2009 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER Unknown Or Other Problems

THE SUNROOF, IN IT'S ENTIRETY FLEW OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. THE SUNROOF WAS OPEN, SO WE CLOSED IT AND IT BEGAN MAKING A WEIRD NOISE, SO WE BEGAN TO RE-OPEN THE ROOF, AND THE ENTIRE PIECE OF GLASS FLEW OFF. WE WERE ON AN INTERSTATE, GOING ABOUT 70MPH, AND HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH THE SUNROOF UNTIL IT FLEW OFF. THANKFULLY, WE DID NOT SEE IT EFFECT ANY CARS AND LANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE.

THE CAR WAS PURCHASED FROM KOOL TOYOTA, GRAND RAPIDS, MI BACK 19 NOV 2009. THEN IT WAS GIVEN BACK TO DEALER IN MARCH 2010. MOTION SICKNESS / MIND NUMBNESS, THOUGHT IMPAIRMENTS, SPEECH IMPAIRMENTS, ETC.. CAR WAS CHECKED BY LOCAL DEALER AS WELL SHOWING NO SIGNS OF ANY ISSUES. LOST I THINK AROUND $10,000 DOLLARS TO RETURN THE CAR BACK TO DEALER. DRIVER AND PASSENGERS THROUGH THE CAR WERE AFFECTED. THE CAR WAS SET IN THE GARAGE UNUSED MOST OF THE TIME BETWEEN PURCHASE AND RETURN TO DEALER. WENT THROUGH TOYOTA DEALER DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS. I STILL HAVE RECORDS. DID NOT HAVE TIME AND/OR UNDERSTANDING WHO ELSE TO CONTACT BACK IN 2010.

REAR DOOR MOTOR LIFT NOT WORKING

AUGUST 6, 2015 I WAS DRIVING NORTHBOUND ON HWY 45. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES ON THE ROAD MY 2009 TOYOTA HIGHLANDER BEGAN TO SMOKE, THE OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. WITHIN A FEW MINUTES, BLACK SMOKE WAS POURING OUT FROM UNDERNEATH THE HOOD. WITHIN ANOTHER MINUTE OR TWO THE SUV WAS ON FIRE AND SOON THE FRONT HALF WAS COMPLETELY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I THOUGHT IT WOULD EXPLODE. TWO MILWAUKEE FIRE DEPARTMENT TEAMS ARRIVED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS HURT AND MY CHILDREN WERE NOT IN THE CAR. ACCIDENT REPORT BMZ14XN WAS FILED WITH MILWAUKEE COUNTY. PRIOR TO THE FIRE THAT TOTALED THE HIGHLANDER, AN EMERGENCY REPAIR WAS MADE TO THE HIGHLANDER ON NOVEMBER 3, 2014. THAT NIGHT THE ENGINE BEGAN TO MAKE A STRANGE NOISE AND THE OIL WARNING LIGHT WENT ON. I PULLED...

WHEN I LOCK THE CAR THE ALARM WILL GO OFF FOR NO REASON AT ALL. IT DOES THIS ALL THE TIME. IT IS VERY IRRITATING.

THIS VEHICLE HAS AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, MOST MECHANIC SHOPS I TOOK IT WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND OUT THE NATURE OF THE PROBLEM. I'VE CHANGED THE BATTERY TWICE AND STILL EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. AT THE HIGH WAY I NOTICED THE THAT THE TEMPERATURE OF THE ENGINE GETS HIGH, WHICH OBLIGED TO DRIVE IN A MUCH LOWER SPEED WITH THE FLASHERS ON WHICH ALWAYS INCREASES THE TRAFFIC SAFETY RISKS.
