| Description of the problem | Purchased vehicle sept 2013 with approx 44,000 miles on it. Around april 2014 started to hear sounds like something was loose inside the car. Sounded metallic. It was due for service at 50,000 miles so i took it in. Mentioned the knocking metallic sound and they said it was the moonroof. I couldn't quite figure how they know that so soon but i couldn't leave it that day all day, just for the service. I brought it back today and they said it was definitely the moonroof. It was out of warranty so it cost me $248 to fix. When i came home i looked it up on the toyota forum and, bingo, there were numerous complaints from owners of various years. So that's why they knew what it was right away. There are also a number of complaints here with the safer. Gov site. |
