2025 Toyota Highlander Other Problems

Your turn signal lever is sticking and becoming hard to move due to adhesive breaking down on the steering column, which can make it difficult to signal turns and may prevent the signal from automatically canceling after you turn. This is a safety concern because other drivers won't know your intentions. Additionally, your dashboard is peeling and leaving white powder residue. The dealership replaced the steering column covers but won't replace the turn signal switch itself, even though the adhesive failure is affecting how it works.

Your Highlander isn't responding when you press the accelerator pedal while stopped at traffic lights — it feels like the pedal isn't working at all. You've noticed this happen three separate times, and you've also experienced bucking or jerking sensations while driving. This could indicate an issue with the accelerator system, fuel delivery, or transmission response that should be diagnosed by a technician.
