in downtown cincinnati i narrowly this past saturday we nearly had a collision because i was looking at the navigation screen trying to figure out where i needed to turn. After that experience i took the time to…
