Defect Description:
VISIBILITY/WIPER
Potential Consequences:
With the rear seat entertainment system in use, the rear visibility is completely blocked in conjunction with the standard rear view mirror. This is a major design defect and is avoidable with available options that should be standard. Without being able to utilize all possible ways to view around the vehicle, Toyota has put its owners, occupants, and fellow drivers at unnecessary risk. An easy remedy is Toyota retrofitting and including going forward their digital rear view mirror.

Defect Description:
SEATS
Potential Consequences:
When the 3rd-row folding seats are down and stored and the breaks are applied suddenly the seat will release and attempt to return a nonstored position. I had a box of water on top of the seat to keep it from moving. Unfortunately when I breaked the box moved and the seat left the stored position and crushed the water bottles. If I had had a pet back there they would have been injured.
