2014 Toyota Sequoia problems

“The paint on my vehicle is peeling off- roof, around all windows and expanding. I went to a Toyota Dealership Part Counter to get touch-up paint and they told me that color had a paint recall. (Every time I wash the vehicle it gets worse.) I asked to speak with a service manager at Toyota, 11/2024 and was informed that the paint color (0070 Blizzard Pearl) had a recall for peeling off. Their recall solution is to bring the vehicle to a certified Toyota Collision center and they will repaint the vehicle affected by the recall. It's not a safety recall, but rather a CSP(Customer Support Program). Unfortunately, even if you service the vehicle at a dealership it is unlikely they would share the CSP information, only a safety recall information. Instead, a CSP is mailed to you. I contacted Toyota customer service and they mailed the CSP notice in 2020 to the previous owner's address. Toyota then extended the CSP expiration to 5/13/2024 on 12/11/2022, but failed to mail an additional extension of the CSP notice to me. Toyota did confirm they had my contact information during that timeframe. Toyota did send me other safety recalls from 12/11/2022 to 5/13/2024, so…”

“I live in the high rockies and travel daily for work. I have left my studded tires on year-round for 10 years. This is my 3rd time using General Grabber Arctic studded tires. The side wall is damaged on 2, the studs are missing in sporadic spots. They have only been used approx 18k and are worn. The Manufacture tread warranty is 75k. Tire rack wont honor the tread wear and also are requiring me to purchase new tires that have sidewall damage and they may reimburse me. I did purchase road hazard, although Tire Rack uses a 3rd party. The manufacturer told me that these tires are only to be used 43 degree or less temp, which on a summy winter day in the high Country it can be 70- neg 20 degrees. The also said once I stud the tires it voids their warranty, as well as they offered to reimburse me to replace my tires, but only will give me 25%. Between Tire Rack and General, they are not providing a solution and now I will have to drive on worn tires this winter, as I can not afford to replace out of pocket. They are not allowing a solution, in which it jeopardizes the safety of my family. It's also against the law in Colorado to drive on tires that the tread is…”

“THE CAR DOESN'T WANT TO START. ALL LIGHTS ARE ON THE DASHBOARD. THE CAR RUNS TERRIBLY AND STALLS AT TIMES. THE CODE STATES THE FUEL PUMP NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. FUEL PUMP HAS BEEN ON BACKORDER FOR 5 WEEKS. OVER 1300 REQUESTS FOR THE PART IN THIS AREA ALONE. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH OTHER SEQUOIAS AS WELL.”

“FRONT AND REAR PARKING ASSIST SONAR FAILED TO WORK. THE SONAR FAILED TO GO OFF BEFORE HITTING A 4 FOOT TALL PARKING POLE ON PASSENGER FRONT BUMPER. CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE FRONT BUMPER. TWO DAYS LATER A DIFFERENT DRIVER BACKED INTO A 5 FOOT TALL TRASH CAN ON BACK DRIVER BUMPER. AGAIN, THE SONAR DID NOT GO OFF. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP SAID THEY KNEW IT WAS FRUSTRATING, BUT THEIR BEST ADVICE WAS JUST TO DRIVE IT LIKE WE DIDN'T HAVE SONAR. WE EXPLAINED WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE FOR IT'S SAFETY DEVICES. HAVING SMALL CHILDREN, SONAR WAS A BIG PART OF OUR PURCHASE DECISION. WE JUST HAD TO KEEP TAKING IT BACK OVER AND OVER. AFTER TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP 8 TIMES TELLING THEM THE PARKING SONAR DOES NOT WORK, THE SENSORS FINALLY STOP WORKING AND WOULD NOT TURN ON. WE IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD SEE THE SONAR WHEN IT WAS MALFUNCTIONING. PRIOR TO THIS, IT WAS INCONSISTENT. THIS TIME, IT COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING.”
