2013 Toyota Venza Complaints

I CURRENTLY DRIVE A 2013 VENZA, UPON ACCELERATION THE TRANSMISSION STUTTERS. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE TOYOTA CAMRY WITH THE SAME EXACT ENGINE, BUT NOT ON THE VENZA. I AM ALSO WRITING TOYOTA ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IT IS JUST GETTING WORSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 TOYOTA VENZA. UPON ENTERING THE VEHICLE, WATER WAS DISCOVERED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE FLOORMAT. THE CONTACT HEARD WATER SWISHING AROUND UNDERNEATH THE DASHBOARD. IN ADDITION, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER (BREDEMANN TOYOTA, 1301 W DEMPSTER ST, PARK RIDGE, IL 60068, (847) 655-1435) ADVISED THE CONTACT TO SCHEDULE A DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR APPOINTMENT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS OPENED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE EPS (ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING) WARNING LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. THE NAVIGATION SCREEN GOES BLANK AND THE SATELLITE RADIO TURNS OFF AND THEN IT STARTS BACK UP. IT HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN ONE DAY.

PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JANUARY 2014 AND WITH LESS THAN 40K MILES THE DOOR ACTUATOR ALREADY FAILED (DRIVER DOOR AND REAR DOOR PASSENGER SIDE). I JUST GOT IT FIXED AND TOYOTA DID NOT CHARGE ME FOR THE PARTS BUT I WAS CHARGED FOR THE DIAGNOSTICS AND THE LABOR. NOW ANOTHER DOOR ACTUATOR FAILED (PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR). I COULDN'T SEE ANY RECALLS ABOUT THE DOOR ACTUATOR BUT HAVING 3 OF THEM FAILED IS JUST NOT NORMAL. I'M NOT SURE IF I'M THE ONLY ONE HAVING PROBLEMS LIKE THIS.

WHILE DRIVING ON A WET 50 DEGREE NIGHT IN JANUARY 12 T AND LOST TOTAL VISABILITY WHEN ENTERING LYNDON VERMON GOING AROUND 20 MPH AND RAN INTO A TELEPHONE POLE AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY HUSBAND, THE DRIVER, SUSTAINED SERIOUS INJURIES INCLUDING A BROKEN STERNUM AND 5 BROKEN RIBS AND CONSIDERABLE INTERNAL BLEEDING. THE POLICE SAID THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED.
