2019 Toyota 4runner Other Problems

Your sunroof spontaneously shattered while you were driving with no impact or collision involved. The loud explosion caused you to jerk the steering wheel and nearly crash into a ditch. Glass debris covered you and the interior of your car, and you experienced ringing in your ears from the noise.

Your 4Runner rolled backward out of the driveway while parked, even though the transmission was in Park and the engine was off. This caused a crash. The Park gear or parking brake may not be holding the vehicle securely on an incline.

Your 4Runner's backup camera display freezes or goes blank when you shift into reverse, making it difficult to see behind your vehicle. This increases the risk of accidents when backing up. While Toyota has recalled this issue for 2020 and newer 4Runners, your 2019 model isn't included in that recall. Fixing the backup camera will likely require replacing the camera unit or its wiring harness.

BLUETOOTH IS NOT CORRECTLY WORKING WITH IPHONE 11PRO MAX OR ANY IPHONE OR ANY ANDRIOD. THE CONNECTION IS AWFUL, ROBOTIC AND STATIC SOUND! CANT USE THE BLUETOOTH AT ALL FOR CALLS. TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THERE IS NO REMEDY FOR THAT! Unacceptable!

I had been driving for roughly 4 hours when my sunroof exploded/shattered from the inside out. I heard a loud noise and then the sound of the outside air. I couldn't see a broken window. I pulled off of Hwy 202 (Phoenix metro area) onto the next exit and got out and stepped up on my running board and saw that their was a large hole in the center of my sunroof glass. There was no other damage that I could see to the roof. When the damage occurred I had no other traffic around me and I there was not an overpass in sight, behind or in front of me. My headliner was closed so no glass entered the cabin of the vehicle. There was no damage to the headliner. The claim has been reported to Toyota and also to my insurance company. My passenger was my 15 year old foster son. No one was injured in this event

BLUETOOTH IS NOT CORRECTLY WORKING WITH IPHONE 11PRO MAX

WITH UNDER 12,000 MILES ON MY BRAND NEW VEHICLE, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE WHOLE WINDSHIELD 4 TIMES NOW. EACH CRACK/CHIP HAS OCCURRED WITH VEHICLES GOING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY. WE HAVE CONTINUED TO CALL THE DEALERSHIP (WHERE WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) AND TOYOTA'S HEADQUARTERS ABOUT THE ISSUE OF THE BRITTLE/DELICATE WINDSHIELD ON THE 2019 4RUNNER. I HAVE RESEARCHED FORUMS TO SEE IF OTHER CONSUMERS WERE HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF CONCURRING ABOUT THE THIN WINDSHIELD. I HOPE THAT TOYOTA CAN POSSIBLY COME OUT WITH ANOTHER WINDSHIELD (PREFERABLY MORE DURABLE) OPTION FOR THE ONES WHO USE THE 4RUNNER ON RURAL ROADS.

BY DESIGN, WHICH TOYOTA MOTOR SALES USA INC. ACKNOWLEDGES, THE 2019 4RUNNER SR5 WINDSHIELD AND FRONT WINDOW DEFROST FUNCTIONS WITH EXTERNAL AIR ONLY, AND WILL NOT FUNCTION WITH RECIRCULATED VEHICLE CABIN AIR. THIS EXPOSES VEHICLE OCCUPANTS TO POTENTIALLY HAZARDOUS EXTERNAL AIR CONDITIONS DURING WINTER DRIVING. I'VE PERSONALLY BEEN EXPOSED TO THIS HEALTH HAZARD ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WHILE OPERATING THE 4RUNNER WINDSHIELD DEFROST HVAC IN INCLEMENT WEATHER: IN HEAVY FREEWAY TRAFFIC AND EXPOSED TO VEHICLE EXHAUST-LADEN EXTERNAL AIR, AND IN MOUNTAIN WINTER DRIVING AND EXPOSED TO EXTERNAL DIESEL EXHAUST FROM SNOW REMOVAL VEHICLES. AS AN ASTHMA SUFFERER SUCH EXPOSURE DURING NORMAL OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE IS A HEALTH RISK. ON AT LEAST ONE OCCASION I'VE EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT RESPIRATORY DISTRESS DUE TO THIS 2019 TOYOTA 4RUNNER DESIGN DEFECT. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT CONTINUED EXPOSURE AND RELATED HEALTH HAZARDS FOR ME AND OTHER VEHICLE OCCUPANTS WHILE OPERATING A INTEGRAL VEHICLE FEATURE, ONE THAT IS NECESSARY FOR SAFE DRIVING DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER CONDITIONS.
