My wife was driving Interstate 81 from Tennessee to West Virginia at 70 mph when her right front tire blew out. Two months prior to this we were driving approximately 40 mph on a back road and the left front tire blew out. These are Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season 275/55 R20, purchased approximately in August 2020, with approximately 40,000 miles.
WE PARKED OUR CAR IN OUR GARAGE AT ABOUT 11:30 AM. I WENT TO THE GARAGE AROUND 4PM TO GET MY WALLET AND THE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. THERE WAS A SMALL AMOUNT OF GLASS IN THE CAR, AND MORE GLASS ON TOP. THE GLASS WAS CRACKED AND BOWED UPWARDS, LIKE IT HAD EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE. THERE WERE NO CRACKS IN THE GLASS PRIOR TO THIS, NOR WAS THE TEMPERATURE BELOW FREEZING THAT DAY. NOTHING COULD HAVE FALLEN ON THE ROOF IN THE GARAGE. I CAN'T THINK OF ANYTHING THAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED THAT MUCH DAMAGE TO THAT TYPE OF TEMPERED GLASS AND US NOT REALIZE IT. IT'S LIKE IT JUST BLEW UP FROM THE INSIDE, IVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT.

WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A CLEAR AND SUNNY DAY ON A HIGHWAY WITH FEW SURROUNDING VEHICLES, WHAT SEEMED LIKE EXPLOSION WAS FELT AND HEARD. A QUICK ASSESSMENT WAS MADE TO DETERMINE THAT THERE WAS NO ROAD DEBRIS, THE TIRES DID NOT BLOW OUT, AND THERE WAS NO ISSUE WITH ANY SURROUNDING CARS. WHILE THE DRIVER SOUGHT A SAFE PLACE TO PULL OVER, THE PASSENGER LOOKED AROUND THE VEHICLE TO FIND ALL WINDOWS IN TACT AND SLIGHTLY OPENED THE MOON SHADE, TO DISCOVER THAT THE SUNROOF WAS CRACKED. AFTER PULLING OVER, THE SUNROOF WAS INSPECTED FROM THE EXTERIOR AND THE GLASS WAS NOTICEABLY BOWED OUTWARD, SUGGESTING AN EXPLOSION VS. AN ARTICLE HITTING THE GLASS TO CAUSE THE BREAK. NUMEROUS ACCOUNTS OF SUNROOF EXPLOSIONS HAVE BEEN FOUND ONLINE.
TOYOTA COMPLAINT, DANGEROUS COMPUTER PROGRAM, CAN CAUSE DEATH. TOYOTA PROGRAMS THE CAR COMPUTER TO POST A "MAINTENANCE REQUIRED" SIGN TO POP UP ON THE DASH. IT HAS A "RED TRIANGLE" ALSO TO GET YOUR ATTENTION. THE SIGN STAYS ON CONSTANTLY UNTIL YOU TAKE YOUR VEHICLE INTO TOYOTA TO BE SERVICED. THIS SIGN IS VERY VERY DISTRACTING WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE YOU CAN NOT SEE YOUR SPEED THAT IS HIDDEN BY THE SIGN WHEN YOU TRY TO SET YOUR CRUISE CONTROL. I HAVE RUN OFF THE ROAD SEVERAL TIMES WHILE TRYING TO ADJUST MY CRUISE CONTROL AND COULD NOT SEE IT BECAUSE OF THE MAINTENANCE SIGN. IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SIGN AND TOYOTA SHOULD REMOVE IT FROM THE COMPUTER PROGRAM. I HOPE SOMEONE FILES A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST TOYOTA TO FORCE TOYOTA TO REMOVE THE MAINTENANCE REMINDER SIGN FROM THE COMPUTER. [XXX], [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB
WIRING HARNESS WAS CHEWED ON BY RODENT. TOYOTA WILL NOT PAY FOR FIXING BRAND NEW VEHICLE. FOUND SEVERAL OTHER COMPLAINTS ONLINE AFTER TOYOTA HAS MOVED TO "PLANT-BASED" MATERIALS FOR WIRING HARNESSES. HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH VEHICLE WITH ONLY 11K MILES.
MY WIFE FIRST NOTICED THE PROBLEM WITH OUR BRAND NEW TOYOTA SEQUOIA WHILE DRIVING. THE SLIP INDICATOR ICON AND THE SRS WARNING LIGHT ICON STAYS ON. SHE CALLED ME AT WORK AND I TOLD HER THAT SHE MIGHT HAVE PRESSED THE VSC BUTTON THAT CAUSED THIS PROBLEM. THE NEXT DAY I USED THE CAR AND DROVE MY DAUGHTER TO SCHOOL FOR ABOUT 8 MILES AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY OF THE LIGHTS IN THE DASHBOARD. THE DAY AFTER WHEN I WAS DRIVING WITH MY WIFE WE NOTICED THE SAME ICONS SHE WAS TELLING ME IN ADDITION TO THE BLINKING PASSENGER SEATBELT ICON EVEN IF SHE WAS WEARING HER SEATBELT ON. ALSO IT SHOWS THAT HER PASSENGER AIRBAG IS OFF. THESE PROBLEMS WITH THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS WOULD TURN OFF ONCE YOU RESTART THE CAR AND THEN IT WOULD GO BACK WHILE DRIVING. THERE ARE ALSO INSTANCES WHERE IT OCCUR THE MOMENT YOU START THE CAR. WE EVEN BROUGHT THE CAR TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT CHECKED BUT I FORGOT NOT TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE, AND WHEN I DID THE ICONS WASN'T LIT. WE TOLD THE SERVICE STAFF THAT'LL GO BACK THE NEXT DAY TO HAVE IT CHECK. WE THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A GLITCH AND WE DROVE IN THE HIGHWAY FOR 60MILES BACK AND FORTH AND SAW NO ICONS UNTIL WE'RE ABOUT TO REACH HOME THAT WE SAW THE FAMILIAR ICONS ONCE AGAIN. WE'RE BRINGING THE CAR TO TOYOTA SERVICE TOMORROW TO HAVE IT CHECKED. *TR
