Toyota Corolla 2002 price in Nigeria, trims, versions, pros, and cons

1. Introduction

Nigerians love Toyota cars; the Camry, Rav4, Avalon, Yaris. We love them and simply adore the Toyota Corolla. The Toyota Corolla is one of the most sold vehicles in the world according to statistics. By 2013, the Corolla had sold 40 million units since 1966 - its first manufacture year, and the best-selling car by 1974. Toyota as a brand is the most searched online in Nigeria. Along with the Toyota Camry, it is Nigeria's most popular car brand.

The Corolla started life as a sub-compact sedan until 1991 when it transitioned into a compact sedan, a status it has maintained till date, making it the best selling car ever internationally.

Called the Toyota Karōra in Japanese, the name ”Corolla” is actually Latin for “small crown”. This is because Toyota named all its sedans after its popular Toyota Crown model. There have been 12 generations of the Corolla ending with the 12th gen corolla hatchback Auris and the station wagon, the Corolla Touring Sports in 2018.

Today, let's be with NaijaToyota reviewing the Toyota Corolla 2002 price, trims, versions, pros, and cons!

2. Why is the Toyota Corolla popular in Nigeria?

  1. Cheap: The Toyota Corolla is a relatively cheap car when compared to its competitors such as the Ford Focus or and the Honda Civic. This makes it an easy choice for small income groups.
  2. Easy to maintain: The Corolla is also very easy to maintain and at very low costs. Since the vehicle does not require frequent, expensive tunes up and servicing, it is the ideal car for developing countries like Nigeria.
  3. Fuel economy: The Corolla is fuel-efficient. The figures given officially are 38 mpg (miles per gallon) on the highway or expressway. This compares very favorably with the Camry’s 34 mpg.
  4. Cheap parts: Cheap and readily available parts are another reason that endears this car to its owners. You don’t need to break the bank every time your mechanic tells you something needs to do with your Corolla.
  5. Resale value: No matter how old a Corolla is, it pretty much still has a second-hand value in Nigeria. This is a great plus that contributes to the car’s popularity, as you can use and sell when you need to upgrade.
  6. Safety: Definitely.
  7. Availability of auto mechanics: Some cars lack adequately trained auto mechanics to handle periodic repairs and servicing. Not the Corolla; there are local mechanics knowledgeable about the Corolla in every nook and cranny of Nigeria.
  8. Durable on Nigerian roads and acclimatized: The Corolla is near to perfect for Nigerian roads and its climate. Nigeria’s roads are not always the smoothest, and this car does a great job of taking all the knocks and still holding together.

3. Trims of the Toyota Corolla 2002

The Corolla 2002 offers 3 trim levels. The base trim CE, the sporty S, and the top of the line LE. The trims come with either 5-speed manual transmission or 3-4 speed auto transmission depending on the trim.

4. Versions of the Toyota Corolla 2002

Though the Toyota Corolla 2002 is one of the most popular Toyota car models you will find on Nigerian streets, most Nigerians are not aware that the Toyota Corolla comes in different versions some of which were never marketed for the African market.

Some of the more popular versions of the Corolla are the Sprinter (badge engineered that later became the Alex), Corolla Ceres hardtop, Sprinter Marino, Corolla Levin (a coupe), and Sprinter Trueno (a hatchback version that became the RunX). Both the Levin and Trueno were replaced by the Auris. The Auris was known by that name only in Japan initially, but recently Toyota introduced a new Auris for the international market.

Another version is the compact MPV named the Corolla Verso which was released in Europe. The fairly well-known Toyota Matrix is actually a version officially known as the Toyota Corolla Matrix.

6. Toyota Corolla 2002 Trivia

The Corolla 2000 has shown amazing staying power since its manufacture. Competitors to the 2002 model like the Chevrolet Prizm have since been discontinued. Both car models were built in the same factory in the US at the same time.

Many banks and government institutions have periodically used the Toyota Corolla as official cars for staff.

The Corolla 2002 offers 3 trim levels. The base trim CE, the sporty S, and the top of the line LE

7. Hits and Misses of the Toyota Corolla 2002

7.1. Hits:

The Corolla is a reliable, low-cost compact sedan suitable for a small family or individual use. It hardly ever requires constant maintenance and is amazingly fuel-efficient. It also has a smooth ride and side airbags, unusual for a compact sedan. You can even augment the fuel economy in the Toyota Corolla 2002 if following these maintenance tips.

7.2. Misses:

The 2002 Corolla is fairly seen as lackluster and lacks the bells and whistles that many have come to expect from a car in its class. Even usually basic extras or features such as Radio cassette, power windows, and air conditioning are all optional in the 2002 Corolla, even in the top of the line trim, LE.  Also, the 2002 model is far from easy on the eyes, and not pretty. It also does not have much cargo space or legroom, though that is expected for a compact sedan.

8. Who needs a Toyota Corolla 2002?

  1. First car owners who are on the lower rung of their careers will find the cheap and easily maintained Corolla a great bargain for a first car. It is easy on the pocket, and very reliable.
  2. A small family of not more than 5 will also find the 2002 model a good choice for a car.  
  3. Also buy the 2002 Corolla for company mid-level executives because it is cheap to maintain and fuel-efficient, thereby reducing the company’s overhead monthly.
  4. The Corolla 2002 will do excellently well for taxi services like Uber or Bolt (formerly Taxify), although you will need the AC option. The fuel economy makes it ideal for maximum profits.
  5. Government institutions are always about saving public funds and the Corolla 2002 will do this quite efficiently with their cheap maintenance and low fuel consumption.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE 2018 TOYOTA CAMRY/ A REVIEW

 I got so lucky last weekend to have driven the 2018 Toyota Camry SE edition given to be my a car dealer friend I met on Instagram. I have thousands of exterior pictures of the present Camry generation on my phone. The XSE trim makes me turn my head whenever it passes on the road. Now, Toyota has introduced the 2020 Camry to TRD (TOYOTA RACING DEVELOPMENT) for a factory redesign on the car and be sold as the highest level trim with The XSE coming in at second from 2020. 

 

The SE trim I drove is the third-highest trim you can get from the 2018 Camry series so yeah! this review is very valid. Toyota Camry has managed to be the second-highest selling Toyota car in Nigeria because of its easy maintenance culture and simple looking design. Right now, the design has shifted from simple to a Lexus type of look. I hope you know Lexus is a subsidiary company to Toyota? here is the truth about the 2018 Toyota Camry from the angle of the SPORTS EDITION trim.

Before we continue, all the trims available on the 2018 Camry are:

HYBRID LE, HYBRID SE, L, LE, SE, XLE and SE.

The exterior has a lot of aerodynamic features just to give it a better grip on the ground as it drives through Nigerian wind that would want to lift the car and make you experience fear of rolling over.

 

 The other trims also have aerodynamic features in place but it's not as pronounced as the one on the SE/XSE trim. That rear diffuser just creates a statement from the rear of which says " I AM NOT YOUR REGULAR CAMRY". rear diffusers only come with the SE/XSE. The optional automatic headlights with high beam LEDs are very sleek and perfectly fit into that front fascia that looks like a spider spreading all its tentacles.

No matter the colour of the CAMRY you want, it comes with a 2 tone exterior design with black as the constant colour across all trims. Black detailing is always a thing to look forward to on cars and the Camry has it's own coming straight from the factory with the lower front bumper grille. Can't believe Toyota didn't fit fog lights on this car.

 The taillights look very beautiful especially with the beautification from the fake air vents on the rear bumper just below the light. This car seats on an 18 inches 2 tone alloy rims(gloss black and chrome). The rims vary from trim to trim.

The base engine on this car is a 2.5 litre 4 cylinder engine coupled to an 8-speed automatic transmission and this union produces 203 hp while the XSE trim harnesses a 3.5l v6 engine to produce 301hp. The base engine has a 32mpg rating for fuel consumption so don't be scared, it is very economical and it even has an ECO driving mode. 

The hybrid comes with a Continuous Variable Transmission and 2 electric motors so that you burn less fuel while driving this car, especially in the city. 

I love the exterior of this car because the design is a very unique one, Toyota put so much work into the design. They wanted to call back all their sports car lover fans with this design and I feel they have succeeded.  

On opening the car with the not so fine keyfob, I noticed something strange. The interior wasn't the type that would make Nigerians scream "MAD O" it was just there. I was expecting a very sleek kind of interior with decorations I have never seen just like how the exterior stood out but honestly, the interior looked just average. The choice of materials used on the interior decoration feels random and not properly mixed and it makes me question why Toyota did that. 

Here is the link to a video I made on my instagram on the features of the  2018 TOYOTA CAMRY FEATURES  

 The centre console has buttons around the infotainment screen with a new feature called "ENTUNE". This car lacks ANDROID CONNECT or APPLE PLAY so the ENSUITE is an app that has a phone version that you need to pair the car and infotainment together. This is very stressful if you ask me, so I would rather just use the Bluetooth connection option and mind my business. 

The steering is well designed with a lot of buttons present as controls for the car. On the steering, there is a voice command button and it was at this point I knew that even with my Nigerian English accent, I could talk to this car to do a lot of things on the infotainment like play music, dial numbers, open apps and ask for directions very cool right? there are a lot of buttons on this car and I am not a big fan of that.

The CAMRY also has ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL that makes you semi-auto pilot this car. It keeps a safe distance between the next car while you do nothing. 

 

I love the way the collision and assistive braking work hand in hand. Once the car detects you are trying to brake suddenly, it shuts off music/infotainment sound playing and starts a warning sound just to make you focus on the road more then it assists by braking for you faster than you would normally brake while displaying on the instrument cluster a red braking sign.

The car also has LANE DEPARTURE ASSIST and ACTVE STEERING ASSIST. 

The suspension on this car damped me well and for a moment, I thought it was air suspension. It drives very smoothly with acceleration doing 0 to 60mph in over 6 seconds. It's not a boring car, so it has sports mode across all trims and a paddle shifter exclusive to the sports trims only. I love the leather-wrapped gear shift lever. 

The sports mode didn't feel more powerful than normal mode but it keeps the RPMs up as you switch between gears while shifting up which is the best way to hit high speeds in this car. The car doesn't sound powerful at all so don't expect any fast car sound with this car. 

 

The visibility from the driver's seat is perfect and the seats are very large and comfortable. The car has a standard amount of room to boast of, the only passenger that might complain is the middle rear seater because I was a little tight there.

 

 The trunk is slightly bigger than previous generations and it opens automatically fully open when you press the button on the remote. 

 

The CAMRY is perfect for Nigerians with families because of space and easy interior controls. This car sells in Nigeria Tokunbo market between 11-14 million nairas. It's a car that would serve you all its purpose without stress and maintenance is available all around you with parts coming into the country daily to the car parts market. So far, this car hasn't been developing a general fault so it's a very safe buy.  

The main competitor of this car is the Honda Accord and I have driven that too so expect a comparison much later.

Pros and Cons of the best sellers in Nigeria: The Toyota Camry

 The Toyota Camry has been a best-selling car for several years in Nigeria. This fact is understandable as at least 4 in every 10 drivers have driven a Toyota Camry at some point in their lives.

Nigerians naturally love Toyota cars because it is assumed “Japanese technology” and on that note, they perceive Toyota cars to be the most durable, reliable, easy to maintain and, most popular on the list, fuel-efficient.

While all the above submissions are not entirely false and as you might already know, every model of a car in the market has the peculiarities that apply to it and it alone. You can click here to see more cars for sale in nigeria

1. Pros of Toyota Camry

In this article, we’ll be focusing on the pros and cons of the Toyota Camry. Loosely put, this refers to reasons you will love a Camry and other reasons why you are likely going to hate it.

Toyota-Camry-angular-front

All models of Toyota Camry are best-sellers in Nigeria

Stay with us as we unveil every pro and con that has been connected with the Toyota Camry over the years.

1.1. Spacious interior

The Toyota Camry is dubbed a midsize car, most models of the Camry seats on an extended wheelbase. What that means is that most Toyota Camry models are a bit longer than other midsize sedans of a similar class.

Toyota-Camry-interior

Toyota Camry models boast of spacious interiors

Also, all Toyota Camry models are equipped with roomy seating capacity for 5 persons including their accompanying loads. Storage cubbies such as cup and place holders also form part of the spacious design of the Toyota Camry. Everyone loves plenty of room for “everything” and this endears Camry as a great midsize car for families.

2.2. Performance

The Toyota Camry comes in four-cylinder and V6 engines which are generally strong and durable. Toyota engines paired with appropriate transmissions produce one of the best engine performances, offering one of the industry best fuel economy ratings and the ability to accelerate from 0-60 mph to be faster than most of its competition.

To be specific, a 2019 Toyota Camry XLE V6 can go 0-60 mph in 6.0 seconds as against a Hyundai Elantra Limited of the same model year which can accelerate 0-60 mph in approximately 9.0 seconds.

Over the years, the Toyota Camry has also metamorphosed from an ordinary four-cylinder family taxi to speedy V6 bots promising a sporty undertone to its drivers.

On the side of fuel efficiency, between the top three Toyota sedans with best economy ratings for 2020, the 2019 Toyota Camry with an EPA rating of 41 mpg highway is in the middle between 2019 Toyota Prius with 53 mpg highway and 2020 Toyota Corolla with 37 mpg highway.

2.3. Maintenance Cost

This pro is top on the list of why Nigerians love Toyota Camry. Its maintenance cost is relatively cheap depending on the model year you own.

This trend has a lot to do with the best-seller status of the Toyota Camry which means its spare parts are readily available in plenteous supply to meet high demand by customers.

Camry-engine

The Toyota Camry generally requires low maintenance cost

Although apart from having low maintenance costs, most Toyota Camry cars hardly break down completely during its productive mileage years.

2.4. Second-hand value

The pros and cons of Toyota Camry reaffirm that its perceived durability status in the global market is not just a myth. There have been confirmed reports of Toyota Camrys which have put 300,000 miles on its odometers and still waxing strong. The implication of this information is that the Toyota Camry has good second-hand value for buyers who cannot afford to buy a brand new version.

It is no news that at least 80% of cars on Nigerian roads were purchased as tokunbo (foreign-used) at a time. This places the Toyota Camry as a highly sought after car in the tokunbo car market.

2.5. Sleek design

In addition to Camry’s spacious interior, it also boasts of a quite sleek exterior. Every generation of the Toyota Camry ever produced came with its own unique design placing it on top position for lovers of sleek looking automobiles.

angular-front-of-the-Toyota-Camry

The recent model Toyota Camry boast of very sleek designs

The 2017- till date models of the Camry were built on a completely new body design never seen before. For instance, the 2018 Toyota Camry was built with TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture) platform.

Design-wise, the recent models of the Toyota Camry began taking a luxury vehicle appearance endearing it to lovers of luxury vehicles

2. Cons of Toyota Camry

Just with everything that has pros, the Toyota Camry has its own fair share of cons for which buyers have experienced dislike for it. Let’s look at what they are below.

2.1. Too plain interior

Most people feel that its interior is too plain and needs a lot of touchups to fit with the expected sophistication of such a highly rated sedan. But, is that really a con one would choose above every other feature? Some other owners argue that the Camry offers a boring experience.

2.2. Left tilt

There have been a number of reports of Camry tilting to he left after a while without having anything to do with the alignment. Drivers observed that their Camrys became a little lower on the left than the right. While some suspect this has something to do with an easily worn coil spring, this claim remains unsubstantiated.

2.3. Easily stolen

Owing to the popular nature of the Toyota Camry, it is a commonly stolen vehicle. Car thieves are always devising means to burgling Toyota Camry. The reason for this is that its engine and other parts are easily sold off into the waiting hands of ready buyers.

If not dismantled, it can be easily refurbished and resold as a fairly used car to an unsuspecting car buyer. When buying a Toyota Camry, it is advised that you take extra care to do due diligence, especially when buying a non-brand new one.

3. Conclusion

From our discussion of pros and cons of Toyota Camry, you can see that the Toyota Camry is a great choice for drivers of every class. Whatever spec you might be looking for in a modern sedan can easily be found in one Toyota Camry or another. Information on Toyota model reviews and pricing are also readily available to help you make an informed buy.

2010 Toyota Venza offered some really high pecks, as well as dropped the ball in some areas. Still it is a solid car that still stands tall regardless. However, lets highlight the Pros and Cons of models of the 2010 offering of Toyota Venza.

Pros

  • Good EPA Fuel Economy Rating: This lovely car possessing qualities of the Toyota Highlander still delivers fuel economy numbers that are just impressive. The Front Wheel Drivetrain I-4 engine trim comes with a stated fuel economy of 21/29 mpg for city/highway respectively while the All Wheel Drivetrain of the same engine variant delivers 20/28 mpg for city/highway repectively. On the other hand, the V6 engine trims with Front Wheel Drive and All Wheel Drives gives rating of 19 City / 26 Hwy and 18 City / 25 Hwy respectively. 
  • Enough Space for Everyone: There is more than enough space for everyone, with amble leg room for both rear seat and front seat passengers, along with adequate head room no matter where you are seated. This means passengers can easily get in and step out of this car with so much ease and if involved in long distance trips, the cramps you may feel will definitely not be as a result of cramped seats.
  • Attractive Exterior Styling: This car is just so fine, with tall and handsome with neat smooth curves here and there, no wonder the Venza is the toast of the ladies. Its just endearing to look at.
  • Very Comfy Interior design: 2010 Toyota Venza has an interior you would expect from a Toyota Brand. The seats are covered with clothe materials while the cushion is just as soft and inviting. The dashboard area is carefully crafted with the entertainment system place appropriately for easy access for both the driver and the front passenger. The instrument cluster are bold and clear, meaning the driver won't struggle to read off what is displayed. Arm rest is fitted for the front seats which is an extra peck.
  • Reliability: Generally speaking, 2010 Toyota Venza is good value for money, as the car tends to retain its sound mechanical state as a result of the high production standard employed in building this car. The higher trims pose even better reliabilty ratings.

Cons

  • No Third Row Seat: For a car this Big, you would expect a third row seat, this though is lacking but that is compensated for by the extra luggage space it offers.
  • Wind Noise: Owners of the 2010 Toyota Venza have reported high wind noise when the car travels at high speed especially if the back glasses are down.
  • Steering Noise: This is one big off for the 2010 Toyota Venza, there seems to be a rattling noise coming from the steering column which also affects the steering feel of the car. Most owners of this car have had to completely change the steering column due to this problem.
  • Road Noise: The cars suspension system seems to give way too soon, meaning that a lot more vibration and noise filters into the cabin. 

Conclusion

Toyota Venza is just that kind of vehicle that won't just go away, in fact rumors even has it that Toyota may just be bringing back the beloved Venza sooner than we ever thought. So, if you can lay your hands on one, don't hesitate, go get it already. You can find top pick listings of 2010 Toyota Venta on the Naijauto Car Sales Page.

In 2008 Toyota began an intense marketing drive to promote its new ride. As you would expect, our appetite got wet and could'nt wait to meet this new car, especially as it was coming from the Toyota who have built a glowing reputation for its self with offerings like the Toyota Corolla and Camry. So much speculation pushed the auto media to a frenzy, some said it will surely be an SUV while other called it a Crossover. All that came to an exalted end as the All New Toyota Venza was presented to the public at the North America Auto Show in January 2008.

In all honesty, the Venza was neither and SUV nor was it a Crossover, it actually was something in between. To offer a better idea of what the Venza design was, the then Toyota Division General Manager Robert Carter said and i quote "We saw buyers that were sitting on the fence when choosing between an SU.V. and a car,". It could be referred to as a tall sedan, with the functionality of an SUV and the size of a Crossover. The car was so well crafted that it earned solid reviews across the whole industry and oh it became the ladies favourite. Now lets take a closer look at the interior of the 2010 version this hansome piece of engineering craft.






The Toyota Venza first View was at the North America Auto Show of 2008

The front passenger seats offers a 4 way adjustment control while the driver seat can be adjusted in 8 ways, with even the rear head restraint allowing for 3 way adjustment. The rear seats come in the 60-40 configuration with front and rear seat arm rest avialable.




The seats are made with fine quality clothe materials

The dashboard area is just cool, dressed in fine wood trim that gives it a standard Toyota appearance. Four Air conditioning vents are clearly obvious when you look in at the dashboard, two boxed vents man the extremes of the front panels while the infotainment panel houses the other two, standing either side of the panel. The infotainment panel with its knobs and controls are perfectly positioned for easy access for both the driver and the front passenger. The panel also reveals the presence of AM/FM satelite radio, CD player with an option for DVD in higher trims, audio jacks and USB port. The higher trims also come with an LCD display screen which is DVD compatible.

On the other hand, the instrument cluster is just large enough, with clear and very visible display.The instrument cluster screen is fully support with LED technology that makes is inviting and easy to use even in the night.

Buying Toyota Sienna 2005: Be prepared for these common problems

Vehicles are machines that most definitely need serious attention, and owning a 2005 Toyota Sienna in Nigeria should mean that you are aware of the common problems that occur with this minivan. If you plan to buy a new minivan or you own one but have not learnt about the issues they have, it is important that you read about Toyota Sienna 2005 problems carefully. The kind of problems we see with this 2005 Sienna surprises everyone especially since it delivers a comfortable driving experience and has a quiet cabin.

Common Toyota Sienna 2005 problems

Let us discuss briefly on the problems that have been reported by many customers from their experience with the Toyota Sienna 2005 model, reported by carproblemzoo.com:

Interior Hardware Problems

The most obvious problem inside the cabin of this Toyota minivan is the cracking dashboard on the side where the front passenger is seated. A major problem here is with the seats where complaints say that the seatbelts unlatch on their own, and the seat warmer burns the passenger or seat material. The infotainment volume knob and faulty interior lights are other problems to look out for during inspections.

Steering Problems




Many of these buttons and knobs could go faulty easily

The complaints concerning this problem include rust and leakage of power steering fluid from the shaft and clicking or grinding noise while turning the steering wheel. This problem can be easily fixed by an expert mechanic, and it should not cost customers so much money.

Brake Failure

Many reports of premature wearing capture that the braking system of the Toyota Sienna 2005 model fails intermittently. The vehicle stability control (VSC) also interferes while the driver attempts a turn or curve without the brakes. Some experts say that the minivan is slightly heavy for the type of brakes it has, and customers will need to have their brakes checked and replaced every 3 months.

Suspension Problems




This front suspension strut is what makes the noise in the Toyota Sienna 2005 front suspension

Among the complaints related to Toyota Sienna 2005 problems is the noise from the front suspension struts. The customer has to replace the suspension struts when this happens, and these should last for about 5 years.

Electrical Problems

Many complaints in this section highlight a problem with the power sliding doors, error indicators on the dashboard like airbag, VSC, and battery discharge signals. There are a few other electrical issues, but these ones highlighted are the most common for this minivan model. The errors can be checked and cleared out by an advanced technician using the car scanners.

Tire and Wheel Problems



The wheels and tires of Toyota Sienna 2005 needs regular maintenance

Customers have complained about a grinding sound which the hub makes when the car is accelerating and the wheels are being turned simultaneously. The 2005 Toyota Sienna has also been recalled for spare tires issues, and the car tires suffer uneven wear during use. Customers need to inspect their tires and spares as often as every week.

Exterior Hardware Problem

Under this section of Toyota Sienna 2005 problems, complaints have been made about the front grille falling off, broken rear wiper and the side mirrors can break so easily. It is best to drive carefully and at safe speeds with this minivan in order to have these components staying intact.

The 2005 Toyota Sienna model almost gets the worst ratings after the 2004 model which you should avoid; we recommend models from 2007 forward (Check out Used Toyota Sienna for sale in Nigeria buying guide for Nigerians).

The 2010 models announced sometime towards the end of 2009 were offered in four Trim Levels with the main differences being the engine type and the drive train utilized in building the vehicle. For instance, the base trim came with a 2.7 Liter Inline 4 cylinder engine with a Front Wheel drive train. Other trims included the 2.7 Liter Inline 4 cylinder engine with an All-Wheel drive train, the 3.5 Liter V6 engine with a Front-Wheel Drive train and finally the 3.5 Liter V6 engine with an All-Wheel Drive train.

The 2010 was not so much different from the 2009 model except for a change in the floor Mat across the trims, which now sported carpet floor mats for both front and back seats compared to the rubber floor mat in the previous year models. Virtually every other stuff remained the same, the engine power remained the same pumping out 182 hp and 182 lb-ft for the 2.7 Liter I4 engines and 268 hp and 246 lb-ft for the 3.5 Liter V6 engine.

COMMON PROBLEMS AND CONS FOUND IN TOYOTA COROLLA

https://naijauto.com/toyota-corolla-for-sale




The Corolla is designed to perform optimally, but once in a while it runs into some issues. Despite the fact that it is known for its reliability, dependability and efficiency, few issues are still associated with this model and this cannot be ignored.


Below are the few common problems and cons typically associated with this brand-model;



TOYOTA HIGHLANDER COMMON PROBLEMS


STEERING COLUMN FAILURE



This happens when you start hearing a noise from a turning steering wheel which could make the steering column seized immediately and cause the vehicle to veer to the left while being operated at an average mph which can cause the vehicle to crash into any available barrier. The steering wheel will be difficult to turn and the power steering warning indicator will illuminate. When this occurs, it is time to change the steering rack.


RATTLING NOISE AT HIGH SPEED



When driving at about 70mph you will notice rattling noise around the vehicle and this is caused by broken plastic parts around the intake manifold. This can be stopped by removing the broken plastics from the intake manifold.


CAR VIBRATES AT HIGH SPEED



This is caused by over-tightened handbrake and the vibration occur when driving at about 60-70mph. To fix this, make sure the handbrake is adjusted.


MASS AIR FLOW SENSOR FAILURE



This happens when you are experiencing rough idling or poor performance in the engine. This can be solved by cleaning the MAF sensor.

RUST AROUND THE SUNROOF



It is a common problem for open roof cars, there is always rust around the edges of metal sunroofs and this can be solved by cleaning around the roof or replacing the roof metal is the rust is really bad.


PASSENGER AIRBAG PROPELLANT FAILURE



This happens when a propellant rapidly degrades over time due to unstable temperatures and excessive humidity when the passenger airbag deploys causing it to it’ll rupture and allowing metal fragments to fly through. The only solution is to replace the passenger airbag inflator.


CRACKED ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)



This happens when the circuit board inside the ECM cracks. This leads to harsh transmission shifting, engine stalling, or engine failing to start. This should be replaced as soon as possible.

Excessive Oil Consumption



This is caused by worn piston rings (oil sludge buildup and low oil levels between oil changes). Piston ring change is the only solution and this should be done asap.
