WHILE DRIVING IN A CITY WARNINGS ON INSTRUMENT PANEL CAME ON: "HYBRID SYSTEM FAILED", "ALL WHEEL DRIVE FAILED", "TAKE CAR TO THE DEALER", AND THE CAR STOPPED. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. FOLLOWING DAY THE DEALER CALLED ME TO SAY THAT EVERYTHING IN THE CAR CHECKED OUT OK AND THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, I'M NOW VERY WEARY OF TAKING THE CAR ON A TRIP BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHEN IT MAY QUIT AGAIN. THE CAR JUST TURNED 10K MILES.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 17, 2020
WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET IN BALTIMORE, MD ON VACATION AT ABOUT 35 MPH HAVING JUST CONE AROUND A BLIND CURVE MY VEHICLE'S ENGINE SHUT OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART, GOT MULTIPLE MALFUNCTIONS ON THE DISPLAY. WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO THE VEHICLE BEING IN A LANE OF TRAFFIC FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AFTER IT SHUT OFF. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE NON-HYBRID HAD A RECALL BUT SINCE WE HAVE A HYBRID IT ONLY HAS A TSB SO IT IS NOT COVERED BY THE RECALL 20V012000 EVEN THOUGH IT SHOULD BE AS THE ENTIRE GASOLINE FUEL SYSTEM IS THE SAME. I LOOKED UP THE RECALL INFORMATION AND THE HAZARD DESCRIBED HAPPENED TO ME EXCEPT WE DIDN'T CRASH.

TOYATA ISSUED A RECALL FOR A FAULTY LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMP IN MAY BUT HAS NOT REPLACED IT IN MY CAR.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jul 6, 2020
VEHICLE STALLS OUT SEVERAL TIMES. HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALERSHIP BUT NO PROBLEM FOUND. WE WERE DRIVING THE VEHICLE MADE A TURN ONTO A MAJOR STREET DURING RUSH HOUR. IT STALLED OUT, WE JUST MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. CAR FINALLY GAVE OUT AND DID NOT START AGAIN. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS DUE TO POOR POWER WHILE DRIVING AND CAN ENDANGER PEOPLE IN THE CAR AS WELL AS SURROUNDING VEHICLES.

Fuel/propulsion system, Jun 25, 2020
TOYOTA ISSUED A RECALL NOTICE IN JANUARY ABOUT POSSIBLE FUEL PUMP PROBLEMS WHICH IF IT FAILED COULD CAUSE A CRASH. FIRST INDICATION WAS A FIX WOULD BE AVAILABLE IN MARCH. AS OF TODAY, NO FIX AND NO FIRM DATE WHEN A FIX WILL BE AVAILABLE.I'M CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS HIGHLANDER NOW THIS IS GOING ON 6 MONTHS WITH MY VEHICLE SITTING IN MY GARAGE. CALLS TO DEALERS ARE FUTILE SINCE THEY HAVEN'T BEEN ADVISED BY TOYOTA. AT THIS POINT I CONSIDER MY HIGHLANDER A LEMON. *TR
Fuel/propulsion system, Jun 1, 2020
I HAVE RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM TOYOTA FOR A LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMP ISSUE WHICH MAY STOP THE VEHICLE. IF THIS HAPPENS THE VEHICLE MAY STALL WHILE DRIVING AND COULD RISK A CRASH. NOTHING HAS HAPPENED SO FAR BUT WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. WE GOT THIS CAR FOR TOWING AND TOYOTA WILL NOT PROVIDE US WITH A COMPARABLE VEHICLE THAT WILL TOW. THE ETA ON THE REPAIR WAS TO BE ABOUT 6/1/2020 BUT TOYOTA WILL NOT PROVIDE A FIRM DATE FOR REPAIR. ALL OF OUR SUMMER VACATION PLANS ARE ON HOLD UNTIL WE GET THIS FIXED. *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED THE DEALER BUT NO CALL WAS RECEIVED SO THE CONTACT CALLED AND LEFT A VOICEMAIL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS THEN CALLED AND MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 30, 2020
I HAVE A 2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER. A FRIEND INFORMED ME OF THE RECALL THAT WAS IDENTIFIED BACK IN JANUARY 2020 REGARDING THE FAILING FUEL PUMPS AND RISK OF CRASH. TOYOTA NEVER SENT ME A LETTER WITHIN THE 60 DAYS. I'VE BEEN WAITING ON A SOLUTION EVER SINCE. ON APRIL 30 (TODAY), I FINALLY GOT A LETTER LABELED "INTERIM NOTICE". THE LETTER SAYS THEY ARE WORKING ON A SOLUTION. I HAVE FIVE CHILDREN AND IT IS NOT RIGHT THAT WE HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT ENDING UP IN A CRASH EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT. I FEEL THAT I HAVE BEEN VERY PATIENT WITH THE SITUATION. NO SOLUTION AFTER 4 MONTHS IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE. TOYOTA SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND APPROPRIATELY RECOMPENSE OWNERS IN SOME MANNER IN ADDITION TO REPLACING THE DEFECTIVE PART FREE OF CHARGE.

Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 27, 2020
WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW IN MAY, 2019. WITHIN A FEW WEEKS, WE NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH IT STALLING OUT MOMENTARILY WHEN TURNING AT INTERSECTIONS OR IDLING AT LIGHTS. WITHIN 4-5 SECONDS, YOU COULD FEEL IT FINALLY PICK UP FUEL AND GO. IT GIVES YOU A VERY SCARY FEELING TO THINK YOU CAN'T KEEP MOVING ALONG WITH THE TRAFFIC, ESPECIALLY WHEN OUR GRANDCHILDREN ARE IN THE BACK SEAT. WE RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE FUEL PUMP AND WE WOULD NEED TO LEAVE IT THERE FOR REPAIR. THEY PUT US IN A RENTAL DODGE DURANGO, WHICH IS FINE, BUT THAT'S NOT THE VEHICLE WE WANTED WHEN WE PURCHASED OUR HIGHLANDER. THIS WAS OVER A MONTH AGO AND WHEN WE CONTACT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT ARE JUST TOLD THAT THERE IS STILL NO FIX IN SIGHT. WE THINK IT'S BEEN LONG ENOUGH FOR SOMETHING TO HAVE BEEN DONE. OUR WARRANTY IS EXPIRING WHILE IT SETS ON THE DEALER'S LOT IN THE HOT FLORIDA SUNSHINE. IT WAS ALWAYS GARAGED WHILE IN OUR CARE.
Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 26, 2020
THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE ON JANUARY 13, 2020. IT IS NOW APRIL 26,2020 AND THERE IS NO REMEDY FOR THE ISSUES WHICH CAN RESULT IN A DEADLY CRASH. THE VEHICLE MAY STALL WHILE DRIVING AND THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK. THE VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A LOW PRESSURE FUEL PUMP WHICH MAY STOP OPERATING CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL AND BE UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED. IT IS RIDICULOUS AND UNACCEPTABLE THAT WE PURCHASED A BRAND NEW, SUPPOSEDLY SAFE CAR, THAT NOW IS A DEATH TRAP. TOYOTA HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE A REMEDY FOR THE DEFECT WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME.

Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 15, 2020
THERE HAS BEEN NO ACCIDENT HOWEVER I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE RECALL TO BE REMEDIED IN A TIMELY MANNER RECALL WAS APPARENT JAN 13,2020 THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF LIFE IF MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE OPERATING AT A HIGH LEGAL SPEED LIMIT AND SUDDENLY STOP BECAUSE OF AN INADEQUATE FUEL PUMP. THIS DELAY IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW AUTO AND IT SHOULD BE FULLY OPERATIONAL AS I RELY ON IT TO GET ME TO AND FROM WORK AND DAILY LIFE ACTIVITIES.
Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 2, 2020
THGE RECALL DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. IT IS DANGEROUS AND DRIVING THIS VEHICLE GREATLY INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH.IT HAS BEEN IN THIS CONDITION FOR QUITE SOME TIME, I AM AFRAID TO USE MY 2019 TOYOTA HIGHLANDE. TOYOTA CANNOT PROVIDE A DATE FOR A "FIX" THEY NEED TO BUY MY CAR BACK. APPRENTLY THIS CONDITION WAS ON GOING SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE.HOWEVER,WAS NOT DISCOVERED UNTIL SEVERAL MONTHS AGO.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 31, 2020

I WILL NEVER BUY A TOYOTA AGAIN. WE ARE STUCK WITH THIS CAR AND IT'S A TICKING TIME BOMB WITH AN OPEN RECALL WE WERE NOT INFORMED OF THAT IS VERY DANGEROUS, IT WENT INTO LOW ENGINE POWER AND STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY STREET AND ALMOST CAUSED ME A WRECK.

Other or unspecified, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 12, 2020
THERE HAS BEEN A RECALL ISSUED ON THIS VEHICLE FROM 13 JAN 2020. THERE IS NO REMEDY YET. THE ISSUE HAS TO DO WITH THE FUEL PUMP MALFUNCTIONING, WHICH CAN LEAD TO LOSS OF POWER AND INCREASED RISK OF ACCIDENTS. HAVING BEEN IN A VEHICLE BEFORE WITH LOSS OF POWER IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, I'M UNLIKELY TO WALK AWAY FROM THE SAME TYPE OF MALFUNCTION IF IT WERE TO HAPPEN AGAIN. I CAN'T DRIVE MY VEHICLE WITH ANY CONFIDENCE IT WILL BE SAFE. IT'S BEEN 2 MONTHS AND NO REMEDY IS YET AVAILABLE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 10, 2020
