This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I have a new 2006 Toyota Corolla. It "clicks" and jerks when shifting from Park to Reverse or Drive to Reverse. The shifter sticks at times when shifting and the car sways when driving. I have had the car to Sierra Toyota in Lancaster five times with no success. Because I am a woman they don't take me seriously. The same is true with the Toyota Corporation. Actually, I get lies from my case worker at Toyota Corp. It seems to me that Toyota's reputation is going downhill fast from my experiences and that of others.

Menggunakan pekerja yang tidak beruniform (pelatih)-bernama Ihsan

Kesalahan berulang kali menyedut minyak enjin - bila didesak dengan pertanyaan, supervisor mengatakan minyak overload ? Betul ke?

Sy melihat depan mata sendiri, perbuatan yg meragukan

Ini ke cara syarikat kereta ternama melakukan servis?

Minyak juga bertitik merata dlm enjin

I purchased and had delivered a new 2023 Toyota Highlander on 12/02/22. We only received 1 smart key fob at time of delivery, and we were told we would receive second one from Toyota. We have not yet received on yet. Can you tell me when and how I will receive the second key fob due me? The VIN # is 5TDKDRBH1PS00293.

I replaced the clutch on my Toyota corolla mmt this year and less than 10k kilometers the car is doing the same thing of slipping into neutral while driving. The car will be in this mode and sometimes if I switch it off for about 30 minutes it will drive for about a kilometer and slip again into neutral. I've trusted toyota but this MMT is a joke

The ECM computer for a 2003 Rav4, 4 wheel drive costs $1995.00. That is price gouging for a vehicle that is 17 years old. The labor to replace the car is less than one hour of time. All Toyota does is reprogram the computer and then place it back into the car. That is highway robbery. It does not cost that much to reprogram that computer.

I have a 2000 Toyota Avalon and have lost the key. I am being told that a replacement key would cost several hundred dollars.
I cannot believe that a replacement ignition key cannot be obtained at a reasonable price. Until this happened I used to have a good opinion of Toyota. It should not be rocket science to replace a lost ignition key.

I have a Toyota Fortuner which i purchased one year ago new in November 2018.
I have had more regular services than required as that is in my nature and instead of an A service followed by a B service, all services are B, difference being an B service is including the oil filter.

My question, during a service in June 19, Toyota mechanic said that they will need to change one of the rear Shock Absorbers, which is within the warranty period of the car as it is starting to leak, they did change both units.
Again i have had a B service in November 19, and again are saying that my rear Shock Absorbers need to be changes, which i find very strange and concerning.
The Car has only completed 15, 000km and would expect the Shock Absorbers to last years not months, what is the problem, and what are Toyota doing to rectify this problem in the future as i can not keep changing these Shock Absorbers every few months.

Regards

Brought the Toyota Sienna in for a tire sensor replacement, i got charged $220, sensor is in but does not communicate with the main board that is showing a flat tire. They want to charge me $240 more for further investigation. I have been waiting for two hours for this This is outrageous. Very unhappy and frustrated

I took my car for service because the panels in my click radio and steering shifter would get foggy after they replaced my air conditioning. Although my car has only 28000 mikes and still under warranty they would not repair. They claim I spilled something on the clock with us high on the dash board Really. I need help

I lost one of my keys the other day and went to your service center in Carlstadt, New Jersey and was told that it would cost over 300 dollars to get a duplicate key made. Is this the normal cost for having a duplicate key made and how do you justify that cost when even a 40 inch flat screen TV cost less.

back doors won't open - this seems a common problem with any year model ... dealers expect us to have hundreds of dollars to simply begin diagnosing; I can't imagine what they expect anyone to pay to fix it! --- I know there's a cheap easy do it yourself way, so why won't toyota share the method ?

A lot of the teams leaders and some of the supervisors, curse are nasty to us the employees, i hope someone can have a talk with them and tell them to cool off, its getting pretty hard to deal with them,
