Power Train

I HAVE A 2001 TOYOTA 4RUNNER. THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL LEAKS OIL THROUGH PIN HOLES, AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, MINE IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. THE CAR BARELY HAS 100,000 MILES ON IT, AND THE DIFFERENTIAL SHOULD LAST AS LONG AS THE CAR. THE RISK IS THAT IT WILL RUN DRY, SEIZE, AND THE REAR WHEELS WILL LOCK UP CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECT BY TOYOTA REDUCING THE COST OF THEIR MATERIAL THE CONSTRUCT THE DIFFERENTIAL HOUSING WITH. *TR

I SAT IN THE REAR SEAT OF A 2010 TOYOTA 4RUNNER. I AM 6'1". I HAD CLEARANCE ABOVE MY HEAD. HOWEVER, THE ROOF IS DOMED ONLY ABOVE THE SEAT. WHEN I LEANED FORWARD MY HEAD CONTACTED THE ROOF. I BELIEVE SERIOUS HEAD INJURIES ARE POSSIBLE DUE TO THE INTERIOR DESIGN OF THIS VEHICLE FOR TALLER PASSENGERS. *TR
