Exterior Lighting
10/09/2023
Headlight / Dashboard design of this vehicle is defective. With DRL lights only on, the dashboard fully lights up, misleading a driver into believing they have their headlights and taillights turned on. This kind of defective design is not limited to Toyota, can also be seen on many other Honda and Nissan vehicles. This needs to be addressed urgently, as many drivers drive without correct illumination at night, and they are a hazard to other drivers.

Power Train, engine, fuel/propulsion System

When driving in slowed traffic the car would not accelerate for 3-5 seconds. No warning lights appeared. I had slowed to 5mph and upon pressing the gas pedal the car had no response and put me in danger as all traffic around me accelerated and the Venza would not respond to gas pedal. I removed foot from pedal and tried again and after sustained gas pedal for 3 seconds the car slowly resumed movement.

Vehicle Speed Control, unknown Or Other, fuel/propulsion System

There is an acceleration issue that only happens sporadically. From a stopped position (stop sign/stop light) when I let go of the break and start acceleration with the gas pedal, it doesn't work. Even if I press down more in the gas pedal, it merely creeps- as if it were in neutral. It happens with turns or going straight. I have no clue what could be causing it. The breaks still work, and the gas pedal starts working again after about approx 10 or 15 ft of rolling. When the gas begins working again its a smooth engagement- no jarring or revving. And it only happens sporadically, maybe 8 times since I bought it in 2022. I have had it looked over at the dealership twice and they found nothing and are not willing to fix this issue- as they say there isn't one. I worry greatly that this will result in a crash.

Visibility/wiper
11/17/2023
RECENTLY PURCHASED WITH 35,000 MILES AS A CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE. AT 36,000 MILES, HAVE NOTICED A CRACKED WINDSHIELD THAT RUNS THE WIDTH OF THE WINDSHIELD JUST ABOVE WHERE THE WIPERBLADES SIT. THERE IS NO VISIBLE MARK ON THE OUTSIDE FROM ANYTHING HITTING IT. AFTER LOOKING ON LINE, I HAVE FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE VENZA.
