Toyota Highlander Hybrid 2006 Tires Review #10298736

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Jan 05, 2010.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with TIRES . i own a 2006 toyota highlander limited hybrid, bought new, currently with 40,000 miles. this vehicle has gone through two sets of tires. the original tires, goodyear integrity tires, were under warranty for 50,000 miles, were replaced at 23,390 miles. at the time, i contacted both toyota and goodyear to advise them of the premature tire wear. toyota was dismissive, saying it was not their problem. goodyear honored their warranty and issued credit on a replacement set of goodyear integrity tires. the second set of tires was replaced on january 5, 2010 with only 15,579 miles on them. in the first replacement, my out-of-pocket costs were $445.62; recent costs were $547.12; total out-of-pocket costs for replacing prematurely worn goodyear tires: $992.74 i am bringing this matter to your attention for three reasons: 1) unless i am the only 2006 toyota highlander limited hybrid owner with this issue, i believe the evidence shows that the specified tires are inappropriate for the vehicle, and they may present a safety hazard, or at the very least, a great inconvenience to the owner; (2) i believe having to replace tires twice on a vehicle with 40,000 miles on it is both highly unusual and onerous; (3) goodyear may be overstating their tire mileage estimates, a warranty for a tire with 50,000 miles when in fact, it may only get half that if not less. i respectfully ask that you investigate this matter, in the interest of consumer safety and satisfaction. as for myself, i seek reimbursement from both toyota and goodyear for having to replace two sets of tires on a vehicle with only 40,000 miles on it. thank you in advance for your time and consideration. please don't hesitate to contact me should you require any additional information. *tr .Mileage was 40000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 15, 2009.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . my 2006 toyota highlander hybrid's brakes appear to have the same problem that is attributed to design fault in the brakes of the prius model. i bought the car used, last june 2009. the problem is that the brakes momentarily "fail" when i hit a pot hole or drive over a bumpy road -- in other words if i start braking and hit a bump, the car lurches forward for a second before continuing to slow down. (this is not antilock braking engaging -- i know what that feels like.) i have not seen this problem reported with any toyota models other than the prius, but the descriptions i read/hear in the media are exactly what i have experienced in my car. i have had the car road tested by my mechanic -- but i could not produce or simulate the conditions that lead to the problem. but that was a couple of months ago. i experience the problem weekly, if not daily -- and it is alarming! in a panic stop on a bumpy road, results could be disastrous. please advise those investigating prius brake problems that it may not just be a prius problem. please advise me if there is other action i can take to notify investigators or toyota. thanks *tw.Mileage was 36000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 01, 2009.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . i purchased a 2006 highlander hybrid limited in september 2009. fairly often when i apply the brakes at lower speeds, the suv surges forward like the brakes have released for a moment and then have reapplied. it is dangerous and very disconcerting in close traffic or when going around a corner or circle. although i have managed not to have a collision, i have come pretty close when driving with a reasonable distance from the car in front. i have described it to toyota, which denies there is any problem. i have had it serviced without any problem with the brakes being identified. this is a problem that is noted by many people on the internet who describe the exact problem with my model as well as other hybrids manufactured by toyota. it is a defect that could cause a serious accident if emergency braking is necessary, which at some point we all need to do to be safe on the road. please address this with toyota. *tr.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTEEW21A560.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 17, 2010.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC . we've owned the car for about a year and this problem has happened to my wife and i both while driving. while braking the brake pedal rises against your foot and the vehicle surges forward then as you apply more force the pedal goes down and the vehicle stops suddenly. it happens intermittently and the brake wear and fluid levels have always been fine, it seems to be a problem with the power assist to the brake maybe as the hybrid model engine starts because it seems to happen when braking after coasting so the engine would be off but as the brakes are applied about halfway through the normal stop you feel the brake pedal get hard and then normal again. during the brake pedal hardness the speed of the vehicle increases which reacts in a harder brake pedal pressure but by then the assist is back and the stop is sudden. this could cause both an accident from hitting someone during the loss of brake and from behind because of the sudden stop. *tr.Mileage was 67063 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on May 11, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM: INVERTER . my wife and i are owners of a 2006 toyota highlander hybrid and experienced the stall with no restart issue yesterday. i had noticed for 6mths - 1 year that on more than gentle acceleration the vehicle may pause (lose power) for 1-2 seconds before continuing. during this pause, a warning would be displayed along with alarm sound reporting "water temp" even though the water temp gauge is still holding in middle of range without moving. i had hoped that subsequent servicing would address until it would occur again at a later time. it occurred regularly enough to be a concern, but as the car proceeded a sec or two later the urgency was lost. in retrospect if it was known that this was a sign of possible significant future entire engine power loss, my concern to have this reported and addressed would have been higher. yesterday after displaying the same message and sound, the vehicle lost complete power and engine warning light came on, along with other warnings messages. we had barely any power (very slow walking pace at best) to move from stop to the side of the road. engine appeared to still be active to some degree when pushing accelerator but extremely minimal power provided to wheels. vehicle had to be towed to local dealership. report from toyota dealership that inverter failed and needs to be replaced for $7000+ and labor, etc. vehicle has approx 108,000 miles. *tr.Mileage was 108000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 10, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with EXTERIOR LIGHTING . the headlamp covers on my 2006 toyota highland hybrid show significant melting exactly where the day lights shine through the plastic. this is definitely a defect in the materials, as the lights cannot be turned off by the driver. the vehicle has just 75000 miles, & the lens covers & bulbs are the original equipment. the dealer refused to correct this without approval from toyota. toyota refuses to acknowledge that this is a defect and will not replace the lamps and/or the lens covers. i believe this is a safety hazard, as others have reported fires started by the overheated lenscovers. another hazard is that as the lenses further deteriorate, they will allow water and moisture to seep in, increasing the risk of an electrical short. although the warranty has expired, i feel that toyota should be admitting that this is a safety issue and a mfg defect, and replace the light units. instead, toyota representatives have repeatedly stated that they haven't heard of this problem before, and will not take any corrective action. *tr.Mileage was 75000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 13, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC . i have a toyota highlander hybrid 2006. when i am braking to a stop at less then 15mph i often feel the car "lurch" forward for an instant as if the brakes stopped working for an instant. i searched on the web and found forums where other owners of highlander hybrids reported similar issues. i think it is possible the braking switches from regenerative to hydraulic and there is a little pause or loss of performance for this instance which forces you to add more pressure to the brake pad to maintain smooth braking. toyota has not stated that this is something that happens on their hybrids but most of the other drivers have had my experience. i would like confirmation that this is an issue and a determination if this is a safety or design issue that needs to be acknowledged by nhtsa or toyota. *tr.Mileage was 30000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on May 28, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM: INVERTER . my 2006 toyota highlander hybrid had problems with the power inverter similar to those reported by others where, without any warning and while driving the car, there was a loud sound and the car would no longer move forward nor backwards although the engine was on. the vehicle dash turned on warning lights with "check vsc hybrid system" there was no previous warning of this problem, even though i had taken the car to regular maintenance in the dealer a month or two ago. no-one was hurt but the complete sudden lack of propulsion could potentially have led to serious accident. i was forced to tow the car to the dealer and had to get a rental car to continue on my regular day to day activities. after investigation i was informed that the power inverter needed to be replaced at a cost of over 7,000 for parts, plus extra costs for labor. this seems unreasonably high. i recommend this is investigated and toyota be asked to: 1. initiate a recall for this part. this is an extremely dangerous problem. don't wait until someone is injured or dies. 2. offer free replacement of this part to all toyota owners who have had this problem, including part, labor, towing and any rental car costs associated with the down time caused for this. 3. issue reimbursements for any customer who have had to suffer through this problem and paid for it from their own money. 4. extend the warranty on the hybrid related problems to at least 150,000 miles across all states - as it currently is by law in california. 5. offer a free and comprehensive evaluation of all hybrid systems components for everyone with a highlander hybrid that is over or near 100,000 miles, and replace any components that are close to failure. 6. train your service professionals to look for potential hybrid system failures as part of any regular maintenance schedule. this is a serious issue and i don't think toyota is handling it in a fair and reasonable way. updated 06/09/11 *tr.Mileage was 115000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on June 09, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with HYBRID PROPULSION SYSTEM: INVERTER . on june 9, 2011 at approximately 11:00pm central time, my family (wife, two daughters, one son and i) were driving our 2006 toyota highland hybrid down i65 about 20 miles nw of lafayette, indiana. we suddenly lost power and could not drive the car. we were going about 70mph and luckily there were no cars around us at the time, as we had extreme difficulty in steering the car and struggled to pull it off to the side of the road. it said something on the screen about check vsd and hybrid system. the engine continued to whirl, but we could not start car or do anything with it. we called a tow truck & waited in the dark on side of interstate 65 to wait for them to pick us up. it took about 45 minutes to get the tow truck there and for someone to come pick us up. we definitely felt lucky to get off of the highway without getting hurt as this area had no lights and was very dark (except for the red lights on the wind mills all around us). we went to a hotel in lafayette and the tow truck dropped the car off at the dealership. the next morning, the dealership sent a courtesy car to pick me up & take me over there. i spoke with the service department and they said they would evaluate the problem. i told him it might be the inverter, as my father owned a lexus rx400 hybrid and the inverter on his car failed and lexus gave him the part. the service department told me that he personally had never changed an inverter, so he did not think it was that. i rented a car and my family and i continued our trip to florida. a couple of days later, the toyota dealership called me and said they had to take the engine apart and it could be an expensive repair just to figure out what was wrong. he thought it might be rodent damage. days later he called back and said that it was in fact the inverter and that the repair would cost me $9,600.00. i went online & determined that many people with 2006 toyota highlanders hybrids with vin# similar to mine have had the same issue. *tr.Mileage was 119200 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Oct 01, 2011.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING . i was pulling into our driveway and when i pressed the accelerator, the car stopped and began to roll backwards. all of the warning lights came on along with a warning on the lcd panel that stated "check hybrid system" and "check vsc". it was towed to a toyota dealership. they indicated that the hybrid inverter and esu had failed and they replaced them. the vehicle still displayed several warnings and after searching for almost 1 week, they determined that the power steering esu was also bad although this was not the case prior to the hybrid failure. they said that the 12 volt battery also needed replacing although it was only 8 months old and was purchased at the dealership. when i asked how this could have happened, i was told that the vehicle must have been struck by lightning! october 1, 2011 in our state was a beautiful, clear day as it had been for a while. i suggested that the inverter and esu failure caused the power steering esu failure, not a phantom lightning strike. my vehicle is currently still at the dealership as i await their reply. hybrid components are covered under the extended hybrid warranty but the steering esu is not and will cost $1,000 to replace unless toyota will accept that the failure of the hybrid components could have caused a powerful electrical surge that damaged the power steering ecu as well as the 12 volt battery. *kb.Mileage was 92100 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 20, 2012.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . my hh has about 160,000 miles on it. i had received recall notice and called my local toyota dealership 3 to 5 times, each time was put over to "recall center", which equals voice mail with no return call. ever. last week when i was driving on the highway, my vehicle suddenly stopped running and was flashing error messages on dashboard, including check hybrid system. it ended up at the dealer as closest mechanic did not have computer system to check it. i asked the dealer to check and repair the recall(s) while they repaired the car. they ended up telling me that the issue, while related to a recall involving part of the inverter, that the parts required for the repair would cost $9000 over what the recall involved, but that, they would be so nice as to only charge me $4000 for the repair because the car had been serviced every 5000 miles up to 100,000 miles at a toyota dealership. in researching this problem, i see that thousands of 2006 toyota highlander hybrid owners have had same problem and, in fact, toyota acknowledged problem not only by changing the inverter in 2007 models, but also by doing this complete repair job that my vehicle needs for many, many owners for under $1000. the dealership has been inadequately responsive to these issues; i have now contacted toyota's "customer experience center" and am awaiting their response. *tr.Mileage was 165000 miles.

TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006 car safety problem was reported on Mar 30, 2014.TOYOTA HIGHLANDER HYBRID 2006, manufactured by Toyota Motor Corporation had a problem with STEERING . i just bought the car 2 weeks ago (3/17/14) and it has been driven for 500 miles without any incident. last night i parked in my usual spot across the road from my house. on the morning of sunday (3/30/14) i went to turn on my car and i notice a p/s red light came on and did a quick search on the internet and realized it was my power steering failing. did a quick test, confirmed that my steering wheel was difficult to turn. i did some further research on the internet and realize this is a common problem with highland hybrid and there was already a nhtsa action (pe06055) filed previously but had no conclusion. i want to make sure that this problem was brought up again, that it hasn't gone away, it is dangerous and i have seen numerous web blog about this: http://www.greenhybrid.com/discuss/f12/2006-hch-lost-power-steering-briefly-25044/ http://answers.edmunds.com/question-power-steering-failure-on-2006-highlander-hybrid-9455.aspx it is absurd that toyota refuse to do anything about a bad quality product they produce. if they don't want to recall, at least fix the one that actually experience the problem rather then have people shelling out their money (on top of what they already paid to purchase the car) to fix a problem that toyota created in the outset. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 88889 miles.
