2017 Toyota 4Runner owner complaints

I pulled up to a stop light and applied the brakes. I stopped but while I was sitting with the brakes applied, my 4runner started rolling forward. I had to push the brake peddle to the floor to a point I could barely reach to get it to stop again. I took it to the dealership and they agreed the brakes were not acting right. They could see on the computer that something was wrong as well. They said I would need a new master cylinder on the 4runner. The vehicle is only 2 1/2 months old with 2500 miles. When I picked up the vehicle, they said they talked with Toyota and it was only the 2nd case of this happening in the us. The morning it happened it was around 30 to 35 f outside. When the dealership tested it they said they applied the brakes to stop and it slowly started moving forward after

Re: complaint 11043597. Experienced complete loss of brakes. No warning light. Brakes were reset? After vehicle arrived at dealer. ECU did not download any warning codes. Based on this, Toyota will not repair/replace corresponding brake components and want me to drive the car. This was a complete brake loss with pedal to the floor and no brakes. Used parking brake and transmission to stop car. Checking the net, there are other 5th generation 4runners with similar brake failures and similar no action from Toyota

Brake failure. Approaching 4 way stop. Went to apply brakes, heard-felt a pop and pedal went to floor and lost all braking power. This is a new vehicle. Had to use parking brake and transmission to slow to stop. Fortunately only going 30mph........still rolled into center of 4 way intersection. Thank god no cars in front of me or there would have been an accident.

While driving at full speed on the freeway, another vehicle stopped suddenly in front of me. My brake pedal was soft and went down almost to the floor. Rapid pulsing of brakes, as would be expected with the ABS (antilock brake system), did not occur. I pulled around to the shoulder and barely managed to stop in time to avoid a collision, which was quite a frightening experience. I have had a few similar incidents since then, and have noticed that the brake pedal is a bit soft until pumping the pedal a few times. A local dealer diagnosed the problem and said the "ABS actuator assembly" has failed and needs to be replaced. The part itself costs >$2900, making this with labor a ~$3800 repair. (please see attached) 1. This part is not subject to normal wear and tear. 2. Although beyond the

In motion, from street turning into store parking lot, brakes faded completely to the floor. Lifted off and applied pedal to stop. No leaks, plenty of fluid. I will check with another dealer. There are quite a few cases of this on the t4r forums. Dealers can not duplicate. This is very dangerous to not have an answer for. Opinions are electrical antilock issues.? (there is no air in lines, no leaks and no codes)

When you apply the brakes with full force while driving; the brakes lock up for a short period of time on one side of the vehicle, causing the vehicle to swerve uncontrollably. This is extremely dangerous vehicle when the brakes are applied with hard force at speeds at around 35 MPH or higher. Luckily I am a very experienced driver and car handler and was able to react quick enough to control the vehicle one time when I had to apply the brakes hard at highway speeds when a car swerved in front of me suddenly. I have since done many tests on this vehicle myself and concluded that one wheel on the left side of the vehicle is locking up which is causing the vehicle to quickly and violently swerve. The test I did was to apply the brakes very hard and suddenly while driving on a flat grassy fie

I was driving on the highway with no one around me. Temperature was around 60 degrees at 7:15am. My sunroof glass shattered as if it was a gunshot and the glass was pointed outward. It terrified my special needs child and myself and took a while for her to calm down. I drove it home later and opened up the sunroof to shattered glass everywhere. I have looked online and it is a known defect. I have a dash cam as well.

I have owned my vehicle since 2017 and since then I have had to change the locks over 10 times. this has been ongoing since purchasing my car. Some were originally covered with the warranty but since it expired, i have paid dealerships out of pocket. I have a lock give out almost yearly. Right now my car has 3 of the 4 door locks not working and the 4th just started acting up as well. I have checked for recalls because it doesn't make sense that they would go out yearly and the dealerships have even told me there should be recalls because my year 4runner always has lock issues. my safety concern is my locks either have to stay unlocked or i risk locking my car completely and it not opening because the key will not unlock it. I have tried contacting Toyota and they have stated they cannot h

Tl* the contact owns a 2017 Toyota 4runner. While driving at unknown speeds, the driver's seat moved and made an abnormally loud noise. The vehicle was taken to avondale Toyota (10005 west papago fwy, avondale, az 85323, (844) 610-894) where it was diagnosed that the driver's seat frame//support needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The vehicle was then taken to anderson Toyota (6510 showplace ave, lake havasu city, az 86404, (928) 764-2886), but was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer advised the contact to adjust the seat. The manufacturer was notified and provided case number: 1806083099, but no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was 5,000. *tt updated 9/25/18

2017 Toyota 4 runner SR5 While driving on the highway the vehicle stopped apparently the fuel pump stopped working and could not get going anymore. I had a mechanic come to the house with a PC and test it. He told me that’s a change that will need to take place in a garage. Luckily I was able to stop on the side and paid someone to bring car home

Took my vehicle in for a recall something to add support to maybe grill of the vehicle on 21st of april. Sat in waiting room for 2 hours, service guy, brandon(very nice guy and this is not his fault), came out and told me they would need to price me a new grill, because one I have don't support the recall. I refuse to pay for something that I should not have to, when there is a recall. When you get a recall it's to fix the problem, therefore if my car needs a new grill to support what they need to do, then dealership should pay for whatever it is to fix the recall. I purchased this vehicle as is from the dealership.

Tl* the contact owns a 2017 Toyota 4runner. While driving approximately 35 MPH, the curtain air bags located at the front driver and passenger doors, the rear curtain air bags located at the rear driver's door, and the rear passenger door air bags abruptly deployed. The contact lost control of the vehicle and crashed into the median. The front passenger side tire and wheel were damaged. The contact received burns on the left arm due to the deployment. Medical attention was not received. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an unknown dealer for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was approximately 7,800.

On 7/22/2019, our 4runner rear-ended another vehicle on the freeway. Speed at the time of impact was approximately 55mpg after hard braking from approximately 65mph. None of the 4runner's airbags deployed. The entire front end is destroyed. See photos.

A deer ran out in front of me, driving 50 MPH. Passenger side hit, all 8 airbags deployed. Passenger side airbag under steering wheel, cut up my legs horribly, very swollen, refused hospital due to covid 19 fear. The airbags cut up my left arm and my daughter's right arm(she was passenger). Very happy that we were safe, but the serious cuts on my body seemed quite severe for the hit which was on passenger side and by a deer.

Front struts are leaking which are causing the vehicle to drive inconsistently. The struts should not have to be replaced this soon when the vehicle is being used on normal condition roads. After researching, it appears this is a manufacturer, Toyota, issue, that is known, and Toyota should be issuing a recall for replacement due to the number of incidences that are known on the 4-Runner.

Peeling steering wheel on it's own. No outside influence. No rings, sunscreen, lotion or cleaners used. Causes loss of grip of wheel and continued deterioration alters steeering wheel. There is a change.org petition.

Car stalled on the free way while driving . The dash board had a warning to check engine at dealer. The car was towed to the dealership (tansky sawmill, dublin oh). They reset the car and it was returned to us. According to dealership, diagnostics detected two error codes reported a) p0a0f, b) p3190 currently do not feel safe driving on the free way

Truck shimmy's whenever I drive over 50mph. Front tires are damaged from cupping. Maintenance has been done as well as tire alignment and rotation. Dealership keeps saying nothing is wrong with it.
