Your problems are why I have preferred Toyota cars and trucks over the years. I have never had to do anything other than scheduled maintenance with the 4 Toyota trucks and 3 Toyota cars and put more than a million combined miles on them.
I cannot say this about the Chevy, Dodge, and Ford trucks and SUV's that I have owned. Even minor problems required leaving the truck off at the dealer and sometimes multiple trips for the same problem. A while back I read about Jeep Cherokee owners having to make on average 8 trips to the dealers for repairs during the first year of ownership. The Toyota trucks have been rated number one in this area for the last 5 years in a row by JD Powers.
My current truck is a GM diesel but if Toyota sold a full size diesel powered truck I would have bought instead without a second thought.
I see.
We have a 2007 Toyota Matrix, bought new. Lot's of issues... electronic, sensors, etc...ie: ECM replaced among other items. Waiting for the recall notices right now...for the airbag issue and the electrical fault in the electric window opener switch.
Are you saying with your million combined miles you've never...ever had any issues. What about all the Toyota recalls ?
We had a 2009 Matrix we bought new. Never had an issue. Gave it to my daughter and grandson last summer and still no issues. Only recall was for the 'sticky accelerator' garbage which was a bunch of govt manufactured beans.
