I WAS DRIVING BACK FROM THIS WEEKEND ON A HIGHWAY AND I NOTICED A THUMPING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND THEN I NOTICED AN ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND INSTINCTIVELY I KNEW THAT WAS A BAD SIGN FOR ALL SIX OF US MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS. SO I IMMEDIATELY EXITED THE NEAREST EXIT RAMP AND THAT'S WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED AND I COULDN'T MOVE ANY LONGER. WE CALLED OUR INSURANCE COMPANY FOR TOWING AND THE COPS TO STEER CLEAR OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC SINCE WE'RE ON THE SECOND LANE ON THE EXIT RAMP. I THANK GOD THAT NOTHING HAPPENED TO US BUT IT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN TO MY VEHICLE WITH ONLY 93,000 MILES WITH REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND A CLEAN DRIVING RECORD.

THIS IS THE SECOND COMPLAINT I HAVE FILED WITH TOYOTA REGARDING THE REAR VIEW VENTING WINDOW: I AM WRITING A SECOND EMAIL REGRINDING MY SERIOUS CONCERN AND DISSATISFACTION REGARDING THE RESOLUTION OF THE LEFT REAR VENTING WINDOW ON MY 2007 SIENNA COMPLETELY DISLODGING FROM THE SEAL AND FALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING WITH PASSENGERS IN THE REAR OF THE CAR WHILE MOVING. I HAVE KNOW SPOKEN WITH THE DEALERSHIP (LITTLETON TOYOTA) WHO DECLINED AND RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DEFECT AND REPEATEDLY INFORMED ME IT WAS TOYOTA INC. WHO WAS RESPONSIBLE. I WAS INITIALLY TOLD MY TWO DIFFERENT SERVICE DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL WHO SAID THE REPAIR WOULD BE "UNDER $30.00". I WAS THEN TOLD BY A 3 INDIVIDUAL, CASSANDRA, AFTER I DROPPED THE CAR OFF TO GET FIXED , THAT NOW IT WOULD COST OVER $850.00 BECAUSE THE ENTIRE WINDOW NEEDED TO BE FIXED. I CALLED TOYOTA INC. AND SPOKE WITH CORTNEY WHO PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT I WAS OUT OF LUCK AND WOULD HAVE TO ASSUME COMPLETE RESPONSIBILITY. I ASKED TO SPEAK WITH A MANAGER AND WAS CALLED BY MARIA, WHO AGAIN TOLD ME THAT I AS THE CUSTOMER WOULD HAVE TO ASSUME A SIGNIFICANT PORTION OF THE COST GIVEN THE WARRANTY OF THREE YEARS HAD PASSED. NEVER MIND THE SERIOUS POTENTIAL RISK FOR INJURY, WHICH NEITHER REPRESENTATIVE WOULD TRUTHFULLY ANSWER. I HAVE NOW WRITTEN THE NHTSB AND MASSACHUSETTS ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE TO FILE COMPLAINTS. I WILL BE FILING A SMALL CLAIMS CASE TO SEEK REIMBURSEMENT FOR THE COST OF THIS WINDOW AND RESOLUTION REGARDING THE RIGHT REAR VENTING WINDOW AS WELL. THIS IS SOLELY THE RESPONSIBILITY OF TOYOTA INC. AND THEY SHOULD BE ACTIVELY TRYING TO REASSURE ME IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN AND APPRECIATIVE THAT NO ONE WAS INJURED. I AM RESOLUTE IN THIS MATTER AND WILL NOT REST UNTIL A RESPONSIBLE RESOLUTION IS REACHED. PICTURES PROVIDED.

I LEARNED OF A RECALL FOR MY CAR'S DASHBOARD. IT IS CRACKED. IT IS A 2007 THAT I BOUGHT FROM DICK DYER TOYOTA IN COLUMBIA, SC IN 2011. THEY NOW TELL ME THE RECALL HAS EXPIRED. BUT THIS MEANS THEY SOLD ME A CAR WITHOUT FIXING A KNOWN RECALL ISSUE. IT WAS NOT CRACKED IN 2011 BUT HAS BEEN CRACKED SINCE AROUND 2015 OR 2016. I AM TAKING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO FIX THREE OTHER RECALL ISSUES. ALSO, A TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR WAS BROKEN WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR BUT THE DEALERSHIP DENIED THE PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD IT FIXED ON MY OWN. NOW ANOTHER HAS MALFUNCTIONED SO THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. ALSO, THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF ALL THE TIME. I DON'T KNOW TO WHICH AIRBAG IT PERTAINS.
