  • As of today, there has been a safety recall issued on many 2024 Toyota grand Highlanders. Please watch the video for an overview of the issue as well as something I noticed during my almost 9 months of ownership.
    Feel free to leave comments from your experiences or if you have some insight into the safety recall that I didn’t go over in this video . #toyotagrandhighlander #toyotahighlanderhybrid

    Hmm sounds like this vehicle has a few issues that certain owners and company are discovering ,that are not good and not at all good for the reputation of Toyota . How can we trust the New vehicles they are coming out with such as the hydrogen fuel cell car . This is a serious matter for sure . Id be trading it in rather than risk being killed or seriously injured . thanks for bring the issue up along with the key fob, this shouldn't happen and doesn't say much for their quality control .

    I’m sorry? But how many “issues and incidents” will it take for people to realize Toyota ain’t any more reliable than any other manufacturer?!? Let’s drop the pretense, shall we?

      Toyota used to be #1 in the planet for reliability. That’s a fact for sure, but in recent years though and especially this one, things are changing in a huge way!

      Quality has gone to shit. It is not a reliable manufacturer. 2020 highlander safety recalls for passenger airbag still open

    I can totally agree on the thin metal. I went to buy a GH and one of the things that shocked me, was when I closed the doors you can see how the door panel shake . I never experienced that before. I made a deposit for a 2024 GH and I am seriously considering skipping at least the 2024 model.

      Yes, it is definitely a real thing. My Ford truck, our 2018 Corolla even, 09 Mercedes, none of them feel like they’re made of flimsy metal. I haven’t seen what the previous years standard Highlander METAL was like but it’s possible that this may just be a grand Highlander issue. I know Toyota Drive trains are invincible for the most part, with the exception of this new one, only time will tell. But the body quality is definitely something to think about before purchasing. We looked into a Mazda CX 90 before getting this one and the body panels felt proper and structural. So we were surprised to see how the medical quality was on this one when it showed up, and when we purchased it, there wasn’t any demo models available to see what the build quality was like so we had to wait until it showed up. Aside that and a few minor issues, it’s been a good vehicle.

      Yeah they’re a great car from what it seems. As a first model year though only time will tell. Especially with the new 2.4T engine

    Did you notice the extreme turning of the steering wheel to the right? Looks like that's what causes the airbag to also twist and allow the head to move into that area. I wonder if that happens if someone is holding the steering wheel.

    • @Erikzapp
      @Erikzapp  8 дней назад

      Good eye! I did not notice that. It’s crazy because the car has a feature, lane keep assist where it actually keeps you in the lane and if you get a little bit close to a line, it will steer you abruptly back into the lane instead of smoothly and it can be very, annoying at times. Wonder if that has anything to do with it

      @@Erikzapp you mean like it was trying to avoid the collision? I’m not sure why else it would go to the right so fast.

    • @Erikzapp
      @Erikzapp  6 дней назад +1

      @@RetiredSince2024 well in my GH, the lane keep assist senses a line of the road on whichever side your closest to and abruptly steers you in the opposite direction. Even after about 8 months owning the car, it still shocks me to this day because you have to counter steer the auto steer the car does. Maybe that is what happened in the collision video. Apparently though the airbag falls out of position tho when the window is open resulting in the fatal head blow. Aside that there are no reports to say if it would be a different outcome when the window was closed.
